OT: TV & Movie Thread: Part II

[will1066]

No. Not yet

Give it a go. Alan Ritchson (Reacher) is a charismatic beast.

Just watched A Quiet Place and A Quiet Place II - pleasantly surprised after not expecting much. They were really both pretty good.

The fact that it had minimal dialogue and most of it was through emoting makes it more appreciable (first one especially).

----------

I blazed through the 3 seasons (so far) of Emily In Paris and im not ashamed of it.

Watching Ep 1 now. I liked Ritchson in Titans....

He can also play cerebral for a big man. I don't know much about the Reacher universe, but I enjoyed him playing the character. In fact, I've never seen the Cruise movies.

That's what I couldn't remember.....I knew there was something familiar about the title....I did see the movies -- thought they were excellent.

I also like the actor who plays the "nerdy" character....he was excellent on Dark Matter.

Finished Reacher series. It was very entertaining.

Glad you enjoyed it.

Does anyone know the status of the following shows....Hightown -City On A Hill-Mayor of Kingston which is one I really liked ....and Peaky Blinders & Snowfall ? Will there be one more season from them ?

FYI -- Season 2 of Mayor of Kingstown begins airing tomorrow.

Banshees of Inisherin is a must watch imo. So sharply funny, and amazing performances by Farrell, Gleeson and Keoghan.

 

[IceColdOx]

I think it's the eighth time I've watched Letterkenny all the way through. It's not a complaint.

Funny, I was just thinking of the show Banshee a few hours ago.

I've seen it....Excellent show!!!

 

[kovazub94]

That's disappointing....now I have to change my New Year's weekend watching.

Decided to still give Jack Ryan s3 a go and with one episode left I gotta say that with lower expectations it wasn’t bad. Ryan is definitely entering 007 territory but this transformation was happening in the books too so around s3 it’s kind of expected.

What’s also interesting is interplay with the current real Russian “affairs” in Ukraine and some on point insights into Russian mentality when it comes to valuing personal live or its quality vs glory of the nation, no matter the costs.

Give it a go.

Job and Sugar were a pair for the ages.

I was watching a Woody Allen film and Keaton's character made a negative comment about masturbation. Woody's character replied "Hey! Don't talk about it that way. It's sex with someone I love".

I think these shows are underrated:

The Get Down
Freaks and Geeks
Bunheads
Firefly
My So-Called Life
Undeclared
Better Off Ted

Freaks and Geeks could have been like, top-10 all time.. Shame it only lasted a single season.

 

[Mandar]

Is it bad that I enjoy watching the original "Charmed" series.....yeah, witches and stuff....but its quite nice visually.

 

[haohmaru]

Totally agree about Firefly.

Firefly / Serenity - man, what could have been.

Speaking of old(er) Sci FI: I put Battlestar Galactica (2003) up against any sci fi on TV ever.

I liked the original with Lorne Greene. Didn't care for the others.

My wife and I are on episode 160 of 170 of The Vampire Diaries. Good looking cast all around, and I’m a sucker for vampires and witches and shit. We’ll probably end up watching the spin-off Originals.

We’re also about to start the final season of Servant on Apple TV which has been supremely good so far. And then we’ll start The Last of Us.

 

[NYR94]

Episode 1 of The Last of Us was pretty good. I love the game so I was happy to see it off to a good start.

 

[Miamipuck]

Job and Sugar were a pair for the ages.

Funny hardly anyone has seen the show and yet everyone I get to watch it, loves it.

I still remember watching the first episode 10 years ago, and thinking this is good and then episode 3 was freaking awesome, and it got crazier/better after that.

 

[Miamipuck]

I know you guys have mentioned some well regarded one and done tv shows like Freaks and Geeks and Firefly. I have seen Firefly and loved it.

Anyway, check out Terriers, it may be the best of the one and done bunch. It really was fantastic.
