The NCIS 1000 behind the scenes special. It was way more interesting than
the actual episode.
In the background I watched some NCIS episodes I never seen and some CSI >Horatio reruns. The streamers are really ugly for trying to watch the

What did you watch?
I watched another animated flick JUSTICE LEAGUE vs THE FATAL FIVE
In this movie we have a trio of bad guys from the future travel into
the past to free two of their group that are trapped in a prison in
the time of the Justice League. A hero from the future also manages to
travel into the past to stop them but he has a fatal weakness. He
needs regular doses of a drug or else he tends to forget who he is. A
drug that doesn't exist in the JL time. So he forgets most of his
mission other than that there is a Fatal Five and that he needs to
find the Limelight before getting locked away in a mental institution.
The story then proceeds from there as the trio of bad guys proceed to
do bad things.
I'll leave the rest of the story for your enjoyment when watching the
flick as it's a good story. There are some bits that didn't make sense
within the story like an axe that can cut Superman but doesn't cut
Wonder Woman's sword but it was still an enjoyable watch.
I also watched TOP CHEF where the contestants had to join into teams
to prepare a Supper Club based menu. Each team ran into issues because
of the restrictive budget. Which is always an issue every time they do
one of these challenges because they want the chefs to prepare great
dishes but then present a budget that makes it tough to do. In this
challenge they had a $1000 budget to prepare five dishes for 40 people
plus the judges. Which sounds like a lot but then one piece of beef
that one chef was using costs $160 (this is always from Whole Foods
otherwise known as Whole Paycheck for a very good reason.) That's just
for the protein.

What do you mean? - Do you mean the episodes *look* bad?! That is
definitely true when trying to watch CSI:HORATIO!!1!!11!!! off a source
like one of the 480i secondary channels. But I don't find that to really
be true when trying to watch it off, say, a streamer like Pluto TV.
It really shouldn't be ugly if it's not 480i.

I watched:
The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare (theatrical) New World War II
movie written and directed by Guy Ritchie based on true events. The
movie stars Superman (Henry Cavill) and Jack Reacher (Alan Ritchson) as
two men recruited by the British government (Ian Fleming and "M" played
by Cary Elwes) to recruit a team of Inglourious Basterds to hunt and
kill Nazis as part of a plan to disrupt Nazi U-boat operations in the Atlantic. If you don't like Nazis and want to watch a movie where Nazis
are gleefully slaughtered left and right, then this is the movie for
you. I absolutely need to pair this movie with Inglourious Basterds
which would feel almost like a sequel. They are in the Killin' Nazi business and business is a boomin!

I was about ready to throw something at the TV during the trial scene
when the defense had a monitor set up and proceeded to show images that
the DA had never seen before. So why exactly did the DA think there was
a TV in the court room for? Why didn't the DA object *before* he
started to show the images? And once the surprise pictures were shown,
why did the judge let them in? We just got the pictures last night is
not a reason! And we just got them the night before doesn't mean the pictures aren't fake!

You can't just show evidence to the jury that hasn't been authenticated, accepted by the court, and marked and logged first. If you do something like that, you'll trigger a mistrial and get yourself reported to the bar by the judge for sanctions, and likely have to serve some type of contempt charge.
EVERYONE in court should have been asking what that TV was for since nothing that could be shown on it had been introduced to the court as evidence. The judge, the court clerk, the prosecutors... everyone.

continuing to watch the things it records.

Have they ever needed evidence to arrest someone?

Interesting - this is not available on Max, even though it should be.
Checking IMDb, it looks like it was even an "HBO Max original"... I
wonder if this was one of the things that was purged off Max in Zaslav's
"tax write-off" "purge" of Max original content...

The wiki is very confusing. But apparently in the original stories, the character has a ring that isn’t a standard issue green lantern ring, but either has a different source or origin, or has been changed by contact
with previous owners. So it was a one time thing for her that wouldn’t happen with the standard power ring and doesn’t really make sense when they grafted the events of another story and another ring onto this one.

Yeah, that was the beginning Saturn girl, who was like the comics.

Wiki sorry I’ve explains this. They took a storyline with different people
and powers and grafted it onto this movie. Which is probably why it didn’t
make any sense.
Thanks for the recommend!
You are welcome.
At least tonight's resurrection made more sense. Just finished
rewatching JUSTICE LEAGUE DARK APOKOLIPS WAR where two people get
resurrected but at least there is a reason why it happened that fits
in with what we've seen before.
I think that’s one of the newer movies that I was enjoying, and haven’t watched yet, and was only available on trial services I got with the firestick…
OK the film series I was watching is the TOMORROWVERSE.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tomorrowverse?wprov=sfti1#Development
JUSTICE LEAGUE DARK APOCALYPSE WAR is the final film in the previous
series.
Which confuses me even more as to why these people don’t know the Legion but hey.

