  1. I think the only type of horror movie that I like is The Others with Nicole Kidman... so basically the psychological sort with well crafted tension but without gore and jump scares. And then I don't particularly enjoy watching them either as they make me feel uneasy. That said, I really like some Stephen King TV movies but I don't think they really qualify as horror...it's more of a mystery genre for me which I love. Storm of the Century (absolutely loved it!!!), The Stand (one of my favourite novels ever and the adaptation was really good too), Needful Things, and even a pretty stupid one like The Langoliers.
  2. Well the historical element here is supposed to be the Japanese internment camps in the US during WWII, I take it...and the paranormal is probably supposed to be the part of Japanese ghost folklore genre (Kaidanshu) so there are certainly cultural ties here. Still not a fan of it as I'm not really a fan of horror movies Your comparison with The Ring hits the nail I think. EDIT: Yes just did a quick search and thoroughly enjoyed this: https://bloody-disgusting.com/editorials/3576746/kaidan-101-folklore-ghosts-evils-terror-infamy/
  3. I'm not too sure it's going to be my cup of tea... I enjoyed Season 1 primarily because the paranormal was only hinted at, so it was all very subtle and the suspense was mainly of psychological nature. This seems to be a bit too direct for me...
  4. @Bluewolf : do you remember The Terror??? First Episode of Season 2 is out now!
  5. Welcome aboard! How do you feel about Leverkusen's chances this season?

    Well at least you got it stitched up... I got my inner arm sliced pretty badly many years ago; pretty much ignored it then and have been sporting a pretty wicked scar ever since
  7. So so happy for Alex. I actually think it's a great move by Red Bull; putting him in the car for the rest of the season gives them a great opportunity to evaluate him instead of potentially taking a risk and signing him for a full season. It's a massive, massive opportunity for Alex as well; he doesn't have to challenge Max and nobody is expecting him to, he just has to perform better than Gasly did - so basically just needs to deliver solid points by finishing at least P6 ahead of slower midfield cars. I think he'll take his chance too; he's very strong mentally and has already shown that he's able to adapt quickly and seize the opportunity when it presents itself. Just a few months ago he had absolutely no chance of a career in F1, no sponsorship money to keep on driving in F2, had already signed to drive in Formula E, and there he is now, switching to a top F1 team mid-season as a rookie. I think he definitely knows what's at stake here and I might be in the minority here but I am sure he's strong enough - both mentally and as a driver - to make the best out of it. Also it doesn't surprise me one bit that Red Bull are putting Albon in the car instead of Kvyat for the rest of the season. They already know all they need about Kvyat whereas Alex still is a bit of enigma and this is a perfect chance to compare all of their drivers in order to make an informed decision for 2020. If Albon performs better than Gasly did, he should get the seat next year. If he performs at the same level as Gasly did, Red Bull will know they have to look for another driver for next season. Gasly was miserably slow in a Red Bull, Kvyat wasn't convincingly beating Albon in a Toro Rosso despite having 4-5 years more experience in F1; it will be very interesting to see how they do against each other now. Also two of my favourite drivers in one team, love it!
  8. I think I will start tagging you in all of my posts from now on
  9. I actually enjoyed it. Nothing groundbreaking, even a bit cheesy sometimes, but very enjoyable if you like mystery. Kind of reminded me of those old Stephen King TV adaptations.
  10. 10 Runden Bier: 120€ 2 Flaschen Whisky: 160€ Eine Gruppe Union Berlin Fans ausversehen im Urlaub treffen und Eisern Union in den frühen Morgenstunden in ner Kneipe mitsingen: unbezahlbar. Was eine schöne Nacht!

    You mean even worse than man flu??? Seriously; that sucks. Lucky to miss the arteries as well...
  13. As expected, it's now official! Ömer Toprak signed a contract today Baumann also said in the press conference to expect one or two more players to join the team before the transfer window closes. A fullback who can play on both sides + a midfielder are a priority. Janik Haberer is rumoured to be the midfielder we're trying to sign.
  14. Guten Tag, lieber Herr H., welche Freude! Sie haben zu meinem Geburtstag an mich gedacht. Haben Sie vielen Dank für Ihre Zeilen. Ich habe, wie Sie mir gewünscht hatten, den Tag sehr genossen und im Kreise lieber Menschen verbracht. Nochmal danke für Ihre Glückwünsche, über die ich mich wirklich sehr gefreut habe. Es grüßt Sie Ihr Frau N.
  15. Vielen lieben Dank Oh das werd ich sicher machen; eigentlich hab ich gestern schon frühzeitig damit angefangen Apropos Duzen: es ist mir meistens unangenehm, gesiezt zu werden. Bin zwar über 30, fühle mich aber nicht wirklich erwachsen und dann fühle ich mich wirklich alt Danke nochmals.
  16. Toprak deal is done! Expected to be announced officially tomorrow. Transfer fee is reportedly 6 million Euro (paid in installments) and he should sign a two-year deal with an option to extend for one more year.
  17. High winds, apparently, but hey are still looking into it. Really lucky the stadium was empty when it happened... Will have to reschedule their EL match next week.
  18. AZ stadium's roof collapsed today Luckily nobody was hurt.
  19. How did you like it? Not great, not terrible?
  20. Yes; Iko Uwais! And she played in the Vikings I think? Quite liked the first two episodes; a bit of fantasy, a bit of martial arts, a bit of crime. Pretty well balanced; will continue watching.
  21. Wu Assasins (released today on Neflix) is quite good...
  22. Another setback for Bartels - will undergo a knee surgery again and won't be able to train for about a month Looks more and more like the end of a career.
  23. Official: Mexico GP stays on the calendar!
