I saw this a couple of weeks ago as well. I too thought it was decent but not the best Godzilla movie of all time.
I did appreciate the old school movie feel to it, but I thought the acting was actually pretty good -
Ok I have to respectfully disagree with the post above.
I went to see this movie yesterday - I went solo because 1. I wanted to see if the hype was worth it and 2. I didn’t want to go with my mom or friends if this really was bordering on pornographic
Well- I was expecting this to be weird (it’s Yorgos L) it was hands down one of the best films of 2023
it is soooo Oscar worthy and I think it’s going to win big….emma stone deserves an award sweep for this and I personally didn’t think she deserved that Oscar for la la land, but for this, she totally does.
it has a great feminist message so this movie for me was better than Barbie in the messaging though it was an adult message
as for the sex scenes- I’m totally not getting all the backlash 🤷🏽♀️ it was no worse than some of those trash shows on Netflix, these people saying it should have been nc17 I don’t think really watch the shows they claim to review otherwise they wouldn’t be saying this
granted the movie is not for everyone, especially if one is not a fan if the directors work, but if one appreciates a different kind of film I think one will really love it
i give Emma stone credit you see ALL of her and when I did some further research it looks like they filmed it not long after she had her baby 😳
But yeah, if anyone is on the fence, go see it! People seem to be falling into the love or hate category.

just rewatched all of Tai’s scenes from the crash to when she arrives at Lottie’s compound and she doesn’t talk about where Sammy or Steve are.
Thanks for the info, I was pretty certain it was never mentioned, I get it had only been maybe 2-3 days, but parents still talk to their kids, even if they don’t have custody 🤷🏽♀️
And did you put Steve in boarding Tai? Such sloppy writing 😐

And they can afford the special machines and paper.
He is? Lol - I seriously don’t remember this, I remember him saying he didn’t work because of the head injury and he received millions in the settlement , but I don’t remember him saying his actual employment before 😆
For what it’s worth, still a big fan of the show, was just let down by this season compared to last

I thought this was really cute, will be interesting to see Gizmos backstory and how he ends up with Wing permanently

As others have said, Walter just can’t fabricate legit bank records, plus the autopsy
if he had staged it to look like Kevyn committed suicide, I think that’s more believable
if what Walter did succeeds, and those storylines truly are dropped, that’s bad writing, but I don’t think they will be because what else are they gonna fill 3 more seasons with?

Do we know for sure Sammy is with Simone’s parents? I should re-watch, but at this point I’m only interested in rewatching season 1
at least it’s confirmed the cabin daddy storyline hasn’t been dropped, they better show us how he fits into all of this
I have a feeling the Jessica Roberts/Adam Martin stuff is not dropped, I think another detective will come in and start looking at the YJs but be more discreet, like someone mentioned autopsies, and when both the Roberts and Tan ones come back, the cases will be reopened
I never understood the point of the Adam storyline, even in season 1, I couldn’t believe Shauna killed him, and I refuse to believe the citizen detective can outsmart the cops, if the writers go down that path it just gives that movement a platform
i am hoping for season 3, the writers go back to dropped storylines, Sammy/Simone/Steve the dog/cabin daddy/crystals body/the man with no eyes/and Tai and her vision of wolves back in season 1
But I did call it on Jeff trying to take the fall for Shauna, I knew he’d do that and to be honest, that would have been a more compelling storyline, to have him on trail and have Walter/misty either plant evidence or give fake evidence to give to Jeff’s court appointed attorney (unless Tai paid for one) to use in court to plant doubt to the jury and have jeff be found not guilty! That would have been way better.
I do wonder when this show finally winds down, if misty will finally confess about the black box, I think when that happens, one the YJs will kill her-
kudos to those who said coach Ben would bounce back, but I think for sure next season he either dies or has to share the cave because you know they are gonna take that cave
maybe next season the group finally splits up, one takes the cave/another finds some other type of shelter

Why would it only make sense with an antagonist--if by that you mean a human one? The gods could be the ones granting the gift/demanding the sacrifice. Lottie seems to infer exactly that in this ep. Them eating humans doesn't mean that's their main food source. It might only happen in the dead of winter when they feel like they've been given the sign to do so. They wouldn't need that many people in that case as well
Ok if it comes about that these sacrifices are “for the forest gods” then yes, I agree plot wise only a few people are needed as sacrifices….I think that opening scene of the pilot is still a big clue and yes, that scene did look very “sacrificial” followed by the cannibalism bonfire
I say those now 3 established extras including Misty’s new BFF for sure will be those sacrifices, I”m just curious to see how it’s determined who’s dying…
we will see what happens to coach, he seemed better this episode
1 hour ago, WaltersHair said:Hey, I'm willing to concede Vancouver is where the plane crashed because that's where it's being filmed. I just wonder why, through two seasons so far, that the writers have had Lottie become a French speaking Canadian when she's having visions if it wasn't important to the plot. Maybe it's not, but I'll be disappointed if it's just a scare tactic.
I think after the seance Lottie became possessed by hunter guy or cabin daddy….I’m thinking he’s our French speaker or maybe it’s the unestablished forest gods?
the problem with this show/fandom is sooo many wild theories out there….but I’m curious to see reactions when who knows how many years from now we (hopefully) get the answers of what the symbol/darkness/visions are all about

