London Fields has a great cast but the movie is awful.

The original novel is great.

Anyone here that watches with subtitles and notice how inconsistent they can be? Like watching American Horror Story and they sometimes have the annoying black background. Other times they don't.
Also was watching Til Death Do Us Part, which is foreign language and the subs are all or nothing. Like there's no option for subs without descriptions, as in "car horn beeps"

There's to be a Big Mouth spin-off series called Human Resources, set in the office that employs and keeps track of the various hormone monsters etc in Monster World. Described as a "workplace comedy", it just has a teaser released so far.

I really think that big mouth show is disgusting, it’s like they are constantly trying to come up with the most vulgar thing to say/do. Gave up mid way through season 2.

The Bill Gates documentary , some of it was interesting but overall I think it was a mess.
They choping between when he was young to when he was older and what happens in his life was told terrible and it really just shines on what he done well.

Those interwoven cartoon scenes were annoying.

But not as annoying as watching Bill and Melinda complete a jigsaw.

And I think it's absolutely hilarious and find it a great pity that kids going through puberty can't (or shouldn't, cos it really is not afraid to tackle or mention... Anything!) watch it.

Started season 3 and really enjoying it so far, consistently funny for me.

Who said they can’t or shouldn’t watch it?

The programs just not for me.

Hes life looks so boring, or if it's not they didn't show it anyhow.

I watched the first episode. It was essentially an hour of a show dedicated to how to process poo. Is the rest of the series like that or does it get any more interesting?

Just what his foundation does, there is 2 other projects they go through.

km79 · 06-10-2019 12:39pm

Have no interest in formula one but watched the documentary based on reviews here
It’s excellent
Episodes only between 30-40 minutes too which is ideal

I’m 2 episodes into unbelievable and it would want to improve fast

Lasted 3 episodes of third season of 13 reasons why
Horrendous

The man who killed Hitler and then bigfoot. Just after watching it and have to say was very good. But of an unusual name but worth a look.

Yeah watched it yesterday as well and found it interesting and engaging. Now I really like Sam Elliot and Aidan Turner was good as well but be warned it is quirky and I can see some people getting annoyed at it as well

Alot of decent episodes in the 'Inside No. 9' series. They are all standalone episodes. Created by Steve Pemberton and Reece Shearsmith, known mainly for 'The League of Gentlemen', a show I never got into watching myself.

Sleeper12 · 08-10-2019 8:08pm

I liked "In the tall grass" Stephen King story and I'm watching "in the shadow of the moon" right now and it's pretty good

I genuinely think Big Mouth is not only one of the funniest shows on Netflix but also one of the cleverest in the way that it handles issues like sexuality and teenager insecurities and relationships. It's not a deep dive drama like Euphoria (I've not seen it but I've heard it's excellent) but it doesn't shy away from them and neither does it make fun of them, certainly not in a malicious way. Just the idea of personifying hormones and shame, I f*cking love it. And some great guest appearances.

I think its hilarious, the Hormone monster cracks me up.

I, and I'm sure a lot of other people, could have done with those themes being included in tv shows when I was growing up. I think it's very positive for young people.

The Irishman has gotten a good review in today's Irish Times. 3.5 hours though ... my god.

johnny_ultimate · 11-10-2019 9:52am

I’ve often been sharply critical of Netflix’s film output - they’ve put out so much absolute junk that it overshadows the good stuff they’ve done. But having seen the superb double whammy of Marriage Story and Uncut Gems (a borderline case, mind, as they’re just distributing it here) in the past few days and have a Breaking Bad movie, a new Sion Sono film and the Irishman to look forward to over the weekend... they’re on a bit of a roll tbh.
