Do any animals die or get violently attacked? I love those shows but hate those parts

Halfway through the first episode and so far no except if you feel bad for mackerel

But they show a flamingo baby doomed because of huge pink leggings made of salt

There’s a sequence in episode 2 or 3 of a bunch of walruses falling off cliffs to their deaths that’s a bummer.

I’m on episode 4 and I don’t remember the last show that had me going “What the gently caress?!!!!” As often as Our Planet

The bird doing his courtship dance routines was like :psyduck: :unsmith:

Existenz is a good movie. I bought the DVD when it came out and at the top of the cover it has a reviewer quote “Makes The Matrix look like child’s play”

The two films have nothing in common but whatever

The Ted Bundy Netflix movie was a lot better than I was expecting

I just finished Black Summer and my disbelief was working until the final episode where civilians are wildly firing guns at close range with pandemonium going on and only the zombies get killed

Requiem For a Dream is like Happiness where I’m like gently caress that’s a great film but can’t recommend any friends watch it

Excalibur is on Starz, does that qualify for this thread? It's ridiculously good, I can't believe I waited this long to see it.

I remember seeing this as a VHS rental in 1983 or so and my impressions as a 16 year old were

1. This movie rules
2. Naked Helen Mirren really rules

i just finished watching the leftovers and hands down that is probably in the top 5 of my favorite tv shows ive ever seen

I really hope it comes to Prime or Netflix

All I know about it is the premise and it has Christopher Eccleston so I’m sold

Y’all should check out Arctic on Prime it’s great.

Yeah I started this the other day and it’s really good so far. Would have watched it all by now but trying to finish Mindhunter season 2 which has its moments but has been a serious slog

Started watching Mission Impossible: Fallout

I’ve only seen the first two and the second one had me going “enough with the loving masks”

20 minutes into the new one - oh gently caress it was a guy wearing a mask!

It’s been said before but World War Z could have potentially been a good Netflix or Prime series with each episode dealing with a chapter in the book (except for the shut in Japanese kid one)

No joke I had to google him because I was like “The loving drummer from Weezer is an actor?”

What'd the consensus end up being on El Camino? Despite loving Vince Gilligan I've had less than zero desire to watch it

It doesn't add a whole lot but I enjoyed it. You get more Badger and Skinny Pete plus some good :wtf: Todd stuff

It must be a paperwork nightmare that so many old people named "John" went by "Jack"

I've never understood the reasoning behind it either

I imagine it’s from a kid being John Jr. so Jack was a nickname the mom would yell and the kid would know he’s in trouble not Dad

Edit: Wikipedia says it’s a diminutive form of John so kinda yeah

I saw Pulp Fiction in the theater when it came out and two seats away was a girl who’d seen it before and kept telling her friend what was about to happen. loving ruined it for me.

My absolute best theater experience in terms of the crowd reactions was seeing Aliens on opening night in 1986. And The Thing on opening night in 1982
