    If you like movies, check out The Story of Film: An Odyssey. It made me appreciate things in film that I never paid attention to before. Plus the narrator's voice is awesome.

    Very sorry. I watched it there a few months ago, they must have dropped it since then. Great doc if you get the chance to see it.

    Netlix is good for doing that. I spend more time adding stuff to my que than watching only to have it drop off by the time the mood strikes me to watch it. Funny I dropped directv because I didn't watch it, now I have Netflix and Prime and almost never watch them, I am always watching "free" stuff on Youboob when I watch anything. Kind of fun finding b horror movies that I saw at the drive in when I was a kid.

    Just watched part of a Godzilla marathon....check out Godzilla vs. Monster zero. Classic chessey sci fi movie. It has everything your looking for in a 60s Japaneese sci fi flick.

    Check out "WWII from Space." It's a well done documentary about WWII (obviously), but gives a perspective from space (orbit around Earth). I learned quite a bit from watching this.

    It's available for Netflix streaming.
    No excuses!

    Strong, that was very good, I too learned a lot of stuff that I did not know.

    BTW the 30 for 30 "The16th man" was one of the most incredible stories that I have ever seen!

    Try an episode of Archer. Rapid-fire, silly, smart, crude, dozens of funny historical and cultural references, weird characters. Mashes up different decades, vintage TV, cartoons, and corporate culture. Sorta like if Seth McFarlane wrote a James Bond series.

    Tickles my funnybone.

    Edit: Forgot to warn you that it's animated. I poo-pooed it because of that when my son watched it. But when I actually watched an episode, I was hooked. The focus is on the witty writing, so the animation doesn't really matter much; but the realism of the backgrounds is pretty amazing to me.

    Not an action movie, but a very moving drama with some comedy relief parts as well. Check out this great sleeper "Ode to my Father." Korean flick with English subtitles.

    If you like a good murder/mystery drama, checkout "The Killing". All 4 seasons are good; if you're not hooked after the first couple of episodes, then you don't like it.

    Tonight we will be watching the last episode of Bloodline. ( first season, no others yet). We've watched the Killing, HOC and many more just can't remember.
    I do want to watch the Last Kingdom and another new one about some Serial Killer.

    I believe I am nearly caught up to present day on the documentary series, "Making a Murderer". One of the most compelling, dumbfounding, riveting things I've ever seen.

    Grisham/Doctorow/Capote couldn't come close to matching the drama or characters of this real life saga.

    Watch this! But you should be prepared to invest, I dunno, 10 to 15 hours with as few breaks as possible. Incredibly binge-inducing and possibly not completely resolved.

    I'm almost finished watching this series. Jaw dropping is a vast understatement!

    I have to wonder if the Feds will step in at some point to examine this case.
