Gotta get up

I have started watching Comedy Drama series Russian Doll. Showing on Netflix. I assumed the episode to be longer. Set in New York. Starring: Natasha Lyonne; Greta Lee; Yul Vazquez; Elizabeth Ashley; Charlie Barnett; Chloƫ Sevigny.
Natasha is also creator and producer. Last thing that I saw her in was the American Pie films. She is a talented actress. Nadia is a video games developer attending a birthday party. She would diea at some point in the night and relive the same day. Looking at the people I can assume them to be liberals, artists. The costume and props department will have had fun with this. You are on the edge of your seat as you don't know how she get struck down. When making these time loop stories the actors would have done alot, sometimes repeating lines. Her cat Oatmeal is missing. There are a bunch of eclectic characters. I like the soundtrack. Some of the dialogue is weird. I personally believe that she is in purgatory. A clever show. Plenty of visual clues. Season 1 is straightforward. Season 2 takes a weird turn. I will have to look at theories and explanations about the show. Great cast of actors. Worth checking out. You might have already seen Final Destination, Happy Death Day, Edge Of Tomorrow, Boss Level, Inside Llewyn Davis, Groundhog Day, Lost.





I went to see Doctor Strange In The Multiverse Of Madness. J18 was the seat, screen 8. Starring Benedict Cumberbatch, Elizabeth Olsen, Benedict Wong, Xochitl Gomez, Rachel McAdams, Chiwetel Ejiofor, Michael Stuhlbarg. There are many more actors but you will have to see the film. The film had only been out a few days and people were posting spoilers on YouTube. Taking place after No Way Home. Also events from Doctor Strange and Wandavision are referenced. The multiverse is real. I can assume that you have been watching all the Marvel films and shows. Stephen has been attending the wedding of Christine. Meanwhile these creatures have been after America Chavez. She is quite cute. She has powers. Has the ability to move between universes. Wanda has been using the Darkhold. She wants to be reunited with her children. She is badass. America's powers will help Wanda. Stephen wants to protect the kid. They are sent to various locations. As this film is directed by Sam Raimi there is more horror. Expect some cameos. Which leads to the end credits scene just being there for humour. So you don't need to stay in the cinema for that. There is a post credits scene. So I guess there is a third film. I am wondering when Loki, Hawkeye, Captain America films will appear. I am going to see Thor: Love And Thunder. There is still a Guardians Of The Galaxy sequel to be made. I was reminded of What If. Elizabeth is hot in that Scarlet Witch outfit. Benedict and Elizabeth have been killing it. The mole on Rachel's face is bothersome. Good effects. No doubt the antisjw bellends will be triggered by something. I should not mention them as they are irrelevant. Interesting soundtrack. I will look at trivia and discussions. There are the usual reaction channels that will see this. 

Stranger Things season 4. The long awaited scifi horror is back. The cast are very much older. They have had various films and TV roles. There is a short recap. This episode established where they all are. There is a flashback sequence. 1986 and the characters have come back to Hawkins. Those that had left last season that is. The basketball competition is almost at an end. Mike and gang would be playing D&D. Lucas has to play basketball as it is the finals. They need to convince the leader of the Hellfire Club to reschedule. The actor reminded me of a young Robert Downey Jr. He could play another version of Tony Stark. Dustin is still in touch with his girlfriend who can hack a computer. Max is going through some trauma. Hopper has sent a package to Joyce. Eleven and Will are at college together. She has to face these bullies. The older cast that were teens are dealing with issues. Jonathan over in California. Nancy is a reporter. Robin is in a brass band. Steve works at a video store. There is Chrissy that has gifts and is connected to the Upside Down. The main villain is probably the king of that realm. I understand this to be the final season. Showing on Netflix now. 

Millie Bobby Brown, Eduardo Franco, Priah Ferguson, Sadie Sink, Maya Hawke, Joe Keery, Noah Schnapp, Charlie Heaton, Natalia Dyer, David Harbour, Finn Wolfhard, Caleb McLaughlin, Gaten Matarazzo, Joseph Quinn, Winona Ryder.

I am watching Stranger Things on Netflix using the NowTv box. The TV is Toshiba. The screen was quiet dark at the beginning. I was having to adjust the settings. I have seen things the cast have been in. Also the Badlipreading videos. Set in the 1980s. The era of my childhood. You might like


  A great cast of actors. There is drama and humour. Something I can assume is an alien has escaped from a secret facility. A young girl named Eleven has turned up. Some agents are on the hunt for her. A young boy has gone missing. You will like the soundtrack. Sci fi element to it interested me. The local sheriff is trying to do what he can. There are a group of teens that are the main cast. Cert 18. The little blonde toddler sat at the table is cute as is Eleven. Nancy is attractive. The chef at the cafe was great. I had recently been watching IT. I am not too concerned about what goes on at school. A new season is yet to premiere. I am blogging whilst watching. It had been a long time since I watched Winona Ryder in anything. Cynthia is pretty. All the while I can here a family member chattering away. Often the volume on show is loud. Still dark on some scenes. Matthew Modine was superb. I would have been 4 years old in 1983.





















Cast (379)



















Season 2 takes place in 1984. Things have moved on. A new look for some characters. Max is a new student over from California. In the city you have a bunch of criminals and one of them is gifted. Sean Astin was in The Goonies. He is in this season. Will has been having visions of the Upsidedown place. With this show the Duffer Brothers have been getting 80s stars for this film. See trivia on IMDb. Paul Reiser plays a doctor. Lots of pop culture references. 


Season 3 has a great ensemble cast. Nice special effects. You might be interested in the soundtrack. Interested to see what Russian viewers make of this show. More references. I will leave you to spot them. There is a Russian army and scientists working in a secret location. Jim is still doing police work. Joyce is at the store. The boys are hanging out with the girls getting up to mischief. Steve works at an ice cream parlour with the lovely Robin. Jonathan and Nancy are interns at the newspaper company. Billy works as a lifeguard. Really good scenes with monsters. I like how they are in groups going on their own mission. The character Alexei is cool as is the conspiracy theorist Murray. Dustin can be annoying as is Erica. The actors are great it's just the characters. The beast has somehow come back and will use Billy to do it's work. There was a lot of anti Russian sentiment. There probably still is. I think that you should see the show. I could update this post when Season 4 comes. There is a red carpet interview with Maya Hawke that you might like. Joe Keery does look like Andrew Garfield. Dacre Montgomery has nice eyes.
