Nah, it had nothing on Iron Fist.

It's because they're following the books while also stripping out a lot of the connective tissue of the books. In the book Mao kidnapping Avasarala isn't to kill her, because it's impossible to disguise the public fact that the Deputy Undersecretary of Executive Administration aka the third most powerful person in

That would be really dumb considering how in the book it was a twist that happened after the conflict was resolved. We still have half a season to go.

It could have opened up some room for a Bobbi action sequence that actually does the character and the armor justice. Maybe a 14 episode season?

It would be dumb if they did, and waste a great twist moment at a time when its not nearly as effective.

"We gotta talk" happens at the end of Caliban's War, and we're nowhere near that. It's alright.

If you think about it, the Roci shooting torpedoes at them puts pressure on the Martians' space defense network that the UN ships can exploit to score actual damage.

Elvi is pretty damn bad. Her entire character boils down to "Needs to get laid". That's it. Utter waste of pagetime.

Book 3 is also pretty awful. 4 is also bad. The only detail I recall is the female scientist whose sole defining character is "Really needs to get laid."

Horizon: Zero Dawn has a number of narrative based side quests and fewer "Go here and kill X monsters" "Errands".

Those reviewers still played like 40-50 hours of the game to write their reviews, and if a game fails to grab you or present a halfway decent face at the start of the game then it's the game's problem.

Neither can Finn Jones. At least Tan looks more charming and less creepy weirdo.

We should also be disappointed. Forcing actors to film a fight scene with only 15 minutes of prep is pretty awful showrunning.

If the first half of a story is garbage, then it's a garbage story.

Literally all that Marvel Netflix's Kung Fu show needed to be was to be Into the Badlands in New York City, and they couldn't manage that.

I mean, Henwick apparently has some experience in wushu, so of course they make her practice karate. Apparently. For a show so reliant on Asian culture they do a bad job of muddling Japanese and Chinese culture.

Because it's not a problem with an Asian character knows Kung Fu.

"The reviewer does know that he's a 25-year-old that hasn't lived in American (or Earthly) society since he was a little boy, right? Think of how out-of-whack you'd be in moving about the modern world if you returned after the better part of fifteen years with only memories and perceptions of how to adult as filtered

On the contrary. Making Danny Rand Asian-American would have opened up some legitimately groundbreaking storytelling opportunities in exploring the disconnect felt by Asian Americans immersed in Asian culture.

Not when the original premise of Iron Fist is founded in a racist depiction of East Asian culture.
