Echoing the others: just play it. It has a pretty perfect opening that'll suck you in and make you forget your apprehensions. Your interest may then start to wane, but you'll have at least tried it. Though the design of the game makes it easy to pick up and play; boot it up and kill a monster when you have 20 minutes…

How about the atrocious, unmotivated editing? I know it's too much to ask the reviewer to talk about it, but maybe the comments can dig in to that. It was like a scene would just… end and, hey, let's go back to the present day for 20 seconds to see what's up! Some of those cuts were so jarring.

It's not even a real Nobel prize!

Especially since he looked AWESOME in it. If the show started here and followed him with that costume on, I'd be its biggest fan.

It was up at 12pm CST! Just look at the timestamp at the top!

I didn't have high hopes, but Brandon turned out to be a little sweetie and cutie pie, so it was a pleasant experience.

Yes, and those were pretty ridiculous and campy from the start. After the first episode of JJ, I was ready for something ridiculous like Dr. Who taking over a police station. If Cottonmouth is meant to be this unhinged and careless, why not do something as silly and fun as an RPG in the first episode? Instead I had to…

I'm not saying I want that, I'm saying that it seemed to me like that's what the show was trying to be. I would probably prefer a Luke Cage that was campy and ridiculous and leaned into hoary cliches; that sounds like fun*. If that's what the rest of the show is, then cool, but until this point it was about a superman…

Meh, Turk grows pretty consistently and Elliot's character changes a bunch over the show, eventually maturing. It's not some perfectly written character progression - because it's a sitcom trying to bang out 22 episodes a year - but it's not at all comparable to the stasis of the typical sitcom.

And I'm out. The partner being on the take followed by Cottonmouth personally firing an RPG at a building in the middle of Harlem was a one-two punch of stupidity. The show spent 150 minutes establishing a moody drama trying to Say Something with a certain amount of verisimilitude, and then becomes a cheesefest.

I just watched Deadpool last night, and while I haven't seen Apocalypse yet, I'm sure the girlfriend role is much more substantive and demanding than her supervillain role.

Sigourney Weaver… [will] be assuming the role of the primary villain in Netflix’s upcoming Defenders.

God, such appropriation.

Steven Soderbergh’s next movie

The world is interesting enough for a sequel/franchise. And Reeves is good at pointing firearms.

I've had the sudden urge to watch a bunch of Dennis Reynolds clips on youtube.

instead of sending us to prison right now.

"Don't kid yourself, Billy! If that pussy ever got the chance, it'd eat you and everyone you care about!"

I haven't listened to the audio. I prefer to read the transcript in the voice of Patrick Stewart, as in that Extras scene.

I'm not a kid! I'm an adult!
