Family have been warned not to watch it as we've decided to watch it together on Christmas Eve in front if a roaring fire and a very big bag of sweets.

By 'we' I mean me of course:)

That's the perfect way to watch it
I was tempted to watch as soon as it landed but in the end held off until I had the decorations up

Watched Klaus based on the recommendations in here and it didn't disappoint! Fantastic little film and I loved how the ending

leaves the magic of how Klaus became an immortal Santa who can visit every child on earth in a night totally unexplained

Watched it last night and really enjoyed it. Nice wee Christmas movie.
One thing I would've liked to see in it

was what happened the naughty kid. Just see him being nice.

6 Underground (Ryan Reynolds ,Micheal Bay)
https://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/6_underground
What’s the best part of being dead? It isn’t escaping your boss, your ex, or even erasing your criminal record. The best part about being dead…is the freedom.

That’s the premise behind 6 Underground, Michael Bay’s new movie for Netflix. 6 Underground introduces a new kind of action hero. Six individuals from all around the globe, each the very best at what they do, have been chosen not only for their skill, but for a unique desire to delete their pasts to change the future. The team is brought together by an enigmatic leader (Ryan Reynolds), whose sole mission in life is to ensure that, while he and his fellow operatives will never be remembered, their actions damn sure will.


The 9th Precinct(Taiwanese)

Marriage story. Meh about the film. Adam Driver was phenomenal.

He looked huge in this film. A very physical presence and fantastic acting.

Documentary called Sour Grapes unloaded recently.

Really great easy watch.

The Little Prince is a lovely version of the classic French story, seen it a few times and always get something in my eye. Off topic, you can buy an excellent quality Fox from numerous sellers on aliexpress.

I just finished episode 2 of virgin river and I'm liking it. Bar the fact that it seems the same type of characters are in most American TV shows virgin river so far at least doesn't make it painfully obvious.

Is the lead actor in that Henry Cavill? Or is it someone else?

For me, Virgin River is cheesy and predictable. It's like a drawn out Hallmark movie.

In saying that, I'm somehow on episode 10. It's in the "It's so bad that it's good" category. An easy watch for a hangover.

Sounds ****e.....I must watch this immediately

Watched Marriage Story today after hearing some good reviews on it but not sure what to make of it. Good performances in it and it was an interesting view into when a relationship breaks down but I don't know, it just felt a bit boring?

The Irishman is another I am unsure on so far, have tried to sit down to watch it and must of roughly got through an hour of it but really not doing it for me so far. Usually I would love these types of films and I was really looking forward to its release but it hasn't gripped me yet, will get around to watching the rest of it soon.

Lots of popcorn in that round of additions. Happy to see Accepted (2006) in there as it's one of my favourite of those dumb stoner comedies and the core premise of

college being a place to explore your interests in order to discover your talents

is one the idealistic side of me really likes.

Virgin river is brilliant, watched the whole thing in one sitting. Great to hear there is going to be a second season.

Yeah, it's an easy watch. It's very light and fluffy, extremely predictable and soapy at times but has a good cast and is generally well done.
