What are you watching?

Didn't saw that, but my girlfriend did and she also likes it.

You may find interesting Doom patrol.

I enjoy watching Cameron Diaz in this.

Recently watched a rather sad movie about a rather sad event. It is called 'The Bombardment'. It's a Danish film about an RAF raid to take out the SS Gestapo headquarters in Copenhagen. Really well done I thought.

 
I just watched Molly’s Game recently. It’s about Molly Bloom. She was a skier who tried out for the Olympics but got injured in the trials. So she started doing underground poker games and made millions, really a good movie.
 
Some comical youtube vids trashing Rings of Power because it isn't following exactly how these individuals think it all should be like. Too funny!
 
I've started the final season of Better Call Saul. Finally something good on Netflix again.
When it comes to storytelling, direction and the right mix of action, atmosphere and drama - and also authenticity or immersion - BCS and especially Breaking Bad are still the benchmark (even if some of it is certainly overdone to satisfy comedy fans as well).

It's really sad how much worse current fantasy series like "The Witcher" or "The Wheel of Time" are in comparison.
And I say that as someone who was originally interested almost only in fantasy and sci-fi, but not in any series about Mexican drug dealers (or even lawyers). But that's the best proof that the subject doesn't really matter that much. Even if you may be very inclined to the topic, a series/movie adaptation can be extremely bad and vice versa...

I guess you might already know...but...

I'm just watching random fan-made Silmarillion trailers and films
 
Started Shining Girls on Apple TV+ last night, not bad so far. My wife read the book and said it's a good thriller so I'm looking forward to bingeing.
 
"Yeralash" ("Ералаш") is a Soviet and later Russian children's comedy TV show. Yeralash also runs an actor studio and the "Yeralash Island" camp. The word eralash means "mixed, mishmash" or "jumble" and is taken from the Turkic languages.
