Angelica Posted November 2, 2019 Share Posted November 2, 2019 (edited) Dolemite Is My Name is an absolute joy. Very much the spiritual successor of Burton’s Ed Wood. It’s written by the same guys and it often plays like a remake with different characters, while still honoring Moore as affectionately as they did Wood. I don’t know how anyone could resist the charm of Murphy when he’s actually...well, trying. Hopefully he won’t retreat back into prosthetics and semi retirement like he did after Dreamgirls.

Loved this flick. It was a reminder that anyone can accomplish anything as long as they have a positive attitude and they treat those around them with respect. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought that was a really good doc. Side note; I finished the last season of You're The Worst since it was finally on Hulu. Really awkward season but it had some good moments.

RussTCB Posted November 26, 2019 Share Posted November 26, 2019 Currently watching Castle Rock on Hulu. Outside of Lizzy Caplan, there's some real shitty acting going on during this season... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, dang, Im just about to start Season 2 I liked season 1 even though Krasinski reminds me of his Jim Halpert character from The Office. Sometimes its distracting.

RussTCB Posted December 1, 2019 Share Posted December 1, 2019 We started watching The Morning Show on Apple TV. It's not the greatest show I've ever seen but it's better than the reviews make it out to be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RussTCB Posted December 12, 2019 Share Posted December 12, 2019 Just started watching Marvelous Mrs Maisel on Amazon Prime today. I'm 5 episodes into season 1 and this show is every bit as good as I've heard. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
appetite4illusions Posted December 13, 2019 Share Posted December 13, 2019 "The Confession Killer" I'd heard the name Henry Lee Lucas a bunch of times and knew him from his braggadocios claims that he had killed hundreds of people and could recall them in stunning clarity...I really was ignorant of the other side of the coin - the Texas lawmen who set him up to be the biggest patsy in American crime - because he didn't do any of it... Its stunning to me that the real nature of this hoax flew under the radar the way it did, because I knew almost none of this story: A con man who allows himself to be conned by the cops. Says a lot about the wave of fear that "Serial Killers" caused in the last part of the twentieth century. Lucas was basically a pheasant who talked himself up to the level of the Boogeyman, but not without LOTS of help from the Texas Rangers who have the most blood on their hands at the end of the day.

RussTCB Posted December 29, 2019 Share Posted December 29, 2019 Barely made it through Kevin Hart: Don't Fuck This Up on Netflix. What a tone deaf documentary about a clearly tone deaf person. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MillionsOfSpiders Posted December 29, 2019 Share Posted December 29, 2019 Don’t Fuck With Cats - horrifying but also fascinating to watch. Just when you think it couldn’t get any more sick and crazy, it does. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, about 10 minutes into the first episode I thought "well, this is awful" lol. I ended up leaving it on in the background while I did things around the house. 12 hours ago, MillionsOfSpiders said: Don’t Fuck With Cats - horrifying but also fascinating to watch.
