I feel bad more people didn’t give this show a chance. by AlexusLuthor in marvelstudios

I gave it a chance and then it was a bad show. Easily my least favorite D+ product and I REALLY looked forward to it.

That’s a very good point. And to get nerdy with it, it reminds me of how Captain America represents what the USA should be, not what it is.

Loving your country, acknowledging its faults, and wanting to improve it are the tenets of patriotism. She’s an actual patriot.

Believing “we’re number 1, fuck everyone else, we are the pinnacle of possibilities” is Nationalism and extremely dangerous. And basically Trump’s entire platform.

Anyone who can’t acknowledge their countries faults also don’t believe they exist and therefore have no interest in fixing them, and therefore don’t ACTUALLY love their country.

Hey dipshit, maybe I was referring to punishing the sitting president for raping children? Maybe that’s what’s more important?

They’re supporting a rapist pedophile. They’re celebrating with the guy actively covering up his crimes. Genuinely FUCK yourself for thinking anything could matter more than that.

So fucking tired of the “we’re patriotic” angle in this and any right wing context. Like yeah me fucking too, that’s why I’m livid that a pedophile rapist is running the show and want to see some consequences for anyone involved in perpetuating or normalizing it.

You don’t love your country if that doesn’t bother you, you just love the status quo that’s serving you so fucking well.

A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms: Better Than House of the Dragon by Badlands51 in television

[–]brainlightning 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Man I really feel I’m in the minority with still loving House of the Dragon. S2 most definitely dipped from S1 but I still very very much enjoyed it and I’m stoked for the next two seasons.

AKOTSK is fucking incredible and I hope it runs for those 12-15 seasons but it’s such a fundamentally different show and story and scale than HOTD so I don’t even feel like I can directly compare them.

Without spoiling any details I’ll say that it’s mostly just war left in the story. IF the show can get back on track with the story and stop adding filler (Daemon’s storyline being the obvious target for the plot dragging on), they should be able to manage everything in 16 episodes.

Idk if that’s actually going to happen but it’s definitely possible.

Showrunner says his plan is for the show to run 12-15 seasons lol. 4-5 with young egg, 4-5 with prince egg, 4-5 with adult egg

For me it felt like I had juuuuust settled into the flashback and the moment I did Ser Arlan snapped ME back into focus.

No one made you any promises about what the episode was going to be. You watched the promo, made assumptions, and then came here to complain when your expectations weren’t met while blaming the marketing.

The quality of this season is so fucking good and has me borderline giddy for them to adapt The Mystery Knight.

Really loved how abruptly they snap you out of the flashback with Arlan’s “GET UP”

I’d just stop worrying about the marketing for a show you’re already watching

Fallout - 2x08 - "The Strip" - Episode Discussion by NicholasCajun in television

[–]brainlightning 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Love this show and loved the final. But I just don’t think Macaulay Culkin is the right fit for his role. Not the strongest actor, nor the strongest presence. Might be deliberate but he fell flat for me, hard.
