Think they list shows where the rights will be expiring and getting renewed. So like it would be leaving on that day but they extended it. Have seen it a few times now.

Since the Wu Assassins film was announced, I started the series last night. Halfway through and liking it so far. Though hearing the 5 elements just reminded me of Warriors of Virtue

GUILLERMO DEL TORO’S PINOCCHIO | Official Teaser

Had to look up to see if it was being made by Laika.

Enjoyed Emma with Anya Taylor-Joy. Glitzy production seemed right for a story about a privileged girl who tries to organise her friend’s love life. Sacrificed some of the novel’s complexity (as always?) but plenty of human interest.

Why is Harriet always cast as someone much less beautiful than Emma? It was the same with Gwyneth Paltrow/ Toni Collette. The whole point of the novel is that Emma believes Harriet’s beauty and innocence will lead to a wealthy marriage if Harriet takes her advice and dumps the farmer Harriet truly loves. In the movies, Emma seems just cruel to Harriet who is completely overshadowed by Emma’s glamour.

The Sinner (2021) Season 4 - In a small New York town, a haunted detective hunts for answers about perplexing crimes while wrestling with his own demons.

Didn't they change that recently? Think they measure hours watched now.

Though how accurate are they the anyway. Like if that list is based on hours watched, The Irishman has an advantage due to the length of the film. Assuming the films below it are at least 2 thirds of its length then adjusting The Irishman number to 2 thirds would put it below Enola.

I was bored and thought I would give Stay Close a go (I love Cush Jumbo)....hope for some entertaining cobblers...I am two episodes in...it is absolutely bonkers...and getting more bonkers by the minute...

Watched Munich: The Edge of War last night and enjoyed it immensely. The story is nicely weaved into the real history.

Mrs Sleepy wanted to watch Emma so we watched that too. Not really my thing but the cast (Bill Nighy in particular) looked as if they were having a ball.

The Bridge is great all right, but I think season 1 of The Killing is the best scandi tv series of them all. I’d put it in my top 5 of all time, up there with Sopranos, GOT, the wire and BB. Not sure what the order is probably gave to go GOT first anyway.

this is out today - Corkman has major role in it :-)
