We did, too.  I commented to my husband that for some reason it felt kind of like watching the moon landing.

I watched some movie called "McVeigh" and got mad at it making stuff up throughout the film... Example: Tim planning to kill a black guy (and only stopped from shooting when a car pulled in front of his target). Never happened. The girlfriend was made up, he was a loner with no girlfriend. The movie makes up dialog like it doesn't have a clue (calling a magazine a "clip")... It leaves out important character development points like McVeigh visiting the Waco area during the event. It even has Tim visiting some racist in prison multiple times, but in reality that never happened. I get it, they don't like T.M., but don't make up stuff just to color him as a racist.

3 out of 10 rating from me. I hate movies that just fake stuff for whatever reason.

The TV show Reacher is great.  Far better this actor than Tom Cruise in the two movies made with him to date. 

For those familiar with the Reacher book series, Tom Cruise is not 6'5" as the character in the book, he is at least one foot shorter, and does not measure up as Reacher.
I'm not often one to keep up with a series, but Reacher is one I have been looking forward to watching and await the next installment.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

I have watched Outlander before.  Started watching it from the 1st Season, and once again got engrossed in the story line.   I believe it is truly one of the best time travel, historical fiction productions ever made.

We’ve been watching, and enjoying, Masterpiece Theatre’s “All Creatures Great and Small”.
Really nice break from the cursing, endless killing and uncomfortable sex scenes (yes, Taylor Sheridan - I’m talking to YOU!).

Beyond the Curtain (1960), cold-war inspired tale in East Germany and Berlin (pre-wall).
Quite good.

Just ditched my FIOS television lineup and stayed on their internet connection.

Downgraded my 1G speed to 300mb and haven't suffered any speed loss.  Of course, I only have 1 TV and 1 computer to run.  Paid for 1G for 5 years with the intent to get myself an Xbox to play CALL of DUTY with my sons here locally and in Florida...but never did.  Brought my monthly bill down from $260 to $49 plus taxes and fees...haven't received my first bill yet on the downgrade.

What I did find out immediately however is that it's not only NETFLIX that shoved LGTBQ-LMNOP down our throats.

HULU is just as bad...having just watched 2 seasons of LIONESS and 1 season of THE END OF US!

The alphabet stuff is pervasive. Egregious and unnecessary behaviour of that sort ends a series for me. Let the ratings decide.

Fallen Down a few years ago showed a father that had had enough and wasn't gonna take it anymore. This movie "LOCKED" is in the same vein except it starts good ole Hannibal Lector (Anthony Hopkins) as the person that has "had enough"...

The trailer will give you the gist of the plot... A mostly no-good criminal down on his luck decides to steal from a car... The car is enhanced to not allow it with several revisions to make it durn near bullet=proof (escape proof). Good ole Anthony Hopkins has a few chainsaws to grind with criminals... Let the games begin.


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VAaqF55xUHM

Based on a movie from Argentina in 2019 (4X4) .... I don't know if the original is good or not.

This movie has way too much cursing in it... but I think most of us that want to see a criminal get his butt handed to him will enjoy it. Yep, it gets a little sadistic... but is that the only way to get through to some criminals? Yes, some of the concepts are far fetched (you can hear banging on car windows)...

7/10 from me... I like a good revenge movie ... YMMV of course.

Last night:
Original "Outer Limits", episode entitled "The Inheritors, Pt. 2".
With a young Robert Duvall in the lead role.

Tonight:
An episode from The "Twilight Zone", season 2.

Both in black-and-white (and today viewable with a screen quality you never could get back in the early 60's on a b&w tv...)
