Thread: Amazon Video

  1. #1

    Amazon Video

    Following on from the Netflix thread, anyone got any recommendations for Amazon Video?

    Started watching The Man In The High Castle yesterday and it's not bad.

    Interesting concept and they've spent a few quid on it by the looks of the sets.

    In it, the Nazi's and the Japs won WW2 and took over the US and divided it in half between them. The year is some point in the 60's and the story follows some members of the resistance and some high ranking officials of the Japanese and Nazi military.

    It has some annoying and cliche parts but overall is good stuff. Executive produced by Ridley Scott and based on the book by Phillip K Knob.

    Also has the best opening title sequence since Game of Thrones:

    Mr Robot - but I think you've seen that.

    Bosch.

    Seen them - don't tend to use it as much as Netflix.

    You're not really selling it to me there.

    Perhaps there were some tits on show?

    Bosch looks good though, but only because I like the books.

    No jugulars so far. Some gruesome moments, the writing isn't perfect but does have its moments.

    Just finished The Man in the High Castle. It was enjoyable, a real slow burner with good story. They took the time to develop the characters but ultimately it was a lot like Mr Robot, all building to a big ending then kind of fell a little flat.I haven't read TMITHC book, so don't know how much it follows the same arc. About to start Blindspot. looking fwd to it

    One of my favourite books. I hear they've sanitised it a bit for the screen but I really want to see it. Was considering signing up for a while just to watch it (and Transparent, which is meant to be great on there).

    On another note, anyone had to endure the outrageous hassle of having to install Amazon Video on an Android device?
