I can’t find the Snowpiercer thread because I wanted to check.

It is 1034 cars long?

Don't forget, it did change twice from 1000 to 994 to 1034.....

I'm just waiting until Sean Bean's character inevitably gets killed hehe

Careful.

It all kicked off last time someone insinuated that SB dies a lot. hehe

I really quite enjoy snowpiercer! I was skeptical for the first few episodes of S1 but it has generally stayed pretty good!

Jury still out on the Korean “the myth” series - it’s a bit childish

Tribes of Europa was far better than I expected

The Trial of the Chicago 7
Decided to give this a go based on the positive reviews on this thread and I was not disappointed, well worth a watch even if you haven't seen the previous 6 films smile
Well your post made me laugh smile

Agree - it's well worth a watch - Sacha seems to get better and better

The Siege of Jadotville

Once it kicks off its pretty much action all the way!

10,000 rounds and a flaming Landrover out of 13,000 rounds shoot

they are adding in Big Alice count to the number this season!

regardless - its actually quite good so far, and Bean, being Bean, is ok, they are still keeping the other characters strong too.

I'm guessing Gardner wanted to step back this season and be on the "polar station" for a while.

Latest episode was great, good to change the pace a little and get off the train for the first time. Some interesting revelations too!

Could be a few more seasons if ratings are good, so don't hold your breath!

They can paraphrase the famous Sean Bean Goldeneye line as the final conversation biggrin

"For Democracy Layton?"
"No, for me"

To whoever mentioned Ash vs Evil Dead - thank you.

Not sure how I missed this previously but it’s brilliant. Very funny and ridiculously gory. Just started s2.

It's so gloriously excessive. So. Much. Blood

You'll know within the first 10 mins of Season II that you're still in safe hands biggrin

Plus there's an exchange when he meets his dad that still makes me laugh when I think about it laugh

NSFW Trailer for those who don't know it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-Yq3jeOmxSk

Anyone notice a lot of hot pixels in Netflix content especially queen's gambit and ratched? So maybe not loads loads but enough it's not a one off issue

Was a good episode but i did wonder would the petrol engined snow mobile work in -120c? Was hoping as it panned in it would be electric or something

Good Q - i'm guessing thats some tech they have invented - after all they managed to invent the whole train ;-)

i've liked this series, but for some reason i'm not liking it as much as the previous - its a good show though for sure .... and despite everyone banging on about Picard and Discovery, this show and the Expanse is some of the best scifi i've seen in a long time.

It's not as good as the first series but still worth watching.

Has to be in the running for daftest overall concept for a series/film though.
