What are you watching?

Yeah I watched it too and really enjoyed it. The club night up in Watford/Edmonton/wherever looked insane. Not very Balearic :joy:

:grinning:surely a 10 min Tears for Fears remix would’ve gone down a storm(zy)…??!

Watched and enjoyed that the other day, nice to see the white room in a decent print, first time I have managed to sit through the whole thing. I may have to go through the extras tonight.

Few things I’ve enjoyed recently:

Loki, Season 2. Disney+

I have barely any idea whats going on, but it looks fantastic and has a great cast with a clever plot and an emotional finale thats better than the usual Marvel fare

Time. iPlayer

This second prison drama from Jimmy McGovern focuses on a womens prison. Pretty hard hitting stuff and not an easy watch at times. Great cast though, Bella Ramsey steals it as a teenage heroin addidt

Sly. Netflix

Stallone is still taking on Arnie in this rival biopic. Its not as good as the Schwarzenneger doc or as long, but there is some good insight into how the Rocky films were developed

Watched Time last night, really enjoyed it. You’re spot on saying Bella Ramsey steals it playing Kelsey, absolutely brilliant performance.

Watched The Killer last night on netflix, new one by David Fincher, starring Michael Fassbender as a Smiths loving, nihilistic hired assassin hunting down and taking revenge on his former employers after a job goes wrong.
Looks great and doesn’t outstay it’s welcome too much at just under 2 hrs but I was a bit underwhelmed by it considering Fincher’s track record, it’s mainly Fassbender onscreen and he’s a bit of a charisma free dullard cosidering that he’s a globe trotting badass gun for hire, didn’t really like the ending either.

Absolutely, properly disappointing considering the ‘talent’ involved, did think Mr Fassbender was perfectly suited to playing an android devoid of a personality on Prometheus tho!

Not just me then!
Yep, a very blank, android like, emotionless performance.
I kept waiting for it to really get going but it didn’t happen, the fight scene was decent but the Tilda Swinton scene was a let down & the ending just seemed inconsistent & flat.

I was going to watch it later. Doesn’t sound great though!

I’d say give it a go, I was just underwhelmed because i expected it to be better with the talent involved.

Agree with the comments on The Killer. Just watched it, bit of a let down.

Messing around with synths and other things with this on in the background

Same.

And I wasn’t expecting much!

It literally just ran out of steam for me. Shame really. I generally enjoy Fincher’s work. Zodiac is one of my fave films.
