Man I hate that trope they've used in the ending, it's always so stupid and annoying and feels like a cop out. Seriously.
On an unrelated note, think of all the inflation that's going to happen because this huge amount of money just went into circulation. I hope they'll address that in the last three episodes.
without a doubt the one black mirror episode that has deeply, genuinely, without a fucking doubt tore at my soul and disturbed me to the rawest
THIS IS THE SHOW'S BEST EPISODE
the season was weak, but this and USS Callister are genuine GEMS, this build up perfectly, it's a rollercoaster of emotions and has such a perfect ending, devastating but somehow relieving.
A stupidly addictive show. I don't even watch television, so naturally I hold a strong disdain for reality shows. This one came at me like a sucker punch. It captures genuine and mundane moments between people, from intimate conversations to cooking meals together. It's well-edited and well-paced, occasionally interrupted with fun commentary by a panel of comedians. Ironically, for a show without a script, it has it's share of "character development" and twists. All Hail Yuto Handa.
Now we're talking! I especially liked how everyone around June acknowledges how risky the idea is and how she's fresh out of fucks to give. Hopefully Lawrence won't get cold feet once he realizes the enormity of what she's proposing.
And I'm guessing this will be Serena's last mistake. She went for broke while completely ignoring how spineless Fred is and has always been. Given the choice between having power and having a family, knowing what we know about him, betting on 'family' seems crazy... Then again, Gilead is partially her vision, so I shouldn't put it past her.
It's a nice parallel, two husbands being put on the spot and having to choose between their statuses or their wives and their happiness/well-being.
The next callback that should make an appearance has to be Nick and his campaign, right?
Boring AF episode! Nothing happened.
I don't have an issue with lowkey bottle episodes, which this definitely was, but there were such flaws in this general setup. Why would they leave June, a woman who has repeatedly shown herself to be rebellious and against everything Gilead stands for, left unsupervised with ofMatthew and her unborn child? Children are surely the most precious thing to Gilead, so to have no-one in the room with June seemed like a contrivance to allow her to do the things she did this episode.
Also, on a fundamental level, I don't understand how (what looked like) a gunshot injury to ofMatthew's shoulder rendered her brain dead.
This show is definitely on a bit of a messy downward spiral of late, which is a shame. It feels meandering with no overarching narrative direction. It's lucky the production values and cast are so terrific. Hopefully things will turn around for the season's closing episodes.
I have never seen a movie like this before ...it is really fresh n funny but sometimes a little bit tiring ... overall it was ok.
An unexpected gem. To say anything beyond it's kind of about a homicidal tyre will spoil it. The anthropomorphism instilled in the tyre is superb.
I think people will either love it for it originality or hate it because of the concept.
I can't even begin to put into words here but the prosthetic and makeup division is not only good, it is groundbreaking. The bodies on the later stages of radiation poisoning were absolutely terrifying, it literally gave me chills in the spine, when it shows the firefighter and the wife inside the plastic.
I really wish the season was longer. Really loved how it showed how teens use technology nowadays. Overall pretty great show.
Netflix is really killing it with these international shows. They are 2 for 2 for german shows IMO which is saying a lot seeing how 95% of german TV is absolute shite.
Worst season. Completly superfluous and unnecessary. Plots are fetched and bored.
Too bad...
Worst season to date. Very uninspired and cliche.
update after Season2:
They addressed that Mistress May is not an experienced dominatrix and that she didn't have Pete's consent in season 1. In my opinion this had to be addressed and I hope they keep showing what she did wrong, her way of learning to get better at her job and to develop healthy relationships without her domme side getting in the way.
I like the direction season 2 took and hope they will dive deeper into these characters and why they act like they do. Better than season 1 for me. To be fair, I mostly got stuck with this show because I love Pete/Carter, his Roommate Frank and the German man-servant Rolph, but I start to like Tiff as well.
