I'm a simple woman, I see Matthew Goode, I watch.
Wait. What!? WTF did I just watch?
It is my opinion this show has so far got it right by ANNE RICE!!
never unseeing that first 15 mins...
Where can I see the specials ?
Less is more, it’s also for true for TV Series. Nothing ”outstanding” must happen for everything to fall in place with extraordinary grace and perfection.
Short but intense comedy. Not to be missed.
such a quick show to watch, and so worth it. I think i speak for everyone when i say sister michael is the best character.
Loki (2021)
I have been a fan boi from day one of the marvel comics...
True God of Mischief...
I am gushing over episode one...
I would actually pay Disney for this series on its own...
So grab a seat.. An enjoy...
This one episode could have been a standalone film...sooooooo many easter eggs..so good infact i am gonna watch it again..to see what i missed..
I completely disagree with almost everyone else here who think this show is no good. I thought season 1 of Picard was a fantastic series, honestly the best telling of star trek I've seen in a long long time. It wasn't perfect but it definitely wasn't as bad as half of you are making it sound. I keep seeing consistent comments saying "I watched x amount of episodes and that's all I needed to see." Yeah that's the problem, if I only watched 15 minutes of a movie I wouldn't be qualified to give my opinion on it either.
The real problem here is that people aren't satisfied with anything these days unless it's exactly how they remember it, and times have changed. Star Trek was always good about staying relevant and to act like the Federation would stay perfect forever is just naive. Thankfully Star Trek has evolved and changed with the times, even if half of it's viewers are stuck in the 80's and 90's.
I'm enjoying it so far (3 episodes in), but I want to rate it higher just because it's upsetting so many people that don't like shows about empowered women
I had high hopes for Jodie's doctor. But Chris Cinbal really had some bad scripts for her. Now its her final season and the wrting gets good. I think Jodie did the best that she could with bad scripts.
Here's what I was thinking, in order, as I watched this movie:
1. Not enough Harley
2. Slow
3. Not enough Harley
4. For an action movie, this is much too sedate
5. Not enough Harley
6. Boring plot. In fact...what is the plot?
7. Ok, Harley escapes and kicks ass to Louis Prima. Sweet!
8. Remind me again what the plot is?
9. Damn, still another hour to go
10. Remind me again what the plot is?
11. Oh. Right. A giant bubble gum coloured starfish cyclops...and some rats.
12. Wait, wasn't that Peter Capaldi earlier with the crayons sticking out of his head?
13. When did this become a Doctor Who movie?
14. Hang on, Bill the Cat wasn't a DC character!!!
14. WTF?!?!?
The movie, Interview with the Vampire, has always been a fav. After the first episode, I immediately nearly forgot the movie and fell in love with Anderson's Louis and Reid's Lestat. Everything about Rolin Jones' interpretation feels right. The era change, the age differences for Claudia, having Louis be Black. Top notch story-telling so far. Looking forward to following this story.
Incredible command of pacing, superb acting and insane chemistry. An abuse relationship hadn't been depicted so intensely in a lot of seasons. Top notch TV in the technical department as well, might easily be one of the best shows of 2022.
An absolute must of this season.
Enjoyed every episode,can't wait for season 2 and hope there will be more than seven episodes.
An intelligent adaptation of the Anne Rice novels that manages to be faithful but at the same time update the story and its characters. It introduces interesting elements of reflection and builds much more complex characters, who are made credible by the splendid performances. The destructive and violent romanticism is shown without limits, and especially the appearance of the new Claudia is brutal and ironic. There is a dark sense of humor that accompanies an outstanding series.
Looks like a slow burn TV show. So far, I feel it's a good pace and hopefully will dive into the backstory of both characters. There is certainly chemistry between the two leads. I'm looking forward to the impending conflict between the master and his apprentice.
They are vampires, it is Anne Rice of course there is going to be an LGBTQI+ theme. Vampiric sensuality, passion and blood and seduction games are not subject to Sexual Orientations as such, that has been done practically forever.
