Um no

Visitor Q - Movies on Google Play
Visitor Q is a 2001 Japanese erotic black comedy-horror film directed by Takashi Miike. It was filmed as the sixth and final part of the Love Cinema series ...

not my cuppa

I certainly wouldn't apply the term 'erotic' to it. :shudder: Ichi The Killer is another one of Takashi's that is rather off the wall, but quite faithful to the manga.

Can recommend Takashi Kitano's Zatōichi from 2003 though. A great reboot in the classic samurai genre style of the 1950-60s. Try and watch it in Japanese and avoid the English dubbed version though.

Wanna see this big time - out June 16

[macdoc]

Not my usual cuppa but hey 6 seasons and a fun send up with some "make you jump" bits.

[macdoc]

Looks good and I like the cast


Both leads familiar from Downton Abbey for Joanne Froggatt and Game of Thrones for John Bradley.
I liked him in GofT

[macdoc]

Good Nordic crime series ...maybe based on true events.

[macdoc]

Nother Swedish noir crime series

filmed in serious winter - decent reviews

Nice to see Dune 2 out on Netflix. When I started watching I realized I'd forgotten lots.
Good feed nearfield on the 55" with the Momentum 4 headphones on, did not miss the theatre screen at all.
However waaaaaay too long at 3 hours for one sitting. So resumed tonight. The rewatch let me fill in details. Getting more and more engaged with Timothy C after seeing his turn as Henry 5 in The King

I gotta think Dune 2 is difficult to follow for those not familiar with the larger story
Still cracking good bit of work

damn I gotta wait til dec 2026 for Dune part 3

On to the Outlaw King

Very dark filming - all natural light, candles, fireplaces, smokie halls with torches.....missing an OLED screen. Daylight scenes are excellent. Sucks having no money....

soapy but good reviews

[macdoc]

ignore the above ...too soapy
....
This tho
Somehow I missed this

Incredible stuff - even the behind the scenes sections - highly recommended

[macdoc]

full episodes are available on Youtube.
I like the Alone series and want to go back to Tasmania. Can't get this on the 50" so not missing it. Wonky internet annoying tho.

Should be on SBS On Demand.

[macdoc]

It is but only for Aus viewers. I am on other forums as well and SBS is wonky for me right now but Youtube is working.
They are all survival experts unlike the first Season - one guy only has one hand, one is a god botherer, the most annoying one who could not stay cuz he missed his kids...and whinged about it on the diaries - he's gone tho . One girl has a cochlear implant, one guy is 63..tough as nails. One girl is tree hugger that goes barefoot and naked when she can - too bad it's blurred out ut
Unlike the first season there are trout around tho not in abundance. Good eels but not all catching them.
Paddymelons and wallabys for hunting. Surprised a handful of earthworms = a burger patty in protein.
Interesting bunch of shelters...some pretty sophisticated but it takes calories to build them, One girl out with a UTI .- She's married to another girl ...show too woke for the US I'd guess,,...she had a steady supply of fat trout from her fish trap....too bad.
It's set in Western Tasmania...they call it the Wild West and it is. We really enjoyed it,

[macdoc]

Been meaning to watch this for a while
Leads are so young

[macdoc]

Well why not ...I like musicals and managed to convince my ailing 4k to work

[Brian Peacock]

Yeah. Went to see that with my off-spring. It's pretty good.
