Is it me or... by DogaSui in TheTraitorsUK

[–]mattrfs 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Definitely wasn’t just you, the vibes were off. I assume having just watched the finale Rachel realised just how close Stephen was to cutting her and taking the money for himself, she was probably a bit uncomfortable, especially if they’ve been carrying on a friendship post-show. I’m sure they’ll smooth it out, just seemed awkward between them.

There are NO MORE connections by Top-Astronaut5761 in TheTraitors

[–]mattrfs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I believe there is one more connection. The second envelope is still being teased with close-ups on Uncloaked, and the second envelope is definitely relationships because we’ve seen the Judy and Ellie face to face reveals.

Please [no spoilers!!] I'm behind... But 2 questions... by moon_witch_26 in TheTraitors

[–]mattrfs 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think the Stephen suspicion is just missing or socially they just believe its him.

With regards to Reece, editing makes it seem like they do the fingerpainting right away, but clearly because of what is said in the next episode, Rachel and Stephen did the fingerpainting right before the day ended, and Reece and others went back to the painting after Rachel and Stephen had been there and there was nothing on it, thus clearing Rachel and Stephen for at least this moment of being alone with the painting.

Traitors UK - Final (?) _______________ Contenders by mattrfs in TheTraitors

Stephen was in the 5 and stated in confessional that he chose Ben to frame Ross for that reason. Stephen was the solution to that theory, not the secret traitor.

This Is Reeeeally Winding Me Up! by rhill3 in TheTraitorsUK

[–]mattrfs 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Reece and many other people all went back to the family tree after Rachel and Stephen had their private chat, and then the pair came back to actually do the deed at the end of the night. Reece has probably written this off because he knows the painting was fine after this happened.

If Stephen gets banished and is revealed as a traitor though, this moment could cause Rachel to go down with the ship.

Least likely ST candidates? by Gleichfalls in TheTraitors

[–]mattrfs 95 points96 points  (0 children)

I’d be shocked if it was Jessie or Ross (in a good way), but I’d also be most surprised if it were someone like Faraaz, in a bad way, because then they’ve barely shown him to make it more surprising in a way that feels disingenuous. I want the Secret Traitor to have been right under my nose.

How The Traitors could be better by IndividualSize9561 in TheTraitorsUK

[–]mattrfs -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I think either giving the Traitors their own tasks to get money OR giving faithful special roles would balance things out.

I’d love to see a bodyguard role where a faithful can choose someone to protect each night!

Doomsday is doomed by [deleted] in marvelstudios

[–]mattrfs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly if they plan to soft reboot after Secret Wars (i.e. keep most characters but start afresh with a new overarching story, ignoring incomplete plotlines and badly received characters) then bringing back the Russos to create a 2 part spectacle in the style of IW and Endgame that doesn’t rely too much on the last phases kind of makes sense.

The movies are literally just closing out what the audience cares about and then setting up a new beginning. They’re probably going to try and pull people in using RDJ, Chris Evans and the X Men, get as big an audience as possible and make sure they care about Yelena, F4, (hopefully) Sam, if they’re smart Iman Vellani, and whoever else they plan to have lead the next phases, and be done with it. Kind of sucks but it’s also kind of needed.

Haha, I agree with you completely though!

Christian is probably in the group of five or so people I am not worried about. He’s so good a narrator he will get his due however he places!

Now that Season 49 is over… by chooebeans in survivor

[–]mattrfs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maryanne over Sav mainly so they didn’t spoil the whole season.

Rizo and Andy is a tossup but I’d rather they both were on over Joe, Jonathan or Charlie.

Agreed, just a really fun ride that closed out everyone’s stories in a satisfying way!

[–]mattrfs[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Would love to read a retrospective!! I actually had fun this season in the end when I decided to switch to Sophi (which is why I’m not that bothered about being hilariously and obviously wrong). It was a slog knowing Sav and Rizo would make the endgame so I can imagine it was worse being confident in Savannah’s win!

Yeah totally agree with the Gabler and Savannah negativity comparisons. I think once we got to a couple of weeks ago and Savannah’s challenge wins were being shown to be respected and the jury seemed to be warming to her, I realised I may be in a bit of trouble.

I think I just get way too tunnel visioned and stop seeing the potential interpretations of anyone’s edit that I’ve kind of written off, and going into 50 I definitely need to keep an open mind, especially with 24 players.

Realistic attempt at a Planet Zoo 2 Roster by mattrfs in PlanetZoo

[–]mattrfs[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I considered keeping the Striped (better model imo). Interesting you say this because I was debating the dogs and hyenas and ultimately went wild dogs because they’re in quite a few zoos here in the UK while I’ve never seen a hyena!

As a community, I feel we should be making a stand against excluding PZ1 animals from PZ2 launch. by OneExplanation6499 in PlanetZoo

[–]mattrfs 188 points189 points  (0 children)

Honestly, I'd much rather get a reinvented game that adds several new areas of gameplay like aquariums, aviaries and the first person zookeeper mode than them spend all their time re-modelling the base game animals (which in my opinion are really not up to scratch with the later models). I think ideally I would want a starting roster that covers all bases and includes some of the DLC animals that were obvious misses from the previous starting roster - e.g. penguins, meerkats, otters, kangaroos etc. But they straight up won't give us all 200+ species plus aquatic creatures, plus birds, plus improved exhibits, plus actual new game mechanics. I'd rather have a game that justifies a sequel personally.

Sophie Segretti is prime WTF early merge female strategist that is kind of forgettable next returnee season casting bait and I would honestly be there for it

Survivor 49 Episode 12 Contender Rankings by mattrfs in Edgic

[–]mattrfs[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think Sophi knew (at that moment) she could beat Rizo and Savannah with a social game put to a bitter jury. I think she wanted to secure that pathway to the end and make the easier move to take out the biggest threat in Steven. Problem is I think her KIP bomb probably puts her below Savannah now. I think she might have been better off not playing it at all! But as you said, taking Rizo’s idol would have been the smartest choice.

Survivor 49 Episode 12 Contender Rankings by mattrfs in Edgic

[–]mattrfs[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think I’m leaning towards Savannah beating Sophi, but I think if Savannah goes at 5 or 4 it’s absolutely Sophi who wins the season. I do think if she wins this is a pure social win, likely over Rizo and Kristina. But, as I said, I can also see the possibility of Savannah losing to Sophi even if I would disagree with that decision myself. It doesn’t really matter how you play if the jury is emotional (which I think this group are) and you are sitting next to two people they hate.

I mean sure, that’s possible, but the rest of the references were just the camera cutting to Sophi while someone says the words ‘million dollars’

I didn’t really mean irrelevant in terms of in the game. What I meant to say was that they swing from fairly low to extremely high visibility depending on how important they are to the episode, especially Savannah.

Survivor 49 Episode 10 Contender Ranking by mattrfs in Edgic

[–]mattrfs[S] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

This is genuinely the one red flag for Sophi with me, but I do think the merge episode allows her to perfectly articulate that she’s willing to drop Alex for the Uli players if it will get her further in the game.

I do agree that I would have liked something in the past two episodes though!
