The Blue and the Gray (Andrew V. McLaglen, 1982) Mini-Series
Part 3-5 (Missing 1 and 2, and yet IMDB only shows Part 1-3, though apparently there are 2 more episodes for it to be about 340 minutes total.)

They use some historical uniforms and actually blew up an historical building (of the Prarie Grove battlefield, a replacement of the Borden house that burned down was restored and used in the series, where they "accidentally" used more explosive then expected. . . This is a reminder not to use historical artifacts or locations for film sets, because Directors are often shit stupid.)
I might just resort to getting a DVD set since I don't really want to start the series unless from the beginning, and the DVDS sell for about $5.

Currently $5 on GOG, though I'll just play through it at 2x speed while playing something else (Yakuza Kiwami 2 after finishing the first one, after having previously started with Zero.)
Dark Arisen is just an updated version of Dragon's Dogma which came out in 2012, which no one seems to mention, and a Dragon's Dogma 2 was just released, but has a lower rating.
Another game that kind of got overlooked was Rise of the Tomb Raider. It seems as if whenever games are mostly targeting console gamers, they tend to become interactive movies. . . It's like the people playing modern console games have no interest in actually playing a game, if it's too complicated, so they make it as linear as possible and lack the talent to make it anything more than a banal button mashing interaction.
And I would honestly buy this for $2 considering a large bee hive was just removed from the house, and I've been melting the comb into wax as it strains through mesh tied to a crock pot. The vast majority of the comb was the pupa. . . A very large bulk of what filed up about 1/3rd of a large trash bag full, and it kind of sent me down the topic up how they transition from a bee colony and form the hive as well as produce the wax, etc. Considering the nest that wasn't placed into a new box with the queen had some live bees still clinging inside the bag, I was wondering more about their life cycle, considering they were all dead within a day, and I don't know if the people who pulled them out had place insecticide, since it didn't smell (and I'm concerned how it will affect the wax as well.) since the oxygen in the bag wouldn't seem to be that big a deal, considering they aren't large mammals.) Either way, it is kind of nasty to dig through melted comb with large piles of larva in them, and I've been tempted to feed them to birds if their were any to eat the remains (of which I've only seen blue jays after they've annihilated other bird species nests and brought the baby birds to silence while the adult could only helplessly watch. . .) Nature is psychopathic and brutal.

Re: What are you watching?
I sometimes cut it into pieces, but first I cut it into slices. The slices aren't too thick, so the knife won't have to deal with a bowl shape. It's easier and cleaner to eat the chunks than to dig your teeth into slices. I've mixed the chunks with cantaloupe, I admit. Never got fancy and put it back in the rind.

So it's really a pseudo-documentary with an intentional irony?

Re: What are you watching?
Currently $2.99 on Steam (usually $15)
Currently less than $9 (normally $25) though considered glitchy.
Epic games is giving away Dragon Age Inquisition (though I would rather not download it.)
I still haven't even gotten around to the first one (Ultimate edition) and generally ignored the series afterward.
It's a bit like this (he started playing this 10 years ago only to return recently, and is on his second playthrough. . . So I might just add it to determine later.
