I'm a simple woman, I see Matthew Goode, I watch.
Nathan Fielder must be stopped
I’d like to report a Christmas-themed crime.
I loved season 1, but I think season 2 eclipsed it in every way. Started off a little slow but finished really strong. Had me laughing out loud a lot
This show started off a bit slow I thought, and reminded me in no small way of the Chronicle of Narnia books I read as a kid, with a modern twist. Another one of those, I thought. Great. I put this show aside for awhile, and only recently came back to it again when the new season released. I've found myself starting to care about the characters a bit more. There must be some new writing talent behind it, but it feels more like the same writers have begun to find their way. This show... this show turns me on. In a way I can't quite put my finger on, it's kinda sexy. It's fulfilling in a way that a B-movie can be entertaining on the right night and in the right company.
If Stephen King and Steven Spielberg had a baby, this is EXACTLY what it would look it.

Razor (101 minute extended version - not the 81 minute broadcast version)
Important note: This was originally broadcast just before Season 4, but chronologically it fits here, telling more of the Pegasus's story. Some people argue it's better to watch after Season 3, as originally broadcast, but it makes most sense to watch it here.
The reason that the placement of Razor is a hotly contested issue among BSG fans is because of a bit of dialogue at the very end (in the last 10 minutes) which sets the tone for Season 4 (barely even a spoiler). Everything else in this TV movie is not a spoiler.
So why place it here, and not where it was originally broadcast, if there's any sort of issue? Because, chronologically, the story is set here, and by the time you reach the end of Season 3, the story of Pegasus will feel like ancient history. Indeed, that was the complaint echoed around the internet from fans after Razor originally aired -- it had nothing to do with what was going on in the story at that time.
As a result of this, most fans agree it's better to watch Razor here. In doing so, you'll appreciate the story more and it will have greater emotionally resonance. In short: I highly recommend that you follow my advice and watch it here.
There is one small caveat, however: In order to deal with the above dialogue issue, and so not to unintentionally alter the tone of Season 3, I have two, very specific instructions that I recommend that you follow for your absolute optimum enjoyment.
I will try not to spoil anything with these instructions, so pay attention. You need to press MUTE on your TV (and/or turn off any subtitles) in the following two moments. Both of these moments occur in the last 10 minutes of the story, so you can relax and enjoy the first 90 mins before you need to worry.
Press MUTE when:
and shortly afterwards:
That's it! That's all you have to worry about. Two very small moments, and even if you don't unmute it, it's not a huge spoiler, it just unintentionally alters the tone of Season 3 if you don't, so do try your best to follow my instructions.

A stand-alone movie that shows (approximately) the first two seasons from the Cylons' perspective. (You finally get to see "The Plan", mentioned all those times in the opening sequence!) Although The Plan was originally released after the show had finished, it is generally agreed that it should be watched here, so that everything is all tied up when you do reach the end.

4.17 Someone to Watch Over Me
4.18 Islanded In a Stream of Stars (62 minute extended version - only on BluRay releases and Region 1 DVDs)
4.19 Daybreak (150 minute extended version - only on BluRay releases and Region 1 DVDs)
The Plan : This is where this DVD/Bluray movie was originally released (after the show had finished). It seems universally agreed that it's preferable to watch this after No Exit, instead of after you've finished the entire series, but there's no harm in waiting until now.
Then Caprica the series: http://trakt.tv/show/caprica
Great cast, poor execution.
With genius lines like:
-Isn't it like, stored in the cloud?
-There's a physical copy TOO.
o_O
This show gets better and better each episode. So funny and awkward, I can't wait to see what they'll come up with next.
I can't understand the criticism... This show is literally AMAZING!!!! I think u need to change ur point....
If you like Before Sunrise, check this out. Super cute.
A movie about pretentious white kids. What a surprise.
I didn't expect this movie to be as awesome as it was. Perfect combination of everything that's Jane Austen and zombies. I loved that neither of those two worlds gets overthrown by the other.
Boring as hell
Perhaps the ultimate Christmas film and the pinnacle of British humour.

this movie > the fault in our stars
Qué paja tener que buscar los títulos en inglés. ¡Esta película se llama Relatos Salvajes, carajo!
Tatiana Maslany is so underrated, what a brilliant actress.
This just keeps on getting better and better.
i can't believe this movie only has a 68% rating it's literally the best movie of all time

Adapted from the classic Frank Miller graphic novel, Batman Year One is a serviceable-good but not great-animated film. The plot tells the parallel origin stories of Batman and Jim Gordon, with Bruce Wayne returning to Gotham City after years of exile and planning to become a vigilante and new out-of-town transfer to the Gotham City Police Department Gordon taking on corruption in the city as well as in his own ranks.
The source graphic novel was a heavy but not sole influence on Christopher Nolan's Batman Begins, as such there are elements here which will feel familiar to anyone who has seen Nolan's first installment of his recently concluded Dark Knight trilogy. However, the actual plot of Year One is distinct enough so as to be enjoyable on its own right, regardless of Batman Begins. For example, the lead character here is most definitely Gordon and not Wayne, and the second half of the story also finds time to work in a mini-origin story for Catwoman, both of which are elements not present in Batman Begins. The bigger hurdle might be watching Year One if you have already read the graphic novel. At times, the dialogue and individual shots are such exact copies of their counterparts from the novel that you might find yourself questioning if the film is really necessary viewing if you've read the novel.
However, does the film stand on its own irregardless of Nolan's films or its source novel? I would argue yes. The story is interesting enough, the animation is well done, and the vocal talent on hand is decent enough, with Bryan Cranston's work as Gordon standing heads and shoulders above the rest. However, the story is perhaps a bit too introspective, the action sequences solid but too few, and the middle section detailing Gordon's relationship with a female partner feeling like padding, a common issue with the DC Animated films where biding their time sections of the source graphic novels really drag far more in film than they ever did on paper. As such, it is a merely a good film, not great. Recently, the film was added to Netflix Instant Streaming. As such, I would happily recommend this film to Batman fans with access to Netflix. However, I would hesitate before recommending it to those who would have to buy it in order to see it. On the buy it, trash it, rent/stream it scale, it is solid rent/stream for Batman fans.
Bastante divertida
