veloman Posted May 21, 2021 Share Posted May 21, 2021 "Pan's Labyrinth" on this afternoon. Very interesting film IMO - even though I don't speak Spanish. A very dark allegory. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sherry Palmer also has to be up there for one of the most obnoxious tv characters around. The years haven't been kind, the plot is demonstrably stupid, the president has the worst choice of cabinet ( and as west wing fans, the comparisons in how the response to the events is carried out do it no favours I suppose ), kate warner's prolonged vacant stares, and dumb-ass decision making simply to expedite the drama and the cliffhangers is just sensationally ridiculous. Love watching it though Such wonderfully compelling nonsense. 24, that takes me back. Used to get called downstairs from the bedroom to watch this must-watch event-TV show each week, back when there were only 5 channels. Even as a teenager I recognised what complete nonsense it was, but it had a certain relentless momentum that kept me engaged, all the way up to the point when he evades the consequences of a nuclear **** holocaust by crouching down and hiding behind a rock, at which point I was like Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Almost half a year between starting it and finding out the ending. That would drive me insane these days. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've still got the last episode to watch but yes it has been a brilliant series, a lot of it down to Mike. It looks like they've already recorded the next series, they are really churning them out for Channel 4. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She said she watched episode 8 and 9. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villa4europe Posted May 22, 2021 Share Posted May 22, 2021 Finished the flight attendant after comments here, really not what I was expecting and thoroughly enjoyed it, she tip toed the line at times but just about got away with it Spoiler The simple answer right in your face and all the problems go away... But you're an alcoholic so let's have you drink again and make yourself more problems again to keep the story going again... It came close to bad writing at times Also half way through invincible which is excellent And about 6 or 7 episodes in to love death and robots season 2, thought the opening episode was a weird choice as its been probably the weakest so far, it's the same as the last series in that it's a proper mixed bag, maybe slightly better but hard to tell as I think it's throwaway TV 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wazzap24 Posted May 23, 2021 Share Posted May 23, 2021 My recent decent. Flight attendant - good Resident Alien - very good Mare of Easttown - very good The Nevers - very good, so far. The Terror - good Godfather of Harlem - amazing Frank of Ireland - hilarious The Grinder - equally hilarious 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PieFacE Posted May 24, 2021 VT Supporter Share Posted May 24, 2021 Mythic Quest is so bad and it's such a shame. Was hoping S2 would get better but it really isn't. No idea how the IASIP writers have created something so unfunny. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
