Trama e cast di Frankenstein, il film di del Toro in gara a Venezia 82
Il grande cineasta messicano presenta in Concorso alla Biennale la sua personale visione del celeberrimo romanzo gotico di Mary ShelleyGiulio Zoppello (Esquire)
"Throughout the book, Doctorow uses an extended medical metaphor, naming his sections things like “The Pathology,” “The Epidemiology,” and finally “The Cure.” But remember, he identified the root cause of enshittification as the profit-seeking nature of corporations themselves, as corporations. By nature, they “would like to charge as much as possible for goods and services while spending as little as possible on… anything.” And as good as they are in a vacuum, none of the proposals in Enshittification would remove that root problem. Instead of a cure, what we get is a series of palliatives.
In the book’s conclusion, Doctorow writes that he’s “no true believer in markets as the best arbiter of how our society should work,” and that “like other leftists, I am deeply suspicious of capitalism.” Elsewhere, he’s written favorably about China Miéville’s commentary on the Communist Manifesto. But with that in mind, it’s strange that the solution he arrives at isn’t particularly anti-capitalist or anti-market. In a memorable metaphor, he describes tech CEOs as showing up to work every morning, “going directly to the giant ENSHITTIFICATION lever installed in the C-suite and yanking on it as hard as they can.” But, he says, “the difference is that the lever used to be stuck. It was gummed up by competition, by regulation, by interoperability [users’ ability to easily switch software], and by tech workers’ power and conscience.” By restoring all of those things, he hopes to re-gum the lever.
But this is a limited horizon to aim for. It promises restrained and regulated tech companies, perhaps chastened and better-behaved, but it does not challenge the idea that for-profit companies should be the ones making and maintaining the technology we all rely on. The question remains: why should we accept the existence of a malevolent CEO with an enshittification lever at all?"

Self-Titled Summer | Minor Threat (1984, US)
Our next spotlight on a Fedi-recommended self-titled album is on number 609 on The List, submitted by markwyner. This album - a compilation of two 7"s and a couple other songs - is essentially an iconic piece of history. It not only strongly influenced the underground hardcore scene in Washington D.C. and beyond and gave the straight edge scene both its name and creed, but it also solidified Ian MacKaye and Jeff Nelson's Dischord Records as an indie label that could actually make its DIY, no bullshit ideals work.

Don’t let the grocery giants fool you: food price inflation is not the farmer’s fault. | National Farmers Union
Paying farmers a fair share is not inflationary, corporate greed is. Canadians are upset about higher grocery bills, but most farmer incomes have not kept up…James Hannay (National Farmers Union)
this is the story we're not getting in the media. I keep yelling at the radio news grocery price stories: "where's the money going?"
I wish they would follow the money. None of us thought it was going to the farmer. Middlemen have exploited crises for profit and nobody called them on it.

Gli umani che riscoprono il passato che a loro appartenevano... non credo abbiano una propria logica tutte queste scene.
Ma c'è da dire che la scena in cui John Travolta gli fa mangiare un pesce ad uno degli umani è stata la cosa più stupida che abbia mai vista...
Ok, ho già detto tutto. Questo film è DAVVERO tutto sbagliato. Così sbagliato... che davvero non ne vale più la pena riguardarlo.
Non so se è meglio in tal caso i film dell'Asylum....

Allora dovrei dire che in tal caso ho fatto bene invece guardare 1990 - I guerrieri del bronx, perché dopotutto, la trama li aveva un minimo di senso ed era stato dunque un film da 6 stelle.
Chi aveva l'idea della regia di questo film non credo abbia l'idea di come si dirige un film per bene, o non abbia mai guardato film in vita sua.
