Well their only concern in life is pulling off that big Holiday party…

They always act like having a Holiday party is harder than splitting the atom.  

 

"Oh no, Great Grandma hurt her write and can't put the star on top of the tree at the lighting ceremony...what do we do now?!?!"

Yellowjackets is back, Ted Lasso is back.   there's at least 100 minutes a week I've helped you fill.

Never got into Ted Lasso. Couldn't finish the first episode. 

 

Yellowjackets is good though

Feels like you nerds have only seen two Hallmark movies 

Two is twice as many as a person would ever need to see. There’s one story line but dozens of different little towns. Heck most of the main actors are even the same.

 

The last one the wife watched was set in Valentine Nebraska. I wouldn’t have guessed that Valentine was so ethnically diverse

Porn stars think that Hallmark movies use the same actors a lot!

 

And you are totally right, these magical towns set in the Northeast in a town of 2000 some how have

 

500 whites

500 blacks

500 asians

500 indians 

 

And orphans...SOOOO MANY ORPHANS!

Tetris on AppleTv was a  really good interesting movie.  Never knew the backstory to that game.

Watched Outer Range on Prime and really don’t know what to tell you about it. It kept me engaged and watching but I can’t honestly say if I liked it or not. Had a bit of a Yellowstone meets Twin Peaks vibe. Most of the characters have quirks (some quite odd) and there are some other worldly elements. So IDK, watch it….or don’t.

Caught John Wick 4 a couple days ago. If you like the John Wick series, you'll love it. It is shot beautifully and the violence is out of control. It is quite long, I think it clocks almost 2:45 but I barely noticed it. While I loved it and can't wait to watch it again, it is probably 45 minutes too long. The action sequences, while all awesome can get a bit tedious at times.

Just a PSA. Cocaine Bear and Knock At The Cabin are both streaming on Peacock now.

Agree. It was beautifully shot, and if you like Paris the city features heavily in the movie (although there is a comical absence of police, which are HEAVILY present on all streets if you visit).

 

Agree about the fight sequences being too long.

 

 

Spoiler

But otherwise a very good movie and a good way to end Keanu Reeves' involvement in the series. I do wonder if they're thinking of trying to spin off any of the new characters into another franchise, though.

Didn't we have a conversation a few years ago about if Hallmark made porn?

Nice, glad you dug it. You may want to add in the spoilers tag in your post in case someone stumbles upon this and hasn't seen it yet haha. I wouldn't be surprised to see an offshoot of the Nobody character or the female concierge at the Osaka location.

 

Also,

Oops. Good call.

 

I'll have to check that out. That looks like a fun addition to the John Wick universe.
