Weekly “What are you watching” Thread || Week of December 17th, 2023

I've finished:

Fringe S04:
- completely loving this season, so many interesting twists and turns
What We Do In The Shadows S03:
- It’s ok, there’s no laugh out loud moment for me, just couple of chuckles. Still love Matt Berry
The Thick of It S01:
- Again, no LOL moment, just a few chuckles. Also, maybe political comedy is just not for me
Love Death & Robots S01:
- There are some good ones, but I dislike some of the zany episodes, just not my taste. I do appreciate that some episodes are just around 15 mins
Amazing Stories 1985 S01:
- Very boring, it is not Twilight Zone. I might drop the whole thing.

I'm still watching:

JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure S05:
- Still really good. I just realized that, starting from certain arc (maybe Joseph’s), the main characters / party members seem to be shouting / screaming a lot.

Starting:

30 Rock S02:
- I am really enjoying this second season, there’s a lot of absurd situations
Archive 81 S01:
- Enjoying it, I like that it’s not supernatural (your typical ghosts / satan) horror. Kinda like the twist
X-Men Evolution S01:
- This feels like it’s geared towards highschool kids. The 97 animated series feels more… mature / adult oriented?
The X-Files S02:
- Definitely moves faster than S01. I am really liking this season.

So, what have you been watching last week?

Edit: I always forgot that I watched some movies too:

Here they are

Freelance (2023):
- not interesting at all, dropped it halfway
Elle (2016):
- this is Paul Verhoeven’s French movie. It’s a really interesting movie, doubly so when you realized what’s actually happening
Alone Across Arctic (2019):
- Sadly I don’t find the documentary interesting enough
Gangs of Wasseypur - Part 1 (2012)
- This is a good Hindi language movie, somehow reminds me of the golden era of Hong Kong’s triad movies. But there are parts that definitely could be trimmed. 2½ hour is just bit way too long.
Butcher’s Crossing (2023)
- I watched it because I have the sick urge to watch all Nic Cage’s movies. I think this is one of those direct to DVD ones. Something about hunting bisons. Very boring.
