Sunday Post #478




A pretty quiet week. I binged Deadwind and loved the newest Andor. Anyone watching? Also One Of Us Is Lying season two. I have walking tours this week also. Unfortunately this streamer has disabled playback on other sites so it says to watch on Youtube- which I normally do anyway and assume most viewers would, rather than watch it on here. I just post them to link people to their site and spread the word, but they're worth checking out- specially that second one as it's an island and that parkland is awesome. 

 In other news I came across a Reddit board that caught my eye this week. You can find that here. The only way I can describe it is like when you're driving alone at night. I used to feel that way in college when I'd drive back and forth listening to Pink Floyd. There's a lyric on their Wish You Were Here album - Nobody knows where you are- that always struck me, especially when I was on the highway in the middle of the night. See the video below too for another way of looking at it.

PULP COVER OF THE WEEK: 

56 comments:

  1. I have to admit, I like the cover for the Special Edition that came out a couple of years ago for Dune. But that Jaws montage one made me chuckle :-D

  2. I think I could enjoy Goodnight Dune. That's awesome! So odd not to allow embedding a video considering it points to the source. Hmmm

  3. I still need to check out the first season of One Of Us Is Lying. I'm really bad at keeping up with shows and movies!

  4. My favorite one of these is Goodnight Dune, lol. I also love the second one with its homage to Jaws. :D I've said this before ... I'm so sad you're not a fan as it's my all-time favorite book. I know I'm alone in that, though. Even my book club didn't appreciate it as much as I hoped, lol.

    1. Did you remove the Dune covers? They were there and now they're not.

  5. I have seen the movie. It can be really frightening as it would have been a common experience shared by many. The Autumn music is fantastic so soothing

  9. So, A dame Called Murder is the first in Saber's series Max Keene. Such a cook cover. Thanks for the autumn music too. Such an interesting post. I have been watching Unstoppable High Kick, an old Korean Comedy...along with a mystery or two. Hope you are having a good weekend. Thanks for your comments!

  11. Hey Greg! It's nice to see your blog is still going :D I hope you've been keeping well. It's changed quite a bit since I last visited (it's been quite a few years since I visited the blogosphere lmao).
    Yes, the first Dune cover looks so cute! I had to take a double take at the Jaws version - made me chuckle.
    Take care x

  12. I love all these Dune covers - especially the one that looks like the Jaws cover. I hope you have a great week Greg!

  13. Ciao, mi piace la prima copertina di Dune. Buon sabato sera.

    ReplyDelete
  14. I loooved OOUIL! The first episodes were a tiny but slow but by the end I was hooked. And the Christmas episode, whichever one that was, I cried basically the whole time even though I knew they would be fine hah.

    ReplyDelete
  15. I loved in a rural area as a teen and driving at night was an experience. Especially when there were no lights, cars etc.

    ReplyDelete
  16. No Dune covers for me to see tonight. :( But, I love the "dame" called murder. A dame - how retro :) Have a great week.

  18. I need to get back into Andor. I left off on Episode 4 or 5.

    I watched two episodes of The English last night.

    ReplyDelete
  19. I didn’t realise Season 2 of One of Us Is Lying was out, I’m sure my daughter and I will be watching it soon.

    Wishing you a great reading week

  21. Oh, bring back the Dune covers; I missed them! 😯

    I haven't listened to Pink Floyd in looooooong time. I'll have to listen to them next time I walk. ☺

    Have a wonderful week. ☀

  22. Love that Autumn Jazz Coffeeshop. Happy Sunday, Greg! :)

    ReplyDelete
  23. Love the cover of A Dame Called Murder. Those type of covers are my favorite. The remind me of classic movies. Hope you have a great week!

    ReplyDelete
  24. Either Google/Blogger is screwing again with us or some of the copyright owners turned off their permission the linked videos concerned. I can´t open them... Anyway. I hope you had a great weekend and will have a wonderful new week ahead. Happy reading, Greg!

  25. I'm sad that I just can't get into Andor. I'm one of those few people that loved Rogue One so I was looking forward to the series but I'm totally bored by it. My husband doesn't love it either but he's sticking with it until the end so I guess that means I am too lol

  28. Thanks for the YouTube links, I like that second one and the coffee shop ambience is so soothing. I need to watch Andor. And cool Dune covers, I like that second one best. Enjoy your week!

    ReplyDelete
  29. Oooh I love the autumn jazz ambience. I sometimes stream things like that while I'm reading. This is perfect for that. I'll have to look it up on the Roku next time I read. Thanks! :-)

    ReplyDelete
  30. They are great covers. I don't get to watch much TV these days, maybe one day soon.

    Have a great week ahead!

  31. I still have a set of Dune paperbacks I read like 40 years ago or something. Probably time for a reread since I don't remember too much.

  32. I'm currently watching One of Us is Lying season one. I think the show is overall ok, though I don't think I've been loving teen dramas as much as I used to. I think the actor who plays Nate is super talented though!

    ReplyDelete
  33. One of Us is Lying has been on my To-Watch list for a while. I haven't been watching much TV lately (only because I live in a house with 4 people and 2 TVs...) Maybe I'll have to wrestle the remote away to watch it. - Melinda @ A Web of Stories

  34. Thanks for the common experience that helped you be sympathetic over the car incident. Yes embarrassing for sure. Enjoy your viewing and reading.

    ReplyDelete
  35. Love the ambiance videos! I have One of Us Was Lying on my TBR but am not sure that it was a movie as well. I hope you have a wonderful week!

    ReplyDelete
  36. Those ambience videos are always so fun. I swear Reddit can be like a rabbit hole though. Glad you are enjoying One of Us is Lying.

    ReplyDelete
  37. I've fallen behind on so many shows, just can't seem to find the time!

    ReplyDelete
  38. Hi Greg!

    I haven't watched a lot of tv at all lately, but I REALLY want to read One of us is lying before I watch the series.

    Love the pulp cover as always!

    So sorry I've been a bit quiet, gosh - life is crazy!

    ReplyDelete
  39. Even after watching the video, I have no idea what the night feeling is. I guess I'm not introspective enough. Come see my week here. Happy reading!

    ReplyDelete
  40. I really like the cover for A Dame Called Murder. Have a great week!

    ReplyDelete

  45. I was pretty bored with the first few episodes of Andor but ever since the prison things got pretty good! Hope to catch up with more episodes this week.

    ReplyDelete
  46. That's funny, I just responded to your comment on my post about late night highway driving to say I did it a lot in college, and then I come here and see you say you also did in college lol. Glad your enjoying the shows!

    ReplyDelete
  47. I didn't have a car in college, so didn't drive myself back and forth, but I do remember putting Pink Floyd (Dark Side of the Moon, I think) on the stereo a lot in college!

    ReplyDelete
  48. Wow that jazz piano is so nice. What song is that? I like jazz like that. It makes me think of the being in front of the fireplace reading!

    ReplyDelete
  49. I haven't started watching Andor yet, but I really want to. I saw a trailer and it looked so good!

    ReplyDelete
