Netflix much hyped - Something Bad is Going to Happen.

A young couple, head to the grooms creepy and isolated family home, as part of the grooms family tradition, to spend time with his strange family, a few days before the wedding.

The bride to be ( the very lovely Camilla Morrene ) starts to suffer from a sense of foreboding and premonitions, that " something bad is going to happen "

I`ve no idea why it`s getting so much hype, as it`s not remotely scary, feels like it`s made for tv and just doesn`t hold your attention, to the point of being dull.

Avoid.

I quite enjoyed it, but weirdly, it started off really, really well and then changed direction and became a bit by numbers by the end.

All a bit melodramatic as the plot wore on.

Watching Tetris, black comedy / drama film on the race to get licensing rights for the video game from Soviet Russia, starring Taron Egerton & Toby Jones, stellar performance by Roger Allam in a fat suit as Rupert Maxwell.

I agree, it was all going well until they got to the groom to be parents house and then it just became dull and cliched.

The critics have generally been a lot kinder to it, than the public.

No, had a quick look it's not really on the same subject even though video/arcade games are central to the theme of both films but if it pops up on a streaming platform I'm subscribed to I'll maybe give it a go.

I remember loving King of Kong when I watched it years ago, Billy Mitchell was a proper panto villain which isn't something I was expecting in a doc about arcade games.

Loved King of Kong! One of my faves.

Also really enjoyed ‘Beyond the Mat’ from about that time. A behind the scenes doc about pro and amateur wrestling.

I’ve heard tale of this which I really fancy…

I’m surprised how much the story stuck with me. It must be 20 years since I saw it. The hapless Steve Wiebe, the evil Billy Mitchell and his incredible hair and hot sauce!
I think this was the film that made me think that the subject matter of a good documentary is meaningless. A ripping yarn is still a ripping yarn!

Yeah its such a low budget documentry but so much research into it and all the major players contributed. Must be 15 years since I last saw it but stuck with me

The GLW is watching Love and Marriage on Amazon Prime.

It's typical twee British nonsense, but the whole thing is set in Coventry. Lots of outside shots of the city.

Makes Coventry look quite nice.

I'm in our dining room watching my new favourite thing on our projector. On ITVX there is something called Space Live, which is a live feed of earth from a satellite. Been watching for two hours. Fascinating.

Very impressed with episode two of SNL UK. The cast are fantastic, the sketches all worked, it looks great, it sounds great, they are far from half-arsing it; it feels very definitively and uniquely British. I'm excited for next week's!

There's a shit ton of stuff on the NASA website if you like this kind of stuff and I think they have a streaming app as well. Potentially the Artemis launch this week as well.

You could tell they were more relaxed this week. Nerves must have been off the scale last week since the entire cast is very inexperienced and they had a huge amount of press attention.

The pub one and the time sketch were highlights for me, and weekend update of course.
