Inception ?!
Back to the future.
The wrath of khan
Innerspace ?
Fight club ?
The matrix ?

charlieboy1701.bsky.social•120 days ago

Have you seen
TENET?
Top gun Maverick?

planetjericho.bsky.social•120 days ago

Ooooh, so I never got into any of the TG movies, but maverick looks INSANE. Will the plot be missed for me without the previous contexts? 💛

charlieboy1701.bsky.social•120 days ago

No it’s all setup and explained as if it’s the first film.

sydneylife.bsky.social•120 days ago

Probably not available any more - but did you see the Jericho series??? Great stuff, but cancelled before conclusion...

sentenne.bsky.social•120 days ago

I think it’s streaming as I saw it somewhere. But it didn’t have any conclusion. Cancelled

sydneylife.bsky.social•120 days ago

Apparently they continued the series on as a comic book... I find it hard to watch a series that you know isn't finished properly...sadly quite a few..

sentenne.bsky.social•120 days ago

Really? From Network TV to comic books? Go figure

planetjericho.bsky.social•120 days ago

the name got me immediately interested!! I’m almost offended no one has ever told me about it 😉
Added to my list - no further questions 😂😂💛

sydneylife.bsky.social•120 days ago

It's probably dated a bit now - but gee so good, nuclear incident, pretty good cast...

The World's End (Simon Pegg film)

planetjericho.bsky.social•120 days ago

Love the cornetto trilogy!! 💛

seenaswg.bsky.social•120 days ago

Alice in Borderland.

matukkafi.bsky.social•120 days ago

Absolutely love this too, impassionately recommend and cannot wait for season 3.

seenaswg.bsky.social•120 days ago

Ikr???? It's fantastic!

reysgranddaddy.bsky.social•120 days ago

Breaking Bad!

whosbonita.bsky.social•120 days ago

Do you also like zombies? All of us are dead is pretty good and season 2 is coming out soon.

reahhigh.bsky.social•120 days ago

The Leftovers. Originally on HBO or Showtime. Not a comedy but definitely dystopian.

planetjericho.bsky.social•120 days ago

Ooooh! Added to my list! 💛 thank you!!

seoarcade.bsky.social•120 days ago

The Expanse

kimberspiff.bsky.social•120 days ago

I dearly love these amazing character driven shows:
Dystopian - Station Eleven, Snowpiercer
Strong squad - The Magicians
Comedy/squad - Shrinking

planetjericho.bsky.social•120 days ago

OH FANTASTIC CHOICES!
All unseen across the board, which should I dip my toe into first?!

kimberspiff.bsky.social•120 days ago

Kind of depends on your mood. The best one is Snowpiercer (TV), but it's DARK. Shrinking is hilarious and quick since there are only 2 seasons so far. Magicians is dark and funny and fantasy and 5 seasons long if you want to dig into something for a bit. Station Eleven broke my heart in the best way

chesh1r3k.bsky.social•120 days ago

Shrinking, for sure. If you've ever wanted to hear Harrison Ford use the term "raw dogging" in the completely wrong context, it's the show for you.

kimberspiff.bsky.social•120 days ago

Hahaha loved that so much!! And hello Jessica Williams is incredible 😍😍😍

lushflimbaugh.bsky.social•120 days ago

Just going to throw out two of my favorite comedies.

"A Life Less Orindary" kidnapping rom-com by Danny Boyle

"The Making of "And God Spoke" Mocumentary about a D list direct/producer team attempting to make a Biblical epic.

irish5.bsky.social•120 days ago

Hacks
Love the dive into standup comedy and Jean Smart is amazing.

ultraviolet308.bsky.social•120 days ago

Doom patrol and the watchmen series on max. Also DMZ on max was pretty good dystopian series on max as well.
Squid game season 2 is out on the 26th I think

tkniest.bsky.social•120 days ago

“It’s a Gift” with W. C. Fields. Will make you long for Dystopia.

tvtechgrl.bsky.social•120 days ago

Silo for a dystopian fix.

grumpyfollower.bsky.social•120 days ago

Have you seen "The Book of Eli?" If not, I recommend it! It's a bit dated but still one of my favorites!

reecjt.bsky.social•120 days ago

Bad Sisters on Apple TV+. It takes a little bit to get used to the accents, but one of the best and funniest shows that I've seen in years. And yes, it involves a murder.

