America - The Motion Picture

I’m not sure what I’ve just watched.

Some funny bits. Some bits that I didn’t get. Childish in the extreme but with plenty of gore.

Not one to watch if you’re looking for highbrow entertainment.

6 London bus AT-AT’s out of 10 George Washington’s.

The Grauniad called it "puerile" so I'm sure I'll love it

They've added Akira for anyone who hasn't seen it or wants another look.

Original Japanese or the English dub for the lazy.

Thank you for the heads up good sir. One of my all time favourites.

[V1nce Fox]

Love that America and Akira are both being discussed.

that's a full on recommendation there

[pquinn]

If you see Code Red come up as a recommendation or whatever don't bother watching. It's the sort of thing Horror Channel would put on at 2am.

It's not that it's bad as such - they tried - but the Bulgarians didn't have the skill or budget to make it good and that gets annoying really quickly.

I guess Netflix must have had a hole in their schedule as it's normally Amazon Prime that loads up on old low budget films that no one particularly wants to watch.

There will be blood. Daniel day Lewis period film about oil discovery in California. Absolutely excellent.

The Serpent

Quite good and apparently a true story too

Yeah was on the BBC a while ago, had to persevere through the initial jumping about but really good

[shirt]

Series 5 of Rick n morty is starting to be released, first 2 episodes are there.

I doubt anyone new to it will be able to follow it, it’s so knowing and self referential now, but I just can’t help loving it.

Bringing the tone down, but have we had Too Hot To Handle yet?

It's a 'reality show' a la Love Island

Anyone else finished Katla?

I’m curious of your thoughts.

Outstanding.

Especially that they (IMO) didn't play very many typical tropes.

Spoiler removed.

Agree, absolutely loved The Serpent. I did read the ex Mrs Knippenberg wasn't as impressed with it though.

Watched a feature length documentary called 'Murder By The Coast' yesterday. Really interesting and showed the Spanish justice system to be a bit lacking.

Enjoyed Katla at first but I thought it petered out towards the end.

Female lead a terrible actor - I see it was her first role and that she's a famous Icelandic popstar. She almost ruins it.

I was joking! The thread title already said "no spoilers"
