To those that watched the latest Dr who stuff is it something I can pick up without watching the prior stuff?

I probably asked this before the new stuff came out so idk

[worthy crypt]

Yeah its very episodic you can jump in randomly at any episode pretty much and be mostly fine. Definitely be fine if just starting at new season

[glacial jetty]

the new season is intended to be something of a soft reboot so new viewers can jump in

[autumn basin]

Btw, perhaps Susan is coming back,

Since they referenced the 1963 doctor and stuff.

Susan never truely got an ending

[burnt lake]

Gotcha, I'll probably watch it at some point this following week when I get the chance

I do think this new dr who season is pushing away a lot of (new) fans.

I personally like Doctor Who.
But a lot of old fans start to Dislikes it the past few seasons

[cunning spruce]

Ehh yea, I just got bored with it after the eleventh doctor tbh. Sorry Fed.

[brave orbit]

[glacial jetty]

I have high expectations for the moffat episode

First two were alright

[brave orbit]

2 was quite poggies

9/10

1 was like 6.5, was aight

[glacial jetty]

I enjoyed 2 a lot more

[brave orbit]

How many times did you spot Susan Twist so far

LETS FUCKING GOOOOO

[glacial jetty]

🫣I’m not gonna read that

I wanna go in blind

But I can feel it

S4 moffat tier episode

[brave orbit]

Steven Moffat makes a triumphant return to the series with “Boom,” delivering a tour-de-force of storytelling that keeps viewers on the edge of their seats throughout. Moffat’s expertly crafted script, paired with the outstanding performances of Ncuti Gatwa and Millie Gibson, catapults this episode to the pinnacle of RTD2’s offerings so far. Gatwa’s portrayal exudes charisma and vulnerability, solidifying his claim to the title of The Doctor, whilst Gibson’s portrayal of companion Ruby adds depth and emotion, highlighting the evolving dynamic between the two characters as they navigate the dangers of a landmine-ridden battleground

Seems like a Silence in the Library type of ep

The guy gave it a 9/10

[glacial jetty]

It’s going to be great I’m sure, I’m a little more concerned about the rtd episodes

And he’s writing a lot of them

[brave orbit]

Wait for ep 5

He said its his favourite script ever

Either 4 or 5 idr

But ik what you mean lol

[neon yacht]

i can't wait for deadpool vs wolverine

[worthy crypt]

im still really optimistic for the new doc and ruby but i did not really like the maestro one. space babies and goblins were ok.

[brave orbit]

Maestro one was goated

[worthy crypt]

i didnt really like the maestro's acting. || and didnt really feel like they got outsmarted, doc then the beatles just randomly thought up the right chord ||

|| also felt like beatles barely in it and not a well-connected integral part of the story, just someone they visited in the beginning who wandered in to randomly fix things in the end ||

|| dont really feel like maestro well embodied music powers either in practice except for messing with the tardis a bit music power manfiests as... being able to create sheet music rope...? ||

[edgy scroll]

Disney Who

[brave orbit]

Uh? ||They didnt get outsmarted, the Beatles were inspired by what the doctor already came up with, they even had the speech about thinking about notes one at a time and they were repressing that creative side||

[brave orbit]

What

[brave orbit]

||I mean, fair, but the point of the episode was about a world where the Beatles never really were a part of it||

[burnt lake]

Man I'm really taking my sweet ass time with usm 2024

[worthy crypt]

|| i use outsmarted as like a gerneral term to mean 'beaten'. But yeah they just needed to think about it? I dont feel like they showed any journey to them getting there. Its just some chord randomly summons then they are randomly banished when they think up some other musical sequence. the ep was motly just running away until that random inspiration hit that could have hit at any time. ||

[burnt lake]

I only just read the latest issue

[brave orbit]

||There wasn't a journey, it was just their potential which was left dormant. This is the first time they could express it and it was how maestro got beaten||

It was estabilished within the episode too so this means like wanting something else just because

