When you're ready, there's a thread for this. 

Thanks!!

Lots of spoilers in there though

also I couldn't even make it through the first episode of the expanse, total snore fest!

I don't know how bad your ADD is, but you should probably give it a couple more episodes, at least. I do seem to recall the first one being a little slow. The series as a whole is far from a snore fest. We watched the seasons 1 and 2 recap last night to get ready for season 3 - a shitload of stuff is going on in that series as it builds up.

It was just really slow and uninteresting - its like they were trying too hard to act like they really know what its like to live in space and shit...

 

[RBHeadge PE]

Come to think of it, there was a lot of world building in the beginning of the first episode. You could practically see the network notes reflected in certain scenes. It got much more exciting towards the end of the episode.

The Incredibles 2, which was pretty good! Definitely enjoyable. No kids involved when I watched it.

 

[Supe]

Just watched Incredibles 2 this past weekend, thought it was OK, but nowhere near as good as the first.

 

[leggo PE]

I don't really remember the first, seeing how I saw it so long ago.

I watched Abducted in Plain Sight and HFS! I mean...HFS!

I'm almost through this one.  How stupid were those parents?  I'm mean there is naive and then there are those people.  The parents should have been put in jail too for allowing that dude to SLEEP WITH THEIR 12 YR OLD DAUGHTER.  I dont even know how to process some of the crap that they let go on.  Stupid, stupid, stupid.

I think it's an interesting study on organized religion, though it wasn't an overt part of the doc.

I haven't seen where that plays a part yet.  The LDS did reprimand him for "involvement with another girl" and sent to counceling.

That's really the crux of it. I'm sure they didn't question it, because it was in-church counseling. Granted, he was lying about it, but they very much so believed that's what needed to happen so they didn't question it.

We finished Umbrella Academy last week.  It was "fine", but Ellen Page annoys the shit out of me.  I don't find her to be a particularly good actress, and can't stand that every single role I've ever seen her in, she basically just plays "Ellen Page"...

 

[cement]

I think that she's played Ellen Page better.

The rest of it was pretty OK

Looks like I wasn't the only one thinking this.

Watched a couple of episodes of The Toys That Made Us yesterday.  I have the power to say that's a good show.

 

[Dleg]

^My son and I watched three episodes of that last weekend, and it was some quality time with him.  We watched the episodes on Legos, Star Trek, and Star Wars.  The Star Trek episode was pretty funny, with some amazingly bad toys that I actually remember playing with from the 1970s....

 

[Road Guy]

Is that on Netflix?

 

[Dleg]

Yes

 

[Master slacker]

I watched the Star Wars and He-Man episodes.  SW was straight forward and informative.  He-Man was pretty funny and has colorful language in it that children may repeat in front of mom or strangers at inopportune times.
