Title: Movies/TV shows that don't suck on Netflix
Post by: happenstance on November 27, 2011, 01:30:30 AM
For anyone who streams Netflix, they know there is a lot of crap to weed through. Anyone have any suggestions that don't suck?

Mine is '180 Degrees South'. A documentary about a man's journey to climb Patagonia. I learned about it from Heath's blog and it will make you want to do something adventurous.

Darks Days was ok, but you should really read Mole People by Jennifer Toth.
It really goes a lot "deeper", if you know what I mean!

13 assasins- amazing new-ish samurai movie

kagemusha- kirasawa classic


white lightnin'- watched this last night. pretty good. a lot darker than i thought it would be.

troll hunter- thought it would be terrible. was better than i expected.

pulling john- documentary about arm wrestling. it's basically over the top combined with rocky. worth a watch for the russian training montages alone.

cocaine cowboys 1&2- in my top 5 documentaries of all time. i didn't like all the cartoon stuff in the second one but the story is even more insane.

classics:
carlito's way
dog day afternoon
big trouble in little china
chinatown
they live

There's an anime series called "Death Note" which was surprisingly good.

If you haven't tried Lost, go for it.

First season of Desperate Housewives was pretty funny, somehow lost interest after the first season though.

The Comedy Central Roasts are good fun (Charlie Sheen, Bob Saget, inter alia).

First Season of The Walking Dead (the AMC show).

Weeds.

Jericho.

Battlestar Galactica.

I'll help you out man.  This is how I get American Netflix in Canada

1. Download Hotspot Shield here http://download.cnet.com/hotspot-shield/ (http://download.cnet.com/hotspot-shield/)
2. Once installed click connect and it will connect you to a server
3. log into Netflix.com using your normal login
4. Enjoy!

Some downsides are that Hotspot shield slows your connection a lot when it's on, so only turn it on while using Netflix.
Hotspot shield has Ads when connected so it can be annoying.  Even Ad-block can't block them.
Once in awhile it will connect you to a server outside of the US and you will get the message "netflix is not available in this country".  In that case just reconnect HotspotShield.

All the cons are so worth it since Canadian Netflix is garbage.

Just saw the movie "Submarine". It was well directed and the art direction/scenery was beautiful thought the film. Had a dry comedy feel to it but I enjoyed with the girlfriend thoroughly. Idk what it is about woman and somewhat depressing movies but she started making out with me during the credits. Always a good start to a friday.

Just got into this series called Traffik. If you enjoyed HBO's "The Wire" then you'll dig this.  Here is what wikipedia says; Traffik is a 1989 British television serial about the illegal drugs trade. Its three stories are interwoven, with arcs told from the perspectives of Pakistani growers and manufacturers, German dealers, and British users.

There's going to be some repeats in here but I struggle with weeding through all the crap of netflix and here's my favorites:

TV Shows:
Breaking Bad - epic. After the first 4 or 5 episodes it really gets amazing
Wonder Years - truly is classic

Movies:
Exit through the gift shop
The Man from nowhere(subtitles, but epic revenge movie)
Tucker and Dale vs Evil(fun to watch while drinking some beers)
Limitless - pretty interesting and entertaining
Red Hill- just watched this and it's ok. pretty entertaining. Australian version of No country for old man kinda.
Exam - once again, just good entertainment, nothing amazing.
The Perfect Host - weird and creepy, but the main actor does an awesome job.
Trainspotting
Sin Nombre - I really enjoyed this
Shutter Island
Life In a Day- kind of interesting documentary
Bronson - really good
Toy Story 3 - gotta love Pixar flicks
Troll Hunter - pretty damn entertaining

Hope this helps

I've been using this site: http://abetterqueue.com/ (http://abetterqueue.com/)

It filters the available netflix movies by RottenTomato ratings. You can search by ratings, years released, and genre. It's pretty awesome for sorting out the good from the shitty. I tend to agree with a lot of RottenTomato ratings anyway, but I know some people don't like their system.

the killing is a shitty, less weird twin peaks. came to that realization the other night.

Exactly, its a boring rainy version of it. With way less interesting characters and no comedic element its just 100% depressing. Its the kind of series I hate but I have to finish it.

The end of season 1 was one of the most frustrating endings to a tv show ever.

There's going to be some repeats in here but I struggle with weeding through all the crap of netflix and here's my favorites:

TV Shows:
Breaking Bad - epic. After the first 4 or 5 episodes it really gets amazing
Wonder Years - truly is classic

Movies:
Exit through the gift shop
The Man from nowhere(subtitles, but epic revenge movie)
Tucker and Dale vs Evil(fun to watch while drinking some beers)
Limitless - pretty interesting and entertaining
Red Hill- just watched this and it's ok. pretty entertaining. Australian version of No country for old man kinda.
Exam - once again, just good entertainment, nothing amazing.
The Perfect Host - weird and creepy, but the main actor does an awesome job.
Trainspotting
Sin Nombre - I really enjoyed this
Shutter Island
Life In a Day- kind of interesting documentary
Bronson - really good
Toy Story 3 - gotta love Pixar flicks
Troll Hunter - pretty damn entertaining

Hope this helps

Solid List! I've seen 90% of these, liked all of them, so I'm gonna watch Man from Nowhere and Red Hill based on your taste.

Gotta say wasn't a fan of "Exam", but like you said nothing amazing

"The Winnebago Man" (thanks to AntiHero's Beauty and Beast "beast" edit for introducing me to this guy)...

Just watched Delhi Belly last night and it was pretty entertaining.

I watched The Robber as recommended by a bunch of people, but I just got bored with it. The main character's lack of personality wore on me.

I watched The Next 3 Day(maybe it's the next 3 hours) and it was a fun watch. Once again, if you just are looking for entertainment, it's a pretty good one. Hadn't seen a movie with Russell Crowe in a long time.

its this british drama about drug dealing and what not. its pretty good. episodes are long as fuck, maybe over an hour (like a true hour, not a TV hour which is 42min plus commercials)

but, its got all the good urban drama elements such as
white mom selling weed
upstart gangster with murder prone best friend
kids not sure what to do with them selves

I've been watching a lot of shows from England. Peep Show is on par with Curb, Saxondale is awesome but not streaming anymore. I'm currently watching The Inbetweeners and it's pretty good. Oh and by the way Cold Fish was shit, a horrible stupid garbage of a movie. A couple of nice Asian tits and a dumb story that makes no sense with characters you don't care about. I loved Old Boy but Cold Fish is Cold Shit, don't waste your time.

A documentary about Bobby Liebling, singer of Pentagram. Super good. Goes to some gross and depressing deaths. Also a lot of insight into the band that I hadn't expected.

Been watching Hitchcock nonstop. I hadn't watched this show since I was a kid on Nick at Night and totally forgot how great it is. Hitchcock's commentary and the twists in the endings make for a good viewin'.

Good recent watches:

Let the Right One In
Fahrenheit 451
The Stranger
The Art of the Steal
Senna
Naked

Since you're paying by month, anyway:

Thrashin'
Hellraiser 1 & 2
Get the Gringo (surprisingly good for a recent Mel Gibson movie)
Hardflip (watched all the way through for some reason)

I'm curious to hear what you liked about it. I can take a lot of gnarly violent movies, but for some reason I just thought this movies was shitty and the torturing shit kinda made me sick to my stomach. I saw a lot of high ratings for it, but I just couldn't get much out of it. Maybe I'm just missing something.

I second this. Saw it when I was a bit younger, kinda a rough movie to watch as a young teen.
BUT. I've seen it a few times over the past two or three years since my initial watch. Great movie. Ellen Paige is fantastic in this movie.
Great to see how she's developed in roles in season 2 of Trailer Park Boys.

Kevin Spacey is absolutely incredible, I love that his sole vice in life isn't drugs/alcohol/gambling etc. but good 'ol BBQ. Netflix is also comin out with new season of Arrested Development, the US rights to Ricky Gervais' new show called "Derek", and this horror show called Hemlock Grove.

Gun violence in the U.S. and corporate greed are two unrelated topics that generally kick SLAP into high gear and bring out the master debators.  This documentary attempts to lay out some interesting ideas that tie the two together...

Murder By Proxy: How America Went Postal, the trailer comes across as a little melodramatic but the actual documentary is toned down a notch...

Good looking out, I'll have to give this series a go. I like the idea of an ongoing horror movie that's not like Tales from Crypt campy or Twilight cheese. Maybe HBO has had something like this before but it seems like Netflix gives a lot more freedom which allows it to be unfiltered as well.

Plus, I fucking love Famke Jaansen for some reason. That new Hansel and Gretel was actually really good and made by the same guy who did Dead Snow.

Recently watched a few Paddy Considine films and the guys amazing - him and Shane meadows are gold.

I thought all these were amazing and not tried plots.

This one is so fucking unsettling:

Ashley Arbaugh is so creepy and sociopathic. If you watch this, then read into the story, the plot thickens so much more than you would have thought between the directors and her... Also if you watch this I did some research and found out that Tigran of Noah's models is this man, Akhmed Bilalov:

A bunch of adult swim/cartoon network shows circa 1990s were added recently - the kid in me is hyped!

I've been watching a bunch of Parks and Recreation lately. I thought that it would be a shittier interpretation of The Office, but no - it's great. Also, I finally mustered up the courage to watch the UK edition of The Office - very satisfied, but it was hard as fuck to get past the first two episodes.

And then I couldn't see the last image image whitemanjazz posted, so I used my imagination and figure he was talking about this...

awesome movie

Miller's crossing is the image posted. Seriously such an underrated film. It unfortunately (and surprisingly) didn't do well at the box office.

Though the trailer doesn't do the film justice...

Yeah I came to this thread to post that actually. One of my favorite movies.
I love that scene too, and when they're partying after stealing the coke from the Africans.

I've been watching the Ken Burns Civil War documentary series lately. Really engrossing and comprehensive, highly recommended.
They have a lot of his stuff on Netflix. The wwII series is super good as well, and someone mentioned the national parks one earlier.

Absolutely. It's definitely my favorite/the best new comedy on air. I re-watch most of the Andy and Ron scenes several times just out of hilarity. Like the first lil sebastian episode? -HOLY SHIT. Ron's giggle when they announce lil sebastian is one of the funniest things that I have ever heard.

And of course April...

If any of you guys actually meet her, you've gotta share the story!

I was wishing this was on Netflix, and then realized it's on the kids wb site
http://www.kidswb.com/video/Batman-The-Animated-Series/ (http://www.kidswb.com/video/Batman-The-Animated-Series/)

And a gnar for you, sir.

I was wary about Warrior considering the subject matter but I actually really enjoyed it.

(http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/e/e3/Warrior_Poster.jpg/215px-Warrior_Poster.jpg)

I've plugged Where Soldiers Come From here before. It's a documentary about a few guys I grew up with who went to Afghanistan with the National Guard. It may be a bit erroneous to suggest it's apolitical, but it's an unbiased and honest look at most of the people who go to war and how it affects their families and communities

(http://cdn9.nflximg.net/images/7389/2087389.jpg)

Twin Peaks is one of those shows that people always plug, and once you watch it you understand why. I'm a big fan of David Lynch and the show is some of his best stuff.

If you are talking about Netflix, this is weird dude.  You are supposed to be able to rewatch shows as many times as you want.  Works for me.  It may be that specific show having problems with copyright or uploading issues or something.  Call Netflix if the problem ensues.

ABC's of Death just got added to streaming.  Its 26 horror shorts by 26 (pretty legit) directors, each corresponding to a letter of the alphabet. 

I'm not going to say its a great movie, because a lot of it sucked, but there were a bunch of really good ones.  The one by the guy that directed Hobo with a Shotgun was probably my favorite.

Worth a look if you're into this sort of stuff
Title: Re: Movies/TV shows that don't suck on Netflix
Post by: sexualhelon on June 29, 2013, 08:18:36 AM
I started watching the ABC's of Death the other day with two of my Belgian friends who were staying with me - both girls - and they definitely weren't into it haha. I want to finish it but, yeah, so far most of them are pretty eh but I really want to see the R one because it's the only other thing Srdjan Spasojevic has done aside from A Serbian Film.

Speaking of A Serbian Film, I watched The Kill List the other day which was pretty good and couldn't help but draw a complete parallel comparison. One is obviously aggressive, to the point where it OBVIOUSLY stops worrying about taste to get its point across, and the other is a slow-boil designed to give you a false sense of comfort and security. They are of similar genres, sure, but they both take VERY different approaches. Kill List shows suburban life "in all it's beauty" - if you're into that suburban life sort of thing - slowly being corrupted by the leads. I think I probably liked the cinematography better in a Serbian film which was very retro-modern grindhouse-esque to me. Kill List cinematography was great as well though reminding me of Scandinavian films.

I would say he is a american chef or atleast korean american chef . Hand he is quite famous in the restaurant bizz / foodies world . He started up momofuku and the other sister restaurants , so not so much famous for being Aziz Ansari .

Vice which is abit a hit or miss place has a pretty ok show called

Netflix protip - Download the Hola Unblocker extension for Chrome. It allows you to change your vpn to different countries and watch a lot of movies that aren't available on US Netflix. it doesn't work if you have the DVD subscription though...

Been watching Fringe, shit's dope. If you like X-Files, you'll like Fringe. It's corny at times, and they definitely jack some of their stories from other shows/movies, but it's dope.

dude thanks for the heads up on this.  eight episodes in and it's definitely filling the x-files void i've felt over the past few years.  x-files could be corny at times too, but i never held that against it.

As an X-files fan, that isn't the first time I've heard that comparison. Maybe it's time to check it out.

I hate the cover to the show so much though. It's really hard for me to believe something that looks like this would be quality.

yes, because his character is mentally unstable/was committed for 20 years.  and yes that poster makes it look like any one of those regular USA buddy cop shows, but it's better than that, i assure you.

I'm probably going to get shit for this, but my girlfriend and I got hooked on American Horror Story.  Season 1 and 2 are up.  Some of the acting is a little eh, and there are definitely cheesy and stupid moments, but I don't think I've really seen a tv show like it.  They kind of try to cram WAY too much into each season, and definitely play on tongue in cheek horror movie cliches and played out themes, but I think it's fairly well done otherwise. 

They just added season 11 of Family Guy as well.

I have bad taste in things.

Just finished the last episode, incredible all the way through.
Can't stress enough how well done this show is from top to bottom, it really makes me want to find the British version and compare the two.

Stoked that we have the option to plow through all these episodes in succession but at the same time like you said, no new episodes for about a year.
I'm sure there are people that have enough willpower to dole them out slowly and enjoy letting the suspense build over a longer period of time, but when the whole season of something this good is just laid out in front of you like this I am definitely not one of those people.

Not sure if this is ABP, but if anybody's into kung fu type stuff I just watched Ip Man and I really liked it. 2nd one was pretty corny but still enjoyable. It's very loosely based on the guy who taught Bruce Lee.

House of Cards season two is now up
[close]
Yeah it just went up on Friday and I'm on episode 9 already.
The most binge worthy shit out right now, I wish all my favorite shows did this.
[close]

Finished the whole thing already, amazing show. Kevin Spacey is just perfect in it, and Frank Underwood plays the politics game perfectly throughout. At first I didn't like the whole China thing, but it really works towards the end. The one problem is, no new episodes for about a year.
[close]
Just finished the last episode, incredible all the way through.

The movie "How to be a Man" is absolutely hilarious. Pretty much this comedian guy thinks he's dying and his wife is preggers, so he starts making a movie with this young dude on, well, how to be aman. Ends up being him completely screwing up all the time, doing a bunch of drugs, getting in fights with kids, cheating on his wife, etc.

Just watched this. Surprised it is getting such great reviews. Acting was not exactly great and the story lacked coherence, trying to be macabre and funny but ending up being neither. 
Excuse my unsolicited review, but I'm kind of curious what others think about it. Tarantino called this the best movie of the year so by all means, go see it. There's probably something to it that I'm not seeing.

I love the monster of the week episodes but eventually got tired of the conspiracy episodes.

I just discovered River Monsters on Netflix. Its interesting as hell, morbid enough to be cool and does the impossible in making a fishing show entertaining.

Saw an episode of that where he caught this ugly ass 900 pound dead eyed whatever in Africa and his was talking about throwing it back.  His guide was like "Nah son. We're taking that back to the village."  So they kind of let it die in the shallow end so it wouldn't seem so harsh, I guess.  Fish fry.

BUT does anyone know when sons of anarchy season 6 going to be on netflix? like how is fx with their shows going on netflix, im pretty sure amc puts the previous season on netflix as soon as the new one starts so im waiting for the walking dead season 4 to get on there also

Here's a few of my favorites recently:
Louie
Todd and the Book of Pure Evil
Wilfred
Derek
Juno
Blue Mountain State
Hard Times of RJ Berger
Someone Marry Barry
Inbetweeners
Rev.
IT Crowd

There's a lot of small shows and movies that I just can't remember right now but these are the few that come to mind. Some of the other ones I like are mostly repeats like Trailer Park Boys or Parks and Rec, and for the people who liked Arrested Development, the Increasingly Poor Decisions of Todd Margaret is pretty good. I'm probably gonna start watching Orange is the New Black and Breaking Bad at some point.

I just realized i have been watching a lot of USA network shows.

White collar is a decent show but its a typical kind of a cop show where 2 people become partners and hate each other at first but then they become best friends at the end BUTT kelly from saved by the bell is in it and she looks good, thick, but good

Royal pains is kind of like the show house like how people have weird medical issues and get fixed in unorthodox ways but the difference is everyone loves the main character and a little less drama is in it but still good. Also the dude from Roadtrip is in it and i like him.

Psych is just a good drama but mainly funny show

Im currently re watching Burn Notice for the 2nd time and this show has everything, action in every episode, a little humor but not that much just like "ha that was kind of funny" type and a lot of action

so these are the shows i suggest you watch if your bored cause you can get in to them pretty easily

I like both of those shows but the killing was fucking insane, do yourself a favor and watch it. Maybe they will make another season of it if more people watch it like they watch OITNB and House of cards

The ending is the best part exactly because its so anticlimactic. The whole point is that you can't win. They got their one guy, but the conspiracy as a whole will never be solved, because something that deep cannot be unearthed by anyone, let alone a couple of guys in a small town. Towards the end, at one point theres a TV in the background, with a reporter saying "family denies all knowledge of distant relative..." That's paraphrased, but that line sums up the entire point of the show. If something like that were going on in real life, which isn't too far removed from crazy conspiracy peoples ideas of the illuminati, there would be no way to uproot their power. Everything is for naught.

Longmire is actually pretty good, i didn't give it a chance at first because it was on A&E but i started to watch it when i went on the netflix facebook page and every comment was saying "netflix pick up longmire (it got cancelled after two seasons)". I hope they pick it up and i also read somewhere online that the tv show Friends is going on to netflix. Don't know if i should be stoked on that or not but hopefully they will eventually but Seinfeld on there

I have watched the X files through twice, and now am trying to watch this Supernatural show. It is basically garbage made for grown up Buffy fans. It's playing in the background right now, taunting me with its shiteness.

Can anyone recommend any other X files like fodder that won't make me crippled with embarrassment to watch, even when alone.

i don't know if it's on netflix but i've been watching on youtube 'dual survival'. i only ever caught a half episode on tv here or there but the new survivalist matt is something else. he's got a partner, some joe rogan type schmuck who doesn't have the skills or the PMA you need to survive in the wild. there's old episodes w/ another codgy ex military jabroni and a pseudo indian w/ braids, like there's always the army vs hippie dynamic but the new guy is incredible.

Anybody watched the new season of Archer that just got added on? i watched two episodes and the picture just stops, like the audio is still good but the picture just freezes every like minute. Its not my internet because other shows work fine. Just wondering if anyone else is having that problem with Archer season 5

i watched em all somewheres else on the comp but 'the bridge' was awesome. alas, it got shitcanned after 2 seasons [but you motherfuckers keep damn family feud on for decades] so it's only 26 episodes.
season 2 is about cops on the juarez/el paso border, a cartel boss, an american coyote who rescues mexican women, this wicked attractive shunned mormon who kills like nothing and carries a ledger everywhere in order to cook the books for the cartel. she is played by the gal from 'run lola run' which i haven't seen in 15 yrs but i remember liking it.
oh, fuckin ted levine from 'bullet' and 'silence of the lambs' is on there too, he's the older boss cop. i told my friend that and he tuck his dick in his legs and goes 'i'd arrest me so hard' but for honest ted levine plays it pretty straight.
whoever hasn't seen 'bullet' w/ him and mickey rourke, one of the best 90s movies.

Netflix has single handedly gotten me back into Malcolm in the Middle. I remember watching it a lot when I was younger but I didn't really remember the episodes too well. Started binge watching it a few nights back and it's such a good show. Not sure if anyone else here digs it as much as I do, but seeing as how I grew up in a similar pretty dysfunctional family (granted, nowhere near as bad as Malcolms family), a lot of the jokes and plots for episodes are really easy to relate to.

Yea I binge watched all 13 hours in 3 days after work...it was that good. I would suggest giving it a shot for 1-2 episodes and see if you are into it. Its a drama, but also has a little gritty feel to it like True Detective or something.

i fucking hate how they are doing another full house season but still haven't gave us another season of arrested development

Was a second Netflix season ever in the plans? I thought it was one season of the show to build up to the movie? The more Arrested Development the better as far as I'm concerned.

i luff tits! in my country tits are revered.
i seen a movie about an angry dwarf [who may have been played by pancho molar] who moves into a vacant train station in rural jersey [but he's from hoboken like pancho molar] and he makes out w/ patricia clarkson who's kinda rad in an 'older lady i'd like to bang soon before she dies' sorta way and he's got a peurto rican buddy w/ a lunch truck. the dwarf is one of those idiot rail fans who don't hop trains but just sorta obsess over them but he's got a real smart haircut and a neat way of talking. everyone wants a piece of the dwarf and understandably, he's the dwarf that dreams are made of. i don't wanna spoil it too much but it's a good movie if you're into dwarves. and jersey. and trains.

I know many people have mentioned it but god damn the office is such a good show. I just finished the series and man I've never been so attached to the characters before. I almost just feel like starting over again since I don't know what other show I can follow up with. I know parks and rec should be the one I try next but I hear the first season is worth skipping. I'll probably just watch the office again cause I'm guessing I missed a bunch of random little things.

EDIT:
Some of the finale quotes are actually so deep. I can't believe a show that made me cringe and laugh so much had such powerful stuff in it as well. Alright I think I finally got all I wanted to say out.

"Everyday when I came here, all I wanted to do was leave. So why in the world, does it feel so hard to leave right now... "-Darryl Philbin

"I wish there was a way to know that your in the good 'ol days before you've actually left them" - Andy Bernard

Oh I'm trying to watch the fucking dwarf railroader shit as we speak. That old bitch is quite the cheddar cheese girl (she goes nice with wine). I just don't want to eat her grilled cheese sandwich. Big tits blue hair scissor movie is called "Blue is the color" I believe. That and "Sleepaway III" was pretty good and had lots of classy 1980's horror movie tits. If I got a time machine I'd definitely go back and fuck the main character from that movie. She's got this bitchy punk rock thing and she'd probably murder me with a tent stake. If you ever want the western new england history lesson on Paul Revere I'm sure you'll have a barrel full of offended looks for me. It involves "the plymouth crack rock" and maybe calling your town "the Worcester homestead"

the beastie boys already covered most of the paul revere story and he's buried in downtown boston across from the low to highs. i usedta fuck w/ all the sleepaway camp movies, in fact i wanted dirtnek to put her ender of part one where she's got a penis and a severed head in her hands and everyone's like 'angela is a boy!' but he forgot just like he forgot to put 'whiteboyz' in our video. maybe this yr.

If it wasn't for Joslins part though i dont think anyone would ever rewatch that video.

"The Cobbler" starring Adam Sandler was pretty alright. A lil uncomfortable to watch at times but definitely not the worst movie.
"My Mistress" is pretty funny, it's about a 16 year old boy and a Dominatrix in Europe.
"Sisterhood of night" is about high school girls that think they're witches. It's like The Craft but with actual high school girls. It's prob more for high school kids to watch but i didn't exactly complain.
"Hits" is pretty cool it makes fun of Brooklyn hipster geeks and teenage girls at the same time
"Dirty Mary and Crazy Larry" starring Peter Fonda is a pretty kick ass 70's movie, def watch.
"Zombeavers" is okay. Tits and stop motion animation. I don't think it has much replay value.

"Joe" starring Nicholas Cage is fucking awesome. Must see.
"John Rabe" with Steve Buscemi is really good too.


"Wetlands" is about a longboarder chick that sticks vegetables up her snatch. There's a scene where she's masturbating by putting an avocado seed up there and sure enough an avocado plant sprouts out of her chotch. Maybe the best thing ever. 

"Snowpiercer"- meh but I bet some of you will like it.

Just finished a show called "Lie to Me" it was really good, the main character rules on the show but it only lasted 3 seasons

You guys remember the show "The Slap"? that got posted on here before. Well thats on netflix and i might watch it just to see how bad it really is. Also it says it came out in 2011? that can't be right, right?

EDIT: hold up, there are two shows that are the same. Why the hell would they reboot this show?

Tina Fey's new show "Unbreakable is alright, It's corny and silly but also entertaining, reminds me of "Don't Trust the B---- in Apartment 23".

"Hit & Miss" is great but the first episode is awful. Other than that, it's really dark and fucked up, plus it stars Chloë Sevigny <3 <3 <3  :-* Probably the best show I've seen since Breaking Bad.

I tried watching The Motivation 2 again and just no, God was it boring. Too much hyperbole.

Anyone here watch the show Tyrant? 

I stumbled on it randomly one night when my drunk girlfriend thought she was putting on Sons of Anarchy (which is really, really corny btw) and we ended up watching the Tyrant pilot and holy shit it got me hooked right away.  Finished the rest of season 1, it w as really good... obviously has it's share of dramatic tv show cliche's and the overall gist of everybody in the middle east speaking English, but for the most part the acting is fantastic and really well made.

I watched Filth last night and it was a really good film. I thought it was going to be a raunchy comedy about a scottish cop being a bastard but I like how it went Dark pretty quick. Highly recommend if you liked Frank or Trainspotting.

Just saw the first 2 episodes of Narcos and I'm hooked. Have you finished the series yet? does it get better or at least keep its momentum?

Been re-watching the entire series of prison break lately too. Did anyone hear about them coming out with a season 5 next year? sounds interesting.

It keeps getting better and better, the only problem i had with it was it was basically all subtitles. Which wasn't a huge problem because i also watched Lilyhammer and i liked that show a lot.

This movie was really good and for sure worth a watch. It basically all takes place in a black room where all these people are standing on those red circles with the arrows pointing to them. They all have to vote on who gets killed one at a time and only one person can make it out. So you literally watch the movie as they're all stuck on these circles trying to figure how/why they are there and figuring out ways to be the last person standing so they can make it out. It gets surprisingly suspenseful, you're pretty much watching them get taken out every couple of minutes as they try to figure out who's worth being the last person standing and getting to survive

Really? I Like Jeselnik. I actually saw him at the Hollywood improv earlier this year and he was great. Even talked shit on Dane Cook which was a surprise guest that night. I get that his humor isn't for everyone but i like the way he delivers the joke with a straight face all the time. Kinda reminds me of Mitch Hedberg.

Did anybody else watch Master of None? For some reason my wife and I watched the whole season and I absolutely hate Aziz Ansari. He basically plays whatever is halfway between Steve and Stefan Urkel. Eric Wareheim is always welcome in my house though.

The Babadook
City of God
City of Men
The Master
Blue Ruin
Punch-Drunk Love
Enron: The Smartest Guys in the Room
Starship Troopers

That original Tim Burton Batman
Masters of the Universe (some of these are guilty pleasures)
Moonrise Kingdom
Melancholia
A Trip to the Moon
The Act of Killing
The Unknown Known
The Final Member
Lost in La Mancha
Whore's Glory
Jesus Camp
Hellraiser (the first one especially, but some of the sequels are fun too)
A Nightmare on Elm Street 2
The Taking of Deborah Logan
Coming to America
Who Framed Roger Rabbit
The Ladykillers
Existenz
Re-Animator
Monster Squad
Let the Right One In
Following
Kagemusha
Oldbboy
Eyes Wide Shut (Kinda sucks actually, but in a lot of ways it's still pretty fun to watch, especially with someone you want to have sex with)
American Beauty
Inglorious Basterds
Pulp Fiction
Reservoir Dogs
Kill Bill 1&2
Serenity
The Iceman
Nightcrawler
Hot Fuzz
Sonatine
Drug War
The Conformist
Infernal Affairs
The Host
Dead Man
Heavenly Creatures
Housebound

The Thin Blue Line
Into the Abyss

John Mulaney's newest standup special on netflix was super funny too, and Hannibal Buress just got a new one added recently, which is probably great.

The leader of the rampart scandal was a black guy who took in a unknown white cop and told him all the secrets of his operation on the first day he met him and then got gunned down in the street ?


