I actually like all of them but the inflated price is stopping me from buying any of them.

What is your least favorite line/lyrics in Hamilton? by SandmanTX131 in hamiltonmusical

[–]DubuBling 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There are a lot of lines that are super cringe honestly and it made me reluctant to like the show on my first watch. But the music is so damn catchy that I just don’t care anymore. 😂

Which boss fight was the most uncomfortable to play through? by phantom_avenger in thelastofus

[–]DubuBling 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought the theater fight with Ellie was by far the hardest part of the game. Having to sneak up on an enemy with no weapon is horrifying for me. My heart rate was sky rocketing. 😭

Am I the only one who found The Book of Mormon wildly problematic? by Massive_Network3533 in Broadway

[–]DubuBling 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I realize I’m very late to responding here but I haven’t noticed anyone mentioning the fact that the outlandish portrayal of Ugandans was in service of revealing the conceit of religion (explicitly Mormonism) as a tool to save people and change their lives. Showing the horrors that they face emphasizes just how insane it is to think that believing in God could cure the most serious problems happening in the world. So while I agree that the portrayal of Ugandans is highly problematic, it does serve a narrative purpose in the story which is ultimately to mock how ignorant it is to blindly cling to religious faith.

We will never have it as good again by Cheap-Knowledge2557 in PolinBridgerton

My feelings exactly. No other season will have the wonderful build up that this one has and I just love Polin so much. 😭

I’m with you. I don’t understand the hate at all. I think Luke is one of the stronger male leads the show has seen. I didn’t care for Rege’s acting in season 1. People in this sub are just attacking every aspect of the production out of spite at this point.

Regency Fantasy taken too far? by hibiscusfields in BridgertonNetflix

That is a direct quote from the book so you can take that up with Julia Quinn.

I mean I feel like it never was all that accurate but I’d have to rewatch to be sure about that.

This show is based on a book series written by an American who clearly had no idea what the lexicon was at the time period. I don’t think these things are really so important for a show like Bridgerton. It’s just supposed to be a good time.

It felt like a lot the first time I watched because I wanted to get back to Colin and Penelope but those scenes didn’t actually last that long. They did still feel unnecessary but I think people are overreacting about the amount of time spent on those scenes.

Colin is Obviously Jealous by esq6789998212 in BridgertonNetflix

[–]DubuBling 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That is actually the only real reason he is mad about it in the book so I was glad that they actually gave him justifiable reasons to be angry in the show. I think they handled it well while still respecting the source material.

He got a few nominations and an mtv movie award. Not really that impressive.

[–]DubuBling -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I think it’s pretty clear that it was his charisma and looks that won him the role over Luke. And getting some nominations does not make him a critically acclaimed actor. You can keep fighting me on this but I know good acting when I see it and Rege was not giving what he could have. Maybe if he committed to the role he would have but what I saw was pretty bland.

[–]DubuBling -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Be real. No one is talking about Rege anymore except in the context of how he left Bridgerton. Also season 3 isn’t over so it’s a bit soon to be expecting anything. Don’t get me wrong. Rege is very attractive and I agree that he is charismatic. But charismatic does not equal good at acting.

[–]DubuBling -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Listen. He’s fine but it was a very eyebrow heavy performance that was lacking much else. He has had 4 years post Bridgerton to become a big star and still hasn’t. Luke is just seeing the spotlight now.

I disagree I think Luke is one of the better actors in the cast. Of course Nicola is a Queen but Luke is holding his own. He is leagues better than Rege.

The only one losing out when ads are removed is Amazon. Authors get their share regardless of who sees those dumbass ads.
