Time again to take a look at what's been happening on Stan for the last week (spoiler alert: plenty has been happening!)
For TV, there's nothing like getting back into a classic, and in this case, an Australian classic in the form of Mother And Son. There was a time you couldn't get away from catching an episode of this show on Aunty, it's a bit harder now - but this is why you have streaming services like Stan, filling in the gap between free to air TV and oblivion.
There are also new episodes of Adventure Time season 9.
There's a lot happening again on movies. Starting with classic duologies and trilogies, Ghostbusters and Ghostbusters II is always worth a watch, even if the sequel wasn't as good (but still a personal favourite). The Men In Black Trilogy also suffers from sequel-itis, but I thought III was a lot better than II and actually made me look forward to a IV if they ever decide to make one.
There's the sexy thriller Wild Things, and the quota-rific (I'm making up a lot of words today) movies Jerry Maguire ("You had me at 'SHOW ME THE MONEY!'" or something like that) and Taxi Driver ("You talkin' to me? You talkin' to me? No? Oh sorry, my mistake. Have a good day sir!" or something along that line).
I fully enjoyed the music of Inside Llewyn Davis if not the actual story (something that happens occasionally with me and Coen brothers movies), but maybe the boring and pointless story is the point.
The world movie pick of the week goes to Goodbye Berlin.
Remember, you can always get a look ahead at everything that's coming in February in our February preview.
