Evenbob Member since: Oct 24, 2012 Threads: 146 Posts: 25011 | Time Traveler's Wife on HBO. What a disappointing pile of crap. This guy travels through time and always arrives buck naked so we get to see his bare ass five or six times in every episode. There's no substance here, it's all about him chasing his future wife. He goes back to see her when she's a child of 9 10 12 years old 154 times and he's an adult in his forties. He's grooming her to be his future wife and it's disgusting. Grooming is a big No-No now, especially where gay men hang out with young boys to groom them for later sex. This series makes no sense, sometimes he time travels to exactly the same spot from the future six or eight times at once so there is six or eight of him walking around looking at themselves. At one point he's 16 years old in bed with his 16-year-old self giving himself a blowjob. And this woman he's chasing is a big nothing burger. She's barely attractive, bitchy, boring, preachy, basically about everything men run away from in a woman. Of course this was written by a woman so it all makes sense. No man would ever write garbage like this. Women love to have the fantasy that no matter what they look like or how they act there's some Prince Charming out there who will put up with all her crap and chase them to the ends of the Earth. Real life is nothing like that. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

ams288 Member since: Apr 21, 2016 Threads: 29 Posts: 12535 | Recently: Hacks: S2 on HBO Max - love this show Obi-Wan Kenobi on Disney+ - four episodes in and I’m pretty sure this is just plain bad. Poorly made, cheap looking. Just depressing Stranger Things 4 on Netflix- dare I say this may be my favorite season yet? I love the 80’s slasher references, particularly the Nightmare on Elm Street vibe. They even put Robert Englund in there. “A straight man will not go for kids.” - AZDuffman |

You mean real life 75 year old Robert Englund or some old video footage or CGI Robert Englund at age 37. |

petroglyph Member since: Aug 3, 2014 Threads: 25 Posts: 6227 | We are binging "All American" on Netflix. I'm surprised we hadn't watched it before. It's based on a true story, about a hi school football kid that has exceptional skills on the field. The last official act of any government is to loot the treasury. GW |

Pacomartin Member since: Oct 24, 2012 Threads: 1068 Posts: 12569 | These are the titles of the shorts (5 minutes to 25 minutes) in Netflix Oats Studios – Volume 1 – Rakka, Firebase, Cooking With Bill, God, Zygote, Bad President, Adam (Episode 2 and 3), Gdansk and Kapture: Locust. Extremely Violent! The most uncomfortable episode to sit through was Cooking With Bill, and the one that’s going to haunt me for quite some time is ‘God: Serengeti/Chicago’. |

Do you have to watch the movie first or is it completely unrelated? |
