Obliterated on Neflix. First 30min is kinda lame but after that it gets good and pretty funny. I'm 4 episodes in and it's been entertaining.

Absolutely agree. We watched 4 episodes yesterday, and the first scene got me groaning. But after that, OMG, hilarious scenes, and probably my top pick for mindless entertainment in a long time with their fresh perspective on the genre. Viewer discretion very much advised, though - although it warns of nudity and sex scenes, some of them may as well be on pornhub.

OK I'll try it again... I got 45 min in and removed it from my watch list.
Seemed like a really weak script.

I'd classify it as a comedy with some action thrown in rather than action with some comedy. And they labelled it right with "raunchy". You need to embrace the ridiculousness.

On my radar too.

So much Godzilla stuff in the works, it weird how that happens with multiple studios doing similar work at the same time.
There is Monarch Legacy of Monsters
Godilla minus one
and now Godzilla and Kong face scar king

Same ... always liked the vigilante ass-kicker type taking out the bad guys.

Looking forward to:

This guy plays the role so much better then cruise, he's got some serious presence on screen. Going to miss his bad ass love interest from the first season though.

From the character sketches that I've read, Reacher is supposed to be a walking wall of a man. That just isn't Cruise.

Decided to watch "Halo" now that Paramount+ has put the first season up on their Youtube channel. I don't play video games but even I find it odd that they show Master Chief's face so much. I had the impression that it was kind of a Judge Dredd thing that he never shows his face in the game. Not bad, though.

Looks good

I watch Tacoma FD... not too may shows more ridiculous than that

But I will try it again.. I got sidetracked last night and watched all 4 episodes of "All the Light We Cannot See". Great series. If you have NetFlix watch this.

Despite detesting the choice of actor to play the queen the production values are good and I like the actor for Diana and only 4 episodes.

not bad so far.
Thought it was well done....obviously some creative licence but not intrusive.....casting for the queen still an irritant.
Phillip , Camilla, Diana and Charles and the princes all well cast IMNSHO
Not sure what the fuss was about. Decent 4k feed.

Looking forward to:

The first season was fantastic and I’m looking forward to new season.

Tom Cruise is not Reacher. And the books are unfortunately very repetitive even though the settings are different.

 

[MacDoc]

Noticed this on Netflix....highly recommended

Now on to the Reacher stuff.
Hmmmm got the trailer for the new season but no Episode

Reacher is Dec 15th release I believe.

 

[MacDoc]

Thanks for that

Wow....slow burn.....terrific production values and I have no idea where it is going. The young girl is a marvel and nice to see Bobbi from The Expanse looking gorgeous
.....very Australian feel to the story...might tackle the book. Sigourney Weaver in a good role.

stuff I had not seen from the get go and colourized.

Anyone still keeping up with house of dragon? I watched a couple of episodes initially but it was such a disappointment compared to the OG Game of thrones...

Keep at it. It does get better, good content but lower your expectations.

Took me twice to get through it.

There was a tough age twist early on in Dragons that I thought was off a bit and would have liked to see more of the younger protagonist
and her relationship with Matt Smiith.
Wasn't sure of the casting for him but turned out well......he certainly can be dynamic at times.
