Legion Series Premier
Based on the Marvel Comics, it follows a troubled young man who may be the most powerful mutant ever. Airs Wednesday nights.
Talk about must-see television! This might be the best series opener I’ve ever seen. This could’ve been a major motion picture with all of the talent and skill they poured into it.
Written and created by Noah Hawley, the genius behind television’s Fargo, Legion delivers on every level. Everything about the show – cast, writing, cinematography, direction – is out of this world.
However, this is an X-Men show for adults only. It’s dark and mature.
Even if you’re not a superhero fan, you’ll be enthralled with this show.
Highly recommended!
Movie Review – John Wick: Chapter 2
John Wick is forced from retirement to repay a marker. A large body count ensues.
This one is for true action fans only. The plot is thread-bare at best. And when the action kicks in, it doesn’t let up. For almost two hours.
High marks for location and style. Reeves and cast do a fine job with what they’re given.
My main complaint is the excessive, non-stop violence. After about fifty people had been shot in the head at point-blank range, I lost track. I think it ended somewhere around two hundred. Maybe more.
If you like your action films brutal and violent, this film is right up your alley.
The IWSG Made a List!
Thanks to all of you who are part of that community, either through the weekly posting, following the site, following us on Twitter, receiving the newsletter, or part of the Facebook group.
We have some big things planned this year and we’ll be announcing those plans as they come together.
Special Writer Feature
We have such a great community of bloggers and writers here that I’ve decided to start featuring some cool people you may not have met yet.
Hank is a poet who lives in Kuala Lumper in Malaysia. He has two published books - Rainbow - Poetry and Prose and Pearls That Shine, published under pen name Hank P. Luz.
I met Hank a few years ago, and while I don’t always understand poetry, I can certainly recognize his incredible talent at taking a few random words and making something beautiful. He’s also fast on the draw, getting the top comment spot almost every time. (Kind of like a Ninja, he just slips in.) The dude rocks!
Why the passion for the genre you write?
1. It allows one to venture out further into realms of creative writing
2. Poetry allows openness without inhibitions in language usage better than the normal way of expression
What started the quest for the number one spot?
1. Enhancing the competitive spirit
2. Better peer group awareness
What is your favorite movie?
1. Ten Commandments
2. Ben Hur
Both are even and both beat them all
Well said, Hank! And I like your movie choices. Now, will you be number one to comment on your own special feature…?

Anyone else see Legion last week? Go to see John Wick 2? Ready for all the great new things coming for the IWSG? Friend of rocking-cool Hank? Watching Faceoff? Picking up new books? And how many movies did you guess? (I think the most anyone got right was five.)
I’m taking a four day weekend for President’s Day weekend, so I’ll be scarce those days and I’m taking Monday off from posting. Next post - March 1, IWSG post day.
Congrats on your site ISWG BEING HONOURED, Much work must go into making it a success. Thanks to all concerned.
ReplyDeleteI have been a follower of Hank at Rainbow for quite a while and love his poetry. Thanks for featuring a well deserved poet.
Yvonne.
I was thinking at first that Legion must be a new superhero film when I started reading your post...so interesting that they decided to go with TV!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations to the IWSG and to Hank for the spotlight here. :)
Hi Alex - I'm glad you're taking a break ... and thanks for all you do for aspiring authors, new sites, books, ideas for films etc ... and congratulations for the IWSG - which I follow but am not a member of ... take care and enjoy that brief holiday - cheers Hilary
ReplyDeleteThanks Alex! Been quite a break every time Hank gets into the Ninja's domain. One gets educated and informed all at the same time. It is not easy to scour around to get what is on offer that Alex pleases.It also skims through time and space for SF very eloquently. Great! Keep at it!
ReplyDeleteHank
PS Congrats! Hank trails your feat at Pat's today!
Good Morning Alex,
ReplyDeleteNice to see Hank featured, I often see him early in the morning on the number 1 track.
