I'm going to start Flack tonight. I'm not sure if I want it to be more or less trashy than the trailer makes it look.

Just starting to watch The Expanse. Two episodes in and lots of story lines. Seems entertaining though. Keep going?

that's not my post, Wednesday, 27 January 2021 19:23 (three years ago) link

YES IT RULES

I have low expectations, but I'm all in for Willow. For some reason I ended up getting a novelization of the movie about two months before I finally saw the thing and fell for it so hard. I was always annoyed my friends weren't as into it as I was. Was happy that my son really liked it when we watched it early on in the pandemic.

I'm all in on Willow too, lotsa childhood love for that one

I think it took til ep 3 or 4 to really hook me on The Expanse.

DJI, Wednesday, 27 January 2021 20:25 (three years ago) link

We tried The Expanse as a show to watch together, but my wife thought the first ep was really boring and didn't want to continue, so I think I need to make that a show I watch on my own (though part of me wants to read the books first).

soaring skrrrtpeggios (jon /via/ chi 2.0), Wednesday, 27 January 2021 20:27 (three years ago) link

First ep was really clunky but it massively improves and is one of the best shows around at the moment

thank u thread for recommending patriot

adam, Wednesday, 27 January 2021 20:55 (three years ago) link

xposts, thanks, will push on. my wife (who admittedly has low tolerance for SF) bailed after first episode.

that's not my post, Wednesday, 27 January 2021 20:57 (three years ago) link

So did mine! But now she is now super into it (after I asked he to give it one more chance).

what part of EXPANSE RULES dont u understand jeez

:D

terminators of endearment (VegemiteGrrl), Wednesday, 27 January 2021 21:45 (three years ago) link

My wife similarly was nonplussed by the Expanse leaving it as a show I'd have to watcgh on my own, but I actually hate watching TV by myself so it's unlikely I'll ever get around to it unless we wind up in quarantine for another full year and I go truly mad.

Did three episodes of Flack last night. Wasn't quite convinced at first but it's pretty good.

akm, Wednesday, 27 January 2021 22:08 (three years ago) link

I've watched something between the first 0.5 and 1.5 episodes of the Expanse like 3 times and haven't gotten up the momentum to actually watch it, but people sure do like it.

Watched part of ep 1 of Flack while doing dishes, seems enjoyably frothy though no more than that.

ps if I am left kind of cold by first half of first ep of Patriot should I keep watching? Can somebody give me a sense of what kind of show it actually is?

Have watched a few Brockmires and can't tell whether I actually like it or just like the voice he does

Guayaquil (eephus!), Wednesday, 27 January 2021 22:19 (three years ago) link

yeah I tried the Expanse after the last time peeps here said I'd love it re babylon 5 and I bailed after 2 eps as well :/

Stoop Crone (Trayce), Wednesday, 27 January 2021 22:39 (three years ago) link

I have low expectations, but I'm all in for Willow.

We ended up rewatching it a few months ago -- at once a product of its time but kinda sweet nonetheless. (And a pretty great reminder that for all that the LOTR films are my gold standard, Willow did the business by actually HAVING a notable cast of actors of short stature.)

Ned Raggett, Wednesday, 27 January 2021 22:48 (three years ago) link

Willow is absolutely wonderful

And it looks absolutely incredible to this day

Qanondorf (darraghmac), Wednesday, 27 January 2021 23:00 (three years ago) link

Yeah, I was really glad my son liked it.

soaring skrrrtpeggios (jon /via/ chi 2.0), Wednesday, 27 January 2021 23:01 (three years ago) link

The thing with The Expanse is it starts out as a somewhat cheesy "space noir" detective show and rapidly (like, by the end of Season 1) becomes something very different. Take the ride.

but also fuck you (unperson), Wednesday, 27 January 2021 23:17 (three years ago) link

yeah lol i forgot how cliché the whole miller situation is at the start. v eye-rolling. but yeah it finds a different gear.

Li'l Brexit (Tracer Hand), Wednesday, 27 January 2021 23:29 (three years ago) link

We've blown through most of the first two seasons over the last couple of weeks. Good value space adventurin' imo. I also appreciate how deftly they handle a convoluted conceit. They kinda drop you into the deep end but after a couple episodes I've never had any trouble following the plot complications.

Li'l Brexit (Tracer Hand), Thursday, 28 January 2021 12:15 (three years ago) link

I know the disney brand doesnt mean anything anymore in terms of what type of "content" (love that word, feels good to use) one can expect from them, but that image really cemented it

stylish but illegal (Simon H.), Thursday, 28 January 2021 12:27 (three years ago) link

xpost Yeah, I think sic drummed that site into my head. Very useful!

The "Star" thing, is that just for non-US? A lot of those movies and shows on there are scattered over several streaming services here, sometimes *on* multiple streaming services, so I'm confused.

Josh in Chicago, Thursday, 28 January 2021 13:34 (three years ago) link

Yeah, I think it's basically just a rebranded Hulu for other countries. And I would assume, since every streaming service is playing musical chairs with their names atm, that American Hulu will be likewise rebranded at some point.

Vladislav Bibidonurtmi (Old Lunch), Thursday, 28 January 2021 13:37 (three years ago) link

Disney- ?

Josh in Chicago, Thursday, 28 January 2021 14:34 (three years ago) link

Buffy is currently on Prime over here (UK) at the moment - don't know if that means it's going to disappear from there next month?

(I know some older shows are available on Netflix and Prime at the same time so not always provider exclusives)

groovypanda, Thursday, 28 January 2021 14:58 (three years ago) link

Got through the first two episodes of Flack. I'll finish--only six episodes--but it's so bad. Alexander Mackendrick is rolling over in his grave.

clemenza, Thursday, 28 January 2021 15:01 (three years ago) link

the whining replies to that Disney+UK tweet are nuts.

That's the one where the terrorists take over the Rock and Roll hall of fame where Ringo Starr, Stevie Nicks, and Quincy Jones are being inducted right?

Finishing up S3 of Call My Agent. Fantastic, endearing cast. As a French film buff seeing the likes of old school stars like Françoise Fabian and Guy Marchand pop up and play themselves is a real thrill.

SQUIRREL MEAT!! (Capitaine Jay Vee), Monday, 8 February 2021 20:22 (three years ago) link

yeah fantastic show

Li'l Brexit (Tracer Hand), Monday, 8 February 2021 21:58 (three years ago) link

I found S4 of Call My Agent is a little disappointing though, despite Charlotte Gainsbourg and Sigourney Weaver doing great turns.

danzig, Monday, 8 February 2021 22:03 (three years ago) link

I ain’t there yet!

SQUIRREL MEAT!! (Capitaine Jay Vee), Monday, 8 February 2021 22:29 (three years ago) link

LOL that tweet had me going "OK Im getting a disney+ account now, fuckit". Went to their website, clicked on sign up for the current reduced price made sure it was the AU site... and it wont let me sign up, just gives me a login page.

Nice work Diznee
