This was nominated for an Academy Award. It was cute. A case of art imitating life.

I saw the title & got ‘interested’ bahahahaha.

Looking forward to this, looks like it should be pretty fun.

Used to love musicals growing up but grew tired of them the older I got due to the ridiculousness. This totally spoofs the genre hilariously & does so brilliantly w/absurdity to the max. Really amazing acting, writing, costumes & sets. This just might get me back into musicals or maybe solidify my distaste for them lol.

Thank you for commenting. I ‘d seen the trailer for this before it came out & then didn’t hear a thing about it.

I knew there would be no elimination. The top 4 are all way too good to go home now. Can’t wait for the crown to go to Sasha in the finale though!

Anetra killed it this challenge w/her teacher look alike. SO glad Loosey went home. She was such a complainer & so delusional thinking she should’ve won week after week. I was ready for her to go!

I think this is a great top four w/Mistress, Sasha, Luxx & Anetra. Kind of surprised Ru said they’re going to get it down to a top 3 when last season there was a top 4 on season 14. Have no idea who they’d eliminate.

Great 1st epi. Lots of dark comedy w/a great cast. Odenkirk is in his element.

Comedy. That’s the point.

No not Salina!!!! I really thought she brought it in the synch & Loosey’s was just bland. I really wanted Loosey to go home. Sick of her BS. And her runway did not wow me at all whereas Salina’s outfit was fun & inventive. I hope Loosey goes home next week before the top 4 is formed! Pleeeeeease go home!!!!

Piglet 0 points 2 years ago.

Well, by the looks of the trailer, it certainly is nothing like Yellowstone that’s for sure. Not sure if I’ll watch it at this point.

augusts1 2 points 1 year ago*.

This is SO excellent. I’ve not watched Yellowstone & not much interested in it from what I’ve seen from the trailer since I’m not much for cowboy/rancher dramas. This has enough paranormal oddness to it to make it interesting for me though. I’m really hoping it gets a 2nd season.

Outer Range (2022)
irdulili 3 points 2 years ago.

Calling this show weird is actually an understatement. If people want to use Yellowstone for comparison, imagine if Salvador Dali painted it. The beauty and the realism is there but everything is strange, cruel and wrong.

augusts1 2 points 1 year ago.

So wrong it’s right!

A Man Called Ove (2015)
augusts1 1 points 1 year ago.

This is the original version that A Man Called Otto w/Tom Hanks is based on. Looks good. Apparently this is based on a book by the same name from what I’ve heard from other members here.

Naw, I don’t agree. There’s definitely people not from ‘the hood’ that do the same thing.

Some funny stuff but he sure repeats himself a lot. He could do twice the material if he didn’t repeat himself so much lol.

RuPaul's Drag Race (2009) S15 E11
augusts1 2 points 1 year ago. (Contains Spoilers)

The stand up routines really were not very funny except for the winners & even they weren’t great imo. Lux & Looseys runways killed though as did Sasha, Anitra & Mistress’s looks. Wasn’t surprised who went home.

Fleabag (2016)
MM 4 points 4 years ago*.

Ridiculous.Perverted. Totally self-obsessed. Hard to see the funny of it, really.
The 80-minute comedy presentation version was far more compelling.

LATER:
after Episode 6 :
Ok..that assessment was too precipitous.

The drama was expected, even predictable, but not the way it kicked in.

LATER STILL:

BRILLIANT.

augusts1 1 points 1 year ago.

Love the progression of your critique! I fell for it immediately upon watching the 1st epi not long after it 1st came out in ‘16. I tried to get others hooked on it w/no success. Then after the success of Killing Eve people started checking out Phoebe Waller Bridge’s previous work & so Fleabag started to gain a following in ‘18. I’m so glad people finally caught on since it really is a totally brilliant series.

Here you go: https://www.primewire.li/movie/1340114-national-theatre-live-fleabag BTW Mr. & Mrs. Smith show is starring Donald Glover who I love too, so I’m definitely in. With those 2 starring it should be great.

Well, if Phoebe is involved I will at least check it out since I ADORED Fleabag & her. Thanks for letting me know.

Have you seen the stage play Fleabag was based on? It’s quite good but it’s nowhere near as good as the TV show since there are characters other than hers in the show too that are equally funny,quirky & disturbing. Glad I saw the play since it’s the genesis of her Fleabag character. Pretty sure it’s on here if you’re interested.

True Lies (2023) S1 E1
Alien 1 points 1 year ago.

This is so lame. Poor Steve Howey. To go from “Shameless” to this ridiculous show is pathetic. And he lost so much weight and muscle. He used to be herculean.
Too bad. So sad.

augusts1 1 points 1 year ago.

Yea he looks so different. I didn’t recognize him in the trailer. Keeping big muscles takes a lot of work though in the gym & eating a lot to maintain it. Enjoyed him on Shameless but this is just a rehash of a few movies w/a similar storyline of being a secret spy couple.