If you have a moment check out my blog if you haven't done so already...
High praise indeed for the Legion series premier, I get the feeling you rather enjoyed it. :)
ReplyDeleteI was already intrigued enough to go and visit Hank at Rainbow, but your Ninja comment cinched it – I will be there as soon as I leave here.
Congratulations on making the list and enjoy your break.
Congratulations Hank.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations to IWSG. I visit you regularly for some good reading.
Books look great. Movies meh, I'm more of a chick flick gal than a heart pounding action movie fan.
Congrats to those with new releases!
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your upcoming long weekend, Alex!
Sorry but I don't think I'm going to watch Legion. Congrats on the IWSG award. And have a great four days off. Glad you're giving yourself a break from blogging too.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Yvonne!
ReplyDeleteHank, you're welcome! And still stunned I slipped in first at Pat's today.
Truedessa, I saw a post this weekend but it was gone by the time I got there - is it back?
Barbara, go visit him!
Hi, Alex!
ReplyDeleteMrs. S and I had house guests recently, handed them the remote and let them choose the movies we watched during their stay. It was a steady stream of Bruce Willis and Steven Seagal action films, their favorite genre. The neo-noir action thriller Wick 2 is their kind of movie, but I'm not sure I want to see two hours of nonstop executions. The debate goes on as to whether films loaded with extreme violence are harmful or serve a beneficial cathartic purpose.
Have a great week, good buddy!
Good news on IWSG making that list, congrats. I enjoy poetry, as you say I don't think you always have to understand it completely to admire it and take something away from it. Enjoy your weekend.
ReplyDeleteGood to know Legion is worth the watch. I'm not so sure about John Wick 2. Congrats to Hank and everyone with new releases. IWSG is doing wonderful things. Have fun on your four-day weekend.
ReplyDeleteWill make a note of Legion! Been busy so am behind in my TV and movie watching, although I did watch the return of The Walking Dead.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your break, Alex!
I hadn't heard of Legion. Now I must check it out! I saw LEGO Batman this weekend, and it was everything you would expect. Thank you so much for the shout-out, and yay for the IWSG! :)
ReplyDeleteCongrats on the IWSG being recognized! It's a great group for sure!!!
ReplyDeleteI've been watching the Legion commercials, looks right up my alley. I will be checking it out. We saw the first John Wick movie, and it sounds basically the same. My husband didn't like it, and now he's seeing the commercials for the 2nd one and he says, "That looks good." Hahahaa...
Congrats to all the new releases at their authors!!!!
haha and you went and beat out poor Hank today at my bay. Hank sure has fun with the #1 run.
ReplyDeleteGood to know that Legion is great, still have it to be watch. Pretty much what I expected from John Wick 2.
Thanks for the shout.
Never even heard of Soylent Green. Figures I'd miss the first as I have little clue with voices in some.
No dogs died in John Wick 2, right?????? I can't watch the beginning of the first for that reason and I'd really like to see this, but I have to be assured No. Dogs. Die.
ReplyDeleteAlso, thanks for giving my new release a shoutout. ^_^
I am adding Legion to my watch list for sure and John Wick...hmmm...I want character and plot, but I do appreciate your review. Yay for the award for IWSG! That's great news! I stink at movie trivia but I did watch Blood Father after your last review and loved it. It was sad when he died but realistic.
ReplyDeleteI'm curious about Legion and may just have to check it out. As for John Wick 2, I didn't see the first and the second sounds even less appealing. I getting tired of the violence for violence sake in movies/tv shows.
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to what IWSG has in store for all of us. A most well deserved distinction to be on the 100 list!
Congrats to one and all. I like your new feature Alex, it'll be nice to get to know other bloggers. Hello Hank! *waves*
My husband wants to see the John Wick film. It sounds like it's right up his alley. Congratulations on the IWSG group news!
ReplyDeleteMy wife and I much enjoyed Legion and will try to catch more
ReplyDeleteThe IWSG is moving up.
