Just saw Ant-Man yesterday evening. Another great Marvel movie and really, really funny. But the best thing for sure was the air-conditioned movie theater, a great escape from the heat in Berlin. :happy-sunny:

it's on my viewing wish list
I saw Inside out a couple of days ago
and sweet Jesus Pixar is good really good at putting me through the emotional wringer
the only way I could describe this film without spoilers is watch the first 15 mins of Up
and imagine that feeling for an entire hour and three quarter film then you get this movie

 

[Wittertainee]

I so want to see Inside Out as soon as possible. But due to absurd distribution politics, it won't be in German cinemas before October 1st. :angry-cussing:

What We Do in the Shadows certainly lived up to expectations, I loved 'Murray's cameo.

It's great isn't it. Murray, love Flight of the Conchords.

I got to see Ep1 of Humans which I really enjoyed.

 

[Catch-up]

Recently saw Avatar for the first time. Visually, wow! Plot.. snore. I can see why Disney is adding it to their Animal Kingdom Park though. It will look stunning!

I'm also in the 3rd season of Death in Paradise and really enjoying it.

Locke.
It's wonderful!

 

[janet]

Avengers: Age of Ultron. Same old mass destruction in order to save Planet Earth from the bad guys. Brilliant!!

 

[Catch-up]

We watched Strange Magic a few nights ago. We weren't expecting too much, but it was really, really good!

 

[Sister Jennifer]

Watched the latest season (5?) of Game of Thrones. Was pretty good. The White Walkers are mad crikey awesome.

Became briefly hooked on 8 Out Of 10 Cats. Actually wasted a lot of time watching that one .

Am about to start watching Last Tango In Halifax, might be a show I'd like.

 

[phalarope]

Big Bang Theory season opener. There is potential here.

Also the 1st 8 episodes of Season 1 of Brooklyn Nine-Nine. I know, I know - I'm behind the times again.

 

[Catch-up]

Finally saw Avengers: Age of Ultron. Not what I expected, but we really enjoyed it.

 

[phalarope]

The Martian. Very plausible. Also right up Rincewind's alley. Saw it in 2-D; not sure what 3-D would do for it.

 

[KnightOfFewWords]

Became briefly hooked on 8 Out Of 10 Cats. Actually wasted a lot of time watching that one .

Have you come across '8 Out of 10 Cats Does Countdown'? That's well worth a watch too, especially if you're familiar with the original show.

 

[Penfold]

I love both but seeing how the original 'Countdown' is very placid, deadpan, and conventional, it's great to see Suzie and Rachel let their hair down.

 

[Sister Jennifer]

Ah yes I did see some of those. We have Countdown over here but it's called Letters and Numbers :icon-rolleyes: Same format, same stunningly gorgeous maths genius but the word finder is a guy.

I haven't enjoyed a panel show as much since QI.

Humans didn't turn out to be as good as I hoped. I haven't had time to watch much lately.

 

[Sister Jennifer]

Oh boy, oh boy. Just watched S2 ep1 of Fargo. Telly Heaven.

[KnightOfFewWords]

I love the film, so maybe I should give the series a try.

Oh Oh! Is it back?! I loved the first season

I watched Oh! What a lovely War.
Ye gods, chilling. Brrr.

 

[Sister Jennifer]

I love the film, so maybe I should give the series a try.

I love the film as well. The tv series is really good.

Spectre the new Bond film really enjoyed it 95% action over all, good back story. :handgestures-thumbupleft: :handgestures-thumbupleft:

 

[Aquamarine]

I'm going to interpret "recently" quite broadly and say The Blues Brothers, after hearing about it so often for so long. Started a little slow, but my word was it crazy awesome after that, especially the last third or more. I almost got up and started dancing during the concert, it was that infectiously entertaining, and I couldn't stop grinning during the increasingly OTT chase scene. Really brightened up my day.
