Re: Box Sets, Mini series, films, etc.
1st series of Andor done and dusted (12 episodes)
It's a slow burner and much more grownup than all the other star wars stuff.
Episode 10 is the real standout, you can't beat a bit of Andy Serkis.

I did.
Not that surprising really, Star Wars can never resist having everything in the galaxy involve the same small number of people.
Has Stellan Skarsgård ever not been scary as hell as well?

I'm working my way through "Pepsi, where's my jet".
It's like sticking a complete novice into a poker final, the financial backer lets the student make big decisions.
It has lawyers, arms dealers, riots, petrol bombs & blackmail.

1899, it got to the point where it seemed too much like Lost and I lost interest.
My wife kept with it and in the final episode Pam Ewing woke up and Bobby was in the in the shower after all and it was just a dream.
Wank.

Wednesday on Netflix is quite amusing, loads of visual gags, macabre humour and a some Cramps tunes.

Shocking scenes might be less shocking on second watch, but Emilia Clarke remains undiminished
There's not a lot of her to start with though TBF.

I watched this the other day, it's certainly a strange tale.
I couldn't help wondering if I ever worked on the harrier in the background, there's a fair chance that I did in the early 90's

Based on true story/events etc. Cast of farsands! Hollywood must have only made one film that year as everyone was in this!. Not bad at all for one of those type films.

Quite enjoying the latest series of The Crown because despite it being so recent there's a lot you forget, and TBF I wasn't remotely interested in the Royals in the 90s. The bits about the Al Fayed family are really interesting anyway. I certainly didn't watch the news much in that period so presumably much of my royals news came from my folks discarded copies of the DailyMail, which certainly put a different slant on it.

Don't want to be rude, but from what I've read, there's very little historical accuracy.DefTrap wrote: ↑Tue Dec 06, 2022 8:03 pm Quite enjoying the latest series of The Crown because despite it being so recent there's a lot you forget, and TBF I wasn't remotely interested in the Royals in the 90s.

As Good as it Gets, for about the 20th time. It is probably my wife and I's favourite film and we enjoyed it, yet again!

Well it's interesting how the Al Fayeds positioned themselves 'into society' despite presumably a fair bit of resistance

Willow.
Just finished the 3rd episode, it's not as terrible as it could be.
It's actually quite funny, tho' Warwick Davis' acting is more wooden than a wooden thing made of wood.

Re: Box Sets, Mini series, films, etc.
Eventually finished The Devil's Hour last night (Prime).
It was pretty good, got to the last episode thinking 'how the hell are they going to wrap this lot up?' but they did, in an interesting way.
Brutal murders, serial killer, weird kid, Peter Capaldi, timey-wimey stuff.

The Man from Laramie. Old western with James Stewart. Been meaning to watch it for years and finally did. Glad I did too.
