Fun. Dumb. Full of Action. And a touch heart-warming. Exactly what I was looking for on the night.

I agree with every word of that. Chibnall was always the problem. Bloke is an absolutely appalling writer and showrunner. The cast had nothing to work with at all. So glad that he’s leaving next year. Toby Whithouse would have been my choice after Moffat stepped down.

Oh, yeah. A whole planet wants to leave the federation and what’s gonna stop them is a clause in a treaty. How exactly is the federation going to stop them? The same way they stopped most of them leaving after the burn?

Enjoyable, mindless fun — but really, who is expecting great art?!? Definitely better than the first Suicide Squad movie. James Gunn brought his style & humour to the action.. and the blood is all just part of his Troma background.

I have enjoyed Jodie Whittaker as the Doctor, but wish that the writing had been better for her seasons — she has been saddled with some of the poorest writing since the return in 2005. Here’s hoping (perhaps beyond hope) that her swan-song season (plus specials) finally makes it up to her by having some good stories with good writing.

Wow. Like an episode of Caillou. Is this the level of imagination left? High concept has turned to preteen, after school special, levels of thought. Mildly going where everyone has before.

It’s like Desperate Housewives meets Weeds for a party at Breaking Bad’s house… so that’s a win-win-win

Got about twenty minutes into it, pretty boring, and then I tapped out. The sound level between the background music and the audio of the people speaking is waaaayyyy off. The music in blaring and you have to strain to listen to the people, which you really would not want to do as what they have to say isn’t interesting at all. The doc seems weirdly put together and does not easily present an argument for or against anything immediately. Seemed more like a weird collage of youtubers and personality types, without explaining either. Not a fan.ps I also hate labels.

Think Brexit… was it easy for the UK to leave the EU? Not at all. Now imagine if any country in the EU could leave on a whim without any repercussions. What if a new anti-EU, populist leader is elected and says “Hey, we’re out” — if it’s that easy, then anyone could go whenever for whatever reason. As stated in the show, if we did that then you get all the benefits of membership and all the responsibility is on us. This is the way coalitions work in the real world - the EU, NATO, UN, OPEC, etc. etc. etc. Exit clauses are never “you can leave whenever you want with no conditions” but rather “if you want to leave, there is a process for that (and it won’t be easy).

But there were also Federation ships in all the quadrants and territories within the Federation. So there was a lot more to it just being proximity with Dilithium based warp tech.

And kudos for the Brexit analogy. Well put.

Exciting and very cool alternative version of Watchmen as they call it. Still I don’t see how Dr. Manhattan could die now when he died in a similar way in the movie… and yeah brought himself back to life. That is the only thing I can see as negative about this mini series. Other than that I really enjoyed it and I really can’t see why this much hate for it. It was a very cool and dark story ! And is a much watch for any comic-book fan.

This film is stunningly good - It is beautiful and disturbing in equal measure (i.e., a later-period Michael Haneke film). Set in a small village in Germany between the wars it links the harshly punitive nature of the outcome of WWI to the horror that was to come in WWII.

Kate Beckinsale YES PLEASE. Isla Fisher less please.

yeah, every time they took a hit/jolt flames would shoot out in the exact same spots…guess their regular FX guy had a day off and they filled his spot with the pyro roadie from a rock band…even all the flames were identical height and intensity like a rock concert lol
A for effort D for realism lol

This is kind of the plot of “Audition” isn’t it? Though I suppose it doesn’t end the same way as that one did… although — maybe?

Hiiiiie, do see above…I love it when peeps make comments on programs they’ve not even viewed….smh——any news on any of the above we both mentioned besides that mentioned? I love all my English Roses so very much!! Although—Absolutely Fabulous—-the movie—was a carbuncle on their legacy…..what do u think?

Oh, Danny DeVito… you are a national treasure. :D :D :D

if i thought the first was perfection and the rest were total trash, would i like this one? just trying to figure out if i want to spend any time on it.

