No idea if it's any good yet but I will soon! Downloaded the season, watched 1/2 of ep 1 ......... woke beyond all reason, they've crammed in every race except Aboriginals, as 'top scientists', and they all live happily together in London. Chinese, African S. American Indian to name just a few. No requirement for any acting ability at all. Edited March 22 by BritManToo 1 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PS. I also fell in love, all over again, with Sean Young. If you "love" Sean Young, Have you watched No Way Out? Well worth a watch. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0093640/ 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weird movie. Jake Gyenhaal and Conor McGrogor are great and the fight scenes exciting but the female actors are all terrible. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post bamnutsak Posted March 23 Popular Post Share Posted March 23 23 hours ago, Pouatchee said: not knowing if anyone discussed this -- i started to watch "3 Body Problem" and it looks like a great story. unfortunately most of it is in chinese with sparse english here and there. really looking forward to the subtitled version I'm watching this on Netflix, which offers an English-language subtitle option. I can't imagine watching it without subtitles. I did read the first book in the series. The thirty-ep Chinese TV version gets mixed reviews, although it is exactly like the book. So far I'm liking this telling of a complex, and quite frightening, arc which starts with the oft-quoted Fermi Paradox. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of the most annoying/irritating TV series I've ever watched. The main character is a spineless jellyfish and all the other actors are equally annoying. I did watch to the end (only 4 episodes) in the hope someone (preferably all) was going to get blown away. 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure the original was better but I'll give this one a look anyway. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt3359350/ Totally agree, the original was much better -- more realistic. Getting stabbed in the gut and going on to fight many brawls in the space of a month (timeline not obvious). I get a simple hernia surgery and i had a hellavatime. A while ago they also had roadhouse 2 with dalton's son as the bouncer Not that great Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I watched the original and found everything about it cheesy... However, i did not quite say i did not like the new one just thought the original was better.

Popular Post xylophone Posted March 24 Popular Post Share Posted March 24 I have just finished the series, "The Gentlemen" and I thought it was okay although IMO it got bogged down towards the end with too many subplots, some of which I couldn't fathom! Shame really because it started off well enough. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xylophone Posted March 25 Share Posted March 25 For the folks who like docos I came across a hidden gem in the BBC iPlayer library called, "How the Wild West was Won" by Ray Mears and thought it was great.......the true story of the migration west, the cattle trails, the Donner Party and the demise of the Buffalo and the cowboy. Also mentioned were the native Indians and the intro of the railways..............and much more. Fascinating, but hurry if you want to watch it as it is only available for 24 days. I can highly recommend it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