ReplyDeleteJohn Wick was a bit numbing.
I got 5 right and glad I guessed Soylent Green! I will pass on John Wick because the first one still brings up the image of his dead puppy and I can't stomach it even though I know it's fake. I want to watch legion and need to tape it! What channel is it on? I don't get Netflix or HBO. I am loving FaceOFF and glad it started up again. Did you watch the last one about Monster High? I liked the 2 blue ones-hahahaaa Yeti and aqua one. The wolfgirl was horrible. I'm going to do the A to Z but scared about hooking up each day but get the reason why it was tough for all of you.
ReplyDeleteI haven't been doing too well with keeping up with many TV shows or new movies. Saw Inferno the other night and thought it was a fairly lame story though some of the visuals were pretty cool.
ReplyDeleteGreat news for IWSG.

Tossing It Out
Congratulations to new authors! That list always seems to include the phenomenal and phenomenally speedy Pat Hatt.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you'll be taking a four day weekend, Alex.
Keep taking care of yourself.
Loved the first John Wick even being not a massive Keanu fan, bring on the second!
ReplyDeleteThat's a great accolade for IWSG, Alex. You should be proud. And I've bookmarked that list for further exploration...
ReplyDeleteLegion Series sounds good. John Wick, gore and guts - I guess this is the way of the world. IWSG so winning
ReplyDeleteLegion... I just didn't get it. I didn't hate it, but I had a hard time following it. I have problems with shows/movies where we're not quite sure what's real and what's not. And this suffered from that.
ReplyDeleteAll hail president's weekend. Enjoy and relax.
ReplyDeleteCongrats to IWSG world. I enjoy reading posts, etc. Very worthwhile
A guy at work saw John Wicke 2 and said it was a kill fest. I shall pass even though I like Keanu
Pretty weekend here so I was outdoors quite a bit.
Have a super week
Nothing wrong with a weekend of action films. I did find John Wick to be a bit much though.
ReplyDeleteChristine, you're welcome.
Cathrina, it is more of the same.
Pat, you're welcome. I know - funny I beat Hank today. And you've never seen Soylent Green? Worth a watch once.
Patricia - no dogs die! And you're welcome.
Erika, it was sad, but a good film.
Bish, more to come!
Birgit, you know your older movies. Legion is on FX. And yes, it was hilarious that the two guys who knew nothing about Monster High won that round.
Liz, there was a lot of that.
I'll have to DVR Legion. The boys want to see John Wick this weekend. I'll go just to see if he's still mad about the puppy. I know I would be. :)
ReplyDeleteI really liked the first Wick, so I'm wanting to see this one in the theater.
ReplyDeleteI actually watched Legion already! It was impressively good.
Enjoy your time off!
ReplyDeleteBeen watching The Expanse.
You need a break -- that is much better than a break-down right? :-) I watched LEGION its first day and have recommended it to every Sci-Fi fan I know. I didn't expect Hamlet from the sequel, having seen the first one! Congratulations for the honor!
ReplyDelete*sigh* I didn't do so well at the Trivia. I saw the first John Wick and it was just too much killing and not enough story. Very very interested in Legion. Very.
ReplyDeleteI'm very excited to see Legion (I have it DVR'd, just haven't seen it yet) and I'm also excited to shut off my brain and see John Wick. I'll admit that I like my action flicks brutal and violent.
ReplyDeleteI hope you're doing something fun with your time off. Take care.
ReplyDeleteJohn Wick: Chapter 2 is on my list of movies to see.
ReplyDeleteCongrats, IWSG! But that it's so great is a given. I'm going to have to check Legion out.
ReplyDeleteIt's great seeing IWSG get the recognition it deserves!
ReplyDeleteHello Hank! Congratulations on being featured here! I love reading poetry. I only wish I were better at writing it than I am.
So many good things happening here. Congratulations to all. Way to go.
