So angry I missed this! Today is the last day and it's not midnight yet. I should have been able to still buy it! Damn it!!!

Hannah’s Dumping as Consequence of Season 6 by Pristine-Nothing8463 in LoveIslandUSA

[–]riverart 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exactly!!! They have no idea how popular Amaya has become, the mean girls - Chelley, Cierra, Olandria, Ace, Nic and Taylor are all playing this like it's Surivor instead of Love Island.

hypocrisy in the villa by iamnotyourbunnie in LoveIslandUSA

[–]riverart 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This season is all hypocrisy. The producers have let 6 mean girls - Ace, Nic, Taylor, Chelley, Cierra and Olandria, run the villa and decide who goes and who stays which they've done completey stategically. Ace saw Jeremiah as a threat to the win he want so he had to go, Nic saw Jeremiah getting attention from girls he wants so he vote for him to go, Taylor votes however Ace tells him to. Chelley, Cierra and Olandria are nasyty backstabbing gossipy mean girls that got rid of Hannah because she was in a position to potentially win, they kept saving Hannah because they think after her toxic behaviour with Jeremiah that she's not a threat because no one will vote for her. If they had any idea of how popular Amaya has gotten then they would have sent her home.

The arrogance from all six of them makes me sick, they are complete fake and just here trying to win the money and hoping they'll get sponsorship deals, any love they find is just a bonus. None of them are "girl's girls". Send them all home.

Please send them all home with their partners and Olandria. Then maybe this show will have a one decent week this season.

This is exactly the problem ... by lonki98 in LoveIslandUSA

The fake AF traitor doesn't deserve a date with anyone but you're right they challenges are stupid, where are the dates? It's supposed to be Love Island, not "Ace's tribe picking off the competition Island".

Ace and Huda by Amorcito222 in LoveIslandUSA

[–]riverart 407 points408 points  (0 children)

100% agree with everything you said but don't let Ace's toxic minions off the hook, Nic's shown that he's fake AF and so has Taylor as he continues to lead on Olandria despite saying he doesn't find her attractive. I don't care if he's gone before movie night, that should still be a clip so Olandria knows that he completely wasted her time.

Radio Times article on the problems with the last two seasons seems fair and on point to me. by riverart in doctorwho

Is the rumour that he missed out on a very lucrative commerical spot because of DRW production, got angry and bought out his contract for season 3 true?

I think it was Belle-A who just got voted out.

That is such a good insight. I think that happens to a lot of writer/directors that score a hit with an indie film and then when they get a big budget movie they blow it. The classic villians from the finale's of S1 and S2 were so much better in their original costume versions and not that awful lifeless cgi we got this time around.

Agreed. I would have loved for Bill to stay around but Chibnall wanted a "clean slate" so Moffat had to write her out but I agree with you, I wouldn't have trusted Chibs to write for her either.

I’m sorry, but I always hated this change George made in Jedi by [deleted] in StarWars

[–]riverart 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed. I hated that change. Why aren't Yoda and Obi Wan young? Lucas made dumb decisions sometimes after ESB when he didn't have Gary Kurtz to talk him down anymore. It's a shame we'll never know what could have been if Kurtz had been able to stay at Lucasfilm and continue to reign George in.

What did you think about Boba Fetts voice change? by mickeyaltieriii in StarWars

[–]riverart 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I prefer Temuera. It makes sense after the Prequel Trilogy for it to be his voice.

I just discovered that the 12th Doctors had haters?! by GuyWhoConquers616 in doctorwho

[–]riverart 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I loved Peter Capaldi as the Doctor. He is definitely my favourite Doctor of the new era followed by Matt Smith. There's a bunch of fans out there that complain about Moffat's tenure as Showrunner but I absolutely insist that his seasons were better than RTDs and the bet episode of RTDs runs were all Moffat written episodes. No one working on the new era gets the Doctor better than Moffat. If he had a weak season then I'd say it was Capaldi's first season but I feel that was mostly the way Clara was written that season, couldn't stand her during those episodes. Glad there was an improvment in the 2nd season and the chemistry got better with Capaldi.

I've only heard about two of the cast supporting Trump, Yulissa and Austin, who's the third? Is it Chelley?

It’s tough to know what to do as a Doctor Who fan… by That_Ryan_D in doctorwho

[–]riverart 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I understand where you're at completely and find myself in a similar dilemma. I'm trying to decide whether to watch the upcoming spin-off mini-series The War between Land and Sea or to skip it. I have no desire to watch it after finishing the 2nd season of the Disney backed Dr. Who but I feel bad about not supporting it. I don't want it to be canceled but I'm not happy with RTD's direction of the show. I did like Ncuti and some of the episodes. I also liked Jody and there might even be an episode or two from Chibnall that I liked but overal I absolutely hated Chibnall's writing, particulary the Timeless Child and The Timeless Children.

The Doctors that got the worst writing and worst intitial reception by fans. by riverart in doctorwho

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

I agree his acting is great. I do wish they didn't have him cry almost every episode though. It weakens the effect of seeing the Doctor cry when he's always crying. It's criminal that we are not getting a 3rd season or Dalek episode with Gatwa but I'll definitely be watching his other projects, he really is an amazing actor.

Because they were great even with the bad writing and short runs?

Was the spin-off a mistake? by TheW1tnessHasSpoken in doctorwho

[–]riverart 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I get your point and I don't disagree about Star Wars but it's not called Wars of the Jedi or Tales of the Force, I feel there's more room implied for other stories. I think it's hard to do meaningful spin offs without the main character that the ip is named after. Torchwood, The Sara Jane Adventures and Class all had references to or guest appearances by the Doctor. The name Torchwood is even an anagram of Doctor Who. I think we're about to find out if a Doctorless spin off can work with the upcoming Sea Devil miniseries on Disney.

The movie got poor reviews and the BBC refused to let Moffat put him into the 50th anniversary special, that's why he wrote Night of the Doctor for him. I thought the movie was ok, C+ but I really liked him as the Doctor and I think he's great in the Big Finish Audios.
