||https://youtu.be/zSuxFK6Hhvw?si=jIj_5FMv2XE2sZ-R|| Dr Who critique old gen/new spoilers. It's insane to me everything he said can be applied to his era as showrunner.
Chris Chibnall reviews his own nuwho episode, "42".
chibnail was very meh
Nah all the episodes for s1 are there
I mean to start from there
Its an issue when you go back to old who
I had meant that and star thought I meant to start from classic who
Nah don't unless you want to
Seems like far too much 
Usually if people want to i say do it piece meal
Priority should be new who to get into it
I see
Still peak till s11 for me I need to watch stuff that's most recent
Classic 
Been watching old simpsons lately
One of my favourite moments in the Simpsons: Season 5 - Episode Cape Feare.
They're so consistently good
It's amazing to me that so many episodes have not just one, but 3-4 classic moments in them
10/10
Some eps are just nothing but back to back classic moments they were on something else back then
Hank Scorpio episode comes to mind
Or Bart vs Australia which you're expected to know by heart to qualify for Australian citizenship
Haven’t seen Harsh in a bit
did you watch black mirror S7
i think you watched Black mirror right
I’ve seen one episode
@sage remnant Stormlight question, spoilers all books ||Are there theories as to what the Origin is and if there are lands beyond Roshar?||
Okay so Nosferatu (2024) is amazing
It was peak
Count Orlok especially was done very well ||https://tenor.com/view/nosferatu-2024-bill-skarsgård-gif-12428694675546131776||
I’m sorry Lisa, my dang phone doesn’t let me spoiler gifs before they post
I’m trying 😭
Just be careful man
||this was my favorite performance from last year tbh.|| nosferatu 2024
||the way he talked, moved and looked just screamed classic Romanian vampire.|| nosferatu 2024
||Tbh Lily Rose-Depp & Willem Dafoe turned in great performances too|| Nosferatu 2024
||I can't disagree with this take Robert eggers always gets the best out of his actors. And the movie being so cheap is insane.|| nosferatu 2024
stormlight all || its just folklore ||
mistborn hero of ages reread ||the marsh and tensoon chapters are so good||
||the spook chapters are finally starting next chapter aswell which im excited for, i really enjoyed his pov during my first read if I'm remembering right||
Last of us came out?
FR
Had to look away at some scenes in ep 1
Season 2?
Yeah
Stormlight all || I think it's of the location of Honor's Shardpool before Tanavast died and it became continuously changing, and it's due to that the Storm starts (needs to have more affinity to Honor's investiture) || @limber urchin
don't think there's a theory post WaT cuz most what I have found seems to be pre WoR or like with predictions that WaT already contradicts
oh. darn.
On the second thought, I'm gonna ignore everything you and Spice said and insert my own headcanon. 
@limber urchin I forgot to share the most craziest truth theory
which is?
WAT all ||Are they suggesting that Cultivation was playing a much greater game of 4D chess than we assumed? 'Cause I assumed she was doing some manipulation since the books outright stated she did.||
Or WAT all ||Are they suggesting Cultivation could be an end game villain?||
WaT all || So far, in the stated stuff, Cultivation was doing manipulations which failed, Taravangian becoming worse enemy than Rayse.
But what it seems like her failures, seem to be her more indepth manipulations, from according to that person. All this time she wanted for Retribution to come, and the state the world is in rn to be the one she was targetting ||
Also, are there any batshit crazy theories? 'Cause there are some in the ASOIAF community that can make Alex Jones look sane.
There are a lot. But I don't indulge in theories much for Stormlight as I do for OP
I kind of like this interpretation if it ends up being true. Or is actually true as the theorist above suggests.
yeah it's like too fitting to not be true
oh that's very neat
one piece theories are already destroying too many of my brain cells I dont need any more
I dont even look for op theories voluntarily anyway
I dont like theories in general tbh
if they're wrong they're most likely the most stupid shit ever and its a waste of time even reading it
if they're right they kinda spoil me
there is no winning

Godzilla news - || https://x.com/DiscussingFilm/status/1911881386849415482 ||
Takashi Yamazaki's next Godzilla film will be a direct sequel to ‘GODZILLA MINUS ONE’
(Source: https://t.co/Op3OooNFPA)
Read mistborn next 
pissborn? No thank you.
in reality I read about 1/4 of the first book years back and one day I'll get back to it. For now, I was going to pick up frakenstein, but then I felt an urge to finally finish The Name of the Wind last night, but I needed to start over since I forgot whatever portion I initially read a while back.
Really hope this is good
When's Mothra Minus One, free my girl

