Q: What are you watching (TV/Streaming/Movies) and want to recommend?

Just finished watching the Six Triple Eight on Netflix last night. Incredible, true story.

I'd like to bitch slap their military consultant. Those salutes (like the one in this screen shot) are horrible. You ALWAYS cant your salute downward and NEVER show the palm of your hand.

We just watched Ready Player One for the 10th time... fun and entertaining. Why can't they have real wars using video games! :P

I've never seen that one, but considered it when it came out because of a co-worker's recommendation. I should pick up a copy at the library and see if it's worth adding to the permanent home library.

It's free on RoKu if you have that. We noticed tonight that the music and references to pop culture were from our generation, but its a kids movie. Maybe Spielburg was thinking of capturing both marketes, young and old. Hmmm... Still a fun movie without real violence, meaning video game violence. Maybe its me, but anymore I hate seeing good cars getting smashed up in a movie. I am thinking... "F MAN! I could have fixed that car up for a daily driver!.... what a waste!" :facepalm:

It was a book before it became a movie. They had to leave out a lot of additional pop culture references because of .. copyrights and stuff. 😉
 
Ascanner darkly, very good adaption of the story. on Prime

Rarely, if ever see a proper salute in movies or television. That is a common rant from my dad. That and how easily they can always lift perfect fingerprints off of anything in crime shows.

It's pretty much endless what you can see there, most of it is NOT top hits though. Try the Porn section. :P

(just kidding, I don't think they have a Porn section...

Do they?)

My wife and I were just discussing how NetFlix targets what you have watched. If you watch violent, shoot em' up movies, that is what will be pasted on every section of your account. If you start noticing you are getting a lot of stuff listed that is similar to what you just watched, delete the user and create a new one. Just because I watched a Korean action movie, I got hit with tons of Korean stuff to watch. Seriously? You watch one Porn, ... er .. Kids show and you get blasted with tons of the same stuff! Yikes, big brother is watching!!!

Drive to Survive (Formula 1 documentary/series)

There are others I'd recommend but It all depends on what your tastes are ...

If you like action packed and bloody anime, check out Blue Eyes Samurai, Castlevania, Castlevania: Nocturne, and your algorithm will grow from there.

If you like car stuffs, Senna is pretty good. Then there's the GrandTourismo movie as well
 
I went to see a movie just to have a movie theater experience (only 2 in the last 10 years, original jurassic park in 3D and the new top gun). I look around the schedule to find an old classic reshowing, but I was intrigued by the movie Companion. Loved it. Great movie. Watch it soon! Go in blind if you can, but still good if you dont

Now I need to finally go and give the movie Cherry 2000 a try

Great watch to see how creatively bankrupt today’s culture is when even the modern #battlecar concept is regurgitated from a B movie from the 1980s(which is pretty much what all modern trends are a watered down rehash of)

This came across my feed tonight, admittedly one of my all time favs well from not only before YT but my own existence. A oner of reckless driving for 8:30 straight without a single accident that no one in modern day Instagram/TikTok era has been able to display for more than literally 26 seconds without a horrendous accident.

Very interesting. I never knew about this film. I have lived in Paris for four years, so yeah, I knew immediately this had to be an early Sunday morning. You walk out of a nightclub; the streets are empty; those were the days.

Funny enough I wondered if you’d known about this film being our own internationally privy member lol based on the lore I have read that’s exactly what it was; early Sunday morning, the actual camera car was a V8 Mercedes for camera stability, and the audio was recorded from a Ferrari 275GTB doing the same route.

I'd actually like to hear that Mercedes' sound. I think that specific S-Class V8 6.9 used the Citroën DS suspension system under license, which explains the relatively stable imagery.

Seeing pictures or film of Paris is definitely an emotional experience for me. I lived there in the first half of my 20s. It was beautiful and crazy and completely uninhibited.
 
drive made a video with Alex Roy (probably one of the first famous "modern cannonballers") going over the Rendezvous movie scenes. .its a lot like watching a dvd back in the day and listening to the directors commentary track.
