Smeg
I watched Red Dwarf: The Promised Land. A two part special on Uktv. I looked up reactions on YouTube and saw a video from MechaKaren labelling it as woke. Well she is a dumbass and has clearly never seen the show. You can tell who is rightwing. But anyway don't let that spoil it for you. I did think that they would have left it as it was with the last series. As now the cast are much older. You have young cast members that might not have been born during the original run. Packed full of gags. Good special effects. This show never took itself seriously. A cult scifi programme. Very British. Good having a live studio audience. Some interesting dialogue. There are ad breaks which I didn't like. As it happens there is a ship of the Cat people. All the little things that cats do gets referenced here. Rodon is the leader and main villain. He wants to be worshipped. There is a stone of Anubis that he wants. He orders these clerics to be executed. They escape and hope to run into their God. Meanwhile on board Red Dwarf things go as they always do. There is worry over how Lister has been behaving. Mention of him being the last human. There is the Ouroboros episode that I thought of. As a back up disc of the A.I. Holly was found, they booted him up. It leads to complications. The crew are on board Starbug drifting further into space. Calamity ensues. The chanting was cringe worthy. The opening credits shows various scenes could be spoilers. You will recognise some actors. I don't know if there will be anything after this. Good soundtrack. Chris Barry, Craig Charles, Danny John Jules, Robert Lewellyn, Norman Lovett. An action adventure that I recommend.

Les Revenants
In an idyllic French Alpine village, a seemingly random collection of people find themselves in a state of confusion as they attempt to return to their homes. What they do not yet know is that they have been dead for several years, and no one is expecting them back. Buried secrets emerge as they grapple with this miraculous and sinister new reality, struggling to reintegrate with their families and past lovers. But it seems they are not the only ones back from the dead. Their arrival coincides with a series of gruesome murders that bear a chilling resemblance to the work of a serial killer from the past... Stars Anne Consigny, Frederic Pierrot, Clotilde Hesme.
I have started watching season 2 of Les Revenants aka The Returned. I watched season 1 many years ago on Channel 4. I may have started season 2 back then but did not finished. Had to see how it pans out. Essentially it is a French horror drama. Set in a small village. The deceased residents have returned. They don't realise that they are dead. Want to carry on with life as normal. Some found it hard to adapt. There are a variety of characters. There was some sex and nudity. It was a good show. A few main protagonists. A young boy that is quiet and creepy. There was a serial killer on the loose. A major confrontation between the residents. You might also like La Horde, District 9, Big Bug, L'Haine, Taxi.

The last starfighter
If you are interested in Ebooks
The Adam Project is a scifi drama starring Ryan Reynolds, Jennifer Garner, Catherine Keener, Mark Ruffalo, Walker Scobell, Zoe Saldana, Alex Mallari Jr. A Netflix film directed by Shawn Levy. In 2050 time travel is possible. A mature man named Adam is on his time ship and is being chased by Sorian with her team of soldiers. He flies through a wormhole landing in 2022 where he meets his 12 year old self. His mother is a single parent. The father had passed away. Adam's wife had gone missing. He was intending to go save her. The child actor is good. He and Ryan have good chemistry. Both able to play different versions of the same character. Good special effects. The cgi/deepfake for young Sorian is obvious. The stunt scenes aren't bad. Interesting what happens to person when killed. Nice sentimental moments. As you would get from a time travel film. People were saying how this is like those classic live action Disney films. This does contain swearing and violence. Reynolds was a producer. Worth checking out. Nice soundtrack. Will look at the trivia and discussion. A few actors that have been involved with the Marvel franchise. I wasn't entirely convinced of the relationship between Adam and his wife. That's because of the actors. If you look at the Cduniverse website you will find many similar films. You might like Flight Of The Navigator, The Last Starfighter, The Kid, Looper, The Tomorrow War, The Time Traveller's Wife, About Time, I'll Follow You Down, The Jacket, Frequency,The Butterfly Effect, The Time Machine, Primer, Back To The Future, Doctor Who, Predestination, Project Almanac, Shifter, Edge Of Tomorrow, Groundhog Day, Happy Death Day, Triangle, Boss Level, In The Shadow Of The Moon.

I started watching Werewolves Within. A horror comedy which I saw a teaser clip of. I found the dialogue and acting cringe worthy so stopped at 1h21m59 seconds left. Set in some northern town. A new Ranger has been assigned his post. A monster lurks somewhere. But anyway this film is released by Signature. The filming location was interesting.
I started watching The Privilege. A German horror film. 1 m 28 m to go. As I will be up in the morning for gym. Some creature was pursuing the children in the house. The older sister is hysterical. I remember seeing the specific bridge in some show or movie. Fast forward to the college years. The son is getting therapy. His twin sister is hot. He is invited to a party. Later sees his Grandpa. Interesting location. I listened to the original audio with subtitles. There are weird beings lurking. The family is hiding a secret. Some pretty cast members notably Sophie and Samira. There is a moderate sex scene. Pills are being given to the teens. Maybe look at trivia. Techno soundtrack. Good cast of actors. Currently on Netflix. You get to see Finn the protagonist live his daily life. See him investigate into what has been going on. They are a middle class family living in luxury. Cast.

