I don’t watch those for plot and dialogue. I want see smashing and fighting
February 2, 20214 yr Just finished rewatching Eastbound and Down. Fuck Katy Mixon was a smoke show before she got fat. That is all
February 2, 20214 yr The Little Things sucks and I started Band of Brothers for the 758th time so the evening would not be a complete disaster. Curahee!!!

February 2, 20214 yr Started watching Chernobyl (HBO miniseries). Haven't seen it before. 2 episodes in currently. Good stuff.
February 2, 20214 yr Once I saw this had the entire Metalocalypse collection I signed. Tons of content from adult swim, comedy central, abc..

February 2, 20214 yr Watched The Flight Attendant with Kaley Cuoco and really enjoyed it. Really breezy mystery with a lot of humor.

February 5, 20214 yr Ugh, The Little Things had so much potential......Yeah. Not good. Rami Malek is not a great actor. I was mildly intrigued in Mr Robot. Thought he was okay in Bohemian Rhapsody and thought he added nothing in this show.

February 5, 20214 yr The fact there isn't already a 1000 page thread dedicated to Gomorra: La Serie is a gotdamn human tragedy. It is one of the best shows I've ever seen. If you thought the Sopranos was groundbreaking because the protagonist was a sociopath, I present to you Gomorra:La Serie, where there are no discernable protagonists and everyone is more or less murderous, unrepentent, and beyond redemption. That we could spend years across boards and multiple threads hashing over the steaming pile of dogshit that GoT became, and there are like three casual mentions of Gomorra is a travesty. [/sucks teeth]
February 5, 20214 yr Primal is an amazing animated show from adult swim. No script, just screaming, roaring, and a bad ass score. Check it out.

First - Why can't HBO Max and Amazon Prime learn from Netflix how to build a good user interface? If I start watching a series, make it easy for me to continue watching it. HBO Max buries a lot of their content. You really have to search for it to find it. With respect to Chernobyl, it's a 6 episode mini series. Episodes 1,2 and 6 were really powerful. I learned a lot about the story that I didn't know even though I was a senior in high school when the reactor exploded and watched the nightly news about it back in the day.

There's a guy on the gomorra subreddit who has offered to provide the download to anyone who asks, but I'll wait for it to come on max. I heard the same about S.3, and it was good, so I'm hoping S4 isn't as bad as people make it sound. Also keeping my eyes open for the L'Immortale movie, which is billed as both sequel to S3 and prequel to the series

I learned a lot about the story that I didn't know even though I was a senior in high school when the reactor exploded and watched the nightly news about it back in the day. I'm guessing it being an older series it's buried on the newer Max platform. Prime is the worst, at least on my Samsung it's the worst, I find both Amazon and Netflix to be horrible for anything that's not their original content. HBO is the easiest but that has more to do with the size of their library than their app. I can scroll through all the movie options pretty quick. Netflix and prime could get the rights to older great movies and without 3rd parties telling me they are available I'd never know.
February 8, 20214 yr Two separate issues. Browsing/searching the catalogue to see what's available is one thing. Every service has issues with it but there are practical limits to filtering massive data units into a sensible interface. What I'm talking about is some intelligence in helping folks continue watching something they have started. Netflix has a nav bar top of the list to continue watching something - whether a movie or episodic series. Neither Prime nor Max do that. If you start watching a movie or TV series and get interrupted, you have to search for it again, and in the case of a TV series, you sometimes even have to remember what episode you last watched or were watching.
February 8, 20214 yr Gotcha. I think MAX has a continue watching section, but it may only work for movies or not very well at all. I haven't tackled too much since downloading the app a few months ago, but there is an attempt at a continue watching section.
February 8, 20214 yr I'm watching Max (and Prime and Netflix) via my xfinity cable box. It's possible their Android/Apple app has better features than what I'm seeing.
February 8, 20214 yr The Lady and The Dale has been enthralling. I vaguely remember the Dallas portion of the deal. The Duplass Brothers are producing this. Helluva story.

February 12, 20214 yr Rome. The only thing I’m super, super bummed with so far is that skinimax had the 8hr combined, chronological order of the Godfather 1/2. Love that version, and it’s also great to turn on and just let go in the background as well. The old Max app had it before all the merge and mash and shitshow, so hopefully they bring it back. At least all the HBO series are on there, which they should have been anyway, but I digress. Rome, Boardwalk, Carnival, Band of Brothers, and the list keeps going. Plus the other stuff they have now too. Edited February 12, 20214 yr by thunderlounge

February 12, 20214 yr I may be wrong, but I don't think hbomax has much in 4k. The hbogo app had none which was already crazy. I think hbomax may have a few things but it's like the early release movies and not back catalog content.
February 12, 20214 yr "The Little Things" is the equivalent to watching paint dry. So boring. Had pretty high hopes based on the cast but it was not good.

It's a 6 out of 10 so far. Has an interesting premise but the characters haven't been developed much so far. Lots of bad decisions and questionable choices. Reminds me of an 80's horror movie. Hoping it improves or I might bail. An example of the decisions... someone's been murdered! Let's be sure to put ourselves in situations where we can all be killed one by one! And let's not keep on eye on the person we think did the murdering! Also, whenever something has to be done outside, a person on the station goes outside alone. Not just between buildings, but to search for someone, work on equipment, etc. While this may add to the tension, I'm not sure this is really how they do it on an Antarctica research station when it's -30F outside.

February 13, 20214 yr Irresistible, movie from Jon Stewart, Steve Carell stars in it. Small town mayors race becomes national news. Pretty good and shows everything wrong with our current political situation.

February 15, 20214 yr I just signed up for a 6 month long chunk. Flipping through trying to figure out what to watch with the wife. Perry Mason is first up. New Jack City is a great flick. Hard to believe it's 30 years old.
February 15, 20214 yr We have a Free Trial going with this service since the wife bought a new phone, been catching some of my favorites on there, haven't begun to start any of the tv shows.

February 15, 20214 yr I may be the last one here to learn that there's a prequel due in September 2021 for the Sopranos with JG's son playing a young Tony. The Many Saints of NJ.
