“Lost” writer David Lindelof resurrects his old show’s titillating mystery cliffhanger style in his new project, Watchmen, and it works perfectly. The show continues driving us down the rabbit hole and man is it great fun. Episode 2 gives us some leads to the questions from episode 1, provided by the slick goggle sequence, and then even more questions arise. That’s just the way this series is going to shape out, so you better not miss a minute of this one or you’ll be left behind.
Best New Series “Watchmen”
I confess I am unfamiliar with the comic, but I did watch the 2009 film. Interestingly, having watched the film did not prepare me at all for the first episode of the series. I enjoyed the film but already within a one hour episode the film was eclipsed in all categories by the series. It’s mind bending, mysterious, fun and unpredictable. The only downside is that it is only available on HBO.
Halloween Movie Recommendation on HBO Streaming 10/18 “Happy Death Day” and “Happy Death Day 2U”
Fire up Happy Death Day and Happy Death Day 2U. These flicks are genuine laugh out loud horror film parodies with sci fi twists. Think Groundhog Day meets Scream meets Back to the Future. In fact, if you look closely you’ll notice a cool retro poster of Back to the Future in part 2 on the wall of the dorm room.
Joe Scarborough Goes Ballistic on Trump Supporters
Morning Joe was not mincing words Friday morning when he called Trump supporters stupid for eating up all of the lies their leader spews out on a minute to minute basis. He even suggested that the supporters should not be allowed near blenders. He has a point.
Lady GaGa Takes a Licking, Keeps on Ticking
After playfully flirting with a fan on stage, riding and straddling, the two slipped off the edge of the stage and took a fairly big wallop to the ground, causing fans to scream in holy terror! But have no fear, GaGa got right back up on stage and called the fan fellow back up to continue the super energized performance. Well done GaGa!
Review Part 2: El Camino: A Breaking Bad Movie
Anyone with a brain knows that Vince Gilligan should have taken over at the helm of both Star Wars and Star Trek. While JJ Abrams was honorable to both franchises, Gilligan would have crushed it. Meanwhile, there’s always SS Callister, Black Mirror: Season 4, Episode 1, to check out for Star Trek fans. So yeah, go see the new BB movie in a theater or save money and buy your own popcorn and watch it on your big screen TV.
Trump Rips Off a Dead Man
Wednesday, at a campaign rally in Minnesota, Trump played Purple Rain over the loudspeakers for all the deplorables to hear, despite being ordered by Prince’s estate to not ever play a Prince track at his events. Mister president, have you no shame? He then went on to sling insults at The Boss, referring to him disparagingly as “Little Bruce Springsteen.” Could “Little Hands Donald “ be projecting?
Film Review: El Camino: A Breaking Bad Movie
Has Vince Gilligan ever created anything less than great? Remember Season 11, Episode 7: “Rm9sbG93ZXJz” of The X-Files? I’d highly recommend this new BB flick as something to watch while waiting on the next season of Better Call Saul, Bitch! (That’s a Pinkman reference, hello!?!?).
