Jazzmatazz is still dope! Guru was a brilliant MC

Yeah, it totally depends on how you view what is real. I take Farouk showing Syd what David’s been doing as real, so I felt Syd was justified in being upset with David. I cannot wait for Season 3 now!

You could certainly see it that way. I see it that David is the villain because he is doing bad things despite knowing they are wrong now. Farouk only showed Syd real things David did. David wiped her mind without her consent, then Farouk merely give her back her memories. That purple scene has Farouk telling David

That’s a fair criticism. I think David’s loneliness and everyone’s casting him aside instead of helping him makes him turn. He, like anyone, has potential for good or evil. David could destroy the world, so they accuse him of having that potential. This leads to a self fulfilling prophecy wherein David turns, which

To be fair, Syd also raped her mother’s boyfriend and got him sent to prison for it. David raping Syd is also horrible. They are both questionable figures. I think Farouk is right that what David did was wrong, and Syd will forever hate him for it. The truth is that David is the villain and Syd with Farouk will have

I think David’s turn was earned. We’ve seen 2 full seasons showing how crazy he is with split personalities and spontaneous thinking. He thinks he is doing the right thing, whether it’s saving Syd or the world. But David wiping Syd’s mind clearly does not occur to him as heinous and unethical. His multiple

Incredible finale! Farouk & David’s scene in the purple light may be my new favorite scene in all of Legion.

I just saw First Reformed! It’s great. 4/5 stars. I think it’s Ethan Hawke’s best acting ever. The ending is off putting. Just a warning.

Lykke Li’s So Sad So Sexy is great! I just listened to it. It’s a melancholic and sultry dream pop record. Cool stuff.

I love Mysterio, I think Jake Gyllenhaal is a cool choice. I hope we see him in the big fish bowl helmet.

Darren Aronofsky directed Black Swan & Requiem for a Dream.

A.A. Dowd & Alex McLevy’s opinions are the worst hot takes I have ever read.

This episode was great for all the character development for Syd. It’s not all about the main story. Great editing, music drops, acting, and I did not predict what Syd would finally say to David.

I saw Love, Simon in theaters. It’s so good! I really think it is the best teen drama I have seen since The Fault in Our Stars or Paper Towns. It blends very relatable drama with well timed comedy. The acting feels very real. Nick Robinson, in particular, is amazing. Jack Antonoff’s music selections made the

We are blessed by God today for Al is God. As a longtime Sleep fan, this album is such pleasant surprise!

Aubrey Plaza is still a super fun highlight for Legion. Her sexy swim suit is just a bonus. I loved her hanging and blowing her bubbles out in the background of David & Farouk’s conversation.

There was a lot of horror as always scattered around in Legion. The Minotaur is monstrous and made me lean back in my chair when he faded into view.

Navid Negahban as Amahl Farouk is again my favorite part of this excellent episode! He’s relaxed and reassuring to David, while I feel like he’s still calculating.

Farouk’s actor was my favorite part of the episode. His monologue to David. The whole “I am the Sun” bit. The psychic wrestle battle was cool. I thought the visual effect for him zipping up the world with Aubrey Plaza’s Lenny was gorgeous and well edited. His finger snap was perfectly edited and synced too. 

I cannot wait for Howard’s End tonight! Hayley Atwell is gorgeous and such a great actress. Kenneth Lonergan directed Manchester by the Sea so beautifully.
