I’ve seen it. Pretty sure all the nerds on this forum have.

What that name of the dude who confess on his death bead that Light is not Kira.
That by all rights should of derailed the Investigation, as a death bed confession taken pretty seriously.

Also the rules of the Book is mostly Bullshit after rule 4 (the rules over the Death Gods themselves) as there so many loop holes the death gods can take.

Death Note was pretty good. It wasn’t faithful to the source material at all but I found it pretty enjoyable. I was hesitant to press play but time flew by when watching it. It’s a little cheesy and I don’t think It was on purpose but overall I liked it. The biggest knocks against it (if your aren’t a weeaboo) are that the mind game between Light and L are completely removed and the pacing feels super rushed because they try to cram so much stuff into an 1:40 movie. I hope it gets a sequel but I have a feeling it’s going to be hated by everyone.

Looks hype…

I heard Daredevil was pretty good, but I haven’t chosen to renew my Netflix in a while.

its a good time.

I finally saw Dear White People and I gotta say it was pretty good. They definitely used the movie as a jumping point, but really fleshed out the characters afterward and ended it all on an interesting note. I hope S2 comes out soon.

Yeah, considering the source material it seems fine enough and at least on par with live action Japanese movie they put out a few years ago. Some people just can’t be pleased no matter what when something is adapted to another media or region.

Real talk, those juicy lips is what carried me through Jessica Jones.

Raz0r · August 30, 2017, 10:03pm

Just everything about her when you actually see her is hot. If she wasn’t famous I could see her being a Williamsburg hipster who fades into a liver disease by 35.

weaboos love to do two things that i find interesting.

blame hollywood for shitty movie adaptions…when they still have to buy the rights from japan. if you wanna cry why not to japan? is it because of the evillll white man?
they never wanna admit, japan has been making shit adaptions for decades…long before america got into the mix. is asian washing a thing? cause it should be for some of those adaptians that were clearly not meant to be asian.

Thomas Jane has a gig…

Effective Oct. 19, Netflix customers will begin to see increases in their monthly subscription bills if they are signed on to the standard or premium plans. For everyone that gets by with the basic plan — you win this round.

The standard plan will see a bump from $9.99 per month to $10.99 per month, while the premium plan jumps up two dollars, rising to $13.99 per month from the previous $11.99 per month. Though current customers will reportedly be informed of the bill change come the middle of October, those who try to sign up today will already see the updated prices.

Netflix’s upcharge marks the first major price increase since 2014. The streaming service still offers a lower price than HBO Now ($15 per month), but the premium plan now surpasses the monthly cost of Hulu Plus ($11.99 per month).

Given the ever-increasing number of shows and films exclusively streaming on Netflix, (i.e. Stranger Things), the price bump probably won’t deter too many people from keeping their accounts. Even so, the subscriptions function on a month-to-month basis, so customers can back out whenever they want.

Prepare to pay more for Netflix…

I personally enjoyed Man on the Moon…so I’ll check this out.

Just finished Mindhunter, great show.

Don_Barracuda · October 21, 2017, 8:58pm

Just finished watching ep1, acting seems a bit shaky in parts but liking it so far.

Million · October 22, 2017, 12:21am

sheeeeit, Kristen is thinner than what I normally like but damn I’d ravage the unholy hell out of that. She could piss on me and I’d be fine with it.
Obviously I’m looking forward to Jessica Jones season 2.

I’m so lazy with the binging though…I’m still only about halfway done with Defenders and just finished watching Jessica Jones a couple of months ago…never finished watching Luke Cage or Iron Fist either.

Speaking of Jessica Jones, here’s some “old” news that showed up on my feed some time ago via Syfy wire:

syfy.com/syfywire/krysten-ritter-was-punched-in-the-face-and-passed-out-during-jessica-jones-fight-scene

Few could dispute that Krysten Ritter plays one kick-ass former superhero in Jessica Jones. And we’ve only seen her action prowess increase in The Defenders crossover, where Ritter has been pushing herself further in fight scenes. Perhaps even a little too far.

In a recent interview with Women’s Health magazine, the actress explains how during one onscreen action battle filmed in July, she ended up getting punched in the face and subsequently passed out. "I saw the blood everywhere, and I panicked,” she revealed.

“I felt like such a loser the first time,” she added on the subject of fight scenes. “I didn’t know how to throw a punch – why would I? Who knows how to throw a punch? Now I do it all the time, and it makes me feel strong. It’s so f—ing fun.”

Ritter’s interpretation of the hard-living former superhero trying to reinvent herself as a private eye has been a hit with Marvel fans. Judging by her dedication to performing her own stunts, it’s not hard to see why, either.

In fact, the actress just keeps giving us reasons to love her more: She recently revealed to Vulture how she stays sane with the hectic filming schedule by indulging in things just for her, including: juice, knitting, reading, and watching Game of Thrones. (As well as, as she put it, still eating pizza and “sandwiches the size of my head.”)

The Defenders and Marvel’s Jessica Jones are all available to stream on Netflix now. Filming for Season 2 of Jessica Jones began in April this year and is scheduled to be released in 2018.

Gotta say that was very unfortunate but props to her for making it a great learning experience on how to throw punches and not being on the receiving end.
