Welcome to the weekly roundup post! What are you watching this week? What are you excited about?

I have really enjoyed Rooster, so far. A typical Bill Lawrence comedy. I also watched some Phantom Lawyer and Deadloch S2. <3

Watched several movies:
- The Bride: Surprisingly, I liked it. (But I wouldn't recommend it to anyone who's not a real niche movie watcher.)
- Project Hail Mary: Maybe a bit overlong, but all in all, a good movie.
- Sinners: An experience to watch in the cinema!

Looking forward to: Something Very Bad Is Going To Happen

Questions

I've a few questions on the films?

The Bride - which niche? Because I can do niche - but not all niches.

Project Hail Mary - can you watch if you are an arachnophobic? (Fear of spiders).

**
I wish I'd seen Sinners in the theater with surround sound. That film's best qualities are its score and cinematography - it really has amazing cinematography. I do have a 55 inch television screen - but still.

Question on The Rooster:
What other comedies has Bill Lawrence done? Trying to figure out if I'd like Rooster or not? Steve Carroll comedies are often hit or miss for me. (ie. Is it witty or slapstick? Is it embarrassment/humilation humor or absurd humor?)

What other comedies has Bill Lawrence done?

Scrubs, Shrinking, Ted Lasso, Cougar Town, Bad Monkey, Spin City would be the best known, probably.

(ie. Is it witty or slapstick? Is it embarrassment/humilation humor or absurd humor?)

The Guardian described it as "blissfully awkward".

Thanks. Doesn't sound like my thing. I liked Ted Lasso and Spin City but not so much the others...

You inspired me to give it a try -- we really enjoyed the first two eps. :D

Phantom Lawyer is already on my list, along with Deadloch s2. :D