[worthy crypt]

|| thats fair i guess i just didnt like that form of story. It felt like a lot of 'and then this happened' and not a lot of 'therefore this happened'. And yeah idk that was my subjective real reaction, i wanted something else. It could have been vincent and the doctor 2 and it was not even close||

[brave orbit]

||I didnt check but the chord probably was a reference to an actual Beatles song||

[glacial jetty]

pretty sure it was

[worthy crypt]

probably yeah im not that familiar with their music though cant say for sure

[glacial jetty]

from what i read its the end to A Day in the Life

[worthy crypt]

dr who in general is pretty hit and miss based on personal preferences though so im still pretty optimsitic for the forthcoming eps

[glacial jetty]

but i dont have headphones on me to confirm right now

[worthy crypt]

i like that one with james corden that everyone hates

[brave orbit]

||Fair but the episode was about "How could we make a Beatles episode without their songs" for copyright purposes, and I think it was a really creative and well executed story with that premise in mind||

[brave orbit]

P sure everyone enjoys that one lol

[glacial jetty]

nah

the lodger is controversial

[worthy crypt]

yeah i can appreciate that from a meta perspective but i didnt get that really get anything from that in my viewing experience

[brave orbit]

The first one is universally enjoyed

[glacial jetty]

drwho the lodger || i think its hilarious but also kind of bad ||

||also the worst use of a cyberman ever||

[brave orbit]

Barely can be considered that lol

[glacial jetty]

oh im thinking of hanging time

[brave orbit]

Yea

The second one is bad

[glacial jetty]

i think they

're both pretty funny though

[brave orbit]

Matt and Corden have good chemistry i think so yea

[glacial jetty]

episode 6 is written by the director and producer of loki

i look forward to that one

[worthy crypt]

does it come out on sundays ?

[brave orbit]

Saturday

[brave orbit]

I think its the only one not written by rtd or moffat

This season

[glacial jetty]

ye

[brave orbit]

Yet to elaborate btw

[worthy crypt]

i could see the songs/music stuff being an addition from disney. But i dont mind them that much

[brave orbit]

They arent

[glacial jetty]

i think they're insinuating that criticism is somehow a consequence of disney's involvement

which obviously doesnt make sense

but anyway

[worthy crypt]

like not even just the maestro one the goblin one also had a song that felt a little out of place but whatever it was fine

[brave orbit]

RTD likes them

[glacial jetty]

i actually liked the goblin song more

[brave orbit]

Same

[glacial jetty]

but rtd's writing in general has been a bit more...childish? so far

than ever before i think

[brave orbit]

I would agree if i didnt remember RTD1 lol

[glacial jetty]

he had an immature side for sure, but i feel the tone was a bit different from the getgo

but part of that is the doctor

[brave orbit]

I mean ..

Aliens of london

[glacial jetty]

drwho s14 || 15 is written with a lot less darkness, as expected of his character development ||

[brave orbit]

Farting aliens

[worthy crypt]

are those the farting guys in 9

yeah oof

[glacial jetty]

yeah i recall

i dont think the overall tone comes close to space babies though

[brave orbit]

Or love and monsters

[glacial jetty]

love and monsters is kino

i won't hear otherwise

[brave orbit]

I agree lol

But also the Master with Toxic, Kassandra, Jack

[glacial jetty]

jack was campy and immature, not as childish though

the specials had a different tone though, so i cant really say what the tone of the entire run will be based off of these first two

wild blue yonder was excellent

[brave orbit]

Yea ep 5 is gonna be like that

[glacial jetty]

dot and bubble?

[brave orbit]

Yea

I think

[glacial jetty]

gives me Smile vibes

[brave orbit]

Think its gonna be something related to social media

[glacial jetty]

oh

could be yeah

episode themes have been topical so far, especially space babies

[brave orbit]

Moffat's is about ||capitalism|| apparently DW S14

[glacial jetty]

the next one?

interesting

[brave orbit]

Yea, and war obv

[glacial jetty]

not what i'd have guessed from the setting, its definitely been done a fair bit

with oxygen and kerblam!

