great plot twists
didn't find out what does u.n.c.l.e mean tholoading replies
It's (almost literally) spelled out at the very beginning of the ending credits. Watch the video carefully.
Hey Trakt! This show has not ended. It's super clear at the final episode. There is gonna be a second season. When? I don't know, but it's super obvious. And we all wanted it!

Correction: The final episode was meant to shout, "Give us a second season!" A lot of anime end as if they're going to continue, and then don't get the funding necessary. This was such a case, because it sold so poorly.
very promising start. Looking forward to the next ep.

"start"? This is the season finale, lol.
There are only 20 episodes in Season 1 according to the following sources, not 21 like listed on Trakt:

1x21 is back for more… I verified TVDB's listing, and initiated a data refresh here. If it doesn't clear up soon I'll open a ticket.
Season 2 (Astral Ocean) - a bad sequel and, taken standalone, a bad show. Awful directing, annoying one-dimensional characters, a messy, convoluted plot. Overall, just bad.
Even if you liked E7, I wouldn't recommend this.loading replies
Shouldn't this rating and review be attached to season 2 specifically?
2 hours premier of session 3 was postponed because of the shooting in Orlando. My prayers to the families.
Hope with have soon a new premiere date.loading replies
Easy to see why it was postponed, now that I've watched the episode. Too much too soon for the original airdate.
Convinced to spend an hour watching this absolute pile of crap by literally my oldest friend. Am now questioning whether she's really a friend. But oh, did we laugh at this. It's SO BAD.
@LuckyNumber78, it's your turn.

I guess that proves to me that @-mentions work as expected. Great tool for challenges, Trakt. A+
nice but dont get how the FBI easily get caught out by road blocks and people escape from hospital beds?...

That happened in episode 1.
The Ending

That, it was. Ah, well.
Good second episode, to see if they are well, 5 is a badass

@juliosoft >"episode interesting" >6/10
I find that quite interesting indeed. :)
Starts off pretty bad then all of a sudden you've been awake for 20 hours and binge watched the entire thing.
Persevere through those initial few bad episodes and you're in for a right treat.

Sounds about right. I was quite disappointed in the pilot, but now that I've finished S1 (so far) I'm glad I gave the show a second (and third, fourth, fifth, and sixth) chance.
There's a lot of implied drama, but the screen time is spent mostly on obnoxious guy from other school calling Harada "princess" constantly. Meh. Put us inside Gou's head, ffs!

@bouncyeyeball in this episode bro. I'm commenting on this episode only smh

Mockingjay Part 2's biggest mistake is being completely faithful to the book, considering that it is the worst one of the trilogy. They had the chance to make the story better but chose to stick to what they had. Being the final chapter of the story, it has emotional bits, but miserably (and unfortunately) fails to sell them, rushing the scenes which we were supposed to remember the most. However, its political and action turmoils are its best parts and were beautifully developed. After all, piecing the four movies together, it remains a good story.

In fairness, I'd bet that Suzanne Collins had creative power over the screenplay and vetoed any rewrite of the ending (or would have), even though the ending is super cringe-y. Just cutting the time skip into the future would have made it better. And an open ending might have been just what the series needed, considering that there's the potential for a fifth film, according to Jon Feltheimer (Lionsgate CEO). But we're stuck with this.

— @aag's review (https://trakt.tv/comments/62697, and we need proper internal link markup on Trakt!)Seriously. The big dramatic moments are unbelievably rushed—there's no time to dig into them. There's too much focus on bad CGI and not enough on characters. Basically every character is 2D at best, except maybe Katniss and Peeta. But that's also due to sticking true to the book. None of the characters in the books were particularly well fleshed out, either, as I recall (from reading them 3 ½ years ago).
I also found the story very predictable. Obviously there's some amount of subconscious influence from having read the books, but it's also just absolutely clear when the big surprises/twists are going to happen, and what they'll be. They end up not being surprising at all. (Not to belabor the point, but the book had this problem too.)
My other big issue—which applies to the whole series—is that we barely see anything that happens away from Katniss. I know it's quite common in YA novels to present a limited first-person perspective from the protagonist's point of view, but in a big political saga like this I feel like that severely limits the storytelling.

@aag "romance bullsh*t" is right. YA novel or not, that was much too heavily emphasized. (Now that you fixed it I can edit the brackets out of my quote :D)
Watched this episode for the two minutes at the beginning featuring Sasha Craig, AKA Power Rangers Lightspeed Rescue's yellow ranger.
Not the worst use of an hour, but I could have used another scene or two with her, especially had it been used as a bookend.

>watching anything just because of a short scene with an actor you like
GREAT use of time. :P
They want you to take the rolls! Yet another great tribute to Boy Meets World. And to have to love Riley's reaction to Pluto. It's how we all felt!

I was so happy they included the rolls reference!

Trakt (on their Discover page) should list this as Star Trek Universe and not Star Trek Timeline. It's not a timeline list.Original comment before realizing that Trakt didn't author the list themselves:
This list is sh*t. They've listed the order in which the show/movies were created and not the actual timeline of the Star Trek itself.loading replies
@abstractals Something about taking the high road. Thanks for your support. :)

@stryjewski The list page header clearly shows my profile summary, but I accept that you likely scrolled right past the header (as I often do) to get to the content. I don't think that believing the list to be site-created excuses the personal attack (the people behind this site are individuals, too, after all)—but apology accepted.
FWIW I've edited the list description to reflect that it's strictly a release-order list. I can't change how Trakt's "Discover" page displays the list, though, sadly. I had no say in its featured status—just found out it was featured one day when suddenly I started getting likes on the list at an alarming rate! :)
Aaron's mic is clearly just a wired vocal mic with no cable plugged in. The XLR connector pins are visible in a number of shots.
Mildly cute episode, but the security guard and Lizzie's mom stretch believability too far.
PS: What's the difference between Aaron Carter and Justin Bieber? Seriously, they're practically the same person. https://i.ytimg.com/vi/U0lFdlul_-Y/hqdefault.jpg

@justin At times like this, when the URL auto-linker fails, it would be great to have manual Markdown link syntax.
The second episode was pretty good as well as we got introduced to more of the secondary characters. I'm pumped for the next episode as that is when the fireworks will start to go off a bit (as shown by that nice little preview we got at the end). I definitely prefer the anime to the manga so far, especially since nothing is being skipped and the art & sound of the adaptation is quite strong.

I hope you used "fireworks" on purpose! It's a very appropriate term to use when talking about this show.
Finally a decent episode of the first 3 seasons

@jeanduarte You've got 5 comments spread across 70 minutes that all say the same thing in two languages… I'm guessing Trakt was glitchy that day? :)
I thought it out of Saul's character to let himself be talked out by Carrie on the runway. He should've stuck to his principles and gone out with a bang. Disappointed with that scene. Otherwise, such a great episode.

@jamatiknakmuay It's called sarcasm.
A bit of a letdown this season finale, but two things were awesome IMO: Quinn's letter being interrupted by Saul wanting a minute with Allison, and the scene where Saul gets his really bad-ass revenge. The thwarting of the terrorists' plot went down way to fast though, not really consistent with the amount of time they spent building it up.

@jelmerf "a minute with Allison"? Saul wanted to talk to Carrie.

Thank God Gracie is dead. She needed to go.

@d2dyno Gracie's not dead… Her name was Lindsey. But yes, she needed to go. I'm perfectly happy about it.
