Spike Lee’s joint was an abomination. And that’s not even relative to the original. Even if the original didn’t exist, his movie would still suck balls. How in the world do you make a scene where a father guns down his kid unintentionally FUNNY?
I’m all for remakes of Asian films if done well btw. Infernal Affairs was pretty ok. Scorsese’s remake - The Departed - was on a whole different level. Made the original look like a pretty looking hack job(he couldn’t beat the cinematography).
You’re thinking about blowfish.
EDIT:
Wait, no, I think it’s pufferfish.
Yeah - agreed about the departed. A good remake starts with the question, what’s the point? Are you gonna tell it better? Make it look better? Make it more stylish? With Spike, it was just “look what else I can do!”
Poor Josh Brolin. He’s a great actor.
Puffer fish are blowfish.
Now I gotta add, “I think”, because I’m second guessing myself.
Whatever lol. Fish scare the crap out of me.
Yeah, I think I’ve confessed this before. I have an irrational phobia of live fish.
Saw some mentioning Korea too
You really Chinese?
It’s just a choking hazard. The blowfish or pufferfish is the one that can kill you.
There are reports of people dying from eating live squid or octopus too. Saw some articles but not sure if I can link it.
Puffer fish - death by toxin
Squid/octopus - death by choking
Lol there are people who die from choking while eating Chinese mooncakes.
LOL. Love mooncakes though haha
That’s the reason they used to give blanks to one or more shooters in a firing squad, so theoretically an individual soldier wouldn’t know if he was responsible for the death or not (of course trained soldiers could tell due to the lower recoil of blanks, so they progressed to wax bullets and other things).
I don’t know why I only discovered this video. It’s been 3 years since it was uploaded!
I fell for this too! I was sufficiently interested that I read “The Octopus and other minds” by Peter Godfrey-Smith before I fact-checked it - I was expecting some next-level sci-fi stuff about alien intelligence.
Turns out the truth is just as interesting; it demonstrates that intelligence has evolved entirely separately twice, which means that humans (and evolutionary relatives) are not unique even here on Earth.
Which implies that intelligent life has potentially arisen multiple times and therefore could be widespread on other planets and moons…
I’d say the existence of humans implying the existence of intelligent life is a bit of a stretch…
IN Southern China, there’s a very popular type of river puffer fish that’s very toxic; however, thanks to partial domestication and selective breeding, it’s pretty safe to eat in most places
With that said, the wild ones are siginificantly tastier
OOH that’s one of my favourite pieces lifting related content
The guy doesn’t speak english and has a very crappy translator, hard to listen to 
Also, you can tell that Sheiko was getting VERY annoyed/impatient with Omar
I confess that now I understand the new Tnation forums.
The training logs used to be just training and comments about training, but now I see that there is running commentary in there also.
I have so much to learn aboot the new world that we live in.
wish me luck?
It only took me several years to figure that out.
If you find the right training logs there’s also tasteful nudes and full on dick pics.