Jet Jaguar Minus One
Godzilla Minus One ||Godzilla Minus One, Chapter Two: Shin Godzilla 2||
dont bother
rothfuss is almost as bad as martin
worse since hes nowhere as good as a writer
it's too late. i'll report on my findings. if i don't like it, i'll find someone to blame for this mistake, just not myself
mistborn hero of ages reread ||still so hype despite knowing that this is ruin not kell
||
mistborn all ||also my future goat melaan finally showing up in the tensoon chapters
||
mistborn || spooks arc is so good, I didnt think I'd like him that much when we first saw him talking gibberish ||
is the last of us season 2 good
mistborn ||same, i was neutral on him in the first 2 books then after the 3rd he became one of my favorite characters from era 1||
mistborn HoA ch23
Adwd|| i can not believe I called this when they talked about a dwarf following them that he remembered but also there was not any other dwarfs in the series so i guess it was obvious. Just a crazy random character to call back to lol ||
There’s something so sinister about reading books on your phone
This guy always saying literally anything to be a bit different
why would you read Name of the Wind
when the third book isn't coming out
Rothfuss atleast is the better writer

Adwd ||damn Davos…
||
atla live action s2 ||https://fixupx.com/DiscussAvatar/status/1911873008936812669?t=-gNmVszU8z_t0X92_TQGSQ&s=19||
💔
proof she never watched the show

We'll find out won't we.
ADWD ||Davos, my king.||
huge L
I’m gonna watch Jurassic park
damn that dino cg sure is something
Jurassic Park ||Ewww the dino baby is so ugly. 🤢 ||
Jurassic peak
Adwd ||davos is the peoples champion i love him ||
Adwd ||just a genuine dude trying his best ||
say one bad word about film. i dare you.
Bad
it's so over
ADWD ||Davos is such a good POV 'because unlike most other characters, he's part of the smallfolk. We can relate to him far more than Jon, Cersei, Jamie, Tyrion, Arya, and other highborns.||
Jurassic park is actually a perfect film dude
Jurassic Shart
I had the chance to watch it as a rerelease in theaters and i remembered how fucking incredible it was
Just so awesome
i cried at Jurassic Park || the t-rex. i was also 5 in a theater. my mom had to take me out to the car.||
Which Dinosaur is the ugliest
probably ones from the sequels since the og has no flaws
Adwd ||he’s def up there as one of my favorite characters, Tyrion who I normally enjoy a ton this book just hasn’t felt like he’s been doing much, but him being with Jorah now finally feels like he’s doing stuff. And Jons chapters have been really good with him struggling as lord commander||
And you haven't seen the show, right?
Well, if you ever do, you'll be happy to know that character is very well cast and easy to love.
I heard season 1 can just be watched and none beyond
Afaik its like season 4
Depends on who you ask.
And like maybe 5-6 if ur generous
Me, I say all the way through season 4 will be solid. Some would argue up through season 3 is the most ideal experience. But most collectively agree season 5 and beyond is the falloff with season seasons 7 and 8 being genuinely questionable and/or bad.
Wait which character lol i was talking about 3
Are u referring to peter Dinklage
No. Liam Cunningham who plays ASOIAF ||Davos||
Oh okay
Yeah I’m tempted to watch the show but not anytime soon because while I’ve really enjoyed reading these books I’m ready to move on to something else
Not that I’m not enjoying this one
I should note my favorite scene in GoT comes from season 5 ||Hardhome, because it did such a great job of capturing the existential threat of the White Walkers. It felt like actual horror.||
I don't blame you, don't overstaturate yourself if you're not feeling it.
I just dont want to have finished a 100 hour plus series just to go to like a 40 hour show lol
A couple smaller self contained books and then dune 1-3
Dune should keep you busy.
I just tried to get as many books from as different places as possible lol
I have american prometheus as a biography, dune as scifi, i got the gambler from dystovesky as a classic literature kinda thing, just like a bunch of random stuff lol
I got a stephen king book for horror because I’ve never read a horror book and like how a book make you scared bro
I just dont wanna go straight from one epic to another lol
Although dune looks significantly smaller than asoiaf
And then i have stormlight one but that wont be till like im done with everything else at least
Where does the Merriam Webster Dictionary priority rank in your PTR?
Way smaller lmao
My gf got the dune books for me so I’m extra excited
Paper or hardback?
Paper although if i like it enough i might just go for hardback because they’re gorgeous
Still very nice of her. Especially as an entry to the series
And only like 20-30 bucks each
I mean I’m kinda all for that anyways i kinda prefer reading paperback for actual reading anyways
I don’t actually read
Maybe that’s the difference
I just look at the spines and imagine
Like a true reader in 2025
No but just reading a hardcover in bed is kinda big and clunky so i kinda just read a dance with dragons on my phone in bed because i have hardcover for the fifth one
Tablet peeps stay winning
It's way crazier
But if you read only the first 3 books you will not get to the best book
Idk just people in this server say books 4-6 are trash…
Maybe I’ll just read them to form my own opinion
Book 4 is not trash
But I’m not even there yet
Jurassic Park was alright. I had fun at least

Alright…
Its okay none of the others are worth it
Jurassic park ||i love the whole almost like full on genre shift with the escape of the t-rex||
so based
Book 4 truthers
mistborn era 1&2 ||these mentions of yomen reminded me that his family is still going strong in era 2||
maan I'm gonna need alot of self control to not get sucked into era 2 once im done with hero of ages
I stopped after book 2 
Daredevil BA Episode 9 ||Holy fudge Gallo's death was insane||
Absolutely agree
A song of ice and fire spoilers/game of thrones. My tier list is imagine some hate takes in there.
asoiaf ||robert arynn not in d tier immediately invalid||