Ive seen some stuff that  Cowspiracys numbers were all on the extreme side . Its still scary stuff though

And killing the planet is abit extreme . We could poison all the water and air we breath . And all animals and all humans would die . But the earth would go on and give it 500 years ,5000 or 50000 years and it will go back to normal and build life up again

I dont understand how anybody can like this movie . Its really bad and unrealistic
[close]
It's not really either of those things. Go look up the Rampart scandal.

[close]

The leader of the rampart scandal was a black guy who took in a unknown white cop and told him all the secrets of his operation on the first day he met him and then got gunned down in the street ?


Ive seen some stuff that  Cowspiracys numbers were all on the extreme side . Its still scary stuff though

And killing the planet is abit extreme . We could poison all the water and air we breath . And all animals and all humans would die . But the earth would go on and give it 500 years ,5000 or 50000 years and it will go back to normal and build life up again
Don't be so fucking dense. It's about police corruption, not the color of the person's skin.

I haven't seen "Training Day" all the way through, so my opinion may not be worth much, but I  feel like it didn't age great/others have done similar things better since then. I could see it still being a fun movie to watch tho. Traffic is another older drug movie that's still a good watch.

This isn't on netflix, but the recent movie "Sicario" is great and definitely worth seeking out. In parts I feel like its almost a superior, Mexican drug war version of Training Day, but again, I never saw that movie all the way through, so I could be way off.

Emily Blunt is great, the subject matter is super interesting, and the scenery shots of Arizona are gorgeous. I was hoping for a bit more of  realistic approach, but that's mainly personal preference, cause the movie still does a great job for a major film. Definitely recommended.

 Again, "Sicario" is not on netflix, but if you want to see an even crazier drug cartel movie that is, check out the doc "Cartel Land". It's primarily about the vigilante groups that developed in some areas, to combat the cartels.  Some of the footage the filmmaker got is  insane, and the primary vigilante leader is a pretty intriguing narcissist.

Im not saying police corruption didnt exist or exists today . Im saying as the head or one of the bigger guys in the corruption theres no way he would take in a guy and on the first day explain his whole empire and explain everything and try to recruit the guy

Besides telling the kid his whole master plan and philosophy on the first day . dude drives around and commits crimes that pretty much any legit cop would pick up on and could have been caught by cameras or any good journalist

If you want to make a good cop movie about corruption , sure make it , but make it realistic . Like scerpico

no shit we won't 'kill the planet' only make it unlivable for human beings. if i can't live here, guess what? i consider the planet dead ya semantical dickhead.

but seriously, i hope the numbers were high. fuck me gently w/ a chainsaw! but an ocean w/ no fish left in 2048? that's right around the time i plan on dying so maybe, fuck it. shark tits is gone, he's taking the fish w/ him. put 'the tuna was delish' on my headstone.
someone should update 'the monkeywrench gang' and have the protagonists kill cows, cats and anyone else who threatens indigenous critters. on a long time line perhaps hitler, stalin and chairman mao were the most environmental men and genocide is good for the ecosystem? an indian guy picked me up hitching in NM and said serial killers were part of nature.

Training day wasn't that bad. I grew up in some of the locations they shot at and even i know they overplay the whole LA "gangster" lifestyle but it was still enjoyable. I found End of Watch to be a better portrayal of Cops and Gangsters in La.

The fact that so many movies get "broken down" is a sign you need to think more about how you make movies and write scripts . The amount of movies this youtube channel is covering that shows mistakes , plot holes and shitty writing and so on .

Just cause they break down so many movies doesnt make the mistakes and plot holes none existent

What about all the realistic movies that are realistic then ?

Your point is plenty valid. And Training Day is a reasonably watchable movie. However, any claim that it's a "good" movie flew out the window the moment Denzel said "Poo butt ass."



I've been trying to work that into my vocabulary after watching that YouTube vid last night...

his videos still show huge mistakes and plotholes in the movies . Silly stuff and ridiculous things . Just cause he makes fun of it doesnt mean he CGI things into the movies or edits them in a way to change the movie . What he shows actually happend in the movie

Im not sure if anyone is making a case that the Fast and the furious movies are good . But you will see them at a whole new shit dimension after watching his videos about them 

And as I said , Training Day has huge plot holes , very unrealistic , silly dialogue , bad acting and many other bad things in it

Just an FYI, if you download hola (a chrome extension) you can choose what country the website recognizes you are browsing from. In this way, you can logout of your netflix, choose to be browsing from another country (i.e. Brazil even if you're in the US) and see what they have available in that country.

https://hola.org/

Here's a useful tool for searching what's available in what country.

https://flixsearch.io/

This vastly increases the amount of movies available for you to watch.

Although they could have toned down to he manic editing, Electric Boogaloo was entertaining (if you grew up in the 80's). Total flashback of all the not so great movies I loved as a kid. After learning about the personalities behind them it makes sense now why those movies were always just a bit "off". :)

Flaked has a great soundtrack as well. I got hyped when I heard Car Seat Headrest.
yeah it really does, I was stoked to hear Car Seat Headrest too and then Alex G coming on right after made it even better

My first impression was that it was a little bit of a Californication ripoff, but I was pleasantly surprised. I highly recommend this show! I was bummed I finished it in a night and a half. Hope they do season 2.

Apparantly it's getting really poor reviews. Watched only the first two episodes but I liked it as well.
[close]

I guess it's one of those shows you either really like or kinda.. hate. I liked it alot.
[close]

yeah I noticed that too, lots of bad reviews. I am anxiously awaiting season 2!

I've never seen Californiacation, but I've heard good things. However, I enjoyed Flaked. Not exactly sure what all the critics are ranting about.

Give it another shot. It's a bit of a slow burn, but it's worth it. Season 2 has Cillian Murphy and Tom Hardy together. I haven't been around netflix to watch season 3 yet, but I heard Tom Hardy is in there as well. I'm looking forward to startling bloodline too. The first season was great.

only seen up to season 3 of the killing (the American version) and it was pretty hit and miss. How season 3 ended was straight up ass. But there was some really, really good writing. Is Seattle always that wet and shitty? Good place to film a crime show.

Makes me fucking smoke twice as much as I normally do though haha.

Jessica jones was kinda rad. Started off so good.

Ross Duffer: We love the idea that [the Upside Down] is an environment that is not a great place for a human being to be living in. Will's been there for an entire week, and it's had some kind of effect on him, both emotionally and perhaps physically. The idea is he's escaped this nightmare place, but has he really? That's a place we wanted to go and potentially explore in season two. What effect does living in there for a week have on him? And what has been done to him? It's not good, obviously.



How does Will communicate through the Christmas lights? Even if they showed up when Reality Bites put them up, it's not like touching or willing should have such an effect on our side.

Just finished Stranger Things... goddamn what a fantastic show.  We blew through it so quickly, it's left us with some sort of void where we don't want to start another show... like how do you follow that up?  Cannot wait for another season... and Winona, be still my heart, I am still madly in love with you. 

Not a Netflix show, but I just started watching this:

(http://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a370/misterhayworth/Gomorrah_TV_Series-198380718-large_zpscnzdrbqi.jpg) (http://s15.photobucket.com/user/misterhayworth/media/Gomorrah_TV_Series-198380718-large_zpscnzdrbqi.jpg.html)

Awesome Italian TV show about the Comorra (mafia), based on the amazing movie (and book) with the same name.  Kind of like the Italian version of The Wire, it's a far more street/gritty/violent aka realistic version of the mob than Hollywood type of stuff like the Sopranos or Godfather.  It's a bit more 'action movie' than the movie, but still disturbing and doesn't glorify at all. 

And if you haven't seen the movie, I highly recommend you do so.

Narcos season 2

Crazy to think there will more likely be a 3rd season without Pablo and it will be about the Cali Cartel. Which is cool because Murphy and Pena are great characters and all But Pablo always steals the show. I wonder if they are going to do an episode on the killing of Andres Escobar which happened after Pablo died, i saw they teased it in the 1st or 2nd episode of season 2. That was a crazy fucked up story.

Luke Cage is made corny. I get that it's based off a comic but damn it's cringe worthy. Plus the fact everyone is raving about it might have ruined it for me

"Easy" was watchable... Some stories better than other. Some were super boring.

"People just do nothing" is fucking rad. Love it.

Anybody else obsessed with longmire? We just renewed our sub to Netflix and discovered it kept going. We started watching it on A&E when I came out but fell off when we heard season two was supposed to be the last one. We are a few episodes away from finishing season 2 atm.

Love it. I am on the last couple episodes of season 5.

Just found out that the new season of Black Mirror is coming out in a few weeks.
Really excited, I didn't even think it was coming out this year

IT'S OUT TODAY I'M SO EXCITED

For when you eventually are done binging that, I suggest Dead Set. It's another British show made by Charlie Brooker (same guy who made BM) with a similar dark satirical feel to it. It's only 6 episodes and is about the cast of the reality show Big Brother and what happens during the zombie apocalypse.

The soundtrack is dope...but for me It was all down hill after Cottonmouth/ Stryker introduction ...the last 2 episodes were disappointing for sure
Only person who kept it live till the last episode was Shades

stoked Black Mirror is out today

Yeah, watched the first episode of the new Black Mirror season tonight
Really enjoyed it, that show hits on some many points of my interest.

Gonna try to just watch an episode a week though, rather than binging it, in the hope that I'll appreciate it more.

Never would have thought that Charlie Brooker, the funny, sardonic, insightful host of a BBC (?) series on tv criticism, that I used to watch on youtube like ten years ago, would wind up creating and writing one of the most unique and interesting sci-fi shows of the past 5 years.

When I saw Animal Kingdom (one of my favourite movies) I thought sweet, they have the movie up!! Win.

Only to find its an American TV show based off of the movie. I've watched 3 eps so far and its pretty bad. Pope isn't even scary. I'll still give it a few more eps because it did have some kinda cool scenes and I wanna see how Pope does the girl.

Been enjoying some of the historical TV show as of yet including: Sparticus, The Borgias, The Tudor, Peeky Blinders, and Hatfield's vs McCoys.

all of them have a good amount of plot twists, violence-blood, foul language, nudity, and politics.

Just finished the first season of The Fall.  Thought it was really great... Gillian Anderson really bothers me, but overall great acting and gets pretty dark and intense.

Just started watching Peaky Blinders, seems pretty cool.  Great sets/clothing.  I'm always thrown off when shows and movies from a specific time period use modern music, but I've been desperate for a new show so I'll go with it.

I can't tell if Man in The High Castle is good or fucking regular. Or if I'm fucking regular.
Pretty sure it's dumb as fuck. Still watching though, like, what if they really did win?  ???

I made it six episodes before reading a synopsis. It was as exciting as watching the show (not very). The premise is the most interesting part.

Cheap Thrills is a pretty good flick. Not going to win any academy awards but worth a watch if you're bored... The story centers around two old skateboard buddies and has Agent Orange in the soundtrack.

New season of Maron just came on, its the final season. I like Maron more than Louie. Louie got way too dark for me on season 4, i watched the latest season but completely forget if i liked it or not. Maron has that perfect balance of dark humor

Wasn't he in an episode of that Netflix show "easy"? Also i just like him cause hes all about his cats

EDIT: Also the most underrated comedian with his own show was Jim Jefferies show "Legit", wish that lasted longer

Marons whining is actually why i like the show

I listen to Maron because of his guests but I think he's kinda a hack....and while it's accurate but it's annoying that in they have writers who can write better shit for him to say....but he's always the weakest character in every scene....

There's been a ton of whiny comedians that are funny......

I watch 'please like me' right now it's ok....

Got a new laptop and been trying to watch some movies in bed before I go to sleep. Over the last week I watched Cheap Thrills, The Babadook, and In Order of Disappearance.

None blew my mind, but as someone said, Cheap Thrills is entertaining if you're bored. Also funny to see Preston from Cant Hardly Wait playing a tough guy role.

The Babadook was pretty interesting. I thought the kid actor did a great job. I'm a big ol wuss when it comes to scary movies and everyone told me how creepy The Babadook is, but for some reason it didn't seem too scary. I did get the literal chills at one scene though.

In Order of Disappearance is a revenge thriller based in some Norweigan country. It has its flaws but also very entertaining. It's got a dark humor aspect to it. The final 30 seconds has one of the more random things I've seen in a movie and it made me die laughing. I won't say what it is, but hopefully someone has seen it. And on a fun fact side note, Liam Neeson liked this movie so much, he's doing a remake coming out in 2018.

she's rad and her husband is played by deputy marshall raylan givens aka timothy olyphant [why not just call yourself elephant you pussy? you're not fooling anyone w/ the oly].

I was barely paying attention to it but i made sure if i saw Adam Sandler i would turn it off, god that dude is just a huge letdown now. Ill never forgive him for what he did to Joe Dirt 2

Just watched "It Follows" last night and thought it was pretty solid. It had such great reviews and praise as a smart horror movie, and I definitely thought it was different, but not sure it was as amazing as I thought it would be based on the talk surrounding it. But, if you like scary movies, I'd recommend it for sure. It was super entertaining.

I also just watched "I Am Not a Serial Killer," which is sort of a horror movie, but goofy in some ways. It's got a Stranger Things vibe to it, tapping into some nostalgia. I thought the main character did an amazing job playing his role. Another one that was really entertaining.

It was kind of odd watching that second episode. My dad picked me up from LAX and we were driving to his house while they were chasing OJ and AC.

Just started watching this, 2 episodes in.  Pretty entertaining so far, I particularly like the scenes where the defense lawyers get together to talk strategy.  Travolta is great (in fact, almost all the acting is great).

My lady and I were talking about how crazy it is that we remember exactly where we were when both the chase and the verdict took place.  Like it was some monumental moment in our lives like September 11th. 

A few gripes though... 1:  The fucking Kardashian product placement throughout the first two episodes.  I realize Robert K. was an integral part of the story, but seeing them go out of their way to mention and show the kids is pretty fucking annoying, damn near ruined the whole thing.  When they all started chanting Kardashian I had to shut it off.   2)  Ross... that guy fucking sucks.  He's basically the same character as Friends so at times I feel like I'm watching that show.

Its only the first two episodes that i remember any scenes with the whole Kardashian family, after that its Just Rob. Also i like David Schwimmer just not in Friends, he was okay when i watched the Iceman a while back, or thats how at least i remember. He was pretty great in Curb for the season he was on it, dude was a total dick in that season and you never see him act like that in any of his characters

Sorry to deviate from the suggested movies, but I watched one of the worst movies I've seen last night. It's called the ABC's of Death, and I thought the concept had potential. It had pretty bad reviews, but the idea is they picked 26 filmmakers from around the world and each one had to make a 4-5 minute short about death using their given letter of the alphabet.

I figured there would be some clever ones since there was such a wide array of filmmakers, but I thought all of them sucked except maybe 2 or 3. So, I guess my point in this is if you see it while scrolling through Netflix and get intrigued, scroll past that shit as fast as you can.

It was so bad! Unbelievably there was a sequel which was even worse. There was so much variety it was amazing how many sucked. I went in thinking that even if the majority of the films weren't great they would at least be rapid fire enough that it would never be boring. How wrong I was.

My thoughts exactly. I kept thinking as a new one started, "Well, this one can't be as bad as that last one," and went through that process basically 23 or 24 times.

He's a decent actor who has had a few small parts. I didn't recognize him until I rewatched it, but he was a filming crew member on Curb Your Enthusiasm, in season 7...I think it was the episode with Mocha Joe.

I didn't care for the X-Files 15 years ago, but it's so well-written, I barely finish a drink per episode. I just finished that Todd Margaret show with David Cross and  William Arnett.

I've been watching The People Vs. OJ Simpson. This series is more current than ever (except for maybe when the judgment was going on, of course...). It's great to see how it relates to the issues of today. It's odd to see Cuba Gooding Jr. acting, and Travolta looks fake as fuck, like a doll or something. It's slow-paced, but I'm loving it and the trial is one of the greatest clusterfucks of the last 20 years.

Only seen 2 eps so far but I'm into it. Now you'll have me looking for shitty acting. I think it'd just the nature of any "superhero" story to be overly dramatic. Comes with the territory I suppose...

i agree the fighting sequences looks kinda fake and boring. a lot of bad cuts in thoese scenes too. but yeah, it's pretty enjoyable overall. jessica jones also had shitty dialogue and action, but i liked that show as well.

I actually enjoy Agents of Shield which has some pretty bad stories/plots/acting, but this shit was on a level worse than that show...
well the acting comes off like its a lot of peoples first rodeo.  Rosario, Trinity, and Madame Gao were great...but everyone else is just a drag.
Was only feeling the fight club scenes tbh.

yea i got into it late, but once i did I binged the 2 seasons. A lot of it should have been copied into Iron Fist especially 100 eyes...oh well

I've been hearing some not too good things about Iron Fist and having never really liked him in the comics, probably won't watch. I don't remember the first season of Arrow to well but does it seem like most super hero shows have a rocky start? I felt like Luke Cage was a bit of a letdown.

I really do hope they get their shit together for Season 2...It would mean Iron First would need a lot more martial arts training, film gets more budget , and potentially the director for DareDevil for it to shine better than season 1

For me the hiearchy of Marvel TV shows goes DareDevil --> Jessica Jones --> Luke Cage ---> Agents of Shield -->Agent Carter -->Iron Fist
and I still havent seen Agent Carter  :-X

Legion is an xmen show, so not part of the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

Saw first episode of Iron Fist. Can't really say much but Finn Jones is just so meh in it. I'm a fan of Jessica Henwick and she's a babe for life too. Can't wait to see what she brings to the show.

It's one of those shows where you have to watch because it leads up to the next show (The Defenders) and might not really know whats going on unless you see it.

honestly with Iron Fist you can skip from ep.1 to ep.6 ...and then skip to ep.13 and youd miss nothing

'wentworth' is a gnarlier, for serious 'orange is the new black' set in australia. everything in straya is 10 X gnar. that should be the national motto.

I got done Iron Fist yesterday and yeah its definitely the weakest out of all the marvel shows on netflix but i still enjoyed it.


I just tried this new show called Hap and Leonard. Has a pretty good cast, Michael K. Williams (Omar from the wire), James Purefoy (The killer in the following), and Christina Hendricks. Sundance makes it and there's only one season so far on netflix (6 episodes) but the show is still running, it started last year. Only negative i can come up with is their southern accents, i just don't think its that believable. Anyway check it out, or don't, i don't care

I like shark tits review better

I'm really enjoying this new sitcom Life in pieces that just got added on to netflix, one season so far. It's kind of like modern family show but maybe a little more r rated and Tom Hanks son is pretty funny in it. Also the dude from Legit is in it, the bald one and he kills it in it.

Last half of Love season 2 was like watching a train wreck and gave me relationship anxiety, but definitely looking forward to season 3 whenever that's out.

Started watching Riverdale this weekend, only 5 episodes in, but as someone who grew up on Archie comics I'm feeling it.  Pretty over the top at times but definitely entertaining and all the characters bring something to the table.  All the parents are such assholes, and I'm waiting for Ethel aka Barb to get iced a la Stranger Things.

I remember when it first came out there were a bunch of news coverage about that movie because of the whole Simple Jack thing in the movie, just so good though

Just watched it last night after this thread and thought it was pretty hilarious. I agree RDJ stole the show. His role is so good throughout the entire thing.

I watched the Midnight Meat Train the other night and wasn't really impressed. It was an interesting concept, but I just thought the ending was too lame. After reading some reviews, I had higher hopes, but maybe other people will like it more.

This Adam Sandler movie reminds of the 30 rock episode where Jenna stars in that horror movie but Jack comes in and helps. He helps by getting a ton of sponsors for the movie that the movie is just complete shit but it doesn't matter because they already made their money back and more because the amount of sponsors they had for the movie, so it doesn't matter if anyone likes or even watches the movie.

Train to Busan just got on Netflix and it's intense as fuck. I'm generally pretty over the whole zombie craze but this one did some really cool stuff with it.

The People vs. O.J. Simpson was also surprisingly good, and I don't even give a shit about O.J.  I was like 6 when the trial was going on so I didn't realize all the different stuff that happened behind the scenes. Definitely worth a watch.

I've watched the UK version of the Office in a couple of sittings... really cringey. It's the kind of humor that I like, but I can't stand Ricky Gervais's face. Guess I have to see how the American version is like.

Also, happy 2015, as I've started to watch Black Mirror. The show hasn't impressed me too much so far, but I'm willing to blame it on the hype and the high expectations that I've got from people. It's fun and enthralling if you can treat it as a new Twilight Zone, but the satire feels heavy-handed and the endings are predictable. I'm going to watch the series to the end, though, with an open-heart, if only for the conversation.

I didn't like Steve Carell until I watched the US version. I think I've watched it all the way through about 3 times now. One of my all time favorite shows for sure. I've never tried the UK version because I'm a salty American and I've heard too many times from high-horse riding europeans that it's so much better than our version.

Not a movie, and i assume youre already all over this, but Jane the virgin is back for more.

I've watched the UK version of the Office in a couple of sittings... really cringey. It's the kind of humor that I like, but I can't stand Ricky Gervais's face. Guess I have to see how the American version is like.
[close]


I didn't like Steve Carell until I watched the US version
. I think I've watched it all the way through about 3 times now. One of my all time favorite shows for sure. I've never tried the UK version because I'm a salty American and I've heard too many times from high-horse riding europeans that it's so much better than our version.

I was the same, i didnt mind the movies he was in but was never huge on him but after the office i was completely won over. Michael scott may be one of the greatest tv characters ever. He made that show, i still watched when he left but Ed helms couldnt quite cut it.

Consider me sold on Black Mirror. Especially after the White Bear episode, I hated it until the twist, now it's fucked me up royally. The Netflix guys have a great hand for their "originals", I'd never hear about this show if not for them. Worth every cent.

Just watched "I Don't Feel At Home in This World Anymore" last night with Elijah Wood. I kept seeing it as suggested to me and gave it a whirl. I thought it was pretty darn entertaining. The dark humor mixture can be pretty great if done correctly.

NOT ON NETFLIX but if you have amazon prime i highly suggest you watch Bosch. It's a great dark detective show, im about to be done season 1 and I think they just added season 3. I could see that this might relate to The Wire as a good cop show, also someone from The Wire is in it, definitely not better but its up there

I went to a focus group about that show before season 1 aired and they made me watch the first 3 eps and I thought it was the goofiest shit ever but when I went to the group everyone else loved the show and by the end the whole group and all the moderators were really sick of me. Anyway that show sucks and they gave me a $250 visa card to tell them so.

Starting to think they forgot about that show. Also, I heard the reason why they did like each episode as just one person is because everyone is too famous now and they can't get them all together for a scene. Hoping that's not the case for this season

I've been looking for Patton for a long time, but could never find a version where the subtitles worked out. Turns out Netflix (recently?) added it. What a man, what a character, what a great movie. It's a nice, human portrait of the general if anyone's interested. I'm not usually into war films, but I'm glad I finally caught it.

um yeah i'm right behind you..

i thought that was a documentary about G.L.O.W. with the Fabulous Moulah and all that, had no idea it was a show with Alison Brie.  

New season of Bloodline is great (still have a few more episodes to go).  I am rooting for Kevin to disappear from this earth so I guess they succeed in the frustration of his story line.  The show is great, but it kinda needs Danny.  That guy was too good of an actor and really made a huge impact.

I've mentioned this before but if you haven't watched the show Gomorrah I highly recommend you do so.  Quite possibly the best show on TV (well, Italian TV.. and it's on iTunes not Netflix or Hulu).  Absolutely worth the $$ though.

As someone who hates CGI, I found the use of it in this to be really well executed.  Loved how they made the evil, Monsanto-like corporation AND the ALF look bad.

Netflix recently added "Extraordinary: the Stan Romanek Story"

Complete rubbish. I really enjoy hearing anything about UFO/Aliens, but this is just mocking that community of people who may or may not have been actually "abducted". At the beginning it seemed sincere and genuine, until about 20 mins in when he just so happened to film a "peeping tom" alien looking through his window at night. That's when I started laughing out loud. Add alien puppets and light orbs on strings, I may rewatch it for unintentional comedy gold.

Watched that movie Lion the other day and it was pretty good, kinda slow at some points but I still enjoyed it. Rouge One is supposed to be added July 18th looking forward to finally seeing that.

Might be only on BR Netflix then. It advertised to me all of the time. I mentioned the movie to a lot of people and they told me that Netflix customizes suggestions on the main page and all. The film is great and thanks to everyone who chimed in.

The way the action in Castlevania was animated was real weird to me. It felt low stakes, like a fight in a dream. It also kind of reminded me of that Nickolodean Avatar show stylistically.

I can see the Avatar look when they make funny faces.


Kind of a stretch to call it a season - more like a chopped up pilot.

Decided to watch Inglorious Bastards again, since it's been several years and they recently put it on Netflix. The undergorund bar scene is awesome on so many levels.

on the better side of things:" el chapo. it's neat to see him start small and going to see pablo escobar is like skating in front of powell and peralta back in the day, granting you a life of riches [or death if you bail your flatground routine].

I'm digging this show so far.  It definitely has a Breaking Bad/Bloodline-type of feel to it. 

What's funny is that even though it's obviously not a comedy it seems like he's still playing Michael Bluth.  Still has that same sense of  humor and the smart-ass remarks, just the setting is different.  Makes me wanna re-watch AD next.

Forgive me if someone already posted this, I didn't feel like digging back to far. If you enjoy older horror movies, I would recommend "The Void". It has elements that reminded me of a mix of The Thing, House of 1000 Corpses, and Hellraiser while still being all its own. Worth a watch if you like messed up movies.

Killzone 2 (aka SPL 2) with Wu Jing and Tony Jaa was pretty good and the end fight was great.

No connection to the original Sha Po Lam except for the pessimistic vibe. Wu Jing was a bad guy in the first one, now he's the lead.

Watched the documentary "Drunk Stoned Brilliant Dead" about National Lampoon.  Pretty great watch... I always loved looking at some of those old N.L. magazines (similar to Mad but way more adult and way more harsh).  A lot of drugs, sex and amazing comedy.

Interesting when they started doing records/radio and all the Second City guys came in, which were basically a who's who of the funniest people to ever walk the planet: Belushi, Chevy Chase, Bill and Brian Murray, Gilda Radner, Harold Ramis, etc..  and how they were all stolen for SNL, and eventually went on to make those great movies.

Great watch!

Norm Macdonald is one of the greatest comedic minds of our time.  His stand up specials are great, but do yourself a favor and go on youtube and watch his appearances on Letterman/Conan, etc..  For some reason that setting is when he really shines through.

I just watched the new Netflix original Death Note and thought it was super entertaining. I was reading up on it before I watched it and was prepped for nothing amazing. It got pretty bad reviews, and it was adapted from an anime series, which I know nothing about, but everyone was tearing apart the director for ruining it. He's done some other movies I really liked, so I gave it a shot and enjoyed it.

Just finished it and it was great. Pena is better as a narrator/lead then murphy IMO. This seasons story was more captivating than the last and it had less to do with bloodshed on every episode. They really make you feel for the villains at times over the protagonist, you really want Jorge to get out of the cartel without getting caught. Also i wanted to see more of Pacho, he stole the show on most of his scenes.

I heard that Netflix eventually wants to do that in the future, just only have Netflix originals on there. They basically want to be their own network. It's not their fault though on whats happening now with Fox shows, Fox owns a part of hulu so they don't want to give their competitor shows.

About to start the New season of Narcos, has anyone started watching it yet?
[close]

I really liked the first 2 seasons but I can't get myself to keep watching season 3 with Boyd Holbrook being gone  >:(
[close]

Started it tonight, it's alright. Pena is still a good character, but so far that's all this one has going for it.
[close]

Just finished it and it was great. Pena is better as a narrator/lead then murphy IMO. This seasons story was more captivating than the last and it had less to do with bloodshed on every episode. They really make you feel for the villains at times over the protagonist, you really want Jorge to get out of the cartel without getting caught. Also i wanted to see more of Pacho, he stole the show on most of his scenes.
[close]
I like it so far. Pacho is definitely a good character. I've also been watching El Chapo on Netflix. It's super good and in the same vein as Narcos.
Finished it last night. Those last 3 episodes were too intense. Ended up being my favorite season.  David might be the most unlikable character on any show ever. Worse than Joffrey.

I finished it 2 days ago. I felt that it started slow but then went really intense more towards the end, loved it!
The guy who plays Chepe (whos real name is Pepe) is portuguese and usually does portuguese romantic shows and some other random stuff, so I was really interested in what kind of character he would play in this. Kinda disapointed that he only appeared a few times, thought he would be a bigger part of the story.

Yeah, 3 might be my favourite Narcos season.  Pacho and Chepe were so good, and loved the contrast between David's character in this and Broad City.  By the end of it I really had no sympathy for Jorge.  Has anyone heard anything about a season 4?  The ending definitely hinted at the possibility of a Mexican storyline, but it would be starting really fresh since we haven't met any new characters that would fit into it.

That Mexican pilot guy? He was talking a lot about Juarez and the timing being right with NAFTA. I think they could run with that.

