3 Body Problem
Intriguing Sci fi with several narratives running through it. Alien contact, virtual reality and shady industrialist with dogged quasi detective on his tail. High quality fx and excellent flashback Chinese sixties period settings.
Not sure where its all going to end up but two episodes in and very rewarding so far.

Sounds very promising PU - thanks
Be interested to learn if the quality is maintained as you get deeper into the series

Antisocial Network: Memes To Mayhem“The Antisocial Network: Memes to Mayhem” is a documentary about 4Chan, the popular imageboard website that became the Petri dish in which QAnon — the mother of all crackpot conspiracy theories — came into being. The story of 4Chan makes for a fascinating chapter in the evolution of Internet culture. But chances are we wouldn’t be seeing a documentary about it that drops today on Netflix if the 4Chan saga hadn’t culminated in the arrival of QAnon. Given the significance of QAnon (i.e., the fact that half the country now thinks batshit psychotic fantasy scenarios are the essence of reality), you’d think that when the movie arrived at its creation, it would feel like you were entering the last circle of the heart of darkness..... variety.com/2024/film/reviews/the-antisocial-network-memes-to-mayhem-review-1235961830/

^^ Well worth watching. How a simple nerd comic meme site grew out of control and was one of main factors in the Capitol City insurrection. Americans are nuts.

I was vaguely aware of 4Chan but had no idea it had spawned this insane parallel universe. Felt dizzy just watching it.

Eight for Silver
Very good, solid monster movie set in pre WW1 rural France. A massacre of a Gypsy encampment leads to a curse being placed on the complicit landlords. 7/10
