Yeah not watching that. Watched that new Godzilla Kong film on Sky was pretty boring. Watched Quiet place day one too was pretty bog standard.

At the moment have made a start on Squid Game 2, but the show I'm excited for is Severance S2 on Apple TV later this month.

If you haven't seen S1 the £10 fee for the month is well worth it. One of the most interesting and quality TV shows to come out in years

Severance S1 was outstanding, hopefully S2 can live up to it

Severance is the absolute b0llox - easily the best TV show since Breaking Bad. Phenomenal first season

Different strokes for different folks. I saw Wicked on the stage and enjoyed it. I thought Severance S1 was a pile of boring pretentious crap.

Went to watch Wicked on stage many years ago because the Mrs got free tickets.

It’s the only stage show I’ve ever walked out of. Utter crap imo. So glad we didn’t spend money on it.

Off the back of that, I decided the film probably wasn’t for me

Took my daughters over the festive period, it was horrendous but they loved it.

Never got around to seeing it on stage, watched the movie in the cinema last week, and although a bit slow at the start I thought it was well made. Ariana was surprisingly good, looking forward to part 2.

Didn't mind it, both actors unlikeable in real life but thought they did a decent job and the film was well made. A lot of the songs just overstay their welcome though and the film in general was too long.

I reckon my sister has been to see the stage play of Wicked at least ten times (a few times free as she gets PR tickets because she has a lot if instagram followers). She's also been to various Disney parks at least twenty times, including Disneyland Paris 5 times this year. Sometimes her and her family will drive there from Kent very early in the morning and either come back the same day or stay one night.
I don't understand how you can enjoy something after seeing it/doing it so many times. Phenomenal waste of money. I get the feeling her husband and daughter don't really enjoy it either. My brother in law is of the "happy wife, happy life" school of thought. He never looks happy in any of the photos 🤣

The two main actors are insufferable so have no interest in watching this.

If you think Ariana Grande is insufferable, watch her in Sam & Cat (Nickelodeon show). My kids used to watch it but I had to ban it because the voice she affects in it is simply unbearable. She plays a real air head, who has been infantilsed by the show runner (that fat cnt who has had loads of abuse allegations leveled at him).

So is it worth watching or not?

Dan Schneider? That guy's a total creep, most of the kids that starred in shows back in the mid early to late 00 he created lost the plot so no surprise Ariana isn't quite right in the head too.
