S02.E03: The Eagle and the Sceptre
dkb replied to paulvdb's topic in The Lord Of The Rings: The Rings Of Power
I thought it came for her too. I thought this was the best episode so far of the season, even though I totally forgot the most of the characters in this episode 😳. Pharazon's son is so slimy and loserish, as are that whole usurper gang. Glad Isildur's friend put them all in their place in the tavern. -
S02.E02: Where the Stars are Strange
dkb replied to paulvdb's topic in The Lord Of The Rings: The Rings Of Power
Galadriel just tell people what you saw in your vision. Your fuckup with Halbrand doesn't seem to have effected her standing that much with the King, atleast be honest now. Anyways Team Elrond! Poor Disa having to be the go between father and son. Poppy and Nori better be alright. -
S02.E01: Elven Kings Under the Sky
dkb replied to paulvdb's topic in The Lord Of The Rings: The Rings Of Power
The episode was pretty good. All I could think about during the Sauron ooze scenes was that Sauron is Venom?!! -
Definitely some kind of squid connection. Maybe Jennifer would be attached to anyone who touched her, it just happened to be Ben. I was reminded that I really liked OG Ben, when he wasn't such an ass. Season 2 Ben for the win! Is there going to be a twist on Reginald and Abigail, where she's the evil mastermind and Reggie is just her lap dog, cause otherwise Vicktor is right and all the Reginald's are always assholes. Please, please there better not be a Five and Lila romance or anything, I don't know why I'm getting a bad feeling there.
-
Ben was this annoying before too, or did they ramp him up this season. I feel so bad for Klaus, but I understand why Allison did what she did - these siblings are really codependent on each other. Poor Claire seeing her Uncle Klaus like that. Yeah, it was not cool Lila to drop that on Diego when he's locked up and can't respond. The message I'm getting from them is that, maybe not every couple has to go down the children and white picket fence thing. They would have been happier solo going to random cult meetings together like I said back in episode 1 discussion. Just Diego and Lila living life and being weirdos together, no family obligations. Luther used to be one of my least favorites just because too me he was the least interesting but he has really grown on over the seasons, he's just too sweet and adorable. Always trying so hard. Reginald will always always be the worst person in the room.
-
At this point, just tell Diego about your secret meetings with a weirdo cult, Lila and Five. The Keepers aren't wrong that there is something going on with the timelines and it has to do with the Hargreaves kids, maybe the whole family knowing about the cult would be helpful and poor Diego won't have to think your cheating on him Lila. Otherwise, it was a good episode, but yeah that van would have to deep cleaned before I get back into it.

S04.E01: The Unbearable Tragedy of Getting What You Want
dkb replied to AnimeMania's topic in The Umbrella Academy
Super glad that we got a recap of the previous season, cause I could not remember a thing. It was interesting to see what each of them were doing now that they don't have any powers, and that they are enduring a normal life, and not actually enjoying it - except maybe Viktor and Five. Five as a CIA agent makes so much sense, and I'm surprised that Laila wouldn't tell Diego what she's up to and them being a team, having fun going to meetings of the Keepers. Also I didn't even realize the new season had dropped, thanks for nothing Netflix. -
I also think he'll tell Maxie - and she'll tell Nina and Carly overhears.
-
Yes, sorry, your right. I was just hoping that there would be some introspection on Jason's part about his life choices having led to being away from HIS family because of Carly/Sonny. And maybe he needs to focus on his kids instead of his friends. The Sonny Jason stuff in these episodes could have been from any year before I stopped watching - it's literally the same thing. Their kids are just older, that's it.
-
Jason trying to be intimidating is hilarious. Why would anyone be scared of him, he's so lame. Is he going to try to go back to his kids or it's back to the Sonny show for him again? Any growth on his part about leaving Sonny and being a better human being after missing all this time? The Molly and Alexis scenes were great and the family stuff with the Scorpio/Jones/Cody was good too. TJ is really really looking awful with how he's acting. Pretty much confirmed that he and Molly are breaking up soon with the Stella and Curtis conversation.
-
Willow and Drew are just gross to me. I know once the characters are adults, ages don't matter on Soaps, but is Drew supposed to quite a bit older than Willow/Michael? And also what are you seeing in him anyways Willow? Like I know you have bad taste already with Michael but Drew?! He gives me the ick with the way CM plays him. Nina you deserve better too. Sonny/Natalia = zzzzzzzzzzz

