OT: 67th Obsequious Banter Thread: At Least We’re Not The Leafs, Right?

I just finished season 3 of sneaky Pete. It’s still a good show but the first season is by far the best. This season I absolutely hated Lizzie. One of the most annoying characters in recent memory.

Watched the first episode of Chernobyl last night, fantastic. Although I keep waiting for Homer Simpson to appear.

Saw the first 2 episodes. Really good. I think everything has been spot on from how the Soviet Union handled it with the information to the graphic injuries from the accident. The casting has been spot on as well

I'm in Vancouver on Saturday and need some stuff to do.

Anyone?!?!

 

[BackToTheBrierePatch]

Just watched What’s My Name on Prime. A doc on Ali. Really done well.

Enjoyed Ch. 3, liked Ch. 2 more.

Do they go into detail about how stupid the experiment was? Because it was really stupid.

I'll be starting that soon. My dad has been texting me complaining that Carly has been super annoying and that the show isn't centered enough on Marius/Pete.

I ate 2 monster slim jims in his honor.

Nacho cheese flavor. I'd post the pic, but I already ate it.

New Great TV show starting in June on Showtime.

City on a hill starring Kevin Bacon as the main guy. This should be interesting. Previews are on youtube

Finally considering buying a legit electric shaver. I've always gone cheap (or somewhat cheap) with my beard trimmers and my electric shavers and I think mine just isn't doing it anymore and hell, the thing doesn't even hold a charge anymore and needs to be plugged in to be used. Should be fun, but damn they can be pricey.

I used to have this Macho Man Slim Jim holder thing I used as a coin saving jar.

I was fine with Carly. She is the way she is this season for well defined reasons.

Thoughts?

I thought that movie was supposed to be about the Manson murders? Weird tone.

It is, kind of. It’s “multiple storylines in a tribute to the final moments of Hollywood's golden age”.

Edit: Looking up it’s apparently not historically accurate sans some of the characters & that event that serves more so as a backdrop to movie.

Only Sergio Leone gets to make Once Upon A Time films.

 

[LegionOfDoom91]

IIRC they got some blowback when this first came about. Perhaps that’s why they dialed back the Manson murder angle of it?

That's shocking for a Tarantino movie.

Inglorious Bastards is his most historically accurate film.

I like the trailer and seeing Pacino there cheered me up. I honestly thought I am not going to see him in another movie again. Hyped for Tarantino's no. 9!

"Fleabag" is stealth good on Amazon streaming. I liked the 2nd season even more. Quick watch too (short episodes, not many episodes).
