I think I must have watched a different film to most of the reviewers. It was nonsense from start to finish. Terrible acting, ridiculous decisions that make the teens in slasher movies seem like Einstein, and it's so dated it looks much older than it is - especially when you consider that Alien and Star Wars came out a year earlier.
I absolutely LOVED this movie. Halle Bailey was incredible as Ariel. She drew me in every time she was on screen. Melissa McCarthy also surprised me with her performance as Ursula. Overall, it's clear the people making this movie truly understood what makes these classic Disney stories feel magical, and they were able to bring that magic to life (imo) better than any other live action Disney remake has done. Oh, and see it in 3D if you can!
I'm getting through life in the same way Orion gets through challenges, same bored mood.
I'm so ready for a Naseer/Xander team, please let them make it so far into this season!
I need Carolyn to go all the way to the finals my God I love her! Lol
We can't end every episode with a character reveal. All the people who hated WandaVision for "being so slow". Well this is the show for you because it's basically a marvel movie without any of the recap. If you don't know who everyone is before you started episode one this series is just a mess. SO many people wanted to know if they could watch WandaVision without seeing Marvel movies first and it's so doable with so little information. "She's a witch, he's an android" that's it. TFatWS is so far the opposite. I've seen every MCU property and I'm still barely keeping it straight. I'm sure this will be the most fun for the people who do the entire MCU marathon and having just watched 15 movies going right into this it will feel great but watching it live is still not that good. It's just so hard to care about anything or anyone in this series.
This episode was certainly worth doing but it should have happened ages back. It was a well composed origin story for Negan, even if the leap from losing his wife to the caricature he was when he first appeared as a proverbial mustache-twirling super villain is still a little bit of a stretch.
The character needed this episode a good couple of seasons back to give him that much needed depth, so it's odd the show waited until the 11th hour to do it. Still, it's certainly a positive entry after the pointless filler episode that was last week. This may not have moved the story forward that much but it definitely felt a necessary addition to the show.
Another episode, another ton of mysteries, no answers, this show is going nowhere fast
It's enjoyable, but whoever did the soundtrack pulled the greatest scam. It's just laziness. Either I'm on the highway to the danger zone or you're taking my breath away. Those were my only two options.
IF there is going to be a third season they need to seriously consider finding new writers.
Now, just where did I put that recipe book?
So far it feels like I've just been watching the same episode five times :upside_down:
Monica, you look fantastic and finally relaxed, but the performance was horrible. I'm sure she's a wonderful person, but she lacks under every aspect of a performer.
The tops two were fair, but I'm rooting for Jessica since the beginning, such a good rediscovery!
you would think a zombie movie where literally every character just starts to die out throughout the plot would maybe TRY to make you like the characters. but i guess that's just to much to ask! silly me, i guess i did just have to hate almost every single one of them. also, it seems that every bit of common sense was thrown out just for the sake of absolutely unbelievable fight scenes.
ALSO was the bomb not a NUCLEAR bomb?? literally no matter if they all wouldve gotten out or not, THEY WOULDVE ALL DIED OF RADIATION POISONING! why is the dad giving his daughter money to go save the children in the camp, when the camp got fucking obliterated by radiation anyway?? and the ending with the dude stuck in the safe was also incredibly unsatisfying. how did the dad turn in 10 minutes but that dude almost went a day without turning. at least follow your own fucking rules set in the universe.
Dawn of the dead is one of my favorite zombie movies so I was really excited for this!
I'm so disappointed... A stupid story where nothing made sense! If that boss only needed that head why did the others needed to die? They could just take the money and the head! Everyone happy... And why did those 3 chicks stay in that room?! They could try to escape... It's not like they were chained or in a locked room!
It's maddening when I think of how bad the second season has been. They just make up shit as they go along it seems and nothing ever gets answered. Not to mention the bad scripting, bad directing, bad acting, bad dialogues, bad everything. I will definitely not be coming back for a third season.
And one last thing, can someone tell me what the sheriff's son and his girlfriend have contributed to the development of the story? They take up a lot of screen time but what exactly is the purpose of their roles? Because it really doesn't make any difference with or without them as far as the story goes.
I love the series, but I'm starting to get annoyed by the sheer amount of wildly random mysteries without any semblance of explanation or linkage.
