Oso planning to go pro
Agreed on Flight Attendant. Watched into the third episode, I think, and gave it up. My wife's comment was she is way to much of a hot mess. Yeah, not enjoyable.
Wonder Woman 1984 is bad. Really, really bad.
Burn DCEU to the ground. That was awful.
Throw Marvel in there is well. Maybe then, Hollywood would finally produce some movies that aren't sequels to comic book movies.Spare Deadpool, though. I like his brand of smartassery.
At least Marvel has put out entertaining enjoyable films. DCU has flopped all but 1 (Wonderwoman) arguably 2 (Man of Steel)
I thought Wonderwoman was pretty terrible as well. I may be in the minority on that.
Just watched Class Action Park on HBO. Highly recommend. 90 minutes flies by..
I liked Birds of Prey. Surprisingly enjoyable and fun. The First WW was okay, but it was just a rip-off of the original Captain America. The only real differences were WWII vs WWI and the gender of the lead character. Both even ended with a guy named Steve crash landing a plane in the ocean to save the world. I guess if you're going to rip off a Marvel movie, picking a Cap movie is a solid choice (they were all good) but it was still a pretty blatant rip-off.
Thanks for the recommendation, will definitely check it out. I went to Action Park 3 or 4 times over a few summers, and that place was crazy fun, though coming home with a few bumps and bruises was par for the course.
TAMUI do know, Newsie is right on you knowing ball.
Limited Series/one season:"Unbelievable" (Netflix) was very good.It was up there with "Seven Seconds" and "The Night of" in a similar limited series category that I enjoyed."Collateral" (Netflix) was pretty good. It had potential for a bit more development as it was limited to four episodes.
For those with access to HBO, “The Night Of” is absolutely worth checking out. It was written by Richard Price, a great crime author who also wrote a few episodes of The Wire.
More importantly it’s a Riz Ahmed vehicle. He’s not one with a prolific filmography, but he’s pretty much Must Watch material. He’s unreal in it
Limited Series/one season:"Unbelievable" (Netflix) was very good.
Yes, he was terrific. And of course it also had the always excellent John Turturro, one of the best and most underrated character actors of this generation.If there’s one thing HBO shows do right, it’s casting.
A huge part of that is they definitely have a "it aint broke, dont fix it" motto with their casting too. If you do really well with one role in a HBO show, youre very likely to book a more down the line.
Bridgerton, went in thinking I would get bored after an episode, actually quite enjoyed it and have been flying through the season.As a bonus, see how many pop songs you can recognize that are played with period appropriate instruments.
I will say, for a historical drama with real life characters, the volume of POC in court and with noble titles was pretty odd. And then making the Queen, who was an elderly German woman, into a younger black woman was strange. And then saying her becoming queen opened the door for all the POC in noble circles was just very forced for me. I supposed Shonda Rhimes is trying to create a message, but it’s not like GoT in a fantasy mythical world. It’s taking place in a very real place and time that was pretty damn racist
