We could write a script for a Sundance award-winning film: Nils was a good-natured, hard-working and willing Community Manager, who everyone started to get on his bad side because he didn't publish Beauty Shots. Nobody realised that he didn't actually publish Beauty Shots because there were almost no editions to publish them in, but that didn't matter to Psychos and fans of the physical format in general. Poor Nils was tortured with complaints every day. Until one day, an English guy made a joke in a forum: Nils doesn't publish the beauty shots but... has all them printed on A3 in his room. That day, a horde of angry fans gathered on the roads, at train stations and airports to go to Nils' house and find out if it's true. But they didn't have time. That day poor Nils put his little nose out of the window, early that morning, and saw his house surrounded by people, 500 or a thousand angry people shouting. They wanted to kill him! Next thing he knew, someone threw a burning coakctail out of a window, and his house started to burn. Poor Nils jumped out of the back window, and started running through a green field full of bushes and trees, running like a squirrel! This is the plot: the film is about Nils' escape, like The Walking Dead, but instead of Zombies, something worse: Psychos thirsty for editions! They finally manage to capture him, and when they are about to kill him by hitting him over the head with a UHD Club wood or DP edition, .... Nils open one eye on his bed and wakes up!! He is at home, calm, happy, and through the window he can see that no one is there. He smiles, puts on his Psycho bathrobe (it has to be made!!), his red Oz slippers, and goes down to the kitchen. He warms up a coffee, grabs a muffin, and leaves with the coffee in one hand, biting the muffin in the other. He arrives at the entrance to the house, and wipes his hand on the muffin against his bathrobe. He stretches out his thumb and puts it on a fingerprint reader on the wall. Suddenly, the wooden door in front of him opens by itself. Nils mumbles something, opens the door, and walks down the dark wooden stairs with his coffee held by the small plate underneath. He reaches the bottom, turns on the light, looks over to a rolling armchair in the middle of the room, smiles, and walks quietly over to it. He sits down, takes a deep breath, closes his eyes, and smiles again. He is at ease. He opens his eyes, brings the cup of coffee to his mouth, and sips some. It's really good. There he leans back, cup resting on his legs, swivels the chair back and forth, and smiles, satisfied. A special look. Proud. He looks this way and that again, and looks back at all the Beauty Shots he has never published, printed on A3 and stuck on the wall. Fade to black. End.

Good morning, everybody. Is it just that I've become a grumpy, manic guy... or are there hardly any new collector's editions being announced?

Good morning!!! Yesterday my team won, and I have realized that we are a strange fan base: we prefer to take risks and lose by attacking, with players from here, than to be more defensive and use players from outside who have a bigger name. If we are not going to win any trophy, at least we will enjoy it. It's a very Psycho way of think, like when you say: if I'm not going to get rich, at least add another GB! Have a nice week! -
I think it's marvellous. Besides, Lanthimos doesn't need a big circus to make a good film, he knows how to be grandiloquent, but also minimalist.

I couldn't have described it better. And I don't have much time to be able to do it either. But I work hard to buy time, and someday I'll have a good week.

Thank you very much for telling us about your experience. You have reminded me that I haven't seen her for a long time. I have to do it again. But I need the right day. To be alone, with plenty of free time, rested, and an open mind. It will be a good day.

It has to be seen differently. If he didn't, we would miss him. If one day we don't read it, it won't be a good sign for anyone. Long live your weather reports for many years to come, and may we be able to read them! -

Hi everybody. Today, after a long dat working so much, I'm like @Heywoodmoutaw Too much in short time... I need holidays or a new exciting relase soon! Good night. -
I'm not interested in Eurovision, but this year there's a big scandal in Spain about the lyrics of the Spanish song, and I'm going to sit down with popcorn and enjoy it. Political fuss, discussions, debates in the newspapers.... Anyway, if you're interested in high literature and Eurovision, here's a chance to enjoy it. Don't ask me to translate "Zorra" or I'll get banned. The rest is subtitled in German. By the way, in other languages the video also translates "Zorra", but not in German. That's curious. I'm sure there's a reason.

Hi everybody! I hope you have had a great day. And if not, and you have had to work as hard as I have today, don't worry. There is something fundamental in your lives that you should not forget. Tomorrow is Friday!!!

I love Lanthimos films more and more. Maybe it's time to start to release some collector editions about his work...

Good afternoon! Carrie Coon, one of us! 🤘 Obviously, it's a sign of good taste, artistic sensibility, and being extraordinarily cool. Have a nice afternoon & evening!

I understand what you mean. Nowadays there is a lot of talk about Marvel type cinema, but there is also a smug and pedantic cinema of people trying to look cool; empty cinema, like those musicians more concerned about breaking guitars than having their own sound. However, for some reason that I don't know, we are entering a good era of auteur cinema, maybe because whenever there is a strong trend, its opposite also appears. But, obviously, this also has to be prioritized, selected. And this coincides precisely after the success of Barbie/Oppeneimer, which points the way to different films that can also be successful. A path that must be recovered. However, I believe that the industry, led by financiers, must understand that not everything can be billion-dollar blockbusters. That demanding that is reckless, even for blockbusters. As for star-directors, it doesn't bother me. In fact, I've always been a big fan of the director policy, that Hollywood that was lost in the late '70s. But it is true that if you put together a star-director, and that artifical attempt to look cool, you can generate a good disaster. -

It is an entertaining movie. I liked that mix of revenge and comedy. Good recommendation.
