I think people underestimate how much a million bucks is.

I would do a lot of things for a lot less.

Property prices these days it won't even buy you a mansion. Plus therapy costs.

 

[ashley12]

Why do I need a mansion anyway. I will settle for just the rocket car.

 

[Mr Eagle]

Jet pack or hovercar would be fine, thank you.

The price of petrol then.

I smashed through 3 seasons of Barry in 4 days. How did I miss this show?

Good effort. Speaking of Barry, I just caught up on Archer.

Legit felt the first 5 seasons of Archer was some of my favourite television ever - toilet humour, espionage and ultra violence. I struggled through the noir Hollywood season and turned it off halfway through the island. Haven't gone back since.

Haven’t watched S3 yet but my goodness Barry is such a great show. Everyone should be watching it at all times.

So good, season 3

Spoiler

was legit surprised at how fast I turned on him.

And a post from a few days ago - Stephen Root is a great co-star, always such a slimy campaigner.

DanWCE if you like Breaking Bad and Ozark you'll love Barry.

They’ve been back to being spies for the last two seasons but Jessica Walter's health prevented Mallory from doing much and her death forced Mallory to retire. Don't know how they can keep going without her to be honest.

I did enjoy Archer teaching the baby gorilla the sign language for 'phrasing' from the most recent season.

 

[Dazzler9]

Where does one access this Barry that you all speak of?

It's HBO so only available in Aus via Binge or Foxtel, or the seedy underbelly...

Is Netflix a bit behind the very latest stuff like they do with B99?

I didn't enjoy the space season and obviously something prior to that made me stop watching as well. Kinda jumped the shark. But the latest season I watched was back to them being spies as you say.

 

[Biggie]

Barry you say?

Yep, a year behind. I use a different method that I assure any rights holders or law enforcement officers is totally legal to watch the latest stuff.

Except as Boyle’s dad in Brooklyn 99 when he’s basically an older Boyle.

Please, it's the part he was born to play.

Edit: Soz, you're say8ng he's not slimy in that character, but he kinda is simply by being a Boyle.

I'd like to meet the alien who comes up with Netflix's tags. Peaky Blinders is tagged "Violent - Period Piece - Notable Soundtrack". Who on earth is searching for shows tagged with "notable soundtrack"?

Entourage - there's a Spotify playlist of the tunes playing during that show.

Probably fits the movie we watched last night. Spiderhead with Chris Hemsworth. Soundtrack is more memorable than the movie itself.

That movie is getting absolutely panned.

 

[WCErevival]

That movie is getting absolutely panned.

It honestly felt like a 2 hour average episode of Black Mirror. Not sure why Hemsworth bothered doing it tbh. Unless it was to even out his partners movie that also got panned.

 

[Mr Eagle]

Saw Top Gun: Maverick last night. Surprisingly very watchable.

 

[ashley12]

Top Gun was great.

Only bit I didn't like was the first 15 minutes followed around Maverick and what he had been up to. I think the movie would have been better following around the new characters to start and then have them eventually meet up with old mate Maverick as a big reveal.

If you haven’t already seen it, I highly recommend Mr Inbetween (also on binge).

Probably the best show I have ever seen.

It’s an Australian version on Barry. About a hitman trying to balance his life between his job and his day to day life.
