    Yes watched the first one. Not bad I think it'll be prey good as there are only 13 episodes so not so much scope to go off on tangents like Arrow and Flash.
    I'm going to give Gotham another go once it comes on Netflix.

  2. Gotham gets much better. There were a few on here that want sure, myself included but it's picked up a lot. Can't wait for the last three episodes now

    Yeah I wasn't sure on it and don't love these superhero series in general, but they are ok and worth a watch.

    Once I'm done with Bloodline I'm going to get through Fortitude and then a series called Buried with Morgan from Walking Dead in it.

    Buried has all the makings of a cult show, ignored by the critics and tucked away late night on C4 it has started to build momentum and and as people get to hear about and watch the series the ratings have started to soar, there are calls for another series.

    It's available of 4OD

  5. I'm the opposite, I love the comic book series', I'd rather watch them than other stuff <laugh> I never used to watch TV series', only started because I saw Arrow being advertised, that got me hooked. Obviously, I watched a few none comic versions since too though.

  6. I've heard of buried (good start) but sure I was told its not great :huh: Was told about another one called "one hundred" yesterday, any ideas?

    Any of you guys watch Daredevil on Netflix?
    Been getting rave reviews.
    Gonna give it a look I think, seeing as I have no new Game Of Thrones eps to watch for 3 weeks :(
    Still, Flash and Arrow are back this week tho :emoticon-0140-rofl:

    The 100 had mixed reviews for season 1 but apparently Season 2 is really good.

    Fairly dark in contrast to most of the other comic book adaptations. About 5 episodes in and pleasantly surprised at how much damage a blind guy can do :)

    Hot Tub Time Machine 2 - Not worth the watch. Follows the pattern of sequels falling flat on their face.

    Figured as much.
    Lets face it, there isn't really much more mileage you can milk out of a story about a Jacuzzi that travels in time.
    The first movie was just about watchable, mostly because of its nods to 80's nostalgia.

    Are we saying that the first "Hot Tub Time Machine" was good?

    I wouldnt say good,
    I chuckled a couple times, mostly due to 80's jokes and nods to Cusacks brat pack films of the 80's, but nothing special, a 5/10.
    I have seen worse "comedies"....Meet the Spartans, Date Movie,!! My god they were dreadful

    In general I'm not a comedy person, watched This is 40 recently the sequel to Knocked Up both are ok as we chuckled along to the comparisons to our life.

    I liked that, mostly because I like Paul Rudd and I like the Apatow clan (Leslie Mann and the girls).
    Also he gives a shout out to one of my favourite albums, Doolittle by the Pixies.
