The Old Man (2022)
Merrigan Able 2 points 1 year ago.

At 72, the Dude abides… I’d watch this just for Jeff, and I’ve enjoyed it so far. The Rotties are 😎, too. Jeff has stayed married to his - one and only, wife. I like that. He’s in remission from lymphoma, I hope he stays healthy for many more years to come… 😊

George Carlin's American Dream (2022)
irdulili 3 points 1 year ago.

Wow. So now you have me wondering. If he’d have run, there’s a good chance he could’ve won. Consider the competition he’d have been up against over the years. He could’ve even made the Independent ticket viable and done what Perot or Nader couldn’t. But, think about this: Alternate timeline, 11 September 2001, the unthinkable happens. How does President Carlin respond? How would the world be a different place today? Crazy to think about, isn’t it?

Merrigan Able 1 points 1 year ago.

I don’t think it’s crazy, at all, to think about. But you might think that I’m crazy, because (going along with your alt timeline) I think the world would have ALREADY changed BECAUSE Carlin had become Prez. And in that timeline, 911 would never have happened. Right? grins

🍀MAY he still be resting in peace, and not rolling in his grave🍀

“I call it the freak show…
-When you’re born into this world, you’re given a ticket to the freak show.
-When you’re born in America, you’re given a front row seat”.
~ George Carlin

A superb and comprehensive bio/doc of the late great planet George.

I always thought he should have run for prez, after so many previous presidents that were bad jokes, why not give the job to a real comedian, with great jokes… 😃

This is gonna be a great show, i can feel it.

Merrigan Able 6 points 2 years ago.

I feel you feeling it, and I’m feeling it with you. Also, it stars Oscar Isaac and Ethan Hawke!

Out of Stock: Supply Chain Crisis (2021)
Merrigan Able -1 points 2 years ago.

This series is really creeping me out, like all the ‘catch-phrase’ news that Reuters
sends out to all the global news and media outlets. Rolling out the script and
programming. Flatten that curve! It’s a brave new world…

Dopesick (2021)
Merrigan Able 0 points 2 years ago.

Keaton was great in this top notch series! The Sackler family should be stripped of all their wealth, and be imprisoned for life… (I would say hang them all, but we don’t solve problems like that anymore, which is too bad).

Nitram (2021)

I am originally from Tasmania - and remember that happening.

Merrigan Able 1 points 2 years ago.

Ah yes, Martin Bryant… This looks intriguing, and I also love Judy Davis.

SheWatches 1 points 2 years ago.

Very interesting. It’s a bit like what they are showing on the daily news too.

Merrigan Able 2 points 2 years ago*.

Yes, it’s also a bit like what’s actually happening in my city neighborhood.

Scenes from a Marriage (2021)

This is an excellent mini series. Very intense.
I think i’ll also check out the original 70’s Bergman version.

My Son (2021)
DaniBl 2 points 2 years ago.

Just watched the trailer…McAwoy didn’t get a script when he was acting in this film? Hm…interesting. Anyone seen it?

Merrigan Able 1 points 2 years ago.

Yes I watched it, apparently McAvoy improvised his script. I thought the film was pretty damn good…

Dune (2021)
Merrigan Able 0 points 2 years ago.

This film will be the movie high of my year. I know it will be good and i’ll watch whatever crap cam we get first, because I can’t wait. The books are fantastic, I re-read them every few years. Top notch scifi! Frank Herbert was the best…

The Power of the Dog (2021)
Merrigan Able -2 points 2 years ago.

Cool, a new flick from Jane Campion! Nice one uploader!

Citizen Penn (2021)
Merrigan Able 0 points 2 years ago.

‘Mystic River’ and ‘At Close Range’ are my fave Penn flicks. ‘Bad Boys’ and ‘The Professor and the Madman’ are also pretty good.

Mildred Pierce (2011)
Merrigan Able 0 points 2 years ago.

Kate is great (of course), watching her and Guy in ‘’Mare of Easttown’ brought me here. This is also directed by Todd Haynes, it’s a keeper! Just need some better host links.

Halston (2021)
Merrigan Able 4 points 2 years ago.

Ewan was quite funny as Halston, which made this watchable. The 2019 documentary, on Halston, isn’t bad either.
Just waiting for Netflix (or?) to do a mini series on Warhol. Other than documentary, don’t think Warhol has this honour yet.

Blond, Blue Eyes (2006)
Alien 0 points 3 years ago.

A nice little peek into how Hauer thinks of himself and his career.
He had the most beautiful smile. He was gorgeous right until the end.

Merrigan Able 0 points 2 years ago.

I know it seems stupid, like being a groupie, but I really miss him being in the world. 75 is too soon. He seemed true to himself, and relaxed. Gorgeous in every way.
His book is really interesting. ‘All Those Moments: Stories of Heroes, Villains, Replicants, and Blade Runners’, and is free to dl from Library Genesis, if you fancy epub - ebooks.

The Cat Came Back (1988)
LaserGuy 7 points 3 years ago.

Ahhh great, this.. Along with ‘The Big Snit’, Log Drivers Waltz, and Black Fly are some of the BEST NFB shorts.

Merrigan Able 1 points 2 years ago.

‘The Apprentice’ is hilarious ~ boing… It was my fave short, back in the Super Channel era.

Percy Vs Goliath (2021)
JadeEnigma 5 points 2 years ago.

It’s definitely on my watch list. The documentary about this story (I’m sure it’s here somewhere if some kind-hearted soul will look it up for me because I’m a lazy-a**) is really something as well.

Merrigan Able 3 points 2 years ago.

Yeah, the doc was great “David vs Monsanto”. Percy is dead now, he died in 2020.

Percy Vs Goliath (2021)
Merrigan Able 3 points 2 years ago.

This looks worth watching. Walken portrays Percy Schmeiser vs Monsanto. With an internet release date of April 30 (so sayeth IMDB).

The Gift: The Journey of Johnny Cash (2019)
WLK-MaStRKiLL3r 5 points 3 years ago.

Surperb doc! Johnny was a legend!

Merrigan Able 2 points 3 years ago.

Yes, this does look good. I’ve seen a lot of docs on Johnny, but not this one.

Border (2018)
Merrigan Able 1 points 3 years ago.

What a dark and extraordinary film this was. One of the best of 2018, if not THE best… A strange and marvelous work of art, from Iranian-Swedish director Ali Abbasi. Highly recommend it!💯

Frailty (2002)
Merrigan Able 1 points 3 years ago.

One of my faves… Paxton’s always so smarmy, but in this it wasn’t unpleasant. Of course, it also stars McConaughey and that debbel Boothe. The best kind of thriller, *cool n creepy.

Killer Joe (2012)
Merrigan Able 0 points 3 years ago.

McConaughey is so nasty in this, he was brilliant, so is this film…

Never Grow Old (2019)
Merrigan Able 0 points 3 years ago.

This got badly low-balled on IMDB, so fck that sht. This is a great little film! I thoroughly enjoyed it.
