My hearing isn't great and it seems like there are 14 different characters named Ethel Fred. I spend a lot of time trying to figure out whether they're talking about. But it helped a lot when they killed one of them! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShocksMyBrain 9,776 Posted April 13, 2022 Author Share Posted April 13, 2022 I can’t watch trailers to anything anymore. Unless it’s just a teaser, but a 1-2 minute trailer will spoil the whole damn thing for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AUBwins 10,281 Posted April 15, 2022 Share Posted April 15, 2022 Moon knight is fantastic and compelling. Only wish it was on a binging service like Netflix so I can watch it all now lol. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raiders, Back to the Future, etc. All the superlatives. I can't think of many (any?) other properties that have reminded me of that era of films like this does. Which is not to say it's nostalgic or derivative at all. It's not, or at least it's not to me. I don't have deep familiarity with Marvel IP like a lot of folks do, so it doesn't go against any preconceived notions of what it should be or call back to things I've already seen done. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does feel like Indiana Jones in a way. It's a series that feels like a movie. I think having Ethan Hawke is adding a lot to that notion. He's a known great adventure movie character. But you're right, it's hitting like those epic movies from yesteryear with the storytelling. I too never knew of Moon Knight so everything is a surprise. I may have to go watch the Indiana Jones series again on DVD now. Lol I actually have all the back to future as well haha Edited April 15, 2022 by AUBwins 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nah, you're right. Oscar Issac does a great job with his dual role, too. Great pacing, just the right balance of darkness and levity, a little bit of blood but not too much, it looks great and uncluttered and isn't just CGI overload, a very compelling story like you said with sympathetic characters, great score... it's all the stuff. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AUBwins 10,281 Posted April 15, 2022 Share Posted April 15, 2022 I also watched He-Man Masters of the Universe Revelation on Netflix. He-man was one of my first childhood heroes on TV. That and ThunderCats hehe. I was into it. Good remake. PG rating is about right. It's a bit tamer than the other anime like Castlevania and Arcane. Just a little on the blood violence and an adult word or two but something older kids could watch. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnnyAU 3,745 Posted April 21, 2022 Share Posted April 21, 2022 Anyone tried Severance or Outer Range? Severance kept me watching, but it can be a bit weird. Outer Range looks pretty good so far. Josh Brolin is great in most everything I've seen him in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree about Brolin and the premise is really interesting so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McLoofus 35,182 Posted April 22, 2022 Share Posted April 22, 2022 Looking forward to S2 of The Flight Attendant. S1 was fantastic. I never had any interest in Big Bang Theory guy but Kaley Cuoco is a force. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AURex 2,262 Posted April 28, 2022 Share Posted April 28, 2022 Personally, I'm all in for "800 Words" and "My Name Is Murder" and "Secret City" on Acorn. Plus thew Britbox series "Dr Foster" etc. IMO Netflix is tanking. The only decent program they've had lately is "Cursed" and they cancelled that.

AURex 2,262 Posted April 28, 2022 Share Posted April 28, 2022 Cancelled Netflix, just like 200,000 other subscribers. Netflix continues raising subscription cost and there's nothing but crappy Ryan Reynolds movies and a big bunch of series that are so mediocre they are cancelled after one year. Goodbye Netflix.
