| Evenbob Member since: Oct 24, 2012 Threads: 148 Posts: 25910 | The first season of Witcher on Netflix was okay the second season was terrific so of course they totally screwed up the third season to make it completely unwatchable. And to top that off the actor who plays the lead character is leaving after the season. I watched the first two episodes and could not figure out what was going on and I thought something was wrong with me until I read the reviews and nobody knows what's going on. Who are all these characters where did they come from what are they talking about. I hate when they take a good series and totally screw it up. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

| terapined Member since: Aug 6, 2014 Threads: 76 Posts: 12501 | Fascinating documentary on the battle of the Atlantic during WWII I've read a lot about this battle and was fascinated to learn about the war games conducted to develop strategy such as raspberry. Very well done. These women were so key to developing strategy. Fascinating long story comprising of 3 videos One of the best docudramas on youtube Women were the brains that defeated the Wolfpacks https://youtu.be/KxTb-bVG1RY?si=7DWC9bGd6wKwsICQ https://youtu.be/1gNa7L4qYik?si=pP_oB6xRwJ5yKWw8 https://youtu.be/7sotpcQhQ_o?si=dUmp0_MVaUmNkzsW Sometimes we live no particular way but our own - Grateful Dead "Eyes of the World" |

I watched that a week or so ago and agree it was well done. I must say that I enjoyed when the Admiral or Commander kept losing to the woman, he just couldn't believe that she figured out a way to defeat him in the war game. At my age a Life In Prison sentence is not much of a deterrent. |

There's a documentary about Leonardo DiCaprio? Will it show all his 20 year old girlfriends? If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

One thing frustrated me on this Leonardo doc last nite Subtitles WTF Yea I know he's Italian Why interview Italian experts in italian??? The guy is studied in detail all over the planet It's 500 years ago. I doubt the Italian experts know more then other experts that speak english Sometimes we live no particular way but our own - Grateful Dead "Eyes of the World" |

I am currently travelling so I probably won't get a chance to watch it until next week. At my age a Life In Prison sentence is not much of a deterrent. |
