Dear old Netflix..
How many of us have spent entire days just laying off watching one chapter after another endlessly when we get really hooked up to an amazing serie. What about the super tasteful popcorns we've eaten watching these spectacular movies. Or, in some other cases, a discrete Netflix and chill if you know what I mean.
The fact is I'm bringing a couple of recommendations for you to kill your spare time with some series/movies worthy of your time. Every one of the series I'm going to be listing above, I've seen them myself, so feel free to leave a comment if you've already seen it, and maybe we could chat a little while about it. :)
Vikings
quoted from Wikipedia:
Vikings is a historical drama television series written and created by Michael Hirst for the History channel. Filmed in Ireland, it premiered on March 3, 2013 in Canada.
Vikings is inspired by the sagas of Viking Ragnar Lothbrok, one of the best-known legendary Norse heroes and notorious as the scourge of England and France. The show portrays Ragnar as a farmer who rises to fame by successful raids into England, and eventually becomes a Scandinavian king, with the support of his family and fellow warriors.
The series has already submitted season n°6, but you'll be able to watch till n°4 on Netflix only. The only way to watch the remaining seasons is through internet, or the History Channel itself. The exclusive arrangement cuts Netflix out from the equation from ever being able to stream the show.
Lucifer
One of my latest discoveries, and nothing to complain about.
The series focuses on Lucifer Morningstar, the Devil, who is bored and unhappy as the Lord of Hell. He resigns his throne and abandons his kingdom for Los Angeles, where he ends up running his nightclub "Lux". He becomes involved in a murder case with Detective Chloe Decker, and is subsequently invited to be a consultant to the LAPD.
On February 13, 2017, Fox renewed the series for a third season, which premiered on October 2, 2017, and consisted of 24 episodes. On May 11, 2018, Fox canceled the series after three seasons.
Such a pity.
Stranger things
This is a good one, due to being a Netflix original production, it's completely available in the platform. Definitely a must see.
Stranger Things is set in the fictional rural town of Hawkins, Indiana, during the early 1980s. The nearby Hawkins National Laboratory ostensibly performs scientific research for the United States Department of Energy, but secretly does experiments into the paranormal and supernatural, including those that involve human test subjects. Inadvertently, they have created a portal to an alternate dimension called "the Upside Down". The influence of the Upside Down starts to affect the unknowing residents of Hawkins in calamitous ways.
Big Mouth
The name of it is kind of intuitive, but the serie is quite the opposite. It's like a newer version of South Park.
The series follows 7th grade best friends Nick Birch and Andrew Glouberman as they navigate their way through puberty, masturbation, and sexual arousal. Acting as sex-based shoulder angels are the hormone monsters; Maurice (who pesters Andrew and occasionally Nick and Jay, and strongly resembles Pan), and Connie (who pesters Jessi and occasionally Missy). Throughout the series, the kids interact with people and objects who are personified in one way or another and offer helpful, albeit confusing, advice in their puberty-filled lives including the ghost of Duke Ellington, a French accented Statue of Liberty, a pillow capable of getting pregnant, and even Jessi's own vagina.
Wow dude, what a delightful description.
iZombie
At first I thought I wouldn't like it because of its name yeah, don't judge a book by its cover, blah blah blah.. But I ended up loving it, I watched the entire film in less than a month.
Seattle medical resident Olivia "Liv" Moore is turned into a zombie while attending a boat party. She abandons her career and breaks up with her fiancé, much to the disappointment and puzzlement of her family. She discovers that if she does not periodically satisfy her new appetite for brains, she starts turning into a stereotypical zombie, stupid and homicidal. Instead of feeding by killing innocent people, Liv decides to take a job at the King County morgue and eat the brains of the corpses she autopsies.
The amazing part of it, is that every brain she eats, she gets visions of the person it belonged to, and due to she being a forense at the morgue, mostly all the brains she eats are product of a violent dead, so she helps to solve the cases. Definitely a must see.
That'll be it for this entry..
I'm out of popcorn and soda, so I'll leave it up to five recommendations, so you guys don't overwhelm. As a disclaimer, they're not sorted in any other way, it's just how they came up to my mind. All of them are good and have their ups and downs, figure them out yourself.
More recommendations will follow, as I'm an avid consumer of this platform.
Until then, keep you seats warm and your belly filled, the actual movie is rolling. (I'm talking about life, it's a metaphor, you know.. forget it)