A song of ice and fire ||I found him mildly amusing||
Asoiaf|| hes lowkey joffrey level not because hes a psychopath but because hes a whiny bitch||
Asoiaf ||i hate Joffrey alot but I know it's because he was written to be perfectly like that.||
Asoiaf||book euron being that high should be suprising to no one.||
Halfway thru adwd ||but young griff a but high

Asoiaf ||that belwas brother has always been useful.||
Asoiaf ||i like the little bastard||
I like how you dint question ||selmy ar S|| a song of ice and fire

I'll give you that one
Fire and blood has a lot of good lore
I'd also recommend the world of ice and fire
It took me like 2 months last time
Asoiaf ||shit like this is why I prefer book jaime by miles.||
First time it was like 4 I think
lmao bruh I just leaned asmongold has a cameo in the new devil may cry series
if I had any doubts I wasnt gonna watch that shit now its certain
Daredevil BA ep 9 ||Where is Spider-Man bro 💔💔💔||
The writer not understanding basic lore was already bad enough
gotta check this out later, wow. You got ALL from the books or from just the two series ?
Lmfao
you have a tierlist?! lord have mercy.
Also, ASOIAF ||Craster should be S-tier. A real family man.
||
I’m gonna watch the Gremlin movies. Kinda got interested after seeing character inclusions in Multiversus. Wanna see what the stories are like
@sonic tree
That shits gonna go so hard and be so tuff
my friends who think I invited them to the cinema to watch Mickey 17 when they see the name of the movie on the ticket:

wtf Spielberg directed this????
These little gremlins look so authentic
Weren't they physical props?
Gremlins ||Holy shit, evil gremlin used a GUN. Das crazy||
Gremlins ||I wonder how Warner Bros got the Disney license to show snow white in the story||
Miku 17
Finished Gremlins ||This was fun. If I were a younger person, I would definitely be scared of the green gremlin, because holy shit man, that one that was melting but still jumped the guy really caught me off guard. 😭 ||
Gremlins kicks ass
The second movie is insanely bad
By the way bon I watched wicked on my plane ride. I got so much to say about it, man

So many positive and amazing things to say about it, I’m sure
Is there any good western series?
No
they're all woke
the west has fallen
I don't like adore it but I thought it was a 7/10
Nice sets, decent dances, they fleshed out the story so things flow a little better than the play, the covers of the songs are great, I actually liked Ariana Grande
It's still Wickeds story and the lighting is ass and it's half a movie but I don't get the harsh reactions from a lot of people. It did everything it set out to do
The consensus I saw was “if you for some reason like the god awful play youll love this. If you havent seen the play youll realize why it sucks”.
Lol
Wicked ||and some of the complaints about the film like how stop and go Defying Gravity is are problems in the play too, it's admittedly worse in the film since it's taking time to zoom in on everyone's reactions but people are more familiar with the CD version of the song which streamlines it and forget that||
Wickeds no Phantom of the Opera or Lion King but it's hardly the worst show to come out of Broadway wtf
It's fun
Id rather see it again than fuckin Rent or Cats or something
I havent seen the movie or the play but I saw the sentiment a lot
That the movie was super faithful to a fault
And that the og isnt very good so that bleeds into the movie
I enjoyed it for the most part but I thought Ariana was awful. I ended up really liking Cynthia over her by a lot. Definitely the weaker link of the two main characters
I thought Michelle yeoh was for sure the worst thing about the movie lol
Wicked, sorta getting into Part 2 material ||Glindas a hard character to separate from the second half of the play in my head so I don't really know how she reads when she's JUST the shallow rich girl from Act 1 but I thought Ariana did a good job embodying that energy. Particularly in Popular||
And yeah Cynthia did great I just expected to hate Ariana going in and didnt so that's a brownie point for the film
Agreed
It's a shame Goldblum barely shows up in Part 1
Wicked ||I just think she played it very Ariana the whole way through until freaking popular. Like she was more mean girls rather than just preppy brat. It was almost a completely different character lol. I was not feeling her at all until that song and I was like oh okay there’s Glinda lol ||
Wicked ||I guess the difference is that that's how I remember her acting in the play lmao, a Nickelodeon highschool sitcom character who learns how the world actually works||
Whatever, Wicked moved me to tears it was so fucking fun and good. Saw the play years ago but forgot it all.
9.5 witch hats/10
cringe!
I respect it
One of my roomies saw it like 4 times and I hear it's music coming from her phone like daily I get it
Might also why I might be cooling off on it slowly I'm just getting overexposed to it lol
I would easily watch it again
could help that I went in with zero expectations.
and had no idea what others thought of it
buffy did you watch cats
You know what kicks ass
Twisted, the Star Kidz parody of Wicked and Disney's Aladdin
I'm sure that's still on YouTube
Is the minecraft movie worth watching
can we swear
yes child
Yes but you have to put a quarter in the swear jar every time you do
frick
That counts
You love to see it. Love when originals do well

