Well have to say the best thing that appeared on Netflix recently is.... Gundam movies 1-3 which summarises the original mobile suit gundam anime back from 1981.

Its an absolute classic and shorten the much slower story telling of the 50+ episodes of the original 40 year old anime. This was a time when gundam anime wasn't made just simply to sell toys/models (which is why anything in the AC universe generally have weak or rehashed plots). The action is simplistic by today's standards. 

Its really hard to find. I had a dvd set which I had to import from hk and the 2nd dvd was spoilt also so I never got to watch it after the beginning 10+ episodes. 

Chars counterattack is also on. 

Though I wish they would have included zeta and gundam zz also. 

Awesome.

I find it pretty lousy actually. Watched about two episodes and stopped. Its myanimelist rating of 6.6 is just about right. Most anime below 7 are quite flawed. Anyrhing more than 7+/10 will have their own fans. 

 

 

 

It's a fight fest story so not much on character building. You need know some kind of background knowledge of these characters on your own as those are not explained in the story. Like my wife was asking me who is lu bu.

Initially I don't like it too as I don't like the way Thor is designed and lack of story, it's the next bout is more interesting.

It will be boring if they just go with all 13 rounds and call it a day. A twist in the middle will be nice.

Yeah fight fest anime is not my thing. 

The premise itself is boring. Its just imagining more innovative ie outlandish ways (by the writer) to win. Combination with a valkyrie... Come on... 

There is some incredibly weak background story. These are just competitors who have a strong desire to win/beat the other guy to a pulp. There is no objective. They just want to win the bout (I cannot lose). 

Shounen battle to satisfy adult gore.

Amazon Prime - The Tomorrow War (Chris Pratt)

not bad, quite entertaining.

yup. Not bad. wont be seeing chris on GOTG anytime soon so it's a nice fill in for the time being.

it was not bad till the last scene when they go into the spaceship. They could have just blow the damn thing in the first place instead of creating so much trouble. 

Another show on Prime is Clarkson's Farm. Boy, i did not expect to like that show so much. Even my wife loves it. I even prefer this than the grand tour season 4. Will be rewatching this.

Hypersonic

For stephen chow humor fans, I have something to intro.
It's a cartoon i originally thought was american for a while and never paid attention cos i thought it was the smart alecky type of humor when dubbed in english.
Then turned out it's made in PRC.

Scissor Seven
刺客伍六七

I don't know how to describe it, but it's really funny in the stephen chow way. Each episode is 10 mins. Took me a while to understand the creators are cantonese cos their chinese is bit stilted. After that everything made sense.

Frankly I didn't like the haunted house frame. Try watching 'mine'. Its in Netflix.
