What are you watching?

The Impossible (note: very brief nudity, but true story)
Secret Life of Pets 2

Mythica

Aeronauts (Amazon movie).  Pretty neat story.

Tried to watch the Hulu show Future Man.  The language was rougher than any Amazon or Netflix show I have seen, and it was disgustingly vulgar on top of that.  I did not finish the first episode and won't.

Mythica:  Darkspore

Mythica 3:  The Necromancer


Two more of these to go!  If you enjoy science fantasy movies like Lord Of the Rings, you might enjoy them.  While they are feature length, they would have made better TV shows.  I wanted to see them when you had to pay to rent them through Amazon, but now they are free with Prime.

ESPN is showing some great boxing matches of the past.  Earlier today watched the 'Rumble in the Jungle' between Ali and Foreman and just finished watching the 'Fight of the Century' (Ali & Frazier).  The 'Thrilla in Manilla' to follow later this evening.

Mythica:  The Iron Crown
Mythica: The Godslayer

I have also watched the next 6 Marvel films (Iron Man 3, Thor: The Dark World, Capt. America: Winter Soldier, Guardians Of The Galaxy, Avengers: Age of Ultron, and Ant-Man).  That's 12 films down with 10 more to go.

I also started a new sci-fi series on Netflix.  It only has one season but a second has been ordered but delayed by the COVID-19 lockdowns as filming was to begin in May.  It is called Another Life.  The story will keep you on the edge of your seat, but the language is atrocious.  Why can't Netflix or Amazon do a show without all the unnecessary foul language?

I just watched the first two episodes of that over the last few days.
You're right the language is pretty bad.  Also the team on the spaceship has to be some of the most unprofessional "professionals" ever assembled for a disciplined space mission.  They seem to just whine and swear/scream at each other most of the time.  Kind of makes it less than believable.

Ever work in a school with different aged teachers?  Trust me--a space mission like the one on the show is very similar to how teachers are at my school.  If you factor in the entitlement and lack of work ethic of many Millennials and their following generation, then this show becomes absolutely believable.  What is unbelievable is that the crew isn't all whining about the need for their student loans to be forgiven.

The Open House on Netflix. A creepy movie about a mom and son that move into a mountain house and strange things start to happen. Decent so far and half way thru.

Just looked up some reviews for it and it ranks very low, a lot of one star reviews. I'll decide for myself once it is over.

One review said  "Do not watch this if you have anything better to be doing, which can include fishing, cleaning your hamsters cage, watching a history documentary." LOL


Another: Netflix has produced one of the worst horror movies ever made with Open House. Avoid at all costs.


So naturally I have to see it!

Wow, that was incredibly LAME! What does that mean? You gotta see it!

Oh gosh, now I'm glad I don't work with many millennials.   We only have one in our small office and we hired him, he's a hard worker and never complains.  Any time he want's time off (which isn't all that often) we give it to him.  Had to interview nearly 20 people just to find him....there aren't a lot of great prospects out there it seems.

Let There Be Light (great Christian film from the Sorbo family)

God's Compass

Wife wants to see all the Hunger Games films again, so we watched the first one last night.

We're watching Band of Brothers.

ESPN is showing Super Bowl highlights rest of the day, so it is off to the couch...  Not that I have anything else better to do with everyone being closed from the pandemic.

I liked that one.  It wasn't your typical fare, and done quite well I thought.

Indeed. 5 stars. I hadn't heard of it until you posted it here so thanks.

I finished this up today.  The language doesn't improve. It gets worse when they really get under pressure towards the end of the 10 episode season.  There will be a second season, but that will now be delayed.  They were supposed to start shooting in mid-March, but the Kung Flu shut them down.
