people are hating it cause it's TOO GAY... I guess I'll watch it twice.
Very slow starter and at one point I had to keep myself from turning it off. The second half of the movie is much stronger thgh and really enjoyable. Music wise there wasn't really a song that stood out, although Idina Menzel's Love Power will surely grow on me
The haters are going to hate this movie. Mostly because they just default to hating Captain Marvel and Ms Marvel. Come in just looking for things to hate. But this movie is a LOT of fun. Go in in a light hearted mood. Numerous things had me laughing out loud in the cinema.
The end could have been wrapped up a bit faster.
And OMFG THE MID-CREDITS SCENE!!! OMGOMGOMOGOD!!! (there is no post-credits scene).
A harrowing episode with excellent writing and directing that makes for a very accurate portrayal of what goes on in those first few hours after a loved one dies.
Additional note: There is no background music anywhere in this entire episode.
The show is back on our screens and our heroes are back on Earth! That scene where the team stopped for a second to just enjoy the sun and the fresh air was so beautiful to me. They spent so much time trapped inside a crowded, grim space, so getting to go outside (and more importantly, actually having an outside to go to) must have felt so good. It left the biggest smile on my face.
Deke is alive! It caught me by surprise. His reactions to everything around him were so precious and hilarious. If I were in his shoes, I think I'd hug trees too.
Daisy Johnson in a suit is a sight that I was not prepared for and I pretty much flatlined as soon as I saw her. Damn, girl. How is it even possible for one person to be so attractive? Like, we get it. Tone it down, please. It's bad for my heart.
Piper, you traitorous bastard. You should know better than to trust the military. Did she really expect them to treat Coulson's team fairly? Come on. They want Coulson's head on a stick. They won't be satisfied with anything less.
YoYo getting her arms cut off was traumatic. I did not expect it to happen, I thought Kasius was the one who did that. What a plot twist. I hope Fitz designs some sick prosthetics for her like he did with Coulson.
Ruby seemed so out of place at the beginning of the episode, I couldn't imagine how a moody teen was supposed to fit into the storyline. Now that I know, I'm emotionally scarred for life. Thanks, I hate it. General Hale is just a fucking delight, isn't she? I can't believe I'm saying this, but I miss Talbot. At least he didn't keep his kid locked up in a cell.
Carl Creel? They're really bringing back a lot of old storylines, aren't they? We've already had Gravitonium and T.A.H.I.T.I. this season, and now this. And we also got the team recounting all the horrible things that happened to them, including Simmons jumping out of the Bus in "FZZT" to save the team, FitzSimmons getting dropped to the bottom of the ocean by Ward at the end of season 1, and May being forced to dance in that sparkly, silver dress in season 2 (that made me snicker).
Did anyone else caught Noah saying something about an Asgardian spotted on Earth? That's gotta be Thor when he came looking for Odin at the beginning of Ragnarok, right? I kind of like the fact that they're only making very small references to the movies now, since the movies don't acknowledge this show's existence in any way, why should it be the other way around?
Good episode overall, I'm pumped to see where we're gonna go from here. See you next week!
"Get pregnant. Use your body to give the world more Jake."
I'm not sure how i'm gonna keep watching the show without the world's best boss Michael Scott :(
That Baby Yoda is too damn cute!! OMG I laughed so hard when he pressed the button after being told not to touch anything.
HANDS DOWN TO THE SASSIER TRIO ON TELEVISION: CAPTAIN COLD, HEATWAVE AND WHITE CANARY.
HAPPY 100TH EPISODE, EVERYONE!
I just want to say this: I'm so happy, so proud and so, so grateful. I've been in love with this show since I first started watching it 3.5 years ago. The fact that we're here today celebrating this wonderful milestone is a privilege, one that I wasn't sure we'd get this time last year. Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. has defied the odds time and time again. There has been so much working against it: backlash from hardcore Marvel fans way back when it started; ratings getting lower year after year; ABC itself not giving a shit about it, dumping it first in their worst slot at 10 PM on Tuesdays, and then moving it to Fridays, where most shows go to die; finally, having a completely undeserved reputation of the bastard child of the MCU. Despite all of that, it's still going strong, reaching new creative heights with every season, giving us awesome content, and keeping us on the edge of our seats. Maybe it never quite became the smash hit that Marvel surely expected it to be, but all of us who have stuck with it through thick and thin know just how special it is. "We have a small but active fanbase", indeed.
