Whatcha watching?

This is a fun series, if a bit preachy. Brie Larson is excellent in her role and the science references are more accurate than expected for a TV show.

Went to see The Holdovers last night. It is much better than the trailers imply.
This is the best movie I've seen in years. Nothing took me out of the story. One of the best I've ever seen. I wasn't expecting it. The characters were real and relatable. The story was real and heartwarming and unpredictable with a small cast of perfectly established characters. My only fear as the story went on was that the ending would suck, and it didnt. Go see this movie. It's delightful. It's not sappy or pretentious. It's not full of itself or up its own ass like so many Oscar bait movies. It was great. You should see it. I cried at least twice. Like a baby. Like a fat, hungry baby. It was amazing.
A couple of my friends have given similar reviews, so we will definitely see it at some point.

It came it 6 in the 90's.
Ton Loc and Rob Schneider caught my attention so I gave it a try. It was campy, actiony, and kinda funny. What it was was mindless entertainment which I'm ok with from time to time.

I stayed home for the holiday and binged Battle Bots. As a former tech geek it was somewhat exciting to see interest in systems engineering to the Nth degree is still alive and flourishing in the form of contests based on primitive blunt force trauma, for a reward worth essentially it’s weight on a scrapyard scale (and bragging rights :D), does my heart good.
