David McK (3369 KP) rated Twisted Metal - season 1 in TV
May 4, 2024 (Updated May 4, 2024)
I've never played it.
It does seem to be a strange choice for an action-adventure comedy series, but I actually found this to work quite well, largely based in the chemistry of the co-leads (Mackie as the 'milkman' John Doe, hired to deliver a package cross country and encountering Beatriz's Quiet along the way) and the antagonist played by Thomas Haden-Church.
Oh, and never forgetting the murderous clown Sweet Tooth who steals pretty much every scene he is in ...
David McK (3369 KP) rated Fight Club (1999) in Movies

That's virtually all my beforehand knowledge of this movie, which it's only taken me (roughly) 25 years to get around to watching.
And I wish I hadn't bothered: that's slightly over 2 hours of my life (that felt like 25+ years) that I'll never get back again ...
Bleak, depressing, and with an incredibly obvious 'twist' telegraphed virtually from the get-go, I found little to recommend in this, and even less to enjoy.
One to avoid.
(And at least I can now say I've seen it ...)

David McK (3369 KP) rated Alien: Romulus (2024) in Movies
Aug 17, 2024 (Updated Aug 17, 2024)
So between the two best entries in the franchise, in other words.
I found it also heavily dependant upon those movies, with several call-backs and references made to those (and even to the much-maligned 'Alien; Resurrection' and to 'Prometheus'); almost a case of 'pick the best bits and mash them together' in several parts.
Enjoyable enough, yes, but - to me - it doesn't reach the heights of the earlier entries.
