Raithe Posted October 14, 2019 Posted October 14, 2019 A few years old now, but JMS doing a Con-talk. What's interesting is the 27-28 minute mark, where he talks about the B5 cast members they've lost, and reasons behind who they were, and what happened with them.

Hurlshort Posted October 17, 2019 Posted October 17, 2019 Goliath Season 3 - This is such a good show. It was basically a season about water contract disputes, with Dennis Quaid playing the part of the evil Nestle-like water baron, and it was fascinating the whole way through.
Gfted1 Posted October 17, 2019 Posted October 17, 2019 The Flash Started watching again after skipping almost all of season 5. Ive been slightly entertained but I have no intention of watching Arrow and Supergirl just to see the full story of Crisis on Infinite Earths. I hate when they do that.

BruceVC Posted October 18, 2019 Posted October 18, 2019 Its slightly old but Im very excited about the new HBO Watchmen "Abashed the devil stood and felt how awful goodness is and saw Virtue in her shape how lovely: and pined his loss” John Milton "We don't stop playing because we grow old; we grow old because we stop playing.” - George Bernard Shaw "What counts in life is not the mere fact that we have lived.

kanisatha Posted October 18, 2019 Posted October 18, 2019 Treadstone, based on the Bourne movies, finally came out on the USA Network this week.
Keyrock Posted October 19, 2019 Posted October 19, 2019 (edited) I've been watching NWA Powerrr (yes, with 3 Rs, don't ask me, I don't know why) on YouTube. It's a brand new 30 year old studio wrestling show, is the best way I can describe it in a sentence. So, when Billy Corgan (yes, that Billy Corgan) bought the National Wrestling Alliance a couple years ago, I didn't think much of it; the NWA, while it did technically still exist, had been basically dead for decades. I was super wrong because first he did a terrific job of making the NWA Heavyweight Championship actually mean something again with the 10 Pounds of Gold YouTube video series and now, more recently, he and Dave Lagana launched NWA Powerrr, a 1 hour weekly studio wrestling show straight out of the 80s that first airs on Tuesday at 6:05 pm EST (Turner Time!), but you can watch it whenever after that. It's amazingly 80s, cheesy in just the right ways without being cringe. It's such a perfect recreation of 80s studio wrestling, right down to the ring apron, the on screen graphics, the way the announce desk (with Jim Cornette on color!) and the podium where they conduct interviews are right next to the ring. They nailed the vibe so unbelievably perfectly that I couldn't believe my eyes, just sat there for an hour with a goofy smile on my face. It's like I traveled back in time 30 years. They even had an AMAZING ad with "The Universal Heartthrob" Austin Idol, and holy smokes Austin Idol is still phenomenal. Oh, and this is the show's theme song: The fact that a show like this exists in 2019 makes me so ****ing happy!

LadyCrimson Posted October 21, 2019 Posted October 21, 2019 I like Paul Rudd. Therefore, I tried netflix's "Living With Yourself" because, hey, twice the Paul Rudd! (eight 30ish minute episodes). ...the first couple of episodes were ok, moments of dark (?) humor, satire, middle-age and identity pathos/crisis, and of course, Paul Rudd showing off his skills in a dual role. The show has fairly good reviews but I dunno, I wasn't feeling it all that much. I can see where the reviews are coming from, however. Maybe I was just too sleepy. Or I expected to chuckle a bit more. Not sure. “Things are as they are.

Chilloutman Posted October 28, 2019 Posted October 28, 2019 just found The Expanse, binge watched whole first series, I can't believe i didn't found it sooner, best sci-fy i have seen so far 2 I'm the enemy, 'cause I like to think, I like to read.

I wanna eat bacon, and butter, and buckets of cheese, okay?! I wanna smoke a Cuban cigar the size of Cincinnati in the non-smoking section!

kirottu Posted October 29, 2019 Posted October 29, 2019 Of all the angry white men Bill Burr is my favourite. And in space he has three more lasers! This post is not to be enjoyed, discussed, or referenced on company time.
Zoraptor Posted October 29, 2019 Posted October 29, 2019 The GoT prequel about the White Walkers/ 1st Long Night has been canned. Not massively surprising given how much the whole White Walker issue was butchered in S8 and how badly that undermined the premise of and potential interest in that prequel. Development of the other proposed prequel series (Targaryens) is continuing. 1

ShadySands Posted October 31, 2019 Posted October 31, 2019 I thought about watching it but I've heard nothing good about it 1 Free games updated 3/4/21
Maedhros Posted October 31, 2019 Posted October 31, 2019 (edited) Happy they discarded the "Long Night" HBO series. Seemed very uninteresting, and didn't really have much basis in anything GRRM has written. The new show, "House of the Dragon", apparently based on the Dance of Dragons sequence in Fire & Blood, could potentially be good. The recipe is there, they just gotta adapt it properly, and keep David & Dan far away from it. Edit: When I think about it, their cooking was fine when they followed the recipe. -- Mandalorian also looking good. I could listen to Werner Herzog for hours. Edited October 31, 2019 by Maedhros

Maedhros Posted October 31, 2019 Posted October 31, 2019 He nailed the voice as far as I'm concerned. Looks like it'll be fun, if not as good as the books/games.
Lexx Posted November 1, 2019 Posted November 1, 2019 Looks great so far. I have nothing to complain about. What's even better is that the show comes out next month. \o/ "only when you no-life you can exist forever, because what does not live cannot die."
Blarghagh Posted November 1, 2019 Posted November 1, 2019 Watched this years' Twilight Zone reboot with Jordan Peele. Had a few good episodes, but... Let's put it this way, you guys know me, some of you have called me an SJW. Right? Well, this show was too freaking preachy for me. Some episodes I was like "jesus, I get it, I agree with your point on racism/gun control/consumerism/toxic masculinity/immigration but could you not hit me in the face with a sledgehammer with it printed on it?" I mean, some anvils need to be dropped but a little subtlety goes a long way.

Blarghagh Posted November 1, 2019 Posted November 1, 2019 I would but they don't like me there, what with the whole my mental illness being simultaneously just in my head and I just need to try harder as well as to blame for gun violence. 1