Me and my girl looked up season 4 and your girl is true. I think the article just came out today. Basically, no one is returning and they are starting fresh. They renewed for a season 4 when they renewed a season 3

One of the things that stuck with me about that El Chapo show though was the story one of his close friends. Some dude seduced his wife, convinced her to run away with him, then murdered her, kidnapped the two children and threw them off of a bridge. Fucking chilling, and a real story.  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/H%C3%A9ctor_Luis_Palma_Salazar

New season of Black Mirror coming up soon. Scariest series right now imho. 

I was begining to wonder if they're were going to make another season. Seriously one of the best shows out. Way too actuate in terms of predicting the near future and what might happen with the human society, it's way freaky.

If you like BM you should check out the mini series Dead Set. It's basically the length of a movie. It's by Charlie Brooker as well. Definitely similar in feel and message except it's a zombie thing.

I enjoyed that. At the end he said all the jokes he did we're jokes that he first tried when he was starting at that club, so anyone who's familiar with the show or his stand up will hear a few they've heard before, but overall I thought it was great.

I'm on the last two episodes now and I agree with you that the first episode wasn't that attention grabbing, except for the first scene. Slow build up but I really enjoy the interaction between to two FBI agents throughout out the season. Some episodes are fucked up which reminds me of the first season of true detective. I have a feeling that if they make a season 2 of mindhunter it will go a lot better, just like I said though its a slow build up

2 Netflix originals were just added within the last couple of days and I really liked both of them. 1922 and Wheelman. Wheelman is more just a fun thriller, but definitely entertaining. Also, I just watched Ragnarok, which is like a Nordic, low budget Jurassic Park in a far-reaching sense, but I also thought it was entertaining. Nothing groundbreaking, but a fun watch. I feel like I've tapped out all the best Netflix movies and hidden gems, so I'm happy when I find ones that just don't suck.

Raw was great too.  If you guys can hang with subtitles, it's super good.

Finished it yesterday. Didn't mind the slow pace and the performances were solid throughout. I really enjoyed Zodiac and this unsurprisingly reminded me of the movie.

Noticed they're starting one of those Talking Dead type of shows for Stranger Things. Ugh.

i enjoyed the first season, but i didnt think it deserved the type of praise it got. to me it felt too much like an ABC family version of a scifi show but with a little more swearing and slightly better writing. season two though, i thought it was great. rarely a dull moment and every episode ended with a cliffhanger that pulled you right into the next one. all the characters were great, even the ones i didn't like from the first season. winona is seriously looking better and better as the years pass. total babe.

i dont usually like all the super popular shows that everyone raves over, but i give this one the thumbs up. its pretty predictable, but definitely entertaining. i can hardly sit still and pay attention for an hour long show and we killed everything from episode two onward yesterday. never done that before.

They canceled House of Cards because of the whole Kevin Spacey sexual assault. Never really got into the show but I'm kind of glad they did this but kind of not glad too. I mean Kevin Spacey shouldn't be on the show anymore so I would think just to keep the show and kill him off because everyone else on the show didn't do anything wrong.

Been hearing mixed reviews on Stranger Things 2, anyone care to shed some light on that?

Binged it on Sunday, It's overall 9/10 for me
I think these bugged me and may have snagged other people (no Spoilers)

- the dramatic introduction on #8 for ep 1?  They barley show her 
- Too much crying from 11 during the whole show..kind of cringe worthy at times
- How everyone story merges in the end was too predictable


They canceled House of Cards because of the whole Kevin Spacey sexual assault. Never really got into the show but I'm kind of glad they did this but kind of not glad too. I mean Kevin Spacey shouldn't be on the show anymore so I would think just to keep the show and kill him off because everyone else on the show didn't do anything wrong. Then again Netflix is usually a tight group so I would think they have other plans for the other actors for upcoming projects

Show wasn't that good after season 3 IMO, last season did nothing for me.  Spacey coming out was no surprise either

Agree with everything JB said about Stranger Things.  There was no better way to spend a hungover Saturday.

I read somewhere that Netflix was planning on pulling House Of Cards way before this Spacey thing happened, but it likely sped up the process.

Mindhunter was the shit and I cannot wait for season 2.  Tried to watch s02e01 of Riverdale because I was into season 1, but after watching actual good shows with good acting I couldn't do it.

1922 was really good.  Watch one episode of Fargo, seemed decent, might watch more.  Hopefully something else that's really good comes out soon.

I always wanted to give that a try because I do enjoy some CW shows, like the DC comics ones. The flash is definitely the best one out of that group but the others aren't really that exciting. Ill watch the others if I have nothing else to watch. Guess I have my answer with Riverdale now

Netflix is getting rid of It's always sunny next month. So if you never saw it or want to give it one last go then do it. Guess they got a better offer from Hulu, so if you have Hulu good news for you.

Have no idea what the fuck is going on at Netflix, they seem to be getting rid of way more shows recently than they ever did last year. They also took of some seasons of Family Guy off and even though I'm not the biggest Family Guy fan, it was just an easy show to have on while sleeping

Kevin Spacey tried to feel me up at a bar once.  He tried to feel up any other young guy within stumbling distance.  He's probably an alcoholic too, he was literally passed out on the sidewalk when I left.  Pretty sure his reputation is widely known in the industry, so Netflix acting like it was some kind of secret is bullshit.

A lot of networks are pulling their shows off Netflix because they are going to be doing their own streaming service with their shows. I read some big article on it, and how because of it, Netflix is going to try to make a lot more original content to keep up. But yea, it sucks in the meantime. The shows and movies they added for November was pathetic.

Finished season 1 of Big Mouth recently.  I thought it might be a bit too crude for my taste based on the 1st episode, but it ended up being pretty witty and funny for a show based on dick jokes.  Being a big fan of Kroll Show probably played a part as well.

The Witch was a decent thriller/horror movie, but I don't speak 17th century English so subtitles came in handy.

Gf has been watching This Is Us, based off a recommendation from my mom, sooo yeah.  The fact that I don't mind it makes me question a lot about myself.

Anybody ever watch the netflix show called Glitch?

It was always on my list to watch but there was only one season and it came out in 2015, so I thought it was canceled. Why I haven't gave it a shot till now because they just came out with a season 2. First episode wasn't the best but still kind of decent for me to watch another but after that you get kind of hooked in. Definitely recommend it if you currently have nothing else to watch

His youtube videos are hilarious. He basically just plays Call of Duty and camps in a corner and gets extremely mad himself when he doesn't do good, even though he always like number one on the team. His youtube channel is "completed it mate"


Also can't believe Netflix spent 90 million on that movie, what the fuck were they thinking?

Christmas stuff to watch on Netflix:

GREMLINS

Trading Places (Bonus points cause it's based/filmed in Philly.)

The Nightmare Before Christmas

Mystery Science Theater 3000- Santa Claus Conquers the Martians

MST 3K The Return- The Christmas that Almost Wasn't (This movie is hilarious. Santa winds up broke, because of a bad real estate deal, and the children need to bail him out.)

Black Mirror- White Christmas (The Christmas special with Jon Hamm)

How the Grinch Stole Christmas (The live action Jim Carrey one. Probably only watch this if you're drunk/high, and have some nostalgia attached to the film cause you saw it when you were young. I watched it last night, and it's seriously bad, but a kinda fun watch if you have friends over.)

The Twilight Zone- Night of the Meek (Season 2), The Changing of the Guard (Season 3)

Daredevil first which introduces the Punisher in the second season. Then Jessica Jones and after that Luke Cage. You could probably skip Iron Fist and just watch the Defenders after Luke Cage. Iron Fist was the weakest of the shows, seemed rushed. I still enjoyed it but definitely my least favorite out of everyone

That third episode was complete fucking bullshit. It was bland, uninspiring, pure sci fi with nothing to take from it. The characters are shallow and it's all shock value. The second wasn't too good either, but it does feel like a proper episode, and I really appreciate the shorter length. USS Callister was really neat, though.

Kill the Messenger

"Based on the true story of journalist Gary Webb. The film takes place in the mid-1990s, when Webb uncovered the CIA's past role in importing huge amounts of cocaine into the U.S. that was aggressively sold in ghettos across the country to raise money for the Nicaraguan Contras' rebel army."

The movie itself ain't gonna change your life but it's an interesting story.

Ha fair enough criticisms, but I really enjoyed the 3rd episode actually.
A lot of that may be due to how great Iceland looked in it, though.

Callister and Hang the DJ were probably my two favorites of the season.
The finale got mixed reviews, and it might have gone on too long, but I liked it by the end. Super dark.

It's still super cold and windy here, so I think I'm just gonna stay inside and watch the Tim Burton Batman movies today.
Maybe Bright too, if I'm feeling especially masochistic.

Started this one last night and was laughing my ass off. Both of the main characters are great.

Just started watching Stranger Things season 2 (had to binge watch Game of Thrones first) and I don't know... I'm not really into it.  It's ok, entertaining... but i feel like they bought into their own hype and are just going for cute 80's reference jokes.  It's not bad but not as good as season 1.

Watching a doc called "The Real Football Factories" about football hooligans and the cool clothes they wear, etc... entertaining for a yank like me and our boring shitty sports fans.

New Chappelle specials were both great. 

Put The Secret Life of Pets on for my kid, hoping it would keep him distracted... ended up elbowing him out of the way, grabbing my dog and watching it with a tear in my eye.  Great movie.

I saw it a while back, but just rewatched "I Am Not a Serial Killer" last night and still loved it. The main kid actor does such a great job in my opinion. Fun fact is he was the kid in Where the Wild Things Are.

That third episode was complete fucking bullshit. It was bland, uninspiring, pure sci fi with nothing to take from it. The characters are shallow and it's all shock value. The second wasn't too good either, but it does feel like a proper episode, and I really appreciate the shorter length. USS Callister was really neat, though.
[close]
Ha fair enough criticisms, but I really enjoyed the 3rd episode actually.
A lot of that may be due to how great Iceland looked in it, though.

Callister and Hang the DJ were probably my two favorites of the season.
The finale got mixed reviews, and it might have gone on too long, but I liked it by the end. Super dark.

We're up to ep 5 and I think this season kind of sucks. Callister was good but inconsequential. Arkangel abandoned a much much more interesting plot halfway through the episode and instead did something shitty and boring. Crocodile had the goofiest SNL non-ending and again abandoned a much more interesting plot. The dating one I don't remember the name of was fine, the lead actress was really good so it was enjoyable. Metalhead, the last one I watched, was hilarious and my favorite of the season so far.

USS Callister would have been more interesting if it didn't feel like a longer drawn out version of the one in White Christmas with the girl who made toast for Jon Hamm. I think it didn't help that I kept thinking it was the same girl from that one too, seriously look at them.

Winter has me being lazy, but re-watching a bunch of good movies at least.

Today I watched Jackie Brown (which is so entertaining, I never even realized it's like 2 1/2 hours long til now), Full Metal Jacket, Hot Fuzz, and The Prestige.

I kind of want to watch that The Mist mini-series, even though it's gotten pretty much only bad reviews, just cause I love the short story, and want to see how much they fucked it up.

Super Dark Times.  The title put me off for awhile, but it's excellent.  No spoilers because as shit unfolds, it's really cool.  It's 13-15 year old boys in the 90s and they have to cover up an accident.  It nails boys and especially the way they talk that you never see in movies.

I keep seeing that as a recommendation for me, so I'll have to check it out.

I just watched "Bad Day For the Cut," and thought it was pretty entertaining. It takes some twists and turns that might be predictable, but if you're like me and have seen a ton on Netflix and watch something that's just fun to watch, I'd check it out.

Also, someone already mentioned it, but they just added the first 3 Godfathers, Training Day, and some other solid flicks this month.

finally got around to watching it and it was a little interesting to learn the history behind fox news and some of the tricks they employ to influence their viewers. other than that, i dont think i learned anything that will help me with the fox news lovers in my life. they're happy being unhappy with what fox tells them and they're too stupid and stubborn to question it. fox knows that and they're exactly the types of people they aim to appeal to.

i did think it was really funny when they showed the study that said people who didnt watch or read news were right about more issues than people who watched fox. maybe ill bring that up at the next family dinner.

Just finished the first season of Colony, I think it's a USA network show. It has one dude from Lost and the wife that was in The Walking Dead. Anyway it's decent, if you feel like you don't know whats going on the beginning, I think thats what they were going for because it confused the fuck out of me. They explain it much later.

It's okay, don't think its a game changer but it will keep you entertained if you have nothing else to watch

I've been re-watching the Tarantino movies they have on Netflix (Jackie Brown, Hateful Eight, Inglorious Basterds) lately, but had to watch a torrent of True Romance.

The Founder is a pretty decent movie to watch, if you're hungover or just want to watch something light.
Good cast too: Michael Keaton, that guy who's probably the Zodiac Killer in Zodiac, and Nick Offerman.

Hopefully Garland will deliver because the trailer hinted at a generic action romp. Couldn't be further from the source material.

Ah, it says that the movie might be “too complicated” and “too intellectual” to connect with mainstream audiences in this article. Right...

It's not on Netflix, but im almost on season 10 of King of the Hill on some shitty website. I had seen it periodically growing up and always thought it was funny, but shit, after watching it in chronological order and understanding the character development of everyone, it is truly funny as shit.

For people outside the US, Annihilation comes out this week. I'm looking forward to it. There's an interesting backstory on how Paramount sold the international rights to Netflix behind the directors back too if you look for it.

Hopefully Garland will deliver because the trailer hinted at a generic action romp. Couldn't be further from the source material.

Ah, it says that the movie might be “too complicated” and “too intellectual” to connect with mainstream audiences in this article. Right...

Just caught in the theater tonight and really enjoyed it. I still would have liked it, but I'm very glad I had the chance to see it in theaters instead of on a TV.

It honestly felt like Garland was adapting someone else's story, which obviously he was, but it seemed...noticeable. It didn't feel as solid and intimately thought out as Ex Machina, but more so a relatable idea he had found in someone else's story and wanted to present what he had gleaned as it fit. I haven't read the novels yet so I can't say that's the case, it's just sort of the general feeling I got. I've read that he was pretty liberal with the source material, which isn't surprising. At least when Kubrick had his way with someone's story, it felt like it was his. 

The Netflix deal and middling box office numbers coupled with the fact that he's said he has zero plans to bring the other novels to the screen is a bummer, because it was gorgeous, solid all around (outside of some story elements feeling shoe horned), and I'd like to see more.

It did get me really interested in visiting the source material though, so at least I've got three more books to read.

The story has some holes in it, but overall it's not too bad.

i was getting into this one a few weeks ago but my wife decided she didn't like it and we dont watch it anymore. it was getting to the point in the first season where you really start to dislike both main characters, but I just wanted to see where it was going to go.

+1 on Bertie, she's got some good one liners too.   Couple of scenes in season 3 where Mickey actually looks fuckable

That sucks but I think it ran its course.....I like the characters and after you get to know them the magic is kinda lost....and it just gets more annoying.....if it went on...they would more or less repeat their shit....Apatow will produce something similar before you know it.

I'm more bummed Flaked is done....but that one had an ending too.

It's voyeuristic for me because I know people like them, but make an effort to stay at an arms length from them because....they are trouble.

I really like Paul Rust, Gillian Jacobs, and Claudia O'Doherty, but I didn't even make it all the way through the first season of Love. Gillian's been gorgeous since the start of Community though, not sure what Abyss is talking about.

Stuff I've enjoyed on Netflix this past week: Moon, The Road, Metropolis, Hot Fuzz (watched for like the dozenth time), Wind River (written and directed by the guy who wrote the screenplays for Sicario and Hell or High Water), and Tower.

Not on Netflix, but The Terror on AMC is my favorite show going right now.  Amazing acting and setting, really cool blending of a true story with fiction.  Somebody said it's "the Thing meets Master and Commander" and I'd say that's pretty spot on. 

I heard that show Babylon Berlin is really good.  Anybody check it out yet?

Watching the Handmaids Tale on Hulu with the lady... I really enjoyed the first season, but now the second season it's starting to bore me.  I mean how long can they drag this out for?  Eventually something has to change in the storyline.

Been watching The Wiggles with my kid (fuck you, he's only 1).  Is Emma cute?  I don't know.  Songs will drill itself into your brain that you hate it so much you start to like it. 

ER on Hulu... mindless stuff to watch when half asleep or staring at my phone.  Maura Tierney is a babe.

Well I've never read At The Mountains of Madness so I'm not 100% sure, but based on the wikipedia it does sounds like it was an influence on the book, The Terror. 

The book is based on a true story of an expedition to go through the northwest passage... apparently the boats (and crews) disappeared and it's been a mystery ever since.  The book came out and tells the true story and throws in a fiction element which sounds like Lovecraft.

The Netflix western miniseries Godless was good.

I enjoyed it quite a bit although it plays more like an 8 hr movie than a series: that is, the plot could probably be summarized in 3 sentences but you spend time with a lot of characters and it takes its time with a few side plots.

I suppose that's what a miniseries is although it just feels a bit less dense than a lot of what's out there now.

I generally liked the Netflix series Altered Carbon.


The tempo of the story changes from episode to episode and some are just most engrossing than others. The production values seesaw as well with some parts looking like a million dollars and others looking like an episode of Stargate SG1.
 
The violence was a bit much although it went in hand with the level of dystopia they were trying to convey.

The wrap up was a little corny.

The Motivation 3 is on Netflix, but it definitely does suck.

Building up Tampa Am like I care for 45 minutes just to see one dude not even go and the other dude that literally cried real tears on camera because someone stole his jacket bail every trick in the last 10. Also, I'm pretty sure they just used Google Translate on everybody.
This sounded so funny that I watched the whole thing, just to find out that his only jacket was stolen unrelated to the contest before he had anything and he had to go a whole winter without one. A bit sadder than expected.

Watching that one right now. Pretty good so far. HBO has a really good show called Sharp Objects right now that I'm really into. It's really dark and sad though.

I didn't know Hulu did the one episode a week shit we've evolved beyond as a species and I am outraged but damn do I love me a demon (or whatever) in prison. I don't care about fat tits or alzheimers mom even a little bit. Give me that demon.

A coworker told me to watch sharp objects but he watches CBS procedurals so I wrote him off but I'll check it out.

Just saw LA 92 randomly and I liked it. This one sums up just about everything from the riots including stories and footage I've never seen or heard of. I was only 4 when the riots happened and I coincidentally lived on Normandie and 55th which is just a couple blocks away from Normandie and Florence where everyone was pulling people out of their cars and beating them up. It definitely gave me dejavu considering everything that's currently going on right now.

I thought Godless was really good. Although I agree with some of the criticisms that it could've been condensed to a solid 2 and a half hour movie, I still think it's a good show.

I'm a big fan of westerns as well, so if you haven't seen some of my previous posts, Slow West is streaming on Netflix and I really enjoyed that and also Hostiles is great with Christian Bale. They put that on about 2 months ago. If you haven't seen those, check them out.

Cool I'll check it out.  Watched the preview on Netflix and seems like it could be something.

Yes I did see your previous post.... haven't watched Slow West yet but I did watch Hostiles and thought it was fantastic. 

Do you have amazon prime?  They have a bunch of great spaghetti Westerns you can watch instantly, like the OG Django (and a few good sequals), Death Rides a Horse (one of my faves) and Magnificent 7.

give it another chance. it was pretty slow but I thought it was great.. finished it a few nights ago.

that lawyer.. kathleen is an absolute bloodhound. her analysis and reconstruction of the entire case was pretty amazing to see

did anyone see the staircase yet? trying to decide if it's worth the commitment

i found the staircase to be entertaining if not absurd. i also recommend evil genius if your into this type of stuff.

just finished the Haunting of Hill House, I really liked it till the end.. that was a boner killer for me.
anyone copped the new Sabrina thing?

Hill House was killing it until that last episode. Such a letdown.

I'm almost done with Sabrina and have to say, it's waaaaaay gnarlier than I was expecting it to be.

The Staircase had more episodes than it needed, but overall definitely worth watching. The main guy is such a weird character.
Recent interview with the director: http://www.vulture.com/2018/06/the-staircase-jean-xavier-de-lestrade-interview.html

This documentary is good too, it was made by the guy who did The Jinx (the one with the awful sideburns).
www.youtube.com/watch?v=yehHZgLVj_k
I think I watched it on Prime before also.

Has devilman crybaby been mentioned?
Its fucking amazing
[close]

haha Ive not seen people recommend anime...but yea its dope in the beginning, the last half and end are very questionable and to me a shitty attempt to recreate the original anime ending.   

Not much Anime on Netflix worth a shout out...Knights of Sidonia was proper
[close]
are you serious?
I watched the old one too but i actually felt like the netflix devilman was way better
[close]
I just watched the berserk movies on netflix.
If anyone is confused the three movies on netflix cover the first manga arc. I prefer the 1997 anime but the netflix version aint bad. Berserk is highly influenced by devilman crybaby.If your into excessive violence check it out.
Warning there is some rather graphic rape stuff in there
[close]
The Berserk ARCs arent from netflix per se, they were out before as movies for a while and neflix picked it up 2-3 years ago.   

The rape scene was in the original anime as well, it totally unnecessary but the band of hawks was in Hell soooo


Did part 3 finally end up on Netflix? I had my doubts they would show that one. It's pretty fucked.

Just watched Hail, Ceasar! and it was better than I was expecting. Coen Bros movies are always great but sometimes they tend to meander a bit. This one was more focused and kept me interested the whole time.

Edit: Also want to watch Orson Welles' last film that was just added, is that a good one?

Haven't seen the "new" Orson Welles yet, but I've been meaning to watch that and the documentary on the movie too:

I loved the Tom Waits part, but my favorite is probably the dog/wagon train one.  The one with Liam Neeson was great, too.

Although I own several of these, there's some solid movies coming on January 1st. I'm especially stoked for all the Indiana Jones flicks to be available despite the most recent one being absolute trash.

Bird Box was pretty legit but I feel like the ending could have been better. Not that it was bad, it just sort of fell flat from the suspense.

I'm excited to watch Bandersnatch, probably tonight, but I enjoyed the first season of Black Mirror more than the latter.

I've been on a major anime binge lately and can say I love how much retro anime they have ...Netflix just released the new Baki series and its bad so ive been looking for the original anime series

I just saw Hold The Dark by the guy who made Blue Ruin and Green Room.

I guess it was well made and had some arresting sequences but there were major plot points I didn't get until reading an IMDb review from someone who had read the book. Not the greatest.

Even though I really liked Blue Ruin and Green Room, Hold the Dark just didn't entice me at all. Hard pass from the trailer/reviews.

Also, Bandersnatch was a let down.

I was gonna ask if anybody had watched Bandersnatch yet actually, but didn't cause Black Mirror gets a good amount of hate on here.

Just based off reviews and stuff I've read, it seems like they tried to do too much with the new special, and didn't really pull it all off. But I'm definitely gonna watch it at some point anyway though, I still like most episodes of the show.

**minor spoiler alert**
i thought the acting was actually fine for the most part. my biggest problem is that the plot was forced by some really stupid and unrealistic decisions by the characters. why doesn’t tom let malkovich out when they are being attacked by the crazy dude they let in? why do they need the grocery store clerk to come with them.. there was no security system.. just a locked door. why do they act so surprised when he tells them they can get food supplies at the grocery store(duh?). so much of the plot wasn’t logical. i understand cheesy b movie horror cliches... but this movie seemed like it was trying  to be so much more... total fail

tldr: acting was good but the script was terrible

i thought bandersnatch was pretty fun.. but wasn’t super stoked on the story i got. i’ll give it another go

More spoilers from Bird Box

Also, no one seemed to give a shit when their loved ones died. Sandra Bullock's sister walks in front of a speeding truck, then Sandra Bullock struggles over to the house and that's pretty much the last mention of her sister. John Malkovich's wife walks into a burning car until she explodes herself to death and he just gets grumpy that Sandra Bullock is in his house now. And during this six-year loving relationship they didn't call their children anything but "Boy" and "Girl" until those little shits earned real names six years later.

To be clear, I think the movie is worth watching, but there is a lot of glaringly stupid shit in it.

Bird Box started off unnecessarily dull and sluggish, the middle bit was entertaining enough, and then the ending fell flat. I didn't love it, didn't hate it, and I guess my main question is where did all the hype come from? It was just decent. I'll say I've seen it compared to "A Quiet Place" and I found it more engaging than it.

Black Mirror has gone downhill, IMHO. Not drastically so but it feels like a gradual slope. The first season was great, the second season had the concepts & feel but lots of drag, and Bandersnatch wasn't really all that "Black Mirror" to me aside from the cinematography. I went through a couple of endings on first watch but it felt more tedious and gimmicky than a movie I'd watch again. I'm not saying it was horrible it just didn't hold the same merit to me as the episodes.

On a separate note, I started watching Perfume which is really dark and great so far. It's a modern adaptation of the novel by German author Patrick Süskind. Dark is another really good German one on Netflix atm too.

There's no way in that final stretch, with his long career, would he not know how much of a clusterfuck the festival was going to be. It felt a little shady of him to not try to stop it, although everyone said how impossible it was to sway Billy on anything. Also, did Ja Rule have any legal repercussions after this?

Randomly watched that Fyre documentary on Netflix. I could hardly get through it actually. These people keep insisting this Billy guy is a marketing genius  ::) when it is blatantly obvious they were willfully ignorant, as they stood to make a lot of money (and some of them actually did, or at least are now owed a lot). Interestingly, I found out later that this Jerry Media company also helped produce this Netflix film. This is as good as they could make themselves look apparently, and they still look complicit as fuck.

And this Andy King character... in what world is a blowjob by him worth 150,000 dollars or whatever it was?? Doesn't add up at all, and seems to be in there to make him seem like he was used and/or trying his best(?) In any case it isn't plausible that these people didn't know what was happening, especially towards the end. Even the models knew all along they wouldn't attend that party. Some of the programmers seemed legitimately duped by this Billy creep but most just took the money and knowingly ran with his bullshit. Only that pilot called him out early on, because he wasn't blinded by $$.

Sorry for the rant but I cannot stand this 'visionary entrepreneur' crap. Should I watch the Hulu one? My girl wants to see it so might suffer through it with her.

Saw both. I liked the Netflix one more though. The Hulu one does have Billy being interviewed through the whole documentary and they discuss a few different things the Netflix didn’t discuss and vice versa. Billy is as dilusional as it gets. Even after the whole fiasco had the nerve to say I never lied about anything and still gives off the vibe that not only does he not have any remorse but tries to justify everything like he did nothing wrong. I do agree with you that a lot of people played the victim part when they were anything but. I do like that the restaurant lady that got screwed had a gofundme where she raised over 150k after the documentaries were released. The whole thing definitely gave me Enron vibes.

Good to hear the Bahamian workers are getting some cash after all. I read Billy got paid 250,000 to be in the Hulu one. Not sure if he is delusional as you say, or just a compulsive liar/sociopath. Might watch it later and split hairs on that. In any case I agree with you. I should definitely get a Ryan Lay board.

One of the things I thought was lacking from the Netflix one was there was no details on his family life or upbringing. Did his early life help pave the way to being a sociopathic shithead or was that on his own? Does the Hulu one discuss his family life at all?

He talks about hustling some kids in elementary school and a psychologist said it’s in him from the beginning.

Watched the Hulu one, it is the lesser film for sure but did add some new angles. Judging from the interview I would say Billy is just a con artist. Completely culpable. Funny to watch him squirm. His mom is also in this, voiced by a robot but sounding just as duplicitous as her spawn. Genetics, perhaps, or maybe just a mom doing damage control. Apparently scuba diving at ten years old is precocious and somehow explains turning into a compulsive liar later on. That story about his crayon enterprise sounded so made up as well. As for gold diggers, how about that Carola woman! Billy's chick should take notes. She can afford to sink her husband's millions into train wrecks like this and never have to worry about it. Must be nice.

I liked how the Hulu film calls them on their bullshit more, but the edit is very ADD and messy. Ja Rule drunkenly implicates himself at the end, so it sort of pays to sit it out. Ryan Lay boards are hard to come by where I am, it turns out. For shame, as it would compensate nicely for the clusterfuck of inauthenticity I consumed over the last 24 hours.

I can be petty when it comes to grammar. With that on the table, Billy's pointless "Basically" in his message for his crayon refurb hustle drove me fucking nuts. That little misplaced word was the tell that he thought he was more clever than he actually was. I'm not out here advocating stepping on kids dreams but no story they told about his childhood made me think he was going to grow up to be a moral, well-adjusted adult.

That irked me as well, haha. In the edit, 'basically' was included in the screen message, but I think it was an interjection he made in speech, it wasn't part of the actual 'pitch' ::) Because of course kids don't need their crayons fixed and he knows it is reaching. Even retrospectively he fails to make up a viable Warren Buffett type lemonade stand story.

I thought the creative director/right hand scam man Grant Margolis was both the biggest idiot and one of the biggest frauds. All the footage of him was gold (boats in a "v-formation", "big big big big big bonfire" and his music commercial suggestions) and I was disappointed that there wasn't more.

I do my best to not live and die by Rotten Tomatoe reviews, but when it's lower then 20%, it's usually shit. I saw that advertised on Netflix and the story sounded interesting, but after seeing the reviews, I passed. Sorry you had to sit through it.

