The Last Kingdom on Netflix! For the second time haha.
Excellent series based on historical fact, so quite interesting from that standpoint also. During shows like that I learn a fair bit because I am constantly wondering which parts are true and which parts are not, understanding quite well that dramatizations are inserted freely to spice up the story, LOL, so I find myself doing a lot of research just to be clear on things. Also, I mentioned this show just the other day in this thread (<= link) as Uhtred did make me think he would make an excellent movie Jesus, and I have only ever thought that of one other character, "the Stranger" as he is called in the German mind-bending time travel story of Dark, which I am now watching for the second time.

I liked this. Christian apologist Wes Huff answers questions from a bunch of guys from other religions (but mostly the religion of the world). He presents an excellent and gracious defense of the gospel.

Private Eyes, an interesting series on 2 Private Investigators and I must say I'm very impressed what Toronto has created here👏👍

Gladiator 2. Funnily enough, the reason I watched this was because Denzel is in it. Unfortunately, I was not keen on Denzel in this movie. Otherwise, for the most part though, I found it to be entertaining. The sharks in the arena scene, although not historically accurate, was particularly entertaining...

I've never watched 1 or 2, but that shark scene was rather entertaining 😂

I used to like Denzel, but once he started claiming to be a Christian, i began losing interest in him.
Especially after The Book of Eli. Which he not only starred in, but was also heavily involved in writing the script.
And some of that movie was hard to get through. But at the end (spoilers) we find out he had been after the Bible this whole time, but then it's placed on a shelf with other religious books of all kinds. It seemed to kind of put the Bible as equal to other religious books, such as Islam.
Wouldn't have bothered me so much if it wasn't someone claiming to be Christian. But in this case it irked me.

I've seen Book of Eli. Thank you for pointing that out!

I found it hard to watch him in the role he played in Gladiator 2, considering he claims to be a Christian. And then I read about the deleted scenes and I was even more skeptical. Just personally speaking, if I was an actor, I wouldn't be able to act in that role as a Christian.

I feel that way about anyone in acting claiming to be a Christian.
It's pretty much impossible to be an actor and not compromise.
Look at Chris Pratt. He made all this noise about being Christian, but then I look at some of the parts he played and I simply cannot believe it.

Last Breath (2025) This movie came out earlier this year, starring Woody Harrelson. It's a true story about saturation divers, one becomes trapped. I really enjoyed it. Tense!
