I was blaming HBO on the short season, but I stand corrected.

The show is not the one with the problem. Fans and their overactive imaginations are. The obsession with dissecting every little thing and the expectation of momentous feats from every character at all times are exhausting for the rest of us.

I yelled YESSSS! when she tore through Thanos’ ship, and my 20 year-old daughter shushed me.

My 14 year-old daughter squealed and was quite happy, so I am not going to nitpick.

Yup, good way to save money and get a striking visual when the weapons on fire start disappearing and the white walkers/wights engulf them.

Never mind, youtube to the rescue.

I hope the next episode spends a decent amount of time showing the repercussions of this battle, and the human toll of it, instead of dashing to Kings Landing immediately. We may have expected more main/known characters to die, but the truth is there was carnage. The Dothraki and Unsullied were obliterated, and a lot…

Thank you for acknowledging the music. I am obsessed with it since last night’s episode, but haven’t found it anywhere. I hope I don’t have to wait until the season 8 soundtrack comes out.

Not them, HBO and their budget constraints have dictated the shorter latter seasons.

That’s how I see it too. Keep the woman happy so Villanelle can GTFO quicker.

I disagree with Danette. Villanelle’s snapping the boy’s neck right after he said he wished he had died in the accident was her weird way of empathizing with him and sparing him a lifetime of suffering.

Exactly. I am programming my DVR.

Unless they’re homeschooled or get a sack lunch, they’ll be out of mom’s orbit for school lunch and will have to make choices. School cafeterias are not a bountiful harvest of meal choices, but there won't be people accommodating them there. My picky kid has to make do at school.

I have a child like this. You have to let them be. What excites you about new cuisines likely stresses the hell out of your sister. Neither of you will change the other. Just put up with her on her special day and explore on your own or with like-minded friends.

Thank you for saying what I was thinking about.

Aside from the obvious pandering to the audience, I’m pretty sure this is what she means. The increasing prevalence of streaming does put the movie theater business in trouble, and it’s true that watching a movie in a gigantic screen is a spectacle, unlike watching the same on a tv, laptop or phone screen.

Watched Captain Marvel with my 14 year-old daughter on Friday. We absolutely loved it. The next day I got this. #fangirlin’

Yes! I just posted about it before I saw your comment.

It’s the same old story. It’s not Jordan Peele’s fault that he gets hyped to death. It sets up an insurmountable standard. It happened with M Night Shyamalan too. Unbreakable is superior to Sixth Sense, but when it came out it wasn’t as well received.

Living in the Houston area, my comfort favorite when feeling down is a hot bowl of Pho Ga, and spring rolls with peanut sauce. An alternative is fajitas. That is if I have enough drive to go out. At home it would be whatever is easy to put together.