There are also a bunch of inconsistencies throughout the series. Like Boyd who was on a discovery journey so it would make sense that he'd be minimally interested in knowing the old man's story, or what the f*ck he meant by the monsters are not the worst part of all this and then the music box.
It's starting to look like they're pulling a Lost here. Writing a bunch of random crazy sh*t, in the hope that someday they can find some good explanation for it, and we all know how that went.
Sure we get some clues, like the fact that Kristi's fiancee confirmed that the time actually matched her experience... but they're so minimal compared to everything piling up every episode that makes things just annoying.
The Matrix meets Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind…meets Ratatouille?
Xander had the best game. Sending Ricard home was the best decision, I’ve been waiting for it from the very start - I simply hate the guy! (yes, a word used on purpose)
Shame he didn’t win.
stepping down for peanut butter?! especially if you don't really know where you stand? stupid f*cking move from Kim if you ask me. it was obvious from last episode's preview that she'd be going home, but I didn't want to believe it until the last moment. I was rooting for her even though she had a very non-event edit from the beginning... now it's pretty obvious who's winning.
plus, the tribal council whispering should be banned. before voting and ESPECIALLY after voting. what the hell...
I was thinking that season one and two were going to be separate stories but OMG the ending of this episode blew my mind and I was wondering if they were going to tie in the two seasons by reference or something small, BUT THAT’S NOT SOMETHING SMALL!
Megami went from annoying to icon! She really had a redemption in one episode.
Happy for the winner, she deserved it, from the first lip sync, but I wuld have been happy with the other winner too.
Maya named the queen of flips as she is the best lip sync-er ever existed, I never liked her, and she doesn't put anything of her in the song.
"And the Emmy for Best Actor in a Limited Series goes to..."
This is basically a show for children now. Nothing that happens on screen is believable in any way. Human motivation, action, speech...all disingenuous and fake. In nearly every scene I'm astounded by plot holes and impossible time/space jumps. It has no redeeming qualities and it is 100% the worst show on television.
I lost count of how many times groups of people with guns happened upon other groups of people with guns in this episode. The episode did feature the return of Daniel, which is a plus, except that a major plot point last season was that he was suffering from dementia, and now in this episode, he's just back as the leader of a group of parents, fresh as a daisy? The writers seemingly tried to explain away his miraculous recover from dementia by having him drink yerba mate for "focus." Seriously?? Call every neurologist in the the country! Fear the Walking Dead has come up with a simple cure for Alzheimer's! :facepalm: The big reveal about PADRE was super lame and underwhelming. Otherwise, the writing in this episode is dreadful and often nonsensical, and the acting is uninspired. At one point, Crane is really worried when his father leaves some binoculars behind. I mean, he's way more worried than anyone on planet earth should ever be about binoculars. So he runs off to find his father and give him the binoculars. His sister asks why he has to take the binoculars to his father, and he says, "Because how will he see what's coming without them?" Dreadful.
It's almost as if everyone involved knows this shit sucks, and they're just trying to get to the finish line at this point.
In the NBA there is something called a +/- radius, it shows how many points are scored verses given up when a player is in the game. If this applied to acting and Morgan had this, who by the way was my favorite character period around season 7 of TWD, then he'd easily be the worst rating imaginable. This character who was formally so amazing just bombs every scene he's in now with his bullshit passivness. He once pulled someone's guts out of him with his BARE HANDS, now he doesn't even have any. This episode was at least twice to three times as good as the opener, which doesn't say much, but does say this show is better the less it focuses on Morgan, which absolutely breaks my heart but couldn't be more obvious.
I think we were all ready to see Maya going, lasting 10 episodes out of pity. But Plasma didn't shine for real and as it's been said a lipsync for your life should count. At the same time they were the same splits (with slightly more passion), anyway, we will never get rid of her...
This challenge is always so cringy and unfunny.
This was so uncomfortable. It took a bit of a toll on me, watching these characters go against every basic instinct and gut feeling. So, eventually, I just gave up. My first thought when the credits rolled was: "well, that's what you get, you absolute idiots."
There's no amount of politeness in the world that could make me override my survival instincts, so this is one of the few horror movies where I can confidently say: that shit would NOT happen to me. No child has ever died from feeling a little sad, so the bunny can suck it.
Production must’ve been so sad when Trey was giving number 3… I know I was
