Something about it was lost on me originally. I watched it again later, and while I liked it I still somehow didn't get the HUGE hype it seemed to have. Saw it yet again a few years ago and was like yeah, that's a classic πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ

Totally agree with you. It’s definitely a classic. How I view this movie definitely evolves with worldview

Downloading it. Will rewatch soon

I wanna give that ... gd it what's the name of it, I keep forgetting. Ah yes, Blink Twice movie a shot. Heard a couple decent reviews now

Oh wow I remember this one. Messed up movie. Definitely worth a watch

Good not great. I get why people love it though. Island cough cough

It's recent, right? Did I mess the name up again? Let's see...yup, got it right. I heard two positive reviews from IRL people. Not rave, but solid. And Quick Look at trailer told me good casting and tone. Good enough for me these days.

It's odd isn't it. There's a British sitcom called "Black Adder" staring Rown Atkinson, it is one my absolute favourites, 4 series with only 6 episodes in each. I must have seen each of them at least 15 or 20 times over the past 30-35 years. Each and everytime I've watched them, I'll find myself laughing at different things each time which I hadn't previously, as my world view and knowledge thereof, improves. It is a masterpiece, of writing. Co-written by......Richard Curtis, of 4 Weddings a d a Funeral fame, for all you film buffsπŸ™„πŸ˜‚, and no, I've not seen that eitherπŸ€·πŸ»β€β™‚οΈπŸ˜‚.

Omg, you had me at Rown Atkinson! Name of show sounds familiar, but could be I'd heard "Dark Adder" in a video game or something. Holy shit! I must see this now..well, soon

If you've not seen it, it's ABSOLUTE GOLD. The first series is a bit slow and clunky but the last 3 are phenomenal.

1st Series: The dark ages.

2nd Series: Elizabethan.

3rd Series: Georgian.

4th Series: The 1st World War, while still funny, it's actually quite moving and thought provoking this one!

Unless I have amnesia, I've not seen! Giddy now

Enjoy. I'm almost certain you willπŸ™πŸ».

The first Series was made in, I think, 1982. A very young Rowan!

Aired in 83, per wikipedo

Hope the age of production doesn't hurt my enjoyment

As I say, the first series isn't the best, but fight through it, the last 3 are brilliant. As well as Rowan there are appreances and guest appearances by Rik Mayal (Guest) and also, Steven Fry (Permanent, great characters).

Oh, and Hugh LoryπŸ˜‚.

Love him in this show!

He's great as Prince GeorgeπŸ˜¬πŸ˜‚.

He cracks me up!!!

His stupidity is beyond beliefπŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚.

Damn socks.....Ran out again.....you'd think someone was coming in.....stealing the damn things......and selling them on.

Impossible Sir, only you and I have access to your socksπŸ˜¬πŸ˜‚.

Oof, fight through 3 eps is a tall order, especially if I have to convince others to watch with me. But I think I can manage

In that case, just the the 1st series off, or watch it on your own, when your husband has gone to bed😬😜.

Good idea. He's not too bright, shouldn't notice the continuity gap

I won't ruin anything for you, but as we're both wordsmiths (Of a fashion), there's an episode, during the 3rd Series, that involves Dr Johnson, who actually wrote the first English dictionary. It is so so so funnyπŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚.

Ooh, a cunning linguist. Looking forward

I promise that is the only spoiler I'll post. He's having a piss up with his mates, and his Puritan Aunt and Uncle turn upπŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚.

I loooooove Blackadder! Absolute classic show.

Rowan Atkinson is amazing 🀩

And Ben Elton (who I adore) also co-wrote.

Funniest stand up show I’ve ever seen in person was Ben Elton.

Oh shit. Maybe it was you who mentioned it to me a while back and that's why it sounded familiar

Not sure. Maybe

Definitely my fave Rowan Atkinson show

6 episodes, not 3πŸ€·πŸ»β€β™‚οΈ.

They're only 30 mins long, though.

Oh, you can see how I misunderstood. ..maybe. Got it. S1 not best, but not gonna skip

β€œWikipedo” they did some shit? πŸ‘€

Had to insist phone not autocorrect it. They lie enough, I assume they diddle kids πŸ€·β€β™€οΈ

🀣

I trust your recommendations 🫑

4 seasons are queued

That's brilliant node. I hope you enjoy it, just get past the 1st series, I actually quite like it, but a lot of people don't.

Rowan Atkinson is a legend. 30mins episodes is very digestible

I must have seen it a dozen times. Great comedic writing.

And there it is. From the man who considers Will Ferrell a hack, and Lat Williams a modern genius/philosopher. Ie., he knows what's up...sometimes