French Dispatch
I started watching The French Dispatch Of The Liberty, Kansas Evening Sun. As it has been a long day I stopped midway. A Wes Anderson film. Slow paced. Comedy drama. Quite surreal. A star studded cast. I stopped watching again. The cinematography is good. I do try to work out what is going on. The narrator spoke about this newspaper company. Acts like an anthology. Each story is by a different journalist. The aspect ratio is different. Some pretty women. Nice tits on show. It is mainly in black and white. Some colour scenes. Set in 1920s to 70s. There is a prisoner that is an artist. The one woman working here is his muse. The art dealer has shown great interest in him. There are humorous moments. Each scene or camera shot looks like a fine art painting. Some shots where the people are frozen in position. Lingering looks towards the camera. To the people that don't know his work it will be confusing and boring. It is on Disneyplus. I may look at reviews and discussions if I can be bothered. Some cast members have returned to work with Wes. Another chapter has a journalist following a youth activist movement. Then you have a TV interview with a food critic. Events take place in a fictional French city. The soundtrack is nice. Clever dialogue. Wes is definitely an artist. I had seen Adrien Brody at a shift that I worked at in 2011.

Peace by any means necessary
Peacemaker is a TV show from DC and WB. Created by James Gunn. Events take place after The Suicide Squad. An action comedy series. Starring
John Cena
Danielle Brooks
Freddie Stroma
Chukwudi Iwuji
Jennifer Holland
Steve Agee
Robert Patrick
A few of characters have returned. The opening credits is something else. Chris aka Peacemaker has come out of hospital. He should be heading back to prison. He is given an opportunity to work for a special team. He will have a few different cases to deal with. I know that James Gunn has a mixed soundtrack like he did with Guardians Of The Galaxy. I am not keen on some of the songs. I hadn't watched the show as I wasn't keen on the character. Some people watching will be triggered. You have new girl Leota, a black woman who is in a lesbian relationship. I don't like the way other team members treat her. She can be annoying. Harcourt is hot. Though a bit of a bitch. She can definitely handle herself. Chris's dad is a Republican. With the dialogue and fights they do push the envelope. Nice body on John and the woman that he has sex with. Good tits. As also on Harcourt and Amber. Does contain violence, swearing, sex and nudity. You do feel a little sorry for Chris. He isn't so much like his dad. Amanda Waller is still running things. I recommend seeing the film first. I was impressed by this closet scene. Good special effects. There is this pet Eagle. See the reaction channels. There are references and cameos ahead. A second season has been given the green light. It airs on HBO Max however it is restricted to America just like with the CW. I saw it on this site. Here is a VPN to use.
I went to the cinema to watch The Batman. A film that triggered that small dicked gimp Kinel. Grabbed his pubes and screaming "reeeeee" all because of a fucking line? Also as it has black actors. A film by Matt Reeves. It is a dark film, clever too. They focus on the detective work alot as the other films had done but more here. Interesting shooting locations. Good action sets. You hear the theme music for certain characters. All the actors killed it in their roles. Special mention to Robert Pattinson, Zoe Kravitz, Colin Farrell, Jeffrey Wright, Paul Dano. I like the history of the Wayne family. Andy Serkis, John Turturro are in supporting roles. Bruce Wayne has fighting crime as The Batman for some time now. His faithful butler Alfred by his side. He is young, goth like. The villain of this piece being the Ridler. He has a vendetta against the people of Gotham. Clever riddles are left. Something for the audience to take part in guessing, I was wondering what he must be suffering from. Set design, costumes, props and effects were done well. You might enjoy the soundtrack. You have Penguin running his club. Catwoman working undercover looking for her own answers, she is sexy. Falcone is a big mob boss. Commissioner Jim Gordon is working on the latest case and relies on Batman. It is definitely worth taking a look at. There are no post or mid credits. Why do some of these reviewers include spoilers? I am only typing this stuff as I want to. I had seen Paul in Swiss Army Man. Robert did great in Tennet. There are impressive scenes which I won't mention. One critic on Rotten Tomatoes found this film to be too dark especially with current events. She is entitled to her opinion no matter how stupid it sounds. I am vengeance.
I watched The Batman vs Dracula. Have seen some clips on YouTube. I was intrigued at the concept. There is a season opener of Buffy and the Blade Trinity film which also features the legendary character. An animated movie. These were more popular than live action. Closer to the comics. Beginning with a prison breakout. The Penguin and Joker are after some treasure. Said to be located in a cemetery. The coffin of a certain vampire is also located here. Once he has been resurrected he goes about infecting civilians. Batman must try to fight Dracula and cure the citizens. Vicky Vale is a reporter and love interest. Alfred the butler is always on hand. It is good that there are other staff and not just Alfred on his own. Nice soundtrack. Good visuals. You might also like Batman Ninjago and Gotham By Gaslight. Cast: Rino Romano-
Bruce Wayne / The Batman,
Peter Stormare-

Kevin Michael Richardson-
