Why don't you hold your breath while you're waiting.Not yet. Still waiting.

I never understood why they did that. They should at least give people the option the way the Simpsons did when they streamed on FX’s app.Finally got around to subscribing to Britbox. So much stuff to watch, mostly for nostalgia sake. Currently watching something from the early 80s, but getting annoyed as they've blown up the picture to 16:9 full screen, meaning the top and bottom of the original vision is cut off. Guys - this is why you pillar box old 4:3 content!
Thanks for the recommendation!The Last Letter From Your Lover is such a lovely throwback. A glossy melodramatic romantic period drama. It doesn’t all work but the ENDING!!! Also, this will make great figure skating music.
The third one, Prisoner of Azkaban, is still my favorite despite two MAJOR issues I have with it as a book fan.I finished the last of the Harry Potter movies last night, available on Peacock. It was quite nice to watch movies 5 - 8 one after the other. Took me probably a month to do it. Now I am sort of wishing I had started all the way back at the beginning. Oh well, I do think I’m going to watch the first one just for the contrast of how young they were then vs. at the end.
So true.However, it's the only movie that I feel that was actually made by a cinematic master who really knows filmcraft. There's so much magic and tonal consistency throughout the film. There's so much stimulating visuals and nothing is static. I just think there was so much heart and soul into this one that it makes the other films seem very paint-by-the-numbers in comparison.

It's my favorite book and my favorite movie! But I'm an Alfonso Cuarón fan so that's not surprising.The third one, Prisoner of Azkaban, is still my favorite despite two MAJOR issues I have with it as a book fan.
POA was the book that turned me from a casual "this is enjoyable" reader into a diehard HP fan.It's my favorite book and my favorite movie! But I'm an Alfonso Cuarón fan so that's not surprising.
It was extremely scary to watch this. Very good story though and worth watching.Just started "Dr. Death" on Peacock. Alec Baldwin and Christian Slater are both good, and Joshua Jackson is quite chilling.

I love Glow Up! Is conflab a word they made up? Becaus I never hear it anywhere else.I'm watching Glow Up on Netflix. I usually end up fast forwarding through the insufferable judges comments but I do enjoy seeing what people try to create. I can't fast forward through all the judges comments and I am getting extremely tired of hearing Val Garland asking for a conflab with Dominic Skinner. She makes it sound 100000% pretentious. I will be happy if I never hear the word again.
It depends on where you live. Confab vs Conflab. Most people are less pretentious and say let's chat.I love Glow Up! Is conflab a word they made up? Becaus I never hear it anywhere else.
I think conflab should be confab but I would let's chat, too.It depends on where you live. Confab vs Conflab. Most people are less pretentious and say let's chat.
In the pantheon of movies made for children or based on literature for children "Prisoner" is at the top or near the top of my favorites list. I agree with everything you said here.The third one, Prisoner of Azkaban, is still my favorite despite two MAJOR issues I have with it as a book fan.One is the invention of Super!Hermione who became way too perfect and stole parts of Ron's personality and lines; and the other is not explaining the Marauder's background story enough towards the end. However, it's the only movie that I feel that was actually made by a cinematic master who really knows filmcraft. There's so much magic and tonal consistency throughout the film. There's so much stimulating visuals and nothing is static. I just think there was so much heart and soul into this one that it makes the other films seem very paint-by-the-numbers in comparison. Hogwarts and the HP world never looked so alive and within grasp of our world and yet have so much magic going on all at once. The changing of the scenery, the way the camera follows the students and thus giving us a grasp of how Hogwarts is laid out, and the cinematography are all top-notch.
Is there a new season?I love Glow Up! Is conflab a word they made up? Becaus I never hear it anywhere else.