no cover?
February 2026 
they'll reveal it a few months before it releases probably
they did the same with wind and truth
also one thing that's really been irritating me
Cosmere || is with the whole "Space age" thing ||
||Why is every planet getting the space age around the same time when like worlds like Yolen have been there 10000+ years before current events of Roshar || Cosmere + WAT
cosmere ||when in doubt just blame adonalsium and the shards||

but also cosmere ||isn't yolen pretty much barely populated and hidden right now?||
Like I really wish there's a valid in universe response
we don't know
well
you might know
with only Stormlight knowledge
I don't know
it might've just been Brandon saying it
two things, if it doesn't happen, makes Brando a hack
there's an answer already but idk if it's too spoilery to say
||
Holograms being developed after normal LCD sort of displays in Roshar.
There not being planets in space age already || Stormlight Archive + general cosmere
fucking hell I've forgotten all of the cosmere terms 😭
cosmere space age if you want to open ||they're all using their powers to space travel so i assume that's why they all discovered how to travel space near the same time, since most of the planets got their shards at around the same time||
Cosmere || Yeah but there are worlds other than shardworlds ||
cosmere ||yeah but as far as we know it seems no one knows how to do space travel using just science and not abilities||
idk if that's what you meant
good good
I've been making good progress on hero of ages finally
in another server I am in, like almost everyone has HoA as their fav mistborn book

so you finding it a bore is so surprisng to me
realized that if I want to finish it I have to read from 2am to 5am
I've been liking it more and more honestly but I'm only a third of the way in still
i think I might've just been sick of mistborn when i was reading the first time icl 

mistborn will be soon™️
I am just waiting for my gf to start QS so have it in pause
and Blood sweat and Pixel isn't something I can like binge
it's individual stories sort
and I can't read until I have finished either
😭
you can always drop both of them...
no
I am enjoying both to an extent
quicksilver is cuz it's bad
wait lemme have you read a exceprt
or well about a plotpoint
@shrewd sigil
dude I read this when you first sent it 😭

wastoo stunned to reply
read these too
good god
I'll know I've reached either rock bottom mentally or peak degeneracy if I ever start reading this
oh that's really adorable
dude casually insulting me
😭
i mean you did like highschool dxd too...
but nah it's actually not that bad, I've seen fanfictions with genuinely disgusting plot points so I can't judge this much 😭
hey some of them are peak
those ones I just clicked off immediately
100% they were Arcane fanfics
nah it was mostly avatar
thankfully I learnt to read all the tags first by the time I got into arcane fanfics
in AO3 ig?
yeah
fanfic.net is usually more moderated
or well used to be
I haven't read a fanfic in a long time
I moved to AO3 in like
2015 i think
and then stopped reading fanfic a couple of years after
AO3 you can just blacklist all the weird tags so you don't have to deal with them
Good watch for today..
this is fantastic
i am super hyped for this but im curious how they're gonna handle Johnnys character, i have seen them say they dont want him to be an asshole but that kinda his whole thing 😭 like he needs a point to grow from, and actually develop as a character
You’re going in the note bud
Honestly after watching both trailers. Might be more excited for superman
you should be lol
fantastic four trailer looked great, hopefully we get a superman trailer for superman day
The Minds Eye series is so cool
late 80s CGI take on the Fantasia format, curated commercial and MTV clips stitched together so each suite forms something of a thematic arc to frame them and with a new musical score backing it all so they flow together seemlessly
this is exactly my kinda shit
where the hell can i watch Lawrence Lek's Geomancer is this really isolated to film festivals
My coworker and her 18 year old child went to go see the Hatsune Miku movie? Um wtf why is this a thing
Also unsure if this is a #western-series or #other-series thing
Was that child Cunk?

@sonic tree
its #other-series ye
they're seeing peak buddy
(I have not watched it)
superman || https://youtu.be/Rq5LyXG8m2U || not a trailer but cool shit still
We’re just getting started. #Superman - Only in Theaters and @imax, July 11 #LookUp #SupermanDay

