Ehhh, while it's true that some vids nowadays have captions, this isn't always the case. Plus, consider that a lot of content on the internet isn't necessarily in the language Kids think in (when they don't come from anglo-speaking countries). And, once again anecdotal experience but I have to factor that in, "digital natives" don't seem to communicate in written form as much as we do. Blame voice messages, I guess.
Of course I don't think manga is bad, literature Is literature after all. As I said, it's just that the interest in the material Is filtered through an appreciation of formerly consumed visual media, and even then It remains "an interest", rather than something they actively look for. Monetary factors have also to be looked in: not every country can afford to print out Shonen Jump.
As a teacher in lower secondary school, kids don't do any of that. They read physical media sporadically, and the main kind of digital media they consume is through IG and TikTok, furtherly filtered by the algorithm to appeal to their interest. The only kind of excitement I see in their eyes when talking reading is when talking manga, but even then it's mostly because they got there through anime (dubbed, so not even with subs) first. Kids don't read half as often as we did twenty years ago, and teachers get the blame for trying to push some sense in them through lecture.
Please do yourself a favor and read the original graphic novel this slop Is based upon. McGuire's Here is stunning, innovative, incredible and imaginative. Which makes me even mas when thinking it's being turned into a movie.
As someone else said, it's all about creating interesting posts first. I know that's the most difficult part, but the community needs to organically grow in quality of posts first (not that those that are already in here are bad, it's just that they don't create much engagement).
I believe it's more a matter of intent. The whole movie was sold to audiences as a portrayal of what America would look like under martial law and yadda yadda, while Garland seems more fascinated and preoccupied with the role of journalism and the meaning of images (photography but, as expected, cinema) in the context of narrations and in what perspectives those narrations gain through context.
Italian here. Luckily it seems like the place I live now has been barely touched by Boris, but my wife's parents are stuck at home with flooded streets and whatnot. Hope it's not going to be as bad as last year.
just open a window, my dude.
Luigi / Duck Hunt. What the hell does that mean?
I believe it's either The Blues Brothers or 2001.
Durov has been blacklisted in Russia because he refused to cooperate with Putin's government on several occasions.

Oggi esce al cinema in Giappone "How Do You Live?", il nuovo film di Hayao Miyazaki

Le serate estive si fanno più calde, le zanzare ronzano, i gelati si squagliano e i pixel degli schermi si sbruciacchiano.
Personalmente, di recente ho avuto modo di guardare Bellissima di Luchino Visconti, con una straordinaria Anna Magnani e un Walter Chiari tutto da insultare. Per quanto riguarda le serie, io e la mia partner abbiamo iniziato I'm a Virgo di Boots Riley, che forse qualcuno di voi ricoderà per i suoi dischi con i The Coup o per il film Sorry to Bother You. E voi?
