Ok so I'm pretty far into iron Fist from this weekend. It ain't that bad at all honestly.

Re: What's good to watch on Netflix
I don't even know how the main character is a douche or anything. He has said only nice things to everyone.
Making me question people's judgement."It may well be that we spectators, who are not divinely gifted as athletes, are the only ones able to truly see, articulate and animate the experience of the gift we are denied. And that those who receive and act out the gift of athletic genius must, perforce, be blind and dumb about it -- and not because blindness and dumbness are the price of the gift, but because they are its essence." - David Foster Wallace

I know it shouldn't bother me but armchair critics dive me ****ing insane. Oh well.

Re: What's good to watch on Netflix
Yeah, but 19% on RottenTomatoes with even the "fresh" reviews as lukewarm makes me ponder. It's not like professional reviewers have been too hard on the superhero genre-and many of them grew up as fans.Comment

Re: What's good to watch on Netflix
We aren't talking rape or systematic racism which seemed to play a role in Jessica Jones and Luke Cage.
This is a show is about distrust between a bunch of rich people. It's easy for me to see how many might be disappointed because it lacks the grit of the others. But it's still an interesting show and I like the main character.
I do think there's a bit of logic failure especially from one character that seems more interested in finding out how badly things can go instead of just ending things as soon as possible.
It's very Adam West Batman camp with villains walking away to a 5 minute timer of doom."It may well be that we spectators, who are not divinely gifted as athletes, are the only ones able to truly see, articulate and animate the experience of the gift we are denied.

Re: What's good to watch on Netflix

As for Iron Fist I'm 4 episodes in and I'm am enjoying the hell out of it which in the end is all I care about. My enjoyment.Comment

Re: What's good to watch on Netflix
Chappelle's new comedy special The Age of Spin at the Palladium in Hollywood is excellent. Some of his best material yet and he looks like he's doing real good, too. It's certainly a little bit different (not quite as slapstick as For What It's Worth), but has all the elements of what makes him one of the best comics ever.Chicago Cubs | Chicago Bulls | Green Bay Packers | Michigan WolverinesComment

Not my idea of a movie or show, but it will influence whether I see it or not. Of course some times I disagree with them.Comment

Yeah, I just watched it, you would expect the material to fairly different from before given what he's seen in going from a 30 year old to a 42 year old, but as you say, it is stylistically a quintessential Dave Chappelle performance. I'm going to watch the second show tomorrow.Jordan Mychal Lemos

Do this today: Instead of $%*#!@& on a game you're not going to play or movie you're not going to watch, say something good about a piece of media you're excited about.
Do the same thing tomorrow. And the next. Now do it forever.Comment

Re: What's good to watch on Netflix
Just got done with his second new show, Deep in the Heart of Texas, and I think you'll find it more similar to his older slapstick material. Let's just say he riffs about a word that's 5 letters and ends in U-S-S-Y...for what seemed like 20 minutes. lol. More great stuff. Dave Chappelle is back.Jordan Mychal Lemos

You can actually catch shows like the Texas one on YouTube. I'm talking about recent shows within in the last 2-3 years.
I heard the story about his Kid crying in school during his NY Performance and it's still just as funny. Both of these 2 were hilarious and I can't wait for the next one to come out.
For those interested, there's also a documentary on Netflix about AAU called "At All Costs". Definitely worth a watch as it follows one of the top programs in the country and also talks about the reality of what AAU Ball is nowadays.#RespectTheCultureComment
