    I'm curious to see how this turns out.

    The latter part of this doco delves into Chinese rail. There’s some staggeringly impressive numbers involved in their mega projects. If only we had their vision and drive in our western countries…
    You know if we ever managed to build a high speed rail link we’d be lucky if there was any more than 4-6 journeys a day. The Beijing to Shanghai has 300km/h trains departing every five mins!!!! Hell we can’t even get buses going that.

    If only we had a totalitarian government that has no issue with executing citizens who wont do as ordered, or the massive stockpiles of money sent from the West in exchange for a slave labour workforce. Sounds like paradise

    This is excellent. Starts with an homage to Kubrick. Seriously.

    Gets better from there. Really funny, the cast are great, and at times some uncomfortable viewing for anyone in the slightest bit self-aware.

    Go along and have a good time, I dare you.

    Sounds awfully familiar in some aspects…. I hope your not typing that on a made in China electronic device with rare earth metals in electronics mined using child slave labour…..

    Foundation on Apple TV - Now two episodes into second series. Good SciFi - we like it.

    Very unlikely on our skinny rails. The terrain in this country necessitated a narrow gauge. Switzerland has two gauges, a wider one on the flat that high speed trains can use, and a narrow gauge in the mountains. If your destination is in the alps you change trains.

    True, hopefully if it ever happens we’ll go Muldoon style and revamp the entire network. But after six years of a pro rail govt we don’t even have a twin line to make the north port fantasy work.

    The drinker is a tad harsh but I found Oppenheimer quite captivating. It’s a massive three hours long but at no point do you have the hurry up and get to action feeling.
    It is more biopic than tense thriller covering his path to the project and the moral crossroads he weaves through but quite enthralling with superb actors and filmography.
    Sheds a light into the darker side of American politics also. 8/10

    Incidentally at PaknSave a bag of malteasers and bottle of fruit juice was only a dollar or so shy of movievticket cost!!!

    There's your problem. I get that the cunt has to get eyeballs on his channel so he needs to have a point of difference. But, like so many others, his chosen point of difference is being a cunt. Sound familiar? Also a cunt not in the warm, damp, nurturing way, but the "See how clever I am with my hot take on a popular thing. I know, I'll use a lot of words I don't really understand and feed into a lot of right wing rhetoric (again, sound familiar?) and that will drive eyeballs and engagement." Cool.
