I was thoroughly and consistently entertained for about 90% of it. Literally so bad it’s good.
Also dumb as hell
Squid Game 2
And?
I watched most of say nothing, a show on Hulu about the Irish troubles. I’ve got one more episode left. It’s alright.
100 years of solitude. I have read the book like 20 years ago, so I didn't remember all details, but seems like they implemented very faithfully to the original, sons of Márquez are producers.
oh man have I been bad today. final fantasy the spirits within. turbokid. isolation. splinter. during the week I finished off taken the tv series which I had started last week.
Lots this week as I took time off work and was sick in bed for a chunk of it ..
- Anora. Superb movie.
- The fountain. This one wasn't for me so much.
- Juror #2. Enjoyed this one but it ran a little longer than I felt it could have.
- The fighter. You get what you're expecting here. Decent popcorn flick.
- Biosphere. Weird one but fun. Way better than the IMDB score imo.
- The long kiss goodnight. Saw it recommended on here as a decent alternative to Die Hard as a Christmas movie and I'd agree. Very 90's.
- Legend. Story of the Kray twins who were London gangsters in the 60's. Tom Hardy is very good as usual.
- Anti matter. Low budget sci-fi. Decent idea but the implementation was middling. Still enjoyed it.
That's about it. A solid week of movies I'd say. :)
came so close to watching the long kiss goodnight but have been wanting fantasy or scifi.
Ah to be honest it's not fantastic. It's just a solid alternative to Die Hard. Definitely a one and done but worth seeing.
Snowfall, going to watch the finale today. And squid game, season 2. It's weird though, it feels like there are 2 episodes missing.
i quit squid game 2 midway through ep5. it really was that bad.
Yeah it was a watch for me because I was bored, not because it kept my attention. I've seen every corner of Lemmy during watching it haha
Looking forward to every episode of Silo season 2! Should I pick up the books?
I recently finished the 3rd one. Wasn't impressed to be honest. Once the mystery is revealed it was kind of a slog.
I read the books when they first came out and feel like the TV show has done a superb job so..... It depends on your personality I suppose.
I loved the lotr movies but have no intention of reading the books. Other times I've been very glad I read the book before seeing a movie but rarely the other way around. I just find your imagination is predisposed to picture what you've already seen rather than building your own world mentally. If that's not an issue for you then they're decent books but do become a slight slog later on as the other commenter said.
Just porn. If anyone cares I can give you the title
