  1. ^Haneke is bomb. I picked up the Director's Suite box-set of his work not too long ago. Excellent purchase. Still haven't got around to seeing the Funny Games remake.

    I haven't seen the remake either. I agree with the critics that it's weird that he remade one of his less sophisticated films. Funny games was meant to be a satire of shit Hollywood thrillers and it hasn't dated very well at all. All of that breaking the 4th wall shit seems pretty cheesy these days.

    seksu!, try Time of the Wolf, Hidden or 7th Continent. Totally different. His films are fairly esoteric.

    I'm looking for more films in the same vein as Haneke. I quite like the Dardenne brothers and some of the Iranian films, but they're only similar in the lack of music/Hollywood structure/pacing etc. but are nowhere near as confrontational.

  2. Barnett is overrated IMO. Yvel had no ground game, Rizzo's been real bad over the last couple of years. He was a beast during the OW GP though. His sub defence is siiiick. The only way I can see Barnett winning is via a lucky punch. No way in hell that he'll pound out a victory, or get a sub.

    I'd rather see Fedor fight one of the really big UFC dudes like Carwin or Cock Chestner. I would love to see Fedor slap an armbar on Brock from full guard, or some sort of mid-air knockout.

    Moto (Japanese) here. This is a ladies boot, but the men's is much the same. No idea what they cost or where to kop. I think I want a pair of everything on the site. Would strangle a sack full of kittens to get a pair of Motos...

    Also, Augusta is stocked in a shop near where I live. (Some sort of offshoot of Carpe Diem I believe) Can't bear to check them out. A $2k pair of boots is the last thing I need.

  4. So my dad has this old leather motorcycle jacket that I took from him, needs to be conditioned and treated because it's stiff and dry, but the biggest problem is that there are creases in the sleeves from being on a hanger for so long. And ideas on how to get them out? i already tried laying them out and stacking a ton of books on them for 2 weeks, and it did nothing. I read you can iron it with a damp towel and then a dry towel over it. Any suggestions?

    Sorry for the not so great pictures, camera sucks. A bit too tight to zip, in the last picture you can see the creases in the sleeves.

    I've read somewhere that you can leave it in the bathroom while you take a hot shower, and the steam softens/conditions it. I haven't tried it personally though, so don't quote me on that.

  5. This should be incorporated into a tattoo.

    Old post, but a couple of you seemed interested in the idea. I found this online somewhere.

    Also, any tips on representational tattoos? (portraiture/realistic images) I've seen too many cringeworthy portraits online. I suppose you need to go for high contrast/strong shadows... basically something that'd work as a stencil, with minor shading? Anything else I should keep in mind?

    I dig this guy's stuff (the execution more than the images):

  6. Does anyone have any experience with Chausser shoes? I am eyeing these (or some MOTO) boots when I am in Japan:

    Blackbird has something similar. Retarded price though. ($795)

    You can get your wabi sabi on with the shoes.

    Would definitely kop these hobo shoes if my dad was a sheik.
