Sadly, nothing can motivate me to ... go to, wait for, pay for, wait for, and then have buyer regret. Which is pretty sad, as last one viewed at theater, I think it was only ฿100 for admission, maybe even ฿80 for midday matinee. I can't think of one movie, I've rewatched, in the last 10ish yrs, that was released in those 10 yr. That's sad. OK, definitely rewatched the Matrix Trilogy, and Star Trek 1 & 2 w/Chris Pine(2013). Avatar & ST's, I think I did see in theater, as not having present TV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TooBigToFit Posted May 12, 2022 Share Posted May 12, 2022 Just found some extra stuff for Better Call Saul fans. The first one comes from AMC channel. There's some cartoons about Los Pollos Hermanos restaurant. Here's one but there are about six or more. A couple are of Kim talking about ethics and other stuff. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yer Good acting Mutt---I watched D.I Ray tonight (trying to catch up) I had put it off because I thought another Wokey type program--but it was done quite well and wasn't a bad Crime/Thriller....4 episodes, worth a look. The main actor--The Indian Lady has been around a while--- remember her way back in Bend It Like Beckham. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even showed up in the original series, with Shatner & Nimoy. Was watching 'Discovery' till this latest season started and lost interest. Did catch the episodes of recent Pike in Discovery and downloaded the new version, but didn't get around to watching yet. Guess if it's a 5 yr run, we know how that character will end, as was shown in Discovery, unless they mystically change the timeline ... yet again ????

Will be looking forward to a forum review! Well here's my review, and in my opinion, it just goes to show that you can't always go by how IMDb rates a movie! I found it to be a load of old nonsense, hard to decipher in the early part of the movie (or subsequent parts come to that), and with quite a bit of whispering and soft-spoken interchanges going on, I couldn't always follow what was being said. Not surprising as in the movie itself there were different accents, a Scots accent or three and perhaps a Welsh one somewhere in amongst it, and I'm sure I heard a British accent! And the lady riding a white horse in a couple of shots, had a great set of modern dental braces on her top set of teeth – – who'd have thought that the Vikings has such good dentists! Then there were elements in the film which invoked memories of North American Indian tribal dances, as well as some wailing and there was a Jew's harp providing some background noise. I long for the days of a good movie, but it seems they are few and far between now and the likelihood of seeing another "Bridge of Spies", "The Shawshank Redemption", "Castaway", "Tombstone", "The 12 Monkeys" and so on are long gone. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The best thing about this new Star Trek series is that the episodes, like TOS, appear to be stand alone, unlike Discovery and Picard where the story arc lasts at least a season. This should help those who have burnt out their memory by not using it due to binge watching. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was going to DL it, but here's the most popular review on imdb: Why Ruin a good character! I sat though the first 3 episodes and I couldn't I mean really couldn't watch anymore. From the very first few minutes into episode 1 and I new right away that it was going to be a flop and a big flop it was. And who is the lead Manuel Garcia-Rulfo! Really reading all of Mickey The Lincoln lawyer books gives me a picture of mickey and it's certainly not a Mexican! Matthew McConaughey too bad they couldn't get him he was pretty good in one off the movies they made of the Lincoln lawyer. I definitely don't see a season two!.

Will27 Posted May 14, 2022 Share Posted May 14, 2022 Tschugger This one looks interesting. TPB Tschugger, a dialect word for "policeman" in the Swiss canton of Wallis, tells the story of a local police precinct in the canton of Wallis. But instead of investigating missing sheep, an attempted murder keeps them on their toes. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
