Really recommend The Undoing. That slow mystery, courtroom drama that doesn't shy away from a little gore and in-your-face jaw drops.

 

it's fantastic, yes

 

it's probably the best hugh grant has ever been, which is kind of wild

 

I'm a big Hugh Grant fan, a friend and I were discussing him as an underrated modern day Cary Grant type recently

 

Dave Chappelle says Netflix removed 'Chappelle's Show' from service at his request - CNN

Well that was fast

 

Has anyone watched Patriot on prime? I’m 3 episodes in kinda love/hate it.

 

Heard it’s great, but haven’t started it

 

One of the most underrated shows of the past few years. It is excellent.

 

Patriot is v good

 

Adding to the Patriot love.

 

Happiest Season was great

 

Any discussion on Undercover on Netflix? Im rather digging it

 

"Hillbilly Elegy" is like an R-rated Kirk Cameron movie. What the hell happened to Ron Howard?

 

was he ever good

 

I liked Frost Nixon

 

The DB Cooper doc on HBO Max is wild. So crazy how all of these suspects exist with such wild stories.

 

Apollo 13 and Frost/Nixon are solid but he has mostly misses

 

I haven’t seen the movie but the source material for Hillbilly Elegy is complete bullshit and right wing propaganda. It basically claims that rural Appalachia is struggling with unemployment and drug addiction because they spend too much money on TVs and aren’t manly enough like they used to be. It’s insulting nonsense.

 

For sure. I never read the book and have absolutely no desire to. I was more interested in how the movie would navigate it. It 100% took me back to the days of our youth group showing the Kirk Cameron-adjacent “life lesson” movies, where the poor Christian guy is looked down upon by them fancy city/liberal folk (though this side steps politics for the most part). It absolutely sucks.

 

Anyone watch any of the Saved by the Bell reboot?

 

I also haven’t read Hillbilly Elegy, but the movie makes zero effort to engage with the political aspects of the story. It’s mostly just a bland biopic with a few great moments for Glenn Close.

 

Hillbilly Elegy seems like a waste of talent, amazing I have no desire to watch a movie with Amy Adams and Glenn Close lol


also I couldn't remember why the guy was shitty but working with Peter Thiel is worse than what I would have imagined haha

 

It’s hard for me to imagine the movie not being political, it seemed as though that was the main point of the book. It’s even more baffling someone would want to do a straight biopic of this chud’s life.

 

AD narration top tier

 

Not yet but I’m definitely interested.
