apuszczalowski Posted April 9, 2020 Share Posted April 9, 2020 12 hours ago, The Poojer said: Started watching the prime series with James May from Top Gear. 6 episodes of him touring Japan from north to south. Doesn't sound very interesting, but James May has a very entertaining delivery and it's a very fun watch. I think it's called "Our Man in Japan" or something like that I mentioned this a little while back when it came out Its entertaining and you can learn some stuff watching it too. Amazon has asked the Grand Tour hosts to branch off and do their own shows too. This was Mays, I hope he does some other ones too Clarkson has a show where he is filmed running a farm he recently purchased Hammond had one about giant engineering things I believe, and is working on another one with former Mythbuster Tori where they are stranded on an island together for a while. I believe they may have filmed a bunch of it recently. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

transplantbillsfan Posted April 13, 2020 Share Posted April 13, 2020 I'm actually enjoying Westworld season 3 more than I did season 2. Turned itself into a totally different series, which is why I think I'm liking it. Only watched the first couple episodes, though. Also finally started Ozark. Only 4 episodes in but really liking it. I understand the Breaking Bad comparisons, but I like the situation with Jason Bateman's character better as he stumbles into his life of crime because it's not voluntary like it was for Walter White, which makes it a bit more tragic and almost believable at the start.

Real McClappy Posted April 20, 2020 Share Posted April 20, 2020 (edited) Netflix -> The Platform Very well done twisted/gory/thriller type movie.

Right? it's just different and had me thinking about it for a couple days after. I think that alone made this movie unique to me as I've never seen anything like it. I agree the ending was not the greatest but still worth a watch as everything during and between was pretty wild to say the least. Snowpiercer on Netflix is another Action sci-fi fantasy oddball movie of Earth survivors during the 2nd ice age living on a train. This was another decent movie for these quarantine days and worth a watch if bored. This one is not nearly and gory or twisted though but has its moments for sure.

Johnny Hammersticks Posted May 25, 2020 Share Posted May 25, 2020 Watched the movie Hostiles on Netflix. Starring Christian Bale. Kind of a dark and certainly violent movie. Was pretty solid though. Civil war officer (Bale) is tasked with escorting an imprisoned Cheyenne Indian Chief who is dying back to his home land in Montana. I thought very good acting, cinematography, and storyline. Again, some very violent parts though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Upload was nowhere near as good and not even in the ballpark as funny, but it was reminiscent of that show (and Black Mirror) in some ways. It was a little melodramatic at some points but overall I liked it. I was dying laughing when his head blew up in the first episode. My wife wants funny in her TV shows, and even though she liked Breaking Bad (which she had to stop watching towards the end because she was getting stressed out) and loves Better Call Saul, she's usually watching reruns of Friends, Everybody Loves Raymond and Two and a Half Men and is happy. We both love The Good Place and still have to watch the rest of the season. We've watched the first season and a half of the show Catastrophe and both really liked it for most of the first season but started in a weird place in the 2nd season and I'm wondering now if it's just aiming for vulgarity for vulgarity's sake.

And this is why comedy is the most difficult thing to recommend to anyone. I think The Good Place is one of the funniest and smartest shows on TV. I belly laughed constantly during that show. Oscar Wilde once said "taste is indefensible." I think that's especially true for comedy. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4merper4mer Posted May 30, 2020 Share Posted May 30, 2020 I'll go ahead and recommend "Hinterland" on Netflix. It is a British police drama. Some may see it as a slower moving European Bosch. There are more differences than similarities but it is well written with a lot of tension. Not a lot of action and it's understated but the stories are very good. Give it a chance.
