Netflix/Amazon/Gaming and Book Recommendations

@richard-latimer I like both but find it easier to get into the US stuff, probably more susceptible to the over the top advertising that makes them seem better!

@martin so good isn’t it? I love British Dramas

I'm the opposite with a few exceptions like Luther for example. Generally speaking U.S. stuff gets higher ratings on IMDb and that's my Bible before I commit any time to anything haha!

@richard-latimer yes great show that! The rest of the series keep up too

[Richard Latimer]

Just finished 2nd season of Unforgotten where crimes are uncovered and investigated years on. Brilliant premise and the actress who played Ruth in Sppoks is always top drawer.

An emotional rollercoaster.

[Ryan]

I am surprised nobody has mentioned Gal yet!

It's on the list to watch this week, but Succession to finish first which I am glad I stuck with.

[John Folan]

@matt-wood no. He’s 50 now so needs to sort himself out.

[Matt Wood]

@john-folan Haha yep. Dont get me wrong I think Ryan was perfect for Deadpool but both him and the Rock are just themselves in films.

Predicting now as well that unless Dwayne comes off the juice and drops some weight/size he is going to have some sort of serious health issue in the next 10 years. He did not look good or move at all well in that film.

[John Folan]

@matt-wood I love how The Rock and Ryan Reynolds play the same characters in all their films

[Matt Wood]

@john-folan yep we did the same. and by the ending you can bet there will be a second movie

[John Folan]

Just watched Red Notice on Netflix. Great waste of a couple of hours

[Matt Wood]

Have started watching Glitch on Netflix.

Really good so far! Fairly original stuff. Its low budget but the writing and acting Id put up there with any big budget production so far.

Slow burn type of series I think.

[Matt Wood]

If anyone likes their steam punk/fantasy stuff then you should give the Grimnoir Chronicles by Larry Correia a go. 1st book is called Hard Magic.

@richard-latimer more interested in Kirsten Dunst, what a great actress she has been in Fargo and On Becoming a God in Central Florida!

As an aside just how did Jesse Plemons land that haha???

[Mark Maguire]

@richard-latimer @Martin Kirsten Dunst? Who did he play for ?

That's a fair point. Always loved Kirsten Dunst.

So by a show of hands will Andrew Garfield and Tobey Maguire make an appearance in No Way Home and who amongst you actually cares haha??

I admit to being a bit of a comic book nerd in terms of the films. Never been into actual comics but will be pretty epic to see them all along with Green Goblin and Doc Oc

[Richard Latimer]

Any fans of the original CSI with Billy Petersen? CSI Vegas started recently bringing back both Gil Grissom and Sarah Sidle. Used to love this show so while it's still got a new cast of characters it''s good see a couple of the oldies back.

[John Folan]

@matt-wood there is that too
