I always wondered when I was younger why they couldn't successfully translate Pratchett books to the screen. I think they just didn't have the budget or the technology.

It's unfortunate that they came along 30 years too late for the 10 year old me, but the couple of adaptations that they did on Sky were surprisingly not shit. Not shit at all.

Still trying to decide if The Rook is really good or Spooks meets Hustle with some superpowers added.
I think part of the problem might be the presence of Adrian Lester. He’s a decent actor but carries the whiff of cheese from Hustle and of poo from the absolutely rank Riviera, which means I can’t believe him in character.

Last season of Killjoys has started.
I bloody love this show. The creator Michelle Lovretta has a real talent for fun, entertaining, inclusive, female led Sci fi silliness. This and Lost Girl have been real tv highlights for me over the last few years.

So do you think they'll make Cibola Burn last the whole of season 4, or kick off Nemesis games towards the end?
That would make season 5 the nemesis games/babylon's ashes season.
I'm not sure where they could go after that without...

I’m watching Always Be My Maybe. Most of it has been a sort of acceptable standard rom-com. Now, though, there’s just been a fantastic restaurant scene. I don’t want to spoil it. But it’s made the film worth watching.Last edited by San Bernardhinault; 29-07-2019, 04:22.

Anyone else seen 'Booksmart'? I would normally start a stand alone thread for a movie but given this has been out in the UK for two months and is already almost disappeared from cinemas I doubt it would sustain one.
I finally saw it tonight and it was fantastic. Fantastically smart, funny script, great performances from a lesser known cast (a few cameos aside), quite touching in places and a killer soundtrack. I don't think I've seen any of the recent 'coming of age' movies it's been compared to like 'Superbad' because none of them came across with the wit and charm this one had even just from the trailer.
Anyway, thoroughly recommended when it ends up on streaming platforms and the like.

Having just caught up with the fact The Expanse was deleted from Netflix, I checked I had access on amazon prime by dipping back into the middle of S2...and have watched most of it again.
