OT: Movies/TV Shows

More horror than Sci fi but The Descent is a damn good flick that nobody seems to have seen for some reason.

Try your best to watch the UK version instead of the US version for a small but imo key editing difference at the end.

Two that came to mind for me were Sunshine, directed by Danny Boyle (great movie) and Moon, starring Sam Rockwell (very good).

Sunshine had so much going for it but ultimately disappointing imo. Moon is great.

How are they? Cube is the only one I've seen on the list. Might watch Endless this weekend since it's leaving Netflix soon.

Endless was a bit slow for me. LDR I'd say is worth a watch.

Was there really any point of making another movie after Miller's Crossing?

Sunshine had a lot going for it. Interesting premise, great director & cast. And it was really good, up until

Spoiler: Spoilers

it turned into a creepy space slasher flick. There was enough tension and drama in the story already without going down the well-worn “there’s a monster on the ship” storyline.

Moon on the other hand was great all the way through.

Enjoying Doom Patrol. It's got sort of a The Boys vibe but is considerably weirder.

Yeah, I love the super flawed superhero/anti-hero genre. Doom Patrol is great.

Tried e1 of the Capture, a UK mystery sort of deal, not bad, sorta reminds me of Luther which is fucking outstanding btw

Haunting. Though that was actually the original ending before the studio made him re cut it for US audiences.

Habsy and I don't agree on much, but 2 for 2 with Ted Lasso on apple tv.
It's major league but soccer and the character of Lasso is just so damn likeable.

I need some positivity in my life every once and a while. This is a fun show

 

[Habspatrol]

I believe I recommended Ted Lasso months ago too... I really enjoyed it.

Been watching The Morning Show on Apple
TV. It's well done. Enjoying it.

 

[Habspatrol]

Yeah season one was pretty good.

It’s a Sin. On Prime. 5 episode series about the aids epidemic and being gay in the 80s in Britain. Very well acted.

i sure hope that Pet Shop Boys is the opening soundtrack.

 

[blkngldbabe]

You’d figure, It’s not but it is played at one point.
