Rupert Grint literally played a punk rocker in that movie I just watched how is that typecast lol

brave orbit

In general

modern lichen

The main 3 actors have done a wide range of roles that are not even close to their potter roles

And the writer is doing the next avengers movie too 🤣

The MCU is really taking a nosedive, it's sad to see

#

I thought they were going to start prioritizing quality over quantity but I guess not

marvel sucks and the trailer to this movie already looked bad

#

Jonathan Majors is too good for the MCU SanjiSmoke

#

Gorr wasn't very good

mild seal
#

love and thunder wasn't good in general

dim hedge
#

Gorr was amazing in the comics and they did him dirty by barely giving him any screentime

glacial jetty
#

i think he was good in his 12 frames of screentime

mild seal
#

I liked Wakanda Forever

#

Namor was great too

rich meadow
#

I haven't watched any MCU since endgame

@limber urchin LoTR || Deus ex machina is when you conveniently bring in something that did not exist to solve an insolvable problem. Here the issue is they already had the something (eagle's flight) but chose not to use it ||

reviews say it's kinda bad, but it's still making 280M in the first weekend

#

sad

unkempt agate
#

you know the mass media loves marvel

sage remnant
#

I mean, those will be one of the few movies a lot of your friends/cousins would watch so only option for a group theatre watch sort of thing

dim hedge
#

I refuse to believe this movies gonna be worse than love and thunder, looks mod though

scenic frost
#

It doesn't need to be spectacular for like the general audience to enjoy

sage remnant
#

Marvel movies are just an excuse for a group of friends or group of cousins to get together and enjoy the fun for me nowadays

#

tbh

scenic frost
#

Give a few decent VFX, some snarky lines and a few minutes of half decent action and like 90% of the people will be kinda satisfied

#

You need to make an absolute trainwreck of a movie to actually suffer viewership loss after getting established to this point

dim hedge
#

At least there’s guardians 3 this year LETSBUGGINGGO LETSBUGGINGGO LETSBUGGINGGO LETSBUGGINGGO

sage remnant
#

but they still made decent money ig

scenic frost
#

Idk was L&T that bad?

#

It was pretty crap by Marvel standards

#

But like

sage remnant
#

I mean, the emotional delivery at times was on point, but everything surrounding that were super bad

scenic frost
#

For generic entertainment purposes it really wasn't all that bad

spice folio
unkempt agate
#

good

spice folio
#

still believe the last good marvel movie will be Vol. 3

dim hedge
#

I don’t care, but i do like kang

#

He doesn’t deserve a bad movie Crydo Crydo Crydo

spice folio
#

there's not a single phase 4 movie I fully liked

sage remnant
#

I still enjoyed the first half of Love and Thunder. Wasn't something which made me go like "I need my money back"

dim hedge
#

Other than guardians 3 I don’t care about anything else mcu related coming, perhaps I’m healing

spice folio
#

Wakana forever was kinda good tho, the rest are big "meh" movies

sage remnant
#

|| Omnicity or w/e it was called was the point where it started sucking really bad for me || thor l&T

spice folio
#

except Love and thunder

#

Which was shit

dim hedge
scenic frost
#

Lol it had decent VFX, some cheesy comedy, a bit of emotional delivery and crowd hyping things Thor L&T || ( lady Thor, the whole council of Olympus or whatever, Christian bale in the cast ) || i think that would be enough for like 90% of the viewers

dim hedge
#

Sad more people didn’t watch werewolf by night UsoppGrief UsoppGrief UsoppGrief UsoppGrief

spice folio
#

I think I'm more excited about James Gunn's DC slate than anything from Marvel at this point

sage remnant
#

atleast the first half

spice folio
#

but man

#

I love Kang

dim hedge
#

I feel like I’m in the minority who really liked she hulk, probably my second favourite mcu disney plus show

spice folio
#

at least he's good supposedly

sage remnant
#

I haven't watched Eternals cuz my MCU loving friends who even liked Thor L&T said Eternals sucked

