Condor (2018) S1 E2
PonderThis 2 points 3 years ago.

I like using the “streamtape” link because I had to close the link and reopen and it asked if I wanted to resume where I had left off before closing the link. Also, this is an interesting drama and why I didn’t know this sooner?

delayed to July 10th

PonderThis 1 points 3 years ago.

Yes, thank you for the update! I love WWII movies and looking forward to seeing if this movie tells us something new concerning WWII. I remember how surprised I was when watching The Great Raid, I knew nothing about the 500 GI’s imprisoned for 3 years.

The Newton Boys (1998)
PonderThis 2 points 3 years ago.

Nice little movie with 2 of my favorite actors, Matthew McConaughey and Skeet Ulrich. And how ironic is it for Matthew to be from Uvalde, Texas; the same town as the Newton boys are from?

Hustle (2004) S2 E3
PonderThis 1 points 3 years ago.

I’m liking this little dramedy and as each episode unfolds, you know how it is going to come together. But in this episode I was totally fooled and was shocked by the ending. I didn’t see it coming at all! Marc Warren’s character kinda gets on my nerves every once in awhile but he’s a charmer for sure. I’ve got 8 seasons to watch and I hope each season continues to hold my interest!

Mortal Engines (2018)
PonderThis 2 points 3 years ago*.

This movie had me hooked in the very first scene! How clever! A roll-up city! Very creative mind behind this movie indeed! I do believe Hugo Weaving will always be typecast as an evil villain! I don’t think I’ve ever seen him play none other than a villain. I agree that this movie is like a Mad Max movie on steroids! Could there be a follow up movie? I hope so! Like how Shrike became to be a stalker and who is Hester’s father. I’ve never heard of this movie and it reportedly flopped at the box office losing 100 million…..which means no Mortal Engines II….deep sad sigh goes here

The Omen (1976)
Alien 2 points 3 years ago.

The year this came out I was a young teen when I saw it and it scared the crap out of me and I loved it. To this day I hate baboons, though.

PonderThis -1 points 3 years ago.

I have yet to watch this movie or any satanic movie! When I was in junior high when the “Exorcist” was released. I wouldn’t go see the movie and I doubt that my mother would have let me. But the radio station would play the theme song from the movie (I listened to my transistor radio am station, fm radio wasn’t popular at that time)late at night and it unnerved me so much that I would turn the radio off and grab my bible and slept clutching my bible all night. I was so glad that the song finally dropped off the top 25 playlist!

Hightown (2020) S1 E7

Definitely did not expect that.

I didn’t either and he seemed so sincere too! Saw his breakfast sandwich on the floor and thought this….I bet he didn’t know he…..well….what Krista would have taken……

Aftermath (2013)
Alien 1 points 3 years ago.

Yes, that does answer my question. That’s a long time to shelve a film.
Thank you, PonderThis. I appreciate this.

Ray Donovan. HA!

PonderThis 1 points 3 years ago*.

Very welcome and I thought so too. I need to see if I can find out why it was put “on the shelf” for so long. Wonder if it were something “legal” with Chris Penn’s estate for something?

Aftermath (2013)
Alien 0 points 3 years ago.

How can Chris Penn be in this when he died in 2006?

PonderThis 1 points 3 years ago.

Not sure if this will answer your question…..A decade after it was made, a movie called “Aftermath” is being released at the end of this month featuring Chris Penn. The brother of Sean and Michael Penn died in January 2006. He’s not even on the imdb cast list for this film, but he’s being touted in the press release and promo clip. The movie stars a much younger Anthony Michael Hall and a lot of people who are a decade older like Lily Rabe, Tony Danza, and Frank Whaley, who plays a character called Ray Donovan. Freestyle Releasing, exhumation experts, are sending “Aftermath” into the world for one week in New York and then Los Angeles probably before a DVD and cable launch. Chris Penn was a good actor who died much too soon. We’ll see how much he’s really in this movie…………IMDB does now have him listed…….

Glitch (2015)
PonderThis 1 points 3 years ago.

I like this unusual drama but still trying to figure out why it’s called “Glitch”.