Omg harsh ur back
Welcome back
hi, wombat 
i told no one lol
And I literally talked about you yesterday lmao
LOL
what up
ADWD @limber urchin ||THEONS A CUCK NOOOOOOOOOO
I’m so pissed he didn’t kill Ramsay man, like how you see all this and still be his bitch ||
ADWD ||Yeah, keep in mind, however, that Theon was tortured to a horrendous point of being too afraid to push back. It's like the worst kind of physical torture and Stockholm syndrome combined. He really fucked Theon up psychologically.||
Adwd ||No ik this was just like, an especially bad scene to read lmfao, I was thinking for a second just maybe but…||
In this respect, the show actually did a really good job making it feels worse in a way.
But also: Read and Find out.
Adwd ||the only thing that can save us is stannis…||
ADWD ||Stannis the Mannis
||
How you been bro
finals are kicking my ass but otherwise p great
Just rewatched his girl friday in the cinema
Classic, such a great film
This experimental film festival isndoing a kumar shahani tribute thats really exciting
ADWD/GOT end of series ||It's sad just how badly the show fumbled Stannis's character, he actually has nuance and depth in the books, instead we have his dumbass bring his wife and child into their war encampment and then him willingly sacrificing his own child, which he would never do if his character was accurately portrayed.||
I’ve been catching up to Rohmer
Cool shit
been really into lang and ray rn
Yeah ive seen it
Lang’s films are dope for the most part
I’ve been rewatching some of the underrated Mani Ratnam films
New Ratnam joint out this year itself
I’ve heard of that name
this is the festival i mentioned
Awesome!
Wish I was in the US for all the films but also don’t wanna go to the US for all the other bigger reasons
one of the worst times to be here tbh
but nyc programming is pretty great this year
has gotten me really into portuguese cinema
And they just announced a 30 film mikio naruse retrospective with all imported prints 🥲
Need to get more into Spanish and Portuguese films I heard they’re cool
margarida cordeiro and antonio reis are like a cinematic ground zero for me
Oliveira is a complete genius as well
I saw you just watched The Life of Oharu
Need to see it but i definitely csnt watch mizo films in close proximity because theyre so heavy
Visually and thematically heavy yeah, they’re so painterly
Not a frame wasted
Genius
I also rewatched Ikiru recently
It’s hard not to cry watching that film
i havent seen an a kurosawa in ages
Incredible composition of images
i wanna see dersu uzala really bad
Really good film
I love his color films as much but his essence in those black and white images
Magical
i might have a film internship lined up for the summer but im not 100% sure yet
i got a really good reference
Yeah ofc im just waiting to hear back
Yeah my old stuff is shite
thanks
I have a piece i got paid for published in a few weeks or so
I saw some of the stuff you’ve been writing, would appreciate some more long form stuff, I’ve seen some of those articles of yours
Letterboxd stuff is really just frgaments/notes id prefer to do anything longform elsewhere
I have been working on my short stories and stuff so I haven’t been focused on writing a lot on film
For now I’m just using Letterboxd to just log what I’m watching
Or write a line or 2
What’s it about
I interviewed larry gottheim in december of last year and he has a retrospective at moma coming next month
Yeah hes an experimental guy but he started the film department where nicholas ray taught in his last years
Afro Latino one I think
yeah
Actually ray is in horizons
and he drives the car for some of the parts of barn rushes
Yeah I’ve long past gone through that phase of experimental and avante garde shit lol
👎
I crave story now alongside images
Idk
It’s been years
I like shit like Rohmer for that reason
I think narrative only exists through images bc such is the form of cinema
Or Bergman
but also im more interested in realism than narrative which isnt that different but theres a slighr distinction
I wanna make films with actors for sure though
Realism is good but I’m fine with fantasy and sort of the blurring of that line as well in film
i mean realism in the bazin sense of the inherent ontology of using a camera
Oh I see
But yeah it obviously gets very interesting when theres tension
Yeah I can see coming that way
I wanna see alot of that 50s-60s peplum stuff
and earlier
like demille cottafavi tourneur walsh fleischer
Idk what I want to watch, not much left for me
Theres so many movies !
Yeah but so little time and there’s so much other shit out there I wanna experience
I can give you some names you mightve not seen
Yeah rhats true
at the end of the day its just movies
i dont think you should ever say youve ran ojr though
Lmao
I wanna revisit some Indian stuff
And watch more shit from my home ground
That gives me a massive leg up already since my country’s cinema is like 5-6 industries in one massive ecosystem
Im getting cooked rn i bought some overpriced coffee and its takint way too long for a small black coffee
theres so much there
I hate coffee bro I’m a chai guy
Ah
Chai that my mom makes every evening, makes my day fr
One advantage of living at home unemployed because of shit circumstances in the world
You get to chill
lmao sounds fire
That’s how I’m doing so much shit bro
I forgot, I rewatched Ben Hur today, the Heston version
Shit goes so hard
Well, gotta sleep, we’ll talk sometime soon again Devin, have fun with all the endeavors in your life, stay safe
wtf 😭
Have a good night, you too man
Sorry if I spoiled you but I did say GOT end of series
Was trying to talk about a difference between the books and the show
My b if I didn't say it properly
I haven’t seen the show but adwd/got|| that sound so random…lol, also Stannis’s wife is nonexistent in the books, its heavily implied Melisandre sleeps with him ||
No no
I meant like
Wtf were they thinking
lol
Tbf they pretty much ran out of book materail after S4 so they were free balling it the last 8 seasons
Pretty much
They didn't do a faithful adaptation from S5 onwards
Only bits and pieces
But small decisions they made earlier on in S1 through 4 had serious story consequences down the road
GOT S5 ||Bran wasn't even in S5||
You can click that, it isn't anything insane
I don’t care for show spoilers lol you can say whatever you want i dont plan on watching it any time soon since thr books have taken so long and if i did i would only watch it to like season 4, or just continue to watch it to see how bad they fumble
S6 was fun if you turned your brain off, 7 through 8 was a proper shit show
Was kinda impressive how badly they fumbled the bag down the stretch
Takes real talent to be that incompetent
All i know is like got end ||something like tyrion nominates bran as king and says like, I dont even remember what he says i just know its dumb as hell lol||
You want to hear something funny?
wow the odds, i open this server literally after weeks and the first thing i do is get spoiled
It’s labeled as game of thrones ending…
Apparently the reason why 7 and 8 were shortened was because the show runners had been offered by Disney to go a Star Wars project/show, and then promptly Disney canceled it pre-production
So they did it for nothing ultimately
So I’ve heard lol
Hence why they will forever be known as Dumb and Dumber
3 body problem is real good though
at least now they have a complete series to adapt
They had a star wars event or whatever i cant remember where recently but im just curious to see how much of this will actually go through with often star wars shit gets scrapped lol
What Disney has done to SW should be considered a hate crime
Broken clock
But they consistently hire writers and actors who actively don't like the source franchise and fans
And they when fans hate it and the series flop they do the shocked Pikachu face
And then do it again
Their trilogy is actually laughably embarrassing though
It just fails on literally almost every front
Arguably the biggest movie IP ever made and they destroy everything that made fans love it
It’s been beaten to death it’s just funny
daredevil BA e5 || nice ep. had me on edge with how matt would handle the hostage situation. fight scene at the end was brutal. i liked his scenes with kamala's dad. ||
game of thrones ending || "who has better story than bran the broken" ||
🔥
daredevil BA e6 || this ep was peak. muse is a disturbing bastard,the draining blood stuff was hard to watch. the juxtaposition of fisk beating up that guy and matt vs muse was incredible, solid action. looks like fisk anticipated daredevil's return due to muse so he decided to assemble all he corrupt cops for his task force, cant wait for frank to fuck them up ||
felt very much like the netflix series in fights and action
not yet 💔 , havent had the time, tomorrow tho
ep 1 tho?
They managed to make the worst trilogy
In film history
Some of the games are still good
Not worth everything else though
Still thinking back to the first week when episode 9 came out and real star wars diehards said it fixed episode 8 and redeemed the trilogy and was a good ending
And then everyone else saw it and was like this fucking sucks man
What diehards
Cause prequel and ot fans were cooking it
I remember having loads of conversations with people who said it was good and only episode 8 was bad
While it was still in theaters
This was cope ngl
Got into an argument with my cousin who was mad at me for disliking the film
Yeah it has to be
Nobody feels that way now
I was laughing in the theater when I watched the movie
People dint believe the leaks
Episode 8 is actually my favorite of the new films by a significant margin but ||I took two phone calls during that movie and both were during the Finn/Rose subplot so I think I accidentally saw a tighter edit||
I hate that one the most ngl
I cant get past the first 5 minutes
Whenever I try to watch it
Game of thrones end ||literally everyone😭 🙏 ||
severance s2 e6 || the love triangles getting out of control lol. dylans wife cheating on outie dylan with innie dylan. burt was in lumon before severance holy shit, im guessing he was a former exec or something. outie burt def evil now. that brain surgery scene made me so uneasy. ig next episode, mark finds gemma. ||
severance s2 e6 || the timing of burt inviting irv to dinner makes it likely it was a diversion for a lumon spy to collect stuff from irv's house. ||
daredevil BA e7 || didnt expect muse to die this early.damn,that was a bloody fight. matt's cabl move was so sick. did vanessa rly just try to have fisk killed damn, the rift in their relationships growing bigger. another peak episode||
daredevil BA e8 || damn, this episode is packed. so much crazy shit and reveals. the twist that it was vanessa who hired dex to kill foggy and that fisk didnt know was unexpected, i thought fisk did it. Then why did he decide to have dex killed while in prison then? I thought matt went off the deep end and conspired with dex to break him out and kill vanessa but he ended up taking the hit for them, whats his angle? Trying to buy favor with fisk? I was already loving this show from the start but damn, the last few episodes have me put this on par with OG series. ||
This show is way better than I expected, kinda have more faith in mcu now
daredevil ba e9 || seeing frank and matt back in action was awesome. the action in DD's roof was great. frank killed those corrupt cops brutally. glad disney isnt toning him down. Speaking of that, holy shit on fisk killing gallo. I cant believe they showed that. Prob a more goresome death than any death in the OG series, def earned the TV MA rating with that one. I wont be able to forget that scene due to how fucked up and visceral it is. I really hope they get back the defenders as the army because if those ppl at the bar are whats the "army", then thats a disapponting. Also hope karen gets more screentime. Last 2 episodes have been incredible and make me hopeful for s2, very much feels like a continuation of OG series. ||
Oh shit scored by Ludwig
Ryan Coogler directed it so yeah it’s Ludwig, he’s done all his films
They were friends from college
Crazy
Gotta watch it when I get home
I'll try, only real IMAX theater is 1hr away
Yeah I drove 1hr day before to watch it on the biggest screen possible too
I’m not gonna be able to go to imax unless i wait a while 
BURI
Congrats on helper Glex

