Was a bit apprehensive about Henry Cavill playing Geralt but it seems to be a good bit of casting so far. He's got the voice nailed on, which is pretty important. All in all a really enjoyable first episode. I'll go through the rest over the next week or so. How far in are you now and have you been able to stop singing "Toss a coin to your Witcher?" I thought it would be a bit shit because it looked like Legend of Hercules with tits but it's actually really good because of that. Cavill is playing a blinder even if it does feel a bit weird to see him in such a B movie type show. The thing that has impressed me most is the practical effects. The Shreiker was bloody terrifying.
WyattSheepMask Posted December 29, 2019 Posted December 29, 2019 Downsizing has been added to Netflix. Really enjoyable film which is completely different to how it’s trailer made it look, well worth your time
Paid Members TheBurningRed Posted January 21, 2020 Paid Members Posted January 21, 2020 Netflix announced yesterday that they’re adding all of the Studio Ghibli movies (except Graves of the Fireflies) from February 1st. They’re coming out in batches of 7, with the second and third ones coming out on March and April 1st. Anyone who’s never seen some of these wonderful films when they’ve been shown on Film4 in the past now has a chance to see them all but one.
Paid Members tiger_rick Posted January 21, 2020 Paid Members Posted January 21, 2020 It was in the movie news thread, pal. The big problem with Mega threads.
Paid Members TheBurningRed Posted January 21, 2020 Paid Members Posted January 21, 2020 Ahh my bad. To be fair, that’s one thread I haven’t been in. So didn’t think to look there.
Paid Members Devon Malcolm Posted January 25, 2020 Paid Members Posted January 25, 2020 Just started Midnight Diner on Netflix and I already love it. One of those simple ideas that works through just really good writing, plus I love a good anthology series. Nice and relaxing viewing, but it will make you hungry.
Members SuperBacon Posted January 31, 2020 Members Posted January 31, 2020 @Keith Houchen the Taylor Swift documentary is now on Netflix. Try not to wank yourself to death please.
ThumpSquids Posted February 7, 2020 Posted February 7, 2020 I was a huge fan of the Locke & Key comic series, and I'd no idea it was being made into a series. It hit my Netflix today!
Moderators Chest Rockwell Posted February 7, 2020 Moderators Posted February 7, 2020 Ditto! Loved the comic, didn't even know this was in the works! I hope it's decent... Or really fucking awful. Because if it's just a little ok then I'll probably have to watch it all anyway.
Awards Moderator Onyx2 Posted February 7, 2020 Awards Moderator Posted February 7, 2020 Bought the Locke and Key comic set for Mrs Onyx last year as a random birthday present (she's a fan of Stephen King and Joe Hill). Only finished it myself last week so really keen to get this started.
King Pitcos Posted February 8, 2020 Posted February 8, 2020 I don't remember if I ever finished the comic, or if I lost my way with it in between the different series coming out (I feel like there were fairly substantial gaps between them). I have started re-reading the first book on Kindle Unlimited at the same time as starting the show.
Awards Moderator Onyx2 Posted February 8, 2020 Awards Moderator Posted February 8, 2020 The best thing of all time has happened.
Paid Members Devon Malcolm Posted February 8, 2020 Paid Members Posted February 8, 2020 There's a Spanish Netflix Original called Mirage that's well worth seeing. Perfect if you like a bit of timeloopy / alternate universe stuff.
Mr_Danger Posted February 9, 2020 Posted February 9, 2020 A Spanish Dark? If there's a Spanish Mads lookalike and some confusing elements of incest I'm in!
BrodyGraham Posted February 10, 2020 Posted February 10, 2020 So how have people familiar with the comic found Locke and Key then? I'm not, but I always heard the comic was a lot more horror focused than this show has been. I've enjoyed it thus far, (I'm up to the finale), bar some dodgy young people's music cues, but again I don't really have a stake in the source material.
