I got it from TGx. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt5537002/ Yeah. It was excellent. I didn't think I was particularly interested in the topic per se, but turns out it is a classic must see movie. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He degenerated into unfunny anti-conservative political digs, Colbert Lite. He did well to leave. Now he's coming back in to cash in on Trump.

Ignore all the “woke“ complaints in the 2023 thread. It's a typical sci-fi movie in the old way like pre-marvel ones. Watched that last, quite enjoyable. Agree, ignore the woke silliness, as it is the future, and bigotry can't last forever 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yellowtail Posted January 27 Share Posted January 27 In the last couple weeks, I've seen: "Elevator Game" I think a low budget US "supernatural horror", I thought it was very bad. "Chinatown ChaCha" Thai action-adventure comedy. Not great but okay. "The Elite of the Devils" Thai horror-nihilism movie, look like there will be a sequel, I thought it was bad. "Next Goal Wins" Sport-comedy apparently based on a true story. I thought it was entertaining. "The Beekeeper" Action-thriller with a bit of comedy. Wife loved it, I enjoyed it, Jason Statham saving the world, how bad could it be? "The Cursed" Thai horror movie, I thought it was very bad. "The Three Musketeers-Pert II: Milady" French action picture, pretty good, I did realize it was part two, and I'd like to see part one. "Oppenheimer" US thriller, this was a good picture. Rereleased in Thailand, I assume because of the best picture nomination. I saw it in "IMAX" and really enjoyed it. "Miller's Girl" US Thriller-sort of. Some annoying things but pretty good. "Anyone But You" US romantic-comedy. This could have been a good picture, but too ridiculous too many times. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since the kid left for school, we don't really watch anything together at home, but she likes the movies and since we got the annual passes, she wants to go all the time. Once in a while I'll watch a movie while she shops. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will27 Posted January 27 Share Posted January 27 A true crime series offering viewers a first-hand account of dangerous criminal investigations from those closest to the action – the undercover agents themselves. Undercover agents are on the front lines; often risking their lives to gather evidence that may help take criminals off the streets. Each episode includes surveillance video and audio recordings from actual investigations to reveal the critical moments that could make or break a case – or an agent’s life. Living in secrecy and often unrecognized beyond their tightest circles, these agents rarely get to tell their stories, until now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yellowtail Posted January 27 Share Posted January 27 Saw "Blue Giant" today with the wife and kid and loved it. Japanese animated music drama. Unfortunately, it was the Thai dubbed version. Going to see it again tomorrow in the original Japanese with English and Thai subtitles. Generally, not a fan of animated stuff, but I liked this.

BenStark Posted January 28 Share Posted January 28 I consider downloading a movie every now and then, and watch them using an external SSD connected to the USB of my LG smart TV/ Since I'm not an English native, I prefer subtitles. Found that most of the movies available for download are MP4 without subtitles. Which software you use to add the subtitles to the MP4 file please?

Jingthing Posted January 28 Share Posted January 28 (edited) Excellent and very moving movie reflecting the lives (and deaths) of so many. Works well emotionally and as a story regardless of your political views on global south to north migration.

Older ones are predominantly mp4's. I use kodi to get subtitles and play the video. The two addons that download the subtitles are addic7ed (tv only) and a4ksubtitled(tv and movies). I download videos to my NAS and this works good in that scenario. If you're streaming, I don't know. There should be something in the streaming service that will download them for you. I even wrote a script to delete the embedded subtitles so I could download the one i wanted. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I prefer older movies over today's crap, so most of them are MP4. Google told me the solution in the meantime, which is just to add the subtitle to the same folder, and enable subtitles in the settings of the TV. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
