abduleez1: The Housemaid (2010).........8/10 Language: Korean
I came in for the er0tic!sm and pristine nüdity based on the fact that this pic has been sitting in my watchlist for about 5yrs now; I got way more nuance and complexity than I bargained for..... Now this got me curious how the 1960 original version played like as that was what I initially wanted to watch but the gap in the era and probably the dated tech in film production made me choose the modern version.
Premise: centres around a pregnant housewife needing a maid. Maid gets employed but h@wny_ husband grows attracted to maid and impregnates her while at it. Wife finds out and hatches a plan with her w!cked mom to get rid of the illegitimate baby.
South Koreans have just nailed this theme: complexities of interpersonal relationships, revenge, the social divide between the rich and the poor.
The undertones of the movie just highlights the maxim: "The strong shall take from the weak" and puts at the forefront how the rich and powerful exploit and abuse people of lower social status for their own gain. And goes on to show how helpless and lonely the poor feels in the hopes of restitutionbecause the rich somewhat wins anyways and go on living their life like nothing happened at the end.
It's a dark twisted commentary about how life doesn't always serve justice (or so as we would expect it). Karma seems to be what the poor hopes for in the cycle of life helping them do what they're afraid of doing themselves to the elites who've wronged them. Life ain't fair.
What begins as a salacious er0t!c tale with some high risk dopamine rush slowly descends into actually reading in between the lines to understand the themes, sub-plots and message the director/writer was trying to pass across.
One of the purely erotic films to make me think after watching. Very unexpected ending. Bonus points for featuring one of the hottest er0t!c scenes and greatest brezz I've seen on film. I loved the cinematography, lighting and color grading of this. It s£düces you to the story as well irrespective of what the actors do. 🤤
In essence, The Housemaid (2010) is Parasite but for h@wny_ people. It is about the insulation of the "rich" and how they can mess up a "poor" person's life. Classism at its peak.
Revolting.Ugly.Nauseating.Shameless (RUNS)..... that's how the house manager described the family.
AirBere: Bellingham, Tcho and Arda? Hmmm. Only Arda can dominate the ball there if that's the starting midfield. Bellingham will be trying to score goals meaning midfield will be open. Tcho treats the ball like a timed bomb.... Ceballos would've been incredibly useful.
Mbape and Arda gads lock in if not nah whahala ooo lol.
I just saw news that Ceballos is available, let's see if Xabi will start him.
We have not shown any ruthlessness in front of goal to make me believe that we'll spank Barca Up on Sunday. Even if we win it'll be a 2 goal advantage at most.
Our players need to re-learn how to be ruthless in front of goal again. You can't create loads of chances and not put away up to even 5% of them.
jpmoriarti: You won't be surprised if it ends in draw? This means you believe there is no chance of a Barca victory.
Quite audacious thing to say about a team who has beaten you in each of the last 4 meetings.
Everyone knows that Barca winning that match would be a huge offset. Your team has been comically poor in La Liga.
But then again Barca and ATM live only for trying to beat Real Madrid so I won't even be suprised if I see a very spirited performance from your team, I just hope my own players rise to the occasion.
AirBere: Is Ceballos injured and unavailable Vs Barca? He's the only player alongside Cama that can actually keep possession against a team whose bread and butter is possession football.
Yea, he is unavailable. I'm also hoping Camavinga will start but I highly doubt it. Xabi looks primed and set to go with his usual midfield of Guler and Bellingham. I just hope they can deliver the goods.
You can see the structure You can see the tactics You can see the formula Xabi has it all set up but some bad habits from the players just done want to die off.
People here that think we'll trash Barca should think again. I won't even be suprised if it ends in a draw.
Kilishihunter: If not for our defence and high line tactics person no supposed fear this Madrid much but with mbappe in his ballon d'or form and them looking for revenge I would still be wary and keep my prayers up for szcensny
That match is going to be closely contested, it'll be down to who wants it more and with how weak and lax some of my players potray themselves on the pitch I dont really want to hold my breath.
Rajmeista: Our build-up play is so funny and easy to crack. Passing and pressing wey no get bite. Build-play for a striker who is also among the people passing the ball around in the midfield? Yet, Jude is being criticised by some fans for his runs into the box.
Although he is scoring a lot of goals, Mbappe is not really being clinical at the moment. I thought all these straight shots to the GKs would end last season. You can't be hitting the ball straight to the GKs like 10 times in every match.
We win the ball back with urgency only to slow it down Everytime. These players need to be faster on the ball
jpmoriarti: I never mentioned anything related to transfer fees in the comment you replied.
Nevertheless, you can go and understand how amortization works as related to player's transfers. You will realise that every club owes a certain amount to other clubs based on the players they purchased. Unless you have to deposit the player's release clause, then it is wiser to amortize the fee over time and pay installmentally.
jpmoriarti: Of course, it will be easier for me to become the next US President than the Laliga Competition Committee, which are notably chaired by former Real Madrid directors, to remove the yellow card which the sadist referee Gil Manzano (a Florention Perez puppet) showed to Hansi Flick for apparently clapping and cheering on his team. He was quick to give him another yellow when the later protested why he was shown a yellow card.
Hansi Flick will now miss the El-classico. It is part of their plan.
Most systemically corrupt league in the world.
Tueeehhh
They have given you people ultimatum to pay 121m out of the total debt you people owe other clubs from previous transfers.
How we let these frauds put 5 past us still baffles and annoys the hell out of me till today. All the players deserve 18738 public lashes for letting that disgrace happen
ValeeLove: factors like professionalism, marketability, freedom, priority, company goal and other characteristics make up the conclusion. I don't think it's perfect, but lots of wrestlers have qualities and needs that'd fit in and be met at a particular establishment better.

Kiss Kiss Bang Bang (2005) - Play dirty's humor made me go check out some of Shane Black's older projects and I found this one. I always enjoy these sort of humor and I'll be looking out for more of his work.
jpmoriarti: Real Madrid sent a letter to CONCACAF (the North American football federation) requesting that the Villarreal–Barcelona match not be held on its territory. [@La_SER]
Do they know something we don't know? Why're they fighting tooth-and-nail to ensure this match does not take place in Miami?
I think most Barca fans and players don't as well want this match in Miami, but at this point, we have to play this match in Miami, so that I can see what will happen. I am now genuinely very curious This desperation from Real Madrid to stop this match means there is something else we're yet to find out. First they reported to UEFA, then reported to FIFA, then reported to CSD. Now it is CONCACAF They also bribed the captains to stage 20 seconds strike before each laliga match.
I want to see what it is that they're desperately trying to prevent.
See someone that says Real Madrid fans are defensive and narrow-minded.
How can another individual with sense start a reasonable discourse with someone that spews constant bull like you?
