Come, spill it out! What movies or series did you watch this week? Let us know!
PS: Have made this a monthly thread instead. Easier for me :P
Suddenly binge watching Brooklyn 99 S1 haha
Cool idea!! I'm working through It's Always Sunny season 16 and this anime called Tengoku Daimakyou.
The Sunny guys are such gremlins but it's so fun to watch. And the anime is really charming, it nails that post-apocalyptic but chill vibe, kinda like Cowboy Bebop / Black Lagoon / Samurai Champloo. Like welp the worst has already happened, we might as well get comfortable. With a few excellent storytelling elements too.
Fun fact, the Champloo in Samurai Champloo comes from our "campur" (チャンプルー is an Okinawan mixed stir fry)
If I say campur like that (champloo) to the Japanese or heck even the Chinese here I would get cancelled xD

Recall History lesson when Melaka Sultanate had diplomatic relationships with Ryukyu Kingdom? That's Okinawa Prefecture today.
Ryukyuans really got the short end of the stick. They became vassals to a Japanese daimyo (a local domain lord) which is one step below the Shogun. It means the Shogun bosses the daimyos, and the Satsuma daimyo bosses the entire Ryukyu Kingdom. They're so low on the runk that it's not uncommon for slaves to own Ryukyuan slaves. Yes, slaves owning slaves.
Midway through the third season of the Witcher. Since it's the last season with Henry Cavill, wonder if they'll do justice to him on the last episode by giving a nice farewell. His grunts gonna be missed.
Also no spoilerino to me ya, so far this season feeling off the the previous ones. Like pacing more slower and main characters not doing much. Will see if that changes later on.
Oh no... Is S2 the only good one in this case.... (I genuinely cannot stand s1. It didn't take me long to continue just to hatewatch. Horrible pacing and storyboarding.)
Season 2 is probably the best, but I still haven't finished watching S3 yet. But so far not really seeing it would be better than S2.
Adoi...maybe it's good rezeki after all that Cavill is leaving
It is funny how Witcher fans hated s2 the most 🤣 Yea I preferred s2 too.
Shin Kamen Rider! I wrote up a review
Which made me rewatch Kamen Rider Black Sun (still at ep 1 tho lol).
Tonight if traffic doesn't kill me, Mission Impossible Dead Reckoning for the 2nd time 😌
Secret Invasion
TIL it's already 4 episodes in. I'll be watching these at my own pace.
After my experience with the other series, a bit reluctant to start. Good ah?
It is suppose to make sense of Far From Home's post-credit scene, where Nick Fury in the film was a disguise and reporting to the actual Nick Fury somewhere in space.
My feeling is Secret Invasion is "essential watching" like WandaVision and Loki S1, where it ties into future MCU movies.
Oh well, since I have one more month of Disney+ subscription left, might as well. I've not been impressed with this years' series, hopefully it has picked up.
I'm rewatching Community again, the first 3 seasons only though.
Cool. Cool cool cool
Silo. Get the good heat tape if you're going out cleaning.
Also found out it's a novel series adaptation. Gonna find and listen to the audiobook later perhaps.
