RE: What program/film/documentary are you watching now?
Finished season 3 of the second Battlestar Gallactica series (the one from earlier this decade, not the one with Lorne Greene from the 1970s). Pretty good so far-certainly watchable. Don't know if I'll find the energy for continuing on with the entirety of the series though.
Mrs. Chickenboy and I are woefully behind some other well-reviewed series. So I ask the 'greater collective wisdom' of this forum the following: "Should we try the Walking Dead or House of Cards next?" Never seen either series and have avoided all substantive discussions of same as well.
What say you all?

I have finally caught up on all six Game of Thrones series. Suffice to say I am hooked [:)] Can't wait for the next one [:)]
The last episode certainly escorted a good many major characters off the planet, didn't it? [8D]

Yes it did. Oh well I still have a few characters I'm rooting for left.

Anyone seen Wonder Woman? My eldest little warspite is keen to see it (big Marvel fan and is pleased there is a heroine for a change) and given, from the trailers, there is a bit of a WWI type story going on I thought I might take her to see it.

Apparently not....
A very good film, thoroughly entertaining and Gal Gadot is perfect for the part.

True. I don't go to movies any more myself. Don't care for crowds, or bedbugs. I just wait for the DVD, usually the Director's cut or something like that.

I must admit I rarely go. The biggest reason is that, sadly, many people just don't know how to behave anymore and consideration for others is just not on their radar. When I do go it will usually be for something special - e.g. Dunkirk next month - and I pick my times. I normally try and get the earliest showing so that it will be less busy.
I was pleasantly surprised therefore when watching WW the other day. I went in the early evening and the cinema was pretty full, but there was no annoying or anti-social behaviour that I heard or saw.

So basically, when it comes to the big battles, he's just guesstimating?

Looks like the new Churchill film is one to wait for too [:(] Reviews are no more than okay.

A new Sky Atlantic production starts tonight - Riviera. Let's hope it lives up to the hype.