Yeah I noticed that too. They are building up the hype for movie it seems that just released its trailer a few days ago.

I'm watching the Versace American crime story at the moment, I quite like it but it is pretty off-putting that all the actors have a Spanish accent when they're meant to be Italian. Penelope Cruz even speaks with that lisp, which I guess is hard to get over, but then that kind of is what actors should be doing, right?

You can read two of the short stories that were adapted for Buster Scruggs online, I don't think I realized one was written by Jack London.

Bumping because the documentary ‘Raiders! The Story of the Greatest Fan Film Ever Made’ is insane and inspiring honestly. It’s about these kids who made a shot for shot remake of Raiders of the Lost Ark over 7 years in the 80’s and got a kickstarter for the plane scene in 2014.

No worries. Yah, Dawn Wall did a really great job showing all the intricacies and nuances of climbing. After watching both, I gained a lot of respect for Tommy Caldwell for all the support he lent Alex and not finishing Dawn Wall with out Kevin. Stand up dude.

I'm probably going to watch The Dawn Wall tonight, but one thing I'd say about Free Solo was that I think I was more intrigued with it as a character study on Alex as a human than feeling inspired after watching. It was obviously such a mind blowing accomplishment, but I enjoyed the parts most where you see things like how his family never said the words "I love you" and how certain experiences helped shape him into this unrelenting climber.

I'm excited to see how Dawn Wall is different.

Post by: weon on March 25, 2019, 03:24:35 AM
Just had spring break, so I skipped going to the lab a bunch and watched Netflix instead.

Chiming on some recently mentioned:

Love Death + Robots, was really enjoyable. The fact that they’re shorts really gets your imagination going on the sci-fi/fantasy aspect; As cupcake boi said, I’m Sorry has got that curb “going thru daily life as a comedian” vibe. Love that show; Russian Doll is watchable, I think the main actress makes it funny most of the time; Losers is good. Failures are rarely recorded as the main theme, aftermaths are surprising/weird depending on the episode; Ballad of Buster Scruggs was super enjoyable. Again, short story format works wonders for building tension, releasing it, and bringing you back in, while leaving you some food for your imagination.

Things I watched recently:

I’m not from the US, but these CNN docs on different decades—particularly the '90s and '00s—are really eye opening to get a broad idea of the origins of contemporary popular culture.

I’ve also enjoyed Umbrella Academy, chill superhero comic adaptation with different vibe that Marvel+Netflix stuff; Sabrina was mostly cool, her character varies through the show tho; Altered Carbon was sick; yes I did like the new Arrested Development episodes—in too deep to not watch em (even if all the characters suck); Ozark drew me in a lot, complex characters in there; Luther bc Idris Elba is the fucking man.

If you like anime:

One Punch Man is my favorite available there (new season out April 2019! probs not straight to Netflix tho); both versions of Full Metal Alchemist are worth a watch imo; Attack on Titan is gruesome but filled with emotion, can get heavy; Sword Art Online I/II & Gun Gale Online were cool, especially if you’re into RPGs; now I’m watching Gargantia on the Verdurous Planet, it’s aight, interesting postapocalyptic premise.

Spring break ended—time to get back to work...

Not on Netflix but have you watched Mob Psycho 100? Same creator as One Punch Man, season 2 finale just came out. I don't even usually watch anime or even have time for TV shows and shit, but I was stuck at home with a bad knee last week or so, I randomly checked it out and it sucked me right in, I binge watched both seasons in two days (not realizing the last episode was yet to come out then - some frustration ensued). Maybe it's a bit more profound than One Punch Man, but it's very similar, the animation is impressive and it's so imaginative you can almost taste the acid in some parts.

I grew up on anime fansubbed bootlegs of dragonballZ in the mid 90s, I remember in 11th grade we conned our teacher in letting us put in Ninja Scroll since none of us had seen it...when we got to the near rape scene  ...boy ill tell you our teacher overreacted threw the tape out...lol

But anyways Netflix has decent anime, it's not my go to which is currently Hulu -has more R rated titles

There aren't many good titles in anime unless you really like the shit, I didn't like one punch after first 2 episodes, but love My Hero Acadamia (almost same premise)

I just watched Unicorn Store. Starring and directed by Brie Larson and featuring Samuel L. Jackson, at under an hour length, it's short and very very sweet. Essentially it's about a depressed young woman who wallows in loneliness and her sense of failure who happens to have overly emotionally intrusive parents. When she finally gets off her ass and decides to better herself, she finds a whimsical store that offers the sense of companionship and acceptance that she's longed for her entire life. At the same time she may have accidentally found herself falling into that sense of belonging she's craved through the very attempt of acquiring what the store advertises. If you got nothing better to do and an hour to waste on something cute, this may be the thing for you.

Anyone see that new “black summer” zombie show? I’m as burned out on zombies as anyone who likes sifi/post apocalyptic/survival horror, but I thought it was really good.  I will warn you thats not the general consensus.

Yeah I didn't mind this, you could tell it was filmed with a really low budget (so many scenes of them walking through doors left me wondering why are they not closing them to shut zombies out but realized they left it open for the camera man to walk through after them haha). Overall though I did enjoy it and burnt through it pretty quick.

Ha I didn’t even notice that.  Some of the plot lines were dumb, but for whatever reason I was able to overlook that, maybe cause the pacing was fast.  I really appreciated the lack of dialogue in it. And the choice to not translate what the person not speaking English was saying.

Have seen this as a recommendation for me for a long time and finally saw it last night. Sam Rockwell's acting was the best part in my opinion, but it's a fun watch:

Also, this just got added and while I don't think it's a great movie, it was entertaining with some fun twists:

My friend recommended it with a strong warning about what lies ahead. I thought the very first sketch, with the interview and him opening the door on the way out, was great, but definitely got too weird for me after that. There's some funny ones sprinkled in there, but definitely an odd experience.

It has 1 or 2 good parts per episode which I think is fair for a low budget 15 minute sketch show starring someone I'd never heard of. The very specific lawyer commercial and baby of the year were worth the 27 minutes.

If you like tales of dramatized drug dealing, stabbings, acid splashings, and tales of strife: look no further than TOP BOY.

The characters are super believable, the plot features character depth reminiscent of The Wire or Sopranos.
The parts of England depicted look so soggy and depressing. I binged the whole season over the weekend.

I was willfully ignorant of the earlier versions of this series and for that I am a fuckin fool.
From what I get, this story is a continuation of earlier stories from the first 2 seasons, each with 4 episodes per season.

This series was revamped and is ten 1 hour episodes.
I've never heard of another series to make a comeback in this fashion.

 Although I didn't like the agenda they were going with Ian's gay Jesus bs.

Didn’t cry but I was really bummed. I don’t think he will be dead though. I was supposed to be Hoop and my girl whatever the fuck the moms name is for Halloween. I shaved my mustache though two weeks ago before I remembered I needed it for Halloween. Hopefully I can get it close to that length by Halloween again but probably not.

I told the dumbass barber take a half in on the sides and he took it down to half an inch total. My hair had been growing for like 3 fucking months. It looked bad with my stache. It’s ok though because the top need to get longer before I let the sides grow but it fucked Halloween up some.

He can’t die. The first season I hardly paid attention to the last episodes. Season 2 I haven’t seen all of. 3 was the shit because of Hoop and the kids were older so Netflix wasn’t such pussies about them getting hurt in the storylines.

The Dolemite movie was great. I really wanted to find something to hate about it, but it was pretty much perfect.

Been watching Jack Whitehall's "Travels With My Father" after catching him on Graham Norton; it is consistently hilarious.

Absolutely. Season 2 blows 1 out of the water. It blew my fuckin mind. Jason Bateman is amazing, in my opinion. Think he directed most of Ozark.

absolutely agree about season 2 blowing season 1 out of the water. They setup a third season perfectly, which I can't wait for.

If you need a feel good, funny, guilty pleasure show I would suggest Schitts Creek. Especially the newer seasons. I'm huge fans Catherine O'Hara and Eugene Levy, and they nail it. Especially Moira, Catherine O'Hara's character. I'm not usually into shows like this, but theres something about it I really enjoy especially when I'm feeling DITD down in the dumps

The End Of The F***ing World season 2.  Season 1 was really good but this one was exceptional, nonstop rollercoaster start to finish.  Can’t imagine there will be another but I don’t even mind based on how it ended.

Ate an edible last weekend and watched Lala Land.  Musicals and romance movies are typically not my jam at all, but the cinematography kept me hooked for the whole 2+hrs.

I stumbled upon the dutch comedy series "Toon" by accident. I absolutely loved it. It is kind of difficut to describe what it is like. It is a mixture of "Louie" and "Curb your Enthusiasm". Less existential than "Louie" and less heady and more emotional than "Curb you Enthusiasm".

No intermission and it was a fully packed theatre, sort of regret getting a large Dr. Pepper to start and sitting right in the middle but wasn't going to leave. Pesci and DeNiro are amazing. Pesci and Stephen Graham's performances really stood out.

In brighter news Mid-90s has just landed on Netflix over here so gonna give that a shot soon.

I really liked the Irishman after the first 2 hours but the last hour just cemented this film as another classic Scorsese, De Niro, Pesci classic. Goodfellas and Raging Bull are my favorites but The Irishman is up there with Casino. I found myself hoping they would change history like Tarintino and have Frank save Hoffa and fucking kill everyone else but of course it was perfect the way it was. I’m stoked to watch it again. A Marriage Story comes out tomorrow and it’s getting really good reviews. Noah Baumbach movie with Adam Driver and Scarlet Johansson.

My buddy turned it on after we returned from skating around 11pm, I was going to try to walk over to my room and sleep but after he turned it on I ended up watching the whole movie standing up because I didn't want to move and potentially miss something. It's a fun one without much pop-out scare shit but you'll still be able to yell out condescending shit to the characters. It's also Korean so it has humorous elements like The Host and stuff like that

I like the Korean movies that have been popping up on streaming services. The Wailing, Bluebeard, Oldboy (The Handmaiden on Amazon Prime by the same director), Vanishing Time.. the list goes on. There's a ton of great movies, it's a reprieve from seeing the same actors over and over again in mainstream American cinema.

The difficult moments are the scenes of actual footage the sociopath had posted online...it does cut away right before the actual acts of violence are committed but it's obvious where its going & while you won't be watching actual snuff it's certainly stomach churning.  The manhunt aspect of the documentary is very well done though, so it's a weird show to recommend without a disclaimer.

Binged The Witcher in like two and a half days, now rewatching it with m'lady. Hadn’t heard of the books or games until Witcher III came out—been a huge fan since. Show might throw you for a loop if you don’t have any context, but (to me) that just ups the rewatch value—you’ll get a lot more out of it the second time around. If you’re an action movie/show fan, the fight scenes are insanely well choreographed.

Netflix has been blowing it on adding good movies every month, but January 2020 has some good ones. I used to love Tremors as a kid and just watched it last night. Here's the list of what's released this month:

Don't Fuck With Cats was really interesting but completely fucked documentary.  Very tough to watch some of the  footage & not easily forgotten.  Not for the squeamish, I suggest watching the trailer beforehand & it'll clue you in as to what it's all about.
Couldn’t make it 5 minutes into it listening to that lady. I shuddered at the dumb shit she said.

It's pretty good so far, I'm almost at the end of season 2. I can see why it was talked about for so many years. I'm always late to start watching shows, like I just watched Dexter for the first time this year too lol.

The best part is it keeps getting better. Season 3 and 4 were my favorites.

Shoulda got better quicker because the early seasons were kinda cheesy and lost my interest. I wouldn’t say a gave it a fair shot though I was high af on painkillers recovery from ACL surgery the whole time I was watching. Maybe I should finish it.

Has The Two Popes been mentioned yet? Thought it was excellent. The acting, dialogue and imagery are really great. I doubt the real events were this civil (Ratzinger and Bergoglio weren't very amicable I believe), and overall it definitely seems like the best kind of PR the church could hope for at this point. So that could be a turn-off, but otherwise I'd recommend it. A new season of The Young Pope is also about to come out, by the way.

You guys had never heard of Luke Magnotta before? There are definitely better documentaries on the story if we're talking about presenting facts vs trying to create entertainment. The documentary is called "Don't Fuck with Cats" so straight from the beginning it's a clickbait title.

The thing that bothered me about that documentary was how it was so contradictory. The editing and all the facebook sounds were shit. And, fuck, that one shot where they show dude's mom in the background with an obviously doctored facebook page up on a computer in the foreground? It's bringing this guy back into the limelight for entertainment purposes and glorifying facebook vigilantes. At the end, when "Baidi Moovin" looks into the camera with that close statement... come on.

I suppose I was being a bit harsh, if I saw it only as a standalone I would've said it was decent.... it's just that the first two reminded me of the old Hammer Dracula films, gothic & claustrophobic & I really enjoyed them, the third episode was such a departure I was disappointed.

The overall plot cheezy if you try to explain to somebody nevertheless really enjoyed. Binge watched pretty fast.  Without spoiler, can't believe that character died. Super bummed, be interesting to see what next season brings. 

Just finished new season of Better Call Saul. Fantastic. Connects to Breaking Bad more than ever. 

On Amazon, really enjoyed Goliath. Great alcoholic lawyer show with bizarre stories & twists.

haha oh yeah and I admittedly am a sucker for cheezy at times and this is right up my alley. It's kinda like a mix of Sons of Anarchy and the movie Lords of Dogtown. I know ! I think the next the season will be super different without that character, might be the final one. I'm glad you commented on this because you've reminded me about Better Call Saul, been waiting for this season for a while now.

But I have received two royalty checks since the release, so I would like to tell everyone to go check out "The Last Summer," a witty, coming-of-age tale of 4 friends graduating high school and taking the summer to figure out what to do with their lives. Zion Wright is the stunt double for one of the main characters, a stoner/slacker with aspirations of making the leap to professional skateboarding.

What I found interesting was his dad was extremely similar to my friend's, growing up. Almost to a T with the motorcycle and being a total scumbag who mooched off of his kid's success because he could not get a real job due to his rap sheet.

I loved Breaking Bad but never got around to watching Better Call Saul until I saw these comments. Just finished episode 1 of season 4 and I'm so excited for what's to come. I don't know why I never started this earlier, but I'm kind of glad I waited so I could binge-watch the way I have been.

This doc is wild if you have Showtime.


Remember hearing sporadic bizarre headlines about him over the last decade. Need to watch. Amazing to see one of the tech yuppies go rogue. 

Also, yeah The Magicians looks good too. Everything shut down, ideal time to watch 

And Doyle, Season 5 of Better Call Saul looks even more wild. Seen previews. New episodes happening now, but gonna wait  till comes out on Netflix to watch.

Just finished the Daybreak series at first I wasn’t sure because of how corny it came off . I cringed especially when he mall grabs his board but it was decent, Madmax/John Hughes type of storyline.  If you can roll your eyes at how woke the feel for this movies subagenda it’s a decent watch.

Haven't seen in years too, gotta watch soon. Really enjoy Paul Thomas Anderson films. Speaking of, watched The Master on Netflix tonight. Interesting film. Not sure if my fondness for Philip Seymour Hoffman & Joaquin Phoenix cloud my judgement of the film.

Don't Fuck With Cats was really interesting but completely fucked documentary.  Very tough to watch some of the  footage & not easily forgotten.  Not for the squeamish, I suggest watching the trailer beforehand & it'll clue you in as to what it's all about.
[close]

I keep hearing or seeing discussion about this documentary..it's left me intrigued but I don't know how squeamish I am
[close]
The difficult moments are the scenes of actual footage the sociopath had posted online...it does cut away right before the actual acts of violence are committed but it's obvious where its going & while you won't be watching actual snuff it's certainly stomach churning.  The manhunt aspect of the documentary is very well done though, so it's a weird show to recommend without a disclaimer.

Finally got round to watching this and I know what you mean, super messed up and the dude seemed like such a weiner when he was in the interrogation room all cold asking for a cigarette. Some sick people out there, also lol at the facebook warriors

You guys are tripping me out that you choose the English dubs over reading subtitles. Maybe I'm in the minority, but I can never watch dubbed movies. It just drives me insane to not watch the words match up to them talking. Are there any subtitled films that do a really good job with dubs?

Top 5 for me... the score alone is incredible. I’ll admit for years, up until recently, i always thought Paul and Eli were the same person maybe he had multiple personalities (it sounds dumb in hindsight). Paul Dano was supposed to just play Paul, but the actor playing Eli dropped out saying Daniel Day was too intense or something.. so Dano played both and they wrote in they were identical twins.

absolutely--i just watched it again yesterday and was going to mention it in this thread. there's some ham-handed and corny shit with how gangs are represented (which is probably inevitable whenever Hollywood tries to deal with that subject matter), but how that movie treats family and fatherhood is just fucking jarring...

...that scene at the hotel when "Money" tells his son to forget him, slams the door, and then the camera focuses in on him trying not to break down, had me tearing up...

It's pretty wild but then at the end nothing really felt like it came together, closure wise. Like what point exactly was the director trying to make? In the end I felt like I just watched a whirlwind of "big cat" people fucking each other over. Entertaining enough if you're into that sort of thing - sort of like crazy reality tv.

On that note, started watching the Gringo John Mcafee documentary. Pretty interesting so far.

Freaks was really good. Starts slow but eventually gets hectic. Definitely a good sci-fi flick.

Pandemic is a really good series - think I mentioned that one on this thread already.

Watched Contagion the other day, doesn't look like it's on netflix anymore though. It's not too outlandish and actually feels pretty informative. Really good suspense movie about a pandemic.

Vice Principals - on hulu -  is good but typical Danny Mcbride playing Danny Mcbride. Definitely didn't see what was coming in the final episode.

Not sure if all of these are on Netflix but thinking of watching Pandorum, Platform, Guns Akimbo, Takashi Miike's first love, Knives out, Swiss army man, Booksmart, standoff on sparrow creek.

going to agree with the Ozark praise--i'm on episode 3, and this season is firing on all 8 cylinders.

Ruth is one of my favorite characters of all time, and i like her more with every episode, which doesn't happen often...as far as female characters go, i'm not going to say she's as much of a badass as Frances McDormand in Fargo, but the potential is there.

also, sat through all of the episodes of Tiger King--a couple of random thoughts:

Watched The Score last night. A fun heist film with a heavy hitter  cast. Edward Norton, De Niro, and a fatt Marlon Brando. Turns out that was Brando's last film.

Killing Them Softly was dope. Brad Pitt makes everything better. Cool to see James Gandolfini. Miss that guy.
 
Crash was heavy & good. 

Extremely bored the other day so watched Get Him To The Greek. Surprisingly really enjoyed, laughed a lot.   

Running out of things to watch so started Community. Not groundbreaking or anything however I enjoy , passes the time.

Watching Watchmen, almost done but I think the way the story has developed is pretty good

On Hulu (HBO?): I’ve watched 2 episodes of McMillions and am not feeling it. I think the writing was pretty bad and, subjectively, I don’t think the story was all that interesting. Maybe it gets better, I’ll find out tomorrow.

I started this as well. Was interested in it in the beginning but the story really drags on. Found myself fast forwarding some parts and only made it to episode 4. This could have been a really well 90 minute documentary but instead they stretched it into a 6 hour long episodes.

Agreed.

I just watched Road To Perdition for the first time. This is, at a minimum, the 3rd time I’ve equally loved Jude Law as much as I hated him.

Sam Mendes nailed the photography for this movie.

yeah, it's definitely worth the watch, although i mean what i said above--there's lots of collective armed, right-wing instability in Michigan right now, and the fact that this Waco series starts off with that fucked Ruby Ridge chaos, is funnily-timed binge-watching material for the special kind of white people Michigan produces.

also agree with whitemanjazz that Michael Shannon does not do much wrong--not sure if any of y'all saw this, but it's on Netflix right now, and although it's a comparatively minimal role, Michael Shannon is cool in this:

That last episode had me reconsidering my entire relationship with my mother; we've never had a good relationship bc neither of us have had a real understanding of one another and how our emotions work.
Started watching it again last night to take it in episode by episode instead of binge watching it like last time.

me too, but here i am about a week and a half after i watched it and i feel like i need to watch it again to find all he subtle hidden stuff i missed first tme round. (theres videos on youtube about this that piqued my interest)

youre right about the absurdity, its mental, but so is the directors first movie heriditary which tbh i hated, theres such a good build of tension and dread throught the first 2/3s then in the last act its like he gave up and went 'fuck it lets get stupid'

at least Midsommar felt like one movie from the title card to the credits

i think both Hereditary and Midsommer were great.  The best contemporary horror films in quite a while.  I went into both after losing close family members, and they each film handled the topic of grief (in very different ways) really hit me.  Ari Aster has got a great future in film and I can't wait to see what he does next.

i genuinely don't know if i loved this, or if i hated it, so nicely done on the director's part...i know i need to watch it again. what i will say is, although nobody seems to have said anything about this in anything i've read about it, the cinematographer clearly loves The Shining--motion, framing of human bodies and faces, slow/long tracking shots, etc...

So far I saw 3 movies Netflix recommended heavily, bird box, the platform and the one where Adam Sandler solves a mystery. Don't wanna throw Steve carrell into that bag of shit, if space force is watchable I'm good.

Saw 1932 Freaks and this one the weekend

I posted it already but realized I didn't say shit about it. Trial By Media. I think is really good. Its about the way media covers events for personal gain and how that in turns controls public perception. The first episode is about the murder of Scott Amadure. Scott Amadure was a gay man who revealed a secret crush on a straight friend on Jenny Jones (a Jerry Springs type show), the straight friend kills him a few days later. Everyone ends up losing in the end except for the people who do the show. I don't want to ruin all the details because it's good to hear it discussed by both sides. Really compelling.

Tupac’s best movie ever. Truly felt terrified of him every time he’s on screen with that tek9 gold chain

That movie confirmed a lot for me when it came out I was a kid so when I got older I was all about dj battles, street fighter arcade games, and dressing in clothes

It's so weird watching this because the initial feeling is James Franco is overacting, but when you see how the character he's playing really acts, you realize it's spot on. And the real story of the guy is fascinating on so many levels. Make sure to watch the scene comparisons after the credits from the actual "The Room" movie and this movie.

Top 5 for me for sure. I didn't even know it was a trilogy until I got older. Still remember the first time my dad showed me it in high school. I found out it was a trilogy nearly a decade ago but didn't think the others would even compare so I didn't watch them until like 2 years ago and boy was a wrong. They aren't AS good but they are damn fine! Always have it on when I come across it, watched it this week to get excited for camping and being outdoors.

I love watching that and The Unforgiven. Two of the best endings ever in Western's IMO, especially when Ecstasy of Gold starts playing for the showdown...

I watched Da 5 Bloods today and really wanted to love it, but I just wasn't sure what it was trying to accomplish. Redemption, closure, re-connecting with loved ones, etc. I suppose but it felt a bit off. Can't put my finger on it, but it was still a super quality film and Lindo and Chadwick crushed it.

oi!

the first Mad Max is on Netflix right now...but The Road Warrior is not...which sucks, because it is meant to be watched immediately following the first.

i've always wanted to teach a course tussling with cinematic representations of anarchy, and these two originals together are one of the most realistic in my humble opinion--how beleaguered and pathetic the police are in the first one and the whole premise that when the gas stops flowing things will officially collapse is compelling...."the last of the V8 Interceptors"

The Town is back on. It's my favorite Jeremy Renner role by far. He works best more as a bad guy/scummy dude than the Marvel role he plays. Also, I'm just a sucker for Boston and bank robbery movies.

The first 3 Jurassic Parks are up and Nightcrawler will be back on the 10th of this month. Also I remember really liking Safety Not Guaranteed, which will be back on the 13th.

Yo watch blue ruin.

It's a little slow but it's worth it.

Blue Ruin is sick.  I think I've watched it 3 times. It's from the director of The Green Room, the first couple episodes of the last True Detective Season, and Hold the Dark, which I was less of a fan of, though I'll probably give it another shot.

The second season of The Umbrella Academy went up a few days ago, I'm about half way through and it's just as good as the first season which I really enjoyed.

Steve Blackman did a really good job adapting the comic book to a Netflix show.

Do you know of any other bank robbery or heist type movies that aren't heat or den of thieves? For some unknown reason my favorite movies sit in this genre but are hard to come by. I've even watched the north hollywood shootout documentary & movie multiple times and thoroughly enjoyed both.

Inside Man is currently streaming on Netflix. That's a fun one. Also, they just took it down unfortunately, but Hell Or High Water is one of my favorite movies within the last 5 years or so. If you can find a way to watch it, I'd highly recommend it. Drive isn't bank robberies, but it's a great movie.

Yeah I've seen all of those. Hell or High Water is so damn good. Killing them softly isnt much of a bank robbery film either but has a good plot and writing about these guys who rob an underground casino then get a hit put out on them.

Hell or High Water is outstanding and a lot more than just a bank-robbery movie--especially as regards issues of class...almost makes me think of films like John Ford's version of Grapes of Wrath or the first Bonnie and Clyde...like this scene here:

i did not know he wrote for tv...will have to check that out, thanks.

since y'all were talking about the bank-robbery genre and i mentioned the original Bonnie and Clyde above (from 1967 with Warren Beatty and Faye Dunaway), The Highway Men is on Netflix right now and actually pretty fucking good as well--even if it is trying to make Texas Ranger Frank Hamer (Kevin Costner) look like he was some kind of civilized human being (all joking aside, i think it does an interesting job of balancing out how he is represented in the original film). Woody Harrelson is on point as Ranger Maney Gault too. here's the trailer, which is of course all ham-handed and cheesy and shit (there is no music like that in the actual film thank god) so don't let it deter you from the film, which is good:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aH6vC-BBKOc

i could discuss all day how/why a film is taking Hamer and the ranger's side in our current day and age in this country--it really does seem to be countering the original film, by clearly representing Bonnie and Clyde as the more monstrous of the sides and Hamer as a kind of misunderstood hero. it removed any suggestion that they were practicing a kind of class warfare against the banks and the state that protects the banks' money, and just makes Bonnie and Clyde seem like nihilistic and/or gratuitous murderers out on a drunken killing spree...

Definitely agree. Hell or High Water is one of those movies I watch about once every 6 months and always get something new out of it. I do the same with No Country For Old Men. I'll never get old of them.

I was in 3rd grade I think.  Our class didn't see the explosion somehow, and on the bus home my whole class thought everyone was playing a joke on us saying it exploded. Got home and realized it was indeed true.

I'm a couple years late but Mindhunter is perfect for October. I tried to watch it a couple years ago, but that was when my gf and I first started dating and it got Netflix and Chill'd. It's about the FBI agents that started to study serial killers before they came up with the term serial killer, and the profiling and stuff they do to try and figure out how someone like that thinks and acts. So on the show you see them interviewing all these famous serial killers like Son of Sam, Ed Kemper etc. I gave it another show a couple weeks ago and finished it in like a week.

Its a really good show and no just because they have all these famous killers. Its actually extremely well rounded. Cinematography would have some appreciation for the editing, camera work and perfect soundtrack. Some of my favorites songs are scattered throughout the show.

agree, i got sucked right into it and watched it right though the first time--i actually just put it back on my list to rewatch. it's been a minute, but i feel like i remember all of the scenes focused on Edmund Kempe being pretty fucking tense. i knew this scene would be on Youtube:

Post by: 50mm on October 06, 2020, 08:53:12 AM
That’s the end of season 1 and season 2 has another dope ending. They are on a hiatus right now because the guy is directing a movie and they didn’t want to hold everyone to contract if they didn’t have a shooting schedule. In The Light is my favorite Led Zeppelin song so when it came on I was stoked. So many good tracks. But that is a great great sequence I’ve watched a couple times. Season 2 has a great sequence set to M.E. when they are doing stakeouts. 

I forgot to mention how accurate it is as well. A lot of the dialogue is verbatim from the actual jail house interviews with killers. Even just how they talk about certain crimes shut down a lot of legend that has grown about them in real life.

David Fincher basically said there isn’t going to be another season of Mindhunter, despite all the foreshadowing in the first two.  Apparently it was too expensive to make and wasn’t getting enough views?  Seems like odd reasoning for a show that’s mostly filmed in dark rooms and that the entire internet raves about.

I've only seen this clip on it:

@childhood yeah, I had a little back-and-forth with a few people in the show in another thread. It's kind of like a gentler Nathan For You (which makes sense, as Nathan is an executive producer). Check out www.johnsmovies.com, he has a bunch of webisodes up and you can kind of get a feel for the show from there.

any watched the Haunting of Bly Manor yet?

i really liked hill House so was looking forward to this, it started real strong but the ending was a bit meh
[close]

Hill House is haunting me.

Grand Army is a pretty gnarly look at high school (basically a less trippy/stylized Euphoria) and makes me glad I graduated 15 years ago, pre-iphone/most modern social media.
I watched Grand Army last weekend. I graduated only 5 years ago ago and found this show so damn relatable it’s insane. I remember the public high school across from my grade school would have a fake bomb threat like every week. Also fuck that “No-tolerance policy”

David Fincher basically said there isn’t going to be another season of Mindhunter, despite all the foreshadowing in the first two.  Apparently it was too expensive to make and wasn’t getting enough views?  Seems like odd reasoning for a show that’s mostly filmed in dark rooms and that the entire internet raves about.

