    Had never seen it before, so watched Gattaca last night. Cracking film, would definitely recommend it if you never got around to it before.

    I have it My List for months now, I'll give it a watch over the weekend.

    Even those things considered,the notion of putting your kid in a situation like that is beyond fcuked up .


    I think those parents should have faced charges.
    Even for neglect. Utterly useless parents.

    Watching it and listening to the clean cut parents ,and then it's fcking bammmm..

    No way they give off that vibe on first impressions.

    The mother was utterly beaming anytime she talked about "B" too. Bizarre.

    Originally Get Out (on Netflix), but that comment was for the trailer for the directors new film Us.

    I think.

    Oh well, give me an easy life and a peaceful death.

    I just couldn't believe the situation they got themselves into and how anyone could possibly be that gullible, then I realised they were Mormons and it all made sense.

    I kind of knew the mother part was coming but then when the father started saying that story I was like WTF, I never expected that

    Parents to blame alot for what happened, suppose it was a different time but still, how could they be that naive

    I know I couldn’t believe it either.

    A lot of people were recommending Get Me Roger Stone yesterday, but I couldn't find it. Has it gone?

    Damn. I searched through all the documentaries and for "get me..." and it didn't come up on the TV.

    But I see now I can see it on my phone app.

    I've watched abducted in plain sight up until the "mission" and I'm sorry but how gualible can parents be ?

    Braindead,self serving,egocentric morons.

    They were happy to put their own closet panderings and hush hush kicks ahead of their kids welfare.

    Vile humans one and all.

    The parents were every bit as weird as that creep "B".

    Throw the book at the lot of em :(

    I haven't watched any further and I probably will finish it at some point but I don't think i've ever watched a part of documentary on something and been that angry and annoyed this early. I've been annoyed at the end but not in the middle.

    Started Polar last night. Awful movie. Turned it off after an hour. Trying hard to be John Wick but a very poor imitation.

    I stopped too, right after they signed the affadavit saying that she hadn't been kidnapped. They try to come across as the victims who didn't know any better but they're as bad as he was. "We didn't know then what a child molester was" or words to that effect. You don't have to know anything about molestation to know that allowing a grown man in your child's bed is wrong. Dangerous freaks the lot of them.

    The docu might have suffered a bit from being hyped up by so many people. That raises expectations. My husband and I were lucky that we didn’t really know what to expect from it. That’s why we enjoyed it so much. I couldn’t have found it less boring, mainly because I could not believe what a delusional, arrogant fücko Billy was.

    I hadn't bought into any hype - I watched cos I wasn't sure what to watch when I finished one show so i stuck it on thinking it might be mildly interesting.

    And that's all I found it to be: mildly interesting.

    I might have found it more interesting if the had bothered to find anyone involved that you could like or even empathise with. It just left me a bit cold and while the premise is a bit mad, the final product fell a bit flat for me.

    I don't think I liked a single main person in it either, vast majority of them seemed like the most vile self obsessed narcissists.
    They were all pretty quick to pass the blame, taking no acceptance for their part in it.
    Mildly diverting

    WOW, just watched the final episode of It’s Always Sunny, I’m actually speechless. Of all the shows, I never thought this would be one that would have me close to tears. Completely blew me away.

    On a slightly negative note, I don’t think the show can ever go back to what it was, but holy cr*p, what an ending.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 24,841 ✭✭✭✭Alf Veedersane


    Just finished La Mante.

    Would recommend. There was a lot about the finale I thought could have been done differently but I was in at that stage. Also a lot they could have done worse when they changed directions in the finale.

    As a sidebar, one of the main characters, actress Manon Azem, is ridiculously attractive.

    Had a similar reaction. Opinions are fairly split on it though!
