    I forget what the movie's name was but there was an Indie Horror flick some years back with that 'dark tunnel/overpass' as a focal point as well. I remember it sucking but the concept was cool. 

     

    This movie...I think I'm burnt out on the A24 thing completely but I'll give it a shot because I loved Ex Machina.

    Absentia?

  2. I'm back on everything again, and at my age, it's dangerous to be overweight/obese. Already dropped about 15 pounds in the past month or so. 

     

    For food:

    • Oats Overnight

    • Huel Black @Commissar SFLUFAN

    • MUD/WTR (coffee replacement)

    • For milk I use Fair Life, which tastes amazing, and has a ridiculous amount of protein for milk

    • Frog Fuel for protein boosts

    Then I make something low carb for dinner

     

    I've also signed up for Lumen. It's actually been really great, because while I do limit what I eat, it's not a diet. It tells me what my macros should be every day, and I have to figure out how to get there. 

     

    I'm tempted to get an Oura, but I don't know how much better it will be than the metrics on my Galaxy Watch. 

     

    For working out, I'm full on Peloton. I've had the bike for a few years and love it. I just recently got their camera, Peloton Guide, that allows you to see yourself while working out. It's not a game changer or anything, but since I paid for it, that's motivation enough to use it. 

     

    For the weights I use Poweblocks. Very highly recommend. 

     

    I'm around 220 now, and the goal is to get as close to 170 as possible by October.

    By all means, please talk about it if & when you do!

    Just got out of it a bit ago. Really liked it. It's more or less what you want it to be. There's no real twists or surprises,  but it doesn't detract from the film in any way. Everything it sets up, is paid off, and really well done. 

     

    It takes a while to get going, but I didn't mind in the slightest... could be because the performances were all really strong, or it could be because what they were doing. Lol. 

     

    One thing you notice from the first shot of the film, that carries throughout, is the shot reveals are set up brilliantly--West does a fantastic job at pulling your attention to one location, and then letting it expand through the shot. 

     

    Also...

    Spoiler

    I REALLY hope the trailer after the end credits is a real movie. It looks absolutely bonkers. In all the best ways it can without Nic Cage being in it. :lol:

  4. Just what the title says. 14 films, all regularly priced at $14.99, on sale for $19.99 total. That's insane. The only sale I've seen come remotely close to that is when the F13 movies go on sale for $12.99 on Friday the 13th. But that's F13... against Hitchcock. Some of them are in 4k, too. 

     

    Not sure how long the sale will last. Usually it's until next Monday night, but a sale this good might be a day only sale.

    Thank you sir! I can confidently say this is easily my favorite show of all time. With the episode where Uhtred comes back to meet sick Alfred as one of my favorite television episodes of all time. 
     

    I know this deviated a bunch from the books but is this the natural end point in the books? I had a heard there’s a huge time jump towards the end of the series where it becomes a lot more about Uhtreds kids. Is that where we’re at leading into he movie or did they kinda go their own way and it’s all jumbled up and different now?

     

    They blended. And kept Uhtred mostly young. His son Osbert is huge in the later books. It seems like Aethelstan took his place a bit. Makes me a bit sad, but I get it, especially with what can be derived to happen in the upcoming movie if you look into actual history.