It’s more that he’s too busy to give his input and direct and eps so he ended it.  Fincher uses a fuckton of cgi you wouldn’t think about and basically blew up two Go shows for HBO over budget issues.  Quality isn’t cheap. 

If you’re ever in Hollywood/Los Feliz he’s got a pretty notable office building off Hollywood and Gramercy.  You’d recognize it from the beginning of LA Confidential

Altered carbon the animated one is Ill.

The film black 47? It's like Rambo in the potato famine era.

The Nightingale. It's like mad max the british prison colony era.

Decent brutal film. Kinda right winger tho.

The way I understand it is that Netflix’s percentage decreases every season. Unless they are certain that a particular show is drawing eyeballs to the service, it doesn’t really matter if the show is successful because the economics stop favoring Netflix.

Unfortunately this has left a whole lot of incomplete series. It would be better if creators started operating under the assumption they will be writing a limited series.

That’s definitely a thing they do, but three seasons is usually where they cut it off unless the cost is exorbitant like in Altered Carbon and that Baz Luhrman show about the birth of hip hop.   Fincher has an unrivaled leash in Hollywood and pretty much calls his own shots to the point where he can call the shots on his posters, etc.   he’s got a deal with Netflix (Mank written by his dad that he directed, premiered Friday) and Netflix keeps their creators happy and will let him do what he wants to do especially if he wants to keep doing it with them.   Keep in mind, HBO didn’t go forward with Utopia or Video Synchronicity bc of budget issues so I’m sure Fincher likes being at a place that gives him a blank check.   Netflix wants legitimacy in its film department and he’s part of the respectability

Also, it’s on Starz, but I recommend checking out Go.  Not great, but a pretty fun 90s movie

I feel like I talk about Ti West on here more than skateboarding, but I just watched In A Valley Of Violence.  Really well done western, and the dog actor (dogtor?) gave a better performance than most stars in MCU movies.

I can't vouch for the trailer, but the whole movie is awesome and i just wanted to give some context.

This really got me.  I'm primarily a working musician (or was, before COVID), leaps and bounds better at music than skating.  My biggest fear has always been losing my hearing or fucking up my hands.  The ending was touching and haunting at the same time.

I watched the Lie on Amazon Prime last night.  I'd give it like a 6/10, but with some of the filler trash you see, I've come to tolerate mediocre movies more than ever.

got sucked in to Derry Girls and was bummed that the two seasons went by so quick--i think i miss about half of what they say, so i watch it with subtitles.

i'm not comparing the times and places, but still, it feels like the stories of a group of teenage girls just trying to be teenage girls during the "Troubles" in Northern Ireland might have some value to young folks in the good Ol' US of A currently.

i dig all of the characters, but the head nun (Sister Michael) at their school is fucking hilarious at times

If you liked chewing gum, please check out Michaela Coel’s newer show “I May Destroy You”.  It’s a heavy subject matter but one of the better shows from last year. 

For 30 Rock fans:  Mr Mayor (by Tina Fey/Robert Carlock) just started and the Saved by the Bell revival is written/staffed with 30 Rock writers.  I cared nothing for the original, but im a few eps in to the new one and I’m super on board with it.

hey Atiba, i watched that Bake Off episode and loved it, thanks...definitely all feel good (i'll take it where i can get it these days) and "charming" is a perfect way to put it. i came across this weirdness when i was first looking for a way to watch it:

There are parts that work for me but the big flaw is the son character.   A lot of dramas try and do the vehicular manslaughter storyline in the 2nd or 3rd season (ray donovan, homeland) because they’ve run out of things for the protagonists’ kids to do, as if anyone gives a shit about them.   So if you can stomach that and the obnoxious self-sabotage that comes from the act.  The other part of the story is interesting in a pulpy way.  The justification for why he helps his son cover it up sold me initially.  I’m at ep 6 now and still between whether I like and and whether I’m seeing it through because it’s a mini-series.

999 is pretty good.

If you mixed the breaking bad kid with Casey Affleck you may end up with a GG Allin clone

Just watched Den of Thieves tonight and thought it was entertaining. Anyone else notice how the one dude who was one of the bad guys had a Thrasher shirt on, then an Independent shirt, then a McGills Skateshop shirt, and then a Skeleton Key hat? Quite a lot of skate references from one actor in a movie.

HBO Max just put up the 3rd season of Gomorrah and it was just as amazing as the previous two.  Not sure if anybody else on here watches it, but in my opinion makes the Sopranos looks like a 7th Heaven.  Apparently the fourth season is already over with, but it takes forever to be made available in the US.

I haven't seen the show, but I love the movie that's based on the same book.

I did just start watching ZeroZeroZero though, which is based on another book by the same author.

Finished Your Honor last night.  Sure, it’s no Breaking Bad, some parts were a bit far fetched and some things could’ve been delved into further.  But I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t on the edge of my seat throughout the entire series, and satisfied with how it wrapped up.

People made it seem like a ghost story when it came out, the end conclusion of what likely happened really got me

It always amazes me how people want to to vacation in cali and they just get blasted by the amount of homelessness in the major cities (SF, LA, SD).  I worked in SF for a few years and almost daily i saw in broad day someone using heroin or crack in alleys

Yeah, I lived in LA for a little over a year and it was right after Guy Mariano's Epicly Later'd came out.  With him talking about skid row, and everything he went through I had to see it for myself. So a guy I worked with who had lived in LA his whole life took me down there.  I don't remember seeing the Cecil hotel specifically, but I can imagine how bad it was considering it was right there.

Ugly Delicious was good

And the Connor McGregor "Notorious" doc was enjoyable!

I watched 'Behind her eyes' with my wife last week.. pretty dull for the most part, the ender ender was an unexpected twist after the predictable one that came before it. the thing that got me the most about the show is how good looking Bono's daughter is!

Bono’s daughter was great in the amazing show The Knick.  Def recommend. 

The Cecil Hotel definitely gives itself away when it mentions in the first ep that she was acting out in the room and the other girls asked her to be moved and then they never went into it further.  Seemed obvious that was the key but they were keeping it in their pocket for later. 


Also, I really enjoyed Moxie, but you’re gonna have to deal with a lot of Nico Haraga playing a sweet boyfriend to the lead

I think this about every fucking documentary on Netflix or any multi-part podcast. I really loathe the modern storytelling format where you get zero real new info in an hour and just more people saying the same shit or adding pointless details. I want to say that it started with the first season of Serial or maybe Up and Vanished. Lately I just watch the first 2 and last 2 episodes of most series and that's enough.
Title: Re: Movies/TV shows that don't suck on Netflix
Post by: childhood on March 08, 2021, 11:56:52 AM
Yeah that definitely seems like the trend for true crime shows right now.

I think it's a combination of people trying to recreate the success of stuff like The Jinx/Making a Murderer, exacerbated by streaming sites focusing on content amount rather than quality.

Murder on Middle Beach on HBO was I think the last true crime series I saw that I really liked, but even that show was kinda guilty of that.
Title: Re: Movies/TV shows that don't suck on Netflix
Post by: ballintoohard on March 08, 2021, 12:18:38 PM
The thing is that Making a Murderer was blatantly misleading as fuck to the point where I can't consider it a legitimate documentary. They left out so much evidence on purpose that they basically just created the story they wanted to see.

Jinx was unrepeatable tho.

I thought Tiger King sucked. I don't find it interesting to watch meth'd out poverty porn.

Cecil Hotel was at least padding out to make a point about the damaging effects of amateur True Crime sleuths.   It’s almost the opposite of I’ll Be Gone In the Dark on HBO which I definitely recommend as it’s free of most gimmicks. 

Murder on Middle Beach partly felt like the kid was exploiting his own families tragedy to make a documentary.   I know the timing of the document release might have made it impossible for the series to include it, but it’s fucking annoying to have a possible cliffhanger like that. 

Night Stalker was a great recounting of the crime.  Straightforward look into the detective work that went into it and crazy to learn he was like a few miles from in Orange County at one point, when I was less than a week old. 
Title: Re: Movies/TV shows that don't suck on Netflix
Post by: ballintoohard on March 08, 2021, 01:40:50 PM
I thought Night Stalker was solid as well. Only thing I wish they included more of was some info on his background. Reading about him after there is some fucked up stuff involving his uncle that likely had a huge impact on who he became.

Prime not Netflix, but everyone should watch It’s A Sin, about the rise of the AIDS crisis in London in the 80’s.  Fucking brilliant.  Expected it to be pretty bleak, and some of it is, almost cried a couple times, but there’s also so much humour and wit as well.  Amazing acting, highly recommended all around.

And if you want to watch something dumb and lighthearted afterwards, Superstore gives you the pleasure of feeling like you’re at a shitty job without actually having to work.

It’s A Sin is on HBOGo in the states.  The guy who works as a tailor looks like a young Alan Partridge.   

Love Superstore btw.   Actually approaches and talks about the dehumanizing policies of big box stores while still being funny.   Going to miss driving by the Cloud 9 exterior in Burbank

I listened to “Last Seen” the other week which was about the Gardner Art Heist in Boston. What a fucking waste of time.

It was guilty of every podcast cliche and a few times when the hosts called attention to themselves it felt like the podcast skit on Portlandia. But the padding was the worst. Let’s talk about the least likely suspect for 45 minutes! Let’s keep circling back to stock phrases like “There was one place where he knew valuable artworks would be easy to steal - The Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum.” They would NEVER abbreviate the name of the museum which began to drive me nuts; like I was listening to someone repeatedly calling me by first, middle, and last name.

I've been on a pretty big mafia movie/documentary kick lately, but Fear City: New York vs The Mafia is pretty good as an in-depth look at what it was like to try to take down the five families in the 70's.
Also, I know it caught a ton of hate, but I thoroughly enjoyed The Irishman. If you have 3.5 hours to kill then give it a shot.

Don’t ask me why (because I can’t say because of NDA) but I had to watch The Irishman about 12-15 times in a month.   It definitely sent me down a rabbit hole of researching who all these people are and how this movie should not be considered truthful in ANY respect.  Also, I think it’s funny he would have been the mafia figure in Scranton, PA so it’s a shame he never ran into Michael Scott
My biggest gripe with The Irishman is that the de-aging effects that they used and reportedly caused it to go way over budget and delayed release and all that, and ultimately for me it was more of a distraction than anything.  You can use all the special effects you want to make Deniro seem like some menacing thug, you aren't going to convince me that he isn't an old man.  They should have used younger actors for the younger versions of the characters, because the time for Deniro and Pacino to do it was 20 years ago.

Exactly, there's a scene fairly early in the movie where he beats a guy up in the street over something I can't remember, but I'm sure you know what I'm talking about having seen it numerous times.  But he's just taking these old man swings at the guy, and that's all that stuck out for me.

Anyone else watch Reply 1988? Its a Kdrama but easily one of the best shows I've ever seen. Really hits hard on capturing that feeling of growing up and having to accept you'll never get the days of your youth back but the show is hilarious with amazing characters and acting all around, only hits hard on the emotional level when you're at the last 2 episodes

I've been on a pretty big mafia movie/documentary kick lately, but Fear City: New York vs The Mafia is pretty good as an in-depth look at what it was like to try to take down the five families in the 70's.
Also, I know it caught a ton of hate, but I thoroughly enjoyed The Irishman. If you have 3.5 hours to kill then give it a shot.
[close]

Don’t ask me why (because I can’t say because of NDA) but I had to watch The Irishman about 12-15 times in a month.   It definitely sent me down a rabbit hole of researching who all these people are and how this movie should not be considered truthful in ANY respect.  Also, I think it’s funny he would have been the mafia figure in Scranton, PA so it’s a shame he never ran into Michael Scott
[close]
My biggest gripe with The Irishman is that the de-aging effects that they used and reportedly caused it to go way over budget and delayed release and all that, and ultimately for me it was more of a distraction than anything.  You can use all the special effects you want to make Deniro seem like some menacing thug, you aren't going to convince me that he isn't an old man.  They should have used younger actors for the younger versions of the characters, because the time for Deniro and Pacino to do it was 20 years ago.

I agree that it shouldn't be taken as an accurate account of that era and that the de-aging process was botched, but I still enjoyed it as a purely entertaining film. But, I say that as a sucker for Scorsese films.

HBO Max just put up the 3rd season of Gomorrah and it was just as amazing as the previous two.  Not sure if anybody else on here watches it, but in my opinion makes the Sopranos looks like a 7th Heaven.  Apparently the fourth season is already over with, but it takes forever to be made available in the US.

It's the best tv that's ever been made.

The Night Stalker documentary exhibits an obvious grudge against skateboards. During the introduction, someone narrates the outsider cliche of L.A.'s facade of glamorous celebrities (Kevin Bacon) masking the "other side" with a montage of satanists, Charles Manson, dead bodies, and a bunch of skaters queuing up for a launch ramp session in Venice Beach (several years after the Night Stalker timeline). Otherwise, half the movie is the director stroking off law enforcement.

I thought Night Stalker was solid as well. Only thing I wish they included more of was some info on his background. Reading about him after there is some fucked up stuff involving his uncle that likely had a huge impact on who he became.

Spoiler alert. The night stalker lived in the Cecil too.  As we watched the Cecil show, I wondered if that hotel season of American Horror was playing off the Cecil internet hype at the time.

check out the documentary "Our Godfather" on Netflix, and if you dig that they made a movie called "the traitor" based on the same guy.

Mission Viejo is also where in OC he went to steal the car.  Heard about it growing up, as it happened 3 days after I was born there, but my mom always mixed it up and said it was the Hillside Strangler and not Night Stalker. 

I’d LOVE a follow up doc on what his groupies have been up to since then.  Really want to know what their lives are like

Ruined fish forever last night with Seaspiracy. Mostly stuff you know already but never looked at because smoked salmon is fantastic with poached eggs. As a film it felt a bit quickly put together but the message is pretty clear.

this wasn't as bad as i figured it would be, but by far the best part of the whole thing is the ending credits where all of the footage is of them revealing the cameras and shit to the people.

4 part documentary that examines the the history of white supremacy & the effect on the world.

Fun fact: Henry Ford donated the proceeds from ford vehicles sold in nazi Germany straight to the nazi party & gave Hitler himself $300,000 for a birthday gift. In fact, the nazi war machine wouldn't have been what it was without the help of General Motors & Mercedes.

I feel like they should show this documentary in schools & was wondering if anybody else here saw it?

Larry Charles’ Dangerous World of Comedy:

Incredibly well done expose about Comedy/Comedians in the most dangerous (or unfunny) parts of the world.  Super intense and hard to watch at times (especially the part about Liberia), but a fascinating look at some goddamn courageous people and some really shitty people who make comedy out of shitty situations.

The parts about Liberia were insane, the parts about female comedians in Saudi Arabia and Nigeria were amazing.  The part about alt-right “trolls” made me wanna kick in my tv screen. 

Also crazy that somebody I know is in one of the episodes. 

Fantastic and highly recommended.

got sucked in to Derry Girls and was bummed that the two seasons went by so quick--i think i miss about half of what they say, so i watch it with subtitles.

i'm not comparing the times and places, but still, it feels like the stories of a group of teenage girls just trying to be teenage girls during the "Troubles" in Northern Ireland might have some value to young folks in the good Ol' US of A currently.

i dig all of the characters, but the head nun (Sister Michael) at their school is fucking hilarious at times

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zogCo3flBsc

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w11TI397hcc

sorry to quote myself, but i'm in the midst of running through these two seasons of Derry Girls again, and felt compelled to repeat everything i say above...the end of the last episode of season 1 had me in tears--again--last night...maybe i'm just getting old...

edit: yep, couldn't help myself, Sister Michael reading The Exorcist here is fucking genius

Totally the wrong thread but HOLY FUCK The Green Knight is a transcendent cinematic masterpiece. It’s so good. It’s been a long time since I walked out of a movie theater wanting to be a better person. The visuals, the soundtrack, all of it is basically perfect. Can’t wait to see it again.

On an appropriate note, I just watched Relic. Lovely tense little horror film that I don’t want to spoil but it’s very emotionally poignant and tense throughout. Worth a watch.

it's good to see the Bloodline love...and season 3 is hectic. funny you mention the setting, because as beautiful as the keys and that part of Florida is, i think the filmmakers are doing some compelling things with how precarious and impermanent all of that part of the country is too and is going to be...like all of those aerial tracking shots where it will cut from some crazy stressful shit going down in the story, right to a character driving (often Kyle Chandler's character, John) alone on some fucked stretch of highway on stilts over an ocean that is inevitably going to take all of that shit back. i know they're meant to be kind of interludes, but in my eyes, those aerial shots of lone cars driving over water on those stretches of highway do a lot to mirror the general feelings of precariousness, isolation, impermanence, and anxiety that permeate the series.

in a series that is so much about the perhaps futility of families seeking familial immortality, as it were, impermanence and precariousness radiating from the fucking landscape just seems to amplify how fucked things are for the Rayburn family as things unravel, and of course for anyone who has the misfortune to get tangled up with them...

Deputy, I enjoyed reading your analysis. You should write more insight about other shows/films. Always sad to finish an intriguing, entertaining series. Stellar staff with the exception of John's son. Quite unremarkable with not much dialogue/action. Very nice contrast to see Belle stand by. John's wife towards the end reminded me of Skyler from Breaking Bad. I also liked Marco's mannerisms during interviews and delivery/tone of Danny's voice.

Yeah agree with you, a couple episodes not as captivating. Binge watching late at night, almost fell asleep during one lol.  Enjoyed the season however felt a little unfulfilled with the ending especially with the creators saying that's the last season. Would have been crazy see another season with part of an episode portraying El Chapo's prison escapes, Los Zetas, Knights Templar Cartel, MS-13 involvement with the cartels, & fentanyl origins. When I was a kid, found out about the Juarez Fermicide through this song...

I think I watched this as I was doing other shit in the house, and was seriously hoping there was gonna be more Chapo and Ms13 near the end.  The Femecide things was actually fucked, not knowing about it at all, kind of killed the whole vibe for me.

The Chapo shoot out scene when he was dressed as a cop was dope tho, airport shoot out was good too

I love riding a snowboard, I dislike snowboarders, straight airs are beautiful, spinning more than 540 looks like ass, going snowboarding for two days costs as much as my yearly skate budget, it’s awesome he was driven by doing something that he thought was fun, his illnesses were super unfortunate but it seemed like a life anyone would be envious of.

We've seen the first couple episodes of The Good Lord Bird. It follows John Brown. It's not completely historically accurate, but it's entertaining. I think they glossed over the broadsword attacks, which was a bummer. Or perhaps it comes later.

Unsure of which streaming service it's on, as we torrent everything.

Binged through all 7 eps of Ozark se4 pt 1 yesterday.  Pretty goddamn boring up until the finale.  Marty and Wendy aren’t nearly as smart and ruthless as previous seasons, Jonah’s a dumb annoying little wiener who gets way too much screentime, Javi is the most generic one-dimensional cartel villain possible, Omar’s checked out, and Darlene doesn’t bring that much to the table either.  Though, Ruth remains a standout character and I’m definitely interested to see what she does in pt 2.  Just felt like they’re stretching this out longer than it has to be.  Hopefully I’m wrong and they bring the heat in the remaining episodes.

I've been pretty over Netflix for a while but due to boredom and nothing good to watch elsewhere I watched "stay close". Overall it's pretty ok UK crime/police thriller thing. I watch tons of shows like this so it's a little samey but mostly pretty solid. however theres one element of the show that very nearly completely ruins it. I can only assume someone paying for it saw this type of thing in another show and insisted they added it in.

Eh I understand the points and in ways I do agree but I think ima have to respectfully disagree. I will say the last season so far isn't blowing my mind like Breaking Bad did.. It even seems like some of the direction is similar. First scene is a flash forward and Ruth is losing it like Jesse did after the last episode. I mostly would agree with the character points.. I feel like the show really isn't stretched out. Any longer perhaps, but 44 episodes or whatever is solid. I'm hoping it ends well and I think it should be decent.

Although I love Ozark overall it definitely isn't a Breaking Bad or Better Call Saul in terms of writing, continuity, and cinematography. Even the soundtrack is kinda odd. Not the original score which I like but like the Pop songs at the end and 21 Savage lol.

hated Javi, worst cartel vibes.  Also adding the FBI agent, she didn't add much to the story season and the interactions with her and wendy are cringe.   Agreed! Jonah sucks, and it seems like he has the hots for ruth.   Wish the daughter had more scree time, shes actually is decent.  Darlene isn't as antagonistic this season which kind of sucked.

Agree this season not as powerful as previous ones nevertheless happy to be back in the Ozark universe. Binge watching just a way of life now. Sucks to have to wait awhile again. Loved the scene when they used two delivery trucks to make the deal right by the race track. Wendy annoying not as bad as Skylar from BB. Ruth the star of the show

Anybody watched the UK miniseries "collateral"? I can't quite put my finger on what but something about the audio is weird. Like everything feels like ADR slightly sped up.

streaming services r shit, every show u wanna watch on netflix, hulu, amazon, etc. can be found online for free within seconds.

shitter shame that almost every show is funded by streaming moguls but it's almost no different than broadcasting companies which are equally bad.

i digress, steal shit. these companies don't need more money.

new season of curb is pretty good (make sure u have an adblocker lmao)

I'm kind of embarrassed to admit this, but my partner convinced me to check out HBO's Euphoria and I actually like it. The story is interesting enough, characters with interesting backgrounds, and the cinematography is pretty nice. Gonna see what the rest of season 1 is about soon.

I watched season 1, it definitely tries to jam every single hardship and ounce of drama that a highschool student could encounter in to one show so it'll generate some eye rolls at times.

Started Yellowjackets. On episode 3, but so far it's basically super intense 'Lost' if it were on a premium cable channel and I'm not mad about it.

Ha, yeah started season two last night and it’s off to a strong start.  Def lots of ding dongs. it’s so funny how far things have come even since Game of Thrones for instance.  That used to be risqué, now it’s tame by comparison.

New season of Ozark jumped the shark.  All every character does now is whine the entire episode.  Looks like they tried to save it with some cheap shock value in episode seven, but too little too late.  It’s miserable and I just want it to end

Humans. It's English show about sentient robots in society. it's one of those shows like the bridge where it was originally Swedish but a bunch of countries made their own versions. I'd already watched the Swedish one so I didn't bother with the others when it first came out but it's been a couple years now and I think it's a bit different so it's mostly new to me. Pretty fun/interesting enough. not a billion episodes to get thru

Mr inbetween. Its so fucking good. Obvious bias as I'm from West Sydney and it's set in West Sydney/Sydney and it's the first show I've seen in ages that really feels like Australia.
I'm usually very anti binge watching but ive seen it before and season 1 is only about 2 and a half maybe 3 hours.
No idea how (or if at all)it's been advertised or is available outside of Aus but of you're bored  give it a go.

that's a great episode, i rewatch it sometimes because the scenes with kelsey grammar are so funny when he plays himself up, yet apparently his character doesn't do shit the whole movie. or at least that's how it seemed to me.

I love RLM…. If I’m ever feelin down, this 30 minute montage of rich Evans butchering words is a quick pick me up

no doubt, there's not many media things that can so easily better my mood than rlm. just the right mix of cynicism and heart in their humor. especially because of rich evans. i love it everytime he gets pissed on video and can't help but speak in this high pitched little angry kid voice. and then imo he also generally has interesting viewpoints on movies when he disagress with his mates.
[close]
Just to add on to the RLM love even if I out aside how funny they are and how good at making videos etc they are genuinely the best film reviewers by several miles. There's plenty others on YouTube and they are all mad budget. Hack the movies might be the worst (at least out of popular ones) they literally just retell the plot of the movie and randomly read facts off Wikipedia. That's not a fucking review. RLM can actually just freely get into any detail about film making or writing.
What's weird tho is I have no idea when I started watching them or how I even found them. I can remember the first time I saw hundreds of other shows but not RLM just one day it was a part of my life.

Raised by Wolves is a weird one. Like it's both good and shit. Just as each episode gets good it ends so you want more but it's never really satisfying. Also it's a really good premise/themes but they seem really underdone. Probably would of been better as a movie (where you can get away with a bit less backstory/details) but I guess it would of been too long and long movies are out and series is in.

Agreed. Watched the season finale last night and it actually made me fucking cry. Didn't think I'd enjoy it that much; much less get attached to the characters, but it's a fantastic show. Plus, John Cena is a pretty cool human.

If you have kids or whatever monkey is on Netflix. It's a bit like 60s batman crossed with Super Sentai based on the journey east/west. Altho thinking back to my childhood it basically influenced a whole generation of kids to hit each other with rakes https://youtu.be/J-SUoHmpRdM

I liked The Tinder Swindler. It's interesting to see how these stories play out in real life, where psychopaths attempt (and often succeed) in monetizing any type of fame.

I watch everything on Amazon Fire Stick/Kodi/Oath so I don’t really know what is Netflix and what isn’t.

I just assumed this thread had become what’s streaming because of all the services now available.

Anyone watch the first part of the Kanye doc, jeen-yuhs?

Say what you will about the man as an artist/designer/celebrity/etc, but watching these early years, he was definitely determined. And we all know he eventually got what he wanted and more. But maybe it's not a good thing to get everything you want?

I'm looking forward the the next 2 installments. The rise and then the spiral into insanity. I don't envy famous people at all and I feel like this could be an honest depiction of how these celebrities really come undone. His interactions with Dug Infinite in the doc (no spoilers) are telling a lot.

I really like the guy behind the camera, Coodie, and his premonition that Kanye would be one of the biggest stars ever was a pretty good guess. It's pretty funny to think he decided to make a documentary on the man when he was living in Newark driving a beat-up Nissan Altima... he definitely saw something.

I loved the Lil Wayne doc that came out when Carter III was just out. I love these types of things about musicians who just work and work and hustle because it's not something that people tend to get a lot of the time. They're just rich and famous musicians who don't have "real jobs".

I hesitated to watch it, but glad I did.   

Best part was seeing the ghetto Kanye behind his desk on his MPC...so sick.  Knowing how much mainstream rap downplayed his rapping was fucked up, glad Mos-def and Talib Kweli knew to take a bet on him.  I still consider the black starr album a pivotal all time hip hop album, so its no surprised they help launch his rap career. 

also incredible how his mom supported him...wish we all had mothers like that.   

Also looking forward to the downward spiral, which i know is going to be a combination of his mom passing and dealing with the crazy ass kardashian family.

I highly recommend but it might not be your cup of tea if not into the music industry 

Sports are different that art,  the drive to be the best is similar but the context for music is entirely subjective, sports its obvious, you win titles in high school/college and go pro.  Not so easy for music and art

I use to make beats and DJ back in the early 2000s and it was a unwritten law that beat makers arent supposed to rap.  When Madlib and Dilla broke that in the independent artist/label, it let the door open to Kayne who broke the commercial label rules of rap.  not so much a big deal nowadays, but back then it was like when dj's started scratching over records

I'd say it's worth a try... It's more interesting than most of the total shit that you can find on Netflix. If you don't like it, turn it off. It's and underdog story of a man who is arguably an actual genius. I loved the first 3 Kanye albums and bought them each the week they came out. Lately, it's a shame what's happened to him, and I honestly have no interest in his music anymore, but anyone who becomes THAT famous is bound to meet some sort of difficult circumstances in life.

The 2nd part was more of the same. When he was playing people Through The Wire it was a really entertaining section of the film. That's when a lot of people first saw Kanye the way he saw himself for so many years, most importantly his boss, Dame Dash. Pharrell's reaction was the best, put a big smile on my face watching it. I remember the first time I heard the song too. I was visiting my old roommate at the bar he worked at and it came on over Hot97 or Power105, I don't remember, and we both were huge hip-hop fans who had gotten burnt out on it in general, primarily because of Get Rich Or Die Trying being played everywhere in NYC for a full year, but as soon as that song came on were were just humming the tune for weeks and waiting for the album to come out. It is a masterpiece of a song.

I'm glad so much time is spent just leading up to the release of the first album, because it really was important in changing music forever, and it's a positive story, and it avoids focusing too much on Kanye's eventual mania... but I guess it's because Coodie was only really around during this time of Kanye's career, at least that's what I've read in a few articles about the film.

Coodie having an underground hip hop tv show definitely helped show the best parts of the music side,  i did find it interesting that coodie wasnt on his first college dropout tour.  Seeing Dame once again confirmed he was one the worst people in hip hop.  Grammy speech was the best part IMO

We watch horror movies on Netflix. I recommend you to watch THE LODGE (2019). I like the variety of movies and series of good quality. Unfortunately, the Netflix subscription price does not meet customers' expectations. New movies and series are released quite rarely. I feel like I've already reviewed everything on this platform. I plan to switch to Roomba TV. Have you heard of such a service? Their good offers attract me. I hope I'll have even more choices for watching movies and series there than on Netflix. Besides, I plan to become reseller iptv (https://www.roomba.tv/iptv-reseller) and make money. I like to sell what I use. If all goes well, I plan to grow in this field further.

