Repairing a power armor component only costs 5 caps? I feel so ripped off right now.
The score when Lucy saw the NCR flag… chills! I have nothing against Ramin Djawadi, he really know how to make a great score, but the show is very much missing out without the ambient music made by the dudes who composed the games.
The show is great so far, my tiniest complaint is that there is no epic title sequence.
Our Lucy is just starting to figure things out. By the way, that iron man fell in love with Maximus :joy: This episode flowed like water.
No new ideas, just many generic "that's how you do sci-fi action" elements. Plus several emotional but absolutely not inspiring speeches.
If this wouldn't be "the end" for many (previously) beloved characters in a formerly beloved brand, it would be a pretty meaningless affair.
It's all about reunion, nothing else.
Embedded in a predictable, simple-minded and obscure framework they call 'story'.
I don't exaggerate when I consider Michael emotionally instable. It's no surprise that she acted irrational this time, considering the circumstances, so I absolutely don't get why her superiors would give her the opportunity to cause severe damages. Again.
Not to mention that pinning her mom made no sense anyway. They couldn't keep her permanently anyway and she shared the information she was willed to share. So what exactly could the Starfleet gain by ignoring her request to let her leave? Correct, absolutely nothing.
This season's plot is just bad. Really bad.
I mean God Damn Drummer is BADASS
but now we have 2 episodes left.. I feel like there's soooooo many things we didn't explore.. 2 episodes won't cut it
Generic build up in the first half, lacklustre escalation afterwards.
And the villains are just clowns, you couldn't possibly take them serious. Resulting in a movie that you can't take serious.
The only positive aspect is the ship. But that's enough.
A lot of these comments are talking about Vanya changing pronouns and name as if she died, like y’all do realize Viktor is the exact same character from the previous seasons? Nothing major has really changed. I liked how casual they treated his coming out too, it doesn’t always have to be this huge thing. Very refreshing.
Really going in the right direction, with more classic Star Trek plots, space anomalies, unknown species, and some indications of recovering TOS canon. Also: no boring Klingons and we are now officially "In Search Of Spock" ;-)
The real question is why the hell did the guy charge money for snacks at the white house?
I was close to stop watching the show after the first three episodes. Everyone seemed to be a self-absorbed rich asshole, the show itself seemed to be going nowhere. But I'm so glad I didn't stop watching. Episode five was the first one where I thought "Oh, maybe it isn't so bad after all." It only improved afterwards. With all the schemes, backstabbing, and generally horrible people it's basically Game of Thrones set in 2018 New York. Succession is probably the best show on TV at the moment. I can't wait for season two.
It was at the point after Eloise enters the first dream sequence, and Sandie descends the mirror lined stairs and dances that I thought "This is so good, I don't even care what happens next!"
Turns out, I did care. It's such a shame to see a movie that could be so brilliant suffer from such a poor and incoherent narrative.
Yikes. Horrible casting choices. Only the queen's older version feels like the same character. They either should have jumped earlier in the season or waited until season two. After kind of enjoying last week's episode I'm back to my overall impression of this being a poorly written and executed show.
the season finale was a bit less cringy and a bit darker than usual...anyways I'm still looking forward to the prequel spinoff Greg the Egg, the origin story of a little Machiavellian fuck
Doctor Who doesn't get any better than this episode. Forget the Daleks and anything else that you might consider 'scary', this is the real stuff. And such a clever writing. Incredible. Episodes as this, are what defines Doctor Who's cult status.
Good finale.
Despite some stellar episodes, overall I find this season a step-down though. First season is like an accumulation of many small encounters/interactions that makes up a truly unique, refreshing ethos of TV. I liked that they are more ambitious and don't want to repeat themselves with this second season, but in having several big-picture character arcs, I feel the episode-to-episode writing isn't strong enough for that kind of expansion, with their storytelling a bit lumpy, and strained sometimes where the previous one feels effortless. Still enjoyed it a lot, and looking forwards how they progress with a full-blown villain in the next one.
Everybody should be watching, talking about and reflecting on the Morning Show
The best episode since Mike left. Laughed so much too :thumbsup:
And as always with this show: Julia Garner is the absolute standout as Ruth. She is goddamn fantastic.
"Shut up and deal!" The four most (unlikely) romantic words in classical film. Nominated for 10 Oscars, winner of 5, this is a motion picture classic, that I was surprised to find, I'd never seen before. A wonderful combination of comedy and bleak humanity, all in a wonderful romance. Jack Lemmon is a master of comedic timing and delivery, but when the plot demands it, he can turn on a dime to dramatic perfection. Shirley MacLean, ever mercurial, convincingly draws us into her character and predicament. Great writing, unexpectedly provocative subject matter, well-developed project. Billy Wilder is a genius. I give this film a 9.5 (splendid) out of 10.
Aside from Park Eun Bin's acting, I also love the cast's portrayal and their dynamics with Atty Woo. Woo's best friend is the funniest here hahaha. There are also heartwarming moments you don't wanna miss. Very great delivery for a pilot ep.
Am I the only one who loved this film ?? I want to thank the cinema gods for this film. It was awesome.
Ohhhhhhh the weather outside is frightful..but the rapey stabbyness is delightful...since we got no place to gooooo...watch this show watch this show watch this shoooowwwwww
I simply don't like stories that are primarily exciting because everyone seems to go crazy. This episode was terrible.
serena is a case study in cognitive dissonance oh my god
