The Lost City was pretty bad, IMO. Like a 5/10 version of Romancing the Stone (10/10)

Robcop isn't a movie that needed remaking, it's a 80's classic can't be replicated or redone, so memoriable nothing else can compare. 🤷♂️
I have to watch it to judge since I since I saw the original 10s upon 10s of times as a kid because my parents had the black box which included every showing of PPV movies.
He's a donkey, but the show has been enjoyable, if only to learn something about farming.
There should be more Charlie Ireland's in the world.
Yeah, a movie that you watch in the background while reading News on your iPad.
I got to say I never in a million years thought they would have expanded this idea as much as they have done. Several films later and now a TV series, it’s being milked as much as possible. But people must enjoy it, I’ve seen a couple of the films and they are a bit meh to me, pretty much the exact same thing repeated.
Not sure, I’ve still carried on watching it, but, it seems they are putting Joel and Ellie in situations and then killing off characters as they meet them? It seems they want to play in the whole apocalyptic and friends dying aspect? The Ellie in the show is quite different to the game also. Can’t wait till the episode they play golf…. Apparently when they base the show off the second game they’ll drag it out a lot before then lol.
This series must be one you have to watch to get it, as from the description it seems kinda creepish, and not something I would be interested it.I watched Season 1 of this over the weekend. I liked it quite a bit:

He’s a reckless goon for the sake of being a reckless goon, however the show has such wonderful warm characters in the other people it more than makes up for it. And it really does highlight the problems farmers have, and it’s beautifully shot, the wildlife you see is amazing.
I can fully understand why the locals dislike him, they want a quiet village and his shop has probably caused thousands of extra cars every year travelling through it. But the biggest issues are the car park, and traffic control. They really should have let Jeremy build a proper car park and maintain it.

It took me long enough to start, but I’m watching The Walking Dead and I can’t get enough of it.
I'm jealous! I watched all 11 seasons of it and still want more! Numerous spinoffs are coming, hopefully they're as good. Fear the Walking Dead is pretty good too.
Currently binging on Mental, it's a french series available on Netflix, I don't know if it's available on other countries or if it was dubbed, but it's the story of a guy who got interned inside a mental asylum for no reasons (or, that's what he tells himself at least), but it's not the kind of series where everyone is like ****ing crazy and ****, it kinda shows it how it's actually like, how the system doesn't actually treat mental ill people correctly, ect...
I really like how the story is told.
If it is available in your country I would really recommand it.

Oldie but goodie - The West Wing. I am loving it - the characters, the storylines, the hairstyles, just everything about it. Some of the stories are the exact same **** that is happening now.
I will put this in my top 10 favorite shows.

Was able to catch a few episodes of "Yellowstone" this weekend. We are intrigued and now want to watch them all.
Well, I was only able to watch the first episode. Peacock had the rest behind a paywall.
Anime series called "Vinland Saga" one of the best I have ever seen. Actually historically based (well somewhat but nothing really off) on the period of King Sweyn and Canute and the Viking conquest of England told through fictional characters. Engaging story and characters and excellent animation.
finished HOUSE, and loved it.
starting blacklist, not that thrilled with it yet.

Reality shows are still heavily scripted entertainment, and often rely on contrived drama, so not everything should be taken at face value, as it's presented on the show.
Little doubt there are some locals who protest just to protest, but there are valid concerns as well.
I read up a little on the situation, and one alternative not mentioned is to build the car park on the other side of the road, on land Clarkson also owns, but supposedly isn't governed by the stricter character preservation rules.
I don't know how true that is, and such a situation would still present issues with traffic control, and a pedestrian crossing would be a liability concern as well.
The road that fronts his farm shop is one of the two routes from Chadlington village to the larger town of Chipping Norton, presumably where people run their errands and do life stuff.
A 3.6 mile, eight minute drive, according to Google, and not exactly where one would expect a traffic jam. The alternate route adds about 1.4 miles and four minutes, so it's not a huge difference either.
The RV park/campground adjacent to the farm shop isn't exactly a paragon of natural beauty, so a car park next to the shop isn't going to upset the balance of nature to any large degree either.
Those have visited characterize it as an expensive, one-and-done, seen-it lark, but that could be said of any farm shop.
Despite the controversy and rumors stemming from his recent column about the non-practicing royals, he confirmed there will be a third season, so I guess even if it eventually might not air on Prime, so we'll see what happens, or not.
I find it to be an enjoyable show, and shall leave it at that.
Oh I thoroughly enjoy the show, I don't mind Clarkson really. He is certainly highlighting the troubles British Farmers face every day. You do often think is it worth it?
