I love Elba. Luther is definitely one of my favs. I think it was my first Kodi binge lol.

Speaking of Luther, read an article last weekend that they are making a Luther movie. Also read that HBO is coming out with a prequel movie to the Sopranos. The Many Saints of Newark....

I'll PM ya with info on how to watch Persona.

PM me as well. I looked for it last night and found like three different Persona and none were the one you're talking about.

Will do, but it will be a minute. When I tried to PM Lion, I got an error message saying I have 200ish saved messages, and my limit is 50 lol... Seems every time a I sent a donation or beer to someone, it's now in my mail.... So I'll be deleting/cleaning for a few. Not sure if they decreased the limit, or the new version stores donations/gift notifications differently.

Looks like you have the same problem I had..... Tried to PM you, and your mail if full lol...

It was a pain in the ass deleting. Tip.... don't try to select stuff on multiple pages. I went through and selected every page, then tried to delete, and found out you can only do one page at a time.
Then you have to delete your trash too. When deleting your trash, it's easier when you hit the select all, which I didn't see early on....

Ted Lasso...

That show has no right to be as good, and as funny, and as HEARTWARMING as it is, especially considering its origin as a one-dimensional marketing ploy for the Premier League.

I can't say enough good things about the show lol. It might not have quite the same impact on other people, but the constant messages of positivity and the continuous personal breakthroughs are right in my wheelhouse. Sudeikis was perfect, and the show hits on all of the personality-based cliches that you would expect... but still somehow makes it feel fresh and impactful.

It probably helps that it was about the polar opposite of Deadwood in terms of tone and style, so coming off of a Deadwood marathon, it was a perfect palate cleanser.

I'll be itching for season 2 now.

Try again. I deleted a bunch about a week ago.

Gangs of London S1 will premier on AMC tonight. I watched it last year via Kodi and highly recommend it. If IIRC, scored over an 8 on IMDB.
Very good cast and writing IMO.

Have become a fan of Director Tiller Russell. His docs are great. Just watch The Last Narc & Operation Odessa. He also directed The Seven Five (awesome) and The Night Stalker.

Never had a chance to mention this last year but for folks in the mood for a very challenging film I would highly recommend I'm Thinking Of Ending Things on Netflix. As usual Charlie Kaufman creates something amazing and sad that my mind keeps wandering back to.

Haven’t see Operation Odessa but The Last Narc was very good.

Watched Hotel Rwanda earlier while doing chores. Such a great movie. I think I watch it at least once a year when it's on cable.

Looking forward to S2 of Godfather of Harlem tomorrow. One of the better premium series currently IMO. Great cast and writing.

After watching and loving Turkish series Persona (Sahsiyet), tried another one. Masum (also with Haluk Bilginer) was very very good. Not as good as Persona, but still an 8ish rating. Bilginer won an Emmy for Persona.

Going to try another one this week called Halka (the Circle), which is available free on Youtube and is rated very high as well.

Also saw that The Godfather 3 - Coda, The Death of Michael Corleone is now on Showtime.

I watched it when it came out, and enjoyed some of the changes, but overall not a huge deal. I know some were down on part 3, but I enjoyed even if it's not on the level of 1 and 2.

Watched both seasons of Warrior through HBO Max.

Gratuitous sex, violence and use of the f word set in post Civil War San Francisco.

Sounds like it is coming back for a third season.

Sounds like my kind of show, but I no longer have HBO.

Rewatched Season 1 of Stranger Things. Going to go through Seasons 2-3 as well. Such a cool show. I have never gone through them a second time.

Did you like it? I really enjoyed it, for what it was. It's actually pretty straight forward, once you put together what's happening (I guess that's the trick though).

The absolute posterization of Robert Zemeckis though... disgusting.

I figured out pretty early what was going on so it was pretty good. My wife didn’t and she hated it. About half way through I paused it and explained to her what was going on and she still didn’t like it. The reason I would say it was just pretty good is I was hoping for something more near the end. I don’t want to put spoilers in the thread so I’ll stop at that.

Watched Mortal Kombat because I could not sleep. Probably better than the others but still Mortal Kombat. This seems to be a type of movie I watch when I cannot sleep.

The wife and I just finished Murder Mountain. It's about the ruthlessness of the illegal pot growing business in Oregon and the disappearance of quite a few people.

“Mythic Quest” on Apple TV+.

It took a couple of episodes to get rolling, but it actually turned out to be a pretty charming story set in a video game development company. Excited to start season 2 tomorrow night.

And I will say that the 5th episode of S1, which was a standalone story about unrelated characters, is one of the better episodes of television I’ve ever seen, period, amongst any show or genre. Really well-crafted story that makes you feel deeply in a short amount of time.
