    Charlie's Angels (2019)

    There was a line in "Russian Doll" (bad, by the way) that said something to the effect of: " A generation of artists were wiped out by Aids and we barely talk about it Maybe that explains "Charlie's Angels" new movie. There is just no creativity or talent for writing movies any longer...

    The Mandalorian

    It is sort of ironic how some of the best westerns are anti-westerns... "The Searchers" is a great example. As is "The Man Who Shot Liberty Valence" and "Unforgiven." "Pale Rider," on the other hand, goes back to the original trope and, although I kinda like the movie, I kinda hate it too... I...

    I want to rename the show "Unforcegiven."

    The Mandalorian

    Episodes 1 & 2 were solid. A lot of fan-boy service, but it was done well and with subtlety. I like the "High Plains Drifter" / "Unforgiven" angle this seems to be taking. I miss the John Williams scores. Love the 38 minute format. Let it roll...

    Babylon 5

    OMG-- good naked and bad naked... So true. Look, "Altered Carbon" sucked, but there are some beautiful people in it. But Dichen Lachman not only is "bad naked," but her nude scene is really fucking disturbing for so many reasons; not the least of which is the entire concept of her stored...

    The Fast Food Thread

    KFC Chicken sandwiches... I had to try them for the 2 for $6 deal. As you know, I am a fan of the Popeye's chicken sandwich. The KFC chicken sandwich is so clearly a direct challenge to Popeyes. Here is the picture from the website: This is the sandwich I got: It's a greasy, salty...

    His Dark Materials

    I watched the first 2 episodes. Very awesome. It's been a long time since I read "The Golden Compass" and I remember getting a little lost in all the characters. I remember it being somewhat of an anti-church allegory. I DO remember going to see the first attempt at the movie and being very...

    Martha Higareda!!! Way better... Dichen Lachman IS the alien-human hybrid from X-files.

    Babylon 5

    I am up to season 3 of the rewatch of B5- VERY watchable. Excellent because of the actors, the characters, the internal and external consistency overall and it's vision of the future. Flawless? No, of course not! Dated? Of course it is, but how couldn't it be? Amazing that it had 22...

    Babylon 5

    OMG-- I am through season 2 of B5 for the rewatch. Awesome. I love how the second string characters shine this season. But Amazon Prime made a suggestion-- "Space:1999." That show used to play on the local network at odd hours in the mid-1970's. So I watched the first episode and I was...

    Babylon 5

    I am rewatching this-- I found it on Amazon Prime. I need some good TV. Yes, even with it's flaws of occasional cheesiness, this is a remarkable show. I have (still) an original shadow action figurine in its box in my basement as well as the entire series on VHS (along with quite a few other...

    Tom Clancy's Jack Ryan

    "I also like the whole scene where they were trying to escape the embassy, so jack and the embassy head dude are out in the country and here comes a fucking truck with a mounted 50 cal machine gun spraying down the piddly little foreign car, while they are just chilling behind it. And then the...

    Tom Clancy's Jack Ryan

    It was an enjoyable enough way to fill time. Kudos to Prime for making the episodes 40-42 minutes, BUT it wasn't exactly an espionage show. It was more of a culmination of smaller (non-world-changing) plots sewn together. Never did quite understand what the purpose of the assassination plot...

    I thought this was the girl who played Mary Jane in the new Spiderman movies. Almost (but not quite) made me not hate her. But now I realize it isn't her-- so I can still despise the concept of the new Mary Jane:

    Pisses me off. Total tobacco lobbying move. A few people die nebulously connected to vaping (bad science) BUT 500,000 people DO die each year from cigarettes and vaping has been cutting into big tobacco's bottom line...

    Carnival Row

    Steampunk spun off from cyberpunk by William Gibson (the father of cyberpunk and coiner of the term "the web."). He wrote "The Difference Engine" that led to the coining of the term "steampunk." But of course, the precursors to the genre had existed for over a century before Gibson (Conan Doyle...

    They are spicy, but then again, I swear they are made of salty, cayene-infused sawdust. Chicken? Doubt it... Chicken byproducts. Most likely. Try eating a few and then not drinking a quart of liquid within an hour.
