What are You Watching?

Just started watching Ken Burns' 'Prohibition' for the second time (only bought it last December) whilst rather appropriately sipping my first ever glass of Bulleit Frontier Bourbon.

Cheers chaps!

Condor. Missed it when it came out two years ago, and Bill Hurt is a favorite actor. Plus it deals in spying, espionage, murder, mayhem and a lethal virus! What more could you ask for? -OH, yeah, it's in 4K, that's what's more.

5/5.

Making my way through the first season of HBO's Deadwood. I shouldn't have waited so long to watch this one.

Deadwood is awesome.


I just watched The Lighthouse...and whoa, man. Kookookajoob crazy. I’m still figuring things out, but I’d feel safe calling that one a masterpiece. And it ended with one of my favorite Sea Shanties. You love me lobster, don’t ye?

I haven't watched it yet. But it's good to have something on the shelf to look forward too.

The Long Good Friday. I own it digitally but when I went to find the trailer on YouTube I found some kind soul has uploaded the entire movie (link below). It's a cult classic British gangster film from 1979 starring the late great Bob Hoskins, a young Pierce Brosnan before he started taking his vesper martini 'shaken not stirred," and the ever lovely Dame Helen Mirren.

If you liked Lock, Stock And Two Smoking Barrels you'll probably like this. A definite 5/5

I enjoyed that one!

The damn draft!

Sticking with Westworld Season 3, but its a little tedious. It was a fun and had a unique story line, now it's become just another sci-fi show. Two more episodes for this season, guess I'll stick it out

Also now watching the new season of Ozark, great so far.

Wasn't that directed by Bill Gates?

Written and directed by George Lucas. On a dystopian kick. Watched the '50s version of 1984 earlier, planning on watching the '85 one next.

Oh, that's right...sorry, I was getting it confused with our current "reality".

The Gates version is called Event 201.

Please, folks, it makes it useful for some of us to see how you rate a movie or series.

Currently, “The Last of the Mohicans.” A great movie, based on a great book.

I remember when I was a kid, when the film was released on VHS blockbuster had them for sale at $99 and they were gone instantly.

watched the worst horror movie I've ever seen. Possession. Basically it looked like they took acting students and told them to act psycho with no context and then used that for the stars to follow. Seriously it's the kind of movie that makes you think about how much time and resources got wasted in making in when someone could have done something more productive with their time like picking their nose. In other words it was awesome and mind bending. Though seriously it is the kind of movie that should make all your failures sting a little less cause they're not as grand as that movies mess.

Watched Carnival Row, it was okay. Just finished Tales from the loop. That was awesome. Great sci-fi.

Also started on this last week, never quite sure why I didn't catch it before. Also re watched all of Life On Mars with the wife and we've started re-watching the sequel series Ashes to Ashes - both great are a great watch and fun to spot the 70's / 80's references and things you remember from your youth (if you're old enough!).

I enjoyed Life on Mars and was sad when they pulled the plug.

Just watched John Carpenter's 1976 classic Assault On Precinct 13. I've seen it a good few times before but it's one of those movies that never gets old.

For those that haven't seen it, it's about a police station in a gang infested neighbourhood that is shutting down the next day so only has a skeleton staff. The gang members attack which means the police and two prisoners have to work together to survive.
A great movie and a definite 5/5.

Carpenter was on some roll for about a decade. Assault On Precinct 13, The Fog, Halloween, Escape From New York, Big Trouble In Little China and They Live.
Amazing director?.
