January 15, 20179 yr Just finished season 2 of The Man in the High Castle. I'm with Dusty! Just magical! Right up there with the best of the best!

The premise is interesting, and the girl is adorable. I can't believe I'm watching a soap opera. I can't believe I'm enjoying it.
February 1, 20179 yr I'm about 25 minutes into Sour Grapes -- an hour and twenty-five minute documentary on wine douches. I have to stop, I'll finish it later. I spent too much time and energy saying "fuck you" to the screen. "Just fuck you."
February 1, 20179 yr It's a pretty good film. The private equity wankstain (doing the shtick about champagne in the limo -- "'86 is the vintage to buy. If you can't afford '86 then buy '02. If you can't afford '02 then drink fuckin' beer") is so spot on that you couldn't honestly design a better caricature. The fact that they all got scammed hard precisely because of their pretentious epicureanism makes it extra delicious.
February 2, 20179 yr Just finished Fortitude available on Amazon Prime. One of those shows that makes you want to watch "just one more episode tonight" so the 12 episodes go by in a flash. Some good frozen tundra fare complete with Stanley Tucci and a wooly mammoth! I'd give it 7 out of 10. Edited February 2, 20179 yr by ironbut

February 2, 20179 yr Oh, yeah, that was great. I stopped watching at exactly the wrong moment. That was all setup. They hinted at what was going to be revealed, but they hadn't gotten around to it yet where I stopped.
February 4, 20179 yr Yup, today's the day! "I've been looking [...for zombie literature...]" "You'll find zombie literature in our lifestyle section, next to the fertility crystals. If you hit witch balls, you've gone too far." "Isn't that always the case?"
February 11, 20179 yr Michael Bolton's Big Sexy Valentine's Day Special -- that was the stupidest most entertaining comedy special I think I've ever seen.
February 15, 20179 yr This is for Mike (hope this reminds you of better times) who saw this tour! Steve Hackett-Genesis Revisted Glorious 1080 BluRay rip!
February 15, 20179 yr Sorry Steveo - I liked way before I realized how good it was.. changing rating to--- FUCKING LIKE!! Thanks of sharing
February 15, 20179 yr I really loved everything about that video. The video editing was so fluid and natural that it never distracted or seemed out of place. And the sound! The Royal Albert Hall just embraced the performance with just the right bit of reverb and warmth. And whoever did the mix/mastering did an awesome job! Maybe the bass was a little "one note-ish" but it was forward and loud just like most live performances. I'm sure they could have hyped the bass with a heavy DI (direct injection as opposed to the microphone feed from the amps) but that almost always makes the bass sound unnaturally tight and not at all what the audience hears. Of course, I would have loved to see Pete and Tony Banks up there but that would be another concert.
February 16, 20179 yr Someone might have posted this before, but remastered audio, live 1973 performance
February 16, 20179 yr Yup, that's a classic concert film! I love that early tv clip of Musical Box too. I'm always shocked at how young everybody looks but the energy is out of this world! I might sound like my parents but "I don't think I was ever that young!"
February 19, 20179 yr Travelers on Netlix. Binged the first 8 episodes. It's interesting, and sometimes intense. Some weaknesses in the writing, but not a bad way to blow half a day.
