We don’t seem to watch many movies these days, it’s easier for me to watch an episode or two of a good series than sit for 2.5 hours on a movie. Even if it was a bit cliched, the production, casting, score and effects applied in 3 episodes of the continental was a prime example, given the choice of that or the new MI time cruise offering? I'm the same. I watch mainly crime drama series. I only watch a movie if I haven't got anything better to watch. IMHO movies rely too much on special effects these days as opposed to good plots and good acting. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikebell Posted October 26, 2023 Share Posted October 26, 2023 'Wilderness' - excellent script/plot/twists right up to the last 2 minutes; then I got lost? I think they were laying the ground for a series 2. I would be grateful for any help about the ending. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xylophone Posted October 26, 2023 Share Posted October 26, 2023 I saw a Doco on BBC iPlayer of Fleetwood Mac, and knew I just had to watch it because they are my favourite group of all time. So as soon as I had finished that I got online and managed to watch, IMO, one of the greatest live shows ever, which was performed in 1997 in LA and also featured the University of Southern California's Trojan Marching Band performing with them to Tusk, not a particularly brilliant song in its own right, but with the marching band included, it was fantastic. Needless to say I spent the rest of the evening listening to the whole album – – simply brilliant and put me in a great mood for the day to come. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think FM have a special place in everyones heart, before we had a car stereo, we had some kind of mono brick cassette player that my mum would balance on her lap on family holidays, That would "blast" out Gold Dust Woman until the batteries ran out.. but have you ever heard Buckingham Nicks album? and then Peter Green's In The Skies. All good stuff. Im currently watching Impuros or Impure .. A Brazilian drama, guy gets released from prison, the same day he discovers that his brother is working for a gang, he takes the money his brother is to deliver to the police to return to the gang. In the meantime the police kill his brother, and it continues. Very basic production in similar vein as earlier seasons of the El Marginal. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was called, "Get Out"........very good acting, unusual plot and good ending. If you haven't seen it, then give it a go as it is currently on BBCiPlayer I watched Get Out last night, yes, very good acting, unusual plot and good ending. Thanks! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LosLobo Posted October 27, 2023 Share Posted October 27, 2023 I just finished watching episode 4 of 'Lessons in Chemistry', which dropped today. It just keeps getting better, what a delight. No wonder, the episode is scoring 9.3/10 on IMDb. Thanks again to @bamnutsak. Lessons in Chemistry (TV Series 2023– ) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I tried to download it after @Will27 mentioned it earlier in this topic, but I had a couple of problems and forgot about it.

Jingthing Posted October 28, 2023 Share Posted October 28, 2023 A not famous long time working comedian that I hadn't heard of before and neither have you. But he had me laughing out loud and isn't that the point of comedians? Weirdly I still get why he hasn't hit it big and likely never will. I can't put my finger on exactly why though.

xylophone Posted October 28, 2023 Share Posted October 28, 2023 Just watched a movie called; "The Man in The Glass Booth" and it was very heavy going despite a standout performance by Maximillian Schell. Hard to fathom at first and gets harder to do after the halfway mark, but although the ending is not clear cut, one gets the gist of it at the end and it is intriguing to say the least.

delgarcon Posted October 29, 2023 Share Posted October 29, 2023 I just finished watching "The Little Drummer Girl", a 6 part mini series on the BBC i Player. It's a good adaptation of John Le Carre's espionage novel and will keep you up for 2 or 3 nights. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

recom273 Posted October 30, 2023 Share Posted October 30, 2023 (edited) Last night was movie night, No One Will Save You .. alien invasion movie, dialogue free - not really revolutionary, but interesting enough to hold our attention for 90 mins.

champers Posted October 30, 2023 Share Posted October 30, 2023 Went to see Killers of The Flower Moon at my fave cinema last week. 3 hours and 20 minutes long. Too much for me but it did get better as time went on ... and on ... and on. De Niro on top form, Di Caprio less so. The star is the story which was a new one for me. I see there is something of a hoo-ha about some cinemas having an interval during the film. I think it would benefit from a timely break, though I don't imagine an usherette will march down the aisle with a tray full of strawberry mivis and kioras. Shame.
