You finish that one yet? So well done. The score, cinematography, the acting, filmed on 3 continents in like 5-6 countries, with 3 intertwining stories they tied together pretty well. Pretty epic in scale, tbh.

Yeah it was great. Epic is definitely the right word. I can't imagine the budget for that thing. I didn't even really hear about it til you mentioned it here. Maybe saw it pimped on Prime, but I was "drug cartel show"-ed out, so probably wouldn't have watched it otherwise. But, this was a lot more than just that.


Yeah, the wild part is that it is largely an original screenplay. It is very loosely based on a true crime novel about the international drug trade that written by the Italian journalist who wrote Gomorrah. Wild stuff.

Oh man, what a crazy series. Just finished it on Thursday.

Have been watching this show again to see how it holds up, on the “Scream” parody episode. This scene will never not kill me.

Ohhhh shiiit.







This is the sort of stuff Dream Theater lacked when Portnoy left. Mangini seems like a good guy and he is definitely an amazing drummer in his own right, but it was never the same.

Props to Tony Levin also for rocking a beanie, tucking his shirt into his jeans and still bossing on his chapman stick.

Album drops next week I think.

I've been also listening to a heap of an Australian band called sleepsmakeswaves recently. Definitely worth checking out.

Honestly, tempted to give DMX his own thread. He was EVERYWHERE for a good 6-7 years, and I’d say 75% of this board is a fan.

I wasn’t his biggest fan overall, but Ruff Ryder Anthem will always be on my workout playlist.

No disrespect to DMX intended, but Mystikal is on that list.

You might can put M.O.P. on that list as a group. Onyx too.
