probably worse. Pretty sure Druckmann was less involved in season 2 even. Or I thought I saw that.

Yeah he felt less involved. Bigger departures from the game. But the origional episodes are the highest rated.

I feel like I haven't been doing this lately, feel like I haven't been quite as excited for new releases.

Also added a bunch of kids movies.

What percentage of these do you actually end up watching? Or is this a bit more like Steam and game collecting

Movies:
Watched after Plex: 50%
Watched before Plex: 20%

10% are on my watchlist. 

There are a bunch of movies that are kids movies that I got as bundles, that I'm not very sure that anyone will watch. I got this whole bundle of 14 Land Before Time movies, and I think only 3 of them have ever gotten watched. 

There are still like ~50 unwatched movies I'm intending to get around to. 

TV shows are something like:
Finished: ~25%
Watched Partly: ~20%
Other things I watched before Plex: ~15%

I'm slowly working through my watchlist.

Some shows I'm still slowly collecting. (Like I have the first 8 seasons of Simpsons, probably going to get something like 12 seasons.)

Not as bad as my Steam library.  I'm pretty sure like 75% of my steam library is unplayed, and most of it I know I have no intention of playing.

There are some things I don't intend to watch either, it's there for other people. But I do intend to get around to most of it.

I need to get back to getting all my shows and movies onto my plex.  And figure out the reason some of them were giving weird frames.  I just never got back into it.  One day I'll get back to it.

Do you recall what kind of weird frames you were getting?

I believe it was similar to this: https://www.reddit.com/r/makemkv/comments/18fle6p/i_keep_getting_corrupted_frames_on_my_bluray_rips/

But I'm not entirely sure exactly.  I'm not sure whether I ever checked them on other players.

But I know playing them through plex gave me the weird frames

I definitely have an issue that I buy things faster than I'm watching though.

At least on the movie side, I think I've been slowing down on buying new movies.

And sometimes I really feel choice paralysis. Too many good choices of things to watch at any time.

Interesting, I have never seen that.

I've been watching this anime called Psycho-Pass and the whole concept is somewhat similar to Minority Report. 

Spoiler for Hidden:

<br>It&#39;s about a world where there is a system that measures whether someone might become a criminal, and potential criminals get therapy, or they just get arrested or killed if their criminal score is high enough.&nbsp;<br><br><div style="margin:20px; margin-top:5px"><div class="smallfont" style="margin-bottom:2px"><b>Spoiler</b> for <i>Hidden</i>: <input type="button" value="Show" style="width:60px;font-size:10px;margin:0px;padding:0px;" onClick="if (this.parentNode.parentNode.getElementsByTagName('div')[1].getElementsByTagName('div')[0].style.display != '') { this.parentNode.parentNode.getElementsByTagName('div')[1].getElementsByTagName('div')[0].style.display = ''; this.value = 'Hide'; } else { this.parentNode.parentNode.getElementsByTagName('div')[1].getElementsByTagName('div')[0].style.display = 'none'; this.value = 'Show'; }"></div><div class="alt2" style="margin: 0px; padding: 6px; border: 1px inset;"><div style="display: none;"><br>The really fascinating thing is that the story is told through the perspective of the police and you see a lot of terrible criminals but the story clearly has a lot of skepticism of the system.<br><br></div></div></div><br>
