It was kind of a mess but enjoyable enough in a few spots. Tina Fey stole the whole thing though, with Cherry Jones coming in a close second. Also enjoyed the Wendy & Lisa score along with The Revolution (sans Prince) doing “I Would Die 4 U” over the end credits.

Bingo.

I’d recommend reading source material first. He mentions several times exactly how many other people on twitter made the same joke. 

I think we’re well past the point where someone can pretend they haven’t seen a thousand discussions about how nobody cares about Avatar.

I love Tyrion and am sometimes exasperated by the post-Season 4 writing, so here’s my grand defense of him. I think a number of Tyrion’s mistakes in the past few seasons were actually instances of him doing a hard but unglamorous job well, so someone else could ride in with an exciting cinematic closer, times he was…

I’d argue that this idea is stupid given that Tyrion has precisely zero claim to the throne—but, then, Queen Cersei has zero claim to the throne either now that her children are dead and the show hasn’t even deigned to bring that up, so I can’t say as I’m confident that the show won’t be just as “Sure, why not?” with…

I would argue that even the wildfire didn’t help him win Blackwater. Stannis’ army had made it to the gate when Tywin showed up to the rescue with more men. 

“The battle and fight scenes always feel so chopped up and cut around when its anyone else, but when we focus on Jon Snow, whether Battle of the Bastards or this episode, the action suddenly feels visceral and tight and real in a way it doesn’t feel with other actors.”

The stupidity of nearly everyone involved with this battle planning almost made me wish for their deaths.

cool.

I felt this way about Firefly... I remember the commercials as a kid and thinking how excited I was, and then I could never get on the right rhythm to catch it weekly... and poof it’s gone. (didn’t know much about nielsen at the time, but felt quite guilty haha)

Allegedly, Netflix puts the most emphasis on a) how many people watch a show in the first four days of its release and watch enough to consider it binging (which I think is something like up to 4 episodes of something like that) and b) how many customers in surveys state that a certain show is key to their renewing.…

I was not as much of a fan of the third season as the first two.  It could be that I binged the first 2 immediately after season 2 came out, but had a gap before the third season and had forgotten a bunch.  I like it when Netflix puts together a little 5 minute summary of previous seasons before new seasons of some of…

I went out of my way to binge watch - which I HATE doing - One Day at a Time this past season, and they still canned it. So I wouldn’t feel guilty.

as a Mets fan, I agree.

Netflix is a vengeful and demanding god. They are never appeased.

That was my takeaway, too. 2014 Gamora is in 2024 and probably feeling weirded out. 2019 Gamora died in 2019 on that planet with Emo Red Skull.

I see the whole scene where they’re discussing how time travel works, and naming all the other time travel movies, as the writers pretty much telling the audience, “Look, this is going to be pretty silly, but it will be fun so just strap in and enjoy.”

I’m gonna go ahead and file “no more Mets baseball” under the positives of Thanos’ snap column

Per the ancient one - it’s not that creating divergent timelines is bad, it’s that creating divergent timelines that now lack infinity stones (essential components to existence!) causes those timelines to be unstable and veer towards chaos
