TV/Movies Megathread

[Duque de Bragança]

Once upon a time in Hollywood was a bit too much in self-indulgence for me. It still has great scenes though.

At least OUATIH got away from the torture porn aesthetic of his last several films.

I actually don't think I've watched a full Tarantino film since Jackie Brown - which is weird because I do like those films.

But, for whatever reason, I don't really seek out his films. So it's more like I'll probably watch it if it's on TV and I don't think I've sort-of stumbled across any of his recent films

Has anyone been watching World on Fire? My parents just finished it and said they enjoyed it. For my own watching, I just knocked out She-Ra and The Princesses of Power season 5, am into season 2 of Avatar: The Last Airbender, Ewoks, watching Harley Quinn each week it gets released, and am thinking about getting a Hulu trial to watch The Great.

I watched about ten minutes of World on fire. Seemed to portray the times and characters as an ordinary uneducated teenager would fantasize about them.

So, stupid with characters behaving like modern characters in a fantasy version of times past.

For shame really, Tarantino rightly insists IMO in watching movies in a cinema. His movies are really tailored with some excentric moves such as 70 mm screening for the Hateful 8.

Is that the UK-Polish co-production set in WW2?

Because I watched it and your criticism is valid, but above and beyond that, the plot was full of the most unlikely co-incidences and rather iffy history. Sean Benn was wasted in it.

I've been catching up on Friday night dinner. In the past I've only watched it sporadically but it is rather good.

The original cast of Community (minus Chevy Chase) just did an online table read of one of their episodes (Cooperative Poligraphy, from Season 5) for charity which I've just watched. It feels as if they haven't skipped a beat, I felt taken back in time. 

Alison Brie as Annie is still the most adorable creature on earth.

The discussion afterward is also quite nice.

Yeah, I saw that too and part of the podcast that Joel McHale and Ken Jeong have been doing lately, which was more of the same but in an even more free flowing and inside-jokeish way. I must say it's quite heartwarming to see that they seem to be really good friends off screen.

Eurovision was sadly cancelled this year but instead we get a Netflix Eurovision movie...

It looks very faithful to the original material.

It could pass for a real one. 

I was rooting for Russia in this year's edition, as they finally succumbed to the weirdness.

I'll probably watch it
