Ole David(e) never really was that into her. If they make this, they'll be over within a month on the outside anyway. 

That looks great! As much as you can tell from a trailer. Kinda cool we get LOTR and this at basically the same time. 

But why did they have to make some character black? Something something, source material, something something, woke liberals. 

Well fuck me. With this and Strange new worlds, after years of crying out for decent trek, in the last few months we get the best load of it in the last 25 years combined.

The guy who plays Gordon is such a great actor. That episode relied on him knocking it out of the park, and he did. 
 

And as seen in this thread, got a sick singing voice as Steve from American Dad.

Hang on wait. He tried to just remove the film. Explains why I've never seen it pop up anywhere. Ergh, that's a bit OTT.

Why was the Abyss sent in to the abyss then?

U Wot m8?

With this chat, I'm pretty hyped about the Ashoka series.

I mean, it'll probably be another Kenobi half arsed attempt. But there'll be some cool scenes in it.

So, I know why people have a problem with Urbans Butcher accent. I'm just revisiting the very first episode. OMG, he sounds fucking Aussie . I think the lean in to the Dick Van Dyke (which is fine in season 3, I can get behind that) must of been later on, and we've all conflated it with previous seasons.

That was ACE!

Dr Strange 2 doesn't even compare to Thor Anorak.

It just felt like it didn't add anything. The premise literally came out of nowhere. I also like Olsen, but yeah, she isn't great in this one. 

6/10.

Tl:dr

Watch episode 1, 3, and 6.

I barely touched the games and really enjoyed this. Was totally expecting to hate it considering the bashing it's getting online, but quite the opposite for me. 

Already downloaded a nice 4k hdr copy ready for later. Because trying to get Disney + to stream in uhd on a pc is an exercise in futility... 

I keep seeing Andrew Garfield whenever I see Steve. It's uncanny and a little distracting!

I agree with all the problems and positives mentioned here, but still really enjoy it.

I like the idea the story it's telling as a whole, but this doesn't have enough material to stretch for 6 episodes. I really whish they had done a ~2 hour minute proper Star Wars movie. So they wouldn't rush the script and fill it with ridiculous contrivances, and had a proper budget to setup proper set pieces.

That doesn’t look better to me, it looks a lot more fake & plastic.  It looks like they’ve just run a smoothing pass over it so it looks unnatural.  Don’t get me wrong I think the original could be much better, he looks too old, mainly around the jaw.

I mean yeah, of course it looks shit. The point is, this is one guy with a PC, who did it in literal hours...That's £500 quid labour for someone on the payroll, at best. So I dunno, maybe chuck a couple of hundred grand at that and see what happens...

Holy shit that was fast. Makes me wonder wth disney were playing at.

I watched the first episode of Season 1 back in the day (and binned it off quick) and recently watched the first episode of Season 3...I know thats not the way to do it but it was a quite a thing!

Swing back and swatch season 2 before continuing with 3.

As if by inconvenient magic!

As a disclaimer, I do follow this chap on youtube, he might be considered a little "right wing" by rllmuk standards, but his points, and critique are always reasoned, and thought out with justifications.

I haven't caught up with the rest of the thread yet but FOR FUCKS SAKE don't link to that piece of shit site full of fucking lies.

 

Moses ingram posted many viciously racist messages she got on instagram, and said there was hundreds more. Then Disney responded, and so did Ewan McGregor.

 

bounding into comics is a fully involved arm of those comicsgate / geeksngamers shitheads, so don't believe a fucking word of it.

Sorry mate. I don't know of the site, it was just the top result on google when I searched referencing the tweet!

Much better fight IMO and that’s 3 years old 

I love this. Yeah, the CGI is janky and amateur, but this is canon in my head now.

You could have just said you were wrong, but oh no, you just couldn't help yourself ... you just had to add "they realised their writing is shit, and so pulled the race card to hide behind". Fucking hell...

C'mon mate, really? The writing is shit, she IS shit...so far, though I think we all see where her story arc is going. Why are you trying to bust my chops for that opinion? I "fear" that's the narrative that is coming out, hence my previous posts. You are mis interpreting me, and it's not appreciated. I didn't *say* they think they're writing is shit so they're hiding behind the race card. I said, my whole reason for posting was because I feared that, and I took (most) of it back, and there you are, still attacking. Jesus christ, sorry for having a different viewpoint and then trying to listen and learn from other people.

Alright, ok ok guys! I'll admit defeat on this one (slightly haha). 

I still think Disney should have played that a bit smarter, because no shit, anyone that isn't a white straight male, WILL get some shit on the internet regardless of what they do. I'm just trying to view the community positively, and that people (most people) aren't just gonna lynch someone because of their race or gender, and there, IMO is legitimate criticism to be levied at this character, and other characters "of colour", and I don't want it to be a defence shield if Disney, or whoever else doles out some shit writing, and hides behind discrimination.

But yeah, ok, I had a think, read your replies. I will retreat
