Reekie_Red Posted March 26, 2023 Share Posted March 26, 2023 Absolutely loved Last Of Us. Arguably the best game adaptation yet. Pedro Pascal is good, Bella Ramsey is exceptional, and thr two of them together are so natural. There's times you forget it is a zombie series Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manc_don Posted April 2, 2023 Share Posted April 2, 2023 Watched the rescue on Disney, documentary about the Thai football team that were stuck in the cave. Mental stuff. Really good watch. Obviously remember the story at the time but wasn’t aware about all the detail. Only bad thing about the programme was the shite, cheesy (assuming American) music at the end of it.

I remember watching the Netflix series about that. The ideas that were being thrown around by the international community to save the team was just incredible, including the air capsules that I believe were supposed to house one kid at a time whilst a driver dragged them through the water Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently a PR stunt and then he called one of the rescue organisers a paedo . Held up in yank court as not being defamation, well, of course it would. what they ended up doing is no more crazy than the air pod idea mind. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

manc_don Posted June 25, 2023 Share Posted June 25, 2023 Been watching Barry (about a depressed “vet” now assassin) and fubar (very light hearted and quite 80s but amusing nonetheless). Have finally got round to catching up on the black mirror seasons I’ve missed. Wife isn’t a fan so it’s slow progress. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tlg1903 Posted August 29, 2023 Share Posted August 29, 2023 Anyone been watching ahsoka? I'm a big ol geek so it's right up my street and I'm huge fan of the shows predecessors the clone wars and rebels (ahsoka is actually rebels s5 but live action).

I liked that they used the first episode to catch people up who haven't seen the animated SW series. I've struggled with the animated series, indeed only got half way thru the first season of Clone Wars before I got bored. Enjoying Ahsoka, although nothing beats the first two seasons of Mando Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If yiu can't face it though you should defo watch rebels. It starts out with a fun sw cartoon vibe but that soon changes. Excellent plot and character development and it really hits you in the feels a few times. It's probably my favourite SW content these days 2bh and I've been waiting for ahsoka for a long time now.

manc_don Posted September 9, 2023 Share Posted September 9, 2023 Yellowstone. Excellent series although felt like the last one was a bit of a glorification of the cowboy wankfest. have started watching Kin, about and Irish crime family reekie, that one’s on TVNZ btw. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reekie_Red Posted September 9, 2023 Share Posted September 9, 2023 Been watching Guillarmo del Toro's "Cabinet of Curiosities" on Netflix. Quite a decent set of horror short stories about death and the darker side of life. Quite enjoying how the show doesn't need to explain why there's a 12 tentacled demon about to devour a guy ... there just is Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wokinginashearerwonderland Posted December 20, 2023 Share Posted December 20, 2023 So, interested to know if it was just me that wondered why thon english wifie goalie didna bother to get dressed for the sports personality of the year event? Surely bordering on the pornographic? Her mother must be so proud. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigAl Posted December 27, 2023 Share Posted December 27, 2023 Extremely late to the party but have just binge watched the first two series of Happy Valley. Don't think I will be moving to that area of Yorkshire any time soon Brutal stuff but compelling viewing and Sarah Lancashire is outstanding in the lead role.
