I'm now considering this a personal challenge. I will get to the end and am prepared to accept the inevitable disappointment.
An amazing episode, with stories and threads that will likely make much more sense later on. Suspense, mystery, and emotion, all masterfully woven together.
It was nice to go back to the past. Double nose, single eye is very strange. Does this mean that each shelter adopts a different purpose? The cowboy was starting to behave very correctly. The twelfth floor thing is crazy. Pears often fall to the bottom. How can a person change so much for a bathrobe and slippers? :joy:
The Yolanda episodes are always the best. They're always the deepest in conflict and present many perspectives on which ever topic they're tackling. She's also by far and away the best actor on the show.
Thrilling finale to a great show. I really enjoyed it!
I really enjoyed this final episode and the series. Good edge of the seat tension. Well worth a watch :thumbsup_tone1:
This stood out as the most in your face reality of Klingons and the reality of their warlike ethic. The fact that Spock could never understand unless he was there underlined how war affects people on a much deeper level than just the facts of a battle. Pike showed his ignorance at the end when he was blathering about who should judge and federation law this and that, he made himself look stupid holding the company line. Mbenga gets to judge. Because he was there and he suffered, nobody else is fit to judge him, certainly not pompous starfleet admirals. This was a great episode, I thought it was going to be the musical and was prepared for the worst :joy:
This was a hilarious episode. Especially the scene where Una, La’an, Uhura and Ortegas taught Spock to speak like a Vulcan. :smile:
It also had a lot of emotions and the acting was as always top notch from this cast.
Sadly it’s only 5 episodes left of the season. :confused:
What the f...?
I really loved that episode! Ethan Peck played that role fascinatingly good. What a blast this second season is.
Another episode that proves this is the best season of the best Star Trek since years. Bravo! loving this season!
Strong start, and I say that acknowledging that Asimovian truism is obvs not their goal. I legit love where they’re taking the whole “prophecy” narrative, since that aspect of the OG story would be hard to convey as a TV show..
Making it a battle of rebellious, savant-tier genius vs a technologically elite Empire of forgotten dreams—whose ruler is a clone controlled by an actual robot—really makes it feel relevant to our experience: moneyed royalty building an algorithmically-powered, AI driven—chatGPT, Google Bard, etc)—but potentially distopian future… Pretty excellent.
Trek as it should be! Great final episode of a fantastic first season. Can't wait for the next season. Why were there only 10 episodes?!
Contrary to some of the other comments on this episode and series in general - by all means bring on season 2 and beyond. This is what Star Trek was and is supposed to be!
The "problem of the week" storytelling is what made TOS and TNG what they were, and I'm glad they stuck to it with this series. Discovery and Picard aside, I'm excited for where we go from here.
Yet another fantastic episode. Really impressed with this show, since it's a CW show.
Why are they doing everything they can to make Alex the least likeable character in the entire DC universe!?
How could you not have melted inside the moment you saw that old bird one last time? It was only natural that in the end this would boil down to the borg but I think almost everyone had them as their number one suspect for weeks. What a victory this episode was for any of us with varying degrees of grey in our hair eh? Oh how I look forward to next week, with tissues in hand and a lump in my throat, we're at the end my friends. Buckle up, it's going to be the ride of our lives.
The dialogue between these two old men and former/still friends at the end of the episode was fantastic. Felt so real and truly touching, mostly thanks to incredible acting by both.
Stephen Dorff and Mahershala Ali are such a great team, awesome acting.
Talk about a night and day episode. That was legit fantastic!
Fantastic pacing and really intense. I think Henry and Sam are portrayed really well!
This show is great. Great writing. Great story. Can't wait for the next episode
Bella Ramsay's face and cry when the camera snapped to her as Henry shot himself gutted me.
Ser Criston Cole is a Dragon rider now!
1x03 Adar: 7.3/10 (Good)
Arondir is taken prisoner by the Orcs, Nori finds herself in a sticky situation with her family because of a secret friend she has been keeping from them. Galadriel and her new travel companion Halbrand arrive at a new Kingdom, Númenor. A satisfying continuation to the story that manages to keep things interesting. There's not much to remark about this episode, but we got to see more of Middle Earth, got introduced to some new characters, and the episode did a fantastic job of establishing the grandeur and scale of Middle-Earth. The show is starting to find its footing, and I’m excited for what is to come. Oh, and I know I'm starting to sound like a broken record, but the VFX and cinematography is just breathtaking.
This was bar-none the best episode of Arrow this season. Loved it!. I'm not sure what was more jarring though. Seeing Diaz light the childhood bully on fire, or Laurel going back to her normal hair-style. I thought it was a new hairstyle not a wig.
Wow. Just wow. By far the best episode of the season. I for the most time thought Diaz was the weakest char in this season. I mean of all the villains by far. But I might consider otherwise after what happened here.
I love this show. It just keeps getting better and better. World building for everyone, actual personalities for everyone. Just please keep it up for the rest of the show, I'm beggin' you, Marvel.
Great first episode, so thrilling as it starts to build again
