Currently on Volume 7 of the manga. I have 7, 8, 9, and 10 from the library. After I finish I plan on watching it on Crunchyroll.comNow two episodes into Frieren: Beyond Journey's End (Sōsō no Furīren 葬送のフリーレン) on Crunchyroll.
Watching Sugar on Apple+ with Colin Farrell. It’s an interesting modern detective fiction with some strangeness going on. Really well done. The latest episode had quite the twist.
Curious if anyone else is watching this show?
I wouldn't say over, just moved online.man, it is mostly trash, the Golden Age of tv is well and truly over.

Watched Rebel Moon 2 which was better than Rebel Moon. The ending indicates a Rebel Moon 3, which would be good to see.
Currently watching Dead Boy Detectives, on Netflix, which is surprisingly enjoyable.
I noticed that was on, but did not get a chance to see it, since Saturday night is dedicated to Midsomer Murders, at my wife's quite reasonable request.Watching The Land That Time Forgot on Svengoolie.

Before that started, I did manage to catch a few minutes of the truly awful Inseminoid (1981). One of those movies where the dialogue and direction are worse than what my friends and I did for our Super-8 home movies as teenagers.

I had no expectations, having watched the first one. It was more action, apart from the first half hour, and we knew who everyone was so it had less introducing everyone.I don't know how you did it, it was worse than the first one. Which is hard to believe, I think I got around 20 to 20 minutes into it before I stopped watching. Did a remove from my list and then did a remove from continue watching.
I'd read that Dead Boy Detectives was really enjoyable. I'm not sure I want to watch Baby Reindeer, it sounds really uncomfortable.I had no expectations, having watched the first one.

In other news, I finished Dead Boy Detectives, which was really enjoyable. Then I watched Baby Reindeer which was very powerful, very weird, and compelling.
Yeah Lexx is oddly compelling. I still feel drawn to it at times, yet never watched it in it's entirety or any logical order. I'll have to watch it properly somedayI could never get into Lexx when it first came out (no pun intended). The massive penis ship with its nutting attack was a bit much. Special effects were in line with MST3K. And yet, now, I find the show oddly compelling. How much they were able to do with so little.
And the premise! A universe of "light" ruled by an evil overlord--and everyone avoids the "dark" universe which is supposed to be WORSE.
Now two episodes into Frieren: Beyond Journey's End (Sōsō no Furīren 葬送のフリーレン) on Crunchyroll.

How I got through the first one, was by reading the forums here and reading through a ttrpg pdf. Otherwise I'd never have gotten through the first one and I utterly failed on that second one.Jesus. I had to grit my teeth to reach the end of both movies. Snyder should really, really hire a decent scriptwriter.
I enjoyed the first movie. I didn't even enjoy it ironically, like "this is so bad it's good." I just had a good time watching it.How I got through the first one, was by reading the forums here and reading through a ttrpg pdf.

That's a seriously nice view of the issue. See, I was thinking that maybe, just maybe, he shouldn't be allowed to make movies anymore...
He's technically proficient, he just has *NO* idea about how to write a good story (or any story, for that matter).
He could also do with someone helping him in framing the scenes... which, come to think about it, a good scriptwriter can also do.

Yeah, my wife and I both didn't think that "The Grey" was very good. Though I could definitely see some solid ideas that you could make use of for RQ.It is really uncomfortable.
Maybe I am easier to please.
Currently watching Parasyte: The Grey on Netflix, but it isn't very good. However, it has given me a great idea for a new Monster for Dorastor, so was worth watching just for that.

I thought that Pierce Brosnan was a bit too good-looking for the part, but only a bit, and perfect in every other way. I liked the way he moved through a set as Bond — like an athlete rather than a model. Timothy Dalton was the right degree of "rather good-looking, in a way", "cruel-looking", and "a bit like Hoagy Carmichael". But you could almost see him wince with every line he delivered.
Brosnan had rather bad luck with the whole thing. He was cast to replace Moore when Remington Steele was cancelled, in 1986. And that generated enough publicity that NBC un-cancelled Remington Steele and held Brosnan to his contract. So Albert Broccoli cast Timothy Dalton instead. Which was a loss of at least two outings for Brosnan as Bond while he was still in his thirties.
And then when he did come in it was in an era of silly plots and crappy dialogue.
I quite like Moore too, The Spy Who Loved Me is the best of his run, I think. Would like to revisit it and a few others.
Moore was the right Bond at the right time for me as a kid in the '70s and early '80s. The silliness was a bonus then. I liked Connery's movies, but they were a bit dry for me at that time. I had to grow into his version.The first movie I can ever remember seeing was Live and Let Die, which I saw at a drive-in with my parents when I was 4 or 5 years old. Was a double feature with The Mechanic, starring Charles Bronson.
Roger Moore was the Bond I grew up with. I didn't even know there was another Bond until years later when I gleefully sat down in front of the TV to catch a James Bond movie on broadcast network television (The CBS Sunday Night Movie or something along those lines) and it was some totally different guy playing Bond. I remember thinking "Who is THIS guy?!?"
Growing up, I'd always heard how Moore was an inferior Bond, and that Connery was the superior iteration of the character. And I didn't get it. Moore was Bond as far as I was concerned, because I'd imprinted on him like a baby duck. He defined the character for me. He was suave and debonair. He was the kind of guy who could take a sip of wine and tell you which side of the mountain the grapes had grown on. And he had killer one-liners. And there was always that final scene where he blows off his superior officers to bang the latest Bond Girl.
Over the past year, I have been rewatching the whole Bond series with my son. The last one we watched was For Your Eyes Only, and now that I am older and wiser, I understand why people dislike Moore. Connery had an edge that Moore didn't have. Moore never felt like a killer on a leash. Connery felt exactly that way.
Moore also got saddled with some mediocre movies. The Spy Who Loved Me is great and For Your Eyes Only is great and the rest are middling-to-bad. Live and Let Die is not good, The Man With The Golden Gun was only marginally better, Moonraker was damned silly, Octopussy was forgettable, and A View to a Kill was terrible. Maybe public opinion of him as Bond would be better if they'd given him better movies.
Just finished Frieren volume 10 manga last night. I think that's all that has been released atm. The anime is on my watch list but haven't got to it yet. Currently watching Delicious in Dungeon anime and started reading vol 2 of the manga today. Recently picked up the 1st two deluxe volumes of Vinland Saga that I will get to at some point before I watch the anime.I just watched Vinland Saga, an anime series I hadn't gotten around to seeing on Netflix. Not bad by the standards of such thing, and I think the manga it was based on picked up one or two gongs. I've not been that much of a weeb in a while, although I did watch Frieren: Journey's End the other day, which was also pretty good.

I liked Vinland Saga at first but as it progressed the typical pacing issues and cliches of so much modern tv anime dragged it down imo.
