Same. In fact, quitting a show can often feel like a relief for me.

“Having the blood of the dragon in your veins means that you’re either conquering cities or angry at yourself for not conquering cities.”-

You’re not wrong. I was completely disoriented for most of the episode, as I tried to acclimate to all the new kids, some of the age-ups (Leanor looked older last week) and some old characters, that it turned out to be more important than they were shown to be (while others turned out to not). But I still really liked…

What’s funny about the bastard thing is, as heir to the throne, Rhaenyra can just legitimize them once she’s in power. Easy peasy

I’m wondering when the hell Olivia Cooke gets here, since she’s the only reason I was interested.

I think The Little Mermaid is a story about a girl who got a guy to see her for her personality, despite a communication barrier. But I agree with the rest. These remakes are lesser works, and the underrepresented deserve better than superficial swaps. However, the Twitter videos are very sweet, and puts a lot into…

It’s funny thinking about GoT's late-season plot armor, and then get what we just saw with Daemon this week. The fact that he survived his one-man attack was ridiculous and exactly the sort of thing Thrones started getting called out for.

I’m not too high on fantasy, and will probably be lost by the lore, since I only casually like LotR, but my overall impression of the first two episodes is... I was spellbound by this. Which I don’t get to say alot. Its incredible! Pretty much all of it works. (Except for when the mom just up and left her kid to go on…

I agree, but I think both prequels are starting as strong additions to their franchises.

“There are signs that these attempted takedowns are becoming less influential with each new project they set out to sink.”-

I agree. But this article at least attempts to be more even-handed than I expected, so I’ll give it a little credit for that. What you’re describing is something I see far more from the people who work on these shows, in response to any criticism. 

Hey that’s fair. I expect the show will be getting quite a lot of blowback for going this route. But I also expect people grow comfortable with it in due time

What is happening with Mysaria’s accent?

Using the same intro theme could be read as the show being lazy, or even manipulative, but I saw it more as the show just playing it safe. I was surprised, and maybe a little disappointed by the decision at first, but by the time the titles were over, I think I didn’t mind. There’s no topping the original music anyway,…

It’s review-adjacent, I guess. There is definitely some commentary in here, though I found them to be bad takes. It just doesn’t read like it’s by a professional. It’s so casual it’s like reading someone’s blog. Since last week, it was clear these weren’t going to be quality articles.

I think the show is going to be okay after all. We are back... Jury’s still out on the actors though. This could be a Netflix imitation of Game of Thrones and I’d believe it. They don’t immediately ‘pop’ like the cast of the OG series. That kind of talent isn’t replicated easily. House of the Dragon needs a…

I agree with your first point regarding this (laughable) review.

It's still crazy to me to think of Kena as an indie game. The production values are top notch

I also found Cyberpunk to be pretty good. It’s well written and one of those games where the sidequests are cooler than the main quest. What few bugs I experienced were funny more than anything, but it more or less runs great now, post-patch. I wish it did a little more with branching choices, and I wish romance…

Outrageous? When Daenerys had her baby dragons stolen in Season 2, and almost lost the game before she got a chance to play, lol. I don’t remember much about Season 2 (it’s uneventful on purpose because they were saving the whole budget for Blackwater- Robb Stark is literally winning an entire war offscreen), But I do…
