This video uses Downtown LA’s rougher edges to create the video, such as peeling paint and flickering street lights. Although it is shot in a bleak style, the performances of the members come to life especially in G-Dragon’s scenes shot in empty lots. The city seems to be sighing in sync with the chorus.

'Young Forever' (The Most Beautiful Moment in Life: Part 3) features 'Save Me’. This album showed much growth in BTS’ music. Although the sound became more mature, it still retained raw elements. The choreography for ‘Save Me’ is particularly iconic, with smooth movements throughout the dance. The lyrics for the song were written partly by RM, which is why fans can sense the personal connection he has with the song. The album itself takes on many moods and is perfect for when I’m feeling down on rainy days.

I went down a rabbit hole about this a while back because the 'Story of My Life' MV has such a cozy, nostalgic vibe. The whole thing was shot in a gorgeous old farmhouse in Franklin, Tennessee—just outside Nashville. The director, Ben Winston, wanted that 'family album' feel, so they filled the place with vintage photos and knickknacks. The boys even brought their actual family pictures for some scenes, which makes it feel extra personal.
What’s wild is how the location totally matches the song’s theme. The creaky wooden floors and those dusty photo albums make you think about memories fading over time. Plus, the rural setting contrasts so hard with their usual glitzy pop imagery—it’s like they stripped everything back to basics. I love how the peeling wallpaper and antique frames almost become characters in the video.

Music video = MV. Until recently, I had always just called those “videos” (e.g. “MTV videos” [from the 80s]) but now MVs include anime openings and most J-rock videos. Weird how language evolves. And I’ve even started spreading it to other areas (e.g. “Check out the new MV!”).
As for what an MV can be, it’s really up to the artist. Usually, we get a straight up performance video. Sometimes there’s even a full story behind it. Ariana Grande recently dropped a brilliant thank u, next MV full of 2000s pop culture references, for example. And then there’s the abstract stuff – everything from a crying polar bear to a futuristic, isolated world where a woman rails against her environment. As a hybrid of musician and director, an MV can be pretty much whatever. My current obsession with music videos currently centers around how artists are incorporating AR (Augmented Reality) into their work, including the amazing MV for aespa’s Next Level, where human avatars coexist with their digital counterparts in actual real life spaces. Music videos are really the future of music – and it looks like it’s here already.

Meanwhile, Robin Wright and the cast were performing wonderfully throughout the years. The superb work of Wright and rest of cast in the last season, although the material wasn’t of the best quality, was truly dignified. Sadly, their efforts are mostly being eclipsed by the Spacey scandal and so aren’t getting the appreciation they deserve.
For people in the TV industry, the Spacey scandal was a big wake-up call for how dangerous it is to rely too heavily on a single big star. It’s pushed the TV arms of the networks and of the streaming services to think more about building ensemble casts as “safety nets” and to think about contingency plans for how to handle problematic actors. So in some way the awful ending to House of Cards might have had a positive effect on the industry and made it a little stronger to handle difficult stars and show them in a negative light.

None of your business, and anyone telling you is a liar trying to get attention for harming the artists in some way. Just stop. Talk about their work instead.

I’ve always been one to look for the reasoning behind the choices of locations for films. The film The Fallen, for example, shot in Jordan where the locations provided an idealized version of the past; a lost, great civilization, that existed in a very harsh and beautiful land. The Czech locations, on the other hand, represented the very corrupt and complicated present of all politics and shadows and decaying institutions. The geographical narrative was without a doubt a huge factor in the film feeling as cohesive as it does thematically. The locations weren’t just chosen because they were pretty, they were chosen to further reinforce the storyline of the film. The heat haze in the desert and the chill fog in the Bohemian woods are not just weather conditions, they also symbolize emotions that the actors had to really experience for themselves and not just pretend to in front of a fan with a green screen behind them.

A pretty apt location for a movie about the last people on Earth was the New Zealand South Island for ‘Z for Zachariah’. Primarily shot in the Otago region, locations in and around Queenstown, Glenorchy and the Dart River were used to bring the sheltered and lush farm, and then imposing barren environment to life. A farm set was built for the movie and shot on location at the respective locations to meet the story requirements of the movie.
Of course, the other big benefit of shooting in New Zealand is the huge amount of production support, plus the fact that the film is eligible for those famous NZ filming incentives. But, artistically speaking, choosing to shoot ‘Z for Zachariah’ in New Zealand’s South Island was a great choice. The location is a main character, and it does a lot of the storytelling. The silence of those mountains, and the clear river, really add to the mood of the film and the fragile survival of the remaining humans on Earth.

This video looks at the different ways that the members of BTS have learned English, with some preferring to learn from textbooks and literature like Namjoon, while others prefer to watch documentaries and listen to podcasts on subjects that interest them, such as Yoongi. There’s also learning phrases to use in social interaction, like Jin. Others, like Jungkook, probably pick up English from music and games that he plays. Taehyung is a movie man and tends to pick up English from random conversations with fans, while Jimin is probably a classroom kind of learner or picks up from his members. As for Hoge, he probably mixes it all up. Because their English really reflects their personalities, it’s really difficult to compare them to each other.

I can only remember taking 2 Kindle screenshots in my entire life. Both times, I had no idea what happened to them. They just vanished. This thread is super helpful. The screenshots are stored in a folder on my computer (dedicated to Kindle stuff, obviously) – a folder within my Pictures folder. So, I shall have to dig out that and see if I have any hidden gems buried away from years ago. This is like finding money in an old coat pocket, but with lots of really nice quotes from books I’d long since forgotten I’d read. Maybe I’ll even start a new folder and collect my favorite quotes in that. Better late than never, I suppose.
