Movies / TV Shows - I Have Watched / Plan To Watch

[Thorner]

When you watch Star Wars, what order do you watch them in?

IMO you gotta go order of release. There are so many call backs to themes and motifs in the later movies to things that happen in the OT - to me the original moments deserve to be witnessed first, have their full weight attributed to them. 

A New Hope first just feels right.

I watch The Last Jedi first now because it’s the best one

Hamill’s best performance bar none

My wife and I have been watching "Mare of Easttown" on HBO.  Excellent crime drama set in a blue-collar small town in PA.  So far I'll give it a solid A-minus.

However many times Ted Lasso has been recommended on here is not enough so here's one more.

Saw a few episodes on a flight, it was awesome.

Sopranos prequel series coming out, same creator from the original Sopranos.

I’m watching this for sure.

Rewatching Trailer Park Boys.  I don't think I've ever giggled so much at a show.  Bubbles is the best.

My wife and I watched “No Sudden Moves”, the new Stephen Soderbergh HBO movie with a bunch of big names in the cast.  Pretty disappointing.  I give it a C-plus.

Not sure, but it won't be Hard Knocks featuring (yet again) the football team from Dallas.

If  they really want to do something worth while on that show I suggest using one of the football sides from Manchester, maybe both.  Can you imagine the Hard Knocks between Man C and Man U?  Awesome!!

Sutherland Till I Die on Netflix accomplishes what you're looking for here

Rewatching The Leftovers again which I highly recommend if you’ve got HBO. It’s a little different from your typical drama with some simple supernaturals at work.

Christopher Eccleston does his best work in this and should’ve gotten some award recognition for it (you might know him as the first doctor of the new Doctor Who)

Once again, Mad Max Fury Road.

I will never tire of this movie.

Jackie Brown. 

Might be my favorite Tarantino movie soundtrack.

If you like QT, here is a pretty good podcast with him as the guest that I just listened to and enjoyed yesterday:  https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-big-picture/id1439252196?i=1000527228167

[Happy Days]

TV Shows that I have seen every episode are:

Happy Days, Three’s Company, Lois And Clark The New Adventures of Superman, 7th Heaven, The Office, Boy Meets World

I’ve watched Lincoln so many times lately.  I love hearing him tell stories to explain his thinking.  Good movie, good actors.

Just got home from the new 007. No Time To Die.

Nope, not a fan. It had a lot of good. But it had too much bad to overcome.

[bunomatic]

Squid Game. Loved it. 

[Zamboni]

Wife and I saw The Many Saints of Newark last night. 
 

Michael Gandolfini is in it less than I expected, but it was a good flick.

 

 

We’ve also been binge watching Creepshow. That’s pretty good too. Like the way it’s shot and presented.

Yeah. I couldn't look away. 

I'm watching LA Brea. Well I'm giving it a try because I like the idea. 

[Norcal]

I've never watched the Halloween from 2018 so I'm going to watch it and the newest version this year. Seems like the right time.

I thought it was great.

I’ve been binging Bond movies before I go see No Time To Die.

October is spooky content only. Kicked it off with Midnight Mass on Netflix which is another example of what Mike Flanagan makes the best horror tv writer ever (not movies, just tv).

Went with a classic with Clue tonight which I haven’t seen since I was a kid and it was MUCH better as an adult considering I could actually understand the ridiculousness of it all.

Clue is criminally underrated. It is such a well done movie.