Wikipedia says that this was a fairly faithful version, except that it was
darkseid that Smashed her ring and killed her and the ring brought her back
more powerful than before
So if the ring can do that why didn't it do it for anyone else?
The wiki is very confusing. But apparently in the original stories, the

You are welcome.
At least tonight's resurrection made more sense. Just finished
rewatching JUSTICE LEAGUE DARK APOKOLIPS WAR where two people get
resurrected but at least there is a reason why it happened that fits
in with what we've seen before.
I think that’s one of the newer movies that I was enjoying, and haven’t >>> watched yet, and was only available on trial services I got with the
firestick…
OK the film series I was watching is the TOMORROWVERSE.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tomorrowverse?wprov=sfti1#Development
JUSTICE LEAGUE DARK APOCALYPSE WAR is the final film in the previous
series.
Which confuses me even more as to why these people don’t know the Legion >>> but hey.
My plan was to revisit the earlier films working my way through
Apocalypse War then dive into the Tomorrowverse. But I think I only
made it through one or two movies and just never got back into it. I
really do want to see them again, and I absolutely must watch the
Tomorrowverse movies I haven't even watched once yet. So eventually
I'll get around to it.
Well, you’ve got until the second crisis drops at least. :-)

Amazingly, I actually know two of the people involved in this and I didn’t
realize it until now.
That’s a completely different Saturn girl/Saturn Queen at the end than it
The story then proceeds from there as the trio of bad guys proceed to
do bad things.
I'll leave the rest of the story for your enjoyment when watching the

This was OK. It wasn’t as good as the newer stuff that I’ve praised that

travel into the past to stop them but he has a fatal weakness. He
needs regular doses of a drug or else he tends to forget who he is. A

I'll leave the rest of the story for your enjoyment when watching the

This was OK. It wasn’t as good as the newer stuff that I’ve praised that
looks to be 3-D for 2-D. But it balances that out by having the older voice
cast.
I’m completely confused by the continuity. The justice league that had >>>>> Supergirl certainly knew about the Legion. But these guys don’t.
I take it we actually see the end of the green lantern corp in this movie.
We don't know why it ends but they clearly aren't around in this
future.
I don’t know who the Legion we see at the end of the movie is, but it’s
certainly not the Legion we saw the beginning. Jessica Cruz thanks for them
for coming to the funeral because the dead guy thought so highly of them. >>>>> But in fact, the dead guy never would’ve met these people.
What do you mean? Those are among the people that he worked with.
That’s a completely different Saturn girl/Saturn Queen at the end than it >>> was in the beginning. I wouldn’t even have known who it was if she didn’t
have the Saturn logo on her chest.
Hell, one of them even asked him at the beginning of the movie if he
had taken his shot and warning him that "You know what happens if you
don't take your shot." So of course they knew him.
Yeah, that was the beginning Saturn girl, who was like the comics.
OK I’m completely wrong about this. When the movie started, I was looking >at the cast list and saw Tara Strong as a completely different Saturn Girl >who is more like Zenon girl of the future. I went back and checked, and >it’s the same character design at the beginning at the end.

That was another stupid part of her plan.

Yeah, I don't know what the rules are in that universe for time

Wiki sorry I’ve explains this. They took a storyline with different people
and powers and grafted it onto this movie. Which is probably why it didn’t
make any sense.
Thanks for the recommend!
You are welcome.
At least tonight's resurrection made more sense. Just finished
rewatching JUSTICE LEAGUE DARK APOKOLIPS WAR where two people get
resurrected but at least there is a reason why it happened that fits
in with what we've seen before.
I think that’s one of the newer movies that I was enjoying, and haven’t >watched yet, and was only available on trial services I got with the >firestick…
OK the film series I was watching is the TOMORROWVERSE.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tomorrowverse?wprov=sfti1#Development
JUSTICE LEAGUE DARK APOCALYPSE WAR is the final film in the previous
series.
Which confuses me even more as to why these people don’t know the Legion >but hey.

I’ll take a look, thanks. The only ones I found were 4K. Which nobody gets

Yeah, I see that the 1080p Part One files aren't on EN. If you are
willing to go the torrent route you could pick it up here:
https://yts.mx/movies/justice-league-crisis-on-infinite-earths-part-one-2024
Those torrents are likely still active since this is a 2024 release.

Hmm, don't recall ever having heard of him. If he was just in Legion

Again, good reason to remember. Cosplay being one of the few reasons I

many people crowded into one place.)