[brave orbit]

Kerblam didnt know what it was doing tbf lol

[glacial jetty]

yeah that was a miss

oxygen is a top 6 twelve episode though

[brave orbit]

Its one of my fav jodie stories still but yea thematically makes no sense

[brave orbit]

Yea its great

I thought that DW S14E1 ||The space station being affected by neoliberalist austerity was kind of neat lol||

[glacial jetty]

i liked what it tried to do

it lacked some things though

[brave orbit]

I hope it becomes something we check back on like New New Earth

Would be neat

[glacial jetty]

RTD loves period pieces, i bet one of these is gonna be a historical 🤔

but which

[brave orbit]

Also i just noticed i didnt mention (DW S14E1) ||Colasanto's descendant, the Italian guy from Turn Left was in the cabin logs||

[brave orbit]

Do u want the answer

[glacial jetty]

drwho || was colasanto the guy who was taken away to a conc camp?||

i love him so much

[brave orbit]

He is so cool

[fickle ember]

What’d you think? Thought it was really good despite being actionless

[burnt lake]

Yeah I liked it a lot

It gave more characters some depth which I loved

[fickle ember]

USM 2024 || I like how manipulative Harry is being while under the guise of being a good guy, great stuff. Setting up character arcs early and all over dinner ||

Literally

[burnt lake]

Usm 2024 ||he definitely is giving off some ulterior motive kind of energy, something super manipulative about Harry knowing everything and as a staple making it a point to let him know that Gwen knows about Harry so MJ should know too||

Although

USM 2024 ||maybe I'm just reading too deep and Harry actually is a good person with just some shady billionaire type energy||

[fickle ember]

USM 2024 || also when Gwen is saying all that stuff, we assume she doesn’t know, but then when find out it kind of gives it a second meaning with how direct she’s being. Essentially being like you and Harry have to continue doing this type of message ||

[burnt lake]

Usm 2024 ||it makes the iconic line give new meaning||

[fickle ember]

Yeah maybe, gonna be fun finding out

X-men on 15th

[burnt lake]

Usm 2024 ||"with great power comes great responsibility" being a double sided edge giving Harry a manipulative hand in forcing Peter to play along and usurp crime syndicates so everyone can be on Harry's payroll to keep things quiet while he does shady shit||

[fickle ember]

[burnt lake]

That's just my theory anyhow

Usm 2024 ||then the good old classic Harry v Peter near the end of the run after everything hits the fan||

[final cedar]

Finished Season 2 of Blood of Zeus on Netflix and really enjoyed it. It is a adult animated show based on Greek mythology with interesting characters, plot and good animation style. Hopefully it will get renewed.

I think he just wanted to liberate himself while he was shooting. So he didn’t have to wait for stuff, and then he’d say ‘Oh, I’ll fix it later. I’ll fix it in post – which I guess he’s done.” The virtual “volume” was abandoned in favour of more traditional “green screen” technology”, according to one source: “His dig at us was always, ‘I don’t want to make a Marvel movie,’ but at the end of the day, that’s what he ended up shooting

[modern lichen]

The article itself is extremely silly as a whole

But this one part

Good god

[buoyant iris]

Is this real
I Don't often use source

[little cipher]

Hes an old man who can't grasp the world he lives in now, he should have retired or someone should have told him no or put a co director on the project but he's lost it and thinks hes still in his 20's

[modern lichen]

It’s according to some anonymous crew members

So the source is unknown

But I genuinely think this is his last film

I need some more of this to come out for it to be verified to be seriously but this part is just.. not good

The rest of the article is just stupid

[little cipher]

Even without the sexual harassment allegation the rest of the news and production sound like hes awful to work with.

