TV Movie Thread Part Iii

  • We sincerely apologize for the extended downtime. Our hosting provider, XenForo Cloud, encountered a major issue with their backup system, which unfortunately resulted in the loss of some critical data from the past year.

    What This Means for You:

    • If you created an account after March 2024, it no longer exists. You will need to sign up again to access the forum.
    • If you registered before March 2024 but changed your email, username, or password in the past year, those changes were lost. You’ll need to update your account details manually once you're logged in.
    • Threads and posts created within the last year have been restored.

    Our team is working with Xenforo Cloud to recover data using backups, sitemaps, and other available resources. We know this is frustrating, and we deeply regret the impact on our community. We are taking steps with Xenforo Cloud to ensure this never happens again. This is work in progress. Thank you for your patience and support as we work through this.

I didn't check out the reviews, but like I said, I was going to watch for DeNiro and Plemons.

IMDB has a very generous average score of 7 out of 10. Maybe Netflix paid a troll farm for good reviews. I'd give it like 5.5.

Rotten Tomatoes was 54% (Rating based on positive scores, so basically 1 out of 2 reviews were positive). That's not good, but still better than the 17% Hunting Party. Now that is truly awful.

Fwiw, I hated s2 of the Night Agent. Much worse than s1. Speaking of reviews, just for S&G, I pulled up this:

Reviews for "The Night Agent" season 2 are generally negative, with many critics stating that it falls short of the first season's quality, citing a disjointed plot, weaker character development, questionable logic, and a slower pace, despite still delivering some thrills and action; some also highlight issues with the female characters being poorly written and the overall story feeling less believable compared to season 1
Thanks for the warning..... I was just getting ready to rewatch the pilot episode of Night Agent.

By the way....got back to Silo.....Solo is a hoot!!!!
 
Finally watched A Real Pain, heartfelt movie. I know Culkin is getting all the accolades, but Eisenberg was really impressive too.
 
Just finished Shorsey season 3. Best one so far, looking forward to starting season 4. Also, absolutely awesome that episode 6 opened with Deafheaven. One of my favorite bands. And they made a cool Dan Girardi reference.

Finish Dune Prophecy. That was really good too. Looking forward to season 2 of that.

Won best supporting actor. Guy Pearce was in the category with him for The Brutalist. Robert Downey Jr presented since he won last year for Oppenheimer. I thought it was cool since RDJ and Pearce worked together on Iron Man 3. Then, Pearce and Adrien Brody on The Brutalist. Cillian Murphy, last year's best actor for Oppenheimer with RDJ, presented best actor, which Adrien Brody won, and they worked together on Peaky Blinders.


If you liked the first one, the sequel is coming to Prime on May 1st.
Love Anna Kendrick. She's so down to earth off camera.

This blows my mind. The movie is not Oscar worthy by any means

Definitely milked the hype train as it got bigger and bigger winning at all the major awards shows and festivals. I liked it as a little compact indie movie, hilariously funny at times, but agree.
 
Anyone watched the new Daredevil episodes? Thoughts?

I don't have Disney+ anymore but might get it for a month to watch this since Blu Ray is now a dinosaur.

Which, btw, has me stocking up on blu rays because Disney is starting to "vault" shit again which is complete bullshit. I mean, they are going to try to make money by making you buy movies that you can't stream but I'm so tired of Disney's nonsense (particularly after going there for 4 days) that I'm just going to buy old crap and watch it that way