What the fuck is this? Some automated spam ad for Roomba TV?

Not the biggest Yeezy fan but I loved part 1 and 2 of this. He didn’t stop till he was doing what he loved to do!

I just watched another thing (not on Netflix) about how Donda died. So. Fuxking. Suss!!!  She should still be alive if it wasn’t for her weirdo cousin with the high pitch voice. And that police phone call is damn hard to listen too.

No wonder it’s fucked Kanye up. He probably feels mad guilty.

That was difficult to watch. I feel for Kanye, it seems his heart is in the right place but the stress of being that famous must be absolutely exhausting. To be bombarded by newscasters everywhere talking about how crazy you are and how you fucked up and all this shit must just destroy a person's soul.

Coodie had the respect to cut the camera a few times, and it shows just how much he cared about Kanye's well-being. Of course, it's his documentary so he's not going to portray himself in a bad way, but I believe his intentions are pure.

I wish they had actually let Kanye say his piece on a number of things in the 3rd part of Jeen-yuhs. Let him speak on Trump and abortion and politics and let the audience come to their own conclusion about it. That was a cheap shot to have the newscasters summarize what he said and contrast that with him playing Tucker Carlson agreeing with Kanye's opinion. Those filmmakers know how most of their liberal audience feels about Tucker and abortion, so they slanted the narrative to fit that and denied their subject the chance to speak for himself. As an audience member I want to be able to make up my own mind about this dude's ideas. Maybe there's something of value in there, but I won't know because I didn't get to hear it for myself.

That said, almost everything else about this was amazing. Absolutely phenomenal archive of seminal events in hip hop history. This would pair well with The Defiant Ones on HBO.

+1

I went into it with no real investment/interest, wondering how they were going to have a character I honestly didn't really like from the Suicide Squad carry a series, but was pleasantly surprised. As the season progressed, the chemistry between the characters and the show overall kept getting better and better. The outtakes and bloopers were also golden.

That scene where he decides to stop filming is hard to watch for sure. Kanye's got some real estate bros there, yeasaying and waiting for money to start pouring their way. Then that shot where Justin Bieber is right in the firing line of an abortion tangent and, aware he's on camera, makes like he's not hearing anything.

Then he flies Wyoming to SF for an afternoon just to watch this nice lady's nondescript but 'jeen-yuhs' bowls. He tells his dad over the phone, you know those bowls we had in the Dominican, at the house? No the other house in the Dominican, those bowls we had? And his dad says I just hope you're doing alright. They check out the bowls and go back to the jet. Madness.

I don't think Kayne was in an honest place, that's why his dad was saying that well maybe you should write your speeches before first.   His mental decline pretty much stems from him not being able to appear sad or weak.   Trump appealed to his famous persona, not his humanitarian nature.  I think the Kardashians were a big part of the mental decline (as noted by some of chappelles jokes about kayne)

I want to know how much Kris Jenner and her team paid/were involved in making sure basically not a word was spoken or clip was used about most of that era, aside from his speech.

I’m no Kanye fan and don’t know much about hip hop history, but I dug the first two parts and can respect the talent, especially witnessing other artists’ reactions.

Hopefully, he gets the help he needs.

Started the "Chernobyl" HBO Miniseries last night. It's astounding just how much the Russian government did not want to acknowledge the severe danger and just how much they couldn't have cared less about their own people.

That’s basically a horror series. Just full on constant dread.

From what I remember in the movie its not a permanent fix either and has to be removed & reconstructed within the next 40 years for it to continue to have effective containment. Like you said, that would not be where I selected my real life multiplayer death match to be. You'd really gotta want to invade Ukraine to do all that. Wtf is this world

Was Netflix ever really that good? I got it kinda late (maybe 2018) after years of everyone telling me I had to get it because of whatever shows or movies. After about two weeks I was pretty much over it. All their original content feels like they just said ok to whatever first draft the writers did. Pretty much every series feels like it should of just been a movie and almost every movie feels like it should of been a short or episode of an anthology style show.

Don't know if non Aus people can get it (I'm sure there's a work around) but SBS on demand is free and has tons of international movies and series. It does have ads tho.(altho often it seems to play without them) also tubi just put up a ton of new horror gems. (Altho they are more 80s 90s video store nostalgia fun because they're kinda bad types)

Honestly i just kept forgetting to cancel it (lazy).. they did have good series Bloodline, Godless, Ozark, but the wells run dry for sure.

2009-2015? Ish Netflix had all the top films/shows/docs it seemed like. Now it’s almost $20 a month. Much rather HBO max by a long shot..

I sat down to eat yesterday browsing Netflix and couldn’t find shit i haven’t already seen. Nothing interesting… just ended up putting on sopranos lol

I watch on PS4 and i cannot stand the previews that autoplay…

I saw Cypress about 10 to 15 years ago at a time you could still smoke indoors at concerts and it was amazing.

Like they went all out to put on an amazing show. Totally exceeded my expectations because sometimes hip hop shows are lacking.

Yea they jumped tracks but each track felt relative to the scene. That exchange with killer mike and the coffee, “I never sleep.” “Why not?” “You know…” I loved it. You know how many heads that flew over.

It felt like forced style when skating, they really didnt need to add that dialogue. 

Not once in my 20+ yrs listen to illmatic did i ever get the perspective Ruth had, plus Nas lived like most NY rappers from the 90s including wu tang.

I was actually waiting for them to play it aint hard to tell
Title: Re: Movies/TV shows that don't suck on Netflix
Post by: Deputy Wendell on May 11, 2022, 09:33:25 AM
throughout the series, the hip hop Ruth's been listening to has been a great way to convey how her horizons are broader than where/who she comes from...or at least that she wants them to be....escaping the Langmore 'curse" is an ongoing thing. not sure if it has to do much with this, but there's also that subtle "hillbilly" versus "redneck" tension going on at times throughout the series, the former supposedly coming with some degree of nobility the latter does not--it comes up with the Snells at points...that may be straying from the conversation...maybe not.

the Killer Mike cameo was interesting...that's all i got on that.

i took the whole Illmatic thing to be her trying to psych herself into doing what she felt she needed to do...not to mention she's from poverty and up against it--whether she's white and rural--so it's obvious how Nas' stories on Illmatic might feel relatable...

Not Netflix, but I've been thoroughly enjoying 'The Offer' on Paramount+, which is all about the making of the Godfather; and 'Minx' on HBO Max. Both are perfectly paced and energetic… and I guess I'm just really into early '70s production design because every set and outfit in these shows get me stoked

I’ll preface this by saying I’ve never been a huge fan of Kanye, his production, his music in general, or his antics, but I enjoyed the fuck out of his new documentary. The first episode alone is such an incredible time capsule of rare behind-the-scenes hip hop history. Definitely gave me a new appreciation for him. Some heavy shit too. Him losing his mom hit me hard as fuck.

So, I had already "read" the book (audible), but the show is good if you haven't. If you haven't started the show yet though, then I think the book would be a better start. It just makes it easier to follow all of the shady bullshit that goes on in the show. Jon Bernthal is fucking perfectly cast though.

Strange question, but did you also have the feeling you had to "adjust" to this kind of comedy again?
I almost looked around and asked "it's ok to laugh with this right?"

And I agree that it could have been a movie.

Still enjoyed it though :-)

I can't remember feeling like anything was particularly off like I shouldn't be laughing at this. Maybe sometimes it might of been a bit of a cheap shot boomer joke but I can't remember anything specific. My attitudes on comedy are pretty relaxed tho.

Watched a documentary named "Fantastic Fungi" with my partner last night. Absolutely wonderful and opened my eyes to the deeper medicinal properties that mushrooms could provide. Highly recommend if you're looking for a light watch; only about an hour an twenty minutes.

Blew through the fist half of Stranger Things season 4 over the weekend, and I gotta say, I liked it.  I really couldn’t stand the last 2 seasons and was kind of dreading watching this one, but I really enjoyed it.  Maybe it was the multiple references to Fulci’s “The Beyond”, or the liberal use of Kate Bush.  I hope it ends on a high note.

Season 2 was bad, 3 was better because it got a little more adult.

This season is straight fire son. That episode with the Kate Bush sequence, the sequence was actually really good even with heavy cgi.
That episode also managed to have one of the best shootout scenes I've seen in any media and they did it all in one shot just to show their talent.

From someone who really was skeptical, ST is probably one of the best produced series/tv shows of all time. Top to bottom.

It was clear watching season 4 that that's where all of Netflix money goes. It's about a thousand times better than all their other shoes combined. Feels like they maybe did more than one draft writing. Altho splitting up a season....geht fukt

I have no reason to think this and I'm not even gonna look it up, but I almost get the opposite sense that they are more hands off. I think the music and style was very original at the time, especially that title theme. I remember seeing just memes in the font not even knowing about the show. Watched just the intro credits and was like, got damn! That's exactly the tone and feel I love in movies and music.. and I'm a picky bastard.

Not Netflix, but "George Carlin's American Dream" on HBO Max is an excellent watch for any Carlin fans.

I read all his books, and his I listened to his specials on my iPod while driving before podcasts were a thing, so it was a fascinating docuseries for me. Really interesting/sad learning more about his personal life.

Highly recommend, especially part two.

i've loved all of the seasons of Stranger Things, but i see what everyone is saying about this new season--it's palpably heavier (everyone's older of course, but it's also moving into an especially crazy time in American/world history) and in addition to what people have said above about being worried for characters' lives, how the fuck did they manage to make a small group of high-school athletes so fucking ominous?

seriously though, last night i just finished episode 4 ("Dear Billy"), and it completelyknocked me on my ass--the Kate Bush song and Max fighting/running for her life was the most beautiful and gnarly moment in the whole series to date...one man's opinion...

That shoot out was crazy good. Felt massively real.

In DnD lore, Vecna is killed by a vampire and someone just got bitten by a bat whilst in the Upside Down, so...maybe there's something there. Maybe not.

You don't like Kate Bush? It's not the scene but the rest of your life that's ruined.


Don't know if on Netflix in whatever countries but British comedy "the witchfinder" only 6 20ish min eps won't die laughing but enjoyable if you're a bit of a nerd. Tim key (from various Alan Partridge shows) daisy may Cooper (this country) and a ton of other British comedy actor cameos.

Swamp thing was rad, but it sucks they had to end the series 3 eps early because they lost their rebate to shoot in that state.  I don’t think it affects the final product noticeably, but it’s a shame that the show was cursed by that and by being on that weird DC streaming service

Hard to do anything real good with so many characters. Big chunks where people aren't doing anything/ what they did do seemed kinda pointless.

I wasn't feeling Season 4 at first, but I definitely got into it when I rewatched volume 1 right before they premiered volume 2. Murray Bauman is by far my favorite character on the show and I was a bit disappointed that he didn't play a larger role but hopefully next season. A spinoff with a Murray and gun loving Nancy Wheeler as bounty hunters in the 1990s would be pretty awesome.

I already watched it all haha. I might actually like it better than Letterkenny, at least so far. Hopefully they drop some new episodes soon, I'm hooked. My fucking internal monologue has taken on a thick rural ontario accent.

Drive to Survive is dope, rekindled my love for F1 and got my wife interested in the sport. Last Sunday we watched the Grand Prix together, something I would not have thought we‘d be ever doing.

first two seasons are okay after that they trainwreck season 3 and 4, get races wrong, and created drama that wasnt real

austrian gran prix was good this last weekend...british gran prix was a good watch too

I never assumed everything was real, it is obvious some stuff is staged, scripted or dramatized.

Yes it‘s great that there are a few teams and drivers competing on the same level at the moment.

Been watching that Keep Sweet, Pray, and Obey documentary on Netflix. I knew the FLDS was a fucking cult and had some dark secrets, but I never knew it was to this extent. It's absolutely insane to think that this was going on very recently.
Warren Jeffs is a true monster in every sense of the word.

I was sorta let down by the end fight with 01 and 11
[close]

i agree...after digging pretty much all of the series thus far, the ending of this season seems pretty ham-handed and greedy...whatever, i get it, it's popular, so of course they want to set up a new season, but they left it in a pretty corny place with hell basically seeping up through the ground and all...maybe i just need to watch that last long-ass episode again...
[close]
Hard to do anything real good with so many characters. Big chunks where people aren't doing anything/ what they did do seemed kinda pointless. Also I kinda hate when people nit pick fantasy shows but whatever, see how fucking broken that max girls limbs were. No way they were fixing that shit in the 80s.
[close]

yeah, Max surviving all of that is another funny narrative move...curious where they're going there.....hey, regardless of what i say here, they'll get at least one more season of attention out of me, unless the first few episodes of the next season are like later-Walking-Dead shitty...
[close]

I wasn't feeling Season 4 at first, but I definitely got into it when I rewatched volume 1 right before they premiered volume 2. Murray Bauman is by far my favorite character on the show and I was a bit disappointed that he didn't play a larger role but hopefully next season. A spinoff with a Murray and gun loving Nancy Wheeler as bounty hunters in the 1990s would be pretty awesome.

yes to all of this...and this shit was funny

Yeah I had never heard of her until season 3. After seeing her in that, I had to look her up because I was confused how someone could be so attractive and of course her parents are who they are lol

I actually really enjoyed part one of season 4. It felt like they ramped up the horror aspect and did some great building on the characters. They did a great job in making you really care about them, which is something that the original season of Stranger Things was really good at.

I'm a little more mixed about part two of season 4. I think they started to do too much with those two episodes. Like when the doctor traps El in that shock collar and stops her from leaving, only to completely switch course in the next scene when the feds show up. But I'm super glad they didn't kill Max. She's become one of my favorite characters and tbh I would've been heartbroken to see her die after everything she's gone through. I'm pretty stoked for the fifth season, which I think is supposed to be the last one.

Sometimes when my fried Dad brain just wants to relax at the end of the day, something like this is exactly what I want. Just over the top action/fun. Watched it last night and it was just what I expected/hoped for. Nothing amazing, but had a lot of fun watching it. And I love Gosling as well in anything.

Ha! There is a lot going on in that show, and it's only on episode 3? Kind of forgot about Irebel, that poor girl, I see a name change in her future hopefully.

The retired Marine is pretty comedy too, such an idiot. Everything people ask him to do he disregards/fucks it up, badly. Nothing says anarchy more than using Facebook. Total shit-show and I'm kind of hooked. The last episode was kind of gnar at the end, holy fuck.

I'm mixed on this like this season as much. I love the weird twilight zone black mirror shit they do, but i wish that was a different show and they devoted all their time to the main cast. Like, the weird shit with the lesbian couple adopting that kid. That was great, but I still rather see more stuff like Van with the Baguette or that stolen phone episode.


It's on Hulu BTW

The fact that Nathan Fielder has chosen to waste his undeniable genius to make a tv show which essentially aims to put on display how people can act somewhat odd is utterly insane. I love it.

I honestly think he might be the genius of this period in time, equivalent to the great thinkers of other eras such as Socrates, or Einstein, or Da Vinci, and I don't mean that hyperbolically. His brain is working differently. Every twist and turn is so absolutely absurd.

My main prob with westworld is I'm trying to figure it out the entire time. Since the first season when I was like this doesn't make sense sometimes people get shot and sometimes they don't. Sometimes the robots are full robots sometimes they're like blood etc like people and thought maybe it was two different timelines now I'm always looking for the (usually time related or someone's actually a robot) twist. Still really like the show even tho a lot of people hate it.

Watched this last night. My friend went and ran out of money and didn’t have anything to drink for a full day. Look at the bands that were headlining this event: Korn, Kid Rock and Limp Biscuit. To try and condem the youth of 99’ based on this event is a bit of a stretch.

I think it's just what happens when you put a quarter million people in one area in a time when nobody was ever really being watched or got in trouble for anything. What's the phrase a person can be smart but people are stupid. Get a huge chunk of dumb meatheads together bad shits gonna happen. They'll never do this shit again.
It reminded me of something I think Trevor Moore(rip) said about it tho like theyre going after everyone for being so shitty to the women (which is obvs fair) but they got no problem now showing all these women nude, probably without any permission, all over their streaming service. Like realistically the people who consented to being naked at the time believed only people in their immediate proximity would see not be streamed in hd into millions of houses around the planet.

Makes me happy when people like Gray Man.   I just find Gosling a fun, charismatic actor and the movie was a fun ride.    Don’t know what else people wanted. 


It’s “funny” that Viggo got kicked in the quad by a horse before shooting Crimes and that’s why he’s sitting or kneeling the whole movie.   It’s weird how it works so much better for his character

Westworld finale was....fine I guess. Last episodes are always tuf to live up to expectations.
Would still def recommend season 1. I think it's enough to stand alone

Just finished the investigation on hbo last night. I thought it was really powerful. For a true crime show to barely focus on the suspect and to instead highlight the grieving of the parents and the dogged and determined work of focused professionals is a much more healthy way to portray true crime. I don't think they say the suspects name more than a couple times and refer to him as the perpetrator which really robs the suspect of the power and infamy that many of them crave. A lot of the divers and navy personnel working on raising the submarine where the crime was committed and the divers who worked on the recovery efforts are also the actual people who led the search which was incredible. The entire show was not lurid and instead focused on the effects of a murder on those who investigate the crime and the grief of the family. Highly recommend

Flight attendant and the new season of Russian doll were shitty enough for me to focus Netflix.  Amazon Prime has Outlaws which is sort of very similar to other British shows I’ve seen but it has Christopher Walken in it which throws it over the top….kinda like Amazon Prime’s Ted Lasso.

anyone see the woodstock documentary, I think the craziest part was the ambulance story on the last night.

Also the UNTOLD documentary on the Hawaiian dude who got catfished was excellent.


Did anyone catch the Leo Baker doc?

I watched the Leo Baker doc last night. I didn't realize it was co-directed by Reda and the cinematographer so that was news to me. It's mostly pretty great and I think non-skaters should be able to keep up and will be interested. They do a pretty good job of explaining some of the things about skateboarding that we all take for granted like contests ain't shit and video parts are what we care about. It's an hour and 12 minutes or so and I think it is probably a little padded out from an original hour long runtime. A heavy emphasis on the monumental significance of the Olympics which will leave most skaters cold but I think that is just a feint for how they present the second half of the narrative. There's some weird dangling dialogue that implies maybe Leo and his GFs relationship is not as solid as it seems that shoulda been cut or expanded on. Otherwise, I was feeling the story and got caught up in the emotional impact of the movie at least two times.

I remember watching "Knight Rider" in syndication when I was a boy and even seeing the KITT car at Universal Studios during a trip as a youth, and thinking the concept for the show (and the car) was pretty cool.  I was looking for something to watch on Netflix the other night, so I started watching the old episodes, and it's pretty fun to watch. I know it's cheesy sometimes and, from what I've read, later episodes got kinda bad. But I was shocked to see the original 1982 series only ran for 4 seasons.

I know they've done a number of subsequent TV movies and failed reboot series (that looked pretty wack) but I would be onboard for a gritty reimagining of the "Knight Rider" franchise if it took itself seriously and didn't pull any punches, kind of like how Antoine Fuqua and Denzel Washington reimagined "The Equalizer".  Maybe an R-rated Knight Rider feature film with Ryan Gosling or something. Seems like a cool property with a lot of untapped potential. I think I like the original "KR" series more than "The A-Team" or most other hour-long 80s action shows.

Knight rider rules. Whenever I watch old shows I just think about how much fucking effort went into every little thing. 4 seasons seems like plenty. It's not the same thing at all really but Miami Vice still goes pretty hard. Incredible hulk and bionic woman are fun Japanese Kamen rider was a fav from when I was a kid too I just unfortunately don't have the same brain anymore and can't watch 100 hours of one show

Miami Vice still goes so so hard. Holy shit guest stars and needle drops, the supporting cast is great, Crockett is a hillbilly straight up and Tubbs is really that cool. Every once in a while, the writing is legitimately great on an episode and even the clangers are entertaining as hell.

The show went through major creative reshuffles so there never weren’t not kinks- everyone failed in their own way, but season 1 was TWD at its best.   (Kinks like that also don’t quite make sense when you have source material but I’ve never compared the two)

It's essentially remixed. Different characters die in the same way in the same scenario as another character in the comic or other times there will be a character death that's a lock from the comic but it will go down different. The main story beats are mostly identical. It's the difference between pen and ink vs logistics, contracts and schedules.

As far as the pilot goes, call it The Very Quickly Walking Dead.

  Hah Ken Leung was surprisingly a big part of lost I discovered when I just watched them all.   Explains his small role in The Force Awakens

I will say, Season 2 tones down the sex part.  It feels like they were victim of a studio note to be more Euphoria in the first season. 

Also, amazing soundtrack

I’m only a little into episode 3, but it’s great so far. I’m from Milwaukee and my dad happens to be a retired homicide investigator who worked on this case. He’s retired now, but he’s still tight lipped about all of this.

Vice Principals was incredibly entertaining and a fun binge with Danny McBride, playing on HBO.  Now I started Righteous Gemstones and loving it as well.  Wasn't the biggest fan of Eastbound and Down but I'll probably circle back to that after finishing these.

Also just rewatched Road House and god damn that movie just gets better with every rewatch

The comic that the movie is based off of is really good as well. The fact that Derf went to High School with Dahmer and was sorta in the same crew is pretty fucked up.

I hear "abel ferrara" and i'm in. I've always liked Bad Lieutenant and King of New York but i recently stumbled across this one. It's basically a Deathwish but its made with the classic dank dripping wet abel ferrara "we'll edit this movie on the same stuff we normally edit pornos and snuff films on"-style.
The protagonist is zoe lund who is the opposite of ugly and also supposedly co-wrote this movie and the heroin scenes in Bad Lieutenant. She apparently loved heroin so much it was her religion, which killed her at age 37. She's a badddd mawfawka in this. Menikmati!

Criterion has a streaming service in the US called The Criterion Channel and it's pretty tight. They rotate stuff off and on and license some other movies that they haven't necessarily put out on some kind of disc but it all feels like a Criterion product still instead of just another dogpile of content. It's thematically programmed similar to what you'd get with an art house or cinematheque. I just ran the 80s Horror trailer and am looking forward to October. There's gonna be about 30 movies they have up for that series.

I realize they wanted to focus on the victims and she was an important character; but in real life, she lived down the street and called the police a handful of times. The sandwich scene was just stupid. I had to go back and fact check a bunch of stuff, but most of the Dahmer stuff was legit. It's wild Balcerzak and Gabrish both got promotions and to this day double down they did nothing wrong.

Derry Girls hailed just as funny as Father Ted on channel 4, it’s a wonderful show about teenagers (gals mainly) and their friends shenanigans in Northern Ireland during IRA’s peak.

I loved the show and characters, I did laugh mainly but there’s a few tear jerker moments but that I’m ok with crying in joy for them.

Happy to read your review because I was thinking I must just be an asshole. Unfortunately this has a few pet peeves for me shows of this genre have been doing over the last few years. Netflix in general but other companies too dramatization of actual events way too fucking long. This should of been five or six episodes not ten. It's like having to eat a whole loaf of bread when you make a sandwich. So much shit on the side that adds next to nothing. Not the worst case of this by far tho.
Feel like all the dialogue is just the characters telling the audience what to feel. Never feels like anyone's actually talking to each other.
I think the worse a real event is the harder it is to make an actual good show about it. 95% of any positive reviews aren't even based on the show it's just because of what's happened. It's not a doco it's just entertainment and as far as that goes wasn't that entertaining but was just ok.
SPOILER: and felt like it just turned into a Tarentino movie at the end.
Also kinda fukn weird to get that actor to play Dahmer. Yes he is very good but he's basically famous for being on that silly show that treats serial killers as light entertainment.
End of bored idiots review.

i'm two episodes into this new season and this is maybe my favorite season thus far...maybe. i had no idea that they were ending it with this season.

and i agree with your other post, it's really hilarious, yet the heavy/poignant points throughout the series--often when the "troubles" in Northern Ireland occurring around them inevitably interrupt their teenage lives--are beautiful and have had me in tears too. this was definitely an especially heavy scene--you know how bad things are because the father-in-law stops hassling the dad for a moment

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B6qVH54WNLY

the adults are all great characters too--especially Sister Michael, Colm...

Hitting most of the main reasons I only fuck with series because of my GF. Usually just too much fluff and filler - making multiple seasons out of a movie  or 5-7 episodes worth of ideas.

Has anyone watched all of the walking dead? I kinda checked out after season 3 or something but saw bits up until last year. Felt like rewatching just season 1 and the zombies break into a run and pick up rocks to smash windows and shit. Is this ever explained or is it just early show hasn't ironed out all the kinks yet?
[close]

The show went through major creative reshuffles so there never weren’t not kinks- everyone failed in their own way, but season 1 was TWD at its best.   (Kinks like that also don’t quite make sense when you have source material but I’ve never compared the two)
[close]
I've been told the source material to show is a bit like the og X-Men movies where they liked the general idea of some characters and themes but basically just wrote their own stuff. (Altho the person that told me this is one of those guys that misses the point of almost every movie).
I guess they could also just explain the season 1 difference as no the zombies didn't run they were just walking very quickly
[close]

TWD show is pretty much exactly like the comics from what I remember.
[close]

Yeah I think they hit the same story beats more or less, but have to stretch out story lines past the breaking point because of the nature of tv budgets, etc
[close]
It's essentially remixed. Different characters die in the same way in the same scenario as another character in the comic or other times there will be a character death that's a lock from the comic but it will go down different. The main story beats are mostly identical. It's the difference between pen and ink vs logistics, contracts and schedules.

As far as the pilot goes, call it The Very Quickly Walking Dead.

SPOILER: funnily enough they brought back the door knob using, rock picking upping, climbing zombies in the latest episode. Went out of my way to watch the talking dead after and they basically just say oh yeah they did it in the first season so it's technically cannon but no explanation to why it hadn't happened again in 12 years. Guess that could be explained in a later episode but there's not many left apparently seems like a weird thing to (re-) introduce now

It’s not a reworking, it’s a prequel.   I believe it was revealed in one of the last episode ms of Tim that his real name is Tom.   All of them are so goddamn funny.   

It’s weird this is considered shitty animation, but I find it so much easier to look at than Family Guy animation (and to an extent Big Mouth)

How can it be a prequel when the kids have smartphones and use gofundme etc?

Whether it is or not isn't too important anyway because it's still great. I like how some of the smaller roles are big names like John Malkovitch and David Duchovny. Nice to see other fans of Steve Dildarian's work.

The animation has never bothered me either but it was a lot cruder in Life and Times of Time. I don't think they ever showed characters walking or moving across the screen lol. That was the biggest difference I noticed so far seeing the kids ride bikes and just walk into a room. In Tim you'd hear footsteps then it would cut to whoever entered or they'd use other creative ways without actually moving the characters.

I think it’s a spiritual sequel/prequel.   It’s the same guy, but there’s not really supposed to be a narrative they’re following or anything like that.   I don’t think they’re setting up to a point where he meets Amy and Stu or whatever

Welcome to Chippendales seems interesting enough for a limited series.   I liked the Pam and Tommy series bc I had no idea about the Seth Rogen story and where that went and this seems to be following a similar manner.   


Pepsi, Where’s My Jet? Is a fun little doc if you remember the contest.   It’s funny to see who pops up on the legal side.

I've been loving Welcome to Chippendales and also thought it was similar to Pam and Tommy. For me, it was new information that Paul Snider and Dorothy Stratten were involved in the start up. It was probably invented but the scene where Steve gets the idea for the club and why they are they are even there in the first place was so great.

The gal that plays Dorothy Stratton is married to David Beckham’s son, if you were looking for some light trivia

This one is a thriller on netflix from Austrailiar, it's good! I don't want to tell you what it is about, in order to give you the same experience I had. I watched 15 seconds of the trailer, stopped it because it looked good and I didn't want a spoiler.

So, for best results, DON'T watch the (full) trailer but DO watch the movie and enjoy!

best thing i've seen in a while. really good acting, beautiful sets, great costume and character design and a really different take on the western genre as a whole. it had tarrantino vibes for me in the character design and the way some of the action sequences where laid out. it's really good at building tension in both action and dialogue scenes. on the flip side it's very hard to follow and if you don't enjoy those kind of shows it's not for you. i ended up watching spoiler episode reviews after each episode so i could better understand what's going on but characters and plot elements that were introduced in the second episode won't be clear or explained until 5 episodes later. to me it's a testament to how well all the other elements are executed when i was really interested but didn't really understand what was going on half the time. my wife and i are getting ready to rewatch it now that we understand the plot.

This is so good. Don't fully know why but Aus makes some of the best grim shit.
Shit that won't matter for non Australians but is nice: lead actor (who's British) actually does a good Aus accent not just a random mix of Aus voices. It fukn feels like Aus. Heaps of production companies make stuff and it's almost like they're trying to give an idea of Aus for other markets but blue tounge makes it real.

The story is based on the Daniel Morcombe case. Maybe not as well-known outside of Australia?

i agree about Kyle Chandler. as things really start to unravel in Bloodline, it gets stressful to watch it actually, and his role and acting is mostly what does it.

