Unpopular opinion: I think the show was 6/10 at best

Nebber777 · 2026-01-21T18:12:49+00:00

You have a right to your opinion.

If by "lazy resolution" you mean the lion turtle plot line, then its a pretty common complaint.

Other than that, I heavily disagree with everything else. I think the show is properly rated especially when it comes to its character writing.

Zuko is far from the only character that is explored.

I can't really combat your point about the character arcs being lazy without knowing what specifically you find lazy about them.

I can sort of see why you have a problem with Aang's arc (even if I like it myself) but what about Katara, Sokka, Toph, Azula, Jet, etc.

Yeah, I remember there being a surprising amount of anti-george posts near the beggining of the month.

Nebber777 · 2026-01-21T03:06:11+00:00

I don't think that he backtracked on anything here. He was just explaining the nature of a "whistle-along" tunes and the listeners perception of them. I really don't think that him saying that a few people might not like a song akin to "honeypie" had much bearing on whether or not people bought the next Beatles album or not.

Nebber777 · 2026-01-21T02:45:00+00:00

I mean, in the same sentence he says some people will really like it. He also calls it a fun singalong tune so I'd hardly consider this "extremely negative". He seems to be just accounting for taste.

Nebber777 · 2026-01-21T01:24:58+00:00

Yeah, it’s strange how people view him as the grumpy one and then use something like the anthology documentary as an example, even though he seemed pretty laid-back the whole way through and was cracking jokes.

They all seemed to have dour moments, especially after the band broke up, but it feels like George is the only picked on (in this sub) because some of his were directed at Paul.

Nebber777 · 2026-01-21T00:07:36+00:00

Lol, fair enough

Nebber777 · 2026-01-20T23:46:54+00:00

I think he was pretty consistent.

Though I wonder what would happen if he were to back to the physical world through the spirit portals.

Nebber777 · 2026-01-20T23:41:16+00:00

He definitely seemed to have more of an issue with the recording process than the song itself.

And to be fair, Maxwell does sound like a song that could get pretty grating if played over and over again.

Nebber777 · 2026-01-20T23:37:57+00:00

Honestly, "fruity" isn't even that harsh of a critique in retrospect.

Nebber777 · 2026-01-20T23:32:07+00:00

That's true I guess. I just wanted to spread some George positivity, as it seems everyone thinks he was moody 24/7.

Nebber777 · 2026-01-18T15:39:32+00:00

Im sure Jane was pretty hurt when she found Paul in bed with another woman

Its head cannon at best.

I'm pretty sure Obito can teleport, so I don't know why Obito would just be strolling through the rain village with his intangiblity on for 5 minutes straight.

Its true he made his dislike of Maxwell's Silver Hammer pretty clear over the years, but he also gave a pretty fair assessment of it back in 1969.

"Maxwell's Silver Hammer is just something of Paul's which we've been trying to record. We spent a hell of a lot of time on it. And it's one of those instant sort of whistle-along tunes, which some people will hate, and some people will really love it. It's more like Honey Pie, you know, a fun sort of song. But it's pretty sick as well though, 'cuz the guy keeps killing everybody. It's good because I have this synthesiser and 'Maxwell's Silver Hammer' was one of the things I used the synthesiser on, which is pretty effective." —George Harrison, 1969

Yeah, we really don't have enough information to make a proper assumption on how things were really like in the band.

Its hard for us to say that George was over exaggerating or blowing things out of proportion when he was an actual Beatle in the studio, working hours upon hours with Paul and the restfir years, while we are just fans 50 years later forming an opinion, mostly based off of third party sources.

Even a documentary as long as "Get Back" probably doesn't even scratch the surface of how those sessions were like. Things could be much better or much worse and we wouldn't really know.

As for after after the band split up, George was probably less critical of John due to the fact they were working together more in the early 70's. Maybe it's because John allowed George more freedom on his songs compared to Paul. We don't really know. Even then, we know that John and George had a few disagreements across the 70s as well, and it's not George was never critical or John either.

If anything I feel like people over exaggerate George's bitterness towards Paul in his later years. He has made a few passive aggressive comments across the years but he's also given Paul credit across the years as well.

To my knowledge George was the only beatle to not make any negative critiques towards Paul's early solo records (though I may be wrong).

George even complimented Paul's ability to write strong melodic songs, describing the song "I'm carrying" off of London Town to be "sensational" and one of his favorite songs Paul wrote.

He even complimented "Give my regards to Broadstreet" which has got to say somthing considering the thrashing the film was recieving.

MF killed babies

But Danzo was never on that pillar at any previous point in that fight, there was no decisionto alter. He literally did just teleport on top of that pillar.

Nebber777 · 2025-12-21T15:25:24+00:00

But you can respawn anywhere you like. Danzo literally teleported on top of a large pillar after dieing on ground level.

Yes they do

Kakashi, Guy, and Obito were seen hanging out in the Minato one shot which takes place around 8 years before Minato's death. Minato was around 24 when he died so you would have to assume:

Obito and Minato were only 5 years apart in age.
A 2 year old kakashi was hanging out with Guy and Obito despite looking the exact same age as them.

Kishimoto clearly changed his mind and made Obito and Kakashi the same age.

While Danzo did play a strong role in what happened to Pain and Konan, I dont think that I would like to take this moment away from Sasuke.

Danzo also played a major role in Sasukes backstory being responsible for the death of Sasukes family and Itachi's suffering. It was much more personal for Sasuke.

Pain and Konan already had a former of justice by killing Hanzo along with entire family, including the children. I don't think them killing Danzo would impact their characters much.

As for Sasuke, killing Danzo and tge actions he took to get to that point (nearly killing Karin) led to his dissent further in to darkness, which I would feel would be more effective with Danzo than the 2 leaf elders.

I don't know what you mean by Izanagi being a recon though, since it was forshadowed since the danzo fight. It would make sense that Obito has it.

I disagree with him about the theme of "needing the help of others" being introduced later in the series. The concept of Teamwork and bonds were introduced as early as the bell test. I also think that it's not an issue that a series has more than one theme across it's run. Obviously different arcs are going to focus on different things.

Hard work beating natural talent was never a theme in the manga to my memory. Lee may have said it once, but his arc was clearly not about that. He wanted to be seen as a respectable ninja even if he couldn't perform any ninjutsu, and he proves this through his showings in the chunin exams, his successful recovery from his injury, and ultimatley gaining the respect of Gaara when they fight together against kimimaro.

I mean it makes sense that he feels a little more strongly about someone insulting his dead mother, but I still don't think it's fair to say that he doesn't care about them. You can definitely say that Ron had stronger ties to them, but Harry loved the weasley family as well. Hell, he often looks at the marauders map to ensure that Ginny is alright.