ReplyDeleteI'm not familiar with Legion though I do like most things Marvel:)
ReplyDeleteHave a great one, Alex.
I'll be seeing John Wick 2 on Wednesday. Are you saying you thought this was more violent than the first and that you liked it less? I don't have FX, so unless it comes on Netflix, I won't be able to watch it. Sounds interesting, though. Congrats to the IWSG!
ReplyDeleteLegion sounds really good. I'll have to check it out.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on making the list.
ReplyDeleteThe movie I want to see next is the Batman Lego movie. It looks funny!
LOL - last week I thought i had a trivia question correct (VERY rare for me) - and now I see - NOPE :)
ReplyDeleteLove Face Off - one of my favourite shows!
Joanne, it is a major kill fest.
ReplyDeleteElizabeth, now he's mad about his car...
Brandon and Bryan, you will dig John Wick then.
Stephen, fun is in the plans!
Chrys, prepare for a lot of carnage.
Shannon, it was more violent and just a bit too long.
Jemi, that show is awesome!
Legion sounds interesting. It seems those darker type movies are getting more popular these days.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your long holiday weekend! And congratulations on the IWSG website being in the Top 100!
ReplyDeleteI imagine my little brother saw Legion, or is going to see it soon. He's crazy about superheroes, though our parents think he needs to find more "mature" interests at 30 years old. Lots of well-adjusted adults love superhero stories, though they're convinced that's only something for young people.
That's awesome about the IWSG website!
ReplyDeleteAlex!
ReplyDeleteCongrats on making the website list! I now know how hard you guys have been working behind the scenes.
John Wick will be right up my alley. :)
I didn't know Legion was going to be a TV show, I thought it was a movie. Now I'll have to find it. Thanks for the info.
Hi, Hank!
Enjoy your long weekend! It's been so cold here. The sidewalk is a sheet of ice! I put a ton of sand on it and now it looks like the beach!
Heather
Wowzers! Congrats on IWSG making the grade!
ReplyDeleteI haven't seen Legion. :( I'll need to search it out.
Well done on the IWSG award.
ReplyDeleteI was only able to catch about 10 minutes of Legion but was very impressed with the acting and, cinematography--the works! Sigh. So now there's another excellent series I'll get addicted to.
ReplyDeleteNice to have a review of the movies..
ReplyDeleteCongrats on the #ISWG listing on the 100 best sites for writers list! That is GREAT!
ReplyDeleteLegion sounds great. Haven't seen it yet, but looking forward to it.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations to all the authors and their new releases. Haven't seen Legion yet. I do enjoy action films. Loved the Bourne series and the Mission Impossible etc. Not crazy about the higher death counts. Can feel myself becoming unaffected after awhile. Indifferent. Finally got to see Impossible. Wow, that was quite the movie. Intense. For some strange reason, it reminds me of David.
ReplyDeleteHappy Valentines to you and your wife, Alex:) Enjoy the day.
ReplyDeleteMy dad sent me a book on the science behind Game of Thrones. I can't wait to read it.
ReplyDeleteLegion sounds awesome; will have to check it out.
ReplyDeleteI'm going to see John Wick simply because I can, and then I'll complain about it.
I never would have figured out Soylent Green without going to IMDB.
It was nice to meet Hank Kaykuala.
See you in March.
I'll admit that I hadn't even heard of Legion before this. But it does sound interesting, so I'll have to check it out this week. Thanks for the heads-up.
ReplyDeleteI was hooked on Legion in the first ten minutes. Can't wait for the next episode.
ReplyDeleteGreat post. Enjoyed the new author feature. Very cool.
ReplyDeleteJuneta @ Writer's Gambit
50 people shot in the head? No thanks.
ReplyDeleteHave a great long weekend!
Congrats on the honors for IWSG! I'm excited to see what's coming next. This group has become far more than a blog hop. Congratulations on all that you do, Alex!
