Oh God is it Fri.......oh yes it is. I really didn't want to get out of bed this morning. I woke up half an hour before my alarm too so yeah, 3 am. Oh I won $11 on Lotto so there's that.

I watched the first "The Accountant" movie last night because there's a second one out. I had watched it about 7 years ago but didn't recall much at all. Mind you I was smoking a lot back then which does nothing for memory.

I fully recommend a British movie called "Deep Cover" that I watched on Wednesday night. Some actual LOL moments. I'm from Manchester in England so hearing the actor doing his Manchester hardman impression was wonderful.

Is it Fri.......oops yes it is.

FriYAY ftw!!!! And I'll have to sus deep cover, not even heard of it till now!!

Orlando Bloom is the actor that does the Hardman impressions. He comes out with some wonderful random shit and I found it hilarious. Of course comedy is a tricky one to recommend as we all have different tastes. But I actually laughed out loud a few times. Sean Bean is in it too, and he actually is a hard man in it. Silly fun. ( Not American silly )

I have watched some comedies due to suggestions by Americans on Reddit, and I have been woefully disappointed.

Have you watched "Tucker and Dale vs Evil"? One of the VERY few films that I have watched three times.

Oh yeah love Tucker and Dale!!! And I'm with you, a lot of what the yanks find funny is def not my cup of tea. Does Sean beans character die, as is tradition at this point?

Glad we're on the same page regarding humour, or lack of it.

As for Seen Been, I'm not going to spoil a thing.........

All available on Plex!

[–] DiaDeLosMuertos@aussie.zone 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Can anybody use Plex ? Like if I told a friend about it could he just jump in or is it like invite only type of thing ?

[–] trk@aussie.zone 2 points 1 month ago

Anyone can use Plex (the software), it's the specific servers that are invite only.

Plex themselves do offer some services but it's the private servers that offer the best content.

I believe you can do watch parties where you and other friends have a movie / TV show play in sync, even if there on different servers which is cool. Never tried it, on account of having never friends nor the inclination to chat through a movie... But the technical side of things is neat!

I'm happy to invite you / some others to my server, it's got plenty of spare capacity.
