Hush is really good. Haven't seen The Ritual yet, but my friend just recommended it to me last week. Hoping to watch it soon.

Adding to the Hush praise. One of my favorite movies I saw last year.
A NEW GAME BEGINS
And here's the trailer for Bird Box

Actually, I just watched Hush last weekend. Matt was touting it so much around here, that I had to give it a shot. I really enjoyed it and thought it was one of the better home invasion films I've seen in recent years. Mike Flanagan is a pretty reliable director.
On a side note, I also learned that Flanagan is married to Kate Siegel, who played the main character in Hush and also co-wrote the film. She's been in a bunch of his films, but I had no idea they were married.

Caught Hush last night. Cool premise and a pretty fun watch. I like how the movie got right down to business in like the first 5 minutes. A couple eye rolling moments no doubt, but totally worth it. Plus a Hodges Trilogy Easter egg for the win.Actually, I just watched Hush last weekend. Matt was touting it so much around here, that I had to give it a shot.

Kate Siegel was good; thought she was good as one of the Haunted Hotties on the Hill House show too. Way to go mr Flanagan
Looks good. Solid cast too
"The Terrifier" is an excellent old school type of slasher movie. If you liked those 80s movies and don't mind a lot of graphic violence, it is worth a watch. Another clown that is not to be messed with.
Caught The Ritual last night. Was checking my phone less than 30 minutes in. Sometimes I think we get spoiled by King; we just take it for granted that we’ll care about his characters and thus their particular demises. Holy hell did I not care about any of the characters in this movie except maybe the main guy. That being said, Norway and Sweden look like amazing places I need to visit.
Just finished Season 1 of American Vandal. I really enjoyed it. At times, I could almost believe that it was a real documentary, despite the obviously juvenile subject matter.
I'll probably start watching season 2 tonight.
Hearts are tough, she said, most times hearts don't break, and I'm sure that's right . . . but what about then? What about who we were then? What about hearts in Atlantis?
Def not as good as the first season but worth the watch. Plus it has one of the all time greatest nicknames for a character ever imo
Any one here watch Big Mouth?
I just read a bunch of people who raved about it, so this is interesting. I even moved it to the top of my to-watch list.
Was it at least suspenseful...or have any good qualities?
A NEW GAME BEGINS
Definitely good qualities; the setting is great, main dude is interesting enough to keep you watching but I wouldn’t call it suspenseful. A couple of decent moments throughout but it just kind of falls flat for me. Not memorableI just read a bunch of people who raved about it, so this is interesting.

Like using margarine instead of butter in a recipe. All the ingredients are there but it could be better
Tad off topic because I can't find the thread or one doesn't exist, but I really enjoyed Homecoming on Amazon Prime. Didn't really care so much for the 2nd season of Lore.

An Amazon show discussion in the Netflix thread? Blasphemy!! I do want to watch that show, and many other Amazon shows, but I don't have Prime yet.
I think you're looking for the TV show thread in the Fedic Station. Either the General TV Discussion thread or the What are you watching right now thread.

I agree it didn't quite live up to the first season, but still pretty good. I did like the ending a little bit better. It's kinda fun how they keep coming up with new leads and clues every episode so it's nearly impossible to guess who really did it.Def not as good as the first season but worth the watch.

Pretty sure Netflix cancelled this show; I definitely thought S2 was at least good enough to warrant a S3...especially since there are so few good comedies right now. Or at least let them go full meta and have them do a few bonus eps to investigate why they’re not getting a 3rd seasonI agree it didn't quite live up to the first season, but still pretty good.

I read that they cancelled it, but producers intend to shop the program to other venues. Both seasons are at 98% on Rotten tomatoes so I have no idea why they cancelled it if it was so well received.Pretty sure Netflix cancelled this show; I definitely thought S2 was at least good enough to warrant a S3...especially since there are so few good comedies right now.

Netflix is cancelling shows it doesn't produce in order to promote their own content. So it may not have been a matter of not being popular.

You’re absolutely right and I think this is a terrible strategy. We’re clearly past the early adopter phase of converts from cords to streaming so I don’t see the competitive advantage of owning your content at this point. People converting now will prob want quality and quantity and could care less about proprietary. Best I can figure is they’re streamlining a bit before Disney takes a real swipe at their market share next year. Yada yada yada i want more VandalNetflix is cancelling shows it doesn't produce in order to promote their own content. So it may not have been a matter of not being popular.

Did Stranger Things Season 3 never come about? Or did I sleep through it?
