glad you like the show and if you like it, that is all that counts for you. Most others see it as being on way too long and the end point should have come a couple seasons ago. The central premise of the show is gone as the show was about four nerdy socially awkward guys and the hot girl across the hall. They are…

its just stupid

It had an interesting beginning, just like Divergent did, but the execution of it is horrible. The reason for the maze makes no sense, just the expense and man hours to build it alone would be ridiculous. If there is a virus, would you just research it in a lab? It was the ultimate rube goldberg machine.

I got about halfway through the first book, it was really bad. Please, no more YA books to movies please. The Hunger Games was lightning in the bottle. Every other knock off has been terrible. The Maze Runner, Divergent..all of them were terrible and the movies were terrible. The plots to these books make…

Respectfully, you are trying to separate that which cannot be separated. Not liking Bates is the same thing for not liking Fellowes' writing of the character. I do not think anyone does not like the actor personally, just the character and the fact he has not had an original plot point since season 3, and the plots…

The Bates hate this season is basically because this is what the late reviewer Roger Ebert called an "idiot plot". Which is defined as the drama only exists because people are acting like idiots. Anna, "we cannot ever, ever have kids and Mr. Bates will hate me for it!" idiot answer: No, he says it doesn't matter…

I agree with you and your "2b". One of the weaknesses of this show is that the first couple of seasons Bates had a juicy story and a reason to exist, then in the last several seasons they just basically repeated the exact same story with him. I do not deny actors their paychecks, but if there was one example of…

After a pretty decent first episode, this episode was more like a "D" grade. It was obvious and ham handed and basically boiled down to "poor Edith" and "poor Anna". Man, is Anna a debbie downer. Even after Mary tells her a doctor can examine her, she was still like E'or from Winnie the Pooh..it probably won't work…

I know! We Americans are being discriminated against on this show. lol Has there ever been so many roles cast with Brits doing American accents in an American show?

In other words, we are going to ride this to it peeters out, no Breaking Bad/Mad Men ending here. In a year or three, when rating go down, maybe we will announce an end date to put some juice in the ratings and manipulate people to watching it again.

I think they just did that with Fear the Walking Dead.

I do not see this changing. I do not remember even one episode where they have not included all the main characters and they cannot always be together at Sheldon's apartment. This show is in the bonus round/victory lap stage where the actors are cashing their big paychecks ala late seasons of "Friends" and they are…

I admit, I hated the book. I "know" it is considered a great science fiction book, but I hated it. I didn't buy the entire premise and I thought the prose was stilted and the characters thin. But just because I hated the book does not mean I necessarily would hate the movie, but the movie I hate for a different…

wow, its like a four leaf clover! Someone in the history of the earth likes Dune!!! We have a sighting! Please kind sir, tell us how life is like on your planet? We can learn so much from you! Do people on your planet have 90% of their movies done in voice-overs? Are ugly, cheap special effects really well liked…

exactly! See, my theory holds up lol, name the movie and within five minutes you can tell if it will be good. You cant do that with any other genre. You watch a legal drama, it depends on the acting and how good the plot is and you can be almost all the way through before you have an opinion on if it is a good…

I admit, art is subjective. If you could logically make great music or great movies, everyone would be great. Personally, I think Star Wars rose above this kind of criticism because it had one of the best villains in movie history (Vader) and Han Solo, whose name in nerd circles is synonymous with being cool. Plus…

I went to the theater to see this after everyone was telling me how awesome it was, and as soon as I heard "unobtainiam", I said, "this movie is going to suck"..and it did. It was just like when I saw Dune, just the first few minutes into the film with that god-awful explanation of the story, I did not have to see…

As a sci-fi fan, that movie sucked. I do not know what fever gripped the world at that time get that movie to make that much money and get so many 4 star reviews. It somehow gets a pass from retroactive hate where the Star Wars prequels do not, but Avatar was just awful. A cheesy, derivative cartoon that passed as a…

I have to admit, I do not get this hero worship of Ruth Ginsberg. I am not saying a Supreme Court justice should not have a biography, its the pop culture love she gets. She seems to me to be rather an embarrassment nowadays. She is way too old and should retire. She falls asleep on the bench and even at the state…
