Childhood's End (2015)
It's still in my heart and ears
A wonderful series: fanciful and imaginative, heartwarming and chilling at the same time. The Lark Ascending as a sound back drop is wonderful.
Nomadland (2020)
I don't understand the success
The acting is great. The rest of it is amusing and interesting for people who've never lived on the road. I lived full time in my van and traveled the West for almost 15 years and this movie depicts just a small fraction of the ups and downs and ins and outs of van life. The hardships and challenges of real van life were almost completely ignored, starting with the fact that our heroine enjoyed the luxury of "shore power" or being able to plug into outside electricity all of the time practically. Without, you can't run an AC, excessive heat being one of the most debilitating factors in van life. It's much harder to keep cool than it is to keep warm. Then, being constantly kicked out of parking spots and neighborhoods, the cops banging on your door always in the middle of the night, strange people rocking, kicking, hitting, spitting on, throwing food and paint on, and just generally disturbing the van at all hours. People break in, damage the outside, leave threatening notes, stalk and follow you. I have a big black dog, Bee, my faithful friend and traveling companion always with me. Looking ferocious but actually is a sweetheart, Bee is the perfect guard dog. I traveled and worked around the West as a horse wrangler and guide, chef, caterer, restaurant hostess, Gardener and landscaper, Italian faux finish painter, dog groomer, Executive Assistant, and caregiver to the elderly or ill for almost the entire time I lived in my van. My van life was 100 times more eventful and intense than that depicted in this movie. The only thing I DIDN'T do was go to an RTR. Which I do regret since the first ones, I've heard, were great for sharing DIY solutions. But I tended to avoid people, much less the crowds, so... In any event, they should have come to me; I could have given them a much truer depiction of real van life than this watered down one. .
Defying Gravity (2009)
I'd love to but...
$30 to watch one season of this is simply outrageous. I mean, wouldn't it make sense to make it more affordable and have more people watch it?
Firefly (2002)
It's still not too late!!
We want a sequel! We want a sequel! I keep looking to make sure I haven't missed their inevitable sequel all of these years. Alas, in vain. What is W WRONG with you people?! One of the most engaging series ever.
Yellowstone (2018)
Some inconsistencies and such
Cowboys don't wear Levi's. The double stitches are uncomfortable in the saddle. Only Wranglers and sometimes Lee's as far as denim is concerned.
You don't cinch the back cinch first and you don't not put the end through the cross secure.
Must cowboys don't wear spurs when they're pushing cattle.
You can't breath after bear spray in an enclosed space.
That's all I can think of off the top of my head.
Tales of the City (2019)
I'm sorry
I can't stand it. Maybe because I'm a native and know all of those places and I'm feeling very possessive... I resent the actors invading my childhood spaces and at the same time I adore the actors.. It hurts
Carry on Up the Khyber (1968)
Expensive
The Carry On series should be free with Prime Video!
