If Pita Limjaroenrat can’t even become prime minister of Thailand, I would be fine with Paetongtarn Shinawatra.

Edit: Iba na pala ang ino-nominate ng Pheu Thai as prime minister as their alliance’s plan B, si Srettha Thavisin

5/5 Oppenheimer

Despite watching it at a cinema with blurry PQ and a busted center channel that made following dialogue a chore.

Please make recommendations for the theater with the most pinsharp picture and clear audio. I would gladly trade the ATMOS shebang for both of those.

It doesn’t have to be IMAX. Wala naman masyado scenes na visual feast. It’s largely dialogue-driven.

If Interstellar was known to push substandard subwoofers to the breaking point, I’d say the first minute of Oppenheimer alone is enough to plausibly destroy it. Sound design is definitely the film’s strong point, not much the visuals which are few and nothing special.

That’s why I would want to watch it again on a cinema that could show everything clear and sharp. Parang nanood lang ako sa Skyworth na LCD with blacks showing up like grays and faces looking like it was upscaled from 480p. It really soured the viewing experience.

Man, in the past few days and weeks, Filipino film nerds in twitter and reddit swore up and down that IMAX is the only way to watch the movie despite knowing that we’re getting the cropped version.

Having just finished watching it, I pretty much agree with your insights. Clear audio is a definitely a must as I definitely missed some lines.

I’m seriously considering going to Vista Mall for the IMAX (and expensive tickets) if it means getting the sharpest picture quality and clear audio, although I’m open to suggestions. I just feel ripped off spending P500 earlier. After Barbenheimer, I don’t think I’d be watching in the cinemas soon anyway. The better movies are in 2024 (Furiosa, the Gladiator sequel, Deadpool 3).

IMAX Evia was also one of my options, but apparently there are noticeable black spots in the screen, and the hefty price tag (apparently 1k for a ticket) are what threw me off.

Nakita ko uli si swimmer pool guy. I think he’s hot. It’s really the stamina, waking up early in the morning dedication and the discipline that does it for me, okay hahaha. Meron pa siyang timer while doing his laps.

Sa aking training program naman, my plan is to increase my laps per swimming workout. I do have skills I want to improve on. I’m not going hardcore intense because I want it to be fun for me and wala namang humahabol sakin. Sometimes pag ubos na ako ng hininga one lap is just me floating around the pool.

I like how they maintain the pool, hindi matapang yung chlorine. Walang super dry reaction yung skin at hair ko pagkatapos. Also a perk of being early in the morning: I have the cr all to myself tapos tuyo pa 😌 ako ang taga-binyag jk. I think I might stick to this pool 🤔

Let’s go! I used to want to have an official FIDE rating a few years ago, but life schedules got in the way.

Glad to see a few chess players phlemmings on here!
