Society the of Snow about the rugby team crashes on a glacier in the Andes. Netflix

Yeah, I used to read them when I was a kid at the barbers too. He had a bunch of them. They stopped doing that a long time ago, tho I still think it would be cool if they did. Anymore if I can...

Just thought I'd ask. Some shops (at least the one here) wants a buck or so. Granted if you dropped a lotta dough there he might give you a free one. I seen others do the same. I've said this...

I guess I'm down for Q this season, tho I can't believe Maria had such a hard time picking the third person to eat pizza. Ya'll want to chip in a little money so Liz can do a poop? I can't imagine...

I didn't go to the shop. Did you have to pay for your comics? I have a hard time keeping up with floppies (too expensive). The last thing I read was Monsters by Barry Windsor-Smith which I though...

I haven't seen that one all the way thru, I'll look for it when streaming. Thanks.

But they've also "supposedly" had a downturn with their stock/company. This seems to be guiding force with most of companies today. As you said, greed.

Listened to Bill Bruford's first two albums, Feels Good to Me, with Allan Holdsworth.

Bendian Gautheir Liebig Stinson's Bone Structure--sort of improvised/exploratory music

I used to have The Commitments on vhs. I don't know if I still do. I should try and look for it. I've been wanting to watch Borat here lately, but don't have a copy. You used to find this all...

I saw a really fun movie last night on Netflix called Apollo 10 1/2: A Space Age Childhood by Richard Linklater. It takes place in Houston around that date, and it deals with a young boy's fantasy...

Marcel the Shell with Shoes On--recommended by a friend. Animated with real life too. Sorty of cutsey, but lost my interest along the way. I found the voice of Marcel hard to hear. Ymmv. Netflix
...

Warlord, okay I'll see if I can find it. Thanks.

The Lion in Winter--historical drama, I wasn't familar with the English history, but it's about which of his three sons the king will pick for the throne whenever he dies among other family drama....

Beau Geste 1955 a remake. They say the second version from 1939 is the best version, but I still found it interesting. Telly Savalas was a good antagonist.

Blast of Silence low budget crime film...

Arrowhead Grit TV, western with Charlton Heston playing, Ed Bannon, an army scout who helps the army move the Apache to a Florida reservation. The character "Ed Bannon" is partially based on Al...

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.

862956236

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 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?
