Been watching this show. I know it’s a bit old and many people may have seen it, but I think it could be the funniest thing I’ve ever seen. Every episode is a 10
Stallone nailed it in this one by going back to the roots of "First Blood" from 1982. No over the top hero stuff, just a war vet with PTSD and a past, trying to cope, but life manages to throw a hard curve ball at him by drawing first blood.
The story is heartbreaking, the fight sequence is very tight, brutal, nostalgic, and reminiscent of the first movie, and the end credits sequence with shots from previous Rambo, especially "First Blood" almost brought a tear to my eye.
I watched the previous ones as a kid in the 80s, and with this last one concluding the story after more than 35 years (no spoilers), one feels like losing a close friend.

Taken for the first hour, Home Stallone for the rest half hour. I wish it was more Home Stallone.
The Witcher is a pretty decent watch. Am 4 episodes in and I haven't cringed yet.

I am not understanding much of what's going on https://migrationtest.mapcore.org/topic/22298-th…&comment=453706
feels they are keeping things too high-concept for me (kind of to stay true to the books – dunno if it makes sense of what i mean)

This makes me feel better. Maybe is the movie we actually needed... I've read the Rambo book (tens of times!) and spoiler alert, if it was for David Morrel, there wouldn't be any Rambo series to talk about.
A nice Sunday afternoon movie that doesn't take itself seriously; some light-hearted comedy with some zombie slashing while poking fun of itself.
Emma Stone is a good reason to watch it

I actually watched it not stoned yet still thoroughly enjoyed. Perhaps I should watch the second one.
1917 was an incredible visual tour de force. my favourite scene the chase lit by flares. The music that goes with it was superb.
I don’t think the trailer makes justice to the one-shot trickery
It has been a while since I've watched something. But the last thing I remember is A Grand Budapest Hotel. Truly a gem
A new show dedicated on Bitcoin
Mr. Robot finale! This is one of the best shows.. I'm currently watching Better Call Saul Season 5 and it's fantastic! I Also burned through all 5 seasons of The Wire in early 2020. One of my favorite shows of all time. Great mix of police work, gangsta action, politics, drugs, sex and burner phones! Keep the suggestions coming! I suspect we'll all have a lot of time on our hands in the coming months...
Over 10 years since I watched The Wire, still think about it sometimes. Great show

Yeah i think Better Call Saul is one of the best shows ever written, at least among the shows i've watched. I'm not the only one:
I need to return to Mr Robot, but I'm waaay back, I watched a couple episodes of S2 last year and never continued.
Suggestions: You could try Startup (Amazon at least in UK), I liked S3 the best I think. I only watched a couple episodes and always wanted to go back to Halt and Catch Fire, to stay on the IT theme. For the crime genre, have you watched Ozark? New season in a few days. There's The Outsider I'm watching atm, it's from Stephen King.
And I agree with you @blackdog about Better Call Saul; I also recommend you go back and re-watch Breaking Bad for a 2nd time after watching BCS: you will see BB from another perspective now that you know the backstories of most of the characters and how it led to the events of BB.

I would wait the end of BCS before seeing Breaking Bad again (although the temptation was there many times)… I haven’t investigated if this is the last BCS season or there’s more before the stories join up.
Anyway since we are talking about the genius of the show runners, in case people haven’t seen this analysis
I haven’t had the chance to watch El Camino yet, we meant to watch together with friends and then the novelty passed, and I’m always too tired to watch movies by myself

There will be a season 6 next year which is expected to be the final season (though not 100% confirmed). Expect the final season to have episodes interconnected with Breaking Bad timeline (so I heard, and even mentioned by Gilligan/Gould, the producers at one time)
The current season (season 5, events in late 2004 early 2005) is already pretty close to BB timeline (mid 2008), and Jimmy is already 99% Saul (still this 1% of Jimmy/conscience present that needs to die before the complete transformation :)); he's already having some serious shady deals with the cartel.
Don't wait up until all seasons are done, I would recommend you binge back on BB right after season 5 finale; that's what I would have done
