To qualify for my Watch List every month, the following has to be something that I've watched that's new to me. It doesn't necessarily have to be a current show, but it can't be reruns or rewatches of something I've already seen. So if I'm including it in this list, it means this month is the first time I've watched it. I'll put "DNF" (Did Not Finish) next to anything that I stopped watching and have no immediate plans to finish. Movies ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Television ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() I watched a lot of really good stuff in July. On the movie side, Despicable Me 4 was a fun continuation of the popular Minions franchise, and IF was a surprisingly heartfelt and enjoyable movie. The Fall Guy would have been my favorite movie of the month if it weren't also Deadpool & Wolverine release month, and that's a movie that's been an absolute beast to work on, but is something that I'm really proud of and has been a much needed hit for us at work, so I'm a bit partial. ![]() On the television side, my wife and I finally started watching True Detective, although we liked the second season a lot more than the first season, even though it's been the least popular season to date. Each season is a completely different cast and different crime that's being explored so it keeps things interesting. Owning Manhattan is the new show starring Ryan Serhant, a New York real estate broker that first starred in another real estate show years ago called Million Dollar Listing New York and this one followed him growing his own brokerage firm, which is actually pretty interesting to watch. The Boys is always an entertaining show, and I think I liked Star Wars' The Acolyte more than most fans did. 3 Body Problem was a little slow to start, but really interesting toward the end. I've been meaning to read the books, but after looking over a synopsis of the books and how complicated the narrative is, maybe I'll just stick with the show... ![]() TOP PICK: Deadpool & Wolverine |
