Netflix and Amazon reviews

Your memory is fine BB except the pig was very much alive

[Zimmerman]

Very harsh... I love his wipe stuff (and Cunk).

I loved pretty much all the episodes.. but these are worth dabbling with as for me I found them remarkably poignant and worryingly close to reality (close enough that you could see it happening without being a million miles away from where we are now).

Series 3 Ep 1
Series 3 Ep 3
Series 3 Ep 5 (although this gets low IMDb mark)
Series 3 Ep 6

Series 4 Ep 2

Series 3 Ep 5 I like because, rather than it being a possible future state (and it could be), it’s also a metaphor for reality today. That’s not to sound pretentious don’t won’t to give any spoilers though (hence talking in riddles)!

3rd season of The Last Kingdom has arrived on Netflix

Uhtred and old school Viking doings - brexit propaganda?

[Zimmerman]

There’s a new 90min black mirror movie out tomorrow (28/12).

Bandersnatch

Your memory is fine BB except the pig was very much alive

Maybe I assumed it was to be killed before being "Camewonged", as if they weren't aware of the event.

And how did he not have to resign for Bestiality, with bod without necrophilia tossed in? Especially after the waistcoat hooliganism!

Just started watching and hooked

[jimwinn]

Glad you're the enjoying the old Viking romp Suzy

If you like that you could go for other historical bloodshed like Ironclad, Centurian or The Outlaw King

[blahblah]

Am I right in thinking that Netflix has more 4k\uhd content than Amazon and better stuff? I prefer Arthouse (for want of a better word) to mainstream, especially US drivel.

[Zimmerman]

Any of you using SkyQ to access Netflix.

Haven’t been able to open the app all weekend.
Can’t recall last time I tried anything (must be within last 7 days I’d guess).

Can’t find anything on google.

[blahblah]

You have turned the Box and Router on and off?

Obvious I know but.....

[jimwinn]

Enjoyed watching the first episode of Nightflyers on Netflix

A cert 15 version of Event Horizon ☺

Hopefully the next 9 episodes will keep up the promising storyline

who is watching KINGDOM (Korean Zombie Film)?

[unc.si.]

I see that Narcos Mexico is on Netflix now. Not started yet - anyone seen it?

Looks like its about the Guadalajara cartel, so plenty of scope for more seasons yet.

It's good.... mixture as before, and even some cameos from Pablo Escobar and co...

[Zimmerman]

Anybody watched the Fyre Festival documentary.

It’s a staggering story. Fascinating and unbelievable in equal measure. Says a lot about our glorious society.

[blahblah]

Is that the one that never was and made a few people a fair whack of cash?

[Zimmerman]

Yep, the documentary (should be pointed out, the Netflix one is made by some of the people involved in said festival). But it really is spectacular.

It doesn’t appear that he was purposely setting out to rip people off... but I haven’t got to the end yet.

There is a second, less biased (allegedly), documentary which is supposed to be better.

[Zimmerman]

Yes, available on an American network. Not sure if anyone does the old downloading stuff now

The Umbrella Academy

https://www.netflix.com/watch/81021389? ... ILER_WATCH

This looks alright, starting on 15th Feb...

[jimwinn]

Howl is a no nonsense werewolf movie doing the rounds on Amazon Prime

It's Dog Soldiers on a train with Sean Pertwee again

One reviewer called it the companion movie to Dog Soldiers

Not as wondrous as DS but still a blast

8/10

'delays due to werewolves on the line'

Umbrella Academy

What's not to like?

Outstanding

The Domestics

Post-apocalypse survival horror

Not original but we'll done all the same

7/10

'The Purge meets Mad Max'

[Zimmerman]

Finished (got up to date) with The Good Place a good little series. I think with the third series its starting to be less enjoyable and effectively they are now just repeating storylines So a 4th may be a step too far. But definitely worth a watch if you just want a lighthearted comedic stroll.

[Zimmerman]

Started Dirty John. Only two episodes in, so far so good. About a wealthy middle aged woman with a string of husbands behind her, getting involved with a manipulative psycho. Loosely based on a true story.

[Knulpuk]

Ozark has my attention at the moment. Plot not a million miles away from Breaking bad. Peter Mullen turning up as a redneck took a double take!

the Steven Avery documentary is worth a watch (Making of a murderer?).

[Zimmerman]

The Sinner (season 2)... worth a watch. Better than S1 for me. Entirely new story and characters (apart from the main cop) - still relies on him wanting to solve an open and shut case

[jimwinn]

It's on the My Shows thing Zim along with the 2nd series of The Punisher

Nearly finished The Umbrella Academy - wow

[blahblah]

The Sinner (season 2)... worth a watch. Better than S1 for me. Entirely new story and characters (apart from the main cop) - still relies on him wanting to solve an open and shut case

I'll give it a bash over the weekend. I liked S1, but 2 seemed too samey re a Cop after the truth rather than someone who could be convicted...

re Dear John: I watched the first few and the similar Seduced (film\movie) was far better as I doubt there is the mileage\minutage in the story for a series, but I think there is a Dear John movie on Netflix? (My big issue with the first few Episodes was the daughter saying he was a bad'un etc, not to mention the overdone nurse thing)

Sex Education was surprisingly funny and engaging

[jacksosi]

Umbrella Academy

Dark and quirky, flawed superheroes.
