I just watched that, really enjoyed it. It was interesting how the filmmakers were part of the story, and seeing how the mental challenge was really the crux of the whole thing. Except for the winner, for him the crux mental challenge was going home.Quote:

Really enjoying The Mind of a Chef.
I loved this movie. Shocked that it only got a 20% on Rottentomatoes.Quote:

Legit is another series I think maggots will appreciate. Just arrived on netflix.
"I'd be a great dad but an awful husband. What would be ideal is if she had the kid and then died soon after. Not during childbirth, I'm not a monster. Preferably after the kid can walk and talk...give her some time to bond with the little guy. I'd still mercy bang her while she was sick....hold her one titty or whatever". (paraphrasing)
"Blue is the Warmest Color" is now available via streaming--pretty sure there was a thread in here about it, but I couldn't find it. Realize it might not be everyone's bag*, but I really enjoyed it and thought it was worth a mention to those who might be interested.
*Three hour, subtitled French film about the evolution of a lesbian relationship. Yes, lots of hot lesbo sex.
Suffering a bit of netflix burnout, waiting for this last season of walking dead, sons of anarchy and other such series to show up, I've been catching more recent movies on roku's m-go streaming rentals. Watching walter mitty now...cool movie.
Watched last night. Came here to post this.Quote:

I finished season 1 of The Following last night. Good vehicle for Kevin Bacon. Creepy concept.
Started out quite well. Beautifully filmed, great soundtrack, some great scenes and writing.Quote:

"Legit" from Jim Jefferies is really funny with some oddly sweet moments as well. A lot is based on stories from his standup but there's enough fresh material to keep fan-boys (I would count) interested.
A couple of classic Connery Bond films just showed up yesterday: From Russia..., Goldfinger, Live Twice, even the moneygrabbing Never Say Never.
Deep Water
Documentary about the Sunday Times Golden Globe non-stop, single-handed, round-the-world yacht race, held in 1968–1969.
Amazing story of a man's descent into madness - Into the Wild in meets The Golden Spruce in deck shoes with a dash of British stiff upper lip in a "jolly good show at giving it your best old chap" accent.
A Fantastic Fear of Everything
Simon Pegg delivers a tour de force of delirium in the first 2 acts. The 3rd act wavers a bit, but overall it's a demented, feverish romp that's worth a gander, especially if you have enjoyed Pegg's work in Shaun of the Dead, Hot Fuzz, and The World's End.
Smash and grab - doc on the pink panthers, a heist crew in yurp.

Tarantino's Kill Bill 1 & 2 are up, kiddo.
Archer (apologies if already mentioned)
"Archer" is fucking hilarious. It's probably been kicked around here before, but I finally started watching a couple months back. OMFG.Quote:

Muscle Shoals
Pain and Gain.
let my inner comic book geek get the best of me and just wrapped a 4-day, 26 episode Young Justice marathon.
loved the art style: part old school Western mixed with just a hint of Eastern influenced anime.
also the story was solid, did what a good comic book story arc or Old School Saturday matinee serial would do: had a deeper storyline that strung you along well throughout each individual episode. Reminded me a lot of the classic 1980's George Perez/Marv Wolfman New Teen Titans comic book.
kinda bummed that they don't have Season 2 streaming, though. Gotta wait for the DVDs from Netflix physical now...
