    Sarah Paulson is pretty good.

    Reminds me also, the new season of American Horror Story is out now as well.

    Cuties (Netflix, 2020).

    I've heard so much bullshit about this movie, mostly from trumpanzees and QAnon freaks. You can't criticise something that you haven't seen, and Netflix didn't help by doing a trailer that sensationalises the most grotesque parts of the film without putting them in context, an error for which it's apologised.

    So, I bit the bullet to give you my summation:

    What it isn't:


    • An exploitation of young girls to entertain paedophiles.
    • An attempt at normalising the sexualisation of young girls.
    • Terribly shocking (because there is worse than that shit posted on TikTok and Snapchat every day, and kids have been twerking since Britney Spears hit the stage and started thrusting her pelvis at male dancers, a trope that continues to do it this day with the likes of Miley Cyrus is she hasn't outgrown them).


    What it is:

    • The story of a young Senegalese girl who rebels against her family's religion and culture and finds a feeling of belonging in a bunch of schoolmates who are training for a dance contest.
    • A movie that ultimately shows how wrong that is and warns against how youngsters are being sexualised far too early.
    • Not a very interesting film, really could have been a short.
    • Probably wanking material for fucking paedos, but they'll find their "entertainment" any way they can and that isn't an excuse to censor it or the subject. People need educating.


    2/10 for bringing the subject into public debate, but the ones on the side against the movie are genuinely ignorant, haven't watched it and completely miss the point of it. You just know their kids are watching porn on the internet because they know how to install a free VPN, and the parents haven't got a fucking clue. Of course if you tell them that, they get in a right tizzy, because they're thick c u n t s.

    ^Spot on. It was nothing more than boring and of no particular interest. 2/10 is generous, but I agree with your reasoning...I guess.

    I'll guarantee you there are 11 year old girls all over the West copying this video (and learning the lyrics), which is freely accessible on Facetubegram, and posting their efforts on the Interwebnet.

    ^My five year old granddaughter dances around sticking her (non)-butt out; learns it from her tablet. The OMG! seppo reactions to that movie were simply incredible.

    I suspect the fact that it was made by a Muslim woman gave them a good excuse as well.

    Movie/tv download recommendations-kingdom-e1593798096819-png

    Ive just finished Season 1 of Kingdom.

    It's based around an ex MMA fighter who now trains other fighters including his 2 sons in his struggling gym that he runs with his fit as fuck younger girlfriend. Ano old friend and former champion is released from prison and comes to the gym to revive his fighting career.

    Ticks all the boxes for me, fit birds, tits and ass, MMA, violence, gangsters, pimps, drugs and some laughs.

    3 seasons in total, available on Netflix.



    Kingdom (TV Series 2014–2017) - IMDb 8.5/10 on IMDB. Agreed.

    I thought "Ratched" looked pretty good to start with; it didn't live up to my hopes.

    I recommended it (more than once, I think) years ago on this thread- it's a great show. You'd likely also enjoy 'Animal Kingdom' (similar name, no relation), which, while it's a crime drama, has the same entertaining dysfunctional family vibe.

    Utopia

    I've only watched the first episode out of eight. Interesting enough that I'll probably look at a couple more later tonight.

    Not quite sure why that needed remaking tbh. The seppos always think they can do better and invariably they do worse.

    Rough around the edges, it's mainly based around Scotland. James Bondish, England has the plague and Scotland has gone medieval.

    My 3rd time doing Narcos.

    Just at the end of S03.

    Eee poota, dee nadaa.


    It could also possibly count as Spanish lessons.

    The Capture (TV, 2019)

    Not sure if it has been posted before, but this is six hour-long episodes.

    A squaddie is facing trial for shooting a Talitubby but gets cleared on video evidence. After his celebration he snogs his brief but then she's reported as missing, and video points to him as the chief suspect.

    Much mayhem ensues with spooks and police in a big conspiracy.

    It's not absolutely brilliant but it's a passable 6.5/10 if you're running out of things to watch.

    Season 4 of Fargo is thus far as brilliant as the previous seasons. I had never before seen Chris Rock in anything. Pity about his voice. I wonder if it was a childhood illness? Or if his balls just never dropped.....