Star Wars: Visions (S3 Preview)
|| https://fxtwitter.com/catsuka/status/1913776733301444984?s=46 ||
First preview of "Black" short film by Shinya Ohira & David Production from "Star Wars: Visions" Season 3.
︀︀Coming October 29 on Disney+.
Quoting Catsuka (@catsuka)
︀
Legendary japanese animator Shinya Ohira is directing an animated short called "Black" for the next season of "Star Wars: Visions", and here is the first image.
Oh my gooood
star wars doesn't deserve this
Very cool
@dim hedge yo
Hey
Did you watch the latest DW ep
I haven’t i forgot it started
S15 ep 2
I’ve gotta catch up tomorrow
Ty! Excited to check it out
Damn that was cool
shinya ohira is a genius
https://x.com/severuslly/status/1913748082711216193?s=46 @brave orbit @sage remnant
❤️
Damn
Did you watch the new ep?
I wish Capaldi’s run went about under a better showrunner he’s perhaps the perfect casting and could’ve been up to par with Tennant
No not yet
Was really creative
Live action mixed with 2D cartoon animation
I’m busy with watching The Pitt
absolute batman issue 7 ||this abomination being the absolute version of mr freeze, goddamn, these books cook so hard||
ultimate wolverine ||why he lookin like piccolo||

