I watched Episode 4 of the Book of Boba Fett - “The Gathering Storm”

Good news is that this was a MUCH better episode that last week's mess. And the Power Rangers were nowhere to be found (thank the Maker!). It closed a few threads while keeping others open and thankfully, we see that the Wookiee for hire (whose name I won't even try to spell) is still in the picture. I almost got a bit of a Godfather vibe from the meeting with the other 'families' to discuss the potentially upcoming war. It was nice to see the biker gang finally wrapped up. I still have trouble believing that such an inept group were able to wipe out the Tuskens in that off-screen slaughter. Maybe it was the Pyke syndicate and they simply wanted it to look like it was the bikers?

Anyway, some past questions were answered and we finally have closure on Boba Fett and the Sarlaac pit too. And other than another cringey droid chase, this episode was a much-needed improvement from the last, giving me hope that this series won't be a total trainwreck.
On the Tusken Raiders Fennec Shand said as much.

So they seem to be strongly hinting that it was the Pyke syndicate.

Decided to binge Archive 81 on Netflix over the weekend. It was.........different, albeit good. Netflix has it labeled as horror, but it felt more suspense/mystery to me. It's one of those shows that definitely demands your attention. There is a lot of story detail sprinkled throughout. Overall though, I liked it. Kept me intrigued from episode 1.

Might help if you name the show :D
I was wondering that too, and just assumed it's the last show being discussed, but IDK. Could be having a conversation with someone on my ignore list...or could have multiple personalities.

I just have to say Peacemaker has the greatest opening credits ever.

I’ll definitely have to check this out cause I thought the same about the opening credits for Arcane which was pretty awesome!

Okay, I just finished the third or fourth episode of Ozark, and so far, it's like Breaking Bad to me. I just don't see what all the fuss is about. There's not much else on that I'm interested in, so I'll keep watching to see if it gets any better, but mostly I find it depressing, which sucks because I like Jason Bateman.

Keep at it, takes half a season to build up storylines. Later in season one is where I got hooked in “The Toll” episode.

Finished the first part of the last season of Ozark. Pretty good. One thing about Ozark is there is always a holy crap moment in the last episodes of a season. Where everything is going normal and then Bam out of nowhere.

I still need to finish Archive 81. Kind of strange and I won't give anything away but it seems they are making sure to give you obvious clues about what is going on.

Wolf Creek 1 and 2 - Been some time since I watched either but they were on Tubi so I watched both again. Really enjoy this show. They both start out kind of meh but once the Main character Mick Taylor shows up it is on. Guy has a crazy laugh that is funny but at the same time unnerving. These are slasher movies out of Australia. If you like the crazy slasher kind of movies I think you will enjoy these. However as I noted earlier they do start out kind of crappy. Basic story is tourist (aussie kids in first movie, german and english in the second) find themselves the target of Mick Taylor, a crazy aussie outback kind of guy. The guy playing him does a great job.

I have read they have a third one they are going to or were going to make but apparently it is not out yet.

HOWEVER - I also learned they made two seasons of a tv series (6 episodes each). Could not find them on a regular streaming service so I had to go other routes not to be spoken of lol. I think the first season is pretty good. Have not finished the second season but I think the first season was better. I think @MichaelWinicki would enjoy this. I would imagine he has already watched the two movies.

Yeah, the two movies were excellent... Two different directions but both very good!

I very much enjoyed the first season of the TV series– May even qualify as excellent!

I found it a slog to get through the second season.

I gave up halfway through season 3. The little blond channeling Joe Pesci was just too much. I have never heard any dialogue that lazy.

I like Bateman but not in this. He’s underplaying it that he’s not even necessary to be there. Not his kind of production.

And I think the director’s wife cast all of the women. That female cast is the cure for that Viagra side effect.

Laura Linney was never what I'd consider "hot", but she looks really bad in this. The Pesciette looks pretty much like the white trash she portrays, the strippers shouldn't be, and when the former owner of resort was talking about letting cute guys slip their hands down the back of her pants, I thought, "Well, can't call her a ho, 'cause it probably never happens."

When the opening comes on and it warms of "nudity", I think, "Oh crap "
