OT: Torque's New Years Resolution
To watch all the programs on Netflix that interest me over the next few months (mostly documentaries), and then cancel my subscription.
Reason: I am so done with their bullshit agenda-pushing, bait-and-switch garbage shows. Just not worth it anymore.
<snip> These days, I'm starting to think if it doesn't have Tom Cruise and isn't directed by James Cameron it's a 50-50 gamble it will suck. On streaming the odds are worse in favour of it sucking.
I beg to disagree...Ridley Scott is just as good as a director, but as far as commercial succes-yes, maybe a bit more patchy.
Scotts movies that i liked: Alien (the original one), Black rain (M. Douglas), Gladiator (with Russel Crowe), The Martian (with M. Dimon).
Albeit, he is 85 and started making "historical" movies, although
Napoleon could be good.