The ‘MINECRAFT’ movie is now likely to earn at least $1 billion overall.
The film has already passed $700M worldwide.
Read our review: https://t.co/uuggEo3o94
warner bros running to get that sequel movie out by next year
It’s really funny because I remember pre-release, a lot of people thought it’d be a failure
If the audience wants memes and the film delivers on all fronts can you truly call it bad
A modern day, international, high budget The Room done with intent
Maybe it's a work of art that's breaking new ground
it's not the memes
those can only take it so far
it's that kids like it
the movie is for them
like the mario film
or the fnaf movie that somehow made 300mil
I wonder how much the skibidi toilet movie will make
Skibillion
movies are a clique experience nowadays, and the mc movie provides (and proves) that
its basically just like going out to dinner, in terms of the social experience
cost doesnt justify going to the theater alone anymore, probably hasnt for a decade or two.
mistborn HoA ch39/cosmere
The general audience only goes to theatres if the movies feel like an event, MC movie apparently is one of those so its a success
also jack black is a huge draw as lead
theyve made it far too easy to watch movies at home
thats the main thing
and good tvs are comparatively cheap
mfs getting like 60 inch 4k tvs for 300 bucks sometimes if the deal is right
I don't want to assume but I think you'd enjoy the movie
Really good blues and some surprisingly good bit of music
thought you were talking about the minecraft movie lol
yeah, I plan on seeing sinners
No lmao
But yeah id say sinners deserves the praise it got for sure.
Real great job from Michael b Jordan and the cast
It actually feels like someone had a story they wanted to tell and poured their heart into it
If anyone is indecisive on it. I did not leave disappointed.
Seated for Sinners… so excited
the last of us season 2 episode 2 || aaaand from here is where viewercount is gonna start dropping dramatically
||
Sinners
Thats all, i actually don’t have words just Sinners
Sinners || cried throughout the entire end ||
Last of us s2e2, and the game || yeah like in the game, you hate Abby so much, but you have no choice but to play in her POV and then maybe people will like her eventually(which they didn't). Meanwhile, in the adaptation, you can just skip... I guess?||
invincible comic || seeing the hate on Amber pisses me off so much 😭, i bet its those same ppl who dont know how dating feels like ||
chad
Crossroad of Twilight || wowzers this just cannot get slower yes thank you RJ I really wanted to go back to Caemlyn after reading 200 pages of Perrin lamenting and being angry at the Shaido ||
Crossroad of Twilight || the one interesting thing is that the Saidin cleansing is happening alongside this along with the events of Winters Heart. That’s been my favorite part of the book seeing everyone’s reaction to the sheer amount of Saidin and Saidar that Rand and Nynaeve are using since it’s basically a beacon. I just wish to see what the towers reaction is ||
hahahaha (to first sentence)
Blade Runner (1982) review
||I thought the cinematography is literally S tier. So many shots I feel like I got lost in. As for the film itself, its definitely a masterpiece, just not a masterpiece to me. Some of the story was confusing to me but I understood the general concept I feel like. Ford is great, the replicants especially the last one were all amazing. And the idea of this being 2019 LA is fuckin hilarious lmao||
Rating: EXCELLENT-EXCEPTIONAL-10 (8.5)
this movie was so good bro
hella worth

"Judge buffet aint getting our movie the Oscar 💔 "