ABC has decided to Cancel Stumptown Season 2 because of Covid-19 issues.

not to judge it to harshly before even watching it but right off the bat the discerption has the the years wrong. it says its set in 1993 a year after Silence of the lambs…but silence of the lambs is set in 1990 so that would be 3 years…not 1 year as its saying. sorry to be so nit picky but as a fan of the series i can’t help it.

Predicable stuff, the usual female cop/PI who is a renegade. She’s ex-military so she can take down guys that outweigh her by 150 pounds…………….the usual car chase with cars flying through the air. It’s all been done before
It’s a typical ABC/NBC/CBS/FOX series

if this is meant to be set after the movie, why does she look like a bairn?

You had me at “Tina Fey”

Well then, you need new friends. 😏 It is a beautiful story and movie.

I only ended up watching because in trailers I saw Danny Trejo and Eli Roth were also going to star, but do yourself a favor and skip this. I get it’s supposed to be an old western horror parody, but it comes off like a cheap retro porn. If they’re going to make movie intentionally this bad then they could’ve at least made it funny. Completely dry acting with terrible pacing throughout. I struggled watching entire movie and wouldn’t be surprised if anyone tapped out early in.

Wasn’t sure I was going to like the show because I don’t like Pete Davidson and find drug humour to be pretty lazy in general. Watched it because I like John Goodman and Woody Harrelson enough to give it a try (and was slightly familiar with the comic on which it was based). Even though the drug humour is, as expected, pretty low-hanging fruit comically, and there are A LOT of fart jokes, the satire inherent in the “1969 hippies wake up in 2020” balances out the lazier material. Enjoyed enough to watch season 2 if that happens.

Thanks for the review, all my fav shows in one series, do not know how I missed this but I will definitely be binge watching all the seasons!

Not quite as funny (yet) as Superstore (that one built up A LOT of running jokes and that takes time) and not as satirically biting as Better Off Ted, but if you liked either/both of those shows, then you’ll probably like this one too. Enjoyable.

I miss the “featureless white void” because hearing the audience laugh a little bit every couple of lines now is weird and off-putting…

…unless you want a real job…

William Hurt - but yes they are!

One of the best sequels in quite a while. Blade Runner (1982) was to me the best Noir detective film of the time. Not only because it had great effects but the story itself which was adapted from Philip K. Dick’s short tale - Do android dream of electric sheep held a deep connection between the viewer and the narrator. Every performance brought forth by the cast was outstanding. From Ryan Gosling to Harrison Ford and of course, Sylvia Hoek who really captured and portrayed her role to perfection as a replicant. Emotions were set high in this second half of the franchise leaving the viewer to contemplate on what is possible through science and technology. Creating slaves to work off-world for their masters isn’t too far fetched if one thinks about the implications. Jared Leto’s performance was spot on as the megalomaniac Niander Wallace along with Bautista who also played a run-a-way replicant. The whole cast worked so well, one cannot stop watching as they each break away from reality only to stop and regain their humanity when their lives are on the line. Blade Runner over the last thirty nine years has become an iconic stepping stone for many new breakthroughs in film such as, Children of Men, Sunshine, Snowpiercer, the girl with the dragon tattoo, and of course George Orwell’s dystopian vision - 1984 from the 1949 novel of the same name. Without Blade Runner, none of the other films might have made it to the silver screen in such a visceral fashion as they were meant to be. But I was so glad that Blade Runner 2049 had won two academy awards to help seal its success and to give us a preempt to what is to come later on in the franchise. Ten out of ten stars. Beautiful directing by Denis Villeneuve who has finally finished the Dune re-adaptation. And from what I have been hearing, it’s a thrill ride unlike anything that David Lynch could pull off.

I would have liked to be a fly on the wall when they pitched that “Here’s my idea, Its about a cannibal troll but he doesn’t eat trolls”

Outstanding. After you watch this, you must see Jeremy Saulnier’s other film, “Green Room”, which happens to also star Anton Yelchin. https://www.primewire.li/movie/110245-watch-green-room
