Sep. 26th, 2011 01:39 pm♠ A bomb attack at a church in Solo, Central Java. Condolences to the victims, and may the perpetrator get repaid in full. These bombers always strike when anyone least expects it; that they're able to strike at all, and constantly too, is horrifying.
♠ Posters for Flowers of War/Nanking Heroes. As feared, it's all about Christian Bale and pretty Asian women. Why, Zhang Yimou, why.
♠ Since Potluck #3 didn't launch, a second round is being planned. There may be more than one theme.

(And -- sigh, I'd hoped the film wouldn't be centered that way, but... I guess it was hoping against hope?
Re: the church bombing, my thoughts are with the victims and their families.)

Date: 2011-09-27 03:52 pm (UTC)Since the movie is planned for international release... it has to appeal to an international audience, thus the spotlight on
the white saviorBale? *eyeroll*Bombings on houses on worship make me especially angry. And afraid, lest we grow used to violence and feel less and less sympathy.
