TV/Movies Megathread

[garbon]

So, garbo, have you seen Looking: the Movie?

Watching it right now. Just as boring and charming as the tv series.

No, I still need to finish watching the show as season 2 was still airing when I moved to the UK.

I would like Andrew Haigh to come up with a new project. Been quite sometime since Weekend.

That last episode was amazing.

Oh good. Can't wait.

I won't say anything else then. Let us know when you've seen it.

[spoiler]They really do like fucking around with the notion of an unreliable point of view, don't they?[/spoiler]

Yup. Thought it was pretty well done.

I am curious thought about what [spoiler]the website's real analog was or did he just completely make up any drama with the guy who was supposedly a host for a website?[/spoiler]

I'm going to grant you a super power today, Martinus.  Click on the oldest post in that quoted thread.  Then scroll up slightly.

Mr Robot I think.

Love the approach though Marti. Like an old woman two tables away trying to join a conversation

[Sheilbh]

What ARE you people talking about? Is it MacGyver?

[Martinus]

Fuck you. I can't be arsed to scroll up. Anyway, what the fuck is Mr. Robot?

That is pretty good.

[garbon]

Fuck you. I can't be arsed to scroll up. Anyway, what the fuck is Mr. Robot?

An American show about hackers in New York. Buzzfeed and Amazon finally wore be down with all their product placement for it - and it is pretty good. Season season is airing now.

[garbon]

Oh and to close out on Stranger Things.

[spoiler]I don't see why they need to make a next series. Everything was really wrapped up apart from that pointless bit near the end that clearly happened solely to leave the door open for another season. I think those people, in that town, have been traumatized enough though.[/spoiler]

[spoiler]Also, poor Barb.[/spoiler]

Not sure what you mean. I think that was all real.[spoiler] The guy was likely a prison guard who corralled him into doing it--it explains him being beaten up and everything else. [/spoiler]

[spoiler]So on a computer in the prison?[/spoiler]

[Josephus]

[spoiler]So on a computer in the prison?[/spoiler]

Yes. [spoiler] Which makes sense, The whole time I was wondering why he HAD to use Black Guys' computer--why he couldn't just get a lap top or use his house one or whatever. [/spoiler]

[spoiler]Well actually they covered that. He was refusing to let himself use a computer 1) because of Mr. Robot and 2) he feared what would happen as he inevitably went down his path of snooping and getting people caught by police. None of it was very credible but that was also the case as we knew Christian Slater was still part of the cast. [/spoiler]
