@Devindra@jeffcannata@davechensky ‘Away’ was surprisingly good for a Netflix original. It reminds me of when they tried to be the next HBO instead of the “appeal to the masses with long tail bullshit” they’re doing now. #slashtag
@slashfilmcast The "Dirty Gold" episode of season 2 of Dirty Money on Netflix could easily be a standalone movie. The access the documentary crew got to people directly involved on all sides of a multi-billion $ money laundering schemes is incredible. #slashtag
@jeffcannata#slashtag blown away how much I enjoyed The Way Back with Ben Affleck on HBO Max. Def shed a tear or three, nothing you haven’t seen before but really well done.
Not sure if You all have already watched Criminal: United Kingdom on Netflix but I think it is fantastic. Cleverly written and very well acted. #slashtag
@jeffcannata Check out The Overnighters (same director as Boys State) from 2014. One of my faves from that year and equally as cinematic to my recollection. Been meaning to rewatch. #slashtag
#slashtag If you have't seen "One Cut of the Dead" yet, you must. Please do me a favor though. 1) Avoid reading anything about it before seeing it. 2) If the first 30 minutes or so isn't doing it for you, stick with it. It's worth it.
@slashfilmcast Emma. Great score and Ana Taylor-Joy is fantastic. Love Life (HBO Max) some surprising and moving moments from supporting roles; Animal Kingdom (Prime) crime drama, increasingly over-the-top heists, popcorn escapism with a great cast and performances. #slashtag
@slashfilmcast@jeffcannata Yucatán food is its own wonderful thing. A couple of Netflix episodes show it quite well: The "Acid" episode from Salt, Fat, Acid, Heat and the "Rosalía Chay Chuc" episode from Chef's Table BBQ. #slashtag
Paul (2011) Good wholesome travel adventure with Simon Pegg and Seth Rogen as the amazingly cgi'd alien. The movie is shot like an Oscar nominated drama. Beautiful natural and witty dialogue. Well edited. I Google "best 2011 movies", Paul showed up #slashtagpic.twitter.com/1FKzsP3itp
#slashtag@jeffcannata@davechensky@Devindra have any of you watched The Painter and the Thief on @hulu? In a time of much great documentary content streaming, this one is a must see. So many amazing moments that will stick with me for a long time.
@slashfilmcast In the spirit of more innocent times (a la Bill & Ted) this old YouTube clip was a delight to rediscover. From a time when the internet still seemed like a good idea, and felt full of creative potential #slashtagyoutu.be/ZujLW2-d3Jo
#slashtag I think it will be a bright moment to hear @jeffcannata 's take on High School Musical The Musical The Series' take on the high school theater community. #HSMTMTS
@slashfilmcast#slashtag 1) Fahrenheit 11/9 a sobering look at the circumstances that helped Trump get elected. 2) For something more breezy & lighthearted - Samurai Gourmet on Netflix. Food porn wrapped in a simple story about a retiree rediscovering the simple joys of food.
@jeffcannata@slashfilmcast have you watched the he-man documentary on @netflix The Power of Grayskull? Fascinating look at developing mythology after the fact and fans reimagining and continuing the legacy for future generations #slashtag
@davechensky@jeffcannata@Devindra I know some of you did not care for High Score on Netflix. May I recommend the YouTube channel @GamingHistorian. Well-written, entertaining and informative series about landmark moments and titles in video game history. #SlashTag
Also, @jeffcannata – #slashtag have you heard of "Alone" on History Channel? Might be a good Eco-Challenge alternative. It's not so much a "race", but a survival challenge with TRAINED wilderness professionals. Their seventh season just finished airing.
@jeffcannata@davechensky@Devindra#slashtag – I logged onto Twitter for this sole purpose... please watch/review "The Vow" on HBO Max. Fascinating! This is an investigative docu-series exploring the self-improvement "cult" called NXIVM.
@jeffcannata I too was disappointed by The World's Toughest race and stopped after 1 episode. Then I found The Barkley Marathons: The Race That Eats It's Young on Amazon Prime. An indie doc that more people need to watch. Inspiring, humorous, and real. #slashtag@barkleymovie
@jeffcannata If you get a chance, check out You Cannot Kill David Arquette, decent watch that should appeal to that closeted wrestling fan inside you #slashtag
Gotta say @jeffcannata on Ted Lasso was spot on. Ignore the first episodes odd pacing, the rest are great and it’s truly refreshing to have a not shit character to root for! #slashtag
Has anyone jumped into the The Tales of Arcadia animated series that starts with Trollhunters? My son and I just finished season 1 and I think the series is amazing. It starts decently, kind of like Avatar, and just builds into this heartfelt, rollicking adventure. #slashtag
@kevinjamescraig I loved the entire Tales of Arcadia run. Trollhunters, 3Below, and Wizards. My favorite types of stories are those that subvert expectations and get stories out of unexpected characters. This show continually does that in small 23 minute doses while keeping it fun. #slashtag
#slashtag recommending “the night eats the world”; sort of a zombie “all is lost”. The only 2 people I know who have seen it are me and Mark Dujsik the critic. Great film.
@jeffcannata long time listener, first time #slashtag I highly recommend World’s Toughest Race. It’s an actual race, through the Fiji jungle. What people can push their bodies and can endure is amazing. Slashfilm has an excellent review that really encapsulates it perfectly.
