The hilarious thing is she started talking just like Root, especially when talking about the Machine and how "she" talks to her.

I didn't read the article since I still haven't seen the last episode but for me, Root went from "F****** douchebag, hope she dies a painful death" to "YES PLEASE MORE SO AWESOME MY EMPRESS". That's what I love the most about PoI: the incredible women.

Absolutely! I still enjoy a lot of big blockbuster summer movies, but I am bothered by the emphasis on destiny and saving the entire world in so many movies today. It can be okay in small doses, but it is definitely getting tiresome. It's also ideologically troubling to me, as it makes every hero into a god or messiah…

Cat People

Alas, it has a spelling error, which once seen cannot be unseen!

So basically I'm shocked that they consider zombies breaking into cars a threat but actively help pirates conceal their booty.
