What are you watching on Netflix and Amazon Prime?

[Super Bee]

Anyone check this out yet? Was going to watch last night, but didn't have the time. Might watch it this evening.

Some pretty solid actors, odd how little marketing these Netflix shows are getting.

I thought it started out ok then kinda went . . meh. I was hoping it was better.

More than halfway through the 2nd season of Tin Star. Really enjoying it.

Downloading The Expanse Season 3 onto the tablet for a long plane ride. Glad Amazon picked up this season. I haven't seen it for so long that I might need to also grab S1 & S2 to refresh my memory.

It's as good as the other seasons. I also had to quickly browse the first two seasons so I could remember what happened.

F1 doc on Netflix is great if you like racing. Still keeping up The Grand Tour, and rewatching James Mays Toy Stories on Amazon.

I need someone to show me how to download movies to tablets. I saw someone say this before but i forgot to ask how.

If the show is downloadable, it should show as such in Netflix or Prime. Not all shows can be downloaded.

In Netflix, it shows up as a downward pointing arrow over a bar on the right side of the selection bar.

In Prime, it's a downward pointing arrow in a circle next to the play button.

I know that with Netflix, it also depends on the stats of the tablet.

My old Kindle 7 tablet didn't have the guts to download. I could stream no problem.

Newer / better tablets with newer versions of Android can download no problem...like my Fire 10.

I watched the first season of Hap & Leonard based on the good reviews up thread. It was pretty good. It had a few slow parts and a couple of scenes of really bad dialogue, but overall I enjoyed it.

I did have a big beef with most of the gun handling though, especially in episodes 4 and 5. How many times can one character cock the hammer on the same DA/SA handgun? I think they were going for a world record. There were multiple instances of the same characters cocking the hammer on the same gun multiple times within the same scene.

RT says it's on Amazon now. FX is turning it into a series:

A very underrated show/series/movie or whatever the kids are calling it nowadays. I thought the basic premise and execution for this was hilarious. I also understand I have a an odd sense of humor so I usually hesitate to recommend funny things that are not pretty mainstream.

My wife: "how do think that's funny?"
"How do you not think it's funny?!"

It went on like that for ten minutes.

Just finished it. Not a bad movie. Decent story and good actors. Lots of gunplay.

I did find this article about the film and using "live ammo".

https://www.inverse.com/article/541...fleck-oscar-isaac-trained-with-live-fire-ammo

Neat write up. That does explain why the gun handling was a LOT less cringey if not good. I also noticed from the article:
-- they trained for days without live ammo or blanks and used live ammo at a point. Not sure if that was once or days but it wasn't all the time.
-- actors kept stressing how they were surprised by being trusted with LIVE AMMO. They feel compelled to assure their lib base who they know are uncomfortable at that point in the article. I took it as their way of saying 'don't worry, we still understand that having guns, especially with LIVE AMMO, means we are more likely to shoot ourselves than do any good.'

Lol! You just described the scene perfectly that happened with a lot of the movies I had in mind when I said my humor is not always mainstream. Sounds like you get that too.

Afterlife with Ricky Gervais on Netflix. Crude humor but good series.

 

[Super Bee]

Dirt. Anyone watch the new Motley Crue movie on Netflix yet?

 

[djkbmwguy]

On Netflix we watch NCIS, Blue Bloods, Longmire, Turn, Hawaii Five O. We have Hulu also and on that watch Mash, Survivor, Amazing Race, Last Man Standing.

I highly recommend the Ballad of Buster Scruggs. I tried watching the series You but could not get interested in it. Hap and Leonard is good.

[COOPADUP]

I agree Wolfhound. Buster Scruggs was kind of a sleeper and didn't get a lot of advertisement.
What a neat concept with multiple stories.
I enjoyed all of them

Watched Hell or High Water with Jeff Bridges as a Texas Ranger.

Good flick and worth watching just to see the Hot waitress scene.

edit: my tech skills are lacking so I can't get the full screen video to post. Just Google "what don't you want"

You got me! Gotta watch it now!

 

[femurphy77]

Love, Death and Robots on Netflix. If you like scifi

Watched that the other night, pretty good. It'd be neat to see some of the shorts come out as feature length movies built on the concepts of the shorts.

 

[frenchiectfd2203]

Just watched Hell or High Water.. pretty ok.
