Dredd

[calzephyr]

Our new TV has been such a blessing since the old one couldn't do the fancy digital channels. I caved and started watching Tubi. It's so hard to get the movies you want in Canada, plus the the "leaving this month" email motivated me to take a look.

Dredd definitely had the feel of a comic book movie as well as a video game inspired one as well. I forgot how saturated movies from this time where--it's either painfully blue/orange or red/green in places--but the ripping soundtrack and action sequences were great! This is a very squishy movie with some flashes of sexual assault and definitely not for younger viewers in more ways than one. It's such a bleak version of the future that I hope doesn't come true!

Is that the one with Sylvester Stallone? Is Tubi like a free streaming site, a Hulu of sorts?

[calzephyr]

Dredd stars Karl Urban and it's from 2012. The Sylvester Stallone version is from 1995! I haven't watched that one either.

Tubi is kind of like Plex? I don't have Hulu so I can't compare--https://tubitv.com

Sturday Night at the Fea Pit (When We Had the Money to Go)

Tubi asks me to sign in but gives me the option to sign in with a Google account. I'm 98% sure I have one of those, and yet, with cookies off and javascript on it looks like it will work anyway... I clicked "watch now" on whatever was in the lineup that was cycling through. It was Tarzan. It started playing, no fuss, no muss. I turned off Javascript via opening another tab and doing that there. Tarzan was still playing. Good sign! I don't want to see Tarzan so I closed the tab in which Tubi was playing. I'll go back some time to see if they have Isle of Dogs. I haven't seen that yet. Thanks!

NP! I haven't seen Isle of Dogs either.

[ladythmpr]

Nope, not for me; I think for the same reason I didn't see it the first time around. Maybe even moreso now. Dark is extremely difficult for me right now.

I get it! I wasn't sure what to expect at all. I'm good with just watching it once.
