Rebel Moon Part 1--Netflix, I sort of like it. It's not the greatest or worst. It's space opera and takes influences all over the map, sort of feels fantasy like Wheel of Time, at times like Star...
Baby Reindeer – Netflix: This limited series--yeah, watched the first two or three episodes of this last night. Pretty easy to binge. Interesting and well written.
Watched the Adam Sandler film, Spaceman on Netflix. Pretty interesting, but I'd have a hard time explaining all of it.
Thanks Mark, it was what I was thinking.
I watched a couple of comedies off the comedy channel. I'm not a huge comedy fan, but Black Sheep with Chris Farley & Spade had a few laughs. The other was Dirty Work with Norm MacDonald and Artie...
:lol I would be one of them.
Does anyone still use Norton or McAfee? I currently have Norton, and it works, but they've put so much intrusive crap on it about everytime you turn on your computer they have pop ups asking if...
You might like it more than me. It's well made, Citizen Kane was a lot better.
Mank on Netflix. I like the way it was filmed and it caught the era pretty well, but something about was missing a spark, as at times I was pretty bored with it.
John G. Trimble, who passed away the morning of April 19, 2024. He and his wife Bjo are known within the Star Trek community for writing letters to help save Star Trek back in the day, and I'm sure...
I rewatched Record Safari last night as I hadn't seen it in a while. Still pretty good tho I don't remember the main guy, Alex Rodriguez, mention any prog.
Glass Harp--s/t
Tim Hecker--Ravendeath
Kimono My House--Sparks
Rewatched Collateral off TV with Cruise and Jamie Foxx, still pretty good action, crime film.
Scarface off TV with Pachino and crew, gets a bit cheesy in some scenes and Pacino if full on macho...
Yeah, I like them a lot, very Austin sounding, altho they're from the Houston area. There sound doesn't change much, but I wouldn't expect it to.

Yeah, me too. I haven't finished it yet, but almost there. It's gone in wacky directions which I've enjoyed as its unpredictable.
With Netflix nothing is ever guaranteed. 3.5 out of 5 stars for me.
Supposed to be working on Season 2 now. I liked it a little more than you as it was above what we get with the usual SF, ie....
I saw the newer one 2022. It's done well.
Yeah, 4th episode of Fallout never played the game. I was a little iffy on episode #1 as it felt a bit campy or comic book-y, but got hooked with episode #2. Now on epi. #4. Fun so far.
All Quiet on the Western Front Netflix, actually a really good one about some German friends entering WWI. Good cinematography, framing, and story.
Echoes by Pink Floyd
Parasyte: The Grey: Season 1 Netflix--I thought maybe I could get into this series based on a manga, but in the end could not. It didn't help in that it was Korean using Korean actors, I don't know I...
Talk to Me--Kanopy, When a group of friends discover how to conjure spirits using an embalmed hand, they become hooked on the new thrill, until one of them goes too far and unleashes terrifying...
Yeah, I'm a hoarder too to a certain degree. They have recycle places in many towns for stuff like that too, just saying.

Squaring the Circle (The Story of Hipgnosis) on Netflix, In 1968, art students Storm Thorgerson and Aubrey “Po” Powell made a trippy photo collage for their musician friends Syd, David and Roger....
Reptile Netflix crime drama, it was okay but slow, about average yet had its moments.
Yeah, it was fun wasn't it? I was just going to watch some of it, but watched the whole thing too, altho I may have nodded off some in the middle.

The Pledge 2001, Kanopy, A Jack Nicholson film I missed, an adaptation of a book directed by Sean Pean. Nicholson plays a police chief beginning retirement when a little girl is murdered and he...
The Killer--Netflix, David Fincher directs the film about an assassin and his code or lack of ethics/morality. There's was some underlying themes, but overall pretty decent for such fare. 6.5 out 10...
Started watching Three-Body Problem on Netflix. It flows a lot better and quicker than the Amazon, Chinese version. The first season/book is the set up for the second, book/series. It mostly is a...
That certainly one's right with anything, and I'd have to agree, do what's right for you. But then, what would you expect someone to say that is Chinese and raised in China and still living there? ...
I ususally stay away from spoilers (not that yours is), but in the case of the Three-Body Problem I made the exception due to it being as far flung and cerebral as it is, plus I'd not read the book...
Desperate Souls, Dark City and the Legend of Midnight Cowboy on Kanopy. A doc looking back at the classic film with some of the actors etc. I enjoyed it as it's still one of my fave films.
The Darkest Hour SF movie off Prime, just seemed like a dumb SF teen action film. Pass.
The Power from 1968 off Movieland app. I missed this one from that era, but it wasn't very good either. George Hamilton played the main role and other known actors from that time. I'd always seen...
I thought she did a good job. Everybody's different. Who did you like?
Da'Vine Joy Randolph
The Holdovers
America Ferrera
Barbie
Danielle Brooks
The Color Purple
Emily Blunt
Oppenheimer
Interesting review of William Gibson's Neuromancer.

The 'Burbs--old Tom Hanks movie with an interesting cast about a family next door that's similar to The Addams family in some ways. A rec from a friend, I'd never seen it. For the most part it was...
I don't know, but you'd think one theater in town would keep pictures a bit longer. During Dec. Jan. I looked for Oppenheimer and The Holdovers to see a film then. Would have been a perfect time,...
The Last Repair Shop free on YT won an Oscar for best short doc. Once commonplace in the United States, today Los Angeles is by far the largest and one of the last American cities to provide free and...
20 Days in Mariupol--won best Oscar for documentary. Free on YT. As the Russian invasion begins, a team of Ukrainian journalists trapped in the besieged city of Mariupol struggle to continue their...
Loudest bands in History
Pretty hilarious.
The reason football fans sing ‘Sweet Caroline’ in particular stems from the song becoming a victory anthem for a Boston baseball team who played it during a match in the 1990s for a colleague who had...
Yeah, I used to watch that off PBS and really enjoyed the wackiness of it. Miranda Hart and the cast worked well together.
I'd watch this occasionally, not a huge fan, however, I think it's the last season, irrc. At any rate I bet they could extend that into a manhood series if they wanted (Old Man Sheldon?). It seems...
Was expecting some cookie monster vocals, but so far, just music. Sort of folk-y.

The Oscars went pretty broad this year, and gave Oscars for a variety of movies, which was pretty good I thought. Overall a pretty good year for film. I thought Oppenheimer would win, but held out...
I forgot about The Holdovers (snap), I liked it better than Oppenheimer.
Monica by Daniel Clowes so good so far
Poor Things--on Hulu now. Sort of twisted fairly tale. Overall I enjoyed it, but Oppenheimer for best pic over it. There are still so many Oscar nominees I've yet to see, a better year than the past...
This guy does a really good job of all the Oscar picks.

Monsters by Barry Windsor-Smith
Borrowed the first season of The Sandman from the library. I think it is a bit stoic in presentation, and a bit dry, but I read the series of comics it came from so I know about how the story goes. ...
The Last Voyage of the Demeter horror, borrowed from library. I enjoyed it.
