2 episodes in on Calphate.

Very predictable so far. 

Strange you said that. I watched the first 2 episodes a while and haven't gone back to watch the rest.

Netflix:  Rogue Warfare.  Got maybe 15 minutes into it before calling it.

My ranking would differ a lot from yours, but even looking at the last movie on your list, The Incredible Hulk, was still a pretty decent movie, and probably better than Justice League.

The Incredible Hulk felt like a D.C. movie. It was dark, brooding, humorless, and had terrible dialogue. Mark Ruffalo is so much better as the Hulk.

We’re through S3E6 on Ozark. Pure insanity. 
Marty and his family could use a few months of just coming home, having dinner, and just watching some tv together in the evenings. No drama, no hassles, no new crisis.

Glad you stayed with it and are enjoying it. 

We were telling you it keeps going and twisting as it goes. 

Very well written show.

I ended up watching the last 20 minutes of that the other day. Still good, and better than Friday Night Lights. 

[Catwhoshatinthehat]

Watched Inception on Netflix.  I'll be honest the only other times I had seen it or rather parts of it were when I came across it on TV and I don't believe I had ever seen it all the way through.  Really enjoyed it.

It kind of holds up. I really liked this movie 20 years ago....even with the baggy jeans. Some cliche moments, but not a bad movie.

I forgot Paul Walker was the star quarterback. And Jesse Plemons was his kid brother in the movie.

You have to figure they are probably still dressing like that in west Texas anyway.

1917

This is sort of a gimmicky, cliched war movie with a couple of twists. First twist, is it's World War I and not World War II. For those who weren't aware, WWI is the war that came before WWII where the Germans were also the bad guys, but they weren't Nazi's yet and thus not nearly as capable movie villains. Maybe it's just me but I like a little history in my historical drama, and there isn't much here to set this movie apart from any of the myriad of WWII movies aside from the funny looking helmets everyone has.

The second twist is, it's all in one shot, but it really isn't, but it does kind of look like one (actually two). This makes for some epic visuals, courtesy of the master Rodger Deakins, but I found it a bit distracting at some points. It was definitely worth the watch but kind of a let down on the story front.

Spoiler

Also I found it funny that Rob Stark plays King Tommen's brother

Amazon:  Upload  This wasn't a great series, and it wasn't horrible.  A lot of comments about micro transactions and virtual reality and all that.  I just thought it was one note safe through the entire first season.  It kind of picked up towards the end.  It's too bad, it had potential.  Overall, wait for season 2 to see if it gets better before investing in this one.

I enjoyed t much more on my 2nd watch of it. The first watch in theaters I was very distracted by the 1 shot style by Deakins. Left the theater feeling the same way you just stated but I really enjoyed the story the 2nd time I watched it. 

[Tank]

i really enjoyed 1917 in the theaters.

Tried to watch an old movie - Gerry with Matt Damon and Casey Affleck. Just horrible. Possibly the most boring movie I have ever seen. Fast forwarded through most of it.

[Homebrewer]

We ventured into "The Morning Show" because the GF wanted to ...and I ended up liking it quite a bit. Lying backstabbing high stress environment and Steve Carell with a serious role.. finished the season in 3 evenings.

Netflix:  White Lines.   I didn't get it.  Barely got through the first episode.  Called it quits on the second.  Maybe I was too distracted and wasn't paying close enough attention.  But it didn't make sense why this series was even made.

Maybe you will have better luck with it than I did.  And the funny thing is, it's from the makers of Heist, which I love.  So maybe I was just in a non attentive mood?
