Landman is phenomenal imo

Great original concept. Outstanding casting and writing

I just don’t know how long it can go at this level


Lioness has the potential to be amazing. It just pulls me out when I see some of the operators operate. It pulls me out of it. They need to be training like Keanu and even Halle Berry did for John wick
I thought season 2 of Lioness was better than season 1 . That helps going forward . Having beautiful women in it also keep me tuned in LOL....

As far as Landman goes.....well....it is pretty entertaining and probably going to get even better with the drug cartel getting involved....for Billy Bob he makes it seem like any other day at his office ! Those two women though a bit out there ...but that is OK .

Carry-On on Netflix. Solid 8 out of 10. Never saw Jason Bateman in that type of role before.
I've got that on my list -- not sure where I heard about it (probably in connection with Taron). When I looked it up, it definitely looked interesting.

Finishing 11.22.63 miniseries.....now I understand why I completely blanked on seeing it.

I think it is on the current Netflix most watched list.

Such a bummer 28 Years Later doesn't come out until June. Seems like a very late-winter type of movie.

I cannot wait for this movie. I loved both 28 Days Later and 28 Weeks Later. In fact, I just watched the horse scene in 28 Days Later since you mentioned Brian Eno in the music thread and "An Ascent" is the music playing in that scene.

Danny Boyle doesn't get the love of a Christopher Nolan or Dennis Villeneuve(sp?) or guys like Ridley Scott, James Cameron, Tim Burton, Quentin Tarrantino, etc., but you could put his films up there with any of the greats.

Boyle is one of my favorite directors. I really like a lot of his films: 28 Days Later, Shallow Grave, Trainspotting, Sunshine, Slumdog, 127 Hours, Yesterday, etc.

He does have a unique style imo and adds his own flair to movies for lack of a better description. His use of color, dream sequences, camera angles, inclusion of pop culture, etc. I've always said that Danny Boyle can make any movie better.
