I’ve never seen any the LOTR or Hobbit films. Seems like too much of a commitment.

Same with the Avengers.

Are they worth the hours to get through them all??

No.

LOTR- absolutely.
The hobbit - if you watch LOTR and love it, then yes. If you don't then no.
Avengers - I enjoyed watching them as they came out, but don't think I'd sit through them all in a row

Half way through the 2nd series, not as good as series 1 so far.

Getting worse with each episode viewed.

Ha ha..... You've commented a few days ago that you watched some bang average James Nesbitt series but you don't have time for the LOTR films?! Madness.

You should watch the extended versions and just treat it like a TV show. 1-2 hours per sitting and it'll be done in 10 hours or so. Some of the best films of all time. Or even better if you can, watch them at the cinema.

Hobbit films aren't great and Marvel films are good but probably not worth the time to work back on the dozen or so films that lead into the last Avengers films.

LOTR is incredible though.

Same here. Never seen any Marvel stuff what so ever. None of the others interest me either.

I fell asleep during on of the LOTR movies at the cinema…woke up and they still hadn’t found the gold ring up the volcano or whatever.

Just goes to show that what some people find incredible others just find incredibly boring!

I liked the LOTR films well enough. Didn't stick with the tv series.

Watched Doctor Strange movie because Benedict Cumberbatch was in it. Liked it. Watched the sequel - had no idea what was going on. The protagonists had all been involved in other movies in the meantime, so I was lost. Unless you watch the lot and in the right order, I wouldn't bother with any.

Was flicking through an old drive I have and found a new thing to watch and something to rewatch. So I started re-watching The Mentalist, it was an American series about 'psychic/mentalist' turned police consultant that helped the Californian Bureau of Investigation solve crimes, I loved it first time around and got right back into it. If you've not watched it before it is worth a wee watch if you're into crime fiction, no blood and guts, no swearing just prime time American TV doing what it is meant to do, entertain. The clips are popular on TikTok I am told.

The new thing I found started in 2019, I am surprised I never seen this at the time but it was on Disney+ so thats probably the reason. It is The Godfather of Harlem a bio (loosely based on his life) series about Bumpy Johnson a black crime boss who comes back to Harlem after a 10 year jail term. Only watched the first one but it was a beauty, great cast lead by Forest Whittaker and Vincent D'Onofrio both of whom rank high on my list of favourite actors. Can see myself getting hooked on this, there is three seasons to enjoy. I really hope it keeps up the standard of the first episode! This one is not for the faint hearted, lots of swearing and violence, language used is of its time and place.

I’ve tried the Godfather Of Harlem a few times. I enjoyed it initially but each time I’ve drifted away from it after a handful of episodes, without thinking it was poor. It ticks all the boxes but for some bizarre reason it doesn’t hold my attention for long.

Just checked out the trailer, feels a bit like Alice in Borderland and Squid Games, will definitely give it a try. Japanese and Korean TV is a goldmine of great TV if you avoid the over dramatic soap opera type shows that can dominate.

You should have a look at Crow's Blood, it's mental. 😳

[cabbageandribs1875]

dunno how i let this one slip through but i noticed a Squid Game-The Challenge when i was looking through my IPTV TV shows last weekend so binge-watched the 10 episodes,really enjoyed it, it was actually released last November and was the most watched on Netflix and number one in 74 countries winner won $4.56m, largest ever for a reality TV show, though filmed in UK it seemed to be mostly yank contestants

I watched the first episode of the second season then lost interest or I think I might have started another show. All of us are dead is excellent, fast paced action filled with enough gore to make me happy.

Id recommend Concrete Utopia and Badland Hunters too, post apocalyptic films set in a destroyed Seoul. Well worth a watch.

[Pretty Boy]

The feature length documentaries the BBC are doing in the run up to the Olympics are really good. Been one about Daley Thompson and Linford Christie so far. The latter in particular was pretty harrowing viewing, the racism he faced from the press was unreal. Not sure if there are any others planned but these 2 are both excellent.

Was a huge fan but not so much the latest series

Lots of long drawn out silences with not a lot happening before the next shouting match and pretentious background music but only half way through got to say they don’t hold back on budget with guest appearances but looks as though they are stretching it out

I just finished series 3 ace thought it was great. Definitely could have done with fewer scenes with nothing happening, though!

Badlands Hunter is on Netflix. Concrete Utopia I had to go to a streaming site base in the far east. I'll DM the details

[Andy Bee]

Snowfall.... I hadn't heard of this series before but it apparently started in 2017. Based around the introduction of crack cocaine in LA in the 80s and the gangs involved in that. I'm addicted (no pun intended), 6 series to get through on BBC Iplayer and the soundtrack alone is worth the watching of it.

[Moulin Yarns]

Looking forward to time bandits on apple TV.

LOL! I actually noticed it trying to set up subtitles for my Mrs on Disney+ for The Bear difficult to do for this dinosaur but even more difficult when there is no dialogue Noticed going through Series 3 there are lots of monologues will probably end up getting nominated for another Emmy First class script writing

Their was another series before Rick & Michonne about Daryl Dixon i enjoyed them both

Oddly enough the Daryl series comes after the Rick and Michonne programme in the chronological timeline that I saw recently.

The Daryl series starts on Sky Max on Thursday.
