Finally, the picks of the week. Alex says, “Season 2 of Fruits Basket is a decent enough place to jump on if you’ve watched the original series, just want to know what happened next (so you skipped the first season of the new adaptation), but haven’t read (or don’t want to read) the manga.” Blaine says, “there are a few titles on my watchlist, including The English Patient and Gone Baby Gone.”
Raid 2 / Raid: Redemption
OOOoh! This is the movie that strongly features Silat, the martial art style I teach. It’s a good movie, too. If you like bloody gang-land style movies, catch both, but you don’t need to see the first to see the second, the stories are as related as Spider-Verse is to Far From Home.
