I don’t know what I was expecting when I hit play in Netflix but wow. Incredible. Has anyone else seen this?

Haven't seen it, but I found her kid. I have a feeling dad made the costume.

I found it interesting at first, then creepy to the point where I was hoping for an intervention.

Yes. I was like I know a few therapists who you can talk it out with.

Yeah, my wife loved it, but I fell asleep 2/3rds in. The footage was incredible, the story was cool, but when I'm watching a nature doc I don't want the scene to be repeatedly panned to the narrator's face talking about what's happening. I want to see what's happening.

I tried watching it yesterday but didn't finish. I have troubles with documentaries sometimes. I wanted to know more about the octopus and less about the filmmaker.

I read a book about octopi (is that the correct plural?) several years ago that I found fascinating.