The Last of Us (2023) S1 E8

This should work for everyone. Search The Last of Us in Google. A mushroom icon should pop up at the bottom of the page. Click on it and keep clicking it.
Tell me if you see anything amazing.

EDIT: after a couple hundred clicks your peripheral vision is called upon

augusts1 2 points 1 year ago.

Awesome, thanks for the headsup.

alexisbits 2 points 1 year ago. (Contains Spoilers)

Sasha and Loosey were incredible. I wasn’t surprised at the bottom two. And Salina EsTitties had every move down, so of course she stayed. Great episode.

augusts1 3 points 1 year ago. (Contains Spoilers)

I really thought Loosey was far better in the challenge than Sasha & should have won (as much as I love Sasha). Although her runway outfit was pretty boring in comparison to Sasha’s or any of the other girls for that matter. So I guess Sasha was more consistent all around since she handled Charo fairly well despite it being chaotic.

Did you know Salina’s last name is a play on the abbreviation STD? I found that out in the comment section on youtube. I had no idea till then lol. Brilliant.

alexisbits 3 points 1 year ago.

Wow, 15 years! I met one of the Queens of the first season (THAT is a story!) and was hooked. But seeing it’s 15 years later. . . To quote Madonna, “Before you know, you’re feeling old”.

augusts1 3 points 1 year ago. (Contains Spoilers)

LOL yup I hear you & I’m old AF. So who was it that you met from the 1st season? This was a fun epi. Loved Ru’s performance and Spice’s exit will go down in RPDR herstory. I watched it 3 times, it was THAT funny! Also Sasha hands down won the Crystal Ball. TBH I’m really surprised she hasn’t done better. Then again, she came w/such a legacy , it would be hard for anyone to live up to. BTW, love our RPDR takeover in the featured comments section each week lol.

Willard (2003)
alexisbits 3 points 1 year ago.

If you’ve seen the original, it’s definitely predictable. But still a fun watch. Crispin plays crazy quite well, though.

augusts1 2 points 1 year ago.

Yes it’s a movie that’s basically about the journey, not the ending result.

RuPaul's Drag Race (2009) S15 E8
augusts1 2 points 1 year ago.

This was A LOT of fun & loved the twist at the end which you can always count on RPDR to do. The Lip Synch between Sasha & Anetra was EPIC! Quite a few other good ones too.

Willard (2003)
alexisbits 3 points 1 year ago.

A rare remake that surpasses the original. I love how they used Agouti and black for all the rats except Socrates and Ben, so they would stand out. Ben was a Giant African Pouched rat (the kind they use to sniff out landmines). I still don’t know why Willard hated Ben so much, all Ben wanted was the same love Socrates got.

augusts1 2 points 1 year ago.

Entertaining movie although quite predictable. Crispin Glover is great in whatever he does & is so creepy & quirky.

RuPaul's Drag Race (2009) S15 E7
alexisbits 2 points 1 year ago. (Contains Spoilers)

You could SEE how pissed Michelle was when Spice went to the back of the stage. lol. Mistress and Babydoll did work well together. And you’re right, that calculated move to take Aura’s role worked.

augusts1 2 points 1 year ago. (Contains Spoilers)

We may very well see Spice going home this week LOL

RuPaul's Drag Race (2009) S15 E7
augusts1 2 points 1 year ago. (Contains Spoilers)

This wasn’t as funny as the 1st one last season. Mistress & Malaysia brought it though & were the standouts despite their beef. Mistress really played her cards right by offering to take over that role from Aura lol. I thought Spice did much better than the judges gave her credit though in the challenge but were spot on w/their critique of her runway presentation. She got Michelle back though when she retreated to the back of the stage LOL. Love the smartassery!

Legendary (2020)
alexisbits 3 points 1 year ago.

I was sad to see the news that they canceled this show. It was fun.

Agreed. Any type of LGBTQIA+ programming doesn’t seem to last long w/RPDR being the biggest exception.

Always glad to provide a chuckle, augusts1! It’s funny, she’s been in so many other things (including “To Wong Foo”, which lost yet another cast member recently. Melinda Dillon/Merna).

augusts1 2 points 1 year ago.

I didn’t know why you referenced that line & watched the 1st epi then understood why lol. She is a great actor. Loved the 1st epi too, it was very well done (see my review on the main page).

Just re-reading this thread & it made me literally laugh out loud.

Anne Rice's Mayfair Witches (2023) S1 E2
alexisbits 3 points 1 year ago.

Oh no. The books and show are different enough that you wouldn’t need to have read them to understand the series. Each is good in it’s own way, but (even though I’ve read the novels a couple times), I think the TV adaptation is better. At least, so far. I’d say to give it a go.

augusts1 3 points 1 year ago.

Excellent. I’m planning on it. I do love Anne Rice & have read the vamp chronicles & Cry To Heaven which I loved. I own a bunch of others including the 1st book of the Mayfair books but have yet to read them. I think I even tried reading it but I found Anne to get FAR too into unnecessary descriptions. I kind of lost interest in her writing in the last vamp book when Lestat meets Memnoch the devil & tours hell. Anne goes on & on endlessly w/descriptions of the surroundings of hell. I just found myself skipping over whole chapters since they were mainly describing sections of hell. Ugh! lol.

alexisbits 1 points 1 year ago. (Contains Spoilers)

Robin definitely seemed like one to watch out for. But Jax wanted it more. She is gorgeous, though Spice is more my type.

