KC Posted January 25, 2022 Share Posted January 25, 2022 I couldn't stand to watch him before that. Didn't realise there was a third series out, probably binge watch it one night. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't realise there was a third series out, probably binge watch it one night. I always hated him and then one day it dawned on me that I'd never watched anything of his I used to see him getting hyped in the media so automatically gave him a wide berth, which is kind of my default, and why I've never seen ET, Star Wars, Star Trek movies (insert endless list of hyped up stuff) and then I watched the first season of afterlife now I think I've pretty much caught up with everything he's done, and I retract my initial perception 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
j.o.i.n.t Posted January 27, 2022 Share Posted January 27, 2022 (edited) "My Octopus Teacher" Netflix. Lovely programme, really lovely. Some burned out bloke [who, of course, happens to make films] that retreats to the ocean, daily, and forms a relationship with a wild octopus. For good half an hour afterwards I couldn't have eaten one. It's that good. Thought provoking. Edited January 27, 2022 by j.o.i.n.t 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larry Badgeley Posted January 30, 2022 Share Posted January 30, 2022 We're a couple in on the new Series of Afterlife. We both love it so will finish it off this week. Watched all of series 4 of Ozark. . Whilst we got on with the first 3 series, I reckon they will stretch it out for another. A mistake if they do. It will get far too ridiculous. Like Dexter.

Love it, we watched the first couple this afternoon, certainly lives up to the first two series. The new miserable bitch in the office is a class addition to the cast... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boojum Posted January 30, 2022 Author Share Posted January 30, 2022 (edited) The Millennium series (The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo, Kicked The Hornet's Nest & Played With Fire) is on the BBC iPlayer at the moment. Expanded versions of the original Swedish movies. So much better than the Hollywood movie versions. The books were better (obviously) but Noomi Rapace IS Lisbeth Salander Edited January 30, 2022 by Boojum 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B0bbyBuds Posted February 13, 2022 Share Posted February 13, 2022 Seems like everyone had the opposite view on the afterlife started watching Oz. Watched one season so far. It’s pretty long but interesting and lots of different stories going on. A lot of familiar faces. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember J K Simmons really making an impression on me in Oz as the neo-Nazi leader, one of the nastiest, scariest cunts in TV long before he (deservedly) won an oscar for Whiplash. Top actor (also thought he was good as Dr Skoda in Law and Order, but that means I've got to confess I'm a Law and Order Fan - NOT any of the ridiculous spin-offs, just the classic with Jerry Orbach as Lennie Briscoe and Sam Waterston as Jack McCoy). I'm currently watching The Promise on the iPlayer. French crime drama, I'm up to episode 3 and enjoying it (well enjoying is the wrong word, you don't enjoy dramas about abducted kids but you know what I mean, engaged by it or whatever).

Dodgee Posted February 15, 2022 Share Posted February 15, 2022 I binged Reacher on prime the other night. I enjoyed it, the plot stuck to the book and the actor who played the lead was a much better casting than in the film. I don't know who thought it was a good idea to cast Tom short arse Cruise as a character who is meant to stand 6'4 but they need a dry slap A good watch for any Lee Child fans anyway. Looking forward to the next series now 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
