Thirteen lives - film about the Thailand cave rescue in 2018. If the film is anywhere near accurate, man that was a tough rescue. Recommended.

Wow - carter is extremely violent
I’ve not seen Thirteen Lives, but there’s the original film/documentary cleverly called The Rescue on Disney & that was really good. Total mish-mash of enthusiasts, normal bods & eccentrics doing a great job.

Reminds me of the graphic novel, which is like a 30,35? years old memory. Some of the shots are definitely taken directly from there.
Liking it so far.

We’re 5 episodes in to Sandman and are enjoying it. We watched 3 episodes on Friday and another 2 last night. Episode 5 was very good.
Mrs W is a huge Neil Gaiman fan. I think the fans of the graphic novels have a very particular opinion on how the TV show should look, which is probably why it looks so much like the books. I think they’ve changed the gender of some of the characters though, which hasn’t necessarily gone down well with some fans

Just got told about this by a mate. Wasn’t on my radar at all
For hobbit fans

Yeah i love this stuff, so I’ve been looking forward to it for a while. But I have a feeling it’s not going to live up to Peter Jackson. I know a lot of people got really iffy with the hobbit trilogy. But I loved that too.
I despair.
What about those of us who don’t like;
Dungeons and Dragons
Sci-Fi
Comic books
MCU
That’s literally everything at the minute.
Anyway, I found some wheat amongst the chaff;
Trying (season 2. Apple TV. Couple adopt some kids.)
Physical (season 2. Apple TV. Woman battles personal demons via a Reebok Step in the 80s)
Loot. (Apple TV. Billionaires wife gets divorced. Uses money for good. But she’s a bit shit. So it’s funny)
Woodstock ‘99 (Netflix. What. The. Actual. Fuck. Who thought this was a good idea? 
Music is good like)
The Resort (Peacock. Like the White Lotus. But more caper-ish and a lighter tone. If disappearances and plots are “light”)
I Love That For You (Paramount+. Odd woman REALLY wants a job as a shopping network presenter. Gets one. Oddness ensues. Amusing)
Gods of Snooker (iPlayer. My days. Brilliant)

Right, so you’re a similar age to me, as is @gingerbongo - at that point, I was vacuuming up everything to do with US (sub)Culture; ice hockey, skating, basketball, East/West coast rap, nu-metal, pop punk.
Loved it all.
But I never heard of this festival until now
The internet doth a small world make.

I’ve heard of Woodstock, not sure why.
Wasn’t particularly into the whole American thing though. Other than a few nu-metal and pop punk bands on (my friends’) MTV that i liked listening to, but wasn’t into the clothing/culture etc. Never really liked the US centric sports, still don’t. Wasn’t into rap or their TV or style stuff.

Yeah I’ve always had an interest in American culture too.
You’ve probably heard of wooodstock @gingerbongo because of the 1969 festival - ‘summer of love’ etc…
I never heard of ‘99’ - I read an article yesterday about with purely shocking behaviour - I can’t say I know much more but will probably watch the show at some point
