Netflix/Amazon/Gaming and Book Recommendations

[Matt Wood]

If anyone like their fantasy novels I can recommend The Dragons of Dorcastle. Book 1 of the Pillars of Eternity. Fantasy with a steam punk element. I have picked up the 2nd book as I enjoyed it enough to commit to the series.

Just back from Spider-Man. Pretty epic!

Glad you have enjoyed it. Plenty of surprises hey?

Well I didn't want the main surprise so I needed to find out as soon as I could. That said, I avoided reading anything about how and what happened as much as possible haha!

@john-folan now both sound ok to me, I haven’t actually done the books! They are downloaded on my kindle, but I thought I’d do the show then read them as it’s usually very very different.

Boba will be mega then!

Yes do it that way. It will take you a while to get through the books anyway..

First episode of Boba kicks off lovely. Haven’t seen the second yet.

@john-folan the same lot who moan about every fantasy series based on books. Let’s face it if everything is the exact same what’s the point? Just read the book! I thought first episode was up and down but second better. That’s all I’ve watched so far. Just finished second series of the Witcher which I loved, first series was good overall but had some up and down episodes, thought this series was solid throughout.

Can’t argue with that. Oh so you haven’t had episode 4 yet? You are in for a treat .

Love the Witcher. You are right. Has been up and down.

People love a moan don’t they?

@ryan a lot of people moaning about the wheel of time as they have changed it quite a bit from the books. However despite the facts it gets on my nerves sometimes as I loved the books it has moments of sheer genius in it.

Boba is shaping up as well as the Mandalorian

[Ryan]

Boba good?

Wheel of time too?

Both on my list.

Anyone watched Dopesick? Michael Keaton brings his A game

[Akiva Anderson]

‘Come From Away’ the musical is on AppleTV. Better still, catch it live at the Phoenix Theatre in London.

My wife and I are booking flights to see it again in April.

Just smashed through seasons 3 and 4 of Cobra Kai in the last two days. Its really great how many of the original cast members they have managed to get into the series Makes me feel old though!

[Richard Latimer]

Finally got round to watching 'Don't Look Up' before I caught anymore spoilers. Very funny, very clever, very f*****g depressing haha!

[Ryan]

@john-folan Nope! Finishing Hawkeye then will do that, I want to do the Will Smith one on Disney too looks good!

[Richard Latimer]

Netflix dragging me down another serial killer rabbit hole with its latest doc. The Times Square Torso Killer. A lovely little guy I'd not heard of until it came up on my home screen haha!

[Richard Latimer]

Tiger King 1 & 2. What a wild ride. And I thought zoo ownership was all about conservation of endangered species, not getting laid by loads of hot chicks and trying to get your rivals banged up haha!

Makes me wonder what's going on at the 'Cotswold Wildlife Park' haha!
