I have seen both but it has been about 30 years. Ah memories. That would be The Wanderers and The Ducky Boys (who were actually a very real gang) were the ones to interrupt the match .....a movie favourite regardless of the fact it would never win an Academy award. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monty Posted June 13, 2016 Share Posted June 13, 2016 Reviews have been fairly decent for Popstar: Never Stop Never Stopping. If my wife wasn't in the middle of report card season, perhaps I'd check it out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hammertime Posted June 13, 2016 Share Posted June 13, 2016 The good dinosaur 8/10 Great for the kiddies. A corn fed family of dinosaurs tend their farm when a storm comes and kills a family member while the son watches. Then teradactyle like creatures tear to shreds a raccoon like creature. Sam elliot appears as a buffalo hearding tyranasaurus which is amazing. And there is a dog who appears in the form of a small orphan boy . Overall its basically a mashup of homeward bound and the fox and the hound with dinosaurs. Will probably watch again and again my daughter likes dinosaurs.

GLASSJAW Posted June 14, 2016 Share Posted June 14, 2016 forgot all about this. i tried watching (season 1) of Attack on Titan. the third anime series I've tried to watch, ever. I saw this being mentioned all over the place and it has high ratings around the internet, so I figured I'd give it a try. annnnd no. not for me. I got a shocking 19 episodes into the 25 episode season (each being about 20 minutes), and I just cannot continue. the story is absurd - not in a good way i'd give it like a 4/10, points being given for creativity and art, but that's about it.

Hugor Hill Posted June 14, 2016 Share Posted June 14, 2016 The Insider - 9.5/10 Awesome. Must watch if you haven't seen it. Russell Crowe's stereotypically annoying wife is the only drawback of this movie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have massive OCD when it comes to this stuff, you have no idea. If I start a series, I finish it. If I start a book, I (almost always) finish it. I've turned off like five movies in the last 10 years. I watched all 7 seasons of True Blood and I hated almost every minute of seasons 2-7. the fact that I couldn't even bring myself to finish the final 6 episodes of Attack on Titan despite my OCD approach to viewing speaks to my distaste, I think.

I've never seen 1 second of True Blood, just the commercials for it. Looks like an absolute dumpster fire of a show.

g_bassi13 Posted June 14, 2016 Share Posted June 14, 2016 I don't have that don't have that kind of issue of dropping a show I started with. It could be very early on like with The Walking Dead. But it could be into the last season of a show, like with sons of anarchy. Or The Shield. Or How I met your Mother. Or other shows that got worse and worse, until they were about nothing. I like to give leeway, but when it gets to a certain point, I'm totally content having no idea how something turned out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's where I'm at now. Pretty sure it was committing to Dexter where I learned my lesson. I finally stopped watching Walking Dead midway through this season, because that show is the definition of "Wash, Rinse, Repeat." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
g_bassi13 Posted June 14, 2016 Share Posted June 14, 2016 One example from very recently is the Sci-fi show Continuum. Really enjoyed season 1, season 2 a little less so. Season 3 just lost the plot. I was so dis-interested that I didn't watch season 4 until just now, over two years after the season 3, and 10 months after it aired. Even though it was only a shortened six episodes of commitment. And it didn't exactly reward that commitment. 6 minutes ago, Monty said: That's where I'm at now. Pretty sure it was committing to Dexter where I learned my lesson.

Didn't need any special foresight to see where the show was going after the season 2 mid-season finale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GLASSJAW Posted June 14, 2016 Share Posted June 14, 2016 ^^lol yeah I can see why that stuff would be an issue for a lot of shows. I guess where I differ is that I don't really pick up TV shows all that often, since I don't have cable anymore. I generally just test out HBO content, or stuff that I am particularly hyped for, like Ash vs. Evil Dead... and speaking of which, I never finished Ash vs. Evil Dead. I was so busy during that period I just totally forgot about it. Should finish up that series soon. I hope season 2 starts earlier in the year this time. Maybe early Oct, rather than late - seemed silly to be watching that show in December. Just wasn't into it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monty Posted June 14, 2016 Share Posted June 14, 2016 I'm certainly not at that point with Game of Thrones; however, it's become so "meh" the last two seasons that I wouldn't even care if I stopped watching. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monty Posted June 14, 2016 Share Posted June 14, 2016 I'll never watch True Blood. As much of a waste of time tv is (and I love wasting time watching tv), that show looks like a teenagers wet dream. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Down by the River Posted June 14, 2016 Share Posted June 14, 2016 I'm the least committed TV show/movie enthusiast. Last night I turned Captain America off after about 13 minutes simply because I noticed that it was 2.5hrs long and I couldn't imagine any comic book-based movie being able to satisfy me for a full 150 minutes.
