First episode of Star Wars Skeleton Crew…..just ok.

 

[PlushMinus]

It was too long….I like my horror around 90 mins unless it’s great.


That said, I liked 2 better than one I think but it’s close.

For me the only way 2 is better is if the second half really picks up. so I might have to finish watching to determine that.

Daaaaaaamn Lioness Season 2, episode 1…….strong out of the gate!

 

[usiel]

New Keira Knightly spy series on Netflix is pretty good currently three episodes in.

 

[hb13xchamps]

The Lioness finale was very weak and was a pretty lame job at wrapping up the cartel storyline IMO.

Watched the first three episodes of Skelton Crew. I’m intrigued so far. First episode was slow but the 2nd and 3rd were much better. Jude Laws character is mysterious so far. Is he actually a Jedi or is he just messing with the kids?

You had me at "Keira Knightly".

I'll have to check this out. I'm a sucker for a good (and some not so good) spy series.

I’m just starting the last episode of season 2…..it’s been incredible through episode 7 IMO.

Edit: finished, I liked it and yes the Cartel “wrap up” was quick, but that was never the true enemy. The Cartel story could reopen later.

So much gun fire in this show…love the battles! The “old Soldier” dude is so awesome…

Skeleton Crew is aight so far….feels like he’s a conman, we’ll see.

Lioness season 2 was a huge letdown from season 1. Ridiculous soap opera from start to finish.

Totally disagree….I was thoroughly entertained.

I enjoyed the majority of lioness season 2, I just wasn’t a fan of the finale. I thought the episode felt rushed and Sheridan’s character felt like he was the GOAT of snipers. They didn’t lose a single character (that we know of) during an intense battle scene. Plus, they dodged an insane amount of bullets while backtracking to that random pile of rocks that was perfectly placed for all 10 of them to hide behind lol.

My guess is they use the new Cartel boss feeding them info about foreign enemies and the fallout from the end battle as the main storyline for season 3.

The indestructible Delta Force dudes were my favorite part.--pure comic relief.

“The old soldier”….that guy is my favorite but they’re all great. How about Jill Wagner all buffed up? What a transformation she made for that role.

 

[notDkristich]

28 years later. Love the audio starting at 30 seconds. Anxiety inducing

 

[CapitalsCupReality]

Ok mind blown…

The “old soldier” in Lioness….is Taylor Sheridan. And now I’m recalling his character in Yellowstone (also a cool character)…

I would recommend The Blood of Heroes for an underated post apocalyptic blood sport movie if someone is missing Mr. Hauer tonight.



Or this gem Flesh+Blood direct by Paul Verhoven and also has a barely an adult Jennifer Jason Leigh.
