Let's discuss the most intriguing movies or shows. Comment your choice if it isn't here. I'm ready to discuss these 3 and anxious to. But perhaps that will change. These are what I have chosen for a first go. Esoteric perhaps but great projects.

I wonder if "Gorilla Minus One" will get "snakes on a plane" treatment?

reply

It's a short film involving confused dinner reservations at the most mediocre place on earth....which is kinda exclusive and I know the owner.

reply

I'll go with Mr robot

Edit: The second option is Godzilla, Minus One.

Great love....

reply

Gojiiirrrra, pity the legendary version makes the series seem childish, minus one and shin were both epic stories

Why are related posts not showing on this post?

reply

Idk....it's a poll 🤷‍♂️

reply

@k00b should polls also have related posts in the UI? I was somewhat hoping my Mr. Robot-related posts would show up here, given it's a poll option.

reply

Sure!

reply

Maybe because it's a poll option and not 'in the body of the text'

reply

Could be. It could also be that polls are just explicitly excluded from the related posts behavior.

I'll open a GitHub issue today.

Update:

This post does not show "Related Posts" because it's pinned to the territory, due to the !item.position check here

I assume this is intentional, so I won't open an issue in this case.

reply

Ah yeah that's there because I didn't want related posts for the saloon.

The series or is there a movie?

reply

No movie yet

Gattaca Now that is a movie worth watching.

reply

Battlestar Galactica.

reply

Started with 2.5 near-perfect seasons, and I almost wish they'd stopped there.

I can't remember how it all shook out, but what stands out in my mind is some of the smartest treatment of the relationship between the individual and the group that I've ever seen anywhere. That, more than how much I like it as a show (which is A LOT) is why I suggested it.

I do remember not loving the very end, but I rarely do.

reply

Oh yeah, it had all that in spades. Amazing dynamics, and the setting really helped them explore it. The writing was also super sharp, both on the large scale level, but also around dialogue and character interaction.

BG is goated

@farscapian turned me onto their namesake, Farscape, recently. I haven't had a chance to give it a shot yet.

reply

oh man, Farscape. It reminds me of that puppet, what was his name? I remember my father loved that show. I also remember watching the tv show called Sliders when it first came out!

reply

Godzilla...minus one. Sorry saw it after edit