Guy lived in a pretty normal house to be a “prominent” lawyer but that could be just a skewed perception on my part.   But I don’t get why cops would protect the lawyer anyways.   If what happened that Kai said happened, it doesn’t absolve him of what Kai did to him

Kai claimed the assault happened and he left, then called dude a second time for a place to crash.  I don’t know about you, but I’m not going back somewhere I was assaulted like that unless it was for revenge.  Story is so nuts.  Crazy to think this all happened in the span of 3 months.

Yeah I've seen one episode but I kind of got burnt out on adult cartoons a little while ago. I did mean to go back and watch it but forgot tho. I'll give it another go

I’m not necessarily recommending it, just wondering if it was on your radar.   I’ve only seen an Ep or two

Realising now it's less on my radar than I thought lol I think I just saw a pilot episode that's was on Australian tv a while back. I'll sometimes get a little worried when things are overly proudly Australian especially when aimed at international audiences. I think the full series is only on Disney here so I might not get to see it for a while anyway

i'm pretty sure this has come up before, but i just watched The Highwaymen again, and i do dig it

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aH6vC-BBKOc

as always, "official trailers" rarely do justice.

funny how "history" is working in these kinds of films. admittedly, i haven't seen it in a while, but i know the film Bonnie and Clyde (with Faye Dunaway and Warren Beatty) is sympathetic to Bonnie and Clyde and casts them as fairly righteous class rebels

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2GM0LKQ-ml0

which of course, means representing Texas Ranger Frank Hamer as a kind of monster--which is not to say that he wasn't one. one way i remember they do this, is by not giving him many lines, or face shots (and if so, weird close-ups), and by focusing mainly on his killing. i could be a bit off here, since i have not seen the film in a while, but i feel like i remember it that way. this new Netflix version, focusing on Ranger Hamer (and his partner Maney Gault), reverses this--you only get bits and pieces of Bonnie and Clyde, and they're almost always when they're murdering someone.

anyway, i'd be curious about what other heads in here think about this. historically, i've always been sympathetic to Bonnie and Clyde, because of the time and the circumstances of the time, but it is easy to overlook that they were fairly cold-blooded killers who did more than just defend themselves against the police...

Texas Rangers are usually creeps, idiots, and tools of the Texas establishment to disenfranchise non-whites and steal their land, but I do seem to remember in my research of them that Hamer was one of the better (almost good) ones.

yeah, i've read mixed things on Hamer and the Ranger history is pretty well known. i'm also wondering about the timing, culturally--telling the story from a vantage point sympathetic to "law enforcement" in 2019 like this and how besides-the-point the class politics is for the most part in this new telling...

@Blind Fisherman I'm in a similar spot since I finally just got around to watching Silicon Valley last week.

Also, if anyone has got HBO and you have a hankering for some supernatural horror 30 Coins is a fun show. The aesthetic kind of bops around from well done horror to b movie horror to daytime soap opera to cinemax late night and then to the Matrix for some reason before going back to decent horror. Heavy Catholic vibes with Vatican conspiracies and gore aplenty.

Since there's a new full-length Christmas special out, we are re-watching "The Detectorists", which is honestly one of the best shows in decades. Any one of you grown-ass men still meeting with your friends to practice your hobby/obsession (skateboarding) will relate. Everyone describes the show as "gentle" and that's true, but re-watching it now I realize that it's probably the most accurate depiction of male friendship I've ever seen in a TV show.

Could they be trying to bury it so it doesn't compete with their American product? This country and people just do nothing are both great but it's hard to ignore them doing the David Brent so often. I guess Gervais probably got it from somewhere too tho so it's all fair.

I don’t think so, it just doesn’t have any streaming deal or is on dailymotion. 

HBOgo still updates their BBC Ghosts, Miranda is still on BritBox or whatever…   

i don’t think many people would even realize “Welcome to Flatch” is “This Country” (it took me to the middle of the pilot to realize) or that “Call Me Kat” is “Miranda”.   From what I’ve seen, they usually try and prop up the originals when the remakes come out

Also, I’ve mentioned Miranda a bit - that is not an endorsement or recommendation

Also, Tokyo Vice was pretty fun too - I think it's HBO Max.

I think I’m in the vast minority who’s actually enjoying the new season of You.  Was getting extremely bored with Joe going through the same romantic/murderous motions over and over in previous seasons.  Which may sound hypocritical considering the same thing is kind of happening this time around, but at least the murder mystery plot gives it a fresh twist.  Only watched the first 4 episodes so far, though.

Also binge watched the first few episodes of Your Honor season 2 which has been great, except for Fia going on and on about Adam, which may be relevant but still exhausting.  Hate having to wait for new weekly episodes in 2023 but what can ya do.

Adam underlined my problem with shows like that - the children of the main characters kill these shows stone dead.   I mean on every premium network that isn’t HBO.   They could have cast a better actor than Adam, but he brings that same exhausting energy to that Wednesday show

I think the worst thing that happened with it is it came out at the same time as Barry and even tho they're completely different there's no way to do the general elevator pitch without them sounding like the same thing. Eg it's a show about a hitman trying to live a normal life. It's mostly dramatic but has some really funny parts too

Kinda been digging The English on Prime.   

It’s a western series starring Emily Blunt and an Native American actor, that seems from the first two minutes like it’s going to be some dusty romance where two people from opposite ends of society find love, but after that prologue, it definitely runs far from that idea and becomes a nice, stylish western we all love

AppleTV has a pretty solid hit/miss record.   Liaison with Vincent Cassell and Eva Green is promising.  Slow Horses is great.   Bad Sisters was great.

Severance is hands down one of my favorite TV series. The way that it's done and the acting are all impeccable, and it becomes such an interesting crossover of genres. I'd honestly recommend getting Apple TV for a month just to watch this show. Once you get into it it'll be hard to put down.

My partner and I just watched that new Junji Ito anime series on Netflix and I really liked it. The first episode wasn't great but all the other ones after that were solid. They're all individual stories too so you can pick and choose whichever ones you want to watch. We were so into it that we started watching Death Note afterwards lol. Super good so far too.

Watched the "Predator" prequel "Prey" on Hulu today and the positive reviews are not unfounded. I watched it in English first, then watched the un-subtitled Comanche dub version.

I think it is the best in the franchise, better than the original (which is only okay to me, though I have come to appreciate it more over the years). It was impressive how director Dan Trachtenberg had the ability to take the existing story elements we are familiar with and adapt them into the 18th century Great Plains setting with a female protagonist in a Comanche tribe that we care about/identify with, and give us a bad ass updated version that examines themes like coming-of-age, what it means to be a warrior and the destructiveness of colonialism.

Loved the juxtaposition of the primitive weapons of the Comanches and the French fur traders against the high-tech weapons the Predator was armed with. For the most part, it seemed to be period-accurate, paying great attention to detail with respect to the costuming and tools used by the characters.

The protagonist's dog was ill as fuck (maybe the best canine sidekick since Mad Max's in "The Road Warrior"), the effects were passable (if not impressive) and the Predator itself was very intimidating.

I was very entertained.

Prey > Predator > Predator 2 > Predators > all the rest

It's especially hilarious when they get all bent out of shape about it when the source material is diverse too. "WHY DID YOU CHANGE THAT CHARACTER!!". Homie, the character was gay/black/asian/bi/androgynous in the source material too.

Season 2 of Perry Mason premiered earlier this week on HBO and the first episode was pretty interesting.
Initial thoughts:
Sean Astin has some real acting range. I never knew that.
The villain seems promising.
Perry Mason's apartment is fucking messy. I like that he's kind of disgusting.
I particularly enjoyed this line of dialogue:

Really didn’t want to watch yet - a show like this works better for me to binge, but I did

Thought it was funny in the pilot when that Mexican lady fucks him into the ground between the bed and the wall and he barely moves.    He really has a knack as an actor to look so defeated and beaten down but without the fire completely extinguished.   

I wonder if the shooter was who they were strongly hinting at.

I really fukn hope not. This is probably my favourite genre of series and the last few years have had way too many where the obvious person you think it is the whole time turns out to be the villain so you may as well of stopped watching after one ep. Altho in saying that season one you kind of knew who the main villain was from pretty early it was more about the complete how/why and how perry and co would solve it.

Right, we’re not even sure what the legal case is yet and how it would get Perry back doing criminal work so I’m thinking the death is just the first building block.    The church wasn’t even introduced really until the second ep of the first season

Been rewatching "The Royle Family" it's so fukn funny. I only rewatch it every couple of years but it gets better every time. Probably work better if you're in your 30s or even better 40+ and have to be paying attention. Not really a show you can be on your phone or just have on in the background and still get it.
Not for everyone tho you have to like more subtle stuff and get some 90s/00s references I've def recommended it to people that just didn't get it/ outright hated it.

Hah I know it doesn’t affect how most people view it, etc, but it’s nails on a chalkboard to me like when you read someone who doesn’t know anything about skating write something like “Ollie flip” or shit like that

Looks like someone taught Ted Lassi about Zlatan

If you liked Dragged - check out Bone Tomahawk (western) and r Brawl in Cell Block 99.   BT got more hype, but 99 was right up my alley

I lost interest in "Arrested Development" when Buster's hand got bitten of by the loose seal and stopped watching, but have checked many episodes after that sporadically, and there's always funny stuff (Bateman living at Cera's dorm, Maybe setting up the To Catch A Predator sting and Tobias getting caught up in)...but the drive of the narrative ended for me with Buster's hand (guess it seemed like it jumped the shark). I generally am not a big fan of Buster or Gob.

Curious as to what you guys watching "Perry Mason" thought of "The Night Of" where it ended up not being so much about the crime at hand but how the prison system is so fucked.

Really like Perry Mason and def enjoyed (if that's even the right word for this) the night of. I think shows and movies like that is why I'll never ever be scared of an actual horror movie

She did a movie with Randall Park in it (romcom would be too reductive) that was pretty great.

They had a new doc when it was an anniversary year on Netflix, but their story doesn’t really suit a movie/tv show as there was no dramatic showdown or courtroom battle.   They’re more of a documentary cult

I would say so. She comes across differently in the show than with her stand ups. It is definitely worth a watch regardless of your feelings towards her. The show is as funny as it is beautiful and tragic. Steven Yeun's performance alone will make the experience worth it.

Joining the choir on Beef, just finished it.  First couple eps I was like okay, pretty exciting but hope it doesn’t just turn into another show about new-age shitty people who cheat on each other.. I can’t even believe how much deeper and well-written it got from there.  I really did a 180 on how I felt about most characters over the course of the show.  If there isn’t another season I’d be satisfied with the ending, but they really set it up well to keep it going.

Yeah for sure!  It’s so damn entertaining and impressive.  Great writing and sort of amazing performances.  It’s like long form improv meets Truman Show or Joe Schmo Show meets the Office haha.  Pretty incredible but odd and unique.  Ultimately extremely pleasing.  A rare show I could and would recommend to everyone.

Alright forgive me for this tangent, but I also finished BCS last night and have to go off just a bit.. Hot take… but I felt the last season and ending were pretty boring and underwhelming.  My partner and I got a little heated because she thought it was great and meaningful and tied everything up nicely.  I disliked it for the same reasons.

So after 6 seasons of Saul being a POS, he finally gets caught and has this grand revelation and saves the girl?  It’s just a little too perfect and corny imo.  Also, season 4 and 5 were absolute barn burners, super intense.  That’s why I watched the show.  Season 6 had it’s moments for sure, but it was like 90% people just walking, standing, sitting in silence pondering.

It was great if you were seeking closure, and were watching it for the sake of character development.  If you were watching it because you enjoy gritty, fast-paced crime dramas, which BCS teases you with sporadically, then season 6 was a disappointment.  Then again, I should’ve picked up on that when the majority of the series’ beginning was about his narcissistic mentally ill brother.  Breaking Bad was the same though, way too drawn out at times and way too much filler that doesn’t really contribute much to the plot.

Im with your partner…my second time binging BCS and an amazing ender for me.   Everything leading up to the howard incident was excellent.  The nacho chase with the salamanca cousins was dope.  The lalo ending a little underwhelming but still liked the lead up.   Sauls demise being the ice cream request was hilarious.

*SPOILERS AHEAD*









I was upset over Lalo’s ending (mainly because it felt anticlimactic), but Howard Hamlin that was just down right dirty… i mean i guess i get it but still. the final season dragged on a bit similar to the final season of breaking bad where i was just like, “end it already”.


I thought the courtroom ending was bittersweet. Kind of all leading up to a Saul turning babyface over heel. i still kind of thought he was gonna throw Kim under the bus for a second tho..

Maybe an unpopular opinion, but think i enjoyed BCS more than breaking bad. Had much more humor.

Jury Duty on Freevee is good!
[close]

Right?!   I misunderstood the concept before I started watching (thought it was a sitcom) but really enjoyed it and thought it stuck the landing.   (Freevee exists inside of Prime for anyone unaware)
[close]

Yeah for sure!  It’s so damn entertaining and impressive.  Great writing and sort of amazing performances.  It’s like long form improv meets Truman Show or Joe Schmo Show meets the Office haha.  Pretty incredible but odd and unique.  Ultimately extremely pleasing.  A rare show I could and would recommend to everyone.
I thought this show was good but also that the actors kind of played it too safe - once they kind of tested there perimeters of what he’d believe in the first few they really didn’t push it beyond that , the fact that he won money and they said they were testing his character etc. made it better for me at the end. Still it’s kinda like if you met me and I said my name was craig and I liked boxing for a week - then a week later I was like “surprise my names John and I like skateboarding!” It’s a believable and mundane lie. And the only thing that’s funny is that I sort of tricked you but the trick is really stupid and boring

Been lacking in the whatever threads so gotta catch up especially here but I will say this now - I really liked beef, ya idk bout season 2 after that ending unless it follows a totally different story. Idk if these are Netflix or not (my girl has like all the streaming services and I never know what’s going on ) but here some other recent shows I’ve been really into

The swarm - if you liked Atlanta imagine that mixed with the Ted bundy series

Yellow jackets - one of those shoes that makes your week implode as I’m measuring time now by how long I have to wait for the next episode

Severance - this show rocked my world it was so good - Ben stiller shook any conception I had of his creative abilities off the table

How to with John Wilson - I found this show while in Europe about a year ago and it’s an amazing docu style show that strokes my autism receptors and it’s just as funny as it is informative and interesting. Also if your missing the US or nyc while traveling it gives a good dose of that flavor in various ways each episode

I’m also a big trash consumer - been keeping up with current survivor season and catfish episodes - we got any survivor fans here? I’ve seen every single episode

Any of you watching White House Plumbers?  I think the first episode was a bit clunky and the choice of using Crystal Blue Persuasion repeatedly was such a derivative move - but Justin Theroux as G Gordon Liddy getting zinged by a CIA safe house operative played by Councilman Jamm actor Jon Glaser had me laughing so loud that I think my neighbors got annoyed. I'm hoping the following 4 episodes are better crafted.

It’s a far superior version told from the perspective of Martha Mitchell (Julia Roberts), but that’s all I’ll say.   Shea Wigham’s G Gordon Liddy is so damn good too

Ah I just saw your earlier post about Gaslit. I have a heavy aversion to all things Julia Roberts but I'm equally fascinated by G Gordon Liddy so I'll definitely give it a shot.
As far as Crystal Blue Persuasion - that song is just so established with the show Breaking Bad and I find them using it on Plumbers to be either lazy or derivative (even if it is some kind of misguided homage). Plus there's plenty of late 60's music out there to pick from. I don't know. Maybe that's a silly point I'm making but I think it's indicative of the show's inadequacies.

Gotcha.   Honestly, didn’t remember that being used in BB, I just remember Windy, but I agree about the general note of that happening after a series has made a song iconic.   

Gaslit is far from the Julia Roberts show.  It’s more of an ensemble piece.   I’d say it’s as much her and Sean Penn as it is Liddy and John and Mo Dean. 

HBO has just a little bit of a UNlucky run right now where two of their current shows (the other is Love and Death) were kinda scooped by other services before they could get theirs out so they sat on them for a bit to put some space in between.   Bad luck with public domain stories

Me and my girl rented a cozy Airbnb by a peaceful river in 2021. No TV was available, so we watched "Sweet Tooth" on her phone at night. We got hooked quickly by its amazing storytelling, cinematography, and character development. We couldn't wait for season 2 to come out. Finally, after two years, we saw it last weekend, and even though it was well-made, it didn't have the same magic as watching the first season premiere snuggled up in the dark with a tiny phone. However, we're still big fans and can't wait for season 3 to see what happens to the characters. We're super excited!

Might not just be a matter of watching season 1 in a more whimsical situation, my girlfriend and I really liked season 1 but so far we're not loving season 2 quite as much. But then, we're only 3 episodes in and it's still definitely good enough to keep watching.

Would have never checked out if y’all weren’t raving about. Thank you. Wow a masterpiece. Provoked whole spectrum of emotions. Felt amazing to laugh that hard. The church scene heavy, I legit almost started crying. Also the scenes with mysterious witch lady absolutely terrifying. Actually rewinded to experience those goosebumps again. An abundance of mental shortcomings & themes that forced an evaluation of our  own lives. Lastly, running time of each episode perfect. Needs to be the new standard. Less is more . Again thank you Pals…that series wow

I just started Cabinet Of Curiosities the other night. So far it's been really interesting and it has incredible set design/decoration. I was watching the third episode last night - The Autopsy - and actually had to pause it because it got me too wound up ha.

This is my beef with Apple TV+ content. It all seems designed to sell adjacent products and maintain whatever market share they have. I would imagine this is true for every streaming brand but it's hard for me to miss in Apple's content.

I don’t understand that at all.  How is that the case in Silo, Foundation, Slow Horses, Physical, Severance or any number of shows?   I don’t see shows inundated with Apple products anymore than our actual reality is.

Amazon on the other hand uses X-ray to show you how you can buy the clothes Priyanka Chopra is wearing on Citadel, etc but it’s hardly obtrusive if you don’t know how to access it. 

(Also I haven’t dealt with Netflix personally, but NO ONE any where in the industry takes someone’s first draft.    Shows get watered down because there are so many goddamn notes from every which way.  I don’t want to say that your dismissive view on what writers contribute is part of the reason we’re striking, but I’ll think it pretty damn hard hah)

I don’t disagree that Netflix takes a buckshot approach.  (Sorry a little raw about the strike)    I also forget that people who doesn’t have an eye on what’s released every week on every streaming service might find it more difficult to fend their way through all the morass.   

Interestingly, that’s one of the main reasons studios like Amazon/MGM still release movies in theaters even if it’s financially a sunk cost - even if people didn’t see Air in theaters, they’ll recognize it as a movie that WAS in theaters when they see it on Prime and that helps distinguish it and brings “cred” to their service.

They knew the money spent on Air (north of 100M) would never be recouped in ticket sales at the BO.   In addition to what I said earlier, theatrical releases are also a way to curry favor with directors

Totally true. For a while my overall mood was to just watch to see where it ends up but glad to see this one come in strong. Overall will probably give the season a rewatch but don't think I'll change my mind about the lower points that seemed completely unnecessary

This season has been pretty rough for me and may have motivated my anti AppleTV+ sentiments earlier. I decided to bail two weeks ago but I will probably circle back after reading this. I have just not been into the Nate storyline at all and I think they sorta fucked that character.

I'm gonna miss Succession. I don't think anything has made people walking and talking in rooms more compelling. I realize this is kind of a big statement in a format where Aaron Sorkin has been working for decades but I think it stands.

House of Hammer on Max is a really interesting deep dive that I wasn't expecting to be there and is, as they point out in the actual series, weirdly close to what does down on Succession.

Oh you mean you thought the story line where a super successful manager in his first year who elevated a nothing team to the top of the league but gets fired because he won’t arbitrarily cheat on his girlfriend at the owners behest was super dumb??

Or that Keeley’s business shutting down because her momentary girlfriend/finder decided on a whim to be the shittiest person in the world?

This season has been pretty rough for me and may have motivated my anti AppleTV+ sentiments earlier. I decided to bail two weeks ago but I will probably circle back after reading this. I have just not been into the Nate storyline at all and I think they sorta fucked that character.

I'm gonna miss Succession. I don't think anything has made people walking and talking in rooms more compelling. I realize this is kind of a big statement in a format where Aaron Sorkin has been working for decades but I think it stands.

House of Hammer on Max is a really interesting deep dive that I wasn't expecting to be there and is, as they point out in the actual series, weirdly close to what does down on Succession.

Oh you mean you thought the story line where a super successful manager in his first year who elevated a nothing team to the top of the league but gets fired because he won’t arbitrarily cheat on his girlfriend at the owners behest was super dumb??

Or that Keeley’s business shutting down because her momentary girlfriend/finder decided on a whim to be the shittiest person in the world?




For everyone reeling from Succession’s end, check out Jesse Armstrong’s back catalogue (w/ Sam Bain).
Babylon
Peep Show
Fresh Meat
My mind is blown. I am admittedly super late to the Succession party as I binged 1-3 in the months leading up to 4 but I've been a Peep Show fan since season 1 and never put the name together. Fresh Meat is also great although different enough that I couldn't get PS fans I knew into it. Babylon is a new name to me. I'm psyched to close a loop in my head here.

Fresh Meat took me a second try but I love it once I got into it

Babylon first ep (90 min pilot) was directed by Danny Boyle.  It was a police drama - I enjoyed it and you definitely feel them finding their feet as writers mid-way through to the point that it’s a bummer it ends when it does

we are watching succession and feel it's good enough to watch but find the dialog to be really corny. my wife and i pretty quickly made the old drinking game joke "you have to drink when someone tells someone unnecessarily to 'fuck off' or makes a gross analogy that involves a dick and food." such a weird and unnatural writing style and they do these things in every episode.

Overall I did enjoy it but fuck I am pretty sick of the time jump gimmick. Can't even blame Barry it's like 96% of shows do it. Kinda didn't like how Barry's character changed so much (altho I'm guessing that's the point) and I never gave a shit about Sally, sure she didn't deserve for things to go so horribly but she was a shitty person so I just don't care (again that's probably kinda the point lol I'm more critical of a regular shitty person than I am with Barry, hank etc). Randomly watched a season 1 ep and was like oh yeah this used to be mostly a comedy don't think I laughed once since he got out of prison but I guess shows evolve as they go

Edit: the reason I'm asking it is because the media are saying the series are on top 10 not only in Portugal but several other countries and I was curious if it is showing on your feed

I will say i really love how hilarious it can be one minute and completely fucked up the next… Fuches coming out of prison all shot caller style was one of my fav tv moments in a long time. Made me laugh my ass off..

other than the occasional classic like taxi driver or blade runner when they're up, I rarely watch any new shows on netflix anymore.
That said, I did get into Cunk on Earth after seeing some reels on youtube and imo it definitely did not suck.
pretty funny mockumentary if you're into British humor but not necessarily into world history because that's what the show is all about.
just 5 episodes long to cover the whole history of Earth starting with early civilization, religion, art, war and the industrial revolution.

I thought the end of Barry was very good but I didn’t “love” it. The same could be said of much of the final season. I was really impressed by the writing and admired how ballsy is was to take the story there but that admiration was somewhat clinical.

Fuches’ plot line may have ultimately been the most satisfying.

Post by: BallDontLie on May 30, 2023, 03:49:48 PM
That’s fair… it felt like that with a few shows final seasons recently (better call Saul especially comes to mind)…Rush rush to tie up loose ends.

Would’ve been cool to see a little more post Barry.. maybe with the son and Fuches. Also wish we they had given us more NoHo vs Fuches stuff lol

I will never not enjoy that Kendall thought it would so “baller” to name his rich white son Iverson and that his son is a little nerd

I don’t mean this in a grandiose way, but Succession and Veep must feel like what it was to watch Shakespeare back in the day.   Modern audiences are always told how dense and joke filled the dialogue is with juvenile humor, etc, but it’s lost on anyone who’s honest and I just image how difficult the things they say in these shows must be to parse in hundreds of years times and how students stare blankly at a teacher who tries to explain the humor in a marzipan dildo.   

Barry didn’t feel rushed to me, but I think it’s a show I would have preferred to volume watch than once a week.   Impact dissipated a little bit with the wait. 

Succession stuck the landing for me.   There’s always some weird impulse that wants some out of character fireworks to happen on the final episode, but I’m glad the show stayed true to itself whilst still giving the needed fights.    Tom putting the sticker on Greg’s forehead was such a chef’s kiss moment

I'm a little disappointed with the new season of I Think You Should Leave. I was really looking forward to it but most of the skits feel incomplete or lacking the same insane magic as the first 2 seasons. I'm only half way through but ep 3 has been my favourite so far. Season 2 really feels like the peak of the show now but maybe I'm just not in the mood for it right now and forcing it because I'm bored and can't sleep.

Yeah that one was good. At times it does feel a little like they just redo these same 5 sketches but slightly different or the whole joke is he's doing his squint or yelling but that pig sketch had me dying. I appreciate they know to get the laugh and end the sketch which is something I wish many other sketch comedies would do better. Def gonna rewatch at least one more time (prob a few more) and it felt like the later eps were funnier than the first

Agreed, def a risk to do a show with a shared premise in each sketch (along the lines of not backing down ever) but I think they know their limit somewhat which is why it’s 6 eps of 15 minutes.    A minute extra would probably wear out it’s welcome for most

That was a good one, really enjoyed the driving crooner sketch too. When we just started puckering his lips over and over without saying anything before you know why had me dying. But I'll agree with Steely Daniel, this hasn't been my favorite season so far...

I've only watched episode 1, at the end I was thinking "please let the next 5 episodes be better".
I liked "you're only here for the zipline" and Driving Crooner, but stuff like the fake water splashing at work felt like they picked up something from the cutting room floor from season 1 or 2.

I thought the Kendall bender on Season 1 was the best shit "Im officially a Meth head" fucking lol,  probably my favorite was how he rapped at his dad's b-day " L to the O.G."

Mixed feelings on the ending...seriously got blindsided by that fight at the end with Rom and Kendall. Tom and Gregg fight was funny as fuck too.

Rethinking my they just kinda redo the same sketches comment and it's probably a little harsh when I think about all the other sketch shows that literally do the same sketches every week. I guess the only difference is it's not packaged as specific characters like mad TVs stuart, fast shows "suit you sir", full frontals Milo Kerrigan, poita etc

Season 3 is growing on me but if there's a season 4 I hope it has significantly less of the whole "being crazy and awkward in the corporate office" schtick. Across all seasons like 50% of the sketches take place in corporate offices. Branch out, man, there are millions of places where awkward shit can go down, explore the space.

i agree that next season they gotta switch it up. they need to try something other than a corporate office, house party, commercial, or game show. it's getting repetitive. not to say it's not funny, but they need some fresh ideas to make it not boring going forward

new season of black mirror is super good

They rolled out a damn near perfect season until Josh Hartnett popped up. Jesus Christ his acting was so bad.

Anyone watching the new season of Always Sunny? Maybe I'm too fixated on how weird mac, dee and Dennis look but it seems to suck ass.  I still can't get past the fact that Dees character wears $500 sneakers every episode either

It’s on Hulu but has anyone watched Gordon Ramsay’s Food Stars?  Utterly flawed program but I love the chaotic underdeveloped nature of the first season of a new show.

I thought the first two eps were high level Sunny and then the third one felt like an off episode. Later that week, I was laughing to myself at how gross the resolution was. Most of the off ones are better on rewatch and a few of them have become classics to me.

I was down for the show to end maybe 5 or 6 years ago when the cast started getting becoming unavailable but I think they have worked out a smooth schedule now and should just keep it going forever.

EDIT: I still have no idea what bit Mac was doing when he was talking to Chase Utley. What was that voice all about?

I saw the director's cut at an art house and thought that movie was amazing. The bad rep is partially for the absolute hatchet job they made of the theatrical cut. Once Upon a Time in America levels of fuckery. I'm glad they finally made it available on video.

This is excellent.

Reminds me of another doc concerning an egocentric young filmmaker, also with Dafoe…

https://youtu.be/CwsSiThU0ik

Quote
This documentary follows Troy Duffy, a brash, foul-mouthed bartender whose screenplay for an action film called "Boondock Saints" scores him a generous contract to write and direct the film for Harvey Weinstein at Miramax Studios. Duffy's band, the Brood, is also in the midst of signing a contract with Madonna's Maverick Records. Duffy's fiery manner is instrumental to his success, but when the deals go sour, no one seems safe from his explosive temper.

I’ve got one ep left.   I’m not sure yet what I think - I like the ideas/message, but not sure if I’m wild about the execution.  I felt the same for his feature, where I was very on board for the movie up until that final act.     

I’ve been watching two at a time, I don’t remember ep 1 being that way, more establishing tone and premise and ep 2 is when it gets into things into topics I liked.   Don’t want to quite give away some things about the plot that go beyond him being 13 ft tall yet.   


I’m def going to watch Secret Invasion as a binge or mini-binge.    Eps are too short to satisfy one at a time.   I ignore the general complaints about Marvel bc that’s just kinda the cool thing to do now.   I’ve only really been underwhelmed by Eternals bc it was a ripped off Watchmen’s structure for no discernible reason.   I can usually find something I like about the other ones…I think

It’s not too bad… nothing spectacular. But it’s kind of nice to get something a bit more low key. Last thing i watched was the antman movie. Meh.

