Watched ‘Terminal’ last night. Have never heard of it before, but saw the cast list:

Margot Robbie, Simon Pegg, Mike Myers, Dexter Fletcher.

Got to be good, right?

Terrible. Absolute arse. Don’t waste your bloody time.
Rotten Tomatoes seems to agree. It's in my watch list, so will give the first episode a go but not holding out much hope now.

The Night Comes For Us. Hilariously, comically violent Indonesian martial arts film with the chap from the raid. Recommended.
I can confirm that this film is every bit as epic as your description suggests. Plus Raid 2 is one of my favourite MA films.
Yeah, I loved it too. Some of the moments of violence took things to a new level of extreme, but in a WTF way.

and another! I thought that Baseball Bat Boy and Hammer Girl were pretty hard-core - this is just different gravy though. Totally batst mental (in a good way)

Just finished Series 2 of Glitch. Really enjoyed it, series 3 in the pipeline for 2019. Now, do I go for Ozark next or Better Call Saul?

My OH loaded up Dynasty last night.

Typical Josh Schwartz affair - utter st yet also somehow binge-worthy in a guilty-pleasure kind of way.

We watched 3 episodes last night hehe.

Den of Thieves .

Great bank robber movie. Can`t get over how much Ice Cube Jr looks like his old man.
Stumbled over this one too - really enjoyed it... didn't even look at the cast list but kept thinking - he looks a lot like Ice Cube hehe

Thanks for clearing that up

The Last Man on the Moon

An interesting film about Gene Cernan, though I thought it was a bit light on the details of the man himself. Some good archive footage of the Apollo programme. Worth a watch if you like this sort of thing.

I've been watching "The Job Lot" today, seems like a half decent sitcom set in a job centre.

He has, Robin Wright is the lead.

Early impressions on the web are not good....

Watched 2 episodes last night.

Tend to agree that quality has dropped.

Maybe because it’s way less mental than the real US government at the moment?

I finished all 8 episodes and my verdict is err ... not great.

10/10 for me, a lovely double-whammy to watch with the Mission Control programme they also have on there.

Cernan was bloody great. Some of his fellow astronauts thought he wasn't quite up to commanding an Apollo mission but in fact, Apollo 17 was probably the most successful of all missions.

Started watching ozark last night, seems pretty good a couple of episodes in.

I’ve been struggling to find anything decent recently, it’s almost as if the algorithm showing me what to watch isn’t great.
