Hated it.
As simple as that.
Terrible way to take the series to. I mean it's not as bad as the prequels, because the acting is quite all right, but it hits so many bullshit moments where I was facepalming every other scene it's unbelievable.
"Send the dothraki first since they are barbarians"
"Dragons are our heavy artillery let's keep them flying in circles without doing NOTHING for say 2/3 of the battle. Even if they all stop before a flaming trench and sit there nearly aligned for tenths of minutes. We can not win the easy way this must be EPIC"
"It's a massive invasion of Savage, quick and merciless undead but we like to walk orderly and calmly in libraries"
"By the way, libraries are still dead silent while people are being ripped to shreds outside"
"Hey, look, Arya slipped past 4.000 undead and learned Rey's air saber trick"
"Every major character gets to live even after being surrounded by dead. (jorah and theon were already half dead - oh yeah, theon, seems Arya waited in the shadows while you were impalled too. Go team.".
Great episode, but it didn't feel like Black Mirror. It's missing the sci-fi element, the dystopian topic, the futuristic technology aspect.
Same people that have brought Mandalorian to life are behind this.
So it begs the question: Why? Why do we need this series? Why not just expand on the Mandalorian series?
It's obviously during a different timeline.. but do we really need it?
First episode is somewhat interesting, but not even close to amazing. Will give it some time because Mandalorian didn't get good till the second season, but not sure how long I'll stay interested at this point.
Bran: I can never be Lord of Winterfell, I can never be Lord of anything, I'm the Three-eyed Raven.
Also Bran: I'm the King.
The funny thing is that after the episode ended, I came here to give it some stars.
Please no more scenes with Naomi. You have an entire universe so why do you have to focus so much on the most boring character of the show.
I've really enjoyed the first 2 episodes, while others seems to more uncertain. But this is the first episode I've been worried overall about the series. The modern underworld story just isn't interesting enough - I was kinda hoping we would see more Boba Fett the Bounty Hunter, not this form of a makeshift leader.
The humans grafting droid parts onto themselves, is a new concept in the Star Wars visual world, to my knowledge but it was executed so poorly. It's the first time I've looked at anything in the Disney SW era, and thought, "that doesn't look like Star Wars".
I'm not sure where this series is really going but EP4 needs to pick up the modern underworld story in a big way.
The directors clearly think Naomi is the most interesting character, but she is absolutely the least interesting character and I abhor constantly being forced to watch her whine and flail.
Maeve is a dumb killing machine now, lol.
Contrary to what I'm sure the green muppets will claim this is not a movie about nuclear power and dangers with it. Instead it's a really good movie showing the dangers with socialism. Party elitism, political appointments of useless people to positions they they should never have been considered for and incompetence running rampant.
I didn't know they spoke such fluent English in Russia. They should've talked Russian! We have subtitles for a reason, yes?
Man, what a poor episode, lackluster after lackluster. If this is the culmination of the time and interest myself and others have invested into Game of Thrones all of these years, then it is truly unfortunate and disappointing if not almost bordering on an insult.
Such a shame that this will be the legacy of a series that once took the world by storm with its brilliant storytelling and exhilarating plot twists, hardly recognizable anymore when it parades around in a pathetic shell of its former self.
I can't say I'm excited nor even interested in the remaining episodes, at least not when this season has taught me time and again to lower my expectations as much as possible, but I hope they will at least respect what this series once was and offer a conclusion worthy of its story. sigh
fucked up ending. Fr they killed knight king so easily .
This is an absolute failure on all fronts and the fact it is so highly rated disturbs me. Easily the worst episode of this show, and this has singlehandedly destroyed any remaining faith I had for the rest of this series. What a disgrace.
I'm in love with everything about this, but reusing the Game of Thrones title theme is some bullshit. Djawadi is perfectly capable of writing something new and exciting, or an alternate orchestration at the very least.
What a disappointing ending to a great episode...
Having Howard get killed off by Lalo out of the blue is the laziest thing they could've done with his character (and the impact of Jimmy's & Kim's actions on his life). I've read a dozen more interesting scenarios on Reddit ffs...
