Hm. I don't know. The logician and the children... At the same time, that's silly, adorable and tells you surprisingly much about the Vulcan society. Problem: there's this other civilization and you really don't have any context. Are they somehow important in the sector? What role do they play? Or are they just generic baddies (or so it seems)? Well, in the end there's a twist and an interesting phenomenon is discovered. This philosophical part isn't bad but very shallow
This episode is totally inconsequential. Off they go and next week's episode starts as if nothing had happened.
Eight seasons to find out who Finn’s parents are. I love it.
I am so proudly going to tell my kids that I lived in the time when Community aired on Television.
Its Scream meets The Blair Witch but it still manages to transcend both of those films to become its own thing too. An intriguing setup for the next two Fear Street movies and I for one am looking forward to them.
3 Thoughts After Watching ‘Fear Street Part One: 1994’:
Lemme tell you… I loved it! It was nostalgic. It was an homage to so much that has come before (that intro had ‘Scream’ written all over it). But it also had a hefty dose of originality. Great characters you cared about. It took risks. It surprised you. And it was a LOT more mature than I expected it to be. I loved the books way back when, and this made me wanna read them again. Bravo.
I LOVED the LGBT twist in the beginning! Did NOT expect that person to be Sam. Solid execution.
It had a bit of a Hocus Pocus vibe to me, which made the character deaths and the paths into “Rated R” territory that much more effective. It was a weird and welcomed mix.
Bonus Thought: I legit can’t wait for the next one. Super invested.
Bode is just annoying at this point. He's the reason the family is getting in trouble 90% of the time...
[7.1/10] A bit milder of an episode, but still has its moments. I like Derek getting a little focus, and the show building out his relationship with Bean. There’s something compelling about him being lonely given his pressures and isolation and general unsuitedness to be heir to the throne juxtaposed with Bean being subject to the usual gender essentialism and sense of being usurped in her own family. Sure, it’s a little corny that at the end of the day, she proves how much she cares about Derek by risking her life to save him from a monster, but it’s also a little sweet (and the show nicely adds in that trademark Groening dose of cynicism to take the edge off).
I was less enamored with Zog’s “I wish I had gout” B-story. Luci helping people make bad decisions is always a good tack on this show, but the jokes from Zog eating terrible organ foods didn’t have much mileage in them (beyond rampant grossness, which isn't really my thing) and, aside from the Duke of Twinkletown getting attacked by the octopus, didn’t really go anywhere.
But while Derek’s story underwhelmed a bit, his boyish playing and slapstick with Elfo was cute. Really, the only major weakspot in this one was the giant squid, who seemed like a pretty random obstacle whose presence felt contrived. Even there, I got a kick out of the party barge captain coming back for some humor of the mundane amid the fantastical.
Overall, this is a middle-of-the-road episode at best, but one that’s mostly inoffensive, and has a good premise in terms of the main character relationship it explores.
Other than the sheer charisma of Chris Hemsworth and likability of Miles Teller, there wasn't much carrying the film. The plot is fairly obvious and uninspired (I hope the book is better) and the characters are all somewhat underdeveloped.
Another mediocre Netflix film. It's a very cookie cutter movie. Actually, for Netflix it was good. It just turns out that a good Netflix film is just mediocre when compared to everything else.
With some tweaks to make things less obvious, this could have gone from mediocre to good. Instead of assuming the audience is stupid and unable to figure out whom the bad guys are, make this an intelligent story where things are only partially explained and left open to interpretation. Add nuance to the story to make it interesting.
As it is, it is good enough to watch once and immediately forget. I would never recommend it, but if someone said they were interested, I wouldn't tell them to avoid it. The very definition of mediocre.
IT'S THE BLOODY HOUND. GIVE HIM HIS CHICKEN!
Great episode.
Was great to see the Blackfish. And Lady Mormont. Massive respect. Showed 10 times more potential than Tommen did or ever will.
That Arya moment what the fuck. I knew something was gonna happen. Please no. I'm going on a riot if something happens to Arya. Writers please. No :|
Was kinda annoyed with Sansa shitting on Davos like that :/
Overall giving this week an 8/10. It was good, but not outstanding.
Based on the promo there's no way Jamie can take on Brienne xD
The last 10 minutes of this episode is probably one of the most powerful endings I've ever seen! Gave me goosebumps!
Joffrey Baratheon: "Dog, I command you to go back out there and fight!"
Tyrion Lannister: "You're Kingsguard, Clegane. We must beat them back, or they're going to take this city! Your King's city!"
Sandor Clegane: "Fuck the Kingsguard. Fuck the city. Fuck the king."
they really killed him omg! i was hoping something would happen! so now i know why people are saying characters really die on GoT
Monsters inc is one of the best Pixar films to date. It's the perfect mix of comedy and heartwarming scenes.
The episode order needs fixing ASAP
sure let's revisit the worst episode of the season but marry it with some of the most moronic action sequences AND have Soong go full stereotype villain
gawd
Honestly, the rest of Season 9 that I have watched thus far has been such a slog to get through that this episode was a breath of fresh air. The use of music and the highly stylistic cinematography were highly enjoyable; I love when a piece of media isn't afraid to play with the medium. It will definitely be going on my list of favorite The X-Files episodes.
Fantastic? not quite and still doesn’t live up to the first film but definitely surpasses the second one and definitely brings more nostalgia from the Harry Potter films, loved the magical effects, all cast did well. Negatives- less on the humour this time but i guess it’s like the Harry Potter films on going darker the more you go through also felt a little rushed with the plot and that’s pretty much it but over all it was enjoyable and at times warming.
A very X-Files episode! It really digs into the true mythology of the show.
I loved seeing Mulder really standing up for his beliefs!
I'm very intrigued by Deep Throat
Clearly Scully hasn't learned anything. So there is a conspiracy of doctors to hide alien babies. Where do you seek refuge? From the Army, that it's IN from the beginning? That has secret alien planes and hides aliens? Yep good idea, they will for sure help you!
man, Ray Pearce is a really unfortunate name.
I'm a bit on the fence here about the "new" X-Files. But I do like Dogget!
One of my favorite episodes! I absolutely loved the fact that this probably aired on FOX while COPS was also on the air. I loved the idea that some people might have actually taken it seriously as a COPS episode due to the intro being basically identical to the actual cop show.
This must've been the premise for what would become the 2012 movie, Chronicle. I would also assume that the bullet scene was inspired by the popularity of The Matrix earlier that year, 1999.
Scully: "What else do you want to do or find?"
Mulder: "My sister."
PHRASING!
A bit more background on Mulder's past, so that was good... but the episode overall was a bit boring
"dear diary: today my heart leapt when agent scully suggested spontaneous human combustion"
This is episode he got back his "I want to believe!" Poster.
haha a lotta dog jokes and puns here; but more importantly, 1999 was just the time when online dating or meeting someone from the internet grew, so it's nice that they incorporated that into the show