Enemy Lines (2020)
Year of the Rabbit (2019)
bevnick 1 points 3 years ago.

Funny, bawdy & irreverent. All-in-all a great watch, hoping for a second series.

PonderThis 1 points 3 years ago.

Good news for fans of Matt Berry (and, honestly, who isn’t?), Year of the Rabbit has officially been renewed for a second series. The Victorian detective comedy will be back for six more episodes and will see Berry, Freddie Fox and Susan Wokoma return as Inspector Rabbit, Strauss and Mabel respectively.Feb 12, 2020…….not sure when it will return and COVID-19 could be the reason why filming hasn’t started for the 2nd season.

Year of the Rabbit (2019)
PonderThis 1 points 3 years ago.

I had watched the 1st episode last year and then forgot about it. I do like but I sure wish it was an hour long instead of 30 minutes! You just get into the episode, then bam, it’s over until next time.

Yellowstone (2018) S3 E1
PonderThis 3 points 3 years ago.

Damn, this season is gonna be intense! Surprised to see Josh Holloway in season 3 which will bring another level of greatness to this 21st century western! This is a modern day western and looks like it will succeed as Blood & Oil didn’t.

Perry Mason (2020) S1 E1
PonderThis 1 points 3 years ago.

Well, it started out a bit slow. I shall give it a couple episodes and see if I want to stick with it. I remember watching re-runs of Perry Mason as a kid. So, it’s good to finally get some background on Perry and how and why he later became a lawyer.

Curon (2020)
giratina1077 2 points 3 years ago.

youre not wrong. netflix has been gobbling up way too much international film over the years. they also cancelled every good original series they had. i understand this saves them a ton of money by doing this. the problem is what you said. no one wants to read what they watch. most people play games while watching tv or they are cooking or eating or doing homework or whatever else. it is hard to have the focus of reading a book when you watch tv. if you wanted to read a book you would just read a book right? netflix is about over now.

PonderThis 1 points 3 years ago.

I agree with you giratina1077! I’ve been sewing masks for months now (I work at a university and want to have enough made for my grad students who teach classes) and I like to watch stuff here on primewire while sewing. I can’t do that if the movie/tv show has subtitles. I looked at Curon and thought to myself it probably had subtitles. I may watch it later when I’m done with my summer sewing project. I’ve been working from home since mid March and my job doesn’t require much. But if I were on campus, I’d be answering the phone, helping students who come in my office asking questions and helping faculty with this or that. I long for “normal” again so that I can just stretch out on the couch and read subtitled movies/tv shows…….

Force of Nature (2020)
PonderThis 3 points 3 years ago.

Well, that was a waste of my time! Sorry Mel, you need to retire!

You Should Have Left (2020)
PonderThis 2 points 3 years ago.

How ironic! I just clicked onto PW to type in the movie title and low and behold someone had left a comment about the movie. I’ve always liked Kevin Bacon and when in college in the early 80’s, me and my friends would discuss Kevin Bacon! He was the heartthrob at the time!

A Soldier's Revenge (2020)
expresso 1 points 3 years ago.

With an iMDB score of 2.7/10 and actors like Val Kilmer and Neal Bledsoe, this is either going to be hilarious or an all natural method of sedation. Can’t wait.

PonderThis 1 points 3 years ago.

I lasted about about 21 minutes! I started watching because I like Val Kilmer but he hadn’t shown up in the first 21 minutes of the 2+ hour movie. You were right! It’s an all natural method of sedation! I might give it another chance later…..maybe on one of those nights I can’t sleep…..maybe it will put me to sleep……

The Stranger (2020) S1 E4
PonderThis 4 points 3 years ago.

I am really liking this drama! I have no idea where it is heading but it sure is a roll coaster ride for sure!

Snowpiercer (2020) S1 E4
PonderThis 2 points 4 years ago.

That ending was just cold, and I mean cold! Why?

Grant (2020)
PonderThis 1 points 4 years ago.

