Good grief. There's no way I'd do that eating stunt. Can't stand hot foods.

Me neither. I‘m getting heartburn just from watching this lol

 

[Chris30]

Well I'm going to watch Iron Man 2 in a few minutes.

Wow. Me and my family are watching Episodes 7 and 8 of Paradise. Intense.

I don't like spicy foods myself and I don't watch every episode but when there's someone I like on it I'll check it out and I definitely like Bill Murray. I had not heard the story about the groundhog biting him twice during the filming of "Groundhog Day".

 

[Chris30]

Well, I'm fixing to watch...

The old Addams Family show (available in Amazon Prime, through their MGM catalog). A show I grew up with (together with the Munsters) whose influence can be felt in modern shows like What We Do in the Shadows or films like Beetlejuice.

I love everything Addams: The comic strips, the TV show, the films, the cartoon show, and Wednesday (Netflix). I've even attended the musical play!

Addams's "Movie Scream" is one of my absolute favourite one panel cartoons of all time.

Reacher, in the current season there is this huge bodyguard

In remembrance of Gene Hackman, I watched the Runaway Jury and Hoosiers. If you needed an actor to play a resolute character, whether with good or ill intentions, Gene Hackman was the man. RIP him, his wife, and his dog.

Getting ready to watch some scenes on Youtube from this old film, what would you rate this movie?

Personally me: 4/5...

 

[TB]

what would you rate this movie?

9.5/10

 

[UKMikey]

9.5/10

Thanks for this useful advice. I recently decided to rate music in a similar way between "did not finish"/"listened once but don't want to listen to again"/"will listen to again"/"will listen to again and again"/"everlasting chewing gum". I'd never force my personal ratings on someone else though.

I binged the final season of The Good Doctor. While it was shortened because the show was cancelled, they managed to stick the landing for at least the major characters, too bad some storylines were noticeably cut short. Still, IMO it is a positive show that did not overextend its stay and had a coherent ending. 8/10.

I also watched It's in the Game: Madden NFl, a 4-part documentary on the Madden football videogame franchise (Amazon Prime). While I somewhat expected a fluff piece (and it has some, specially leading into the launch of the latest game) and jukes other problematic aspects, it is also surprisingly frank with some of the negatives throughout its history, like the NFL exclusivity (grrr...), its rivalry with other football franchises (Gameday and NFL 2K-ESPN Football, grrr...), the bad games and launches, and the toxicity and backlash then and now. It also covers the contributions of its namesake in a respectful manner. I personally won't play another Madden game again, but it is an informative and well-done production aimed not only for fans of the game and NFL football but for video gamers in general, so... 7/10.
