Mesto za one koji su u potrazi za dobrom kafom, knjigom, filmom, serijom, anime i energijom
Serbia, God Help You The fictitious stranger told (wrote?) us through letters to his people how unusual Serbia is to him. No doubt, we recognized ourselves in most of those letters (“Almost all?” – note from subconscious). Is there anything else to tell about us and our mentality in a humorous way? It turned out…
Katanagatari There are some series that are truly specific in every respect, and because of that draw you into their world. One such series is “Katanagatari” (or in translation “Sword Story” or “Tale of Swords”). Meet an unusual duo wandering Japan somewhere during the Edo period (1603-1868). Togame is a self-proclaimed “Strategist,” one eccentric and…
Siddhartha I’ve already (long ago) mentioned that, as we change, grow up and mature, we also discover some new dimension and messages in books and films that were previously hidden from us. However, it also seems there’s some truth that some works simply need to be read as “older,” for you to truly catch (or…
The Last Unicorn The novel “The Last Unicorn” by writer Peter S. Beagle (winner of numerous awards for the fantasy genre) is, like the titular being, a very unusual creature. You start with light reading and, as time passes, you realize the book is increasingly drawing you into its world and enchanting you, and along…
Warrior of the Sun I couldn’t help but (bitterly) smile a bit at the fates of scientists and innovators. It seems they struggle “against windmills” their whole lives. This especially applies to discoveries that can be in service of all humanity. Tesla, for example, wanted to provide everyone with unlimited (and cheap) energy (electricity) and…
Oppenheimer “Prometheus stole fire from the gods and gave it to man. For this he was chained to a rock and tortured for all eternity” (opening sentence of the film) Science and its development is what indebted humanity and enabled it to progress and initiate revolutions of smaller or larger scales. Scientists have always…
Tesla: Inventor of the Modern Era “I don’t regret that others stole my ideas, but I regret they don’t have their own” – Nikola Tesla When it comes to Nikola Tesla, we can all agree he had a very interesting life as a scientist. A man who was (and for many things still is)…
John Wick 4 “Friendship means little when it’s convenient” – Shimazu (John Wick 4) Wow, we’ve reached “John Wick 4″… someone might think “now it can only recycle old material, can’t be better than previous parts.” It turned out it can. “John Wick 4” is the best part so far! 🙂 Brother…
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,…
John Wick 2 “You stabbed the devil in the back and forced him back into the life that he had just left. You incinerated the priest’s temple. Burned it to the ground. Now he’s free of the marker, what do you think he’ll do? He had a glimpse of the other side and he embraced…