[little cipher]

sure does spend a lot of time trying to build the guy up before trying to hide that bit in the middle

[modern lichen]

But what’s weird is that Adam Driver and all of the cast and some of the crew openly refuted this pretty clearly so it’s in a weird middle ground where a portion of the crew starts anonymously leaking info beforehand

Coppola never had a reputation for being a “safe” filmmaker, just look at fuckin Apocalypse Now, that has passed into legend for his own near descent into insanity during the production of that film but this article is extremely weird

Unserious crew members

How you work on a film and don’t know how filmmaking and art works? Fuckin business majors getting into films and then saying stupid shit like this

[regal root]

But they want to make the movie "better"

https://tenor.com/view/finger-quotes-drevil-austin-powers-gif-5654378

[pine wharf]

Yeah if the actors don’t come out about it, seems more like a hit piece if anything

[modern lichen]

Most of this article is like that lmao, it’s filled with quotes by idiots trying to accuse Coppola with zero understanding about art

[pine wharf]

People just discovering how unhinged Coppola can be 40 years too late lmao

[modern lichen]

The only part I took seriously was the harassment part

Yeah, he nearly was driven to insanity during the production of Apocalypse Now, this actually seems tame

[pine wharf]

Well I remember hearing that megalopolis was actually well into production 20 years earlier. He had De Niro and nic cage (lol) and a bunch of other a lists on that at the time

But 9/11 made it fall into the scrap

[modern lichen]

He had the idea for this movie since the 70s and it only came into actualization now

[pine wharf]

Yeah I heard about that. Glad it’s finally made it out

[modern lichen]

I’m still mad about the VFX thing, yeah he used VFX instead of a volume but like, it looks good? CGI looks extremely fuckin good I have no clue what that quote is trying to establish

[pine wharf]

Some pretentious bs probably

Big franchise so there’s a lot of hit and miss, but go for it

[burnt lake]

The original trilogy of films are great, the prequels are also pretty fun. The sequels are kind of boring and mixed personally.

Spinoff series are generally moreso just fun stuffs but the movies are the essentials

[shrewd sigil]

mistborn bands of mourning ending || the whole conversation with Saze and Wax been stuck in my mind since i read it, any scene with Sazed just always hits good man||

‘FURIOSA’ debuts with 90% on Rotten Tomatoes.

• Described as one of the best prequels ever made & a bold masterpiece

• A fierce & gripping performance from Anya Taylor-Joy.

• Just got a 7-min standing ovation at Cannes.

George Miller is a filmmaking god

[feral kettle]

i always wonder do they really stand and clap for that long at cannes

[modern lichen]

yeah

they just stand there and clap lol

[feral kettle]

watched lady from shanghai and got reminded how experimental welles is

[modern lichen]

have you watched f for fake?

[buoyant iris]

Is there a Sequel R for Real?

[modern lichen]

its s for stfu :)

ok that was mean

[buoyant iris]

It f for fine

[modern lichen]

touch of evil next?

[feral kettle]

Ambersons most likely

I do want to get to all of his films

Touch of evil and the trial look really good

[modern lichen]

Touch of Evil has one of the greatest long takes of all time, a masterwork of suspense

[feral kettle]

Ive seen the beginning before

[modern lichen]

Yeah, it’s a good film

[feral kettle]

speaking of suspense hitchcock is probably my biggest blindspot, ive only seen like 3 or 4 and none in a great setting or remotely recently tbh

Except vertigo

i saw that like late last year and loved it

[modern lichen]

Start off with Rear Window if you’ve already seen Vertigo

And then go from there

You could go back to his black and white pictures or just the color work he did (both eras are great)

[feral kettle]

Ive seen rear window but yhat was part of a class

and i honestly didnt engage with it much

but it might be his best off memory

[modern lichen]

For me it is, yeah

I think watching it without the need to dissect it is going to make it so much greater

[sage remnant]

TWOK || Man the Chasmfiend Hunt chapter 🧎‍♂️ ||

[modern lichen]

Have you seen a lot of Japanese stuff

[feral kettle]

not enough

Kind of all over tbe place with what ive seen

[modern lichen]