I’m not even that old and I STILL hurt watching them! lol.

augusts1 2 points 1 year ago.

Spice is a little too ‘sugary’ for me (see what I did there? lol). I like them fine but I much prefer far more spice than she offers. Ya know the saying - the darker the berry, the sweeter the juice lol.

It’s a beehotch gettin’old let me tell you!!!

Finally trying to catch up on this show. I must say, for a woman who was sedated and wheelchair bound for years, Deirdre walks surprisingly well in heels. Not a bad episode. Interesting how the show is taking a different direction than the novels, but it’s working.

augusts1 2 points 1 year ago.

I’ve not read the books. Will I be totally lost if I watch this? I already have it on my list from when you commented on the 1st epi but have yet to watch.

Those old ladies sure can move. . . Seriously, a lot of them were rapping (even when supposedly doing Country or Metal). I thought Sasha was going to take this one. The bottom two didn’t surprise me. Fun lip sync song.

augusts1 2 points 1 year ago*. (Contains Spoilers)

I really thought that Robin Fierce was going to go far. She had some amazing looks & did decently in the challenges. Such a gorgeous queen in & out of drag too. Going to miss her the rest of the season!

Yea, I’m old af & can’t move like they were moving in old lady drag lol.

The Last of Us (2023)
Piglet 4 points 1 year ago.

I too stopped watching TWD when Glen was killed. At least with this new drama there could be a cure unlike in TWD. So, does this mean this new drama might not drag on and on? I know nothing about the game that this drama is based on…..

augusts1 3 points 1 year ago.

I have no idea unfortunately since I too am not familiar w/the game.

The Last of Us (2023)
grasshopper rex 7 points 1 year ago.

Episode 3 changed my mind. I’ll be watching the rest of it.

augusts1 2 points 1 year ago.

Oh interesting. Thanks for the update.

Fists of the White Lotus (1980)
augusts1 2 points 1 year ago.

This looks so cheesy & funny. Tarantino based a ton of Kill Bill vol. 1 on The Shaw Brothers’ movies. Just watching the trailer for this I really see the visual style Tarantino emulated. I look forward to watching this.

The Last of Us (2023)
grasshopper rex 1 points 1 year ago.

A decent watch, but I don’t get why people are raving about. No single aspect of it is in any way original.

augusts1 1 points 1 year ago.

Good to know. I think probably in the wake of The Waking Dead ending last year that fanbase is desperate for more, so anything halfway decent that resembles it is going to get huge praise. That is my best guess.

I loved TWD but around season 6 or so I tapped out since it just got to be too depressing despite how good it was. It was always people constantly grieving the deaths of the other characters. I suspect this show is probably a similar dynamic too but I’ll watch the 1st epi & give it a chance at least.

Everyone Else Burns (2023) S1 E1
alexisbits 2 points 1 year ago.

I don’t think I’ve seen that one. But I’ll be looking it up. Thanks, augusts1. And yes, this show is hilarious.

augusts1 2 points 1 year ago.

I think you’d like it. The family in the ministry is pretty f’ed up yet funny. Danny McBride is one of the sons & he’s always OTT.Worth checking out.

Everyone Else Burns (2023) S1 E1
alexisbits 3 points 1 year ago.

A funny and scathing depiction of some of the extreme religious types. Worth a watch.

augusts1 4 points 1 year ago.

This looks funnier than ‘The Righteous Gemstones’. TRG got pretty dark but has a top notch cast.

RuPaul's Drag Race (2009) S15 E4
alexisbits 2 points 1 year ago. (Contains Spoilers)

YouTube is one of the sites PW allows. I’m surprised Tubi isn’t. Shocked you’ve not seen the original “Hellraiser”. I’d say watch it first, THEN the remake. Some of the sequels to the original are fun too. If PW still had the option to watch movies with friends, I’d say “let’s do a Hellraiser night”. lol. Miss that option, but I understand.

augusts1 2 points 1 year ago.

Original Hellraiser has been on my list for a long time. Not sure why I can’t seem to get myself to watch it though. I guess there’s just too many other things I’d much rather watch lol.

RuPaul's Drag Race (2009) S15 E4
alexisbits 1 points 1 year ago. (Contains Spoilers)

She tried out for the role of Hellpriest/Pinhead for the “Hellraiser” remake. I would’ve loved to see that, though Jamie Clayton did a good job too. On another note, have you see the Gottmik Paris tutorial on Youtube? https://youtu.be/w_AAXLC-uY0

augusts1 2 points 1 year ago.

Oh yes I knew about Mik trying for the role. It would’ve been awesome. I’ve yet to see the remake or even the original lol. I’ll check out that tutorial. Surprised you could post that!
