I have heard good things about "The Black Mirror" from a whole bunch of sources; I am going to check that out as well. Thanks for all the recommendations. If that show clicks for you, you will fly through the whole thing. I watched the full two seasons in about a week. Could not turn it off.

shrader Posted February 2, 2019 Share Posted February 2, 2019 The wife and I started Making a Murderer this week. We are about 4 episodes in and it’s truly amazing just how stupid these people are. If this is “slightly below average” IQ is, I do t even want to know what the truly stupid looks like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just don't even know what to say about it. Thanks for your comment here! It inspired me to watch the documentary last night, after having watched the first episode of "Stranger Things". I think we need an entire thread for Abducted in Plain Sight. What a bizarre and fascinating story, made all the more riveting by the knowledge that the whole thing is true and not fiction. In fact, you could't tell the same story as a fictional film; no one would believe what's happening. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Problem is whether they will revive the Netflix shows because of their content/ratings. Theres been talk that Disney doesnt want the R rating with the violence of the Marvel shows, although theres been other talks that they may be open to including more adult content to the service. I believe they have a Scarlett Witch show, along with a Loki one in the works along with a 3rd. A heard there will be a Black Widow movie as part of the next phase of the Marvel universe too. 12 hours ago, KD in CA said: AFAIC they canceled the show. They did the last season without him, killing him off and I thought they did it to give them one season to close out the show although I could be wrong and they are going to continue more seasons without him.

I agree, I think you call it something different and have sections for Disney and Marvel, and whatever else they will have. I did just read today that Bob Iger from Disney came out and said they have big plans for Deadpool and other R Rated Marvel films which they will be carefully branding to not confuse them with the Disney brand. In other words, they wont slap a Disney label or logo on Deadpool movies so those living under rocks wont think it's a sequel to Frozen.........

The label for Deadpool is pretty clear and it's "Marvel". Whether or not they figure out how to role that and X-Men into the same world, they clearly fall into that loose classification. If they netflix shows can exist along with all of the branches of the Avengers, so can the style of Deadpool. I wonder if ultimately they do keep it separate but then label it as "Marvel: Avengers" vs. "Marvel: X-Men". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was referring to labeling on their product, not having the Disney name or logo on the advertisement/credits or on the bluray packaging. Also not using the Disney name for it And actually the talk know is possibly integrating X-Men And deadpool into the Marvel universe stuff.

Johnny Hammersticks Posted February 7, 2019 Share Posted February 7, 2019 “F is For Family” is a great Netflix animated series starring the voice of Bill Burr. It’s like Family Guy on Steroids.

It was a collaboration between Eugene and his son, who is also his son on the show. His actual daughter is also on the show, she is the girl who works the restaurant. I played golf with Eugene a bunch of years ago, and I was constantly waiting for him to say something funny, as I find him hilarious a lot of times. He was a very good guy and kidded around with us but never funny, as a lot of these guys aren't in their normal lives. Decent golfer but I wanted him to be hilarious.
