Going to see the revenant tomorrow. Have a bootleg of it, but wanted to wait and see it in the movie.

Saw beasts of no nation this week. That was a very good movie, gonna have to watch it again.

[Homebrewer]

Revenant should be great on the big screen. I saw it from a bootleg also, I'm sure it would have been much better in a theater.

i'm watching Birdman right now. it's really slow. not sure if i'm going to finish it.

Stuck it out. Good performances, and the use of only one camera was novel, but I'm not much if a fan of "let's talk about life and what it all means" movies. Seeing this movie once was enough for me.

The Kids Baking Championship on food network. These kids are 11-13 years old and are amazing. Monday nights at 8:00. A lot of these kids are real charmers.

Anybody else watching Colony?

Saw the revenant finally. Great flick. Kind of a let down like any hyped movie, but it was beautifully shot, and i thought tom hardy was real good. Dicaprio too, but he had less dialogue so i wouldnt say it was his best performance.

Jimi Hendrix: Hear My Train A Comin'. Cool doc on Netflix. Thought I had seen all the Hendrix footage there was, but this one had a ton I had never seen. Really good documentary.

Watched Martian for the second time last night.

I enjoyed the encore more than I did seeing it the first time.

Watched a documentary on President Garfield. What a truly bizarre case of malpractice.

Watched a documentary on President Garfield. What a truly bizarre case of malpractice.

 

i think his assassin tried to make a case in court that what killed him was all the doctors sticking their fingers in the wound. given their lack of sanitary practices back then, you could make a strong case for this today.

 

of course, none of it would have happened if he'd never shot garfield in the first place.

I just watched the first episode of the series "Billion Dollar Wreck" on the History Channel.

 

Story about a British luxury liner that sank off Nantucket back in 1909 and the father and son team that are trying to salvage the wreck.    They claim that there is secret gold on board that is valued in excess of one billion.  The story also explains the obsession the father has with the wreck on how it basically ruined his life up to this point. This is the second attempt since the 1980's when the father tried initially.

 

Very interesting so far.

Finished Season 1 of Homeland last night. Its okay. Pretty outlandish and silly at times. I'll move onto Season 2

[Adam]

I think of it as 24 or Strike Back for adults. 

 

It still has to be a little crazy, but there's some actual characterization and decent writing to go along with it.  

 

Pretty fair assessment. I like the Saul character a ton. Without him, I'd probably be over it.

brodie's daughter becomes really annoying, but his wife is smoking hot.

 

saul holds the show together.

One episode in, and I think it is good. It usually takes me a while, but given the subject matter, this has my interest.

Watched the first 6 episodes of the The Killing

 

Wife and I are enjoying so far. Hopefully is stays this good for the next 3 1/2 seasons

 

Why is it they seem to pick such homely looking girls for these detective shows? Between this one and Broadchurch....
