D preaching was a lot. That girl has bills. She doesn’t live with her parents. How about a little understanding.
Did we really need the warning at the beginning about the graphic nature...etc. This showed workplace minorly predatory behavior. She never said no, didn't really show him she was disapproving. Yes he was in a place of influence. Yes he barely acknowledged her back in the studio. He is a jerk. But did I need to be warned?
Ugh. I enjoy the series for the most part, but Dee is my least favourite character. I wouldn't be upset if she goes off to Military school and rarely (never) makes further appearances.
A whole episode about mopey Christine is just too depressing. Bob is sad. Abishola is sad. Not a very enjoyable episode.
VIN numbers is said a dozen times in this episode I think. Does anyone ever stop and think what they are saying. VIN means Vehicle Identification Number. So VIN number means Vehicle Identification Number Number.
Sorry. It annoys me. And the FBI boss should take Whistler off being NCIS liaison. This is the clearest conflict of interest ever.
That was a perfect episode! Nothing boring or poorly written at all! Emmy award winning performances by the entire cast!!! Unicorns were flying out of people's butts and no one's poop smelled bad anymore. Thrones is back baby!
Did I do that right?
In reality, after three episodes I find no one interesting at all and there's no standout performances whatsoever. The CGI makes me feel like I'm watching some penny-pinching Netflix production. Everything is so predictable in this episode just like last week. What a dumb-downed poorly written screenplay this is turning out to be...can't wait until the big time jump...
Kyle is not a villain. After last years domination and brilliant strategy of The Cookout, how was it wrong to be on the defensive about the possibility of a race based alliance being formed. SINCE IT ALREADY HAPPENED. You know who are the a holes? Michael and Brittany for weaponizing racism. That is what they did. Two weeks later and bring it up for strategic purposes. I love that Terrence sniffed that crap out. I was worried where this episode was going to go but I think what had to happen happened. Alyssa dumping Kyle — I guess she felt it was necessary. The audience response to Kyle leaving the house was sublime.
Not sure why everyone is getting giddy over this flick. Sure it was cool that they break into a bank and get away with it using fake guns and a fake execution. To me the movie never answers the Why to a level I need. Sure the mean banker fella acquired some wealth in disgusting fashion during World War 2. But this Rabbi I am assuming funded the mission to reposses these items is any better off as man of God for doing the right thing to break into the bank and put these innocent people through this? Does he have a personal vendetta against the bank owner? Jodie Foster WHY? She is unbelievably talented but her character here just seems so out of place. I'm not sure what a "power broker" is but I sure don't picture it as someone who can walk up to every corporate official in the city of New York and call in a favor or seven. Very confused by her portrayal of the character or most likely the director's reason for doing this. And what is in the envelope? Why does everyone rate this so high
Quite the COVID adjacent episode here. An illness from China. Quarantine.
Weak episode. And the main plot was boring. So was the protest subplot with Kumu but even more so.
I am still annoyed that pauley and mark could not make peace to give abby the send off she deserved, but that was good nonetheless. We have officially lost the heart of the show. Seriously hoping we get to see pauley and michael together in something in the future!
Absolutely disappointing rehash of the first trilogy. Disney had a real opportunity to do something new and exciting with this ipr but resorted to rushed writing with an extremely compressed story that makes no sense and fails to make anyone care for the characters or events. Emo Kylo is an outstanding metaphor for the whole deal.

While still funny and immensely entertaining, I confess I was a little disappointed with Deadpool. With this character, they had an opportunity to make a completely ridiculous and nonsensical superhero movie, and what we got as another generic plot following the tired origin story / damsel-in-distress formula, with a bit of crude humor and 4th-wall breaking mixed in. I almost wonder if that was the cost for finally getting this movie made.
I don't like Sansa - of course she would betray her brother's (ok, cousin's) trust and blab his secret to everyone - but now I don't like Daenerys either. Damn, would she sit down and wait for her army to heal and recuperate? She's gotten increasingly ruthless in the past couple of seasons. It would indeed be a decent strategy if Jon and Daenerys would marry and just rule together, but I don't think that's going to happen now. They killed off Rhaegal, so that's gotta foreshadow something - that there will only be one Targaryen left standing at the end of the series.
Also, poor Ghost. Leaving him to the North definitely signalled Jon's gradual departure from the Stark family and gradual acceptance of his Targaryen heritage. So sad to see him react to Jon like that.
