Out today on netflix - got info from that other site..

"Sentient dairy products, werewolf soldiers, robots gone wild, garbage monsters, cyborg bounty hunters, alien spiders and blood-thirsty demons from hell - all converge in eighteen NSFW animated stories."

Huh I think I'll check that out. Normally I wouldn't be interested in it cause it's animated (animated stuff and cartoons just aren't my thing) but dang, it looks pretty interesting. I will give it a shot.

I'm sure there are plenty of paths he would have died climbing, which is the reason he strategically picked the path he did. No matter how hard the other paths are, what he did without any harness is infinitely more impressive than anything done with a harness. Like it's not even in the comparable realm IMO. It's comparing his giant watermelon sized nuts to the pea sized nuts of regular people.

It was a superb doc.I was more nervous watching it than he was climbing it.I liked what he said after he completed the karate kick,"oh yeah"

 

[Zanovar]

Great documentary. definitely recommend it even if you don't climb because as Pur said its beautiful with a pucker factor of 10. It's on prime now as well for $3.99. But nat geo shows repeats a lot.


Also if you liked that check out Valley Uprising its available on Netflix and Amazon prime for .99

"Generations of beatniks and madmen take up a life of rock climbing on the massive granite walls of Yosemite National Park." And the park rangers don't like them.

Never heard of Valley Uprising,will check it out

The Dark Crystal - 8/10

Definitely weird, but well done. Feels like I'm watching a Final Fantasy movie. I really like the chancellor's mmmmm sound for some reason. I can definitely understand why the call the bad guys sexies:

Loved the movie and the mmmmm was great. There is a Dark Crystal series coming out this year on Netflix.

It deserved a "fuck yeah" thats for sure

Creed II 6/10

Love me some rocky movies, and enjoyed this latest installment. But at the end of the day it still tasted like magic marshmallow cereal instead of lucky charms...

 

[purbeast0]

Triple Frontier - 7/10 - it wasn't bad but it was quite different than I expected it to be, and in the end was just alright.

Krull 4/10 (for nostalgia, otherwise 3/10)

Its on Crackle right now so I thought I'd give it a watch after all of these years, just for fun.

I remember liking it as a boy, but I liked a lot of silly things back then. The people behind Krull obviously had a swords and sorcery version of Star Was in mind, right down to the casting of unknowns, but there's just too much incompetence present to make it work. Everything about the film, from the costumes to the sets to the effects, is extremely low rent and harkens from a pre-Star Wars era. They obviously saw a young Richard Chamberlain in the lead actor but he has none of the magic of the legend. Instead of allowing themselves to flow organically into the storyline of the film, as the young Star Wars actors did so well, everyone in Krull tries to make it their personal vehicle for stardom. The persistent overacting is cringeworthy, really.

Even the music by the usually great James Horner is overdone with the main title constantly repeating in different keys and orchestrations, even when it's not called for. He gats a pass - he must have been really young at the time.

The potential was there for so much more and that's why a lot of people probably have fonder memories of Krull than what I just described. Trust me: keep them memories.

hm.. cant binge watch?
only 1 episode out?
Netflix no longer releases everything at once?

 

[Thebobo]

Watched about 12 out of the 18 short stories from the series on netflix

LOVE DEATH + ROBOTS

There are 18 differents stores running between 7 and 15 minutes each. Some Cell animation some CGI and some a mix all of excellent quality. Most of sources episodes I enjoyed although the first one was good just not the best, and that's where you should put your best no?

One I liked a lot was 3 Robots. 3 robots go a tour of a human apocalyptic wasteland with a cat.

? the whole season is available for me. I was watching til 3am last night

I guess you were talking to me? Yes the whole season is available to me. Even though they are short I still have like 4 to go, to much stuff going on... but it's kinda nice to be able to watch and finish episodes when you have time. I assume if you were up late watching you enjoyed them? I would like to see them continue the series, I see a lot of potential from this series.

I had to watch 3 Robots a couple times.

Remember going to the theater to see krull as wanting to like it. but eh...

That's like Willow which had some good scenes but the main character to me was very annoying.

No to Jedi.

It's very uneven. I liked the three robots, ice age and alternate histories

Some are live action mixed with cgi

Instant Family - 8/10 - was a very good feel good movie about foster kids. I thought it was going to be more of a comedy than it was but it was still a great movie and a good watch. Pretty heart warming too.

Binged it. Some good. The yogurt one was funny.

I found it boring... I just didn't care for any of the characters.

4/10

Love
Death

Robots

7/10

Watched em all. Enjoyable but most left you either wanting more or thinking they shouldnt have bothered with this one. Some great monsters and battles and a little porn.

I dont usually watch much that is animated but the pseudo-realistic renderings arent hard to take. Will watch a second season if they make one.

THE TROLLS OF TRIDENT (2011)

this uwe boll film fetuaring robin williams as TridenT promised rousing action and endless laughs, but unfortunetly it delivered niether. i found that it was far too long but lacked any real content, additionaly it was insipid dull boring and uninspiring. as a result i didnt even finish watching the whole thing. and i was more disapointed than angry.

i give it...

ban/10

The main character had a tiny unit too and was shot down by so many females he switched sides. I think you're being a little harsh on the movie, I'm gonna go with 2.34/10.

Mortal Engines -- 7.5/10

Yeah it's a pretty ridiculous premise (huge moving cities on wheels that can "eat" and absorb smaller cities); it was originally based off a novel from what I understand. I actually enjoyed it pretty well and would recommend it, though you definitely need to turn your brain off to enjoy it, and just accept the fantasy. I know it got pretty negative reviews but if any sci-fi/fantasy interests you then I'd recommend it.

Yea the yogurt one was pretty entertaining. I think overall, it was a pretty good series. The animation/CGI was superb, and the content was ok. I'd say 7.5/10.

I got into 2 episodes of Into the Badlands. Verdict is still out on this one for me. I'll watch a few more episodes to see if it gets going. Fight scenes are choreographed pretty well, the acting is ok, we'll see how the story unfolds though.
