I was completely floored by quality of movie atmosphere and yeah, this is true [retro-future-cyberpunk show]
of the 80s, without any strained interpretations.
Pumping soundtrack, marvelous neon illumination with dramatic light beams, excellent design rise quality of the picture to the point where we can safely say “this is classic!”. Glorious CRT monitors, bulky industrial keyboards, cool computer graphics made on fancy new [Amiga]
computers. FILM WAS AVAILABLE IN SUPERB 30 FPS [EAT THIS!
[Solaris]
is the best soviet Sci-Fi movie produced by [Andei Tarkovsky]
. It often counts as direct answer to beautiful and timeless [2001: A Space Odyssey]
by [Stanley Kubrick]
. Although Solaris had far less budget it surely provides plenty of food to the grey matter. Moreover, movie goes even deeper in philosophical aspects than Space Odyssey. So, the film is for those of you who like to think things over.
[Planet Earth I]
and [Planet Earth II]
are probably the best documentary series about diverse wildlife on Earth. Make sure to watch them in high-res!

[Modernized remake]
of vintage black and white [Outer Limits]
of the 60s. Most of series are junk, but beware that in rare cases GEMS can be found. Anyways, serial is recommended for those who would like to experience 90s aesthetics like early CGI graphics, CRT monitors, pagers and "shiny new" cellphones. INTRO WARNING: 7TH SEASON IS A COMPLETE ABOMINATION!

I have pretty strong nostalgia regarding vintage light effects.
Vibrant blast of light beams: such scheme was very common during 80s days.
I don’t understand why movie industry almost abandoned it in favor of generic non-atmospheric CGI illumination. Just check these light rays out!

Deep immersion into 1906. It almost makes you think that you are actually there, very-very close to reality! Moreover it really makes you feel like a time traveler as everyone stop and stare at you.

Is it a detective? Horror? Comedy? Melodrama? Or psychedelic art-house?
Giving glance onto [Twin Peaks]
we can quickly discover that movie demonstrates not only serious detective elements, unserious humor, melodramatic notes but scary horror vibes at the same time. How could it be?
Film forces watcher to experience controversial states of mind in a short amount of time and it surely features some kind of psychedelic vibes among the frames.
[Tales of horror]
based on the gruesome comic books of the 1950s presented by the legendary Crypt Keeper, a sinister ghoul obsessed with gallows humor and horrific puns.

For serious people i can suggest to watch classic trilogy [Rocky I]

/ [Rocky III]
. Also i can recommend [Rocky V]
. It is surprisingly satysfying especially how dumb was [Rocky IV]

[Miami Vice]
….what can i say? I don’t know why it has status of cult tv series. Plot and acting are very plain and sometimes ridiculously childish.
One thing which i know for sure is that film demonstrates pretty good music selection for the era. We can hear not only generic stuff like pop and rock, but more underground things like techno, funk and reggae, which are also here.
Scratchy narration makes movie stylish only at the very beginning of the [show]
, but heading towards to the end it transforms picture into incoherent overcomplicated mess.
Pretty neat plot spoiled by overwhelming amount of flashbacks and useless characters with detailed description of their past lifes.
Scarce amount of backdrop music. Last season should be banned.
It's been a while

I've lost some markdown sources of the blog, so pretty much everything from May 2022 was restored from scratch

[British masterpiece]
that shows corruption and stupidness of top-end bureaucrats, repressing KGB actions and lying propaganda statistics. Films also expose true and forgotten heroes of the time. It also features:
realistic narration very solid acting atmospheric ambient soundtrack ENTRANCE QUOTE FROM THE FIRST EPISODE
[Big Bang Theory]
shows how to do comedy in a proper way. Excellent sitcom. Story line holds up pretty well. Overall scenario and actor cues are just brilliant. Sense of humor is universal with glimpses of geek related stuff.
Main disadvantage is permanent backdrop laugh. I wonder is there any chance to get version without “wonderful” pointer when to laugh and when not? One more downside that I’ve noticed: complete absence of music.
After [atrocious Walking Dead]

, the same guy who created classic Evil Dead series. Movie brings excellent story line with very solid acting. Ultra [atmospheric sountrack by Joseph LoDuca]

Legendary and ridiculously underrated TV-series ever. Spartacus is a real drama, showing what is a “humanity” in a nutshell.