Paul, creaks a little here and there, but it's consistent, bold, and appetizing as a comedy with a buddy movie spirit and a good dose of sci-fi satire.
Great documentary! However, after watching the Hulu version, this version seamed disjointed with it's back 'n forth style of storytelling. The Hulu version is more a linear timeline, digging into who Billy was before the festival and some of his other failed companies before telling the viewer about the Fyre Festival. The Hulu version also has interviews with Billy himself as well as his girlfriend which are even more revealing.
Also, it's good to know that the Netflix version was produced in coordination with the social media company which put on the Fyre Festival - F**K Jerry Media. I found it interesting how the Netflix version mostly glossed over their involvement while the Hulu version had an interview with the actual designer of all the social media elements from FJM. He gave a lot more insight into their involvement, which is very interesting.
All in all, I'd recommend watching the Hulu version first, and then watching this version.
WHAT?!! NO BROWN COATS??!!!!! What a gyp!!!
Not my usual choice of film but I actually really enjoyed it! Very very funny and even though I'm not a batman fan I followed all of the batman related jokes with ease. Want to re-watch.
Wonderfully animated, funny take on the Batman universe with characters you expect to see and many you don't, hello Jaws! A lot of the jokes will fly over kids heads but the constant bombardment of wisecracks means this doesn't matter. It seems the Lego movies will run and run (on tiny blocky legs) if they match the quality of this film, where everything is indeed awesome.*
Beautiful ending to an amazing series. Definitely one of the best shows out there.
Is there a word for when you're relieved, happy and a bit sad, all at once?
For me, the best shows are the ones that leave you wanting more, and this will definitely be the case here. The story is finished in a satisfactory way but I also think that the side characters were so entertaining that their stories could have been told as well. At the same time I'm also relieved these stories weren't told since it's hard to keep it balanced in a way that it doesn't start to drag on for too long, meaning that the show gets to fade to black at its peak.
Thanks to everyone involved that made this happen - even Netflix, for listening to reason and not denying us a proper farewell.
Good, but not quite there, i think it could had a little more thought making this to fit what the viewer wants and expand the choices to not be a dead end and have to go back.
This is definitely getting a second season and I'm all up for it. The cinematography is gorgeous and the soundtrack fits perfectly with its themes. It addresses important topics that should be discussed amongst teenagers in such a natural, easy way.
The whole cast does a great job. I'll never get tired of saying that Asa Butterfield is a fantastic actor and deserves to get more recognition urgently.
the show should've ended with all of them dying due to the asbestos exposure
i dont know about u guys but asa butterfield AND gillian anderson? ive never been so on-board before
UPDATE: just finished it and MAN you all need to watch this. its a mastery of crushing cliches and good writing!
I’ve never been a Sandra Bullock fan, but I found her performance in Bird Box rather incredible. In fact, the whole cast was superb. Great execution. My favourite thriller of 2018.
The ending was quite excellent, hinting subtly that perhaps things were not what they seemed. Did she make it, or were things just too good to be true? The idyllic paradise in the midst of the apocalypse, survivors lounging on the grass, enjoying carefree conversation? Oooooh, I don’t know ...
Went in with low expectations and was pleasantly surprised that this was a solid thriller. I cared more about the flashbacks then the current day story. The concept is interesting but nothing we haven't seen before. An easy recommendation since it's on Netflix.
Amazing episode and OMG the Tardis is just amazing!! Really love it, can't wait to see what adventures they'll have
Just finished watching this amazing show!
Great to see the new team work together to make things happen.
Good to see Graham connect with his Step Son even though he doesnt want Graham to connect with him.
Can't wait to see if we get to meet those two "racers" again as they obviously wanted to bring the doctor and the others with them
Anyways this was an amazing second episode of Dr Who more than what I expected with this episode and I'm hoping to see more!
P.S: Loving that new Tardis Design.
You don't get aliens in Sheffield!!
Quite enjoyed the first episode, enjoyed Jodie Whitaker's quirky style.
