Is there a chance someone else is using your account? This happened to me on Netflix and long story short my daughter used to rent a basement apartment during Uni and because she was sharing the landlords wifi they somehow continued watching Netflix on my account long after she moved out (they were family of one of her best friends so it was an honest mistake but I kept getting all these recommendations for shows for toddlers and I was so pissed it messed with my suggestions )I do not know what weird algorithm I'm in or movies I'm watching on Amazon Prime that gives me recommendations like Santa Jaws.
A young Aspiring comic book artist is gifted a mysterious pen that brings his drawing to life. Now his creation, Santa Jaws, begins to devour his friends and family.
There is nothing like this in my watch history or anything to indicate I would like this movie.
It shouldn't be that but the first thing I did was log out of all devices and change the password. Amazon tends to give me the weirdest recommendations so this could all be normal for them.Is there a chance someone else is using your account?
My husband and I have been enjoying The Orville. We didn’t intend to, but finished the first couple of seasons just as the third season was starting. It’s funFinally started Strange New Worlds. Best new Star Trek series since The Orville. (my mother asked me if I'd seen the new Star Trek series and I wasn't sure what she was talking about as they only have an ordinary digital TV and definitely no streaming. Finally figured out she'd seen ads for The Orville, which is shown on one of the free-to-air channels here).
Oh God, that's awful.
Kristy Swanson and Kevin Sorbo are still making movies?
I enjoy it too and I think it's improved with time (and when they toned down the humour). Once I just accepted it was Seth McFarlane's Star Trek fan fiction and that it was really the type of standard sci-fi I was seeking (spaceships, aliens, characters I actually like) I really started to get into it.My husband and I have been enjoying The Orville.

I love this movie!Some people here mentioned the 1995 film version of Jane Austen's Persuasion as being a good Austen adaptation.
Here's an article about the film:
Persuasion: the less-famous 1995 BBC Austen adaptation that deserves a sincere revival
Unlike Elizabeth Bennet, Anne Elliot is not playful or witty but quiet, sensible, and regrets not having the courage of her convictionswww.theguardian.com
I recently watched it and enjoyed it.
I wouldn’t call it a good adaption; I’d go further. I think it’s the best adaption of any Austen work so far. It’s a perfect little jewel box of an adaption. I love this movie!Some people here mentioned the 1995 film version of Jane Austen's Persuasion as being a good Austen adaptation.

Thanks for posting that link! I particularly liked this bit: "a young Ciarán Hinds, who could have given Colin Firth a run for his money if the props department had handed him a bucket of water instead of an umbrella."Some people here mentioned the 1995 film version of Jane Austen's Persuasion as being a good Austen adaptation.

100% agree. It's a great adaptation and the effort to try and do things like making the lighting truer to the period and laying off the makeup for the cast only improve it.I wouldn’t call it a good adaption; I’d go further.

No. Nononononono. What the hell is that?!Ita and I’m not at all excited about this: https://youtu.be/Fz7HmgPJQak
I'm horrified!The trailer is going viral for all of the wrong reasons. Screenrant, The Daily Beast and others are reporting the reaction among those of us that love “Persuasion” and to say we are disgusted is putting it mildly.
What the hell did I just watch? This is everything I hate about adaptations of classics which try and make the heroes 'relatable' to modern audiences as if young folk are incapable of understanding that things were different in 'the olden days'. At least I know not to watch it when it gets released.Ita and I’m not at all excited about this: https://youtu.be/Fz7HmgPJQak
You are not alone. Recent headlines:What the hell did I just watch?
