I dropped HBO but I could pick up Netflix long enough to watch season 4.
It's only a movie, C. You could have switched out to something else you know.
Did you forget the part where my wife wanted to watch that movie?
True, I could have left the room and in retrospect, I wish that I had.
Limey's Brian? Really?
Watched season 5 of Black Mirror. Only three episodes; one was very good IMO but the other two range between terrible and terrible ^2. The second episode was a clear knock- off of 'Facebook' and the very well done.
It seems like they are produced in different parts of the world with this year's episode 1 and 3 being American and episode 2 being English. Looks like the Limeys carried the day on this season while the American episodes were about as bad as I have seen
Well, glad I dropped Netflix Streaming weeks ago, then. How is 3 episodes a "season", anyway? Of the original stuff, some was fantastic, others so-so, but overall it was very entertaining. When I reactivate in late Summer, I will check it out, though.
* Meanwhile, I watched "Chernobyl" (sp?) 5-hour miniseries on HBO. It was quite good. "A"
* Also watched Sneaky Pete (binge watched all 30 hours) from Amazon. It was entertaining. First season was best and went downhill the next two. Overall it was a "B".
* Also watched the new Mary Poppins Returns movie last night. Her (Poppins) acting was contrived and accent forced and poor, but her singing, and the music, and animation were all fantastic. Choreography and cinematography were good. Story was so-so, too much redo and not enough new ground. Thought the "pants wearing" of the sister was kinda stupid. Lamplighter did well, as did the children. VanDyke over-acted his small part. The father was too passive and couldn't stand his [thankfully limited] singing. Overall, a "C", maybe C+.
As to the new Mary Poppins having a forced accent, I find that surprising because Emily Blunt really is English (or as Jim would say, a 'Limey' ) so her accent should be natural. ?? I have not seen the movie, just saying that I am surprised.
I wonder if she is related to MOB?
My wife and I went out to the theater to see Ad Astra last weekend.
We were VERY disappointed. Visually is was gorgeous to watch but the story line was so thin and totally boring! I almost fell asleep a couple of times.
Don't bother with this one at the theater, wait for it be available to stream. That way you can sleep on your own couch.
Who knew that Saturn and Jupiter were THAT close to each other?