This was me! Haven't watched for many many years (with brief check ups a few times) and picked up GH a few months ago again. Not sure what spoilers are out there, but is Sonny finally finally going to face actual consequences for his horrible rotten life? Is he gonna leave the show in a blaze of "glory" to never be seen again? 🙏 Sonny Corinthos and clan have been annoying me since I was a teenager. Only to find the same thing still happening in 2024. The scenes between Molly, Kristina and Alexis were really well done. Dante is great too (one of the only good things from that man, along with Kristina). And yes Sam should be there with her family. I don't see Ava coming out of this, which makes me sad for Maura (ATWT 😟).

Haven't seen most of the X-Men movies, so had a question. This beast is from the Ian McKellen x-men?
-
Haven't caught up on this thread so don't know what the general feeling on here is... but I really really enjoyed it. Although I loved the first Captain Marvel, so maybe I'm just a Captain Marvel stan like Kamala. Kamala is hands down my favorite character in the MCU right now. Kinda reminded me of the first couple of movies in the MCU in a way. P.S.: I wish movies just included subtitles as standard these days. Sometimes the background stuff drowns out the actual dialogue, and I couldn't hear what characters were saying.
-
I really enjoyed this alot. Agree with alot of what @thuganomics85 said. Was not expecting Darren to be MODOK at all, that was a surprise. Loved the last post credit scene, excited for what's next there.
-
^^^ Same. Could not hear the dialogue over the background. I was wishing for subtitles the whole time. This is what I thought as well. But others with me, thought it was a joke on his part. Otherwise, it was great. Didn't know what to expect with Chadwick's death, but they made a fantastic movie while remembering him.
-
Gotta agree it was good, until it went on too long. There were multiple times I was like, ok that's the end, oh nevermind there's more, ok now it's done, nevermind there's more. The more times it happened the more the people in my theatre were audibly sighing. It was pretty late on a Tuesday but still. Also someone upthread talked about The Riddler and the performance of Paul Dano and agree with that too, he was definitely giving me internet troll vibes. I also just found everything he did and said hilarious, but no one else did. Every time he spoke I had to contain my giggles. I really liked the shot of Batman coming into the first crime scene with all the cops giving him side eye. Also does anyone know what the riddle Joker told Riddler in jail was? I couldn't understand half the dialogue in that scene. There was a guy in our showing that was really really not into it, he was on snapchat multiple times during the movie, and checking the time constantly.

In ‘Turning Red’ I finally saw myself reflected in a main character "While Mei and I do not have the exact same upbringing, she gives me hope that the young Asian Canadian girls of the future won’t need to hide different parts of their lives from the other, or, worse, erase parts of who are to exist." This part^^^^^
-
Just watched "Turning Red" and loved loved it. This movie was hitting all the nostalgia feels for me. I am born and raised in Toronto so I loved seeing all the background stuff, like the Daisy Mart! I had a Tamagotchi and was obsessed with Backstreet Boys and Spice Girls, just never bothered to ask if I could go to a concert cause the answer would definitely be no. The soundtrack was great too, I can actually see these songs being popular back in 2002 for a boyband. Also it will be forever known as the SkyDome! Rogers Centre wishes.

Netflix is where I watch the episodes. Usually up a day after it airs in the USA.
-
I thought the doctor said Maria had died 3 years ago, after 2 years of Monica getting blipped/missing. I liked Agent Woo, I thought he was funny and his jokes with Darcy were funny. Agree @Jediknight Randall Park and Kat Dennings have great chemistry. I gasped when we see dead Vision, was not expecting that at all.
-
I really liked it. Frank and Joe are great brothers. @bettername2come gotta agree with the Callie stuff. They should have just off the romance plot for this season between them. Also I love Phil!
-
Just finished the first 2 books in the League of Extraordinary Women by Evie Dunmore, and I think they would make a great series. Romance and suffrage movement.

Feel so bad for Marina, and can't believe that Lady Featherington actually thinks that what she did was a good idea.
