I rarely watch dubbed shows. I will look elsewhere. The dubbing is not good at all, never is.

Sigh…the links are back up, and they’re all dubbed again. I looked around and couldn’t find a copy anywhere else that isn’t dubbed as well.

It’s Gregers from Beforeigners! Good IMDB score, this looks like a good nordic noir binge

The Winter King (2023) S1 E5
expresso 2 points 6 months ago. (Contains Spoilers)

Credit where credit is due, in the fifth episode this is finally becoming watchable (more action, less Nimue). I’m becoming fond of Arthur-as-CEO: in this episode, we see the CEO take his rival CEO out for a couple rounds of golf (spear fishing) to suss each other out and do some bonding (result, an offer of mentoring in this whole being king thing). Highlights: terrific swordfighting and all out brawling between besties in trial by combat, with a sincere cinematic attempt to portray a scene in the rain almost realistically (hey, it counts). Major side eye: ‘sumer is icumen in’ was written in Wessex sometime in the thirteenth century, even in mythology it’s hard to believe that any self-respecting Dumnonian would be caught dead singing a Saxon roundel, oopsie.

This is amazing - how did I miss this?

The Black Hole (2006)

Had to go read IMDb reviews to see if this had cult classic potential, gave it a try, bag of nope.

Star Trek: Deep Space Nine (1993)

Ah, this is a great candidate for a leisurely binge rewatch!

Reservation Dogs (2021) S3 E9

Warm, funny, sad, awkward, too real, and hopeful. Very well written and acted. 10/10

Now that’s what’s I call farce!

Thank you TooMuchFire for posting a comment on this drama. I usually don’t want to watch tv shows that have subtitles, but I watched a few minutes of this one and decided I would watch it despite the subtitles. Looks good so far and the last season was in 2019. Here is what I found and filming could have halted due to covid….“Arctic Circle” was produced by Yellow Film & TV for Elisa, the leading Finnish streaming service. The series’s second season will be filming until March and will launch on Elisa at the end of the year. Nov 20, 2020”

expresso 1 points 6 months ago.

The second season for Ivalo / Arctic Circle was delayed and finally dropped at the beginning of 2022.

Great story, good plot twists, fast paced, maximum cliffhanger - must have season 2!

This is similar to Fortitude and excellent! 5/5 It will be interesting to see how and whether the pandemic affects the story arc of season 2…

Looking for a new Nordic Noir to binge, this looks good

American Rust (2021)

Saved this one for later - glad this came up in the feed, supposed to be excellent

Peak TV before the Peak TV meme was invented. Excellent binge, never got over it when it wasn’t renewed.

oh my god these two are an absolute scream.

GeminiSaga 1 points 8 months ago.

Season 2 is terrible compared to the first. Poor writing.

expresso 2 points 6 months ago*.

Despite the fact your statement is absolutely true, still did the rewatch, to enjoy David Tennant swanning and flouncing around. These two absolutely ooze chemistry for each other. Currently watching Staging and they’re just as funny out of costume

Staged (2020) S1 E1

What a hidden gem! 5/5 Found this on Michael Sheen’s IMDb :)

David Tennant is having the time of his life doing this, I keep coming back for that

Monarch: Legacy of Monsters (2023)
hackenprof 0 points 6 months ago.

Nope. IMDB lists the credit wrong, but it’s correct in his bio as well as wiki, just “Swede”. As far as Pete Koch in Heartbreak Ridge, he’s credited as Private “Swede” Johanson, but he is first referenced in the movie as “The Swede” (though later chants of “Swede! Swede!” can be heard just before Clint kicks his ass.) Thanks for playing. Semper Fi

expresso 2 points 6 months ago.

I went to his IMDb page, holy hell, he has more credits than Sean Bean, this man never stops working

Rise of the Clans (2018)
expresso 2 points 6 months ago*.

Excellent 5/5 - if you’re a fan of Outlander and Scots history you’ll really like this! I was able to retrieve Part 3 using vidsrc, there are currently no links.

Mike Tyson??!?!? And Steven Segal (uncredited) this goes straight to the cult classics playlist

The Winter King (2023) S1 E3
expresso 4 points 6 months ago. (Contains Spoilers)

After The Last Kingdom I was really looking forward to this and it really suffers in comparison. It’s hard to make action/adventure slow and murky and hard to follow but here we are. As someone said, it seems like they lifted the names of characters from legend and the books, and that’s about it. Arthur has no skill or regard for the hearts and minds aspect of being a leader and three episodes in there’s nothing to like about him. He’s a corporate CEO who has no compassion and little to no persuasive ability, and makes no effort to explain himself to anybody (except to the warlord who just slaughtered the majority of his people literally hours ago). This is supposed to come across as edgy and brilliant but it comes across as reptilian and pitiless. It’s not just him, there’s not much complexity or depth to any of the characters as they are being potrayed, they’re one dimensional. I find myself seriously disliking and not feeling any sympathy for Nimue despite what she’s been through. I’m even more disappointed in the showrunners’ sloppy and careless effort at period representation, they just phoned it in and it shows. Corn on the cob did not come to the old world until 1500, why are they eating bread with no meat, metal was precious in the dark ages and would not be used to make water carrying cans, all liquid was stored in barrels, etc. This is Xena level bad, without the camp. I’ll probably give it one more epi and then go do a Vikings rewatch.

Night Sky (2022)
Cannabliss 2 points 6 months ago.

Right, reminds me of Raised by Wolves. I’m still heartbroken that one got cancelled.
So do i start this series in which i know i will love and set myself up for dissapoinment, or just not watch it? i know myself too well, and I’m most certainly bout to binge this. lmao (:

expresso 3 points 6 months ago.

Oh, that one too. I’m just wrecked over it. I keep thinking because it’s Ridley Scott, maybe someone will pick it up…

Night Sky (2022)
expresso 5 points 6 months ago*.

So frustrating this will not have a season 2, it is so awesome! Makes that last episode pure torture….

They did a perfect job of making this so exquisitely slow, damn, why did they wait until the last episode??

The Changeling (2023)

slow slow slow. i like the premise, but disappointed in three episodes of backstory. I’ll stick with it.
