Hold up… this episode was fantastic! Can anyone deny this season is better than the first?
I enjoyed this, way better than I had been led to believe
My feelings about Serena are so drastically contradictory. On the one hand, I love her. She's a strong, smart, confident woman and I cheer when she stands up for herself. On the other hand, she's helping promote these horrible ideals and standards that belittle women and keep them oppressed (herself included) Girl, what are you doing?
Also, people do such horrible, monstrous things in the name of God and religion. And not only in fiction, but in reality too. Such savages. And such hypocrites. Making up any sort of excuses to justify all their wrongdoings and suit their own needs and interests.
But I loved that Canada is depicted as the place where people are rational and kind, in opposition to the crazies that have control of the US. I wonder if the writers did that on purpose or if it's like that in the book . Maybe the author of the book had some kind of premonition LOL
What was the moral of this story? That there is no moral in Hollywood? Also the grown-ups are even worse than the kids. Seriously. Eli Roth goes from being so annoyed with their performances to being super enthusiastic. Like wtf?! Joslyn thrusting all over Eli Roth was a cringe fest. Why was this drama with Joslyn's ex introduced at all? And then she says Tedros is the love of her life? What in the actual hell? Why did we all watch this? Why was this made? This is not serious.
Another nice episode.
I really liked the idea of it (getting blackmailed and not knowing what your blackmailer actually wants) and the plot twist at the end was great! I honestly didn't expect that. By now I'm used to paying attention and I usually have a lot of theories and try to find subtle clues, but somehow I didn't see that one coming. I was so naive and thought the main character was really just masturbating. I just started to get skeptical when he even agreed to rob a bank, but I still couldn't figure out what's exactly going on.
By the way, if you rewatch the beginning you might notice the scene with the little girl which seems creepy in retrospect. But at that point I really thought it was to show that he's just a nice young guy.
Well done. Another plot twist I haven't seen coming like that. And of course the acting was incredible again :)

The most endearing moment of the entire series may when Avon agrees to pay for Cutty's boxing equipment. An insignificant but very sincere moment. It also highlights the underlying difference between Barksdale and Bell: Avon is putting money back into the community, Stringer is only focused on getting it out. Not that Avon's motives are completely altruistic but maybe he was the better dude.
When I was a little girl my mother used to dress me up like a little doll. And, I was always a little doll, waiting for someone to play with me. You know, when you’re empty inside, and you have no direction you’ll end up in some crazy places, right? But you’ll still be lost.
David Fincher found retired in his home.
Legitimately A-tier Black Mirror - it's been a while. Maybe even top 5 episodes for me. It has the feeling of the first two seasons, British pseudo-cynicism and the darkest modern TV has to offer, while also being something the show has never attempted before.
It felt like Charlie Brooker wrote this one from a dark place, especially with that digustingly evil ending.
FOR YOUR FILM,
MOM
Seven episodes in and nothing is happening based on trailers and episode 1 opening scene.
In one way it’s like Lost, all about a single shock & awe each episode to get people hocked. I’m sure they will introduce The Others & some dark force that don’t want the people to leave.
There’s some good character development but most of the show is filled with slow dialog. Feels like it’s dragging.
Anyway I’m watching just to see if something happens. However I doubt anything special will happen and they’ll make us wait for season 2. At which point they’ll throw in more shocks which will open more questions. And push to season 3.
So glad this is back and that we didn't have to wait 2+ years for it, like most shows now, miss this chaotic blessing of a show
Loved Marwa being all kissy with Guillermo, after the show just established she was wished by Nandor to like everything he likes.
Glee makes no sense anymore. Sue is the biggest Klaine shipper? Seriously? Rachel and Sam? For real? And what the hell did they do to Beiste? I am sick of this nonstop changing of the personality of characters. Remember when Sam used to be smart? Or when Beiste said: "Deep down inside, where no-one can see, I'm just a girl."? Or that time when Schue did know Spanish? I feel like the writers got too lazy to come up with scenes that are actually funny and not a complete nonsense. I am so glad that this season is a short one and - thank God - the final one.
Yes, I can stop watching it, but I've put up with it for so long that now I have to finish it.
WTF??? I'm obviously not anywhere near the end yet and have zero knowledge of this case before this series, so I have no idea how it turned out -- but regardless of whether Steven Avery actually did murder this woman or not, I hope they fired EVERYONE in the Manitowoc County Sheriff's Department and cancelled out their pensions, and that this Len Kachinsky joker was disbarred. Wow. This is beyond a comedy of errors, because so much of this was willful and deliberate and done with malice. Ughhh it's sickening.
"I got a bad feeling about this flight." - Hurley LMFAO!
This is pretty bad for a "scary" movie. Everything was so predictable and any scary parts were due to random crap jumping out with loud music playing. This is a joke of a scary movie. If you want to be really scared, go watch Event Horizon late at night.
I'm really sick of the whole "porn is evuuuuhl" angle that this film was pursuing. All I saw was a bunch of nice but not very smart girls making some bad decisions and then blaming everybody but themselves afterwards - one went as far as to compare herself to a rape victim because she voluntarily took part in a scene she later regretted.
I got mad more at the weak support networks those girls had than the porn industry, the worst people in the whole film were one girl's family and friends - her obese mother and "music producer"(read: umemployed) boyfriend making her feel like shit and pressuring her into stopping her career, essentially calling her a prostitute as insult and her boyfriend not even defending her when people at a university party were making fun of her and looking up her porn.
This film glossed over some real questionable practices in porn and instead just highlighted that yes, a lot of 18 to 25 year old girls make mistakes and don't think things through. Hell, one of them thought she couldn't get pregnant if guys pulled out.
"Swear to me, swear to me that everything you said about the fireflies is true"
"I swear"
...
"Okay"
Ahhhh
This is a way stronger season than S01. I seriously thought Tanya was a goner for a minute, I'm glad she is not. And how tables have turned for Harper and Ethan. I have a soft spot of watching Aubrey Plaza getting a sweet revenge, so let's go for the final!
From an atheist point of view, the creepyness level is over 9000...
Starts really good with a very good first season. The second one was ok as well. But after that it goes straight to hot dumpster garbage. They changed the writers or something as after second season it gets progressively bad with a even worse series finale.
I can't believe in what I just saw. At each word that these state men issued, my anger just grew.

Uhhh I don’t feel Otis and Maeve together :rolling_eyes:
God bless the super trashy show that was my first exposure to queer people like me c:
Metalhead is a work of art.
One character, hardly no dialogue and shot in Black and White - yet it's one of the most stunning and thought-provoking things I've ever watched.
Usually, most queens grow on me over time, but with the elimination, all I can think is, "Crap, I have to watch Luxx next week again too!" Confidence is one thing, but her extreme arrogance is just obnoxious.