🔥

I'd say it's worth it for sure
@foggy mirage lol bruh we are getting spammed by this
@lucid cosmos was banned!
Reason: scam
I wanna hate everything about this but Bay feels like the perfect pick for something this stupid
Dude built like a whole career on hot sweaty people with fast cars and over the top setpieces
Severance S2 finale || they somehow found a way to top season 1 finale. Seeing Gemma calling out to Mark S as he ran away with Helly

this sounds accurate lol
@undone junco eejit
yea I watched the first 2 episodes just yesterday lol. at work atm so I will quickly just say
Smh am I just a second thought??? Is that all we really are??! 😭 😭 😭
Jk
you can type it later its ok
NO I am just busy smh, have to travel around for a wedding soon so just barely got the time to watch it yesterday amidst all the preparations
ah
Dr Who 2023 Season 2 || The Robot Revolution was fun, nothing crazy, but a lot better than Space Babies as an opener atleast. Oh and Belinda is GREAT. Now Lux though, that was brilliant. Super innovative, super creative and I really liked Lux as a villain. Also the animations were really great||
||I also really liked the part where they interacted with the fans lmao, "its always Blink" while 15 is just listing all his adventures
||
||Also the May 24th thing is very intriguing but man there better be a great payoff to the series long mysteries this time
. Mrs Flood is clearly going to be one of the Pantheon so I guess she is involved somehow since she keeps following them around ||
||It's also when the last ep airs|| Doctor who 2023 season 2
DR who 2023 s2 ||yea, seems like the "TV show" aspect might not be limited to just this episode, she even called it a limited time run which is mirroring the real life situation with the show's status lol||
Dr Who 2023 season 2 ||as for The Robot Revolution, I didnt really care much for the story there, but the best part of it was Belinda and her dynamic with 15. Especially really liked the ending sequence there where he's going all "oh we are meant to be connected, this is destiny" and she straight up shuts it down immediately. At the start of the episode, I thought the Sasha thing was kinda very empty and I didn't know why RTD was expecting us to care for these 6 months they spent together, but I guess the idea is to show that its the same from Belinda's perspective too.||
I can't type, brain not working when its focused somewhere else but I tried 😭
you by default arsal
@wooden swift pub I'm in has 10 identical crt TVs playing the exact same Simpsons episodes in time and everyone is respectfully sitting down, drinking and watching
Did you order a coffee
netflix
Is that related to mistborn or stormlight in any way or just a completely different series
yes
It's the fictional universe of books involving Mistborn, Stormlight, Warbreaker, Elantris, Tress of the Emerald Sea, Yumi and the Nightmare painter and so on
Only the Stormlight books are massive ones
You can finish the first Mistborn book in like 10-12 hours
@limber urchin recently read Stormlight from book 1 to book 5
he can second the recommendation
I’ll probably do that sometime during the summer
I saw the trilogy go for like 25$
The mistborn one
nice

mistborn hero of ages reread ||Preservation's death might honestly be my favorite part of the book behind the ending chapters||
||his interaction with elend, stopping him from giving up and trying to tell him what the mists are really doing, then right after that we get the epigraph explaining that this was preservation's last act before dying..
||
Andor || can’t believe how Mon Mothma went from being that one rebel leader to one of the most complex characters in the story and a genuine marvel of character writing ||
I believe today I will test out the first episode of The Boys at lunch.
I've seen that damn blond guy gif enough on here that I feel compelled.
oh boy
its awesome. in the top 5 superhero tv series all time for me
some seasons are better than others but ive at liked all 4 seasons
the boys doesn't even come close to the good ones at this point
its a mediocre show at best now
i got DD, Agents of shield, penguin, doom patrol, the boys in my top 5
what wpuld u rank higher? just curious
ive seen like 60-70% of superhero tv except the long cw/berlanti dc shows
the only series i saw that was super hero related was the first 2 seasons of Heroes in the mid 2000s. While the second season sucked, the first is still one of my favorite seasons of tv.
oh well I guess if you include the MCU, maybe I have seen other super hero shows. Forgot about the mcu lol. I guess I forgot just how much I loved Daredevil
D'Onofrio's portrayal of Kingpin might be one of my favorite villains in any media.
including animation:
batman the animated series, daredevil, penguin, x-men (including the new season), smallville, watchmen, doom patrol, justice league, justice league unlimited, peacemaker, swamp thing (unfortunately cancelled only after season 1 but its so fucking good), superman and lois, spectacular spider-man, legion, spider-man the animated series, x-men evolution
Harsh, I've gotten to see some of the original art from the batman series, it's so fucking cool
a buddy of mine worked on the show too
if animation included, JLU in my top 5
have you seen the storyboards for the opening sequence?
oof no
just backgrounds and other promotional material
I fucking wish i got to see the opening
all of the shows i mentioned are better than the boys, and i can include more in that list
my favorite dcau show and i love all thr shows in it
but surely the boys first season is worth a try. i have to see what all these damn gifs are about
wait, there's post i can post it here one sec buffy
oh wow superman and lois. I remember catching glimpses of that show when it aired. I think my grandmother enjoyed watching it so I would stumble on scenes from time to time
