You can get a firestick to run kodi. I have a friend who made a decent bit of money selling firesticks preloaded with it.

Julian Barratt from the Mighty Boosh. Also, I have a Roku TV which is awesome. It's not smart enough to be a problem with security and means I don't have to deal with another box or stick.

Just started watching Preacher yesterday. I only had time to watch the first episode, but I'm liking it so far. Seems like they've done a pretty good job capturing the essence of the comic.

I'm halfway through Beltracchi on netflix and it's pretty good. It's a documentary about a french guy who sold millions of dollars worth of forged paintings. The guy himself irritates me though and I can't tell if it's his specific personality or the personality of all the rich art people, or french people as a whole. And also I'm seeing ads for a reenactment documentary about Rome with Sean Bean. Good??

I think my biggest unanswered question is the facebook post (which somehow still exists I thought she was basically framing Nick.

). I don't think Gypsy commented on it in the doc, despite being pretty open about everything else she did. They briefly touched on her "multiple personalities" but basically said she was putting on an act for her boyfriend. Maybe that could explain it, but still, going on to Facebook and boasting about a murder (from the perspective of her boyfriend), while deluding yourself into thinking there won't be any consequences seems to indicate some pretty severe mental issues. I hope she can somehow live a well-adjusted life after she gets out.

But then she ran off and wanted to live with him immediately after. I really would like to hear more from her about the whole situation. Maybe since the interview in the film was done before the verdict (I think), she was being more tight-lipped. This begs for a followup movie in ten years once she's been out for a while.

Watched the first season of Santa Clarita Diet. I didn't think I'd like it much, but it's actually pretty funny. It's by the guy that did Better Off Ted so if you liked that you'll probably like this.

LadyPictureShow posted:They made a sequel? What in the Hell? Yeah, and the more time I get to digest it the less I like it. It commits the same sin that a lot of sequels to neatly wrapped up films do in that it fucks everything up in the first few minutes, which just feels lazy. Martin and Mister both appear in it again and what little character growth there is for either of them feels a little contrived and stale. There's a main villain in this who doesn't get built up enough to feel worth a drat. I don't expect fantastic writing out of horror movies but the original was a little more than that. It definitely wasn't a traditional slasher or action-oriented monster murderfest and leaned on its characters and setting to make things interesting. The setting is already established and this doesn't add much interesting to it. It's not the worst movie in the world, it's just kinda there and feels exactly like it was made just because the first was popular enough to justify a sequel.

Five Came Back on Netflix is the companion docuseries to all the ww2 propaganda pieces they put up and it's pretty great. Added some William Wyler movies to my list for sure.

Like I legitimately think she just read about that and decided to do it.

Firestick still suffers from Amazon's terrible UI, but if you do a lot of prime streaming, it's probably the way to go. They cut off chromecast access so the only way to watch prime video with a chromecast is to cast the tab, which isn't always optimal performance-wise.

Nightcrawler is really good. And if you haven't seen Legion yet I highly recommend it, it's nothing like any of the other marvel shows but in a good way.

I watched the first episode last night and I thought it was excellent. My girlfriend and I have been watching a lot of Forensic Files lately, and the show seems like a really well done, extended version of an episode of that minus the bad reenactments. To the dude above looking for something thematically similar to Twin Peaks, maybe give this a shot? No supernatural, black lodge-type poo poo obviously, but I'm guessing things get weird based on the first episode.
