TomTao Posted September 14, 2013 Share Posted September 14, 2013 I watched GI Joe, Rise of the Cobra last night on dvd, not too bad, less action than I was expecting, lots of gadgets and some good special effects. I will give it 7/10. I might have a look at that one in that case. I have put it off expecting a dud Sorry, I thought u meant the second one GI Joe retaliation.... I did see Rise of the Cobra a while back. I watched Retaliation tonight, alot more action than Rise of the Cobra, lots more shooting and things being blown up, great for the action junkie, less gadgets and plenty of ninja sword play.

guzzi850m2 Posted September 16, 2013 Share Posted September 16, 2013 I been watching Justified seasons 1-2-3 for the last week or so. Still have season 4 to watch. Love it. Just downloaded Defiance season 1, looks promising if you are into alien stuff which I am (sometimes, lol). Hope House of Cards season 2 will be made soon, season 1 was awesome. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

House of cards season one was terrific. I watched that over a 2 day marathon. Likewise, hope season 2 is just as good 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baboy Posted September 17, 2013 Share Posted September 17, 2013 Suits , easy watching & enjoyable. Ray Donovan, great show when will he knock off the old man? James Woods coming in can only make it better. Americans, still deciding if this will be as good as it gets. Interesting plot but something missing. Rogue, pretty ordinary so far. Unforgettable. Like this show. Just started watching The Wire again, IMO the best made for TV mini series yet. How are they going to keep Homeland as good as it was?? Great thread thanks for suggestions. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrantSmith Posted September 17, 2013 Share Posted September 17, 2013 Latest episode of Ray Donovan! Didn't see that coming! Season finale next week... Not so sure I want to see Micky get knocked off anymore hahaha... Anger Management has crept back under the radar as well... Always good for a laugh... Just landed "Red Obsession" really looking forward to this, has been the talk of the Wine World for quite sometime... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FiftyTwo Posted September 17, 2013 Share Posted September 17, 2013 (edited) New season 4 of Boardwalk Empire started last week.

Always lots of action...high body count...the hero saving the woman (well, not always)...A 7.5/10 from me. Season 2 is better than season 1 IMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrantSmith Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 So Boardwalk Empire took a new twist... Could be interesting... Could be more of the same... Burn Notice has seemingly finished for ever now, thought it was just a summer break but they threw in the finale last Thursday... Bit of a tear jerker... Shame it's all done and dusted... Was one of my favorites... Also picked up a new series called Sleepy Hollow.. Haven't watched it yet, so we'll see what the fuss is about... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will27 Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 True is running Carnivale at the minute and I'd forgotten how good it is/was. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0319969/?ref_=fn_al_tt_1 Probably due to the subject matter, it flew under the radar a bit but it's superb. Another quality drama from HBO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good versus evil, heaven and hell etc. Following a carnival around in 1930's with freaks etc won't be everyone's cup of tea I guess. I just thought it was different. I really enjoyed it although it won't be for everyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BookMan Posted September 18, 2013 Author Share Posted September 18, 2013 (edited) A small bit of trivia relating to some shows that have been mentioned recently. Dean Norris, who plays Hank Schrader in Breaking Bad, also plays a lead role as Big Jim Rennie in Under The Dome Ray Donovan. Liev Schreiber who plays Ray Donovan also starred in the Larry David movie Clear History (as a Chechen) BTW. I am giving Clear History a 5.5/10. I am a big fan of Larry David and I love his Curb Your Enthusiasm series but Clear History didn't quite work. It did have some laughs, and had a good cast of known stars, but it seemed more like something Larry popped out because he doesn't want to make anymore Curb Your Enthusiasm episodes. I got a sense that the movie could even be a lead in to a Clear History series, much like Curb Your Enthusiasm.

BookMan Posted September 18, 2013 Author Share Posted September 18, 2013 Please Like Me. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2155025/ A quirky 6 episode Australian made and based comedy with Josh Thomas writing and starring. This one has some genuinely original and hilarious humour using Thomas's unique view of the world. IMO season 2 can only get better as it finds its slot and rhythm.

GrantSmith Posted September 19, 2013 Share Posted September 19, 2013 This is the End: Ummm.... well... yeah it's a bit of a stoner flick... All the actors play themselves... Emma Watson speaks in a British accent (thank you Lord!) Overall it's a bit of a piss take but a combination of Superbad, Pineapple Express and any other Seth Rogan film.. Watched it last night because I couldn't sleep, I'd give it a 5/10... It's got its funny moments but overall not worth the re-watch... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
