    The weekend away is not a bad movie. Watched it last night 8/10 imo

    Must admit, spoilers really don't bother me anymore. I don't go looking for them but if I accidentally find out something about a show or movie I was going to watch, it's going to make zero difference to me watching it. I use to get annoyed but honestly can't see the point anymore. It's just light entertainment.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,317 ✭✭✭bullpost


    Yep I'm in same boat. I dont then to watch stuff thats hot off the presses and so by time I get to stuff, even if I did see a spoiler, I'll have forgotten.

    Don’t have kids then! Kids are just the most expensive thing. Like with holidays and family meals out. You get the same benefit as when you were childless but you pay double/triple the price. 🙄

    With the newest price rise would any of you consider signing up via turkey? Works out at €3.40 per month for the premium 4K package

    True....but the action speaks for itself, especially last year.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,297 ✭✭✭✭Caranica


    I would if it was just me but my parents TV is connected to my account and it would just be too complicated



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,992 ✭✭✭DavyD_83


    You might want to look up the details. It is not at all complicated and once signed up nobody on the account would even know the difference.

    But, I also don't want the whole world to sign up via Turkey cos then they'll either increase the yorker price or put in restrictions to make it as complicated as people think it is :)



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,062 ✭✭✭✭Charlie19


    Yeah it's far too complicated to change the sub to a different country and you won't be saving that much money.

    Not to mention it's morally wrong so do the right thing people and keep it legit.;)



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,133 ✭✭✭jonon9


    Even If you try to sign up for a Turkish account they ask for your phone number to send a text, you cant really bypass that with your own.

    Watching The Adam Project, bit meh



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,415 ✭✭✭FullBack Jam



    Watched it last night too. I thought it started really well for the first 45 mins. But it kinda faded away to nothing.

    I generally like Ryan Reynolds films, but I found the interactions between his character and the young fellow started to get annoying after a while.

    If what is wanted is silly light-hearted entertainment, it will tick the box. But not overly impressive in my opinion.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,200 ✭✭✭youcancallmeal


    The Adam Project like a lot of Netflix marquee movies of the last few years is mildly entertaining and immediately forgettable. Not sure why they play it safe with these bug budget movies when they have no box office to worry about

    Really enjoyed this at the time. I'll never forget going to see it in a cinema packed with teenage girls who were all very excited to see Zac take his shirt off (I genuinely overheard a group talking about it).



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 7,880 ✭✭✭appledrop


    Really enjoying Pieces of Her, on episode 4 which is good one as uncovers what is going on.



  • Moderators, Arts Moderators Posts: 24,023 Mod ✭✭✭✭TICKLE_ME_ELMO


    Watched a film called Hello, Love, Goodbye this afternoon. Mistakingly thought it was going to be a fluffy, fun, probably forgettable romcom. Did not expect to be as moved by it as I was.

    It's about Joy, a young Filipino woman working as a Domestic Worker in Hong Kong on a 2 year visa. She's a trained nurse and is trying to save enough in that time to get a visa for Canada, while supporting her family back home too. While illegally trying to earn a bit more cash she meets a bar tender, Ethan, who is a bit of a jack the lad, who wants to have a bit of fun with Joy. She's not interested and only has 4 months left before she leaves anyway. The inevitable happens, but there's so much more to it than just being a romance. There's so much going on for Joy with her job, her family, her hopes and dreams, and the film is really about her. The romance is quite cute, I must admit, but as I said, it goes much deeper than that.

    The opening was giving Love Actually vibes and for about 5 minutes I thought it was going to be a cheese fest, but stick with it. Definitely worth a watch.

    This was a disappointment especially as part one was excellent I thought waste of a great cast and it was so long



  • Moderators, Arts Moderators Posts: 24,023 Mod ✭✭✭✭TICKLE_ME_ELMO


    I see Arcane won big at last night's Annie awards, taking all 9 categories it was nominated in. If anyone missed it when S1 came out last November, it's definitely worth checking out.

    The Mitchells vs The Machines also won big on the film side. I didn't love it, but a lot of people did. Definitely a good alternative to the Disney/Pixar releases.

    I'm in a similar situation to that poster. I had presumed that you'd need to have a VPN when watching Turkish netflix similar to watching US netflix? If not then I must change the sub over, if you do then I don't think my parents would manage that.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 4,128 ✭✭✭Nigzcurran


    There is a thread on here regarding the Turkish Netflix and it says you just need a vpn to sign up
