OT: Movies/TV Shows

[zeke]

it's Crash-level bad.

 

[Habsy]

I had to do drugs to get through a movie about not doing drugs (albeit for disorders).

 

[LeafOfFaith]

It's no Guardians of the Galaxy 2.

 

[Habsy]

It's no Guardians of the Galaxy 2.

That the one with Kurt Russell? If so ya that was painful. Even the jokes couldn't save it like the first one.

 

[zeke]

it's worse than Fantastic Four reboot.

 

[LeafOfFaith]

I'll say this much, it's no Guardians of the Galaxy 3.

 

[JackBurton]

Only one I want is Howard Stern's fartman.

 

[Habspatrol]

I'm so bored of superhero films. I hope they start bombing.

You could just stop watching them.

 

[LeafOfFaith]

That's crazy enough that it might just work.

Finished s3 of the Boys. Excellent TV.

Been watChing Umbrella academy s3 and it’s good but not nearly as good as Boys.

Started The Bear. Pretty cool show. Reminds me of my time many years ago working in a restaurant. Hectic, people yelling, organized mess. Pure chaos.

 

[LeafOfFaith]

Presty should know that I've started Saul S6. Fair warning.

 

[Habsy]

In fairness, that's because every word in the English language is translated as groot.

SPOILERS!!!

it's worse than Fantastic Four reboot.

The original (2005) wasn't anything special either (not that I was fan of the comic book as a kid).

Course the 1994 version was even worse. Course, I *think* they only made that 1994 version to protect their film rights on the "property"

Have you watched Doom Patrol? It's another anti hero show like The Boys and Umbrella Academy... it's really good.

what a pace!!!! there's no stopping your productive tv watching when you visit FI less often!

 

[Preston]

Season 5 episode 1 for ol' Presty. Disagree that it's better than Breaking Bad, but it's a lovely program.

I watched s1 but didn’t ever get back into it. Might have to check it out. I watched Titans and it wasn’t that good after s1 so I got thrown off a bit. Great reviews for Doom Patrol.

I felt the same way. In my case, I had pretty low expectations going in watching that series so that might've affected my initial opinions of that series.

 

[LeafOfFaith]

@zeke and @Preston - did they ever explain how and when exactly Chuck got his condition? Sounded like after his break up, but I don’t recall them ever really getting into it. Did I miss it somehow?

Edit - I know it was all in his head, but what spurred it? Ever explained?

 

[zeke]

Yeah they left it deliberately ambiguous - like it may have been real, but likelier just stress related (he's a pretty intense perfectionist himself, but then the breakup triggers it i think and iirc it would worsen because of the stress Jimmy put him under too).