I agree that it is one of the better documentaries! I, too, am looking forward to tonight’s episode. I really didn’t know that much about Grant and I learned things about the Civil War that I didn’t know. For example, they dug trenches and I knew that African-Americans fought with the Union but didn’t know how many. It would be frightening to think what the outcome would have been if both sides had repeating rifles or pistols instead of the musket rifle etc.

Those Who Kill (2014)
PonderThis 0 points 4 years ago.

Chloë Sevigny is a very good actress and first saw her in the drama Hit & Miss and sadly, it was canceled after season one. Now I found her in this drama Those Who Kill and again, it was canceled after one season. In both dramas she portrays a flawed character and does so rather well. Fine actress and she’s like Johnny Depp or Tom Hardy, throw any character at them and they’ll make it work to perfection.

Hit & Miss (2012)
PonderThis 2 points 4 years ago.

I agree that there should have been a season 2 and can’t believe this drama was canceled! They left us hanging on the edge! At least Sky could have done a movie or a two part mini series to wrap this fine drama up!

White Lines (2020)
PonderThis 1 points 4 years ago.

I have watched 2 episodes and I find the acting rather good! Laura Haddock has been in some rather good dramas such as: Luther, The Level, and Strike Back. Daniel Mays is a fine actor too. Was in the drama Temple with Mark Strong. Granted, he might be considered a character actor but in my opinion a good character actor. Laurence Fox is another fine actor known for his work in Inspector Lewis. With all of these fine actors, I don’t think they would have chosen “bad” actors for this drama!

Tommy (2020)
Cece1954 2 points 4 years ago*.

Excellent show that portrays the evident shortsightedness and bigoted attitude in America today. I hope it gets renewed! Edie Falco is excellent in the portrayal of this character. Kudos to her for doing it!

PonderThis 4 points 4 years ago.

As of May 1, 2020, Tommy has not been cancelled or renewed for a second season. So, it seems this good drama is in limbo!

Some people……I deal with this kind a lot! I work at a university….need I say more. I do appreciate you and the others moderators a lot and you all are keeping a lot of us sane right now. I’m working from home but it’s not a full 9 hour day as it would be if I were on campus. Thanks again to you all!

Shades of Ray (2008)

I just saw the “click here” about 30 minutes ago. Good idea to have it there.

Medici (2016) S1 E1
PonderThis -1 points 4 years ago.

Am I the only one who thinks Stuart Martin (aka Lorenzo here in Medici) looks like Hugh Jackman? I think enough to look like brothers. He’s in the new British drama, Miss Scarlet & The Duke.

Gunpowder, Treason & Plot (2004)
Ozark (2017) S3 E1

PonderThis -3 points 4 years ago.

YKJack, if memory serves me right, a couple of seasons might not have subtitles. I’ve checked steamplay, mystream, and mixdrop in the 3rd season an no subtitles. I, for one, would like to know what is being said as it enhances the continuity of the episode(s). Thank you for looking into this and I won’t be watching the 3rd season just yet it looks like.

Ozark (2017) S3 E1
Beerthirsty -2 points 4 years ago*. (Contains Spoilers)

Hey all! When watching a show and they speak in Spanish in some parts I do not see any subtitles I turned it on through the settings on the vvideo but no dice. Any suggestions?

PonderThis -2 points 4 years ago.

I’ve said the same thing a few weeks ago and I checked again this week. Still no subtitles! I’m not going to watch this season I guess, I don’t like not knowing what is going on!

Manhunt (2017) S1 E1
PonderThis -1 points 4 years ago.

Why didn’t I know about this drama 3 years ago! First episode has my attention and since I’m working from home (yeah right…)I’ll do a little binge watching. Oh, has anyone besides myself noticed the little message from mystream.to down in the lower right side of the screen? It says #stayhome……which is just what I’m doing!

Just Cause (1995)

I thought I recognized a very young Scarlett Johansson playing Katie and I was right, it is Scarlett.

Goldfinger (1965)
PonderThis -3 points 4 years ago.

RIP Honor Blackman! I do believe Pussy Galore is the best name given to any Bond girl. Rather surprised that the censors didn’t tell the director/producers to change the name for her character.

