TV Series

Caight up with shogun, excellent
Watched parasyte: the grey yesterday, Yeon Sang-ho has pulled off another top class horror mini series

on to fallout next
 
Just finished watching Sexy Beast last night found it enjoyable, it's about gangsters (fictional) in the 90s in London good storyline and acting. Only 8 episodes too.
 
If you all remember The Night Manager from 2016 season 2 and 3 is coming apparently!



"An Englishman, Jonathan Pine, is working as the night manager of a Cairo hotel. He gets involved with a local woman who is the girlfriend of a local gangster. Through her relationship with the gangster she has acquired information linking illegal international arms sales with Richard Roper, an English billionaire. She is soon found dead, murdered due to her having this information. Fearing for his own life, Pine flees, ending up working at a remote hotel in Switzerland. Four years pass, and then Roper visits the Swiss hotel. This rekindles Pines thirst for revenge, and he is enlisted by British Intelligence to spy on Roper. What follows is a very dangerous game of intrigue and deception."

Remember that and if my memory is right it was pretty good.
 
I thought it was fine wished it was longer as they had to shoehorn in a lot of timelines and storylines, gave the show closure without destroying it like GoT.
Spot on sir, they did well to put in a whole seasons worth of story into a single film. GoT still depresses me when i think what a maess they made of the tail end of the show.
 
Never seen the animated version in any form, but loved the series
If you ever watch the original anime version you would have turned off the live action by episode 3

doesn't do it justice what so ever I stopped as it had ignored the tone and noir aspect, messed up fayes character and completely changed Grin, Unlike the makers of One Piece who honoured the source, Bebops live action tried to improve on the original, where it's flaws was part of its original brilliance.

Started watching Dark- German tv series on Netflix. Interesting 1st episode. Not sure if it’s going to like fringe or something like stranger things. Reviews were pretty good.

Possibly the worst show I have every seen.
 
Iv watched 3 episodes and it’s ok bit slow but interesting and enough to keep going.

What did you not like?

Never goes anywhere, never gets there, and nothing comes together. Pure forced wtf for the sake of being wtf.
 
Fair to say they've nailed the look of fallout. I could never get into the games so much but interested to see how it goes on.

Yeah, I have played the games and the attention to detail everywhere you look was top notch from the colours to the logos and even the fonts used. Only watched the first episode as they're around an hour long each but really looking forward to the rest.

Managed as far as into season 3 but eventually gave up.
First season was good but after that it became much more complicated.
Wont say too much as I could spoil it.
Definitely not one to watch after a drink .
