What movies or TV shows are you watching (2018)

[SooKee 1,004]

Watched "The Favourite" last night and wasn't overly impressed with it, and Queen Anne's supposed lesbian tendencies were given too much free rein by the producer, as without this, the movie wouldn't have worked.

Main reason I've put this and Mary Queen of Scots (2018) on the Movies Binned list.

Actually thought that "Mary........." was a better movie!

Check out

 

The Drug King

 

Korean version of Scarface I guess.

 

Looks like a true story...the guy who plays the lead in Old Boy is in it.

Actually there were some elements of truth in it SooKee, esp as regards the internal conflicts in the court and family of Mary. A bit like the Elizabeth movies, elements of truth, but not in the correct timelines, but the director/producer tries to cobble something together that is "interesting" and of course makes money!!

Got so many movies to watch at the moment; easier to just post my d/l list. The first four on there are Japanese, after having watched Shoplifters, which was extremely good, I looked for more that have good ratings.

El Recluso AKA The Inmate

 

Watching this one on Netflix and really enjoying it.
Based on the excellent series El Marginal.

Summary: An American SPEC OPS infiltrates one of Mexico's toughest prisons in search of information
on the whereabouts of an American politician's daughter.

Seinfeld reruns.

[Yellowtail 1,005]

"Jerry Before Seinfeld" was good

[JHolmesJr 10,965]

Loved this one....the pace, the story, the sheer pointlessness.

Location is Bodrum....great place....if only Pattaya was like this.

TPB has it - or at least they have "Holiday" (2018).

Assume it's the same.

The Trailer says 2019 so not sure if it's the same, I'll download anyway.

I just checked - JHolmesJr said it takes place in Bodrum, and the blurb on TPB says the same.

IMDB lists it as 2018 and Bodrum.

 

Probably still being sold to additional territories in 2019 so they upped the date.
