Finally found the time to watch Fargo S2 on Hulu, and you can put me in the loved it even more than S1 column. All of the early aliens and UFO references got my hopes up that the show was going to just go for it and get weird, and I was not at all disappointed.

I am split down the middle between s1 and s2. I can't tell which one is better. I think they are both perfect. That said s3 was quite the let down especially given s1 and s2, and my love for Carrie Coon.

Are there any good space movies on Netflix/Prime/etc? Something like a space opera, or like Alien, or even like Dark Star?

I can't remember the name to see if it's still on the 'flix, but there's a "space" movie with Dane Cook that is kind of a horror kind of scifi I watched that was pretty good. Dane Cook and Friends are put in a fake spaceship to see how a long trip to mars would affect people, but was it a fake spaceship???? only one way to find out

Unrelated to space, everyone go watch To The Bone right now.

If you like old dudes + modern noir, and you like long takes, watch Too Late. It stars John Hawkes and the whole movie is shot in 3 or 4 takes. I think it's on Netflix but I may have seen it on Prime. It's a gem.

Can confirm Too Late is on Netflix

Girlfriend's Day is pretty entertaining. You've got Bob Odenkirk being Bob Odenkirk, Toby Huss as a "reformed" Aryan Nation member, some quirky twists and lots of dry humor. Also Andy Richter in a small but delightful cameo. Definitely worth a watch if you like screwball indie comedies.

Prime's got Interstellar. Show people probably hated it and it's VERY Nolan, but I liked it a lot, particularly the space bits.

I mean, it's a full-on space exploration movie with a huge budget. It's by no means perfect, but how many of those do we really get per year? Per decade even? I'm just happy someone like Nolan, who basically has carte blanche to do whatever he wants, decided to that kind of science fiction at least once in his career.

i liked interstellar a lot, but rewatching it as a parent was a lot more emotional and devastating than i expected. i can't even think about rewatching the arrival, or even looper but i probably will because they're both excellent movies.

The second act of Interstellar is great but the other two fall flat for me, but I know I'm in the minority being lukewarm on Nolan anyways.

Thanks for whoever recommend Goliath on Amazon, I'm only two episodes in but I'm really into it.

I finished Goliath last night and really dug it all. While I didn't care much for the Patti character at first, she really grew on me and the actress really nailed the role. Looking forward to season 2... there will be another, right?

With this one and Patriot Amazon is really starting to compete with Netflix for good original content.

I don't like Nolan at all so I get it man. I think he is kind of a hack who can't direct a third act to save his life.

Following, Memento, Insomnia and The Prestige had stellar third acts, so it's more of a "post-Batman Nolan" thing I think.

e: I think the deal with Netflix not putting Rogue One on the front page is so their servers don't get completely destroyed, they've done that with several big releases that I can recall, where after a few days it would get put on the front page but the first couple days they just quietly slipped it on there

Can i inspire you for a tv show?

Dark MattersDark Matter is a interresting series from the stargate (series not movie) producers or if you like it more for adaults give The Expance a bit time.

If it is not realy space you are interestet and open for a bit more crycines take a look for Legion or if you like more the opera Sense8 is realy the time worth.

But for space "The Expanse" is for me the hotest since the new version of Battlestar Galactica :angel:]

Goliath does the same thing as Bosch, where everyone inexplicably wants to gently caress the main character, but in Goliath Billy Bob is down to literal junkie levels of skinny and goofy looking and he plays it off like "Why in the world are you attracted to me?" Part of what makes the show so good is that he's clearly having such a goofy time with it, like William Hurt is taking his role super seriously and the tone of the plot is often really dark but Billy sounds like he's not even acting, just being his own goofy drat self.

I can think of three women who want to bang Billy Bob in the first 4 episodes alone - the one he does bang, his hooker secretary, and his ex-wife, one of whom even literally has a short monologue about how irresistable he is.

With Bosch I guess it's less that a lot of girls wanted to bang him and more that every scene of him banging was filmed like an embarrasing softcore skinemax porn

Okay I'll give you Goliath, it's been a little while since I watched it.

But yea, the few Bosch sex scenes were like late night USA poo poo.

I appreciated that Goliath skirted the "rear end in a top hat with a heart of gold" trope and kept us suspicious all the way through that Billy Bob's character was really just doing it to stick it to his old partner. And that that kind of vindictive, relentless dog-with-a-bone gristle is actually what makes for a great lawyer.

Yeah it's good and gets a lot of critical buzz but I haven't seen much goon love for it. It's solid though.

I'm pretty sure at this point Amazon is beating Netflix in a "quality vs quantity" way. Like I swear every single time I open up Netflix there's some new "Netflix Original Show" that I have never heard anything about.

I'm regretting my Seeso membership. I've watched pretty much all of their original programming and they are just not producing enough new shows to justify the monthly subscription. Maybe if it was $1.99 or something
