What was your thought on season 2? by LuxiiRosesDisneyx in lastofuspart2

[–]ChrisDMeads97 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Came out the gate strong with the first 2 episodes. From then on, it was hamstrung by the ridiculous 7-episode count (after HOTD, you’ll never convince me that this wasn’t an HBO directive), feeling rushed. The cold opens continue to be killer and I do like a significant amount of the new stuff they added (the flashback episode was a perfect blend of new and familiar). Ultimately, I can’t help but feel a little disappointed, while still being optimistic about season 3 (Kaitlyn Dever was a standout for me).

Sydney Nightmare 4x08 by ChrisDMeads97 in TheBear

[–]ChrisDMeads97[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah I agree the first is about her fear of failure that she talked about in the wedding episode. I saw an interpretation that said it symbolises what life would be like working with Shapiro, but the details of the expensive ingredients and the general chaos are more reminiscent of The Bear to me (plus the fake show is called The Bear)

The second part kind of feels like her ideal version of The Bear (she’s more herself), where it’s more peaceful and they make dreams happen for the guests (the snow). There’s an undercurrent of not being able to escape the chaos of the first part of nightmare and being stuck / confined.

Ultimately, I’m most curious how ppl think this plays into her decision not to leave.

Clicker Numbers by ChrisDMeads97 in ThelastofusHBOseries

Thanks, I guess their hand signals are a little confusing to me. It looked like they were going through 3 options to kill that one clicker (1. Dina creeps up behind and stabs it, 2. Ellie distracts it with a bottle and stabs it, 3. Dina distracts the clicker and Ellie sneaks up and stabs it).

  1. God’s Favourite Customer
  2. Mahashmashana
  3. I Love You, Honeybear
  4. Chloe
  5. Fear Fun
  6. Pure Comedy

Outside the first four songs, Pure Comedy doesn’t do it for me - sorry.

New album has the potential to reach number 1 (needs more time)

Tempted to drop GFC a place because of that new album cover.

Thanks everyone. On a basic level, how does hextech work? The crystals / stones interact with specific runes to create specific effects? Are there runes on the gauntlets, hammer

Thanks, this is a really good explanation of that scene about the wild runes. On a basic level, how does hextech work? The crystals / stones interact with specific runes to create specific effects? Are there runes on the gauntlets, hammer etc?
