Embarrassingly enough = The Wizard of Oz,

What is wrong with Wizard of Oz? It features a Khajiit after all.

The Cowardly Khajiit

Babylon 5 was Awesome.


This is an Irrefutable Fact.

I am watching Spies Above, an old documentary about the early history of spy planes and satellites. As much as I adore Gillian Anderson, her dry delivery is a bit dull. But the meat of the documentary makes up for it.

It is very cool stuff, especially the classified projects that took place right under everyone's noses, without anyone having an idea. The very first spy satellite project was Corona. Since the missiles you need to get something in orbit are too big to keep secret, it went under the cover of the Discoverer space program, and they said it was putting animals like chimps in orbit and doing scientific research. But in reality it was taking pictures of the Soviet Union. Hundreds of people worked on Discoverer, and the entire world knew about it. But only a handful of people knew the truth.

My intention to work my way through Babylon 5 has been scuppered, because I got season 4 part 1 of Vikings, so I'm gonna work my way through the whole lot to get to the new ones

I finished with Season Three of Penny Dreadful tonight. The ending was very anti-climatic. Most of the last season was. It had a two really high points: Ethan's final showdown with his father, and a flashback episode of Vanessa's time in the asylum - where we learn the The Creature was the orderly who attended to her back when he was still alive. The rest of the season falls rather flat though.

In other news I am in the midst of Season 8 of X-Files. So I am getting near the end. I started watching The Lone Gunmen again, since it's one season aired at the same time as Season 8 of X-Files. I still adore this show. It is so much fun! I wish it has not been cancelled.

I'm watching Hero.

I love this film, for so many reasons, but this time I'm watching it in english, and it just sounds worse

Yeah, don't watch it in English. Lol
Khajiit likes hearing it in Chinese!


Vikings started back this week! While not the best show technically, Khajiit has enjoyed following it over the past few years and is glad it's back on.




Yes! Khajiit felt that about halfway through the season the crew got word it was ending and decided just to rush the rest of the episodes. It was very confusing after the first four or so episodes (including the insanely good asylum episode "A Blade of Grass".) started the season off really well, IMO. This one thought the ending was a ridiculous (not sure if Ethan reloaded his gun at all during the "final" showdown with the vampires) and rushed mess. It was so bad in Khajiit's opinion that he wrote his own brief ending for the show that he loved so much. Very disappointing.

Lol, School of Rock is on tv. Such a fun movie!

Just watched some of House of Flying Daggers. I love how at the end !

Yet another damn good film!

Khajiit has good film taste, what can he say? Lol

I loved how no one was what they appeared to be in House of Flying Daggers.


I started watching season 3 of Black Sails. I just finished the fourth episode, and I am having a good time with it. Ray Stevenson is Blackbeard! He is one of my favorite actors, so it is great seeing him in something again.

Khajiit likes this show. The intro is kickass!

This

Always worth a watch. I tried finding the Watts are Volts skit from Who Done It?, but it's isn't on YT. :/

I am feeling Bourne Again.

On TV: Local News.
On Computer: HCBailly's LP of Chrono Trigger.

I finished Jason Bourne. It was ok, but not great. It is just a bit too much of the same old, same old to really stand out. I did not even recognize Alicia Vikander with dark hair.

I also finished Season Three of Black Sails. That was really good. I was struck by how Jack Rackham is stepping up. He's somehow found his courage. But John Silver is the real up and comer here. Now we can really see the villain from Treasure Island taking shape in front of us. He even finally get's his nickname of "Long John."

But as always, it is Flint who shines the most. His rage, his despair. He is truly a man larger than life. He strides across the Caribbean like a dark and terrible god. Woe betide anyone who crosses him, or befriends him. He is a living embodiment of chaos and murder. Damn, Toby Stephens plays him well.
