    We've watched that a couple times and have always liked it.

    I decided to start the "Game of Thrones" series through Netflix. We liked "Homeland", but they don't seem to want to put the last season out on DVD. So I thought we'd give Game of Thrones a try.
    Yuck. Watched it for about half an hour and decided to send the 2 discs back. Anyone out there actually like it?

    I read the books and loved them. I watched the series and liked it. I'm enjoying the new season a bit more though as the story line has now gone beyond the last published book in the series. Not knowing what twists and turns to expect makes it better.

    I like Game of Thrones. It's good Hollywood escapism, well produced. Decent plot that keeps you guessing. I think you have you have to be a scifi/fantasy fan. At least for me I've found that you have to watch two or three of those longer series before you get to know the characters and get into the plot.

    I liked the series, Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt. It's a sitcom series from Netflix streaming. Basically mindless positive entertainment and at least better than any of the comedies on broadcast TV.

    We watched Where to Invade Next. It was much as expected. The most notable feature to me was what bad shape Michael Moore is in. He is not aging well.

    I watched Stranger by the Lake last night, a French film. The librarian warned me that it had lots of nudity. Gosh, I guess! There was lots of sex between men.

    It took place at a gay cruising place in France, a lake front, and it showed the social dynamic of that place. A murder provided the drama.

    It wasnt great, but it was interesting and I havent figured out what the last scene means.This is an art film, not a traditional thriller.
