5/6

Not really a movie, but when one of your favourite directors makes a TV pilot that looks like is never going to happen, what’re you gonna do?

Make it happen, Bezos!

That’s pretty funny. Also, lots of fancy camera work I hadn’t expected anybody did this early.

Trailer Park Boys: Don’t Legalize It [2014]

3/7

After seven great seasons, a number of cool movies and a substantial hiatus they felt it’d be a good idea to pick up the pieces. I’m not so sure it was. Maybe I’ll take the hint and bail.

In one way this is only the second time we’ve found a remake that was better than the original. In another way, it isn’t really a remake, but rather another adaptation of the same stage play. No matter. I’m letting it count.