dim hedge
#

But yeah phase 4 has had some really bad projects

dim hedge
#

Moonknight ZuneshaDespair

scenic frost
#

I think other than the odd bad movie here and there the major problem with the MCU is it's getting waaay to big

dim hedge
#

After reading the mk comics, holy shit they butchered the character

scenic frost
#

It's like if you miss a couple of months of following you have a backlog of 30 episodes and 5 movies before you're caught up

spice folio
scenic frost
#

(obviously exaggerating a bit but you get the point)

sage remnant
#

yeah. I'd rather like all the money that's going to these big movies go to adapting good SFF series

spice folio
#

it's my longest and least coherent review I've ever made

#

I hate that movie

scenic frost
#

It's almost like a job keeping up with the MCU and a lot of people simply don't have the time for it

dim hedge
#

Loki season 2 and guardians 3 is probable all I’m hyped for from mcu

#

Fantastic 4 i don’t have any faith tbh

sage remnant
scenic frost
#

Is moon knight MCU or standalone?

sage remnant
#

MCU

dim hedge
#

Mcu

#

Unfortunately

sage remnant
#

should have been standalone

scenic frost
#

That was pretty good tbh

spice folio
dim hedge
sage remnant
#

Yeah I liked it too except the finale Aka

scenic frost
#

Yeah keep the good series away from the MidCU UsoppGrief UsoppGrief

scenic frost
#

Don't waste Oscar Isaac on it Crydo Crydo

spice folio
#

I stopped watching the shows after Moon knight...

sage remnant
dim hedge
#

Why did they have to butcher moonknight ZuneshaDespair ZuneshaDespair ZuneshaDespair

spice folio
#

what a waste man

sage remnant
#

on the other hand Aka.
Dune 2 this year

scenic frost
#

Indeed

#

Dune 1 was so hype

sage remnant
#

i can't understand. did you like it or nah?

dim hedge
#

Gunns dc is incredibly hype

sage remnant
#

it seems to have been controversial

scenic frost
#

Oh i definitely like it, i definitely watched the entire movie and it was spectacular every minute of it

dim hedge
#

Especially since gunn actually cares for comics and the characters

scenic frost
sage remnant
scenic frost
spice folio
scenic frost
#

I would even put it above The Batman

sage remnant
spice folio
#

one thing that has sucked for every single mcu show...are the villains

dim hedge
#

Moonknight comics/show || why did they take him and make him an unfunny annoying british guy ||

spice folio
#

well

#

for every single phase 4 project besides wakanda forever

brave orbit
#

You know what doesnt suck

#

Years and years

sage remnant

#

Namor is the only good villain in like 15 projects

#

that's CRAZY

brave orbit
#

Amirite jesus

sage remnant
scenic frost
#

Especially after the likes of Thanos, Loki, Ultron UsoppGrief UsoppGrief

spice folio
#

Goro is coping

scenic frost
#

I really like Loki as an early MCU villain

spice folio
#

MCU is kinda dead for me already

#

the route is going is not for me

scenic frost
#

I watch something if my friends are all 5alkibt about it but that's it tbh

dim hedge
#

Heard kang was good in antman, shame he’s only gonne be in mid movies ZuneshaDespair

spice folio
#

hope people have fun with it tho, it's whatever

#

it's crazy but those movies are what got me into actual movies

scenic frost
#

Uhh

#

Talking

#

Wtf

spice folio
dim hedge
#

I still appreciate the mcu for getting me into comics properly

#

Started getting into em a lot more last year and it’s been great

scenic frost
dim hedge
#

Especially with moonknight stuff LETSBUGGINGGO LETSBUGGINGGO LETSBUGGINGGO

scenic frost
#

Forget the right word it can't even throw something random GarPepe

#

I never got much into western comics cz they are stupid hard to read on a phone UsoppGrief UsoppGrief

sage remnant
#

true

scenic frost
#

Idk if it's with the font size or style or whatever but it's a lot harder to read than manga on phone

scenic frost
#

Which is where I read 90% of my shit

sage remnant
#

best thing to read in phone are books ngl

#

then manga

scenic frost
#

Western comics you either need to read on a computer or physical

#

Which just isn't for me

dim hedge
#

Pretty handy

scenic frost
#

If i bother to sit down properly and boot my computer i am playing games or watching anime/movies not read stuff

scenic frost
spice folio
#

so it's sad to see what it has become

dim hedge

At least theres dc to look forward to

Breathless is a good one as well

HOW ARE THEY CONTINUING THIS SHIT

uncut yarrow
#

@wooden swift what are your thoughts on Schindler's?

