Just watched 45 minutes of Asteroid City.

Have no real idea, avoid.

Avoid? Smash it into pulp with a spade and bury it under 50 feet of concrete never to see daylight again.

Luv gave it a solid 9.9

I don't mean Solid gave it a 9.9 in case there's any confusion. I don't think he's watched it <whistle>
 
Did not. I did enjoy it though.

It's this sort of stuff that puts me off watching The Father lol

I got to the end and wondered wtf have I just watched.

I don't begrudge Anderson though, every good director disappears up his own arse at some point. Just look at Nolan with Tenet.

It's not one of his better films for sure, I'm just a bit of an Anderson fanboy. I wouldn't recommend anyone to watch it unless you were a big fan.

I'm a fan of Anderson but doesn't mean when he churns out self-indulgent claptrap he gets a free pass. It was hugely disappointing as I was genuinely looking forward to it as the highlight of a year of general ****e. I hope he returns to form next time.

The Dahl adaptations he did recently on Netflix were really good.

I have just watched 2 old comedy series
Hot metal
Drop the dead donkey

Hot metal was not as funny as I remembered
Drop the dead donkey is feckin hillarious, and a lot funnier than I remembered.

Land of bad - 6.4

Would’ve scored around a 7 but for a stupid scene involving a telephone, a basketball game and the army. You’ll understand it if you ever watch it.

Russell Crowe a bit of a podgy **** nowadays too. Bit different from his Maximus Decimus Meridius era.

Got one of those dodgy firestick things, so can watch anything I think.

Have watched nothing, which just shows I've not really got time to watch TV all day.

Still haven't finished Breaking Bad, and have barely started Fargo.

I can watch True Detective though, so should watch series 3 and 4.

Anything else from Sky Atlantic maybe?

Not that I'll have time.

I did watch United v Fulham live today and that was ****e.

I used to love it. I bet it's probably just as relevant and on the mark today as it was back then.