ReplyDeleteYou've shepherded the IWSG a long way, Alex! Congratulations! And enjoy that long and well-deserved weekend!
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to read Patricia's book! And I'm so glad you're featuring bloggers we might not have met. I'm always looking for new blogs to read.
ReplyDeleteAlso, congrats to IWSG for making that list. That's awesome!
Enjoy your break, Alex. Thanks for the promos. Looking forward to reading the vampire tale. And congrats to IWSG for making the Best 100 list. Good work! Great site!
ReplyDeleteCarrie-Anne, you tell them this fifty-something still digs them! Superheroes are for all ages.
ReplyDeleteHeather, I wouldn't recommend laying out to get a tan. And John Wick is Blood and Carnage. But no Boobs. Bummer.
Helena, so many great shows, so little time...
Joylene, still haven't seen that one. And John Wick will make you numb then.
Tamara, cool!
Toi, that made me chuckle.
Patricia, I can't either!
Jennifer, more like two hundred.
Tyrean, thanks, and it's way beyond my imagination.
Stephanie, I'm going to do my best to do just that.
Sounds like a TV programme I would enjoy. As you know, I don't watch the box all that much.
ReplyDeleteI think the upward moves of IWSG are wonderful to follow and congratulations to you Alex. Hope it continues to upswing.
My mom and brother Love Legion! Maybe I should start watching!
ReplyDeleteI want to like John Wick...but it just doesn't do it for me.
ReplyDeleteHappy Valentine's Day, buddy!
First off, congrats on the recognition of the IWSG.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad to hear that you really liked Legion. I couldn't agree more. It was so good that I watched the premier twice! To me, it was the best premier episode I've ever seen.
Congrats on the recognition for ISWG! from a fan of the anthos and NLs.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your break!
That's great news about making the Top 100 list! Looking forward to hearing what the IWSG plans and happenings are. Enjoy your break.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations Alex for IWSG making it to The Write Life’s 100 Best Websites for Writers for 2017! Proud of IWSG for this feat in such a short time.
ReplyDeleteIt's great that IWSG is getting some well deserved recognition.
ReplyDeleteI've been reading IWSG blogs for years now. I also see the Facebook page sometimes. I must check it out a little more. It's a large group for sure. Some of my writing friends are in there.
ReplyDeleteWoo Hoo IWSG. Making the top 100 list is impressive. Thanks to everyone who works so hard for our group.
ReplyDeleteI'll have to catch up on Legion tonight. I think even the hubby would like it. I do like my action movies violent, lol. But it can get too much. I can't wait to see John Wick II. I do love the Face Off show. Watching them make up the models is fascinating.
ReplyDeleteNice to meet you Hank. And congrats to all the others with book releases.
Have a good weekend Alex. So cool about the IWSG site ratings. We do rock!!
Okay. Now I have to watch Legion. Have a great weekend Alex!
ReplyDeleteCherdo, not sure it did it for me.
ReplyDeletePat, agreed!!
Maria, please join us.
Donna, yes we do!
Thanks everyone!
Yay! for IWSG, it is one of the best!!!
ReplyDeleteI guess I'm gonna have to go look up John Wick. EVERYONE seems to be talking about the second movie and I never even heard about the first one when it came out.
ReplyDeleteGood for you, Alex, for starting a special writer feature!
ReplyDeleteNice to meet you, Hank:)
Enjoy the break. I'm seriously behind in my movie watching, although I think John Wick but be a big much for my taste.
ReplyDeleteRobert, if you like excessive violence, you'll enjoy it.
ReplyDeleteSandra, your feature gave me the idea.
I never saw Oblivion. We were in Dublin though when Tom Cruise came to see it. People were climbing up trees just to be able to see him. It was crazy! Thanks for the movie reviews too. I'm not a fan of violent movies, but I do like action.
ReplyDeleteI didn't know Legion was from Noah Hawley. I LOVE Fargo. Will have to check that out. Nice to meet Hank!
