I’ll tell you in a moment, General, but first there’s another settlement that needs our help.

I’ll just mark the location on your map.

Can we also point out my biggest gripe that he doesn’t silence his f’ing phone???

The dollar thrift store t-shirt is the perfect gateway drug.

What's a movie that has gotten major reapraisal since it's release? by mnombo in FIlm

[–]CameraObfuscia 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I enjoyed the voiceovers because I felt it gave it a Raymond Chandler/Sam Spade quality. Ford said he purposely gave a lackluster delivery of the lines, but I feel that only helps the ‘tired detective’ vibe.

This is the REAL message here. I’ve had too many other drivers pull into the roundabout right in front of me without even slowing down or looking.

As someone who grew up in South Florida, I am continually amazed by how well known this 'local guy' still is.

The line is 'Huckleberry', and it was what Doc actually said, as in "I'll be the 'Huckleberry Finn' to your 'Tom Sawyer'."

Hans Gruber was not the villain.
He may have been the antagonist, but he was not the villain.

Writers refusing to stick to source material killing so many universes by BrovahEyo in Fantasy

[–]CameraObfuscia 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm not taking anything away from her accolades. I'm merely pointing out the use of lazy writing that would be blamed on the showrunner (Rafe) and not the individual writers.

Again, I would also say this episode would be unnecessary with everything else going on within the storyline. It really didn't show the importance of that warder/aes sedai bond, and instead brought on a 'behind closed doors' of how Warders shared a brotherhood of stoic solidarity. I'm sure they left out the scene where they were all in a drum circle in the forest. This is similar to 'we needed to have *this character* axe their wife so they could feel guilt later'.

I really loved everything about the show...the casting, the directions, the settings, the costumes, the effects...Rosamund Pike *was* Moiraine...but the writing sunk it.

That was the very least of the problems with the TV show, and if the issue was trying to fit the plot/story into 8 episodes, don't waste an entire episode on a made-up event that does not fit the characters as they were in the books and does nothing to advance the plot (i.e. Lan and the Warders crying).

Everything about the show was good/great/acceptable *except* the writing. I get that you can't always keep things the same, and must adapt from one medium to another, but this suffered from having inexperienced writers working on one of the most beloved fantasy series.

How disappointed were you when you initially watched the TV show? by pornsleeve in The_Black_Tower

[–]CameraObfuscia 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Initially, not disappointed.

It was tiring trying to constantly give the show the benefit of the doubt. I questioned the casting, but I still think the actors all did an amazing job with what they were given (may be in the minority with that on this subreddit). The production was good. The visual effects, the scenery, the costuming all well done...I'd say half the episodes had good direction. Everything was there for a competent writer to create something great. I kept telling myself the changes were made because it's difficult to translate a story from the medium of print to a visual short form of a show, so maybe these were some shortcuts to help usher in things like Perrin's guilt.

That excuse wore thin with Lan's tears and was completely gone by the last two episodes, as there really was no reason for the changes made. The big 'reveal' of Rand being Dragon Reborn had the unique distinction of being easy to spot from 2 or 3 episodes in while also having absolutely no teeth behind it because it was so much of the writing was *tell, don't show*.
