  1. Posted this on the Amazon Prime thread but putting it here as well because it’s an EPIX/MGM+ show.

    Really enjoying “From” - kind of a “Lost” feel set in a small town. People mysteriously drive in to this town and cannot leave and then have to deal with monster zombie/vampires that come out at night. Pulls no punches. You can watch the first season on Prime, new episodes are on EPIX.

  3. Binged this entire series over the weekend and loved every bit of it. You fickle MF’ers complaining about season 3, wtf? That shit was awesome - with the exception of maybe the first 2 episodes, every bit as good as Season 1 and 2.

  4. I posted this in another thread, but I think it belongs here as well. Podcast with Paul Rosolie, an American Conservationist living in the Peruvian Jungle for many years. Some cool stories about anacondas and cobras (from time when he lived in India). 
     
     

    This is a great listen.
  5. Possessor - inception with body horror. Not sure how I missed this a few years ago. Cronenberg’s son, who also just came out with infinity pool. Streaming on Hulu. 
    rewatched Rec - Spanish found footage horror. Absolutely awesome. Streaming on Prime. Hard recommend. 

    Speaking of Cronenberg’s kid - I watched Infinity Pool last night. I think I liked it better than Possessor. Mia Goth losing her shit is always worth the price of admission. Although it’s not near as over the top as a expected based on what I’d read.
  6. I mean, that's the story, right? He's NOT a great fighter. He doesn't even have a proper trainer or manager until Mick basically bullies his way into the role. He doesn't play defense because he doesn't know how. He's just going the distance with the champ because he's too stubborn to quit, willing his way into the final round.
    A mere mortal might not survive the punishment. But I mean... we live in the same world where Buster Douglas defeated Mike Tyson. Shit can, and does, happen.

    This. This right here.

  7. Rocky 4 is one of the greatest gifts cinema has given the world. I could listen to the soundtrack on the treadmill every day and never get tired of it.

    1. Training Montage
    2. War
    3. Burning Heart
    4. Eye of the Tiger
    5. Hearts on fire
    6. No Easy Way Out
    7. Sweetest Victory
    8. Going the Distance

  8. Mentioned this in the “Movies I just watched thread”.

    The Stranger on Netflix (not the series). This is Australian crime - dark, creepy, intense. Based on the true story around the “Mr Big” undercover operation to catch Daniel Morcombe’s abductor. Really enjoyed this.

  9. Speaking of Chris Martin's attire. I think way too many people there decided to try and out weird each other with their wardrobe choices.
     
    Shania looked like the Wendy's logo or an anime character.   Sam Smith's dress was, uh interesting.   And of course Harry Styles was Harry.

    My Facebook was full of “Satanic Sam Smith” posts this morning. Man I love having country relatives.
  10. Sing Street about an 80's Dublin kid that forms a band to get a pretty girl to notice him. Leaving on Jan 31st. It is a good little movie.

    Wait. There are people that haven’t seen Sing Street? This was huge with my kids and their friends 4-5 years ago. Definitely see this movie if you haven’t, especially if you like 80s music. Great for all ages.
  11. For some reason I have a subscription to the Paramount app. Oh yeah, so I can watch Cheers uninterrupted for 2-3 hours every night.

    Started from episode 1 a couple weeks ago and last night I was at the episode where Norm is the interior decorator. Loved the ending where he thinks they are going to give him a hard time and they just want a discount on furniture. So good.

    Lilith was killing it in Season 8. Sam isn’t a big fan of her driving.