sentenne.bsky.social•120 days ago

Lovin’ it but use CC to get all the dialogue

cacap67.bsky.social•120 days ago

The adventures of Brisco County Jr. A really underappreciated gem.

doodlebuggb.bsky.social•120 days ago

Are you familiar with The Handmaid’s Tale? There are several seasons on Amazon Prime. I haven’t watched them but I have read the book - which I really enjoyed - and watched the movie, which wasn’t bad. I don’t have the T-shirt though 😉

sentenne.bsky.social•120 days ago

It is chillingly believable now

sentenne.bsky.social•120 days ago

Original on Hulu but past seasons are elsewhere now.

matukkafi.bsky.social•120 days ago

Happy Valley BBC. Sarah Lancashire is magistral, and I appreciate they did zilch romatication of James Norton who is playing an ugly, cruel character.

For opposites day, Cuori from RAI. It's my go-to work stress nullificator right now: strangely delightful medical melodrama love triangles galore.

gabouillegab.bsky.social•120 days ago

Arcane. I watched some of the episodes twice in a row!

loyalexpat.bsky.social•120 days ago

The Colony

derrickoshae.bsky.social•119 days ago

If you have not seen the Australian comedy Fisk, I highly recommend it. Two series are available on Netflix.

Once again the Aussies bring us their weirdly wonderful off-kilter sense of humor. Fisk is superb.

dreaper.bsky.social•120 days ago

The Syfy adaptation of The 12 Monkeys.

ljholiday.com•120 days ago

THX 1138

tvtechgrl.bsky.social•120 days ago

One of my favorites!

planetjericho.bsky.social•120 days ago

Oooh, I’ve genuinely never heard of this one! Gimme the headline! 💛

ljholiday.com•120 days ago

George Lucas's first feature length film. It's a classic.

planetjericho.bsky.social•120 days ago

Oh the one from the 1960s right? His next one was in the 70s I think, American Graffiti- iconic movie. Thanks for sharing a light on his first one. Will add it!

hornswoggled13.bsky.social•120 days ago

“Death of Stalin.”
It’s… a comedy.

blueliliac13.bsky.social•120 days ago

Divergent 2014

nathanyatesmusic.bsky.social•120 days ago

Night of the Comet. 80s camp, zombies, adventure.

boothbygraffoe.bsky.social•120 days ago

Try Possession (1981) Sam Neil & Isabelle Adjani.

Both actors are great. The setting may not be, but the relationship depicted is, dystopian In the extreme.

dfprovine.bsky.social•120 days ago

_Shaun of the Dead_: comic zombies, good fun. _Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves_: Deft blend of action and comedy, good fun. _Uncharted_: secret keys, hidden passageways, mysterious clues. Preposterous action sequences. Several characters have Chronic Backstabbing Disorder. Good dumb fun.

megmercy.bsky.social•120 days ago

Evil (great squad/universe/etc.)

The Umbrella Academy (I was opposed until I watched it)

megavolt.bsky.social•120 days ago

Arcane.
Galaxy Quest.
Sweet Tooth.
Hogfather.

marlinebowers1.bsky.social•120 days ago

I would have said Idiocracy ...... but that would be a redundant over-kill since we are living it.

jamielittleflower.bsky.social•120 days ago

Have you seen Quick Change with Bill Murray and Gina Davis?

planetjericho.bsky.social•120 days ago

I have but I love the dark and dry humor in it, great suggestion too! 💛💛

carynjmachon.bsky.social•120 days ago

The Last of Us was great! As far as movies not listed The Usual Suspects.

planetjericho.bsky.social•120 days ago

Oooh both ones I haven’t seen? Which would you watch first?! 💛

carynjmachon.bsky.social•120 days ago

That's a tough call, The Usual Suspects because it's so we'll done.

pjflorida.bsky.social•120 days ago

Check out “millions” by Danny Boyle. Very underrated Christmas movie. Also set against the currency change in Britain /EU. I mean it’s Danny Boyle.

moneyspider98.bsky.social•120 days ago

Stand By Me it's somewhat of an adventure and with some comedy but I've yet to find anything else like it regardless of genre so im recommending it anyway. It's slept on.
