I had a friend telling me that seeing it in 4DX would change my life. It did not (though a few of the systems were broken).

I know it’s incredibly cliche to say “I don’t get it.” but...I don’t get it. The first one was fun, and insanely gorgeous. It made 3D movies worth seeing suddenly. I enjoyed it for what it was, and promptly forget about it in all but pop culture references.

This one was pretty much the same; somehow MORE beautiful, but…

As pointed out in your article, this is not only nothing new, it’s happening every single day in every form of reviewed media. If it wasn’t, we wouldn’t get those Morbius commercials saying “...the greatest Marvel movie since Spider-Man” when Spider-Man was the last movie before it.

Insanely good show. They’re totally knocking it out of the park.

- Even as someone who’s intimately familiar with the games, my heart was racing during the clicker fight. The tension is incredible. I was crying out every time they didn’t try for a head shot though, ugh. I think if pop culture stopped for me in 2003 I’d…

I can’t tell if this article is being intentionally disingenuous or not. TV Tess was a huge badass; the way she talked to Robert, the way she just walked into a warzone, going on her own to open a path in the hotel, stoicly accepting her bite...I could go on for a while.

I feel like if you’re a clever enough viewer, me telling you “it’s not going the way you think” is itself a spoiler which will let you figure out the way it’s going to go, but truly, it’s not a cliche story and the ending will move you. The clickers are just set dressing for the actual story.

Insanely good show. They’re totally knocking it out of the park.

I despise jump scares more than I can even explain. I would like more suspense/thriller movies if it weren’t for the jump scares. I REALLY enjoy psychological thrillers too, but I barely ever see them anymore because I’m just so bad with jump scares.

According to them it’s trios, not 2-player. Unless they’ve changed their mind since that blog.

I had no idea how they were going to wrap this up, but I really loved it.

Really liked the episode, even though it was a non-stop existential crisis for me. There’s a TON of little things that don’t seem to add up that I have to assume will make sense next week, otherwise I have no idea why they exist:

You mean the red bots? They got brought in last season.

I’m guessing they’ll eventually have a way to put Cortana in a chip; the Mjolnir for the show was designed with that slot in the back of the head, and they lined it up perfectly, so I imagine it’ll be coming soon.

I don’t care about the helmet either, and that scene didn’t bother me much. He wasn’t armed either, which…

This show was much better as a MacFarlane-esque comedy. When it does the “homage” to Trek it’s just literally Trek; for 3/4 of the episodes I can find you a 1:1 comparison to an episode of TNG/DS9/VOY. I get it’s basically comfort food for the folk who don’t like Disco, but it just seems super fan-filmy.

Hades or Tushima should have won, easily. I can see a few technical awards for TLOU2, but it was not worth this breathless admiration it’s getting. It definitely should have gotten the music award though!

Well, no, individual plot points weren’t obvious, but the way he said it spoke more to a giant surprise than any one story beat.

I really liked it. I’m really sad. Everyone got their “happy” ending but it felt so bittersweet. Random thoughts:

If you’re not enjoying the show this much, why don’t you hand off the reviews to someone else? I’m not saying it needs glowing praise, but maybe a fresh pair of eyes and you not feeling forced to recap something you don’t like would help.

Wow, this was REALLY good. It had the perfect amount of info-dump mixed with action.

I really liked Genre! I’m not a drug guy, but movies and music are my two favorite things so it fascinated me to watch. Since Genre didn’t affect anything except Caleb’s perception of everything that was happening, I’m wondering if it helped open up his mind to whatever memories were flashing into him at the end.
