This was very disturbing. And good documentary at the same time. Why you all think?

I'm five episodes into it and I'm really liking it. I am curious to see how he ends this, since a lots of fucked up stuff must be yet to come.

"Much like the movie, the series follows three vampires who live together: Laszlo (Matt Berry), Nadja (Natasia Demetriou), and Nandor (Kayvan Novak) — the former two are husband and w…

Rant time. I don't get why they spent an entire season on the Kate Kane (is she alive or not) story line only for them to write her out of the show just after she has been resurrected? What was the point? Especially since I think Wallis Day made a great Kate Kane (and she looked a lot more like Rachel Skarten than Ruby Rose ever did if they were meant to be twins). I have the feeling this was them buckling a bit under the pressure. I suspect their original plan was for Kate to retake the Batwoman mantle from Ryan Wilder, but then the show's writers got criticized for the mere potential of them writing Javicia Leslie out of the show. If th…

Thought I should start a thread for this as this is anticipated to be significantly different from 2017 Theatrical version (aka, "Josstic League"). "Zack Snyder's Justice League, commonly referred to as the "Snyder Cut", is the upcoming director's cut of the 2017 American superhero film Justice League. It presents Justice League—the fifth film of the DC Extended Universe (DCEU) and based on the DC Comics superhero team of the same name—as director Zack Snyder had intended it before he left the production.

Cowboy Bebop (aka カウボーイビバップ or in Rōmaji "Kaubōi Bibappu") What would be the 90s without Cowboy Bebop? What would be the anime world without Cowboy Bebop?

If you like subtle humor and unusual characters, try this one. It's 1/2 hour and the first 2 seasons are on Netflix or Amazon. Eugene Levy and his son Dan came up with the show and both are in it. At first I thought this was going to be one of those shows that is one and done. It walks a thin line between ludicrous and hilarious. David Rose (Dan Levy) and Stevie Budd (Emily Hampshire) are great. Oh yeah, there's Alexis (Annie Murphy) also.

So, Disney finally announced the details of its own streaming service last month and four new MCU shows have since been confirmed, with some of the more popular fringe characters who don't, and probably won't, have their own standalone movies to return in greatly expanded roles.

Falcon and The Winter Soldier Sebastian Stan and Anthony Mackie to return and team up, with Daniel Bruhl t…

Due to the difficulty of obtaining high quality (140MB per 20 min episodes) South Park episodes, I have decided to start a thread on South Park episodes sharing. It is very easy to obtain low-quality South Park episodes (30MB). Note: Please do not start other TV episode or other media such as music sharing thread, unless the maker of the episodes don't mind it. Trey Parker and Matt Stone allow fans to download South Park episodes from the web. Here's a great download site: http://www.sphtml.com/

Is anyone watching this? I have to say that my expectations going in were limited because I'm not Damon Lindelof's biggest fan. Surprisingly this has been a very good TV show, continuing to build upon the universe originally created by Alan Moore and somehow expanding and even improving upon it. The sixth episode was especially great, perhaps the best hour of TV I have seen all year long.

Netflix takes on the infamous Medellín drug cartel in "Narcos," which follows the rise and fall of Colombian kingpin Pablo Escobar and the Drug Enforcement Agency agents hunting him. The story is told largely from the points of view of Escobar, played by Brazilian actor Wagner Moura, and U.S. DEA Agent Steve Murphy (Boyd Holbrook), on opposite sides of what would become an all-out war. The gritty drama begins with the early days of the drug battle, when the biggest offenders were "hippies in flip-flops" caught with up to a kilo of marijuana, continuing to the violent, bloody battles between members of the cartel peddling tons of kilos of cocaine and drug agents from Colom…