I swear to God one of these days I'm gonna break into set and steal all their smoke machines so they stop this nonsense of filling every possible space with smoke.
Contrary to what I'm sure the green muppets will claim this is not a movie about nuclear power and dangers with it. Instead it's a really good movie showing the dangers with socialism. Party elitism, political appointments of useless people to positions they they should never have been considered for and incompetence running rampant.

This is a cliche-filed solid action movie with crazy gunfight sequences. It lacks a good narrative but the thrilling action makes up for it.
If you are looking for nuance there are tons of Dramas out there. It is not trying to be one of those films. This is an action movie as advertised.
Man, what a poor episode, lackluster after lackluster. If this is the culmination of the time and interest myself and others have invested into Game of Thrones all of these years, then it is truly unfortunate and disappointing if not almost bordering on an insult.
Such a shame that this will be the legacy of a series that once took the world by storm with its brilliant storytelling and exhilarating plot twists, hardly recognizable anymore when it parades around in a pathetic shell of its former self.
I can't say I'm excited nor even interested in the remaining episodes, at least not when this season has taught me time and again to lower my expectations as much as possible, but I hope they will at least respect what this series once was and offer a conclusion worthy of its story. sigh
What a huge letdown compared to Divergent... This totally feels like a Mockingjay Part 1 ripoff. Story is not really developing. There's not enough action but mostly some cliché drama between the two main characters. Not to say that they stole a lot of elements from The Matrix and Inception for the cinematography (which is still the strongest part of the movie). Last but not least: Most disappointing ending ever.
How can so little happen in 2 hours? Just watch this movie to find out. There is a flashback at the 12 minute mark...not a life flashback from years ago, but one from earlier in the movie. By the way, you've seen this movie before, it was called Presumed Innocent. Sure it's been changed a bit but...I will have to say Giovanni Ribisi has come a long way from his days as Pheobe's brother on Friends I thought he did a great job here and it was nice to finally see Bruce Willis not playing some washed up cop/fed/military dude.
9/10
I was totally engulfed in this film. Everything about it was well done. There was incredible character development, well-executed plot, and honestly an enjoyable world. There were multiple 'Inception' moments and SO many references to pop culture and the gaming world.
I thoroughly enjoyed the commentary on today's culture, and where we are going, taken to the extreme. It was neat to see the players who met online, meet in person and continue being friends, despite everyone being different in person. I really enjoyed that message as a gamer myself. Also funny to see commentary on corporate culture trying to take over any power available anywhere (in this case, a hobbyist gaming community.) Various good messages and insights on what the world has become/is becoming.
SUPER ENJOYABLE.
A wonderful goodbye to a decaying show. After quite a few underwhelming seasons, against all odds, they gave us a genuinely funny and very heartwarming episode. Ain't gonna lie, I shed a tear or two (and not only during Sheldon's Nobel speech). They've truly put some heart into this series finale, there isn't a single thing I can complain about it. The show ended on the highest possible note.
I was prepared to be disappointed by the lack of guest stars in the final episode, but then Buffy the Vampire Slayer :heart:
Twelve seasons is a big chunk of life, and I'm glad to have The Big Bang Theory being a part of mine for this long. I will miss these guys.
This was a really good episode. Glad we got that quitting nonsense out of the way. I'm sorry about Adam. He was one of the main dudes on The Unit and I liked having him around.
Ever so often 9-1-1 nails it, this one really got me good. 8.5/10
Probably the writers take mushrooms themselves and what we see is the result of their trip
A fitting episode as a farewell to Ducky. Not overly unnecessarily sappy but had the right amount of nostalgia and flashbacks. Nice touch either way with Tony showing up for the funeral but a little surprised that more cast from the past didn’t show.
I don't like sand. It's coarse and rough and irritating and it gets everywhere.
I wish I could just..wish away my feelings.
Probably the best Branagh Poirot movie so far, mostly by virtue of not having the ugly, plastic sheen of the previous 2 movies. This one captures the old school filmmaking style Branagh is going for pretty authentically, and the visuals are easily the best thing about this movie. With that being said, the final result is still nothing to write home about. While the characters and acting are generally ok, the dialogue and mystery are once again unexciting and lack a distinct artistic flair. Add to that a sluggish pace and poorly executed touches of horror (really unnecessary if you’re not willing to lean into that influence in a creative way), and you have a movie that is overall pretty forgettable and dull.
4.5/10
Apparently, Adam Driver has now reached the Nic Cage stage of his career.