wooden swift
#

Uhh

#

Schindlers List ||it was a bit long (obviously) but I appreciated the cinematographic choices of the film the most I'd say. Acting was good. Not terribly huge of a fan of the portrayal of certain SS officers but I think that's really my only complaint, albeit a big one. I appreciate that the film is very uncomfortable because films about this should be. 8.4/10||

feral kettle
#

I should watch

uncut yarrow
#

Yes

wooden swift
#

Second best scene

#

Schindlers ||best scene was when, after refusing drink the entire film, Stern says "I'll have that drink now" because he's convinced he's going to Auschwitz||

uncut yarrow
#

Ah yeah Crydo

cunning spruce
#

I also recommend The Pianist.

Going into The Grace of Kings (Dandelion Dynasty) by Ken Liu

#

@scenic frost do you know this series?

fluid merlin
#

Finally watched triangle of sadness, its good

feral kettle
scenic frost
sage remnant
#

he's a good writer

#

one of his stories was adapted into an ep of Love Death + robots

scenic frost
#

Have been meaning to pick it up cz one of the MCs is a bandit so it would seem right up my alley but I got higher priority stuff to read

sage remnant
#

weren't you not a fan of || futuristic sort of scifi setting ?|| dandelion dynasty

scenic frost
#

But enough people have recommended it that i might check it out at some point if i feel like reading absolutely nothing else

#

Even my priority stuff doesn't get read for monthsGarPepe GarPepe

sage remnant
#

dandelion dynasty || back when I was planning to check it out, it looked like the series needed a lot of commitment ||

scenic frost
#

So like low priority basically means I am aware of it and don't think it's dogshit GarPepe

sage remnant
#

Like Dandelion dynasty goodreads description || Wily, charming Kuni Garu, a bandit, and stern, fearless Mata Zyndu, the son of a deposed duke, seem like polar opposites. Yet, in the uprising against the emperor, the two quickly become the best of friends after a series of adventures fighting against vast conscripted armies, silk-draped airships, and shapeshifting gods. ||

|| ranges from high fantasy to high scifi in just one paragraph BuggyMonkaS ||

scenic frost
sage remnant
#

yea mostly

scenic frost
#

Like Stormlight book 4 || also has one ||

sage remnant
#

I haven't read RoW

#

: (

scenic frost
#

That's why I tagged it

sage remnant
#

Now I am tempted to open it and I can't. GarPepe

#

anyways yeah || Scifi and high fantasy hardly blend in for me so one of the reason I haven't yet started it|| dandelion dynasty

brave orbit
#

Yea dont

brave orbit
#

A friend of mine is reading mistborn 1

scenic frost
#

I checked a couple of reviews none of them are calling it sci fi

sage remnant
#

Scifi with fantastical beings are okay mostly. Everything starts to fall apart once magic is introduced alongside scifi elements |

scenic frost
#

Most are calling it historical/fantasy

sage remnant
scenic frost
#

So might actually not be sci fi

sage remnant
#

so it is closer to smth like Iron Widow

#

interesting

#

I remember checking tags and description way back and giving up

scenic frost
#

Lmao this dude on Goodreads doesn't understand the point of historical fiction KataOmegaLUL

#

He's given it a 1 star cz it's a rip off GarPepe

sage remnant
#

Reminds be of a berserk vol 1 Amazon review who gave it 1 star cuz it wasn't for kids and they bought it for their kids

