Ah sorry, I thought this was a movie series. TV shows makes more sense.

Are you only looking direct download source?

There were 33 smurf movies within a period of 8 years, am I getting this right?

I prefer full seasons releases, but weekly can be OK is some cases.

Also depends how much I like the show. I generally only tolerate weekly if I am big fan, otherwise I just wait till the full season is released.

He is an American oligarch, bad faith and dishonesty are to be expected in everything they say or do.

I love the spaced out, slightly psychedelic 90s jungle/DNB.

From the article:

However, there could be a fairly simple explanation there: Morpheus dies in the MMO game The Matrix Online. That specific event in the game is considered canon because the writer-directors, the Wachowskis, gave their approval to the game.

They are developing a new matrix movie?

I watched The Matrix Resurrections at home and I gave up halfway through, still haven't finished it. There were some cool scenes in the early part of the movie that were almost breaking the fourth wall and seemed to pick up the spirit of the introductory scenes in The Matrix (I wish those cyberpunk/dystopian elements were expanded in the original), but Resurrections quickly started to go down the drain after that.

  • Zone 39 (1996) - Cool low budget Australian cyberpunk-adjacent movie

  • Nirvana (1997) - Excellent Italian cyberpunk thriller

  • Shocking Dark (1989) - 80s Italian ripoff of two famous scifi/action movies from the time

  • Webmaster / Skyygen (1998) - Solid Danish 90s style cyberpunk thriller

  • Neon City (1991) - Solid post-apocalyptic flick

  • Cold Harvest (1999) - Kungfu flick with a post-apocalyptic setting

  • Def-Con 4 (1985) - Post-apocalyptic action/adventure

  • Black Mountain Side (2014) - Isolated norther research station horror

  • Butterfly Kisses (2018) - A somewhat novel take on the found footage genre, has flaws though

  • The Last Winter (2006) - Norther isolated research station horror

I thought it was ok for what it was. But then again, I like b-movies and especially mystical horror b-movies.

Super sad. As someone of mixed euro-south asian background (although I identify more with the euro side of my background), I had a mad crush for Gwen Stefani in the 90s/2000s. She had an Indian boyfriend and wore the bindi in her video clips (as a hot blonde).

And their music from the time is really fucking good. Tragic Kingdom and to a lesser extent Return Of Saturn have only gotten better with age. Stefani's early solo stuff is solid too, not even close to Tragic Kingdom, but that's a big mountain to cross.

EDIT: Watched the Twitter video with Stefani, it looks like a parody. I have no issue with Lent or religiosity, but American-style Christianity is clearly fake. I say this as an atheist, but one that has read the Bible multiple times, both independently and as part of college courses.

Bu that's not it. The video/music in "Sunday Morning" is fun and full of optimist. You have the upbeat ska-rock, the 90s style slapstick video direction.

And then you watch the Twitter video with Stefani shilling "the incredible 40 day [religious app] challenge" and immediately what comes to mind is "Fuck this!!!!"

This is a super good track.

 

Music starts at around 1:30.
