    It was just like that. I haven't changed the spoiler tags.

    I just added the extra warning in red text.

    What's the issue then? Someone saw spoilers when they looked under spoiler tags?

    ^^ I don't understand what's happening here. That entire post is behind spoiler tags.... was it not like that originally?

    Looks like a bug on the touch site where the quote tag within the spoiler is causing the spoiler section to end and display the spoiler on screen. I submitted a bug report on Site Development http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?p=100431011

    I see it now. Yep, it's on the phone that happens. I've gone in and edited a bunch more spoiler tags now. All fixed on my phone.

    Sorry pc7.

    Started the show last night and watched an episode, watched the other 7 today after work. Couldn't stop once I started. Think it's my favourite Netflix show yet which considering I've loved a load of them is a nice accomplishment

    Well...yesterday was a great day.

    "Ah, sure I'll just lash on the one and see what all the fuss is about"





    "3.30am - FIN"

    Absolutely loved it. Didn't strike me as something that I'd watch if it weren't for the buzz generated by it, but **** me, I was surprisingly impressed! Music was a big bonus. Really got the hook in deep.

    Can't wait for more.

    I think we can all agree whoever reviewed it for Empire magazine really hasn't a clue what they are talking about.

    Jesus yeah.. I forgot about that!

    Stand by what I said... the best original show Netflix have done and undoubtedly will be hard to top this year both on network TV and cable.

    Now where's the season 2 renewal Netflix?!?

    They've revamped their mag to include a bigger review section for online/streaming media. I wonder will they just copy and paste their own online review into the next issue or will they have had someone else watch it all and do a different review?

    They seem to be busy this weekend with Comic-Con, loads of Marvel stuff being announced.

    I keep forgetting it's only been a week since this was released. It feels like much longer.

    I dunno, there's an interview there with the producers from July 12th and they said they were very very confident of a second season but said it hadn't been confirmed yet.

    The kids stole the show alright. The older son was brutal. Not sure about his weird Korean pop star wig either.

    Watched all 8 episodes over two nights! Absolutely fantastic show. Loved it. Made me feel like a kid again.

    I was always a big fan of Super 8 so between the similarities and the 80's movie references just completed the series for me.

    Can't wait for the next one.

    Winona Ryder was brilliant.

    This site lists a majority of the soundtrack on a per-episode basis:

    Even catches obscure stuff that was used but never had a commercial release, like the song playing in Nancy's bedroom in Episode 6.

    HA!

    Me and my brother were constantly taking the piss out of the poor chap.

    "Can you understand him?"

    "Course not, but the other characters seem to understand Japanese so it's balancing out."

    Finished it. Terrific series overall. Easily the best thing Netflix has done, by miles. Such a great group effort, the kids, the chief, even Nancy showed some balls in the end. The atmosphere that was at times perilous and akin to a horror film, with just enough emotion too. Some nice little flourishes of humour that were well judged. And yet, come the end, we still don't know a lot about what 'it' is. But yeah, dammit, I hope some kids get to see this. If it doesn't make you smile, well, frankly good TV is lost on you. It was a pleasure to spend time with these characters.

    I saw some pictures of the girl who plays her and she looks vert tall and much older in them. I don't know if she took a growth spurt since filming on S1 finished or if they were all taken by a very short person but it could be interesting to see how they explain why she suddenly looks way older than the boys. Unless of course they've also taken growth spurts in the past few months.

    The pictures of them that variety has from the Red Carpet Premiere and Party all look so much glossier than the show :eek:

    I'm half way through and blown away. Completely the opposit of stuff I normally watch but so many recommended it solely on the 80s nostalgia that we gave it a go

    It is so so so much more than nostalgia. It's all I can do not to watch episode five without Mrs Dodge

    I was thinking about ditching Netflix but this show is so good I'm probably going to keep it for another while

    The theme music and font used in the opening credits had me hooked
