Just started Chernobyl on Binge. Reminds me of our 2023 season

I couldn’t get through it, once it gets to the radiation poisoning stuff I switched it off.

I have been watching The Idol on Binge. Take out the sex related stuff and you're left with about 15 minutes from 4 hours of show so far. Bit disappointing from HBO.
Brave of you to watch, I’ve heard it’s one of the worst shows of all time.

Was unwell and having a day in bed and watched them simply coz it was new. Can confirm what you've heard is not far off.

Don't get me wrong, it was eye opening and well written/acted. I just couldn't handle those scenes.

Yeah fair call, I was going to say I enjoyed it but I don't think enjoy is really the right word
It's never a good sign when the pre-release spin from the people involved contains lines like "really proud of what we achieved" and "not everyone is going to like it".
The cinematic equivalent is "I think people should go and see it and decide for themselves" because they desperately need the ticket sales.

Does anyone understand the hype around the Barbie movie? It looks ****en terrible.
Directed by Greta Gerwig, who is an Oscar-relevant writer/director. Margot Robbie is pretty and a decent actress. Ryan Gosling's abs are all over the place in the promos. Barbie is a recognisable brand and people like the song Barbie Girl.
Mop
Not anymore
Nostalgia amongst those now in their adult prime.
I'd also like to never see the trailer for the new Transformers ever again. Or indeed any Transformers.

They should've stopped at the second one, which was questionable in itself.
Sounds like it has all the delicious ingredients of Ang Lee's Hulk, which I'm sure it'll be just as good as.

They should have stopped when they killed Jazz in the first one

Disappointing they put 15 minutes of non sex related show in there orrr?
Ochre
:o
At the absolute minimum, Barbie should create some great memes.

At the time of watching it I thought to myself that it's the kind of show that would be popular in the 90s due to the sexually explicit content, but these days it's not like it's hard to find that kind if stuff if you're after it.

Is this the show with Johnnie Depp's daughter?
Yep
Been watching Million dollar island, it's watchable!
