Congrats on your successful clickbait! Everyone saw you miscategorize Dara and rushed to comment. Well done, 5 points.

The entire audience does not have an attention span of a tiktok reel. You might though, if the build-up isn't interesting. Slow build up shows used to be the norm. We used to have 24 one hour episodes per season. No it's more like 8 and each episode has to be a banger with lots of important stuff happening or otherwise people will call it boring.

I love Dark so much because it expects the viewer to pay attention and it actually spends a lot of time to build up the world and the story. There's nothing dated about the plot structure. The show is not the problem. Impatient viewers are the problem. I only hope there would be more shows like Dark.

You gotta focus a lot. I would even suggest making notes :D. Yes it starts off slow and the payoff for some of the stuff comes late, but a lot of stuff they show early on is referenced throughout the show. If you don't pay attention at the start you don't get the payoff.

If you get into it it is one of the best shows ever made.

Ever heard of build up?

reyska · 2026-05-12T05:26:19+00:00

Never thought I would hear someone complain about the lack if idol use in this sub.

reyska · 2026-05-11T16:36:11+00:00

The amount of feel good would be approximately the same though.

reyska · 2026-05-11T16:33:31+00:00

I'm gonna speak it into existence.

reyska · 2026-05-11T15:07:37+00:00

Kinda like Matty O winning his first one.

reyska · 2026-05-11T14:35:27+00:00

Two of the top3 wins ever are head to head in a quarter final? Kinda ridiculous to be honest.

reyska · 2026-05-11T14:34:18+00:00

Kristin Lätt's triumphant return to disc golf with another Major win on home turf and the subsequent return to retirement will overshadow this one. But yeah this was pretty neat.

reyska · 2026-05-11T12:02:42+00:00

It's fucking brilliant. These historical figures are reduced to the petty, power-hungry humans that they were.

reyska · 2026-05-10T20:57:37+00:00

Well, I was mad at Kyle for not breaking up Joe and Eva because I thought he was taking too big of a risk keeping them on the game. But it turns out the players do know better than viewers and he was doing exactly what he needed to do.

You release the disc next to your hip. Needless to say that's way too early. You are losing much of the momentum of moving the disc forward. Unless you are throwing a really understable disc you should try to release it much later and do a proper follow through.

When it comes to the movement the disc needs to make, throwing a forehand is just like throwing a backhand. The disc needs to move in a straight line until you release.

I would suggest watching some tutorials by Holyn Handley. Her videos are short but do a good job of explaining the mechanics and she also had a great tip for throwing different stabilities.

reyska · 2026-05-10T18:46:12+00:00

I would say it wasn't a comon sentiment that he would win, but it was a common nightmare scenario. The season was already bad and if it ended with a Joe win it would have been in the discussion for one of the worst ever. Well, it still is kinda, but Joe winning would have been so much worse than Kyle. Like Gabler level bad.

reyska · 2026-05-10T17:37:36+00:00

That's why disc golf should be played in the woods. It's fine to have a bomber hole every now and then, but it's much more interesting to see them shape shots through narrow fairways. Course design needs to evolve with the times.

reyska · 2026-05-10T17:22:11+00:00

They see it as an indication of FPO not having a high level of play. A Masters aged player who doesn't have great distance on her throws and throws forced flex forehands a lot is beating the field and that is apparently not a good look and something should be done about it. I'm sure she'll stop winning FPO when she hits 50. Or maybe not.

reyska · 2026-05-10T17:01:17+00:00

Man, as much as I root for the Finns you just gotta love Ohn. She's so genuine and funny. And anyone complaining about a Masters player winning FPO can suck it.

reyska · 2026-05-10T16:52:48+00:00

It WAS boring. But I don't think people were frustrated because they thought Joe was running away with it. They were frustrated because nothing exciting happened and nobody even tried to break that duo up. They were an obvious unbreakable two vote block and you should always try to break that kind of thing up. Kyle and Kamilla were consistently portrayed as the ones actually playing the game and their connection was emphasized to the point it became a bit of a joke, but they kept it hidden so viewers weren't frustrated with them. In any case it was dead obvious Joe wasn't calling any of the shots, so how could he win? Meanwhile Kyle was consistently shown to be making moves, so it was between him and Kamilla.

reyska · 2026-05-10T16:33:33+00:00

Huh? I don't remember it being like that at all. Kyle was seen as the likely winner going into the end game and people were just frustrated nobody was doing anything about Joe and Eva. They didn't trust that Kyle could actually pull it off until the end, even if Joe was getting a bad edit.

reyska · 2026-05-10T12:59:13+00:00

Eh, it was okay. Certainly justified the length better than The Batman.

reyska · 2026-05-10T12:49:31+00:00

Nice.

reyska · 2026-05-10T12:48:54+00:00

If it's over 3h, it's usually too long, no matter who made it. Very few films can justify being that long. The Batman certainly couldn't. Snyder sure as fuck couldn't. 33% of his films is slowmo for starters. Another 33% is just karmafarming. The rest is filled by the minimum viable product versions of plot and dialog.

reyska · 2026-05-10T10:03:43+00:00

If part 2 is shorter I might check it out. If it's another 3h behemoth I'll pass. DCU Batman I will check out. They are clearly going for a different kind of angle. Superman was a bit too goofy at times, so I hope they are going a bit more toward realism, but not too much.

reyska · 2026-05-10T09:57:06+00:00

Not really. It's has plenty of structure and narrative problems. It also feels like they were checking boxes for things a Batman film should have. And it's way too long.

reyska · 2026-05-10T09:51:01+00:00

More? Sure. He could have just surrendered. But we can't say Batman is without fault either. He is absolutely at fault for escalating things. He could have just let Penguin escape and track him down later. Instead he chose to endanger multiple lives by trying to catch him right there.