This episode was beautiful. I don't even know where to start. I think I'll just make a list of everything that stood out to me, it'll help me organize my thoughts a little:
Daisy and Coulson's relationship is absolutely incredible. I started crying as soon as Daisy teared up and I didn't really stop until the end of the episode. Chloe Bennet broke my heart. She's come such a long way since the pilot and grown so much as an actress.
Fake Deathlok trying to convince Phil that it's all in his head gave me major anxiety, mostly because for one horrifying second I imagined them ending the show like this. Just "psych! It was a fantasy all along!". They wouldn't do that, right? RIGHT???
Real Deathlok showed up! Yet another old character to have come back this season!
I saw a theory circulating around Tumblr that Deke is a descendant of FitzSimmons. I was sceptical. But guess what, it's true! Which means there are some cute, genius FitzSimmons babies coming! It does raise some questions, though. They'll have to send Deke back to the future eventually, right? Will he even exist if the team saves the world, or will he get erased? As usual with the time traveling stuff, my head hurts.
Goddamn. FitzSimmons. Wedding. This was where I went from low-key crying to just straight-up bawling. They couldn't have chosen anything better to celebrate the 100th episode with. It was perfect. The setting, Coulson marrying them, their vows... Jemma looked stunning, Fitz looked so handsome (shame about that kilt though, I think they should've gone for it), Elizabeth and Iain's acting was out of this world, as usual. I'm so happy for those two nerds.
What an emotional rollercoaster. I need to lie down for a bit. Huge, huge congratulations to everyone involved in the show, the whole cast and crew. I hope they know that they've created something extraordinary. And I hope that cake they had in celebration of the 100th episode was delicious.
Ok, Angela did it with Ollie's ID and in his computer, then what? A SECURITY company doesn't have security cameras?
Okay, so apparently this episode aired a day early in Canada? Thank you, Canada. You rock.
That being said, my mind is filled with incomprehensible yelling, and my hands are shaking, so I'll keep this one brief.
Have we just watched Shaw's Winter Soldier origin story?
Sarah Shahi was on fire, hot damn. What an amazing performance.
I was sure that Shaw's escape wasn't real the moment I saw that random-ass boat. Way too convenient. Then the episode made me doubt a few times whether it was a simulation or reality, but in the end it turned out to be exactly what I'd suspected from the beginning.
I'd been waiting to see my baby Shaw again for so long, but I wasn't prepared for that. God, I can't deal with my emotions. It's too much.
I just really want them to kill Greer, all right? Slowly and painfully. Hell, I'd kill that asshole myself if I could.
If the simulation was in Shaw's head, why wasn't it from her point of view? And have those creeps watched Shoot bang every time they've run it?
This episode was unbelievably sad, and I'll probably still be crying about it next week, but Sarah Shahi tearing apart Amy Acker's shirt might just be the greatest thing I've ever witnessed with my own two eyes. Is there any chance we'll get some more of that when Root and Shaw are finally reunited in the real world?
Shaw has chosen to put a bullet in her head 6,741 times instead of killing Root. I'm bawling. Ultimate OTP goals right there.
What an exquisite episode. It struck the perfect balance between heartbreaking and awesome. Easily one of the best they've ever done and definitely in my top 3.
I'll be on the floor sobbing uncontrollably if anyone would like to join me.
That last scene. That's the show i fell in love with.
love,love,love better renew 4 to 5 seasons
Malkovich? Malkovich. Malkovich! Malkovich! Malkovich! Malkovich! Malkovich! Malkovich! Malkovich!
Malkovich? Malkovich. Malkovich! Malkovich! Malkovich! Malkovich! Malkovich! Malkovich! Malkovich!
I am so proudly going to tell my kids that I lived in the time when Community aired on Television.
Oh, this was fantastic. Such an intense episode that also did a great job of getting me excited for the next season.
"Haven't you learned anything this year... week... season?"
"It's the end of the season, er, semester."
Fourth wall? What fourth wall?
Shirley's tale of woe complete with seductive poses made me cry with laughter.
I'm really sad that we watched the Quagmires' daring escape and journey from Peru back to their home just for them to perish in a fire. I knew it was coming, but it still hurt.
That musical number at the end was unexpected, but I loved it. Somehow it just fit right in with the rest of the weirdness and absurdity.
