So now snow piercer season 2 episode 2.

"The Caro-Kann.

Give him the center of the board at first."

Cause that's what c6, d5 does.... 

Perhaps it's the only way to reach the masses with minimal research. 

edit: retitled the topic after remembering this soapy song

That is a pretty valid point Mr. Bunny.

Again in Gringo, oyelowo (perhaps carrying over from Queen of katwe) verbally goes over fool's mate in one of his drunken dialogues in this movie.

Hard to believe? Here's the evidence.

Just the other day Richard invited me into his office to play chess. He wanted to show me how much he had improved since we were at college. So he's playing white, and he begins with F-3. Naturally, I respond with E-5. What does this crazy man do? G-4. Can you believe it? G-4. All I have to do is move my queen to H-4, checkmate. But did I do it? No. Why? Because I had my father's voice in my head. "Respect the rules." As a rule, you do not defeat your boss,

What have you done oyelowo? What have you done to chess?

Is regular chess too square for our bunny? What would the Majestic Bunny like then?

A different shape?

Or perhaps another dimension...

Chess is talked about everywhere. Film and television are no exception. The most sensational thing I've heard about chess is the TV series "The Queen's Turn. I watched it on 123movies. Perhaps the high rating will encourage to make a sequel. I would like to see more about the adventures of a lonely and brilliant soul in such a fragile body of a young girl. Whose life is just beginning. That would be to find out what happened to her afterwards. Very high quality and atmospheric series recommended for viewing.

stop bumping long dead topics

There's no issue with bumping them as long as they're interesting and not something cringe , the topics nowadays aren't really that "mint".