This episode has it all, from small and forgivable mistakes such as randomly disappearing attack dogs to plot-breaking and totally unrealistic killing of characters who could have been interesting and worth keeping alive. It's clear now that the show's creators don't really understand the source material and they are now trying to improvise some fanfiction to hold their story together. They are trying too hard to add shock value by killing off characters who haven't really been developed enough for anybody to be shocked about their deaths. The episode's ending was also trying to go for shock value, but ended up quite random and unnecessary. Most actors and production values are still good as ever, but even those can't carry a flawed story.
Every time it's over I feel like I got punched in the fucking heart. And I basically start counting days till I'll be ready to watch it again. There will never be movies more soulful, profound, engaging and gripping with everything from fights and visuals to the deep meaningful connections between the characters and the explorations of grant purposes and philosophical differences. Never. I will love this eternally. I wish I could rate it more than ten. There are movies and then there's Lotr. To be honest I have no fitting words to describe this, no funny remarks or beautiful epithets and definitely no slights. I'm just thankful this exists and I got to experience watching it. I'm out.
evil cannot create anything new, they can only corrupt and destroy what is good

So many Star Wars races in a short episode did not make a worth while watch and for me overall just made it a poor drawn out experience of what in my opinion is Disney milking the franchise a little more.
@Tasa24 - While I agree with the first and third of your points, I politely disagree with your second one, in that I still have high hopes for the show, and, as such, am willing to give the writers a chance to catch their second wind. This should give them plenty of time to brainstorm some new ideas, but, on a down note, we will have to wait until next season to see if the seeds they have planted sprout and flourish, or wither and die before they've had a chance to mature.
But when you think about it, unless they find a way to expand the mythology, this is really a one or two season concept at best, unless you start killing off main cast members and replacing them, as you can only wander the backcountry so long, or dig so many holes, rinse and repeat, before your audience gets bored.
All those little service robots? Adorable! The Kid? In a space ship? Awesome! The kid eating? Cute! The kid using the force in battle? Great! The Mandalorian (the shiny one)? Cool! The little green alien man without a name? Intimidating! The other aliens? Astonishingly creative costumes and make up! Nice too look at!
The 80s Gothic Vespa/Cyberpunk gang? Stupid. Fennec? Boring! Boba? Couldn't care less!
How did they get that wrong? Constantly? I'm attached to every little service robot a lot more than to Boba...
Plus, it's a weak finale. All that alliance building, diplomacy, politics, befriending local townsmen, Boba in the back story shown as a man who became wiser and more experienced, all that parcours training was totally inconsequential. In the end, it was raw firepower of two guys in an armour and ä donated (!) beast. Yeah, I know it's stupid Star Wars and they love their lasers, but it feels pointless. Plus, the HAL killing robot's aim is extremely poor.
Funny how the episode with the least amount of flashbacks is my favourite. Unfortunately, I've come to ask myself a pressing question: Why should we (or Boba) care whether he keeps control of Mos Espa? In "Star Wars: A New Hope", we cared whether the Rebellion destroyed the Death Star because we knew the Rebellion was stationed on Yavin IV—lives were at stake.
Why should we care if Boba loses Jabba's empire? What's at stake?
7/10
That "car chase" sequence was so low energy and just plain awful!
Stephen Root... Danny Trejo... awesome cameos!
on the other hand, the gang of scooter-riding-calvin-klein-models look way too comical for this show --- wtf??
I found this to be mostly a unsatisfying ending.
This is not Nolan's best film but it's still enjoyable. I think I've seen too much time travelling films/series (and films/series that use time manipulation techniques) to find the plotline confusing and hard to follow. This Nolan film also reminded me of Doctor Who, this time, River Song's and the Doctor's relationship: the first time one member of the pair meets the other is the last day of the other member. They have a strong connection despite drifting away from each other in time. I would be interested in seeing how The Protagonist said goodbye to Neil in the future.I like that we do not know and will not know much about The Protagonist (not even his name). I could also understand Kat's character but the main villain not so much. I also like the specific time-manipulation technique the film uses, however, there are certain holes I got annoyed by. Sure, inversed people need their own oxygen to breath and wear masks, but how can they see like at all?