ReplyDeleteCongrats to the IWSG making the list! That is exciting. :)
ReplyDeletePS Congrats for making the top 100 list!
ReplyDeleteHi :) Love, cat.
ReplyDeleteYou sold me on Legion. I'll have to check it out. Enjoy your long weekend, Alex!
ReplyDeleteThat new Marvel series sounds awesome! We might get it here after a year or so. Crossing my fingers.
ReplyDeleteI'm always impressed by poets. Yay for Hank!
Congrats to Pat, Christine, and Patricia on their new releases!
Enjoy your 4-day weekend.
ReplyDeleteI've heard great things about Legion. I need to break down and put it on my list. :)
ReplyDeleteI haven't seen any movies lately. We have been getting a lot of snow- but I am hoping to make it to the movies during the long weekend. :) No snow in the forecast!
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your 4 day weekend!
~Jess
I figured the John Wick movie would be like that. Hollywood loves their guns. I intend to watch Legion. Need to do some catching up.
ReplyDeleteGood to hear that Legion's worth watching - I've grown leery of Fox's work with the X-Men after the last two movies, and I thought a new TV show might just be a cash/rights grab. But if it's good, I've got no problem with that. ^_^
ReplyDeleteAnd congrats on making that writing list! More people learning of the awesome that is IWSG is definitely a good thing.
Congrats IWSG!
ReplyDeleteIt's my first time hearing about Legion (we got rid of cable and now using Roku). Will try to watch this and another Marvel comic adapted series coming to Netflix next month, Iron Fist.
Haven't seen it myself, but I've noticed a lot of people praising Legion lately. Definitely sounds like a show that exceeds expectations!
ReplyDeleteIs Legion a cable series? Sounds like something hubby would like.
ReplyDeleteCongrats to Pat!
Many congrats to Pat, Christine and Patricia:)
ReplyDeleteWishing you and your wife a warm, colorful day, Alex.
I'm very curious about Legion! And my husband will love all the point blank in John Wick, lol!
ReplyDeleteCongrats on the IWSG mention! Well deserved, and I completely agree. You've created an amazing community for all kinds of writers.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your holiday!
Aw, man, I forgot to watch Legion! I'll have to catch up and set it to record tonight. It's very rare we watch anything on time anymore in our house.
ReplyDeleteI couldn't watch Daredevil because of all the violence, either. Guess I won't be watching John Wick 2. :(
Congratulations, IWSG!
Congratulations on the IWSG was listed under Writing Communities for The Write Life’s 100 Best Websites for Writers for 2017!
ReplyDeleteNice to meet Hank. I'll check out his book.
ReplyDeleteWe have been curious about Legion, not sure. But I think we can start putting it on automatic record.
John Wick 1 was a heck of a film. Keanu Reeves dry delivery is superb, and after a while, violence is normal. My husband went to see 2, loved it. The idea of a marker is great.
Enjoy your time away. We'll leave the light on for ya.
ReplyDeleteWe tried watching the new Legion series. My wife dropped out after the first 30 minutes of the first episode, and I made it to the end of the second episode. No, I don't think there will be a third for me. For it is so painfully slow in developing a plot, and there are too many flashbacks/forwards for my feeble mind to keep account of.
ReplyDeleteBy the way, can we display the header for WSG on SiteHoundSniffs? I do not remember if I have already asked you about it or not.
On John Wick: I just don't get why anyone wants brutal and violent.
ReplyDeleteHope you're having a great day:)
Feels like the IWSG is about to explode! In a positive way, of course...
ReplyDeleteLegion sounds interesting, although I'm not sure about the adult content...I guess as long as it's not much worse than Daredevil, I love the story and subplots of that show (I just have to turn away from the screen a few times).
ReplyDeleteCongrats to IWSG on making that list! I'm looking forward to hearing about the new things coming up this year.
I hope you have enjoyed your time off!