You’re watching a lot of like, experimental stuff now, all of that pretty much bores me at this point

[feral kettle]

Less ‘essential’ ig but i rewatched cimino’s thunderbolt and lightfoot and i wanna finish up his films now

Heaven’s Gate

[feral kettle]

Speaking of experimental westerns and “anti-westerns”, since you like Eastwood as well, check out Altman’s McCabe and Mrs Miller if you haven’t seen it already

[feral kettle]

for sure altman is a must

[modern lichen]

One of the greats

[feral kettle]

Altman and cassavetes are some of the big unexplored NH guys i wanna get to

[coarse flower]

Rope, Freny, the lady vanishes,the man who knew too much, shadow of a doubt, Marnie, the trouble with Harry, the wrong man,lifeboat,stage fright,family plot,i confess

Hitchcock is just insane

The amount of great movies he made is almost unparalled

[mild seal]

hitchcock is insane

oh wait I'm thinking of kubrick I think

[coarse flower]

Kubrick didn't make this many movies

[mild seal]

oh I'm just talking about being insane

I read somewhere that he did the lighting for someone else's movie while making his own

the director asked him a question about lighting and dude just did it without telling him

[modern lichen]

Kubrick was a photographer for a magazine as a teenager

The man was naturally talented

[mild seal]

man I'm trying to find where I read that

cause I don't remember what movie it was too

I give up, just assume what I said isn't true

[crimson lance]

havent read it myself

[safe rune]

I recommend supergirl by Tom king and obviously If you haven't read it batman year one

[leaden depot]

Crisis on Infinite Earths? I wouldn't recommend it

[sage remnant]

@leaden depot where to start Hellboy from?

@modern lichen

[safe rune]

I'm not Hog but I recommend just starting from hellboy seed of destruction

Thanks edward

[safe rune]

No problem I hope you enjoy it

[safe rune]

Oh there's alot of titles/ books in the hellboy universe that connects and weave into each other this website has the full update list http://www.multiversitycomics.com/annotations/hellboy-reading-order-2023/ but the essentials are hellboy titles and B.R.P.D but you just completely just read the hellboy titled books by themselves which in total is 6 omnibus that are all shortish none of them are above 500 pages

new dr who Boom was pretty solid, probably tied with goblins as my favorite of the new season so far.

[brave orbit]

Rn its

Wild blue yonder
Boom
Devils chord
Star Beast
Giggle
Church on ruby road
Space babies

Although space babies is still like a 6.5

Church is a 7 or 7.5

Giggle is like a 8 along with star beast

WBY is a 10/10

Boom is a 9.5

I predict next episode might overtake Boom

[modern lichen]

Can’t wait for Furiosa oh god, gonna rewatch Fury Road with my cousin before we head off to see Furiosa in the cinemas

Wild Blue > Boom > Ruby Road > Star Beast > Giggle > Babies > Devil's Chord.
Giggle and devil's chord a bit too over the top for my personal taste and babies was just a little bland comparatively.

Alot of people skip the first one and you can do so totally fine

If you know anything about X-men at all you can basically skip the first series, nothing ground breaking there or that you wont be able to figure out with context

These masterworks also included tons of side issues and stuff so you don't have to open another book to read a cross over or anything

[past kite]

Thank you, i read comment about live action The Last Stand supposed to be two arc, the Cure and Dark Phoenix, i guess i can reach that if i follow the 2nd one

New season leaks?

[brave orbit]

[tawny parcel]

[edgy scroll]

probably not

is this LA or Animated anyone know?

