@jiminstitches ill definitely give it a go. I enjoyed the other two series they did. Masters of the Air doesn’t look as good to me for some reason. Not sure what it is but the trailers haven’t really done it for me. I’ll definitely still check it out. Hopefully I’m wrong!

I'd recommend Masters of the Air for the flying jackets alone! Some amazing leather! The first couple of episodes are watch worthy enough to keep me engaged in following the series.

[jiminstitches]

@IH-GARY watched the first 2 and thought it was great! Felt more like band of brothers and not quite as harrowing as the pacific. The in-flight scenes were incredible and yes the leather jackets were great, I have a feeling that knowing the level of detail hanks and Spielberg have they would of done their history on the clothing

[IH-GARY]

@jiminstitches the jackets were supplied by Aero & Eastman, so no surprise on how good they look. I think anyone expecting BOB etc may be a little disappointed. I’m in it for the aviation history, the details in the cockpit scenes are fascinating and the actual aerial bombardments from flak and small aircrafts look terrifying.

@IH-GARY - agreed. Although I have a general good-natured antipathy towards the ‘air component’ (having been in the Army for 20 years), I wanted to dislike this. However, I thought it was really good and the jackets were pretty damn impressive. I will definitely be watching the rest of the series although I fully expect that it will tail off like Band of Brothers and The Pacific did. Here’s hoping that it doesn’t.

pretty good, and Gary Oldman disgusting as well as brilliant

I’ve been watching Blue Eye Samurai per @EdH ’s suggestion and I’m loving it. Thanks Ed!

@Mizmazzle your Floyd post reminded me of this one - at a certain point they discuss making the cover art for that one as well as a bunch of other awesome albums

@GraemeE cool! I’ll check this out!

[Oaktavia]

Has anyone watched Hazbin Hotel on Amazon? Takes place in Hell and has a surprisingly outstanding series of songs...if you're into those things. My wife and I have watched the first season twice already..

[T4920]

@GraemeE this was fantastic, watched it on a flight recently.

Had no idea all these iconic designs came from a single small collective!

The Twins Experiment on Netflix was good. I think it was called You Are What You Eat.

I see they have another cult documentary series so keen to watch that one too.

[popvulture]

@Oaktavia what kind of jams?

On that note, the soundtrack of the new True Detective has been fucking excellent so far. The show overall’s pretty rad too.

@mclaincausey I enjoyed the twin thing as well, pretty interesting. I want one of those body scans.

[Oaktavia]

@popvulture the soundtrack to Hazbin Hotel, if you watch the show you'll see. Lots of songs about the story, some of which are about love and are sappy, but at the same time raunchy and super vulgar, even pornographic. The main character is called Charlie Morningstar and is the Princess of Hell, daughter of Lucifer.

I have been enjoying the new True Detective too, super entertaining.

@Oaktavia haha alright, curiosity definitely piqued!

It's animated and pretty wild, already controversial with the Satanic Panic crowd.

Hahahaha sign me up even more

[mclaincausey]

@popvulture yeah I’m getting one and some tests I read about in Outlive that are not (but should be) part of our preventative protocols. Meaning I’ll have to pay out of pocket.

The scans seem to be we’ll under $100

[popvulture]

@mclaincausey that’s good to know — I figured they’d be out of pocket, but also thought they’d cost a lot more since they’re sort of a lite CT scan.

True Detective and Mr & Mrs Smith on Amazon are our current appointment shows right now. Both are excellent.