I haven’t seen all the current movies, but I’ve enjoyed most of the mcu shows… only thing i worry is secret invasion will be concluded relatively quick (only 6 episodes) where as i think in the comics it was a big thing. Would be cool if it has affects on the the future mcu stories though.. I’m assuming it will.

Catching Killers on Netflix is a super solid series.  40 minute crime docs about old cases with interviews and reenactments- a classic format, but I think this is best of breed.  It’s well-executed.

@Atiba Applebum @BallDontLie the first episode of Secret Invasion was pretty cool actually.
The writing/dialogue didn't knock my socks off by any means but I'm a sucker for the alien invasion genre in general and I'm always looking for a little taste of that magic from 1983 "V" or 1978 Invasion Of The Body Snatchers.
I never read the Bendis comic books so I'm not sure how word for word the script and story are but an aging Nick Fury alone is interesting enough as a subject to hold my attention for awhile. I'm also interested in the non-superhero side of MCU.
There are a lot of moments that were either cliche or where I couldn't help but wonder why they didn't use obvious opportunities to make the dialogue more complex/nuanced and the visual elements more engaging. As an example- there's a fight in an art gallery storage area that lacks real energy or threat of danger. Why not make it slightly more interesting and throw some "priceless Picassos" at each other? Just stuff like that to make the walls seems more solid and less set-like.
I'm about to watch episode 2 so my whole opinion could shift within the hour.

Didn't even realize it was on so thanks for the heads-up even if it does suck. The last season I wasn't too impressed with either. Gotta catch up on this still and new Righteous Gemstones.

I do fully back the idea of them just keeping the series going as long as they're all willing regardless of my personal opinions. Fuckin love the bastards so I'll forever watch anyway.  I check out random episodes of their podcast too and have to say I enjoy it quite a bit so I won't lose hope on whatever comes next

Kaitlin Olsen’s plastic surgery really fucks with how expressive her face used to be. I read something about how she has serious body image and self esteem issues due to an accident in her early teens so I don’t want to rag on her but it’s kinda hard to watch.

Wasn’t there a running gag in one of the esp this season that she had facial paralysis?    I think for its 15th season, it still is worthy and it’s hilarious they managed to incorporate the chess grandmaster rumors into the  latest ep

There’s just something I can’t stand so much about The Bear and it really gelled in the family drama Christmas dinner episode.    Just exhausting self-importance I sense whenever someone is conspicuously trying to make a “good” show. 

On the other hand, The Other Two S3 has been phenomenal and I highly recommend it.

Took the words right out of my mouth.  They also overcast that episode… Jamie Lee Curtis is good but adding Sarah Paulson, Bob Odenkirk, Gillian Jacobs and John Mulaney to the mix is way too much star power - completely blows out the groundedness of the show.  Plus throwing in Olivia Colman in a later episode… oof.  And I really liked Season 1.

Yeah it was a little weird in S1 that the brother was Jon Berenthal when the show seems like it’s striving for a semblance of verite in its casting.   But then EVERY guest role is filled by an A- List actor (you forgot Will Poulter in the CPH ep), it gets a bit silly.   

Also, don’t quite get starting and ending the season on the black guy’s mom health issues when he’s a pretty minor character to the whole show (not to mention giving him is own ep which didn’t do much for me, esp when they did a better version in the Olivia Colman ep).

It annoyed me in the same way Ramy annoyed me (these are mostly the white people from that show who you can tell are from Chicago, huge Wilco heads in college, then moved to NY bc that’s where important things were made) and half of the episodes of Master of None, where it’s trying to be NPR “comedy” or something.

Also - I can’t stand another show after Shameless where this guy plays a super talented Chicago man with a large family but for plot reasons always has to get in his own way.

Ahahah Aaron Paul’s acting bothers me a little more, but the episode still worked me. 

Loch Henry i wanted to like, but by the end I couldn’t tell what the point they were trying to make (if any) about True Crime.   

Mazey Day was like how I feel about 75% of Stephen King things : compelling premise, got me along for the ride, and then crash into a lame 3rd act.

Joan is Awful though was the BM I love.   I enjoyed the other two as well

Yeah the Poulter bit didn’t bother me as much since it told me something about the character- young chef but he has some gravitas.

And Berenthal worked for me in S1 since he was used pretty sparingly and he was so central to the season’s story - this Christmas episode could have worked better intercutting with something else, like the main present day story.  But they wanted to make a fancy hour long bottle episode.  The show seems to keep referencing Ordinary People, which I thought showed that less is more with flashbacks to deceased brothers.

Haha and her character came out of nowhere.  The scene where she remembers what the name of his restaurant was going to be was so on the nose.  Agree Carm’s character isn’t super likeable this season.

Richie’s light bulb moment- all of a sudden understanding/getting passionate about service felt way too quick.  I appreciated what they were going for with the Tangerine Dream sequence in terms of showing the stakes of operating in a 3-star restaurant but it all felt pretty smug.

Like you mentioned the pacing and balance of the stories this season is odd.

"Muscles and mayhem"
the doco series about American gladiators was ok. You probably need some interest in the original show to get anything out of it you wouldn't get out of a thousand other similar doco series. Not overly long (I watched it in two chunks). Was a little worried at first it's just going to be some people sucking their own dicks for four hours but it's mostly not like that really.

Plan to check it out tonight

I watched the show a ton as a kid and always thought something was up with those gladiators...a lot of them went after people really fucking hard.  I always liked that shooting tennis ball obstacle thing the most.  I think I stopped watching because of ninja turtles becoming a thing.  Being a kid in the 80s I had no idea about roid-rage so I expect that is what it's going to go into.

There’s a show where Robert Downey Jr on MAX is making his classic car collection eco friendly that is interesting especially in context of seeing a rich celebrity put his money where his mouth is and be more responsible.    It’s not a groundbreaking show by any means, but it’s an interesting process and shows he is doing more than just being purely performative about his commitment.

Buried it in another post, but wanted to strongly recommend The Other Two on Max.   

Series finale was today - three tight seasons, very funny.  Basic premise is about the older siblings of a Justin Bieber type who has just blown up fame-wise.

Never watched Hunter, but I don't know if I would say the Banshee was "such a good show", but it was definitely fun and I couldn't take my eyes off of it. That and Strike Back. Pretty campy 80s ish style action. If you like Bruce Lee though, then Warrior is actually pretty legit.

I thought S2 and S3 had amazing action set pieces in almost every episode.   It’s not a great show like a Sopranos - but it knew what it was and excelled at that I thought.  Never thought Antony Starr would do much after, he never showed he had Homelander chops in it

Buried it in another post, but wanted to strongly recommend The Other Two on Max.

Also, Southside on Max is another great one
I jammed through this this past weekend. I liked it and thought that season 3 was the best of them all. What is the production history for this? I'm assuming it was somewhat troubled? They wrote the Covid disruption into the storyline so I figure that had to knock them off track but was there meant to be more seasons? The finale felt weirdly compressed even if the last few episodes were super sized.

They said it was always intended to be the ending, but there are reports that the show runners were assholes or something that necessitated an internal investigation

Its good. Fukn stressful.


Only tiny tiny gripe (that I'm willing to even cop as my own fault/user error) is it's one of those shows where the dialogue is really quiet and then something like a car drives past or the backing music kicks in and completely blows out the tv speakers. (And yes I've tried changing all the settings)

Very glad I didn’t watch any ads for it bc it was fun trying to figure what the show was going to be.   Even after these two eps, don’t know what’s coming next but I’m pumped.

My partner and I binged Yellowjackets (on Paramount+ through Amazon Prime). Brutal depiction of what I imagine it would be like to survive a plane crash and have to face the dangers of the forest. Very graphic in terms of violence and well written for the most part. Cast has a few notable names, but Christina Ricci and Juliette Lewis are standout in this.

Nah it's all effectively shut down outside of Reality. Of course Reality is a huge piece of the pie and for the most part the big media companies (who all own the streaming services) have been able to coast along with they had already completed. My buddy works in post and I've hung out with him once this Summer because he is cranking through Reality and Documentary content.

Here's what was going on prior to SAG AFTRA joining the strike. Now it's mostly all just shut down:

You can shoot projects for companies that aren’t represented by the AMPTP.   For example. A24 isn’t represented by them, so they can still shoot and will likely have received a waiver from the unions to do whatever they need to do, same with low budget/actual indie films.   

No studio is going to buy scab screenplays for one main reason: they will not even look at a script that isn’t submitted by an agent, manager, entertainment lawyer and no one worth their salt is going to jeopardize their career to do that.   The strike won’t last long enough to go through the development process anyway, so they’d dump it when a deal was made

The strike is kinda sick because it seems as though streaming services are adding more deep cuts and classics to pad out the offerings. Let’s be honest, 98% of series have somewhere between a few episodes to a couple seasons worth of good material. There’s too much crap being made trying too hard to build up anticipation for another season or spin-off or tie-in or whatever.

I haven't finished it yet but the tone is pretty much identical to The Boys. It is also technically an adaptation of the 7th story arc in the comic so it isn't strictly speaking a spin-off. No spoilers as I read the comic as it came out so it's been a while but I have the feeling that a few of these characters get merged into the main storyline.

The music, the randomness, the feels...pretty much unmatched some times. I don't know if they are going to continue making episodes.  Thank you for mentioning this!

@Jehoshaphat Augustus I’m not all that far into it yet- just up to where he’s traveled upstate for the funeral, but I really like the vignette structure and the surrealism. It reminds me of the show Atlanta.
Also after having lived in NYC for over 20 years it's cool to see a program actually get so many of the uniquely/idiosyncratically weird little New York things so dead on.
••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••
Also: the new season of 30 Coins recently dropped on HBOMax and I really enjoy it. I’ve got to say though that the actor who plays Paco desperately needs some professional training. The dude is a terrible physical actor. In the season 2 episode 1 hospital chase scene he can’t even believably look in a direction let alone move in one. I know that’s really harsh and who knows- maybe that actor has a serious equilibrium problem or something- but I was laughing my ass off during an action scene that was supposed to be suspenseful. It reminds me of that scene in 30 Rock when Alec Baldwin doesn’t know how to move on camera and he becomes so stiff and awkward that his solution is to hold a coffee mug in each hand.
Regardless I’m stoked the show back.

I been watching this show called alone they have to live out in the woods, they get a bow and arrow and knives and shit and they have to eat rats and bunnies to survive. One bloke kills a moose and he eats fuck out of that thing he even eats it’s hooves

One of them burns their shelter down by mistake and another one loses his lighter so no fire but he goes home when that happens. It’s decent

I’ve got like 2 shows I watch for myself, and Alone is one of them. Love that shit. The last season on there with the Mexican dude was bad though. Great British Baking Show is the other show…

I can’t stand that they’re releasing episodes every Friday for the bake off. Bums me out.

Wheel of time season 2 was way better than season 1.

Goosebumps on Disney+ is good for what it is. My kid and I are watching it every Friday.

Gen V was also great.

I’m getting kind of sick of streaming. I pay so much for all of this crap and I feel like I don’t have time to watch any of it. Prime is a necessity and it sucks. Netflix keeps going up. I’ve got the Disney bundled with live hulu for sports and that shits like $90 a month now. Paramount, peacock. I get hbo from my internet provider, but I feel like I’m paying more than I ever did having cable.

There is no way any streaming service is worth $90 a month. My memory has turned to mush as far as remembering shows/years these days but I'm pretty sure it would be cheaper for me to just buy the couple shows and movies I liked on DVD (altho they prob don't even make them anymore) than having endless menus of shit I'd never even watch/ put on for ten mins, decide they suck and switch off

If you’re paying 90/mo for Hulu Disney and ESPN, I’d question if you’re getting the bundle.   None of those services a la carte are 30 bucks a month unless you’re getting the tip top impractical level

Biggest gripe with Gen V is that they never let you live in the premise of it being a school show.    There are like 4 scenes total about actually going to school (not to mention about 4 different sets).   Their dorm room could have easily been an apartment building.   

Post-credits scene was kind of shrug-worthy too, though I did like the cliffhanger the show ended on
Title: Re: Movies/TV shows that don't suck on Netflix

Now I've rethought about it maybe $90 isn't that crazy.(altho I personally probably wouldn't pay for that) It's like $3 a day. Thinking back to ten years ago people would pay $3 per ep of game of thrones and Westworld etc. And I guess I bought them all on DVD so I prob payed about that too lol

ESPN+ is 11/month or 110/year…unless we’re talking prices outside the US

I’d honestly think to recommend YouTube TV for sports (it’s TV not ad-free YouTube).   I find it easier to watch soccer than on Peacock or whatever app bc you can DVR stuff

Shrinking is pretty popular, esp with the Ted Lasso crowd (similar creative teams).   I liked Platonic.   Some things can just be pleasant without being game changers. 

The issue with AI writing scripts is that they’ll have AI write a piece of shit first draft and have writers fix it, but at the expense of not having any ownership over the script so they’ll get paid peanuts to do all that work.

Completely agree about the Knick and not being able to get into the OA. I've enjoyed For All Mankind on Apple tv so far, progression from season to season is significant enough that at the end of each season I'm looking forward to where it goes from there.

Yeah secret invasion was rough and pointless.    They’ve shut down daredevil bc they realized they need to get some people with tv know how in there and if they fuck up daredevil that’s a bridge too far.   

Honestly, Invincible seems like the only real way to do a superhero type shoe.    Maybe bc I know better, but I can just feel the budget straining on even the Boys when they have to made Canada look like a South America Contra camp.    I’d almost like to see a comics-accurate animated series for the show (and maybe even Preache) like they did in thst Boys spin-off animated series.

I was sold on the premise too, but I don’t think they ever really committed fully to the espionage part as well as I would have liked.   The shapeshifting reveals didn’t make much sense and I wish it had been seeded better previously the way Hydra had kinda been.   The biggest reveal you just kinda think…well when the fuck did that happen?

I also kept thinking about why the skrulls were having such a hard time while New Asgard was getting along quite swimmingly.    Completely ignoring NA felt like a missed opportunity to comment on immigrant assimilation or something.

A “well-structured” script will do that.   The idea is to establish things subtly in your mind so that things don’t seem coincidental, but also not with a bell around its neck.   I think as you become a better movie watcher you just happen to notice these things more and more - but I do agree it wasn’t the most original thing in the world

He’s a special talent. Somehow he’s managed to play a sympathetic WW2 Nazi in Jojo Rabbit, he outshined both Mickey Rourke and Robert Downey Jr in Iron Man 2, and carried Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri with Frances McDormand. There’s nobody like him and he can fucking dance.

Because we have two poorly titled Movies/TV threads that just become catch-alls to discuss things you watch in theaters and things you watched at home - but really not even that clearly defined.

Really enjoyed The Killer. I love Michael Fassbender and Fincher made excellent use of him in this one.

My enjoyment grows with the thought of it

It felt almost intentionally like a tv show.   I don’t remember opening production cards, just went straight into the intro montage like a tv show and the obvious episodic nature of the narrative.
[close]

I liked how it was shot and the acting a lot, but the story was a bit cliche for me found myself correctly guessing the 2nd and 3rd acts all from events in the 1st act
[close]


A “well-structured” script will do that.   The idea is to establish things subtly in your mind so that things don’t seem coincidental, but also not with a bell around its neck.   I think as you become a better movie watcher you just happen to notice these things more and more - but I do agree it wasn’t the most original thing in the world


I got around to this tonight. It was engrossing enough but it felt slight. I enjoyed the performances but it felt like the least Fincheresque Fincher movie.

I guess it was sort of an homage to Le Samourai but I also wasn’t really sure if it was going for satire? Like, he’s alternately a consummate professional and also does some idiotic stuff? Or it’s a psychopathic Michael Clayton? (Hey Tilda!)

I loved the Knick.   Two perfect seasons


The only thing about this show I’m nervous about is I’m not always on board with Brit Marling/Zal Batmangli’s creative choices.   The OA was not my favorite and I couldn’t do s2 despite hearing good things…

Completely agree about the Knick and not being able to get into the OA. I've enjoyed For All Mankind on Apple tv so far, progression from season to season is significant enough that at the end of each season I'm looking forward to where it goes from there.

I haven’t been in love with FAM bc I’m not crazy about Joel Kinnaman, but I’ve stuck with it.    There are some intriguing sparks setting up in this season and I dig Toby Kebbell so it’s nice to see him in the mix



Has anyone watched the Curse yet?  Don’t want to speak too much on it yet

I've watched the first 3 episodes and am enjoying it a lot so far. Some good cringe-dark comedy Nathan Fielder type stuff but in a more dramatic sense.

I just finished The Fall Of The House Of Usher. Some of the performances were pretty incredible and some of the actors mere showed up or were perhaps miscast but the overall production was mesmerizing.
The series is a lot like the Nightmare On Elm Street movies where there’s a certain dark humor to all the creative death scenes and for me it was definitely Prospero’s.
One weird thing though- maybe I’m wrong but it looked to me like two of the cast members ( Mary McDonnell and Henry Thomas ) seem to have a significantly reduced ability to enunciate properly due to lost mobility from facelifts. It was uncomfortable to watch especially since McDonnell is so talented.

It feels like 8 episodes of a first act.   There’s so much set up without pay off yet that it’s putting on a lot of weight on that eventual end and I’m kinda reserving my judgement til I get there (atm I feel a bit listless and feel like Safdies character is just changing sides every week)…

I want it to be successful though!

Not on netflix, but still a great watch: Samurai Jack on Max. One of my favorite cartoons from my childhood that still holds its weight in regards to action, story, animation, etc. I love how the series has always touched on subjects regarding the ego, anger management, and loss, but the later seasons have really dug deep into those subjects in a more profound way.
This scene in particular has stuck with me lately: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RU24VItAmWk&pp=ygUec2FtdXJhaSBqYWNrIGNvbmZyb250cyBoaW1zZWxm

Just caught the Fargo finale tonight. I loved the whole dinner prep and meal conversation scenes. There was a lot of satisfying payoff. Jennifer Jason Leigh's Lyon Matriach character's voice was pretty annoying initially but I came around to her part way through the season. Boy I am having a hard time formulating my thoughts tonight. Clusterfuck spam. Anyway I liked it. Maybe I'll check out True Detective even though it sounds pretty from the description above.

^basically how I felt. There was a moment early on where I was a bit like oh shit there's still 40 mins left I hope they don't fuck this but it all worked good. (Spoilers) Was hoping for a bit of a better ending for the two cops but it's still all fine.


As far as true detective what I just told my old man was maybe just wait a couple weeks. (Mild spoilers) I haven't watched any of the videos but I noticed a bunch of YouTube videos with titles like woke blah blah blah and I didn't really get too much of that. The little things for me is I just really felt the whole time like it was shit I've already seen in like ten other recent shows. But if somebody hadn't seen those shows they wouldn't feel that way.
And it was kinda flat but maybe every show doesn't have to start with a banger.

And lastly which is a boomer take for me but it's weirdly crazy crispy hd which makes it feel like a daytime soap but that's just a dumb personal thing for me.

You don’t think Indira got a good ending?   Maybe more karmic retribution to rain down on her ex, but she landed on her feet.

Surprised people have reacted so strongly to True Detective after one episode.   I’m certainly interested to see what caused the people to presumably commit suicide like the elk in the intro (though I’m sure that’s a red herring).  Maybe it’s bc I found The Curse so deeply unsatisfying on a week to week basis that im comforted by a show that will at least develop at a normal pace

I guess I just picture working for the Lyons to be hell. Like great you're safe but now you're a piece of shit.

I think we're just living in times where there's way too many people trying to be some kind of twitter/YouTube whatever celeb and have to be as fast as possible to shit on anything that can be considered woke for their "fanbase"

There's a pretty ok show called the head which starts out basically the same (group of scientists in snow land mysteriously all die) which is prob worth people checking out if they like that premise but don't want to wait ten weeks. It will almost definately be completely different tho. There's a show called fortitude too which tiny bit the same but hopefully very different.

Hah I don’t disagree about the Lyons, but I saw Indira as the catalyst for her being more human towards Dot as a perhaps a positive note towards future job conditions.   

Liked Fortitude, never gave the Head a chance.   Am wary about European shows.   Just tried Berlin after so many people apparently loved Money Heist/Casa De Papel and found it to be one of the worst written shows.  30 coins had a great/preposterous first season, but let down a little by the second despite the addition of Giamatti.   Maybe it’s just Spanish shows I should be wary of

Their observations of home life whether it’s the dynamic of a family going through separation or friends sleeping over at each other’s homes are so spot on. As well as what it was like communicating with technologies of the 90’s-early 2000’s. I’m not a cinema buff but I find the cinematography to be beautiful.

it’s a very sweet show. I’ve found myself welling up at times.

From what I recall it’s always been two timelines about the same case.   S2 I don’t necessarily recall that strongly, but def in the first and the 3rd.   The connection to the native woman murder and the guy who got the tattoo is this season’s version (and whatever beef the two leads had investigating it).   Maybe rather than splitting eps in half they’ll devote a few eps

Hey I am completly out of touch with the new tv shows coming out. Too many things everywhere Last thing I started was Succession and it was 2 years ago. What is a complete banger that came out in the past 3 years ? Drama or Comedy

Thankyou !

Severance, Black Bird, Telemarketers, Life of Crime 1984-2020, Class Action Park

The last 3 are documentaries in and around my home state. While I don’t think you have to be from NJ to enjoy these docs, I think it helps.

New shows just dropped (haven’t seen yet):

Sexy Beast - Paramount+ : prequel series before Spain.   

In the Know - Peacock : new Mike Judge show about an NPR show

Masters of the Air - Apple+ : kinda considered part 3 of Band of Brothers, The Pacific.  Cary Jo Fukunaga heavily involved

Get On Your Knees - Netflix : heard amazing things about this stand up/one woman show from people who saw it live


Criminal Record - Apple + :   Good ol fashioned British police drama

Yellowstone entertained me to an extent but wouldn't actually recommend it. However, 1883 is awesome so far after a few episodes in. It's literally like Red Dead Redemption Era settlers trying to cross the country and right now at the beginning they're in Rhodes

Having seen these:


In the Know is legit one of the funniest things I’ve seen in a bit.   Some good Space Ghost Coast to Coast vibes in it


Sexy Beast seems interesting enough.    The Gal casting is pretty solid and I think Don Logan works well enough though it’s kind of a character you don’t necessarily want to know more about to preserve his menace.    Vampire Bill from True Blood is Teddy Bass and it works on a different creepy level

Season 2 took me a while, but it grew on me… i definitely had to google details here and there though…

Random but I recently noted an increase in references to penis size in TV shows and films. The Curse used the protagonists small penis as a major theme and metaphor and even showed it. Salt Burn got a kick out of its hero's sizable schlong. I wonder if there are more? Is this a more general trend? Can't remember this being made a central theme outside of maybe the odd Sex and the City episode.

Yeah I liked how brave The Curse was for really taking small penised men to task.   I can’t think of any better thing to shine a light on in society than a physical attribute that no one can do anything about.   


But I haven’t really noticed a broader thing.   I think there’s been a subtle shift in trying to make nudity more than just a think actresses have to endure, but anytime a male actor gets naked, it’s become a bigger hullabaloo.   All the Saltburn jokes are slightly recycled from Fassbender in Shame

the basic premise of the plot (British aristocrats renting out their land to weed farms) is the same.

Agreed it's great fun. When I saw the lead actor I was worried he wouldn't be up to carrying it, but he is.

Gotcha, I remember Colin Ferrell and I think Hugh Grant, but no real particulars.   Every time I do, I realize it’s RockNRolla I’m thinking of.   Plus Ray Winstone finally doing Guy Ritchie after a role in Lock, Stock didn’t work out and Vinnie Jones back in the fold.   


Also, surprised, after promising two more in the end of the movie that Guy never tried to do a tv version of RockNRolla.

And I didn't know Richard Lewis passed. Sad to hear. Especially with all the banter about putting each other in their wills. I thought his eyes looked so crazy and scary for some reason in the "from hell AA comedy set episode" though and now I feel bad.

The sad thing about the finale is apparently their original script got leaked and so they had to scrap it.   Something to do with winning the lottery.

With the benefit of hindsight, having them all go to jail for being assholes is an amazing concept.   Plus, you get the Seinfeld in OZ video they did on SNL

When I heard Richard Lewis passed, my first thought was literally "What is Larry going to do with all that money?" because I had watched the episode the day before.

It's sad he's gone, but also kind of an amazing way to go out for a comedian. I think he would have enjoyed that.

It was pretty much exactly what I expected to be. Dumb but watchable.

McGregor is extremely unlikeable, almost to the point of distraction. I read someone comment that he had the worst fake Irish accent they had ever heard, which is funny.

The overall plot is super dumb but is fine if you turn off your brain. Could have done without the weird CGI bits. Is it really easier to have someone render, light, and animate a kayak falling from a ceiling than it would be to hang a kayak and cut a rope?

I thought something similar but I guess it might also have been a bit much with a character we've never even seen before being so involved with the ending.
The last little scene/shot was cool how it had all the longest cast in it altho ted and Cheryl hadn't been in it so much for the last few seasons and kinda weird to have ted in the centre and Larry all the way to the side.

When they said Richard’s ex went to go find a gun, I thought that ep was going to end a lot differently (last season was supposed to be the last season with LD drowning in the pool, so death was always a possibility, but I’m glad they didn’t do it with Lewis’s actual death happening)
[close]
I thought something similar but I guess it might also have been a bit much with a character we've never even seen before being so involved with the ending.
The last little scene/shot was cool how it had all the longest cast in it altho ted and Cheryl hadn't been in it so much for the last few seasons and kinda weird to have ted in the centre and Larry all the way to the side.

Only missing Wanda Sykes in the ep, but maybe she wasn’t in the show percentage wise as she looms in my memory
Funny now looking it up I would have thought Richard Kind was in it most next after funkhouser (Bob Einstein rip) but he's in it even less and Vince Vaughn was actually in it more than both Richard and Wanda. But Vince Vaughn didnt have that much impact

I want to be honor bound to negotiate the services of the countries best sexual courtesan for the person I love
[close]

Terrible.

Yeah it's ugly af. The art is on point tho. I love the clothes. The sets. The scenery. I wanna go to the Northernmost point of Japan and paint it.
I wanna go to that janky butt thermometer bowl/ tape worm quarter pipe park. It's on that island. I think it for livestock tho
[close]


Tokyo Vice is another good one if you want a modern Japan series.   It just finished up after 2 seasons

I enjoyed both seasons...hope they get a season 3

Shogun, will probably go down as one of my all time favorites tv shows...soo many good film shots, sets, and costume designs.   

Both shows have the main Japanese characters for the last samurai which is kinda dope

I hope TV gets a season 3 too, but I would be surprised as it seems expensive and it feels like they wrapped it up.   However, I would def recommend the book by the real Jake Adelstein. 

Shogun creative team is apparently behind the upcoming Blade Runner 2099 show coming later this year.   They said there’s no chance for a Shogun season 2 unless someone writes a book for it.   They don’t have the time or capacity to do the amount of research needed to do more

You all sold me and I'm caught up on Shogun. I was put off by the Eurocentric aspects of the story the same way I was with The Last Samurai (I skipped it because of this and also I hate Tom Cruise) even though I know that it's based in historical fact. I guess that cuts both ways; more Western audience appeal but it still reads as a problem for some people. Despite all this, Blackthorne is just one character and they've done a great job fleshing nearly everyone else out. At episode 8, I feel like Ochiba No Kata is a little underdeveloped and seems like they have just put her in Lady Macbeth/Throne of Blood mode and let the audience fill in the rest. For eg. I wasn't entirely sure what her relationship to the old woman at the beginning of episode 8 was, although it seemed important. Still there's 2 to go and plenty of time to flesh her out. This wound up sounding more negative than I meant it to because I am really into it.

The part that makes it feel not like a “white savior” narrative is that Blackthorne isn’t necessarily driving the action.  Sure, he taught a new cannon tactic, but that just felt like one aspect of the army, not their masterstroke.  He’s more of a cypher for western eyes to understand Japanese culture and customs at that time. 


Btw, anyone think Blackthorne/Cosmo Jarvis (what a name) would make a good Wolverine?

@brycickle yeah good point about this being grounded in historical fact. I was cynically referring to the appeal for the western viewer of having a white character present in the story, but tbh this hasn't really bothered me.

I honestly think you could get away with telling this even without him.   He’s never been front and center in the advertising I see (but I always knew of the white person aspect having been shown the 80s NBC miniseries on substitute teacher days in elementary school).   

I’d highly recommend Blue-Eyed Samurai next for anyone.   The Blue Eyes do not indicate ethnicity so it’s not a white person story…as much as the main character in the Sympathizer is white

Seconding this, never played seriously. But the show is really good.
You definitely get more out of it if you are a fan with all the references but man, the game is good.

Wife and I watched when they see us, great mini series, I was in the wealthier areas of NYC when this happened.   My dad sheltered us away from sketchy places, but I didn't listen.

It's amazing how our justice system not only is flawed in every which way that its sickening. There's more and more case's similar to this beforehand and will be afterwards.