[sage sleet]

bet on la

[regal root]

I would have to guess LA since they just did a sequel to the X-men cartoon from the 90s and have just begun introducing X-men characters as of the latest MCU movies

[fickle ember]

Where’s my animated sequel to xmen evolution tho

https://tenor.com/view/xmen-evolution-xmen-marvel-cyclops-jean-grey-gif-20446662

[regal root]

It was so good too

[fickle ember]

That spike guy is entirely original too

Thought he was fucking super important entire time before I started reading stuff

[regal root]

[crimson lance]

this show is so crazy in hindsight for how it chose to adapt everything

making kitty a air head minor member of the team, making storm and logan the only adults on the team while cyclops jean etc are kids, making iceman a background character and a new mutant, making the new mutants lame

[fickle ember]

That’s what you need to do when tackling something as convoluted as X-men

[crimson lance]

Also i dont think i ever said anything but im like 10 years deep into claremont xmen lol

[fickle ember]

[crimson lance]

Ive been reading it a shit ton but now ive gotten to the point where its harder to keep track of things and some comics are behind a paywall

im waiting a couple of weeks to continue so i can read X-factor in good quality after i get paid

Between the main xmen book and new mutants ive discovered like 10 artist i love now which is really cool

I'm becoming a big bill sienkiewicz and barry winsdor smith fan

I'm also becoming a real big fan of Gene colan because of his great work on daredevil

this guy is really the only thing holding daredevil together before frank miller gets involved

[mild seal]

onslaught is one of my favorite x-men characters because of marvel vs capcom so one day I wanna read that story

[final cedar]

Finished Sugar on Apple TV plus starring Colin Farell and quite enjoyed it. The performances are great, story was quite interesting too.

If anyone is interested in watching this show then watch it without knowing anything about it.

[leaden depot]

The LA movies always did Cyclops so dirty lmao

[crimson lance]

yeah its insane

cyclopss is one of the best x-men and all around best marvel characters

[leaden depot]

Also the leader whenever Xavier ain't around, just feels right to me

Im still early on the OG run but that choice just made sense to me

[crimson lance]

I feel an air of superiority for reading the original run when most people skip it

but also its really boring

[leaden depot]

Issue 12 ruled for me

Juggernaut looks like a Hulk level threat lol

[crimson lance]

is that juggernaut

yeah i was going to say

are you on issue 13 or something

dont want to talk too far ahead of where you are

[leaden depot]

Yeah that is the next one

[crimson lance]

ah

well it gets better from here for a while

Just wait till you get to the neal adams run of x-men in the last like dozen issues of og xmen, its so good

very funny that x-men was cancelled because of its sales, but neal adams was saving the books sales and marvel just couldnt track it well back then

[leaden depot]

I don't think Roy Thomas wanted to write it much lmao

He takes over on issue 20 or 21 I think

tbh he was also a noob

Kinda wild to give the writing assignments to a rookie like that lol

[mild seal]

woah this is so weird, you talking about chris claremont and then a documentary on his x-men run shows up on my prime recommended

[crimson lance]

You see the bullshit thomas was getting up to lately?

he's claiming co credit for wolverine and its being treated as a real thing

he had nothing to do with it at all but now he's considered one of the creators

[leaden depot]

lmao

[fickle ember]

I might read it some day if I get into mainline X-men…

But I would definitely stop before xmen mania took over

Nightwing, Tom Taylor begins his last arc for the run

[crimson lance]

Timm knows what he's doing

[fluid merlin]

Furiosa was fantastic, better than I dared to hope for

[covert monolith]

what are your thoughts on Breaking Bad

[uncut yarrow]

its breaking good

(but better call saul is better)

[proud fiber]

ive been paused on the 2nd season for a bit since its been kinda slow

[little hull]

Just watched green book, great movie

[proud fiber]

is the rest of it like way better?

[little hull]

Had nice shots too

Green book ||Its not an innovative movie by any means but I enjoyed it, two different characters go on a trip and learn to love each other despite their differences. There were many sweet and funny moments. Again nothing new but just a great watch. The car pull over scene in the rain was my favorite shot, the cinematography was nice||

[edgy scroll]

amazing show, a must watch. better call saul on the other hand i would personally say skip, but some people say otherwise

[uncut yarrow]

keep going :P
