    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

    Promising Young Woman - Interesting film. I think it's really intended for a female audience, but I thought it was entertaining anyway, the lead actor sold it well.

    Supervillain, the making of Takashi 6×9. Not a fan of his, but this is an interesting documentary.

    The Terror, period drama slash slow horror burner about two ships on the Arctic in the 1850s. Four episodes in I'd give this 3 out of 5 stars.

    I watched all of Downton Abbey for the first time over the last two weeks or so. Addictive. Now I need to get my hands on the follow up movie.

    I watched a few episodes of The Terror. Slow going so I gave upon it.

    Watching Kolchak:The Night Stalker. A sci fi/supernatural series lasted one season in 1974/75. But has cult following and influenced other sci fi series over the years. Starring Darren McGavin, great actor in the lead role.
