    @Jigsaw said: 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple (2026): My mind keeps wandering back to the previous movie ever since I watched it, there was just something about its plot, characters and execution that resonated well with me. This one is a direct continuation, with once again a delightfully "non-typical horror-like" plot set in an absolutely horrific world. Ralph Fiennes was the best, I really appreciate that we got to spend more time with his character as his scenes were some of my favorites in the preceding flick (all I'll say is that Dr. Kelson is my new favorite black metal frontman, lmao ). Once again a very nice watch, these two recent "28..." movies are a good pair imo. Been meaning to watch these. I missed the chance to see them in the theater and I'm slightly paranoid about pirating these very new films in case I get some kind of a letter from some lawyer, lol. I enjoyed the previous films and heard good things about the new ones

    Benedict Anderson's Imagined Communities. Read around 50 pages for school but I reckon I'll pick up the rest of it as well. I'm tempted to read it in the original to enjoy the quality of Anderson's prose, but I'm susceptible to influence and reading in English affects my Finnish in a bad way (and vice versa, I'm completely incapable of juggling between languages), and I've got to do all my assignments in Finnish. The translation's quite good though. I supported the Finnish publishing industry and picked up Kafka's diaries for an exorbitant 44 EUR while vacationing there the other month, and I had to put it down halfway due to the translation, which while I'm sure was fine in relating the author's intent, suffered from the same stylistic poverty most of our translations do these days. I found it to have been a better time when the translators were full-fledged authors who made their own versions of the original in their own voice (Saarikoski, Kianto etc.)
