Good choice, the British version is brilliant. The American adaptation doesn’t capture the same atmosphere.

The 2025 dark comedy movie Bugonia.
BUGONIA – Official Trailer [HD] – Only in Theaters October 24:
I Went Bald to See Bugonia….But was it worth it? Spoiler Free Review:
My Thoughts
This is probably the first movie that I have seen by this director.The trailer for this movie made it clear that it was probably going to be a bit weird / unusual.
Even the name is unusual.
So I was curious to possibly see it one day.
I just saw it.
It is one of those movies that leaves you not exactly sure how you feel about it.
Or how you would rate it.
It has a twist, and it is creative and odd.
The pace was faster than I expected.
Too fast in the beginning, in my opinion.
I think that it is a movie worth seeing at least once.
Especially if you want to see something different, weird, creative, et cetera.
There was some good acting by Jesse Plemons and Emma Stone.
And Alicia Silverstone is like you have never seen her before.
Unfortunately, most people will probably never hear about or see this movie.
Especially the people who may like it the most.
I am curious what that crowd would think about this movie’s twist if they were to ever see it.
I would possibly rate it a 3.5 – 4 out of 5.
Stranger Things...I can't get past the 1st season. I think I left off on episode 3. Should I give it another try? I just needed something with a little more edge, a little more "adult", or does it get better as it progresses?Final season starting any day now
"It" the original, was only 2 episodes long IIRC, so the childhood and adult parts were pretty quickly established. But I know they can't be compared in that way, though.

I liked season 1 2 3, less so 4 and so far less so 5. (not sure why -- some childhood memory or nostalgia...
The American Revolution (Ken Burns) six 2 hour episodes on PBS (Public Broadcasting Service US). Deeper insights than what you learned elementary school & high school.
Zootopia 2, Stranger Things disappointed me from the start, losers in the Session 1 and losers in the Season 5, after everything that happened to them, seriously?!
His documentary on baseball was pretty amazing, IMO.The American Revolution (Ken Burns) six 2 hour episodes on PBS (Public Broadcasting Service US). Deeper insights than what you learned elementary school & high school.
Right now I'm almost through The Last Dance series, about Michael Jordan and the Chicago Bulls. It's been interesting to hear some of the back stories as well as to see the incredible footage of one of, if not the best basketball players of all time. Along with those who surrounded him to help him, become one of the best.
Jordan is the G.O.A.T, always will be. People say LeBron or Kobe or Shaq but no they do not come close to his greatness!
No one will come close to Jordan in the next 100 years I'm sure, professional sports is just so balanced and competitive. On any given Sunday any team can win.
I've been meaning to give that series a close watch, thanks for reminding me! And yes that Baseball docu was amazing,will have to give it another view soon.

The Anime That Vanished Off The Face Of The Earth (The Saga of Tanya the Evil):
My Thoughts
I watched this anime thanks to my brother GC and Gigguk.Anime in 2017 | Part 1:
It was an easy watch that I finished in one weekend, which is an almost record-breaking speed for me.
This anime has an interesting twist on reincarnation, God vs a stubborn man, and a world war with magic.
There were some cool action scenes of early world war combat. The technology included flying mages.
They were shooting old style guns infused with their magic. The magic produced an explosive effect.
The aerial combat was unique and the highlights of this show, and the use of military tactics & strategies.
I am curious what will happen in the next season, and I would recommend watching this show.
I would give this show a 3.5 – 4 out of 5.
This Netflix serie hit me hard. It is one year's anniversary of my mom's death. I can definitely relate. I am nothing, I have nothing, no one. 
What Is It?
The 2023 adult animation TV show Scavengers Reign.
Scavengers Reign | Official Teaser | Max:
Why Scavengers Reign Is Must-Watch Sci-Fi:
My Thoughts
This was one of the best animated TV shows that I saw in 2024.
I watched it on Netflix, I think.
It was an easy watch that I binge-watched.
This might be considered an animated science fiction masterpiece or classic one day.
The opening credits were relaxing and introspective, and I listened to it before each episode.
It is a shame that most people will never hear about or see this animated TV show.
According to Wikipedia, this show was canceled after only one season.
Perhaps that is a good thing, because it was good, and ended well enough.
They possibly would have messed it up if it continued.
It is still a shame, because it is a good show.
HBO had a gem and did not realize it, I guess.
It is a weird science fiction show that really feels like it is on an alien planet.
It is a survival type show that also shows how nature, life, and death can be.
While also exploring various themes in a quiet, intellectual, emotional, and introspective way.
I recommend that people watch this show.
It reminded me of the animated short film Scavengers:
Scavengers:
Which was also by Joseph Bennett and Charles Huettner, and it was based on that short film.
Which my brother GC and I saw years ago back during Toonami on Adult Swim on Cartoon Network.
I am glad that they got to make it into a TV show.
They did a good job, and they deserve more work.
I would rate it a 4 or 4.5 out of 5.
What Is It?
The 2022 religious horror short film Portrait Of God.
Portrait Of God:
Portrait of God (Short Horror Film):
My Thoughts
Surprisingly, YouTube recommended this short film to me.I think they did a pretty good job.
I do wish that it was longer.
And I wish that the entity would have looked a bit better, and moved a bit better.
With more use of practical effects.
I can see this idea being expanded.
Into a short virtual reality (VR) and / or augmented reality (AR) experience or video game.

One of the best Brit TV series
If you’re a fan of science fiction inspired by events that some believe to be real —but are never officially acknowledged by the government— Stranger Things has plenty of that. The series combines secret experiments with children, psychic powers, and portals to other dimensions, elements very similar to those shown in the documentary about the Montauk Project (Christopher Garetano). It’s not a literal adaptation, but it does play with that conspiratorial imagery and turns it into an ’80s-style story that blurs the line between the possible and the fantastic.

Killing Eve Season 2 Thoughts (Watch this show right now!):
My Thoughts
Killing Eve was one of my favorite TV shows that I watched last year.I started watching it on Netflix when my brother CC was visiting.
I almost binge-watched it by watching at least one episode a day, and several on some days.
I probably did not like this season as much as season 1, but I still liked it.
This is probably my second favorite of the seasons.
I definitely recommend watching this show.
Re watching Troll tonight, so I can watch Troll 2 tomorrow night