My recommendations, forget about racism and the change of skin because this actor is one hundred percent Louis, it is his personality, the characters at the moment are completely Anne Rice; there are three chapters and there is still a lot of cooking ahead, but for now it is highly recommended,
You will not find a more vile or offensive piece of anti-abortion propaganda out there. I don’t know how accurate this is, but apparently, the actors weren’t shown the entire script during production, but when they got their hands on it, they dropped out really fast. They didn’t know what they were involved in. Talk about propaganda.
Nick, man...you’ve gone on record saying you tried to portray both sides of the argument, and sure...time was given to both the pro-choice and pro-life sides, but it’s told through the veil of someone who sees pro-choicers as satan’s army. They are the “bad guys” so to speak. The entire atmosphere when they show up on screen is pretty menacing. Overbearingly so, and the pro-lifers are always seen with that soft, acoustic, innocent music...as they are all these angelic do-gooders, and with any good pro-life persuasion essay, you had to use the smoking gun of the argument, and went all out with shots of unnecessary gore. Here’s the thing. Abortion is not fun. It’s not supposed to be. Pro-choice does not mean pro-abortion. It’s also not supposed to be pretty. Heck, pregnancy and giving birth is also rather gory. Have even SEEN a placenta come out of a woman’s body? Well, I have. And I thought it was a liver and was appalled that doctors and nurses were casually removing it from my wife’s body!
The website for this film has a fact-checking list of things that did and did not happen in real life, and while I went through the list, I don’t think any of it is important. I never questioned what happened, that’s all well-documented. I just didn’t see it as menacing or malicious. One, politics are crooked with literally everything they do. I expect nothing less, but two...when these politicians went all out to try to suade the vote to pro-choice...I didn’t see that as deceit. I saw that as a vigilante act of someone trying to do what’s right for someone other than themselves.
Another thing...there is so much unnecessary exposition in this film. The director narrates everything, sometimes for no reason. Like, you see the supreme court justices voting on the case, and then the director narrates it by saying, and that's how they voted. I KNOW, MAN....I'm watching the movie, so I saw them do it, and this happens constantly, and I felt like I was being talked down to, like I was too dumb to understand the details of the scene. Let the scene flow organically. Tell the story, but don't go overboard.
And this is the last thing that I have to say, but probably most important. Any film on Roe v Wade or abortion AT ALL should only be written and directed by a female, NOT a conservative male. That is the last thing a story like this needs, and that’s exactly what we have in Roe v Wade. Even though I was born and spent half my life as a pro-lifer…I changed once I stopped thinking about myself – and I’ve come a long way...but no matter how far I go from now until the day I die, I will never be able to understand this topic as much as a woman would. Which is why a man should never direct a movie on abortion. No matter your political stance on it.
So, yeah.. I tried to be as professional and technical as possible, but guys...people watch film with bias. You can’t get away from it, and in this case, bias effects you more than anything else.
Stay away

You know why I like this competition style reality show so much? There is NO drama between contestants. Its a nice change if you watch other competition style reality shows where every 20 min = Drama.
This was a great series of books, that, in many ways, established a genre. I think it will be a great series, as well. It has the feel of an epic. Amazon has given it a healthy budget and Robert Jordan’s canon is extensive. These first three episodes had to cover a great deal of ground in a very short amount of time but, unlike other commentators, I feel they did it successfully. The characters are engaging. The cast is excellent and their performances are solid. The venues outside of Prague are spectacularly beautiful. Now, we just have to wait for the series to drop episode by episode (my least favourite way to stream). If it keeps this up the ratings should just climb. I give these first three episodes an 8 (great) out of 10. [Fantasy Adventure]
This show is especially interesting if you have some prior knowledge of the Northern Ireland conflict. It's a funny show regardless, but it carries with it a fascinating historical background
This was much better than I expected. If you like Dan Brown's books you should not miss this.
If you never read them but like mystery, enigmas, crime and some adventure, give this show a chance.
In case you were wondering if this is an accurate portrayal of what it's like to live on or close to the rez...We live on the Nisqually... they are nailing their roles lol
we love to see another queen join the MCU.
I really really loved the first episode. It was well directed and the character developing well done, not the usual bad takes we've seen in a lot of shows. I hope they keep them as good as EP.1 .
I’m so excited for this