The Whalebone Box (2020)
PonderThis -1 points 4 years ago. (Contains Spoilers)

THE WHALEBONE BOX is a film about a whale bone box. A box made of whale bone. Entangled in a fisherman’s net and washed up on a remote beach in the Outer Hebrides. Once touched the box can change lives.

Missions (2017) S1 E1
PonderThis -2 points 4 years ago.

I really don’t like watching anything with subtitles but the first few minutes of the 1st episode had be convinced that this would be worth watching! Can wait to see how the 1st epi ends!

Southern Comfort (1981)
Alien -2 points 4 years ago.

I think it’s a great movie.
Keith Carradine, Powers Boothe, and Fred Ward are very underrated actors.
Powers Boothe was very popular in the 80’s.

PonderThis -1 points 4 years ago.

And not to mention that Ry Cooder wrote the haunting theme song. Love me some Ry Cooder! Not so much his singing but the man can play that guitar like no ones business!

The Ghost and Mrs. Muir (1947)
PonderThis 0 points 4 years ago.

She was a great actress but she was also an inventor and very intelligent. Some say her inventions lead to what we now call the “cell phone” or as the Europeans call them mobile phones.

The Outsider (2020) S1 E10
PonderThis -4 points 4 years ago*.

How could Holly not notice that! Was it Claude that did it because I didn’t see the evil Claude do anything? In Mr. Mercedes Holly Gibney is a young white woman played by Justine Lupe.

Above Suspicion (2009)
PonderThis -1 points 4 years ago.

Thank you to the uploader who uploaded links for this drama! I found it on another website but it didn’t have season 4 and I was bummed out about. But not now! Thank you, thank you so much!

War of the Worlds (2019)
Endeavour (2012) S7 E3
PonderThis -1 points 4 years ago.

I knew it, I knew it! I keep telling myself that person has to be guilty of something! I do believe Endeavour is the BEST British crime drama thus far!

Hunters (2020)
[deleted]
PonderThis -1 points 4 years ago.

Do the subtitles come up automatically? I’ve had to get up and click onto “cc” English to know what is being said in German. Then I have to click the “cc” to off or I get English subtitles until the end of the episode.

Lincoln Rhyme: Hunt for the Bone Collector (2020)
Star Trek: Picard (2020) S1 E5
PonderThis 3 points 4 years ago.

I knew I recognized Cristóbal Rios played by Santiago Cabrera from somewhere! He was the main character on Salvation which seems to have been canceled. Salvation isn’t really about space travel per say, but how interesting he would land on another space related drama. He was also on last seasons Big Little Lies.

Deputy (2020) S1 E8
ObserverMI -3 points 4 years ago*.

This was the worse episode of the series so far. The directing and story seemed odd and put together sloppily. Also the P.C. aspects of it….if they don’t stop forcing it in to the stories just for the sake of them, they take away from the whole point and ruin the time spent.

PonderThis 1 points 4 years ago.

Really, I have found every episode really good! What are you comparing it too? I know British crime dramas are very good but Deputy is a lot better than some of the crime dramas here in the US!I do like it better than The Rookie at times. The Rookie can be silly at times. If you don’t like Deputy then don’t watch it. Didn’t you post very same comment last week about P.C.? As I said, if you don’t like it don’t watch it therefore you won’t have to post such negative comments!

Hunters (2020)
Odie -1 points 4 years ago.

So is there suppose to be no Subtitles?

PonderThis -3 points 4 years ago.

Which link(s) did you try? I found this drama on another site and the link I tried was streamplay and it was in English. I didn’t watch the first episode all the way, so there might be some scenes without subtitles.

Vera (2011) S10 E3
PonderThis 0 points 4 years ago*.

I know I’m not crazy, but this is an episode from last season I think! Or another season. Did someone upload the wrong episode? Or did the British network show a rerun? And the description of this episode has nothing to do with what we’re seeing in every link!

Grey's Anatomy (2005) S16 E10
PonderThis -1 points 4 years ago.

The audio is out of sync on this episode! Of all episodes for this to happen on and every link has this problem! Can someone fix this or upload the episode that the audio isn’t out of sync? Thank you
