sabotloursI forgot a couple of shows plus we added a new recently-watched movie.
"Ozark" - Netflix - I call this "Breaking Bad Light" or "Breaking Bad Wannabe." That's OK. It's still high praise for a show about a somewhat normal guy trying to protect his family from very bad people by becoming a bad person himself. I was a little ticked that they made it a split-season which left me hanging until the second half is released.
"Billions" - Showtime - My second favorite show about the dealings of the filthy rich of our country. The best show is "Succession." The one thing I always say about this show is that people put way too much effort into screwing other people when you already have the world at your feet. I guess "enough" is never enough.
"Luca" - Disney+ - The Oscar nominations came out, and this movie popped up on the list of best animated feature. It's from Disney/Pixar, but I really had no desire to watch it. Something about Italy and a scooter? I'm so glad we watched it! It was wonderful! It also has some of the best transformation that I have seen in movies! It's about a sea monster who transforms into a human when on dry land, but transforms back when he gets wet. There's all sorts of typical coming-of-age stuff like going out on your own against your parents wishes and wanting to see the world. There's a little romance, but not a major plot point. I thought "Encanto" would be a shoe-in for the win, but now I'm not so sure. This movie had so much more heart. It's definitely my choice to winb.