Overall, this was an amazing season. All the actors were superb in their roles. Shoutout to Patrick Warburton in particular for being the perfect Lemony Snicket. His smooth voice and calm, somewhat deadpan delivery were exactly what I'd hoped for. NPH IS Count Olaf. He absolutely nailed the role. Malina Weissman and Louis Heyes were a bit stiff and awkward at times, but I still think they did an excellent job, especially considering that they're both just 13 years old and have very little acting experience. I'm sure they're just going to get better with age. And Sunny... Sunny is wonderful. I love her. I love all three of them, actually. They're my children now. I'm going to protect them and keep them safe and comfortable. They're going to eat ice cream for dinner. Their bedtime is never.
I love the editing of these series, I had never guessed Jin's story would take place in the past, and Sun's would take place in the future. Damnit Lost, you made me cry D:
I love kickass ladies more than anything, so I liked this episode. I do think the "#feminism" thing was kind of cringeworthy though. Like, girls teaming up and kicking ass was literally the focus of this episode, you don't have to tell us that it's feminist. We know. I'm a feminist myself and I'm 100% here for female empowerment, but the way they tried to bring attention to it every 5 seconds was grating. If you keep making a big deal out of powerful and capable women, it will never be seen as something normal and common (which, you know, it is). Instead, it will feel gimmick-y. Fortunately, this was probably a one-time thing and Caitlin and Iris will go back to being casual badasses in the next episode.
My favorite part was that Caitlin and Iris had so many scenes together. Seriously, I've been waiting for so long for their friendship to develop into something more than just work colleagues. This is the brOTP that we deserve.
Drunk Barry was so hilarious. My sweet boy, crying over Jack and Rose. But he's a scientist, he should know that just because the door was big enough for the two of them, it doesn't mean that it could hold both of them. There's this thing called buoyancy, you know. They totally could've taken turns though.
Also, did Felicity really say "The Incredible Hulk"? Are they allowed to name-drop Marvel heroes?
So fucking enjoyable. Also never mind all the blood, guts and violence, that dude swallowing a tea bag was the grossest thing in the episode.
Person of Interest has finally returned from war! And as sad as I am that this season is the last one, it's always better for a TV show to end after 5 seasons and be remembered as spectacular than to drag on for 10 seasons and become an unrecognisable, unwatchable caricature of itself. It seems that they want to go out with a bang, and they're bringing out the big guns this season - literally and figuratively. This episode was fantastic. I was on the edge of my seat the entire time.
Harold's moral dilemma and his interactions with The Machine made me emotional. Who knew I'd get so attached to an AI? And he called her "she"!
Once again, Root defied the dead lesbian trope and survived being shot at not once, not twice, but three freaking times! With LGBT characters dropping like flies on other shows (which is insane, by the way, and needs to stop immediately), I'm extremely happy that my favorite perky psycho is still alive. That could change, of course, with stakes being higher than ever this season, but for now, I'm just going to enjoy the fact that she's made it this far. The writers have always treated the characters with respect and I trust them to do Root justice, whether she survives this season or not.
"You can just call me Root, bitch."
I love her so much. So much.
Also, Root and John working together was a nice thing. She has built such amazing relationships with Harold and Shaw in the last few years, but she hasn't interacted with John all that much, which is a shame because they're so similar in many ways, and they make a good team. I really hope we'll see more of that.
I didn't pay that much attention to Fusco's storyline, but it's obvious he won't let go, and he'll probably find himself way over his head. Well, won't be the first time. We shall see where his investigation leads him.
Looking forward to next week. I have a strong feeling that this may just be the best season of all.
This is fantastic, I've been watching some other pilots, but this one really sticks out. I'm really glad it got picked up!
always glad to see hannibal get the shit beat outta him
221 B Baker Street baby!
please don't make new guy caitlin's new love interest.
when George Washington founded a little startup we've come to know as these United States of America, and he was tired of getting shit from his CEO, the King of England, did he just roll over and take it from behind?
WTF! I definitely did NOT see that coming. Killing one of your main characters in your pilot (albeit part two) is unheard of. I'm really shocked. Hawkman is the shortest-lived main character in the Arrowverse
Omg Lisa Kudroooooww! :D Love her! They couldn't have picked someone better to play Kimmy's Mom. I hope she's gonna return. And then the cliffhanger :O
