Poor Things is far from a Poor FilmTop Story - December 2023
Poor Things is the latest film from Yorgos Lanthimos, who previously brought us such films as the shocking and feral Dogtooth, the power play of the Favourite and the twisted & at times terrifying Killing of a Sacred Deer. Lantimos returns with an entirely new vision, something almost familiar and yet fresh and unseen. A Victorian tapestry splattered with a vibrant colorful steampunk layer.

Is Disneyland losing its magic?
When I was a kid, going to Disneyland was a truly special experience. Of course, in the early 90s the average adult ticket for the day was 35 dollars. It was also only one park then but compared to today’s 194 on peak days. Of course, the peak season keeps gradually increasing meaning more days for nearly 200$. The value days price at around 104 which still is three times the price for a single park trip thirty years ago. Now I know about inflation, you don’t have to remind me. However Disney is a multibillion dollar company that charges this much money yet still can’t properly pay their employees to live in a high cost area like Southern California. Disney charges an arm and a leg for admission because they know someone will pay it, pricing out many lower income and even middle class families today.
