Weekly "What are you watching?" thread

What have you plebs been watching? How was it? Tell us!

NO ANIME

For me:

Police Story (1985) - Simple name for one of the best movies I've ever seen. Written and directed by the martial arts kino GOAT, Jackie Chan. All the stunts are practical and Jackie ran a fricking excruciating regime to produce this kino. Every action movie today owes its existence to this film. I had always heard about this movie but never bothered with it until now, and I'm kicking myself for waiting so long. You want a fun movie with real action and funny ching chongs? Go watch this right now. Top kino

The Holdovers (2023) - Just when you thought they don't make movies like this anymore, they made one. A certified Christmas classic. Think John Hughes meets Dead Poets Society (1989) meets Manchester By the Sea (2016). If you need a comfy Christmas movie, watch this one

Millennium Actress (2001) - kinda overrated, but a decent watch

Cop Land (1997) - Might be the only movie with Stalone and De Niro. Bunch of mobbed up cops own a town in NJ and shit starts to go down. Honestly not that good, but like half of The Sopranos cast is in it, plus Ray Liota and De Niro.

Fargo Season 5 - banger

Slow Horses - If you like modern comfy bong spy thrillers, watch this. Budget is insane and it's just brits doing what they do best. Gary Oldman plays a grimy disgusting ex-Cold War spy and it's everything

Currently watching a short series called The Terror about a (real) arctic expedition that disappeared in the 1800s. Horror stuff, adds supernatural elements.

Pretty good. Not earth-shaking? But interesting. Got some good actors and high production value.

It's earth-shaking.

Never could do season 2, but season 1 is better than nearly every season of Fargo.

tbf I haven't finished it yet. I'm like six episodes in.

I figured I wouldn't be watching season 2 because its set in a japanese american internment camp and has george takei so I figure it's probably terrible and preachy
