Reminds me of when a director, who’s only feature film was Monster, was tapped to direct a Wonder Woman movie. That movie worked out great. Plus this this time, I have more faith in Gunn and his writing crew than anyone on the Snyderverse.

You know what, I think I stumbled into something.

I can’t see it becoming anything other than a new director trying to mimic Gunn’s style and humor. Fans will try to relive the peak Guardians, but will end up watching copycat Gobots Guardians.
By now, we should expect disappointment from any sequel of a fun franchise trying to relive the glory days.

Turns out, a fatal bat to the head was the best thing to happen to a TWD acting career.

I’m actually hesitant about giving my background details, but thought it was good to give context on why I felt this way. I’m actually American (and so are two generations of my family before me), just not, if I may, with the traditional American background that the show caters to.

I only used the 80's and 90's because…

I just watched the finale last week, so this article confused me at first until I realized that this was for the US release. Regional release dates can be confusing in the age of internet streaming.

Hmm, AV Club is not in the Gizmodo tabs anymore? What is going on?

I’m with you on the first part.

Maybe by DC fanatics, you meant the movie fans especially the Snyder bros. For me, DC fandom always starts with the comics and the DC Comics has a good reputation with having strong female characters and titles.

Ready or Not was a nice surprise. I’m actually glad that there’s going to be a sequel. Not Margot Robbie was amazing in it.

I have some chronic pain issues and came so close to buying in. I live in a town with a lot of wealthy, hippy-ish American expats and the CBD hype was everywhere.
At a certain point, you become desperate enough to be convinced by all their talk. The only thing that stopped me was my low bank account and then the covid…

Calm down, son. It’s not that serious. You don’t have to love Tim Allen that hard. And no, I’ve never seen Big Bang Theory and I’m not from any of those countries.

I probably should’ve mentioned that I grew up outside the US, but also in a country that was heavily influenced by US shows and pop culture. So, even shows with distinctly US humor or subculture like Murphy Brown or Mad About You would make prime time slots, but Home Improvement was only known because of magazine…

I guess I meant that I was baffled by how consistently huge the ratings were. Because the sets and the dialogue seemed mediocre to me.

This is actually a good explanation. Alf those dinosaurs were not.

I agree. I should add that this was my perspective in the 80's and 90's, when being the top rated prime time show was a massive deal and it was hard to ignore Home Improvement because they were number one for so long.

I did not. That show was before my time and, later on in the 80's, only the popular US shows made it to my part of the world.

I think because being the number oneso prime time show (and consistently for years) held much more weight in the 80's and 90's especially when only the three (or four) networks had everyone’s attention.

My teenage self might not be into some of them but I could see that shows like Roseanne, The Cosby Show, The…

I understand this sentiment. I also think that it’s a good example of my point that this show just catered to baseline American culture that the rest of us didn’t get.

Loot season 2? I didn’t even know there was a season 1. It’s getting harder to keep up with all the shows out there.

Truer Detective.
