That whole last scene with The Chain ? chef kiss. I love this show's soundtrack.
When I started this show the last thing I expected was to ship Blackbeard and Stede but here we are.
I absolutely love Blackbeard (Ed) and Stede together. What a pair. This must be the best flipping pirate show on the planet :joy::joy::joy:
The absolute glow-up on The Swede
How dare Marcia Gay Harden spoil Starborn for me? I was so looking forward to watch Madonna on that movie.
good finale to the first season!
i have grown to like liz and isobel more. they have a lot of good qualities in them that i liked. max is an okay character but i personally just don't care for him that much. kyle turned out to be a better character than i thought. hope that in s 2 there will be more character development for kyle, maria and alex. nervously waiting for the love triangle to probably start rolling even more.
my character list for season 1:
amazing - michael
great - alex, kyle, liz
good - isobel, maria, jenna
meh - max, noah, rosa
trash - jesse manes
This is where I finally bow out. I don't mind suspending disbelief but they've become really lazy and are taking liberties now.
Oliver is so annoying... the whole arc is boring.
Marissa is super annoying and she has a pattern, she has a boyfriend and starts to flirt with someone else and then drives the boyfriend away and plays the victim... worst character ever
Angel: "What's going on? -- Were you in Virginia?"
Wesley: "That's beside the point."
Blink and you'll miss it.
I really liked this episode. In which Angel does not have to sing. In which Wesley gets to play bodyguard to the Sonicare Tooth Fairy's hot redheaded daughter. In which Wesley has sex with said daughter. Both Buffy and Angel seem to be getting a lot hornier right now, and it's not a bad thing, since it's actually pretty hot... as long as it's not Buffy and Reilly :sleeping:. Boreanaz and Julie Benz have great onscreen chemistry, though, and so did Alexis and guest star Brigid Brannagh. Oh, snap, she's in four episodes. Nice.
7.5 imposters out of 10
I don't know why but a like it. Had some funny moments.
Blair's and Chuck's manipulation and abuse of their money is almost excusable, which they are definitely NOT , since they're at least aware of their excesses and privilege. Meanwhile, Serena van der Woodsen wants to be oppressed SO BAD! Dan is too good for her. I cannot believe Serena values what she acknowledges to be a high school relationship over, not only her mom's romantic life, but their home and family life! Although I do not understand why Lily's only options are either Dan or Bart (like can't you just stay blissfully single and sort your feelings out), I hate how Serena expects her mom, and consequently her whole family, and Dan to suffer and/or make sacrifices for her security only to deny "special treatment". G o s h !
Xander: Don't even try to deny it......
Xander, baby, she does not owe you any explanations!
Another hilarious Spike scene, with Spike changing his story to Dawn midway through because Buffy entered the room:
Buffy: “Let’s hear the story that Spike is telling my little sister.”
Spike: “Right, yeah. So, uh, I knew the girl was in the coal bin. So, I rip it open, very violent, haul her out of there and then give her to a good family, in a nice home (Buffy rolls her eyes), where they’re never mean to her and didn’t lock her in the coal bin.”
Nice acting as Spike was by turns empathetic, sympathetic, yet also disagreeably creepy (offering to kill Dru for Buffy if she says she feels something; tying her up; arguing that women marry serial killers in prison.) But as sick and screwed up as Spike is, who wouldn't feel bad at the look on his face when she uninvited him out of her house?
I love Drusilla. 10 pounds of nuts stuffed into a 2 pound bag.
Out... for... a... walk... ....bitch!
This is a very clear and in no way subtle WWII/Holocaust allegory (the uniforms, "extermination" and "vermin", the shoes that Doyle finds in his flashback, bunker under the floorboards, etc.). But still very effective, with a heartbreaking ending.
Spike ruined all of their lives in one episode! Can’t wait to catch up with him being a series regular. Love is a funny thing....
One of the only Scream-clones to come out of the 90s that was pretty good itself. Not Scream good, but there is a cool killer, likeable cast and a solid revenge plot. I may be biased though, 'cause I was just the right age when it came out.
"That's, like, a monumental abuse of power." Yes it is! She really thought Kathryn would condone her behavior?!
Paul looks so much like Sam Claflin, and Toni like David Anders . Such a beautiful film about friendship and our relationship to material things.
The Shiny Shrimps is like inside a man's boxers: there are no real surprises but what is there is enjoyable.
A gay copy of France's successful Sink or Swim last year, The Shiny Shrimps is the story of a water polo team competing for the Gay Games. Based on a real water polo team, the good news is this film far outshines its trailer which angered me for feeding the stereotypes of the flamboyant gay man. Fortunately, the actual film is more balanced and while there are certainly gay stereotypes (it is a mass market comedy, after all), at least there's more than one type.
The Shiny Shrimps hits all the right notes even if it's the same old song and dance. You'll laugh out loud, identify with the characters and leave the cinema feeling good. What more can you ask for from a mainstream comedy?
"The killer's next victim is a six-year-old girl," actully that's only revealed 10 min within the episode.. nice spoiler!!
The show writers are clearly very committed. It seems like they're trying to tick the box for every stereotype that's out there. Of course the mentally unstable woman is still trying to convince her cheating ex to come back to her, of course everyone with a foreign look or accent is a violent murderer who doesn't even blink when gutting children or dogs. But thank God there are still the righteous straight white knights who will get the world back in order. It's 2016, ffs.
This show could just as well be named "More men who hate women - featuring the least likeable cast ever". Besides... I have known since episode 2 or possibly 3 who the murderer was. Kept hoping for a twist but... nope. So I believe I will happily skip watching any more seasons. Ps. Using blackouts as a plot device seems rather lazy, and is annoying as hell.
Based on a true story, this is definitely a low key non-action movie. It moves along slowly, but doesn't get bogged down. There's nothing outstanding, but nothing disappointing about it either. A good time waster with a nice story. 8/10
This is so not the same without Nathan.
I was shocked by the ending scene, but cmon why Poland and Russia looks like villages or shitholes with soviet architecture where people drinking vodka for breakfast?
why would Kenny have a picture of himself as his phone background lol. on the other note, shout out to stylists team!
