But its nowhere close to The Boyz and if you haven't seen that, you absolutely should

RIP Tawnee Kitain. She was gorgeous in her day.

I am also watching Jupiters Legacy. The special effects are on par with like Nickelodeon kids movie bad. Just straight trash.

Atleast so far there is somewhat of an interesting story and back story they are trying to show. I like Josh Duhmel but the cast is pretty lousy.

This show is not even on par with the Boyz. It has a close comparison to Power Rangers

Rotten Tomatoes gives Jupiter's Legacy a 34% which tells me not to bother. I find their ratings match my ratings ;-)

They have The Mitchell's vs the Machine at 98% so I'm going to have to give that one a shot at some point

Yea i finished it and its not worth the time. I just have nothing else really to watch. might start going through my imdb watch list. It had a really good story but thats about it. Netflix shouldnt have even tried that genre unless they were going all in. It was like they wanted to attract the adults but to the point their 12 year olds can watch it.

I loved Mitchells vs the Machines... really loved the way the animation used CGI but in a way that gave a feel of hand drawn stuff too...

There is a massive lack of movies and shows out right now. I have been watching nothing but re runs of Daredevil and Punisher, even some Stranger Things.

I watched one episode of new Netflix Documentary on Son of Sam. So far its pretty boring. Not sure if I will finish it

Recenlty re watched old movie The Lovely Bones. Good movie.

Yea I watched the son of Sam doc, it was pretty boring, well done just boring to me

Lovely bones is good, Winters Bone is a good one as well

Marr of East Town on HBO is a pretty good show, nice crime mystery, I reccomend

I figured son of sam was probably not worth it - I watched the first of the sasquatch documentary but not motivated to watch another.

I will watch Mitchells vs the Machine based on good review above and 98% RT rating. Maybe this weekend

Finished this season of Mayans, pretty good overall, lots of things in motion, will be interesting to see where it goes next season.

I like Chris Rock.... In comedies. There is very few actors that could have the range to do comedy and drama/horror/thriller type movies. Robin Williams was awesome at it.

I'll still see it... But him being in it lowered my expectations

Chris Rock is basically Chris Rock which is good or bad depending on if you like him. Honestly it's closer to something like Se7en than it is a Saw movie. Nowhere near as good as Se7en of course.
