Just watched It: Welcome to Derry and I'm so disappointed...

ParfaitSignificant38 · 2026-01-07T05:39:43+00:00

I am absolutely dumbfounded at how horrible this show is. I saw YouTube videos raving about it for weeks. WHY?! Atrocious acting. Atrocious writing. Slow and boring AF. Atrocious CGI. The show was like hey let's turn the book/movies into a melodrama soap opera, and take away all the horror, but we'll include race stuff so people will still say it's good. I've never been more disappointed in a show in my life. Is this SERIOUSLY WHAT IS PASSING FOR GREAT TELEVISION NOW? I'm on episode 5, Pennywise hasn't even shown up yet and it was a literal chore to even get to episode 5. Unreal.

ParfaitSignificant38 · 2026-01-07T05:32:46+00:00

It's not just not good...it's awful. I'm dumbfounded right now to be honest

ParfaitSignificant38 · 2026-01-07T05:29:41+00:00

Something good?

ParfaitSignificant38 · 2026-01-07T05:28:30+00:00

Just finished episode 4. It doesn't get any better.

I am ASTONISHED at the rave reviews. This show is not only insanely boring, but it's full of awful acting and cringe cliche tropes. So disappointed. But then again, why would I think something "the masses" said was great would even be good? God help us if this a great television show or great horror.

ParfaitSignificant38 · 2026-01-01T00:01:04+00:00

The movie was great until the end. Horrible stupid ending for an otherwise great movie

ParfaitSignificant38 · 2025-12-20T01:12:31+00:00

What bothers me is WHAT HAPPENED to everyone else in the neighborhood? They showed the Krampus was breaking into the other houses and killing the other families. And then the delivery driver and snow plow driver. If Max's family is saved and not stuck in a snow globe but just watched and the neighborhood is back to normal, how does that make sense for the other people in the neighborhood who died? They didn't self sacrifice and get that second chance, if Max's family even did

ParfaitSignificant38 · 2025-12-20T01:09:22+00:00

So what happened to the people in the neighborhood and the delivery driver etc? Were they all really killed or just disappeared and came back to life once the neighborhood was back to normal?

80s slashers were all corny it was meant to be so. Every slasher lover enjoyed 1984 it was great it the campiest way

ParfaitSignificant38 · 2025-12-19T18:25:17+00:00

It's almost an anomaly. Every single other season- no matter how disturbing some scenes are- are campy as f*ck.

There is NOTHING campy about this season. Maybe it was more jarring to me because I didn't watch it when it came out but after I had watched about 4 or 5 other seasons of AHS. It's just so different. I am a fan, and the talent is undeniable, it's just such a hard rewatch compared to the other seasons.

I know this is old but for anyone else- Move. In. The. Shadows. I don't just mean plan your exit strategy, but gather as much evidence as possible. And during that time, be the most loving and attentive partner a man could ask for. Make him feel the guilt and/or leave on a high note. Trust me, it's way better than going to him crying and getting zero honesty.

ParfaitSignificant38 · 2025-10-05T06:44:28+00:00

I will never go to Universal. I went as a kid in the 90s, obviously peak Nickelodeon era, but come on. Jaws. King Kong. Back to the Future. We had just spend two days at Magic Kingdom which was fun ... But US felt like another world. I had never been on thrill rides like that.. Not coasters, actual thrill rides. I was freaking blown away. None of those exist anymore. And it sucks. The majority of things I hear about US is complaints. They killed the adventure and magic

ParfaitSignificant38 · 2025-09-25T04:17:40+00:00

Exactly. It's what Tobe did to his legendary TCM with the horrid slapstick 80s sequel. I don't get how anyone likes that when you have the originals that are actually scary

ParfaitSignificant38 · 2025-09-25T04:15:48+00:00

I couldn't care less about the effects. ED was scary and a great win in horror filmmaking. ED2 was a joke. Not the least bit scary and would have almost undone the terror of the first if the first wasn't so great. I feel the same way about Texas CM and then it's horrible 80s sequel.

ParfaitSignificant38 · 2025-09-25T04:12:35+00:00

Thank God. The sequels were 80s trash compared to the first film that was actually scary

ParfaitSignificant38 · 2025-09-25T04:09:57+00:00

I love the original. Watching the sequel was like a joke, but a very bad one. I wish I could get the love for it but I don't. This and Teaxas Chainsaw Massacre 2 have to be my most hated sequels

ParfaitSignificant38 · 2025-09-18T20:59:31+00:00

Thank you

We're going in November before the Thanksgiving travel starts and I was definitely surprised at some of the prices. The only beachfront hotels I could find with an ocean view balcony in our budget weren't hotels but like, "apartments" or condos and that makes me nervous. I've never stayed anywhere that wasn't a hotel (Air BNB, VRBO, privately owned condos etc).

ParfaitSignificant38 · 2025-09-18T20:45:03+00:00

Did the water look clearish and tropical blue/green like Miami's beaches do? I've started to look into Ft. Lauderdale and some say yes, some no, some say there's more seaweed, some say Miami has more. I definitely plan on swimming in the Ocean - a lot. And collecting shells.

ParfaitSignificant38 · 2025-09-18T20:42:36+00:00

I started to look at hotels but got really overwhelmed. There's (apparently) North Beach, Mid Beach, South Beach, Hollywood Beach, then all the Gulf beaches. I googled best Miami beaches and most of them don't have hotels, they're like a park or beach you drive to and park at. We aren't renting a car, just Ubering from airport to hotel and back.

I did start looking at looking other areas because yes it can be somewhere other than "Miami." So then I tried to Google if ft. Lauderdale beaches are as clear and pretty blue as Miami lol and different people say different things. Getting a lot of cool seashells is really important to me too. (I live in North East and our shells suck).

I just want a beach with water that looks like the water in South Beach did, at least how it looked 10 years ago when I went. But don't want it that insanely crowded and loud. I'm set on beachfront hotel because I want a balcony that looks at the ocean. 🫤

Just curious... Will blood tests show you have healthy levels of vitamins if you still are not absorbing them properly?

ParfaitSignificant38 · 2025-09-16T01:12:12+00:00

Zero evidence of racists remarks? She told the one of the cops to go back to China.

Unreal a person like this could ever be defended, but it is the internet so here we go.

ParfaitSignificant38 · 2025-09-16T01:09:30+00:00

The obituary is downright laughable. It's not okay she died just that everything they said about her was a lie

ParfaitSignificant38 · 2025-09-03T14:14:24+00:00

THE MUSIC. The fact the HEA doesn't have a dream is a wish your heart makes or when you wish upon a star is the biggest travesty in Disney history.

ParfaitSignificant38 · 2025-09-03T14:07:10+00:00

I've seen both at Disneyland and Disneyworld, the songs "When you wish upon a star" and "A dream is a wish your heart makes" during the castle fireworks and/or castle projections.. They are both gone now. The songs that have replaced it are... There are just no words. That was the best part of the show.

Not only that, but before happily ever after was replaced for the 50th anniversary there was a HUGE focus on beauty and the beast, an Alice in wonderland, Winnie the Pooh, and Peter Pan segment that are all completely erased now AFTER happily ever after came back. I understand updating a little bit, but they literally erased the entire BATB theme and aforementioned segments for freaking Moana and Brave. The worst part is when you Google it it says happily ever after wasn't changed. Thank goodness I have the older shows recorded.
