Snowpiercer - shite series about a train that houses the last known remnants of the human race as it travels round a frozen Earth. Even worse than rewatching the first episode of Star Trek NG.

    Netflix-viewing numbers are pretty impressive. The Old Guard has been watched with 72 million accounts. No wonder even name-directors are willing to do business with them now.

    It looks like one of those textbook films for people that aren’t into films

      Blain I watched the original film by Bong Joon-ho, director of Parasite.. also shite. Need to try Memories of Murder though - apparently his other really good film. I fear he is a one-hit wonder though…

          Dubman lol. Not at all. Timepass and hoping my peoples don’t make asses of themselves. Turn out they sorta do in this show.

            Jules72 There’s a scene in the movie where security guys come out with blades, run them through a dead fish to coat them in blood and then attack the heroes.

            Apparently the film financiers - Harvey Weistein before he got caught - wanted it cut as it came across weird for western audiences.

            That Boon Jo whatsisface told Weinstein it was a tribute to his father who was a fisherman so it got kept in.

            The flick comes out and then he does interviews saying his dad wasn’t a fucking fisherman, he just wanted the scene in the movie.

            lol.

                seanc80 Exactly. Most people (not us Barry Normans obv) watch flicks at home as background noise and are constantly checking their phones and such like so flicks like the old guard where you don’t really have to focus particuarly hard on them do really well for the majority.

                  Along_the_Wire The Sinner series 3 is some of the worst television I’ve ever seen. Tripe.

                  You obviously haven’t seen White Lines. Oh my days…

                      Wally I’m halfway through season 2 of Dark - fuck me it’s tricky keeping on top of it all. Brilliant tele.

                          haha - my brain is slightly melting in the 3rd series (in a good way)
                          Hope I ‘get it’ at the conclusion!!

                          Homegrove Looking forward to this… definitely going to be interesting with the same guys who did Don’t fuck with cats, which was actually highly entertaining.
