GOT - Thank goodness it ended.

Maybe they should have waited for the books to be done? I dunno the last 2 seasons felt meh, the ending not such a surprise at all

Started watching White Gold last night and it is a nice entertaining English series staring Ed Westwick from Gossip Girl.

Its already on Season 2.

Looks very good. DC live action hit a home run with Doom Patrol. If this is halfway as good, it’ll definitely be worth watching.

Looks like the release date is soon, can’t wait.

Yes Doom Patrol is sufficiently cynical and heroic at the same time to make for a good story

I will be honest, I was not a huge fan of Doom Patrol, I only like Jane, the story made me very deurmekaar and I kept shouting at the tv to get on with it

I like all the Janes :grinning: (Except maybe Babydoll - she irritates more than entertains me).

Agree that Doom Patrol makes for confusing watching at times, but honestly that’s one of the reasons it appeals to me so much - it’s a little out of the ordinary and “out there” in general. Very different to standard superhero stuff.

Its one of those stories I was investigating as a kid, I found it fascinating. The Hot Zone is also based on a true story.

I would like one on Three mile Island as well

Ok, so today I watched the last episode of Chernobyl, I have known the facts and figures for years. But the way they told the story had me in tears. It is a slow build, there is no frantic feeling in it at all. But the pace shows you how it might have happened.
To visit Prypriat is one of my wishlist locations. Just from the images that have been released in the last 5 years it is amazing to see how the lack of humans has let the land heal and reclaim the area.

No dates or any specific release details just yet, but I know there are a few Magic the Gathering fans around who might want to keep an eye on this…

MtG, Avengers directors, Star Wars writers, Netflix… sounds like a solid plan.
