Don't bother with Sense8, only good part was the Dj playing one of my favourite tunes.
Boring and very disjointed, no not for me.
Mr Robot there's just the pilot and i loved it, it's about a guy with some social anxiety disorder who works as an it tech on behalf of some big corporate giant who is basically the anti christ.
Anyway does his job during the day, but at night hacks various social sites, and if he gets an itch for someone than he has to scratch it. In that he digs up their entire life history and proceeds to tear them a new one should anything shady show it.
It's the kind of show that'll have you changing your passwords once you've finished, and i loved every bit of it.

I watched Dirty Dancing after years again yesterday. 
It was my daughter's selection for the feel good Sunday film. Not that I am recommending it, as you all would have watched it a long tome ago, but by God, Patrick Swayze was so handsome and physically attractive specimen of this human race! And how he danced! 
A low budget film that became a huge success internationally due to one man's incredible sex appeal, and so elegantly displayed! Really enjoyed it once again.
So sad he deteriorated and eventually died so young at 57 with aggressive pancreatic cancer. He lives on with this Dirty Dancing classic.

I find a film set in the 50's with an 80's soundtrack quite strange. Other than that, top stuff.
"She's Like the Wind" – Patrick Swayze really sings that epic tune?

What a beautiful man he was!

I find 'Do You Love Me' song and scene the most entertaining in the entire film.
Wait for Swayze to enter. He hits the floor like a thunderbolt! Fantastic dancing by fantastic looking man!

Besides, most women loved stunning Swayze, not just me. I'm even sleeping with full make up on; just in case he turns up in my dreams.

Swayze's early death was terrible, he seemed like one of the good guys

Nice one, Matty. How good was it when he finally got his vengeance on Batiatus!? That last speech - "blood demands blood... join with me, and together we shall see Rome tremble" - gives me goosebumps every time!
Sorry, mate - what was your question? Are Vengeance and War of the Damned on Netflix? If so, I don't know. I've got all the series on DVD.
Hope you enjoy Gods of the Arena. Equally as amazing. Contains some truly mind-blowing scenes. It takes a while to warm to Gannicus but by the end you'll think he's a legend, ha.

Watched the first episode; very good again.

I watched The Veteran last night, I gave it a go as I'm a Toby Kebbell fan. It started off with plenty of promise and was filmed well but here just wasn't a big enough pay-off at the end. I suppose it was the UK's version of the First Blood but staying faithfully to the book's ending.

The Selfish Giant (2013). Re-telling of one of Wilde's; my favourite story. In this one there're a few deprived beings with the riches of compassion in their little hearts. Watch it if you digested Starred Up.
