Legion World Forums LEGION COMPANION The Anywhere Machine So what are you WATCHING?

Scream Queens. Is. Amazing!

I am loving it! I was not expecting it to be so funny (Coney - OMG! I laughed so much!).

That and Survivor (also really good this season) are the only two TV shows I'm watching at the moment.

Yeah, the fact that SQ is primarily a dark comedy was a (welcome) surprise. I was expecting something like "Scream", but it's really more like "Scary Movie", only about 100 times funnier.

SCREAM QUEENS is exactly what I needed at exactly the right time. It IS me, there I said it. I'm obsessed with every over the top nanosecond of it.

AHSHOTEL will be worth it in the long run. I'm so into not really knowing Gaga/Bomer's true natures yet but thinking I do know.

EMPIRE is great for the OTP drama-starved as well. One brother's mental, one has Daddy issues from being tossed into the trash as a kid for being too nelly, and the third, well we'll call that Mommy issues to the max. The show is utterly fearless and runs a mile a minute.

My wife loves, loves, loves Scream Queens, so I kind of watch it by proxy as I'm reading comics. What I watch, I enjoy immensely: hilarious jokes, great one-liners, the incredible hottness of Emma Roberts, and Chad Rad (who is not too far away from early days Cobalt Kid).

I enjoyed Flash's return big time, though I had to remind myself to give it some time to get back into full gear and start building momentum again.

Other than that, not too many new shows I'm going out of my way to watch. Bastard Executioner had a great premiere but I'm letting that one build up for a full season before I watch anymore. I'll definitely be watching Fargo when it comes back.

If you're not watching From Dusk Till Dawn, then you're missing out!!!

Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid (1969)



I'm not a huge fan of westerns, but this movie was pretty awesome. Robert Redford and Paul Newman have great chemistry, which is helped by the fact that they were friends in real life too. The soundtrack is great, especially "Raindrops Keep Fallin' On My Head" and "South American Getaway". The use of montages and photos is well done and give the story a feeling of historical significance.

21st-century Sushi Bar.

What will it be like in another millenium?

I tried Scream Queens and I don't think it's for me. I've become more appreciative of camp over the years, but it's still an acquired taste for me, and this was a bit of overload. More power to the folks that like it (ironically, I'm looking looking forward to Ash vs. Evil Dead, which will likely be even MORE over the top).

One thing I've noticed (and commented on FB about), is that Murphy and Falchuk seem to have effectively cut American Horror Story in half, and put all the silliness into SQ while saving the purely creepy for Hotel, which I'm digging more.

My Ma took us to see that at the drive-in when we were kids. I definitely need to see this again. I wonder how Westworld holds up, we saw that and I remember hiding in the back seat when Jerry Lewis transformed in Nutty Professor.

Westworld is still a pretty awesome movie even after all these years. I would recommend giving it a rewatch when you get the chance.

Still works well, imho

Oh, and I checked out Scream Queens partially on some of y'all's recommendations and really dig the hell outta it! Definitely putting it into the rotation.

Leftovers is now IMHO the best show on TV by a country mile. Every episode is just so well crafted around these characters, that even my least favourite characters of the bunch still have fantastic episodes. Tonight's episode focused on Lori, and while I thought Amy B. did a great job with the character last year, I didn't think she had much narrative left to her. Boy was I wrong. Her anger and hubris made for some compelling TV.

I'm still anxious to get back to Jarden and figure out what's happening there, but this was a great detour.

I quit "The Leftovers" a few eps in - it just seemed like a prolonged memorial service with little progress. Depressing as shit. Now that there's a second season, and with your ringing endorsement, (Wildfire to Wildfire ;)) I might give it a second chance.

I've been burning through "Person of Interest" since it popped up on Netflix. I had initially taken it as a CSI type network show with a different premise, but little more than that, but it's MUCH better than I had thought. Really clever stories, a surprising sense of humor when it needs it, season-long arcs that really pay off emotionally, new twists to the status quo as soon as you feel comfortable with one that builds the mythology of the show, etc. Just a fun show, top to bottom.

Oh, and Cookie Lyon with a big-ass sniper rifle, and grenade launcher??? Oh, yeah....

I'm always intrigued by "Person of Interest", but have never got around to actually watching it.

My latest jam is "Crazy Ex-Girlfriend", which I don't think entirely works but when it does is completely terrific.

Fargo has been nothing short of awesome so far this season, as expected.

Found I was three eps behind on IZombie (where has Fall gone?) and in a bit of a funk, just wasn't going to do it, but then clicked. So glad I did. Still characters I'd enjoy handing with. Good balance to avoid over the top. Second Ep had me rolling.

Does YouTube count? Cause I've pretty much been living off of Retsupurae's WrongPlays at work...

The Graduate (1967)



This film blew my mind with how good it was. I normally hate dramas, but this one had me hooked, mainly because of how relatable it felt at times.

^^This confirms my longheld theory that older women regularly try to seduce Nostalgia Lad!

Just by looking at his Facebook page I can confirm that theory!

Mrs. Robinson: Do you find me undesirable?
Benjamin: Oh no, Mrs. Robinson. I think, I think you're the most attractive of all my parents' friends. I mean that.

I can neither confirm nor deny that theory.

Great, classic western that still holds up well. I own it and watch it every so often. My wife was instantly converted into a love-stricken devotee of Paul Newman when she first saw it (and then especially when she saw Cool Hand Luke).

And for people who loved the chemistry of Redford and Newman, it's even more enjoyable in the The Sting!

The Sting is on my list of movies I need to see. Butch Cassidy was my introduction to Newman and I'm hungry for more!

Ebert, surprisingly, gave Butch and Sundance a mixed review. He enjoyed the beginning immensely but found the last hour drug out too long, and wasn't as fresh as the rest of the film. He also thought the ending aped too much from Bonnie & Clyde, which is something I never thought of before, but I can totally see now that he brings it up. I still thought it was great, but it's interesting to see an alternate point of view.
