If anyone fancies a fantasy trilogy that is more, low fantasy and gritty / 'real' I have just finished the final book from Richard Morgan (author of Altered Carbon) and loved it. Quite dark and gritty but a great story.

The Steel Remains, The Cold Commands, The Dark Defiles are the three books in the trilogy.

Nice one. Just reading the Altered Carbon trilogy

I watched the first season and it was good but then they changed the major cast and I couldn't be bothered.

Still on my 'to watch' list but I aim to give it a go soon.

First season is decent.

Love this sort of thing, masterful control to create the illusion.

Severance on Apple TV is shaping up well. Deffo Black Mirror vibes.

Ryan

@dan-mackinnon I will have to watch it!

Dan MacKinnon

@ryan my mate had a spare ticket and asked if I wanted to go watch it. I hadn't seen anything so thought it was going to be a Foo Fighters documentary. I'm glad I didn't watch the trailer as it spoils the film and gives too much away.

The film is a bit longer than it needs to be and definitely a Foo Fighters fan film first, cheesy horror movie second.

Ryan

@dan-mackinnon See it advertised but it sounded horrendous so haven't watched it yet, but sounds like I might like it.

Dan MacKinnon

I saw Studio 666 on Saturday. It's a Foo Fighters B-movie horror film and was better than I expected. It's silly with lots of Foo Fighters jokes thrown in.

Dave Grohl also plays the thrash metal music that's included in the film.

@terry-cooke What did you think to it?
