Netflix - What gems have you found? (NO SPOILERS) (Vol. 2)
Discussion
Finished Dark. Believe it or not, in a surprise shocker, it all actually made sense by the end.
Absolutely one of the best things that has ever been on TV as far as I am concerned. Has been a real mind bending adventure through all three seasons.
Can not recommend it highly enough if you have not been bothered with it yet.

Just finished Ozark series 3. I really like the series and the style of the filming etc. However it is getting a little bit grim / graphic at times. The subject matter is drug cartels so understandable, but I’m feel for the first time that watching all this isn’t very ‘healthy’.
Isn't this down to how the roles are developing. They've gone from basic money laundering help to flat out crime lords! Cutting out the middle man and going straight to the Don. I imagine that world gets worse and worse the more you get into it.Bullett said:
I'm quite enjoying Snowpiercer. The whole concept is daft as to why they are on a train but the actual show is put together pretty well. The characters are shades of grey and the plot is building up nicely.
You've convinced me to give this a go. I like a bit of sci-fi but the last few things I've watched on Netflix have not hit the spot (gave up on Nightflyers and watched The Endless last night -terrible). I was kind of drawn to Showpiercer as the idea of a train perpetually circling a frozen planet is one that appears in Iain M Banks' Consider Phlebas which is a great bit of sci-fi.illmonkey said:

As a basketball and MJ fan during the time, I knew about them and followed them, haven't watched Basketball for a long time but its great to be reminded how fantastic a sport it was/is and just how good Michael Jordan was.
You don't need an interest in the sport to watch it, its just a fantastic documentary from start to finish, beautifully put together with a great sound track as well.
Its always the same when you look at not just the greats in sport, but those very, very few who were above the greats, at how unbelievable driven they are, how failure is not even an thought to them. Everything was a challenge to MJ, a passing comment, not shaking hands etc, you piss him off and it will consume him until he destroys you on court, he was a force of nature, and you knew he was coming.
For me, the greatest sports star of my generation, possibly of all time.
Its an outstanding doc, well worth a watch and together with Ken Burns Vietnam doc, two of the best I have seen in a long time.

He came across as a thoroughly unpleasant chap. Interesting series though, Scottie Pippen was properly ripped off, he was a great player. Dennis Rodman, what a nutter!

The internal dimensions of some of the carriages is ridiculous. They make the tardis look perfectly natural.Gassing Station | TV, Film, Video Streaming & Radio | Top of Page | What's New | My Stuff
