A couple other folks replying to you have kind of hit the nail on the head. My biggest issue would be the timeline compression. By the time Isildur is born, Celebrimbor is dead, the Numenorians have already fought Sauron once, and the One Ring has been made. Numenor already has colonies in Middle Earth and the…

JFC, Cordova was cast because the showrunners found him to be the best actor for the part. That’s it. The pigmentation of his skin didn’t, and doesn’t, matter in a show about fantasyland.

great movie, but a huge departure from the comics. I am a traitor to my own nerdy people to say that I am glad this version is getting a sequel!

Its also worth remembering that the show doesn’t have the rights to the Silmarillion, so anything expanded out in that or Unfinished Tales is, with a few negotiated exceptions, likely going to have to be changed or not follow the same path.

The judge did explain exactly what that meant immediately after saying that.

I liked when he referred to them as "his better eighths".

I didn’t even think about it at first, but it really does feel like something added really late in the process. Like at a point when everything else was done.

What the hell was all that talk about Aisha being the great family shame? She kept her head down and was a basic housewife for five years. As far as anyone knows, she was just left behind and probably died.

While this episode wasn’t as bad as the previous one, they take away a lot of Kamala’s agency. She gets…

The problem with that logic is that Ammit already killed people, including the avatars of other gods. Harrow killed a lot of people in the name of whatever offenses that might be committed at a later date. It would be both retribution for these killings and preventative, as more would surely happen again if they were…

to me the appeal of reacher was the cookie-cutterness. they don’t make as many cookies with that cutter anymore!

The reveal of Chris’ cut-up face after tying the helmet to the raccoon was great, as was Economous’ line. :-D

Yeah, I didn’t see it, but Kristen Stewart was really miscast in that recent Spencer movie.  Spencer’s supposed to be an ex-heavyweight boxer, and she’s like, 90 pounds.

Dan Savage has some shitty views on trans people, there is a reason people stopped listening to him

Jeff remains a precious jewel, and Shauna reaming out Randy for his stupidity at the reunion was great.

You are very rude and for that reason I refuse to engage in any discourse with you.

I don’t have problem with story and characters and themes, I thought them film is very decent and a worthy entry in Matrix saga. And the biggest surprise for me was that some Machines (or Synthients) actually joined the Humans, which continued the strange and unexplored nature in Trilogy of how some of Machines and…

That moron has a weird chip on his shoulder about what he derisively calls “philosophical” stuff in movies. Pretty sure he considers theme separate from narrative, which is like considering math separate from engineering. But he gets hilariously thin skinned if you call him out. 

I mean, he’s more of a movie star than a capital A actor, but his screen presence is not to be underestimated. He’s once again convincing as the everyman on a hero’s journey, totally likable.

There is a rather large Indian population in the U.S.

It’s an omicron christmas for everyone!
