When I find a film that was hugely important to me, or that I just loved, I still buy it on Blu-ray for quality of viewing. One of the last one's I bought was "Nobody", for example, because for my money it's just one of the best action movies to be made in recent years, and maybe one of the best ever. Anyway, I still have an oppo 203 Blu-ray player that is the best quality device I've ever seen, and when I really want the cinematic experience for these movies I'll fire it up and enjoy the best quality my home system can provide, which isn't bad with an 83-inch LG OLED, and a 7.1 surround sound soundbar-based sound system and a video bias lighting system that follows the action with surrounding lighting that matches the scenes. It's glorious! Some of my most treasured films I burned into archival Blu-ray discs to protect it through repeated viewings. Ok for a while there I got pretty stupid about this stuff, mainly because I didn't want to get tied down to streaming. Now, I stream 99.5% of everything we watch with the only exceptions being when I want to watch the Dark Knight or the Matrix or even some newer films like Nobody, one of my very favorites, in the highest quality I can get. Then I still break out the Blu-ray setup and it's a blast. But really I'm basically still keeping the dinosaur alive, and really for no particular reason. The last time I watched anything on Blu-ray was like 3 years ago when we had our local fiber connection out for like 4 days due to a construction accident or something, so we watched some of the Blu-ray collection. But really that's about it any more.

I feel the same way that's why I bought myself a copy of Rocco's Time Master: Revenge of the Sex Witches on Blu-ray, Stunning on my 75 inch Samsung screen!! You should see some of those close up shots! Wow!!!
 
FUBAR is weird, but somehow somewhat entertaining. I have one episode left for season 2. Silly-stupid action show with little action. Arnold can barely even move. They don't even look like punches at all. There are some decent secondary characters.

You know what was fun? Into the Badlands. The storyline was laughable, the characters were almost entirely all just trope-fillers, but the action scenes were really good, the world building was decent, and the aesthetic was very steampunk.

What happened to this show? I think I watched S1 and then lost contact.

It got cancelled after S3, on a cliffhanger, of course. But S2 brought in Nick Frost as the martial arts master Bajie, based on Zhu Bajie, the patron deity of masseuses, hostesses, and prostitutes.

I loved it for the fight scenes and the mystical world-building and the campiness of the dialogue and characters. It was just a ton of fun. I really wish they had continued it.

If you ever wanted to see Abe Lincoln fight Anne Bonny, this is the show for you.
 
I watched the Suits LA (cancelled after 13 episodes) spinoff from Suits. There are some nice looking women: but the show had no heart, a bad/boring story, and was almost painful to watch. The actors deserved a better script.

Fit birds you say? Well then...

In general, legal dramas bore the **** off me, mostly cause they're so predictable, the good always win, the wicked are punished, all is right in the world!!!

I'd rather see it how it really is justice is bought and sold, the rich and immoral thrive and the poor are crushed under foot.
 
Watched American prime evil. Thought it was pretty good.
Currently watching It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia newest season. I think this is the 17th season and it's still one of the funniest shows on TV
