Just seen it on Twitter, too. WTF Good to see he's having fun though

Yeah, Terence Malick's style is definitely not for everyone, so I can understand that! I personally love it, but if you're looking for action and a rather fast-paced, straightforward story, then Malick's movies are definitely not the best choice Don't think you can even compare it to the war movies like The Longest Day or Battle of the Bulge though, as those two are pretty much detailed accounts of a specific historical battle, whereas The Thin Red Line is more of an introspective and pensive look into broader philosophical themes and ideas, particularly the nature of war, human condition, life and death, creation and destruction, harmony and chaos. I haven't seen a more poetic movie...

That's because it's not a remake - both the 1964 and 1998 movies are loose adaptations of James Jones' s novel! It's an anti-war movie, first and foremost.

The target audience is pretty wide, to be honest. Mostly teens, young adults and adults, I'd say, or pretty much anyone with interest in space, physics, technology, large-scale politics, etc. It's trivial literature, but it has enough complexity and while early teens could read it, I think a lot of stuff would fly well over their heads. Interestingly, the average reader of Perry Rhodan is over 45 years old, according to a survey a few years ago - I think the main reason for it are those readers who got into it in their youth, and continued reading for decades. As for this format of literature in general, there's something for pretty much any age group. Detectives, spies, agents, western stories of cowboys and Indians, scifi and space opera, adventure, ghost stories, horror, love stories, romance, erotica, Heimat novels, and so on. It surely isn't intellectual or high quality literature, but it can be great entertainment. I personally used to read them mostly when travelling, as the format is very suitable for that, and it helps to pass the time in flight or on train while not having to think too much, so also a good option if you're tired or sleepy

It's beautiful

I love retro cover art. It's crazy to see how it changed throughout the years. The original cover of the very first issue (1961): The cover of one of the newest issues (2021):

That's probably because there was a movie released a few years ago, and it was absolutely horrific Don't watch it

I bought them regularly in the late 90s - early 2000s. Bastei Verlag still sells 22 million copies each year... Moewig Verlag still publishes Perry Rhodan every week. I picked up a new issue of Maddrax in the magazine kiosk at Frankfurt Airport just three months ago But yeah, I think it's a bit of a niche these days...

For real?

I have 400+ issues of Lassiter And a bunch of Mister Dynamit.

A bit random - got first 49 issues of Perry Rhodan today (1. Zyklus: Die Dritte Macht). Can't believe the series are still ongoing and the most recent issue (Band 3123) has been published just yesterday That's crazy, it's been going for over 60 years now! I must admit I have always had a soft spot for pulp magazines and dime novels Does anyone else still read any Romanhefte? Or which ones did you use to read, if any? I used to love G. F. Unger's western stories and John Sinclair...

Thought Artemis was decent. If you get a chance, read Weir's latest novel afterwards. Absolutely amazing.

Rooting for Kimiläinen.

No, I'm afraid not... Don't really watch Porsche SuperCup, already have too many series on my watchlist And yeah, hopefully there's rain all over the weekend, would spice up the race even more.

What I meant was that I don't particularly care about what kind of logo a league uses, as that's completely non-important to me

Yes, but it would be even harder if TF365 didn't exist

Done deal!

Thanks, and yeah I figured you'd be unhappy... Seems like he changed his mind because of Anfang, so just be angry with him

Next transfer appears to be coming - Nicolai Rapp from Union (last season on loan in Darmstadt). Has been spotted coming to Weserstadion today. @londonerlilie your thoughts on him, please? I read he's better as a DM, not so much s a CB?

Glad to hear! I binged it all in two nights after work, just couldn't stop watching. It just gets better and better, and the ending was satisfying, too.

It's pretty good at first, but then I thought it dragged on for too long. Should have been just one single season.

Wait till you turn 40

https://www.deichstube.de/news/werder-bremen-thomas-schaaf-abgang-wechsel-reaktion-aus-club-legende-maechtig-sauer-auf-verein-zr-90816345.amp.html Thomas Schaaf's reaction feel bad for him; he's definitely not the one to complain to the media, but this must have really hurt...

In other news, Molde rejected our first offer for Fredrik Aursnes. The player apparently wants to join, so it's a matter of negotiating the terms with his club now. A real defensive midfielder