#

like bruh why do you think there's that huge ass Parental Advisory tag on the cover

scenic frost
#

The review is hilarious

#

They even get the historical inspirations wrong

sage remnant
#

kek

brave orbit
#

Reminds me of when a story is about racism and they say "wow this isnt subtle"

sage remnant
scenic frost
#

Man Goodreads reviewers are dumb

brave orbit
#

Did you read tress goro

scenic frost
#

Man has rated it 1 star saying I wanted high fantasy but this historical fantasy and only has some asian mythology references

#

Like bruh

sage remnant

scenic frost

And would never have gotten into animanga

sage remnant

scenic frost

Holy crap i watched like 500 episodes of dub ZoroGrief ZoroGrief

#

Like how

sage remnant
scenic frost
#

Back then i didn't know how much filler there was and thought most of the anime was canon ZoroGrief

#

Actually

#

I didn't know about the concept of fillers iirc

sage remnant
#

if it was your first anime, then probably

scenic frost
#

I was watching literally every episode

sage remnant
#

even I dropped it once as a 6 year old man. I commend you

scenic frost
#

And dub

#

I was watching in the fkn dub

sage remnant
#

Also @brave orbit isn't there a dr who comic adaptation or smth?

#

or are they seperate stories

and yes, it looks bad

#

ok all you brandon sanderson fans out there I need your help

#

what series of his should I start first

rich meadow
#

mistborn probably

scenic frost
#

Dandelion Dynasty || seriously though, i am a sucker for the clich'd edgelord outside puppy inside kinda assassin/thieves ||

scenic frost
mild seal
#

ok thats 2 for mistborn

scenic frost
#

You can ask wilt if you want too, he's currently reading it after having read a few Stormlight books

#

And ping spice as well he has the big ass chart that suggests reading order if you wanna go that far

#

(also don't ping fed, his takes are mid)

mild seal
#

lmfao

#

I already knew about fed, he's a dr. who fanboy

#

@copper phoenix gimme your list of reading order or something

scenic frost
#

The cosmere graphic

copper phoenix
#

I'll look for it hold on

#

but depending on how experienced you are with big ass epic fantasy books you should start with stormlight

#

if you're a noob then mistborn is a good intro

scenic frost
#

Nah even then I still recommend mistborn simply because it's an earlier work

#

Going from a more polished to a less polished series can be a bit of a let down

copper phoenix
#

nah gotta start with the goat

#

still depends on how much time they have to read too

#

not everyone can read 10 books per day like you

mild seal
#

I like to take my time with books

uncut yarrow
mild seal
#

read a couple chapters a night

scenic frost

Also mistborn is shorter so i always give brownie points for that lol but yeah if they are experienced enough at reading gigabooks then by all means go for Stormlight

uncut yarrow
#

Cuz yeah there's 2 MC

#

I'm used to reading long books

copper phoenix
#

then stormlight it is LETSBUGGINGGO

uncut yarrow
#

Read mistborn first

scenic frost
copper phoenix
uncut yarrow
#

I made the mistake to read stormlight first

copper phoenix
#

but it's a ton of books

uncut yarrow
#

Phase 1 2 3

scenic frost
modern lichen
#

Go for Stormlight, if you want the best Sanderson experience but if you want the Cosmere experience and a shorter series in terms of length of pages, go for Mistborn

scenic frost
#

Not your typical 500-700 pages

trim crown
#

Puss in boots 2 ||just finished watching||

#

Pib2 ||best part? Shrek tease||

scenic frost
#

What harsh says

uncut yarrow
#

Yeah what harsh said ig but isn't RoW heavy cosmere

mild seal
scenic frost
#

If you think you're committed enough to read all of it start with mistborn

mild seal
#

hmm

scenic frost
#

If you're unsure go with Stormlight cz if you're only reading one Sanderson series it had better be Stormlight

mild seal
#

I'll probably read them all tbh

uncut yarrow
#

You told me you'd recommend mistborn before all LUL

scenic frost
#

Which i also told you

copper phoenix
#

if you can really commit to the full experience then go for it

#

but it's not for everyone

uncut yarrow
#

True

scenic frost
mild seal
#

I've read shitty books and finished them just because I wanna see how they end

#

same with manga

uncut yarrow
scenic frost
#

It's just a few extra ooohs if you get the references

copper phoenix
#

should be a breeze for op readers

uncut yarrow
#

I'm an ippo reader

#

So RobinSmug

mild seal
#

a friend of mine forced me to read the twilight series in the late 2000s/early 2010s...

