Tim Curry is brilliant. Also, the Rocky Horror influence in the movie with the “strangers gather at a mysterious home” theme starring Tim Curry as the host. It even has a Susan Surandon lookalike.

Anyone watching the doc about the Leafs last season? All or Nothing?

No but based on what I’m seeing from the team so far I know which option they chose.

No, I can’t stand those guys.

I am curious about certain things but I don’t want to go there.

Squid Game was really good.

Why? 

We already no that it was nothing and likely always will be.

I am watching the best show to ever air on the CBC, other than HNIC ...

Little Mosque on the Prairie

Season 1 is extremely funny.

Love watching the old “scary” movies from the 1930’s, 40’s, 50’s, and 60’s. Many of them have aged well.

Great movie, but she's my favorite part as well.

Another good Halloween movie for fans of blondes and curves:

 

I only have seen the rifftrax version, but it's a good one.

Holy guacamole.

I hate them as much as anyone but it feels like the start of their season is probably connected to this documentary. 

That and just watching them choke and fail.

My hope is that the Sabres will make the playoffs and get into the second round and beyond before the loafs do so I can drink the maple flavored tears.

Started watching You this week.  Had I known it was a Lifetime show, I definitely would have avoided it.  Seems pretty good, hoping when the show was moved to Netflix, they lose some of the more Lifetimey content.  More killing, less relationship drama please.

You want a good bloody movie try ‘the trip’. Starring the Swedish chick from the girl with the dragon tattoo. It is swedish but its good with lots of violence. Its about a couple that unbeknownst ( i made that one up sort of )to each other they are both planning to kill each other on their weekend get away at the cabin.

Oh how weird. Netflix recommended this to me literally like 5 minutes ago. Can't ignore that kind of coincidence. I'm going to add it to my list now.

I despised the first season. I stopped watching and just read the Wikipedia recaps after like the fourth episode because I was told season two is way better. It was true. Season two was worthwhile and a bit fun even if there’s only one likable character in the entire three seasons of the show. Third season got a little exhausting with repeating the same mistakes storylines.

I struggle with this.  Even if something is brilliantly written, I tend to not like a show/book/movie/whatever if there isn't any likeable people.

I struggled so much with season 10 of TWD because of alpha and the whisperers.  She sucked, they sucked, just ugh.  Everyone hated Andrea but I was pleasantly surprised and delighted when they brought he back during Michone’s flash backs. 
 

I am a sucker for a blond with a big rack.  See my Clue post above (or my wife for that matter)

Having read the books... yup, I'll give this a shot. I do like that they're going to lean into all of the main 5 kids being capital-M Main characters from the get-go. This is opposed to what happened in the '80s where fantasy (D&D, B-level sword/sorcery movies, Tolkien) was marketed predominantly at boys and therefore its only the boys who are viewed as Main characters in the first few books. But by the end, all 5 of them were clearly ta'veren and the TV show will be able to promote them as such. That's the right move.

 

[drnkirishone]

having never read the books I am looking forward to the series

Time to watch the classic Halloween flick 

[pastajoe]

Donated platelets at Red Cross, two hours with needles in both arms. But they have TVs with streaming services, so finally watched Black Widow. Set at the time of post-Civil War. Better than I thought I'd be, but felt a bit rushed. More like a James Bond movie. The Taskmaster identity was a surprise. I think her sister eventually will be the next Black Widow.

[drnkirishone]

think you mean the classic halloween flick

[steveoath]

Dunno if it's on your fancy North American netflix but can recommend the swedish/brit show Fallet.  Bit of a darkly comic play on the typical scandi-noir genre.
