No that would be The Kentucky Derby is Decadent and Depraved. I did thoroughly enjoy the article though. Alec Eiffel posted:About to watch the Suspiria reimagining (Prime).

Blind Rasputin posted:How is this show Colony on Netflix? I’m on ep 2 and it seems ok. Gosh I just need a good well produced semi-sci fi adventure action drama show. I’ve watched OA and most many mainstream things. Any recs for shoes that may have flown a bit under the radar? Travelers was pretty decent. Everyone who told me Person of Interest was going to be amazing was wrong. That show didn't get much better even when it finally got out of procedural mode and killed off that cop who couldn't act her way out of a paper bag. I only finished it hoping this "best sci fi show ever made" would somehow appear at the end. It never did.

Rim of the World You know those movies where you're 20 minutes in and you think, "Ok rough start, but it's going to get better any minute now". Then another 15 minutes go by and you're still thinking, "Ok, there's still promise here, any minute now it will get better". Spoiler, it never gets better. I can put up with some baaaaaad movies if there's an alien invasion happening (still enjoy Battle: LA), but this one is not worth your time.

Think I'm getting old. 4 eps in and The Boys is just okay so far. Certainly not worthy of the gushing praise it's been getting. I just finished a rewatch of Deadwood though, so maybe it's not fair to put a superhero show up against writing of that quality. The Spice Girls pep talk made me roll my eyes. The writer thought they were just sooooo clever.

nate fisher posted:Maybe if you said, people who don’t like big sprawling books stay away from it instead of telling everyone stay away from it? I understand some people just don’t like books that are more than 500 pages. That said I was fine with the length, and Simmons kept me engaged. Funny I read the book when it originally came out in hardback, but I still have yet to watch the series. I plan to correct that before Halloween. Yeah Summer of Night is really good. I read it last year and was amazed I'd never heard of it.

Watched Timetrap on a whim on Netflix. Surprisingly enjoyable, if a bit cheesy at parts. If you like the time travel genre you might enjoy it. It has some cool ideas.

Watched Head Count. Surprisingly good psychological thriller/horror. I'd skip the trailer and just go blind. My only complaint is the end, wish it had just stayed a slow burn.

Ammanas posted:Really? I thought it was incredibly dull and didn't reward viewers with its sluggish pace. The idea was fine and there are 2 interesting moments in the film, the rest is just a slog of idiot assholes. Ending was lazy but otherwise thought it was a great slow burn. I'm a sucker for atmospheric horror though, I loved Mike Flanagan's Absentia when I saw it and that was similarly roasted on here.

New season of Jack Ryan was so loving stupid. A daylight helicopter assault on the presidential palace of a sovereign nation? Jack Ryan beating a head of state? The grand conspiracy was Venezuela mining its own natural resources? The too obvious last minute reveal that the senator was in on it the whole time. . I think I'll pass on Season 3. Such lazy writing.

rich thick and creamy posted:Looking through Prime and I think I'll make it a Ken Russell appreciation night. They got Lair of the White Worm and Salome's Last Dance! They also got Gothic yet I always saw that vhs on the shelf at the rental store back in the day but there was always something else I wanted to watch more so it stayed put. Honestly, I still can't muster the interest. Lair of the White Worm is so weird. I love it.

Class Warcraft posted:I watched the movie Prospect on hulu. It's about a low budget sci-fi movie about a father-daughter team that land on a dangerous gold-rush world to try and make it rich. It's got a really cool atmosphere and uses a clunky 70's tech aesthetic similar to what you'd see in Alien. Anyway, it's pretty gritty and really more of a space western than a sci-fi movie. Also it has Pedro Pascal in it. Would recommend. Yup its awesome. Killer soundtrack as well. I always recommend it.

wormil posted:Who the gently caress is Patrick Wilson. Rhetorical. I looked him up and he's some b-movie actor. The only thing I've seen with him in a significant role is that tall grass movie and I couldn't tell you which character he played if you put a gun to my head. Budget Bradley Cooper. I usually dislike him in anything he's in, but I watched The Conjuring not long ago and my opinion of him is shifting.

flatluigi posted:I want a good well constructed murder mystery show on Netflix to binge, any recs? I watched all of poirot when it was on the service and had just started on Columbo when that left. Corniness is fine if they still keep things reasonably interesting mystery-wise (I also wish Murder She Wrote was still up) but I don't especially want procedurals (Criminal Minds is so mediocre that I watched almost the entire run a few years ago and I couldn't tell you the names of any characters) and I really don't like gore (Hannibal and Bones are too much for me) Can't believe none of yall are suggesting Longmire. Aside from the usual, " how many loving murders take place in a town of 250 people?" problem it's quite good.
