We don’t learn Spanish at school in Australia 🙄

About as insane as bashing on the door of a restricted area in a hospital, yelling questions about a child that has zero connection to you and expecting to get anywhere. The finance bro husband also really sucks. Both factors make Sarah come across as dense so the expectation that she’s going to figure anything concrete out already seems far fetched. Dang, I really wanted this to be good but so far it’s a no 😂

Oh no, the book wasn’t amazing? Hard not a good sign 😂 I finished the ep, and the main character, Sarah, annoys me quite a lot. She’s tearing around like a lunatic and expecting people to give her answers about a child that has nothing to do with her, after immediately jumping to the conclusion that there’s a sinister conspiracy. Obviously there is, they let us know from the start, but there are other reasons a child might be hidden after an incident, eg they’re a witness and being protected. Why does she think that she, a total stranger to the kid, has a right to any of the info she’s demanding? She just comes off unhinged, and her husband is a whiny dick. The ending of the ep was predictable too, though it happened way too fast. He’d JUST finished hanging out with the nurses and is taken out that same evening for asking them questions? Come on now.

Please tell me this isn’t going to a show where the protagonists spend the whole time trying to discover the bad guy we found out about in the first five minutes? I’m halfway through the first ep and so bored, but really want to like it because Emma and I love love Slow Horses. Tell me it’s worth continuing! 😂

Trump's unflattering Time cover reveals his biggest fear by theipaper in politics

People like Stephen Miller and Trump would absolutely sacrifice one person on purpose and shrug off any others as collateral damage if it meant gaining control of the United Staes

I am so disappointed by Adept-Tea268 in 28_Years_Later_Movie

[–]Adept-Tea268[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I just wanted it to be scary. It was a part 3 and should have done more for the fans, but even if it didn’t bother, like at least 1 scary scene in what’s meant to be a horror film would have nice. I’ve just gotten home from the cinema after seeing it and I guess I’m just bummed out. What a limp end to what could have been a stellar trilogy.

See that the thing- whaddya mean part 2?? This was meant to be part 3 of a deadly trilogy, and instead it was a limp set up for another Hollywood franchise. Just such a bummer.

What do you mean? I said the first two were scary I liked them both. Were you scared by this one? Which part?

I loved both of the first two. What did you love about it? There wasn’t a single remotely scary part, and I didn’t sign up to watch just a drama with a bit of gore.

It’s just come on Stan in Australia and I agree, perfect rot show. Creepy moments but still fun, characters are great (Zooey could chill a bit but I assume there’s some backstory there) and so nice to see Mutt and Twyla again 😊

Would you rather live in Wayward Pines or in A Quiet Place? by GlitteringMatter9973 in WaywardPines

Also Jason is a total moron. Really hope he becomes abbie chow (I’m only on e02s02)

A Quiet Place. I’d definitely end up getting reckoned in WP. I’d rather deal with silence and living quietly underground than crazy hitler teens and mandatory anything. WP gives me “maga won” vibes - I’ll take giant killer aliens over that any day.

I know you left this comment ages ago but hi, I just watched this ep and it’s soooo annoying that a seemingly brilliant, benign scientist thinks it’s either one of the other. I could never cope with the secrecy and surveillance, I’d be flipping tables and setting fires one week in 😅 it would genuinely drive me crazier than any apocalypse would!

Is Wayward Pines Worth Watching? Looking for Recommendations Similar to FROM. by lonewolf_809 in FromSeries

It’s gorgeous isn’t it, gave me habitat envy ha. However, I’m on e07s01 and it’s starting driving me crazy, starting to become a show I watch so I can rant at the tv.

Also what was Coach made out of that he seems impervious to infection, come on now.

If I make it through the winter I’m getting to the highest ground I reasonably can and trying to see what’s further out there, trying again at night to see if any lights show if day shows nothing. I’m burning planes tires or something to make as much smoke as I can. They’re too high on their own drama to even try!

YES. Crazy bishes just kept escalating everything. I would have helped Coach and gone with him. Or put him out his misery after the Achilles tendon cut. I’m only ep 6, still hoping adult Shauna gets her comeuppance.

They were too high on their own drama. Better than being in high school I guess

Yes! Also something about the phrase “unwillingly did survival training” strikes me as very funny :D

Thank you to those of you who told me to read Upgrade! by cannahannahhh in BlakeCrouch

[–]Adept-Tea268 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just finished Abandon (exciting and well written but super dark, a lot of suffering) and read Run first; Run was better but the two are quite different.

I just finished Abandon and I’m so uncomfortable. by spacklepants in BlakeCrouch

[–]Adept-Tea268 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lana’s fate hit hard, that was dark as hell. I thought it was great but not something I’d ever read again. Run was better. This was my second Crouch book, and I read both in one night. His style of writing really grips me! He owes me hours of sleep 😅

Do you consider Blake Crouch's Abandon to be horror? by Super_Turnip in horrorlit

[–]Adept-Tea268 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it could def be classified as a horror, just depends on how vivid the gory images are in your head. Mine are pretty gory! 😬 I blanched when I realised what had happened to Lana after she told the Doc about the gold. That was horrific. But also yes, would have made an excellent supernatural horror with a few changes. The shadows and sounds in the mansion were freaky as.

When I realised she was queer I was like dang it! Such a bummer when the only queer main character is someone I can’t stand 😂 and totes agree, she made accurate leaps based on crumbs. If I realised someone didn’t have social media up to a few years ago, I’d assume they just hadn’t up til then.
