No better ending for an episode than Jessica ex machina.
I haven't talked about the opening credits yet, so here goes: they're amazing. And the music is very Avengers-y. It has that larger-than-life, epic feel to it.
Danny is so fucking annoying, acting like those three strangers he just met are supposed to drop everything and join his mystic quest. But it was interesting to see his world view clash with those of Luke and Jessica, who are both very pragmatic and don't want any part of all the supernatural stuff. And poor Matt. He's so traumatized. He and Elektra were kind of my OTP, so it's incredibly heartbreaking for me to see him like that, still reeling from his loss.
Of course that fucker Bakuto is alive. I hate him so much. He's an awfully weak villain and the actor who plays him definitely didn't go in the right direction with his performance. It's like he was aiming for the Charismatic Bad Guy, only he's yet to show any actual charisma. I want to roll my eyes whenever this guy is on screen.
So we got all the people that the Defenders care about in one room and they didn't interact with each other? That's bullshit.
I don't like how the others ganged up on Matt because of Elektra. Tone down that holier-than-thou attitude. You all have your secrets. And it's not like any of you would've acted differently if you were in his situation.
The overhead shot of Elektra curling up on Matt's bed surrounded by gray with her red costume spilling out from underneath her coat looked like some kind of a baroque painting. I would totally frame it and hang it on a wall in my living room. It was exquisite.
If only we lived in an alternate universe where Iris actually died last season.
Our name is West-Allen and we are the fastest couple alive. To the outside world, we are a happy couple, but secretly with the help of our non-communication we fight crime and repress our feelings. In an attempt to understand what happened over six months, we got an appointment for couple's therapy and we saw all the problems that we have. But we won't let that happen. Barry's gonna do everything in his power to listen to me, and we're the only ones fast enough to solve our drama. We are the Flash.
I'll admit Maggy's story was kinda sad.
Rory's prison break scene was great!!
Absolutely great episode, action, confrontation, background politics and the ongoing "runtime error", all at just the right composition.
Young Ray is soooo precious!
Barry using his speed to do research. Barry acting like a friend to Cisco and his girl. Barry not brooding and having the weight of the world on his shoulders. Barry legitimately caring about his team and calling them family. Yep, I'm here for this. This is The Flash that I fell in love with and want to see. Good episode.
Which proves, yet again, take Westallen out of focus, Barry and the show shine.
So, is Westworld the official Prequel to Altered Carbon now?
Forget about Cpt. Marvel. Fury should be contacting Talbot not her AHAHA
I have a better title for this episode: "Canaries and handshakes".
I actually like the idea of a heart eating unicorn but I would have liked more Woodstock less time agency. It was also nice for them to give an old time traveling pro like Biff a job as Nate's dad.
It's time for Constantine to stop playing hard to get. Your show was canceled. You have no job. Time to jump aboard ship.
A nicer ending than the books. The book ending left me with more questions than answers. This ending is more satisfying. Yet still too faithful to the books ending. While it’s a more happy ending there’s still questions in the end that were never answered.
Spoiler warning: For instance. Season 1 teased us season long that the Quagmire parents were the Baudelaire parents. Yet, now that we know they aren’t. The writers wrote them out basically and they are never reunited with their children.
I guess since it’s a coming of age story. About children learning to not need the help from grown-ups and growing up. So just like the books. The Baudelaires and Quagmires aren’t reunited with parents that are teased to be alive.
Wow, those flashback scenes added a whole new dimension to the story.
Apparently Ressler knows Red better than Liz
Dembe keeping Liz's secret makes no sense- there's no incentive for him to keep it from Red much less lie. I guess he's trying to save him the heartbreak? Sheesh. I want Red to find out soon.
I thought they would have a whole series of episodes with Red on death row, not jump to his execution. That was surprising to me.
We saw some of the old Liz here, the person from season one. I wasn't surprised that after all that she didn't end up asking him anything, but I was, of course, a bit disappointed and mildly annoyed. Maybe next episode he'll use his last words to tell her! --But probably not.
Not entirely sure if Lena is going full villain, but if so, they are already doing a much better job than David Benioff and DB Weiss.
It was so emotional at the end that I cried, even though the wigs were hideous
I am so excited for season 6 that I have already forgotten my hate for O, Clarke & Abbie xD
I'm so glad Monty got the best happy ending he could hope for. He deserved it so much. It felt bittersweet but it couldn't have went better - He could live with Harper in peace, have a family and die at an old age :')
This whole scene at the end would've been a perfect series finale. Guess we'll see the humans from that other ship on the new planet, but I hope the next season won't be immediately about starting a war with them. Instead I would like to see new animals or creatures and them building a civilization there. Of course conflicts will be unavoidable (we're still on The CW here), but please don't repeat the same storyline we've had multiple times by now.
And I hope "End Book One" doesn't mean this show will have 10+ seasons because they haven't really been brimming with original ideas lately, so I would rather have an actual ending at some point instead of a never-ending show.
human body can literally withstand so much shit.
as seen in this episode, it's terrific, horrific and shocking to see them willingly accept a fucking radioactive duty which can fuck their life up pretty good but the KFuckingGB won't take international help. what a fucked up world. we need better international relationship across the globe to survive in such catastrophic events.
Humanity must strive for a better world from every small aspect to survive as a species
fucking make the whole world pop a tab of LSD and melt into oneness
I'm running out of superlatives for this show. I continue to marvel at the historical accuracy of the events. I was waiting to see if they would recreate one of the most amazing facts about the accident...the clearing of the roof by the "biorobots". 90 seconds. 90 seconds on the roof to receive a lifetime dose of radiation. And going out on that roof wasn't voluntary. Nice government. Also, the scenes of young Pavel being forced to liquidate starving, deserted family pets was one of the saddest things I've ever watched.
The opening scene features an old woman milking a cow while being told by a soldier to leave her farm for her own safety. She tells him she's not leaving and recalls the history of her life under the iron boot of the communist system. The mention of the horrific Holodomor was shocking to me. It seems that kind of reflection on past evils (other than Hitler's Nazis) is never mentioned.
This series has pulled absolutely no punches showing the oppression and brutality of the Soviet government. I hope that support for such a system, no matter how well intended, never sees the light of day again.
Whoever talks shit about Monty deserves to be hit lbh.
ooooh I like this whole Eve & Villanelle working together vibe.
And Carolyn is COLD. Damn.
Finally after almost 20 years a real competition in town, I stopped watching WWF after they replaced the F with the E, and started watching NWA, TNA(or what ever the fuck they call it these days), ROH, NJPW,And some of the independent stuff,and many of the faces in AEW are familiar faces, I hope they get Jay Briscoe and Dalton Castle to AEW, The first show was really good not perfect because i felt there's some stuff missing, And i never heard JR saying holy shit on I commentary before lol and i been listening to JR's voice for more than 20 years, I am just happy that "Pro Wrestling" is back
This end was kinda of a mess.... What the hell happened here?! Between finding who's who and what's the anomaly, they lost me altogether...
