  1. These images seem like they should be in a sci-fi movie.
  2. This. Was. AWESOME. Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk
  3. A.P Bio is worth a look if you're looking for some light entertainment after the hardcore awesomeness that is Altered Carbon. http://www.isobo8.com/pic/uploadimg/2018-2/11999.jpg
  4. I really hope you enjoy it. I loved it. Saw quite a few negative critic reviews, but what made me laugh is how many of them talk about the nudity. Apparently, you can break bones and bathe in blood, but the moment there are boobs, butts or balls you've gone too far. Glad to see us mere mortals are ignoring the critics, as after 5,000 user reviews on IMDB it has a solid 87% approval rating.
  5. I closed the curtains. It's now officially evening in Centurion. Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk
  6. Just finished episode 2 of Altered Carbon and freaking loving it. Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk
  7. Yeah, I watched quite a few episodes but the longer I watched the more I found myself losing interest and spending time on my phone. On the other hand: Tonight Altered Carbon starts on Netflix!
  8. Yes, pretty much. Some weird vibes but nothing obvious. Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk
  9. Not kidding. This is me today. I've had to fish two of them out of my bath this morning. Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk
  10. You're a season or two behind
  11. Since we're on homegrown talent with a poultry theme.
  12. Get Out (2017) 8/10. I didn't want to watch it when it first came out because I'm not really into horrors and I'm a bit tired of the black/white thing and I suspected it was going to be you one of those nihilistic movies so determined to make a political point it would lose any chance of being entertaining. Boy, was I glad to be proven wrong.
  13. As for which TV show I'd want to be in: Westworld comes to mind. You're an immortal gunslinger. You can screw, drink and kill to your heart's content and go on as many adventures as you desire. I would like to know what other virtual worlds they have to offer, though. Any chance they have a Lord of the Rings world where you can become a sorcerer? Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk
  14. I'm about one episode away from dropping Vikings. The characters' actions are starting to make less and less sense and while the action is still fun to watch, most of the time results are inconclusive at best. Might be better to drop it while I still have fond memories of it. Will watch the first few episodes after the break before I make up my mind. Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk
  15. The Last Jedi (2017) 7/10. For space fantasy it wasn't bad, lots of laughs and some pretty special effects. But it has plot holes large enough to drive a truck through and it's getting harder and harder to find the 'science' in the science fiction part. A fun, forgettable 7/10.
  16. Yeah, the ending caught me by surprise and left me feeling somewhat unsatisfied as well, but in the context of the movie it did make sense. Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk
  17. Sunday roast. My best attempt yet, I think.
  18. Accident Man (2018) 7/10. Scott Adkins, Ray Stevenson and Michael Jai White. Pure fun. A B-grade movie with extra cheese that is entertaining as hell, with non-stop action and characters straight out of a 90s comic book. I'm not kidding, Accident Man was created by Pat Mills, the 'godfather of British comics' in the early 90s, long before Statham and The Mechanic came along. Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk
  19. It just felt like a "by the numbers" movie. It's not bad, but all of them have made movies with more heart. Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk
  20. The Post (2017) 6/10. Supremely unimpressed. Good cast, good story, good director and a movie that made me wonder why the hell I was wasting my time. I saw one critic describe it a "stodgy" and "unimaginative" and I couldn't agree more. Meryl Streep had one good scene so good for her, I guess, but nearly everyone else (including Tom Hanks) could have been replaced and it would have made no difference.
  21. Why, Burger Bistro, why?
  22. Enjoy the weekend, everyone. Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk
  23. Man, Hugh Masekela and Ursula K. LeGuin on the same day. That hurts. It is good to see the outpouring of love, though, for both of them and from so many people.
  24. Watched the first episode of this last night. Will depend on where they go with it, but sign me up for now.
  25. Well, today it can only be this one.
