Who else is staying up way past their bedtime burning through Netflix’s recent cache of series and movies? I just finished “Squid Game” last week and it’s mad good! And let’s not even talk about the emotional rollercoaster that was “You” – every episode had me biting my nails down to the bone.
One thing I really enjoy is how each series offers a trip around the globe, introducing us to cultures and storytelling styles from different countries. I mean, one week you’re in the chaotic streets of India with “Sacred Games” and the next you’re in a strange school in Spain navigating teenage angst with “Elite”.
But while I’m gorging on these tales of fictional wonder, it’s hard to ignore the undeniably high quality of production. Cinematography, sound mixing, set design– it’s all so crisp and engaging. Shows like “The Queen’s Gambit” could easily have been a bit dull, revolving around chess? come on! But they suck you in with magnetic performances and camera work that’s just sublime.
Anyways, enough of my chatter. What’s been your guys’ Netflix indulgence lately? What should I line up for my next late-night binge? Always open to getting new recommendations and discussing the artistry behind our favorite pastimes. And yeah, is there anyone else out there who also enjoys analysing the technical aspect of these shows or am I just geek 🤔
