I've got most of the Studio Ghibli stuff too, but there's no car racing or alien invasions. Lots of flying tho'.

We watch a fair bit of Ghibli too. I generally love it. Most recent was The Boy And The Heron. Which was pretty decent.

I've got it on 4k Blu-ray for the wife for Christmas, not got round to watching it yet.

DO NOT EVER WATCH Grave of the fireflies. It will leave you scared for life.

I am pretty sure you could get one for two grand back in the day. Now more like ten times that.

Are you going to carry on and watch MF Ghost afterwards?

I hadn't heard of that but I'll look it up when I finish Initial D. If it's good until the end. I think I'm on about episode 16 of series 1 and I think there are several series.

Essentially it's the follow on series. Same author, 20-ish years later.

Great actors in a good story. Kinda simple, but it worked.

MobLand on Paramount - not a bad show with some big names but FFS, wish they'd drop the shit Irish accent.

Watched 'Queer' last night with Daniel Craig. Never Never Never Never Never again. Don't watch.

Lol, my Son was just round and that is verbatim of what he said!

Enjoyed the first 3 episodes of The Feud and am really enjoying Protection on ITVx.

Katherine Kelly is from Barnsley

White Lotus 3 was just as good as the first two. Really excellent characters.

New Black Mirror series is now on the go - so far, so brilliant, as ever.
Nice to have good new things landing again after a load of recent meh.

Andor season 2 next week.

The one and only genuinely good Star Wars TV show* and there won't be any more seasons I don't think it's a spoiler to say the main character won't last past season 2

*I'd probably go so far as to say it's the best thing Star Wars has done in the 21st century. The only thing which comes close IMO is the film of the same guy. The Mandalorian is decent, everything else is a Toy Advert

Last week I visited the Valencia 'city of arts and sciences', which is a bunch of proper space ages buildings, apparently they filmed some of the second series of Android there (along with Dr Who and Tomorrowland).

Agreed. I did really like The Mandalorian too. But Book of Boba Fett was crap until Mando turned up, and I never managed to finish The Acolyte.

Last of Us season two is landing now too - that'll be next - the first season was epic.

Probably just me but I didn't really enjoy the first episode of the new season - gave it a re-watch and that second time, I did.

So stick with it!

Just finished Fool Me Once.

Wasn't sure at once, but it sucked me in.

Lots of twists and turns and side plots.

But you'd never guess the 2 or 3 massive twists in last episode.

8/10

All I'm gonna say about this new series is: Dedra definitely has a strap on.

Where she's holding up the different clothes and smiles for a spit second into the mirror... she almost didn't look like a hardfaced bitch.

Just finished The Feud. Started out good but tailed off and had a dumb ending. 2/5.

The One That Got Away. The extraordinary tale of Franz von Worra. Old B&W film.
