My Netflix weekend Viewing
MONTY PYTHON & THE HOLY GRAIL
King Arthur is looking to find men to be knights of the round table, then he gets a quest from God to go and search for the holy grail which brings with it funny as hell results. "What's it do nibble your bum?" - "and there was much rejoicing"
I proper love this classic and Im sure everyone else does too
Lego Ninjargo: Masters Of Spinjitzu
Kai as grew up dreaming of becoming a blacksmith like his father but that was before skeleton warriors ransacked his village and abducted his sister. So he learns to become a ninja and joins 3 other ninjas to save the day.
Surprisingly it was a very well thought out CGI adventure for kids that was very imaginative. There was a part where a shadow warrior was kicking a ninja's arse. So another ninja stood where the light would make a shadow on the wall and fought him like that. I really enjoyed it when I wasn't expecting much.
After Porn Ends
A documentary that talks to ex porn stars and they discuss what happened to them after porn. If they could get a normal job or not.
It was so so, I wasn't expecting full on hardcore porn but I was expecting a bit more in depth, they spoke about how they got into porn and how much they got paid. Then the reasons they left. It was a bit shallow and didn't go into anything we didn't already know, there was a woman on there called Shelley Lubben who after looking at her filmography had no right being on it. She starred in 3 films.
Pingu - Season 1
We all know what Pingu is and for those who don't its about a family of plastesine penguins. There is the mam and dad, Pingu the child penguin and his baby sister Pinga. The episodes last for about 10 mins each and it's the adventures of Pingu being naughty.
I don't know why I still like these after all these yrs. The language is foreign but you still understand what's going on. It is also very funny. It's even better to watch with kids. I don't mind admitting I watch kids stuff.
Drop Dead Fred.
When Phoebe Cates was a kid, she had an imaginary friend called Drop Dead Fred played brilliantly by Rik Mayall who only she could see. Now she is 30 and unhappy that she has found her husband is cheating on her. Hence Rik Mayall comes back to help her get him back.
Rik Mayall is the stand out character here and causes all sort of trouble like smearing dog turd on a freshly cleaned carpet, making Cates throw food all over a restraunt and sinking a ship. He also meets his other imaginary friends which is very funny.
The War Of The Worlds (1953)
Aliens have decided to land on Earth and take over by causiing chaos and destruction and it's upto the towns people to try and survive.
A very good piece of sci fi that was better than the remake and it was very well thought out and didn't turn into a CGI fest - it was also very talky which didn't bother me. I also like the way there was not a kid screaming all the way through it. With the remake I wanted to slap her and say shut the **** up