Great interview from Hank. And I love Patricia's Abducted Life cover. =-)
ReplyDeletehttp://emilyanngirdner.com/blog/
Julie, you need to watch it.
ReplyDeleteLibby, watch it.
Mason, it's dark - they did it right.
Donna, it's on FX.
Deb, you definitely want to avoid John Wick then.
Jerry, so you didn't like it. Thought the third episode was brilliant. And yes, you can display it.
Sandra, it's not for everyone.
Elizabeth, same level of adult content just not as violent.
Sorry everyone, been playing catch up with everything else this week since I was gone!
Congrats on making the list! That is awesome. Just to show, hard work does pay off. Enjoy your well deserved time off.
ReplyDeleteThank you so very much for giving permission. You can see your linked header under All, Lirwerary and the United States. If you could say something (preferably good) about SiteHoundSniffs.com here and there, we would greatly appreciate it.
ReplyDeleteOkay, you talked me into giving Legion a third try. Now, if you ears start burning next, know that your definition of brilliant is quite different than mine. (LOL?)
Hi Alex!
ReplyDeleteI love your new Special Writer Feature. What a great way to meet new people we might never have known about. Great idea.
Hubby is going to see John Wick this afternoon. My youngest and I saw Fist Fight last week and we saw Split before that. Next up for us: Get Out.
Looking forward to IWSG next week.
Alex I tried to send you an email, but it was returned stating your mailbox is too full.
ReplyDeleteCool, thanks for the review on Legion. I wasn't going to watch it, but now I think I am:)
ReplyDeleteHope you and Mrs. Alex have a great weekend.
ReplyDeleteof course IWSG is a top 100 writer site! that was an easy one!
ReplyDeleteI had to turn off the first John Wick when they killed his puppy. I finished it a couple months later.
Doubt I'd stomach the second. LEGO BATMAN is more my speed - 2 thumbs up!
BTW, my son demonstrated this SIRI response to "Hey 'Puter" and "Hey Computer" - try it, it's hilarious!
happy prez wknd... week... see you on IWSG day!
Legion sounds so good.... not sure I've seen it out here in Australia yet... or i missed it. Will have to check it out. I did watch Moana recently which I loved haha
ReplyDeleteHappy Monday, Alex. Hope you're having a good one:)
ReplyDeleteLegion looks interesting, but perhaps more dramatic than my typical viewing. My husband said he wants to watch John Wick 2, but we'll likely wait until it's out on DVD. Woot woot for IWSG making the top 100!!
ReplyDeleteI may disappear at times, but I worry when you do! I hope all is well with you and your loved ones, Alex. Aloha from the Apple Store on Waikiki. Somehow I will get a post up for IWSG, even if I have to camp out in the Apple Store to do it. LOL
ReplyDeleteHi Alex,
ReplyDeleteHope your day is productive and pleasant.
See you tomorrow.
Hope you had a great weekend. I love the first picture. Kinda cool.
ReplyDeleteI had mixed feelings on Legion... The first episode was great, but then like halfway through the third episode I totally lost interest. :/ Taboo, on the other hand, is brilliant.
ReplyDeleteGreat to see the recognition for IWSG! See you tomorrow. :)
ReplyDeleteIt felt like watching a video game or Rambo 4.... I did like the car, though.
ReplyDeleteHadn't even heard of Legion, but now I want to see it! Not planning on seeing the other one. Congrats on the IWSG ranking!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on #IWSG being honored, Alex! I had to laugh at your Hugh Jackman comment. I hear Patrick Stewart is ending his association with this franchise as well. Jeepers! I just saw I'm part of the Ninja Army! I'm so excited. In today's post, I revealed my plans for #A-to-Z!
ReplyDeleteSo good to be a part of this team! I got on the #rantonTrump wagon for a while and just said "STOP". It was neither fun, nor really edifying, so I'm going back to what I do best. Observe and write about what I see. What I don't see, I make up. It makes my posts funner that way, and I make sure no one gets hurt!
