Men Without Women [Text started somewhere in spring 2017, preserved in original, without any changes] Haruki Murakami is a specific beast in the world of prose. People experience him either as a genius or as literature’s oddball. But the fact is his works leave no one indifferent. I consider myself his admirer. For me his…
Arnold I’m quite sure of one thing, and that’s that Arnold Schwar… Schwarz… Shravzen… well you already know who I mean… he surely influenced how the documentary about his life would go, by the principle “what I did badly, we’ll only minimally cover, and what’s good, well we’ll really spread out on that.” And despite…
With newer domestic authors (not necessarily younger ones)… you really never know with them. When you ask someone for their opinion about them (authors), you will mostly get a shake of the head, along with comments (or perhaps grumbles): “These days everyone wants to be a writer”, “they all write in the same style”,…
Meditations “The human soul wrongs itself when it allows itself to be overpowered by pleasure or pain” – Marcus Aurelius For those who perhaps don’t know (or went to school long ago and forgot), Marcus Aurelius Antoninus was a Roman emperor in the period from 161 to 180 AD. He’s the last ruler from…
John Wick 3 “Si vis pacem, para bellum” – “If you want peace, prepare for war” (Latin saying… also Winston’s comment in the film “John Wick 3”) Ugh, brother John Wick really doesn’t have it easy. He killed Santino D’Antonio (Camorra), who after his sister’s death became a member of the “High Table” Council,…
Hellsing Ultimate “The Bird of the Hermes is my name, eating my wings to make me tame” – Alucard Let me tell you right away at the beginning, I think there’s no need to watch original “Hellsing,” because “Hellsing Ultimate” will cover original too, and moreover is more faithful adaptation of eponymous manga compared…
When it comes to the live-action world of the DC Universe, there’s a sense that things are (perhaps slowly) moving in a better direction, especially once you step outside the standard superhero boundaries. And when you do that, you create something that’s not only interesting to superhero fans but also to film buffs in…
In principle, the terms FOMO and FOBO (soon about their meanings) aren’t something new in our world. It could be said they’ve existed since humans have existed. But I think we became truly aware of them in the last 30 years, with the appearance of mobile phones and social networks (and especially with social…
The Sandman “If dreams disappear, humanity will disappear too” – Morpheus/Dream The news that “The Sandman,” Neil Gaiman’s cult comic/graphic novel, would be adapted into a live-action series was met with support and enthusiasm from fans… accompanied by mild apprehension about how it would turn out, since “Netflix” took the reins for making the…
The Ride of a Lifetime People apparently had high expectations for Robert “Bob” Iger and his business/CEO memoir “The Ride of a Lifetime.” I did too. I had some inexplicably good feeling about this book. And that’s why I made maximum effort to avoid reading any (both domestic and foreign) reviews of the book until…
