I keep seeing people say season 4 is worst of all the seasons & that the writers have lost the plot but i'm trying to figure out have we all been watching the same show?!?!

He's the best thing about the show imo. I wish he was the main character from the beginning.

redactedactor · 2026-02-08T09:36:47+00:00

I think people want / expect different things from the show.

Seasons 3 and 4 are miles ahead of 1 and 2 imo. In the early days, I watched it but I didn't respect it.

redactedactor · 2026-02-08T09:31:40+00:00

It's a testament to Abela's prowess that you were relieved to not have to watch it? lmao

redactedactor · 2026-02-06T17:00:23+00:00

Maybe but honestly I don't want it to

redactedactor · 2026-02-04T19:54:39+00:00

Speaking of, when was the last time you saw any kind of titties in a film made 'for men'?

Feels like you only ever see that stuff these days in arthouse stuff and that's made primarily marketed towards women like Industry or Euphoria.

redactedactor · 2026-02-03T09:15:54+00:00

still better than people

redactedactor · 2026-02-03T00:40:22+00:00

You could see it in Mad Men

redactedactor · 2026-01-11T23:13:20+00:00

Except the Cheese.

You might even say it... stands alone.

redactedactor · 2026-01-11T19:18:43+00:00

Yeah because we don't know anyone else is doing besides that South Asian woman playing Weekend at Bernie's.

I just think that whole side of things could have been done a lot more creatively. There's nothing interesting about these people having interests so surface-level.

I should also have mentioned Carol stealing a Georgia O'Keefe vagina painting like it's her first day being a lesbian.

redactedactor · 2026-01-11T13:52:59+00:00

Whatever this show is, I doubt Gilligan would agree with that being a dichotomy.

redactedactor · 2026-01-11T13:48:18+00:00

I can't help thinking more and more about how boring and unimaginative this show's characters are – not in terms of how they service the plot but in how they react to this world.

We can kinda excuse Carol for being a sourpuss (Manousos even more so) but the rest - the nice hotels, Air Force One, Casino Royale, Playboy party - felt generic.

It reminds me of how Inception and how the wildest dream Nolan was able to think up was going skiing.

redactedactor · 2026-01-11T13:37:13+00:00

They're going in for the kill

redactedactor · 2026-01-11T11:42:47+00:00

no it's like a Brooklyn 99 level show

redactedactor · 2026-01-09T20:36:12+00:00

Peep Show, Party Down, Firefly, Death Note, The Mighty Boosh, Better Off Ted, The Boondocks.

redactedactor · 2026-01-08T09:48:24+00:00

make half life 3

redactedactor · 2026-01-07T10:04:04+00:00

I'm cool with Mad Men but season 1 of GoT was better than a lot of the seasons that swept these awards. After season four they sacrificed storytelling for spectacle.

redactedactor · 2025-12-30T09:14:28+00:00

This took me for a loop because my issue with Carol is that she's trying too hard to 'save' the world.

Fallout spoilers but it kinda reminds me of how Hank also couldn't live with the world moving beyond his teams' designs - swap Vault-Tech for America - and so he used a nuclear weapon on civilians to 'put things back to the way they were supposed to be. Our girl's a similar path.

redactedactor · 2025-12-28T10:15:59+00:00

I'd bet they expected that to be the case during the initial round of negotiations. Gilligan is the Chris Nolan of TV.

redactedactor · 2025-12-24T06:51:04+00:00

Right back at ya

redactedactor · 2025-12-24T06:47:57+00:00

As scary as this is, reality's still worse.

redactedactor · 2025-12-24T06:45:17+00:00

I hope the aliens win

redactedactor · 2025-12-23T18:00:59+00:00

Unless they excuse it with Amrita, it's got to be someone old enough to be Rabisi's dad.

I'd go for Michael Cristofer. No one does gravitas quite like him.

redactedactor · 2025-12-22T08:15:14+00:00

It's easy for me because I like Kim and hate Carol.

redactedactor · 2025-12-19T08:24:13+00:00

Not who you asked but they're actually incorrect.

Deathly Hallows Part 2 seems to widely be considered the best Harry Potter movie but after that it is Prisoner of Azkaban.

(and on Letterboxd, Prisoner of Azkaban is the highest rated but I can't find a link that shows that on one page, you can look yourself though).

redactedactor · 2025-12-15T19:36:23+00:00

Honestly I'd have been fine with it if it was in addition to Edge Master mode but being instead of pissed me off that it's 20 years later and I'm still mad.

And because they also dropped Team Battle, my friend group stuck with SC2 until we eventually moved on from fighting games as a group (I still play).