uncut yarrow
#

Oof

scenic frost
#

Those ooohs are in a mass flurry of HOLYSHITWHATTHEFUCKHAPPENEDs though so not really that big a deal GarPepe GarPepe

uncut yarrow
#

What ? LUL

#

Oh I see what you mean

#

It's like the subtle stuff

#

That no one cares about on the surface but crazy if you dig in

scenic frost
#

It's cool to spot them but isn't necessary to fully enjoy the story

uncut yarrow
#

I think that'll change though

scenic frost
#

maaaaybe around Stormlight 8-9 they will have intertwined enough that you will need context from other series to fully enjoy them but even that is unlikely

#

Cz sando is adamant that he wants to keep each series it's own experience

uncut yarrow
#

I think at this point Sanderson expects people to be up to date on stuff, especially since he finished mistborn era 2

#

Yeah we'll see

scenic frost
uncut yarrow
#

I mean I say that but idk the end of RoW

scenic frost
#

Nah end of row is nothing like that

#

Just a few cool references

#

I would even go so far as to say glorified Easter eggs

mild seal
#

I was gonna read the wheel of time series when the show came out but everyone had the same idea as me so it wasn't available at my library lol

uncut yarrow
#

Okay I said that because someone told me that Brandon said in the RoW presentation he expects people to be up to date on cosmere, to verify

scenic frost
uncut yarrow
scenic frost
#

They are pret-ty slow tbh

#

Not really slow per se

mild seal
#

As slow as lord of the rings?

scenic frost
#

But like idk how to describe it

uncut yarrow
mild seal
#

Cause I couldn't finish fellowship

uncut yarrow
#

I couldn't read Wheel of Time, too character heavy and slow for me, but I'll get back to it one day

scenic frost
#

Not really all that comparable because lotr writing style is significantly different

uncut yarrow
#

There's also the Amazon series

scenic frost
#

Like i wouldn't even know how to compare the two honestly

uncut yarrow
#

Which Brandon worked on

#

Or like, was consultation for it

scenic frost
#

I fail at comparing LoTR to any other series because idk the prose feels very different from most other books i have read

uncut yarrow
#

Still haven't read lotr LUL

scenic frost
#

Except like some older series like Belgariad or some of the LoTR knock offs

uncut yarrow
#

Nor watched the movies

mild seal
uncut yarrow
#

Yeah

copper phoenix
#

what did you think about s1

modern lichen
#

Critical Role the best modern fantasy anyway haha

#

Besides Sanderson

scenic frost
#

harsh i was thinking of getting into it

uncut yarrow
#

I've seen a critical role book the other day, thought of you

copper phoenix
#

I'll watch the show at some point

modern lichen
#

Just watch Legend of Vox Machina, akagami

mild seal
modern lichen
#

For now

copper phoenix
#

isn't there another one coming from amazon

modern lichen
#

Season 2 has ended

mild seal
#

mighty nein!

scenic frost
#

Oh

uncut yarrow
scenic frost
#

Is that also high fantasy?

modern lichen
#

Yeah, their second main dnd campaign is being adapted as well

copper phoenix
scenic frost
#

How did the LoTR show do in general?

