3 body problem is not bad. Looking into getting into the books. 

 

The books were...good.  But I had trouble getting in to them.  I think there was either a culture gap or a translation gap, since they're Chinese.

Is the science good ?

It is quantum, as I recall.

Just got through season 1 of Will Trent. Pretty good show so far.

On the show it’s garbage.  Fun.  But garbage.

I like the idea of dehydrating until things get better.  Think I will until the bills draft a wide receiver .

But is it epic quantum?

I found Three Body Problem to be really unusual, in that having read the books first, truly improved the watching experience for me.

 

I love the story, but it’s a quite difficult story to tell. Having a bit of fore-knowledge likely made it more enjoyable for me.

Watching 1984'sThe Bounty.  Pretty sure everyone's aware it stars two Oscar Winners: Anthony Hopkins and Mel Gibson.

 

I did not realize, though, that it also had Lawrence Olivier in a cameo, and included Daniel Day-Lewis and Liam Neeson in supporting roles.  That's four Oscar Winners and one nominee.  Pretty good cast.

 

And coincidentally, three of them were nominated for best actor Oscars in 1994 (Hopkins for The Remains of the Day, Day-Lewis for In the Name of the Father, and Neeson for Schindler's List.)  All lost to Tom Hanks for Philadelphia.  

 

Also would have been Neeson's fifth credited feature film role (and here's a real blast from the '80s past: his fourth was Krull).  And Day-Lewis's second (his first was Gandhi - safe to say that Day-Lewis has had a hell of a career.)

So they've got whoever those guys are from the Loki series, at least one sorcerer (looks like The Ancient One) from Doctor Strange...and is that Ant Man in there too?

 

God, I hate multiverses.  Excuses for lazy writing.  At least it looks like it'll have an "R" rating.
