    Tales from the loop, Prime, scifi. Pilot was intriguing. Good use of music.

    scifi about synthetic plants that have special olfactory capacities but can't reproduce/pollinate

    good use of colour palets (greens and reds mostly) and interesting ways of framing shots (zooming in on objects instead of people). most of the acting is a bit off. Don't know whether this was done on purpose but it adds to the feeling of distance between movie and viewer and as such works well with the colours and framing. some of the lines are a bit on the nose as in they are (short) exposition dumps

    the music throughout is remarkable with percussion, flutes and slightly disorienting zooming sounds

    wouldn't call it a must see but it is an interesting watch

    ^^^

    lol watched this with the gf on hulu.

    interesting concept, we both ended up falling asleep to it though.

    but the music was great for the film... especially the end credits.

    we started watching LOST. i watched it while it aired and stopped watching it because i was younger and it got way too stupid for me, and some of the characters were pissing me off with how annoying they were lolz.

    but figured id finally get around to giving it a full shake plus she was interested in it as well.

    about half way though the second season atm. i forget how far i got while it was originally airing but it was farther than i am now.

    Da 5 Bloods. Disappointing to me. Three different genres rolled into one (I didn't feel like it gelled) and overly long. The acting is great though.

    Sha this is pretty random but Thor Ragnarok was on the telly here yesterday. Jeff Goldblum was hilarious in it haha, he aced it. Ever seen the movie? This one was way better than the other two Thor movies. The second one was particularly dreary. Ragnarok brought the comedy

    ^ I heard that was good. I think I'm just way too jaded on superhero films at this point.

    Maybe I'll take a look at that one at some point.

    Dangerous Liaisons - Great actors. I still think Cruel Intentions is more entertaining.

    ^^I taped it from the BBC this week. I saw it with subs ages ago, now it's time to watch it again. And yes, Cruel Intentions was good too.

    After work I like to watch 'Ronnie O'Sullivan's American Hustle' (History Channel). The Rocket learns about American history and shoots pool with locals, visits some pool related factories.

    Super relaxing show. Too bad there's only a few eps. I saw Chicago and Memphis so far.

    simbasible.com has very solid movie reviews. it discusses movies both old (e.g. the forties) and new (e.g. John Wick 3). I like it for the old movies, to help me find something original to watch on streaming platforms