#

I found it pretty good overall

modern lichen
#

Yeah, it's pretty fuckin raunchy tho, it's literally voice actors playing DND, raising 11 million dollars, making a show with 2 seasons based on their first Livestream campaign and now they've sketched a multimillion dollar deal with Amazon

#

It was good

#

Slow start but good finish

mild seal
#

hehehe raunchy slow start but good finish

modern lichen
#

Critical Role started a Kickstarter for 750k to make an animated special covering some events of their first campaign (they were in the second campaign then when they announced it) that blew up and ended up raising 11 million dollars (biggest Kickstarter for a show or piece of visual media ever) and being made into an animated series which garnered acclaim, got a second season which covered half of that campaign's biggest arc now

mild seal
modern lichen
#

The second season just ended too

mild seal
#

I got into CR during their 3rd campaign because I saw the premiere of the first episode had over 100k viewers and I was curious what it was about

modern lichen
#

So you can binge it pretty fast

mild seal
#

I think at one point it had 200k

modern lichen
#

Yeah, some of the biggest Twitch streams on the platform are from Critical Role

#

You should've seen the finale of campaign 2

#

Man I can't believe that they're now getting multiple shows potentially covering all campaigns hopefully

mild seal
#

so I just checked and my local library doesn't have any brandon sanderson books

#

yaaaaaaaay

scenic frost
#

None?

#

Dang

mild seal
#

according to their website

scenic frost
#

Like are they all issued to someone or they just don't have it in their catalogue?

mild seal
#

they just don't have it

scenic frost
#

Better be the first case or that's one shameful library

#

The fuck

#

That's wierd

mild seal
#

I live in a somewhat... conservative area of california

scenic frost
#

I have found at least Mistborn in even small time Indian libraries it's wierd to not have it if they have a fantasy section

#

Idk even then sando's stuff isn't raunchy or shit that could cause conservatives to have problems with them

brave orbit
#

As in

#

It's still not necessary, but it is a much bigger part

mild seal
#

I'll check the used book store around here

#

I really don't wanna order off amazon

scenic frost
#

I felt that was one of his biggest strengths tbh

#

Like being able to keep things separate and connected at the same time sorta

#

But ig it's just getting too big now

brave orbit
#

He always wanted to go with this at some point

#

he just didn't go all in inrder to make new readers not feel left out too much

I saw that frank wrote the 5 main books in succession but then his son wrote like 10-15 other prequels and sequels, are those worth reading?

aside from the two parter that i just shat on lol

Steven Moffat = good

5 6 or around that

nah

i got a different role to suit my pfp

i mean its not moffat's best work

but it's still pretty good

brave orbit

Its ok at best

#

The mechanics make no sense

i dont think frank herbert is the best writer btw he's a bit mechanical in his writing imo

undone junco
brave orbit
#

The ||angel mechanics introduced|| doctor who s5

undone junco
#

doctor who s5 || i thought the fact that Amy could survive the angels like that was wack but still, nothing too egregious||

brave orbit
#

Or the fact they now move in slomo

undone junco
#

dr who s5|| that was because they weren't fully complete, that was mentioned lol||

brave orbit
#

Eh

#

||I still preferred the meta aspect of blink, of when the audience sees them they cant move anymore|| doctor who s5

#

Which removes a lot of the inconsistencies within that ep as well

undone junco
#

fair enough

#

dr who s5 || but still minor gripes here and there aside, it was pretty good, built up the mystery of the time cracks further and nicely explored river song as a character, lot to like there still ||

#

chibnall's two parter genuinely bored me to tears

brave orbit
#

It is cool

#

I really like the commentary

#

Dr who s5 ||Humans being the guests and taking over the sylurians, and are now trying to exploit them etc ||

undone junco
#

dr who s5 || was not even remotely important until near the end, felt like humanity's stupidity and malice had been explored well enough before so this didnt exactly feel revolutionary, at most this was like a one episode story lol||

#

oh next episode was very great though

brave orbit
#

Amy's choice?

undone junco
#

no that was good too but vincent and the doctor

brave orbit
#

Yea that one is great

#

Vincent's actor is apparently really well known and they couldnt afford him, but he offered to do it anyway because of the story

#

Cool stuff

#

Also bill nye lol

undone junco
#

dr who s5 || i always really like these little windows into familiar historical events, so this was going to be fun already but I didnt expect it to get that heavy near the end, great stuff. Also really really feel bad for Amy after this||

#

didnt expect him to show up lol

brave orbit
#

Wish more episodes focused on mental health
