Moments when a piece of entertainment completely rocked you.

Wanted more Adam Scott in my life so I watched his Netflix movie "Little Evil." I'm not gonna say it was a great movie, but I enjoyed it a lot more than I expected to.

Saw Train to Busan on Netflix last night.

It does so very much right. Possibly the best zombie movie yet made.

Okay, I am not gonna link it due to the restriction on political discussion: But Weird Al's "America is Doomed: the Musical" take on the debate as an NYT video op-ed is absolute fire. Go watch it.

I felt called out by the first scene of Save Yourselves, as I was watching with one leg on Darcy's lap and a hand on my phone as she was juggling remotes trying to finalize the new TV setup.

I was fortunate enough to watch it not even knowing it was a zombie movie, I just heard it was a good Korean Thriller

It's great great great

Saw it a year or so back. I really enjoyed it.

Game On,

Digimon Last Evolution Kizuna was really touching, especially as it's a series I grew up on. It concludes the original Digimon anime series.

Interestingly it's followed up with a TV anime reboot with the same characters. Kinda like Evangelion Rebuild (though the latter may be a direct sequel where the world was remade)

A friend gifted us with a stereo receiver after hearing we had one on the wishlist. Our living room surround sound is now connected to the Xbox and media center PC and is wonderful. Rewatching Fate Grand Order: Babylonia has been greatly improved with all of the noble phantasms sounding boss.

So, I started watching Invincible. At minute five I was ready to give up on it, thinking "ugh, yet another piece of lazy writing with Superman as a villain" but the thing is too well done to put down, grimdark nonwithstanding. I'm on volume two, and so far its seems like a new iteration of the experiment that was Pax Americana (but with off-brand expies... which would liken it more to Watchmen, but I don't want to use that comparison since similarities end there). This time, the premise is

"what if Krypton sent people to other planets to invade them Sayian-style?"

(not really a spoiler since tells start real early on and it's fully declared before volume 1 ends but eh).

On that note, if you liked Madoka, you'll like Wonder Egg Priority (made by the same team sans Kajiura). It's several levels of fucked up.

[Thaluikhain]

Huh, bit of a necro, we mustn't watch much good stuff.

Anyhoo Kane Pixel's Backrooms- Found Footage and related series is pretty good, apparently he's off to direct a movie because of how well received it was.

[Neo Phonelobster Prime]

The movie "Alienoid" has kung fu wizards in it.

It is to dumb fun kitchen sink action adventure movies what Marvel movies wish they were.

And while it may be stupid it doesn't think its audience is all that stupid. Without spoilers I refer to the suit, the hand gun and the mute house maid as proof it appreciated that the audience might be paying attention, thinking about things, and using that to deliver some real moments.

A pity about the CGI space robots front loading. But it can't all be good.

It sure as hell was a better sci-fi action part 1 than god damn poor mans Dune.

[Dogbert]

A friend recently refered me to Gundam: The Witch From Mercury. It starts as your tired, average school drama, but give it a chance, it has a similar narrative structure to My Hime/My Otome: It starts lighthearted but only remains stupid long enough to ease you and sell you out on the premise, then the heavy/gundam stuff starts, and starting the second half, it's wham line after wham line.

Yup. It's great.

Here's a brief summary of the gonzobonkers plot, and I'm not making any of this up:

"After time traveling cyborg jail wardens lose control of the tentacled alien prisoners they've been containing in human brains, their accidentally adopted daughter must team up with a bumbling 14th century wind magic sorcerer who has a pair of shape shifting housecat Kung fu minions and later an older bickering couple of rival traveling magical item salespeople in an to attempt to set things right."

If it has not been mentioned yet, Hellsing Ultimate Abridged by Team Fourstart on Youtube.
That shit is almost insane as the ghost stories dub but at least it makes sense in and off itself.

[Stahlseele]

I have finally gotten around to watching Ghostbusters Legacy.
It was good enough in german that i will re watch it in english.

The Trailer for Frozen Empire was . . eh . . cautiously curious.

[Neo Phonelobster Prime]

Scavengers Reign is what every single old style lost on an alien planet sci-fi B movie desperately desired to be in it's deepest unrealized fantasies.

Since it is good, sci-fi, animated, and I'm pretty sure originates on one of the failing potatoes that pass for a streaming media platform... I predict no pick up for a second season... it being eaten by the endless streaming platform wars without anyone noticing... then it will have a small cult following in about 5 years and never be revived.

[Stahlseele]

i have actually heard that title before . .
have not seen it yet.
what platform is it on?

[Omegonthesane]

google says it's on Max (formerly HBO Max)

I suspect it's also in certain other places that I would never be caught advocating the use of

[Stahlseele]

i think i may have heard a buddy of mine talking about it.
i am pretty sure he does not have hbo max, seeing how this is still germany and i do not think we get that here.

[Omegonthesane]

it's possible that there's a legal German distributor (and practically certain that there's a Honest John's Totally Legitimate TV Show Distribution distributor)