I don't see how it changes the plot? I would even wager some of the girls didn't die and didn't return. but stayed in the forest. If this show is really gonna go five seasons it's gonna need a bit more than girls eat each other in the forest I can totally see one season where they go back on purpose to face all this down. I'm still pretty convinced it's a spirit witches in some kind of Vancouver Bermuda Triangle but I think it's feasible there are a few in the flesh adherents out there with the girls, who have no interest in helping save them or return to them to civilization, unless they say join with them. That's why I don't think pit girl actually had to be a Yellowjacket. I can't and won't ague if it's silly, because I am happy to read this whole text as heavily genre, and already fantastical in so many ways I'm not sure why this is a step too far and indeed would tack more firmly into a more rational explanation for how those who came back did survive: they didn't actually do it alone or w/o resources, even if some of the resources in the winter was human flesh/sacrifice.
^totally agree with this….I always thought from season 1 some of them are still there, I originally thought Lottie was one of them, but whose to say Javi isn’t? Mari isn’t ? Javi does seem possessed, I don’t think he’s going to be the same person, might be easier for Travis as the seasons progress to let him go…
witchcraft makes the most sense based on what we’ve seen, but I know there’s talk about forest gods…which….I have feeling won’t go over as well with the fandom if that ends up happening
Another reason I think other people come into this is because so far it seems we have quite a few survivors ….7 that we know of….I’m counting what, 7-8 people still unaccounted for? Just doesn’t seem like enough people left to eat plus they have at least one more winter but I’m thinking they might have another half of a winter as well until they are rescued…also the show creators said it was about warring clans right? Maybe that didn’t mean with each other-
because if they really go “to war” then somebody’s leaving the cabin, what shelter will they have? unless there really is some underground shelter for them to go to, but to me the underground shelter mysteriously there is silly though it was in the vision
as for the moose, I’m thinking it was the one Nat saw, she shot it right? I think it slowly succumbed to its injury and fell through the ice…maybe it had an internal wound and didn’t bleed out
3 hours ago, WaltersHair said:I also think they're likely on the east side of Canada, as that's were the French speaking variety are located. I worked in upper Maine near the border for a summer and met people who only spoke French.
I think it’s been established they are in the Canadian Rockies which is west?
maybe hunter guy was just visiting from Quebec😉On 4/15/2023 at 10:25 PM, WaltersHair said:Moose weigh up to 1500 lbs. I'm not sure the girls could have pulled a waterlogged one out even in their prime.
Exactly what the hubby said as we watched….no way they could of pulled a moose out, I just wondered how they planned to bring it back?

Man it’s been soooo long since I’ve seen the ice storm … I need to rewatch but I remember I liked it
I know he wasn’t in this episode but I forgot to mention… I’m 💯 a cat person, and I always said if I ever owned a dog I wanted a big dog, but Steve the puppy has changed my mind… he’s too precious 😆is he a yorkie ? I want, I want but I don’t think my cats will take too well to a small dog 🤣

I was sort of mildly disappointed by the first 2 eps but I loved this one.
Exactly ^ this episode to me felt more like the show I loved back in season 1
Travis is still disappointing I think, how can someone be so clueless? It’s clear Ben is slowly wasting away but he’s just…..”okay man”
I have a feeling his skin is who adult Shauna was referring to
I liked how last episode they sprinkled the Tai mirror stuff and tonight full blown showed us- so who is the other “she”? I’m thinking possibly the grandmother
Hard to say who is more dangerous - Tai or Shauna
But my prediction is once Kevyn and the police have what they need to arrest Shauna, Jeff will do a false confession to save her, unless Misty and her BFF somehow plant fake evidence pointing it to someone else-

I’ve been meaning to post in this tread since last week-
While this show is still one of my top 3 shows to watch right now, there is something about the first two episodes that seem off to me, I’m hoping I don’t feel this way about the whole season
If anyone cares or plans to rewatch this episode, pay close attention to the scene with Tai right before “ Sammy” shows up when she’s sitting in front of the mirror
I wonder how the story will unfold if/when Shauna gets arrested, one thing I do like about this season is that it has shown us how unstable she is
That last scene sure was…..gross

Well, I powered through and finished it, and everyone involved in making this should be
I powered through this as well, so wish I hadn’t 🤬
By theory 3 I was like, “I think I’m done with these Netflix documentaries”
though that pornhub one looks interesting 🤔
For real though, Netflix needs to stop giving a platform to the conspiracy theorists.
As for the lady that saw the debris on the satellite image, could that have been plastic? They say it just floats out there in big clumps….I always felt the pilot suicide theory made the most sense, for those people to say, “it wasnt his character, he was happy” obviously these “ experts” don’t know the first thing about depression/ mental illness
I do feel for the families, hard to get closure when you don’t know and will never know what truly happened though theory 1 is probably what happened 😭

I know you mean wild animals like bears (even though stastificallly attacks by bears are extraordinarily rare), but my post was clearly talking about domesticated ones.
I was talking about wolves too, but I agree, those kinds of attacks are rare…..but….the Revenant 😉
1 hour ago, Scaeva said:What did you find offensive? I didn't say peoples' deaths in WW1 were not tragic. I just said the horses, unlike the people involved, were innocent, and that gives their deaths an extra layer of tragedy.
If you are talking about the soldiers specifically in the film, ok, but to give the general statement that humans are not innocent in war is incredibly offensive, I mean, let’s not go there with WW2….
11 minutes ago, grawlix said:Admittedly, I'm not familiar with living in snow filled winters or by a lake. But, wouldn't a body of water that size be attractive to various types of animals? Does no one in the cult know about traps? It seems like the group was heavily dependent on hunting and scavenging.
They didn’t seem like the brightest of the bunch-

It's because animals, like small children, are truly innocent and entirely dependent on their caretakers
I take it you never been to Alaska? Montana? the Dakotas?
People from around there carry guns for a reason....
14 minutes ago, Scaeva said:It's why in films like War Horse for example, the the plight of the horses is more tragic than that of the humans dying around it. Its the humans' war, not the horses.
I find this comment offensive, and I quite liked the movie War Horse plus I don't want to speak for Speilberg, but I don't think that was entirely his intention when he did the movie, plus the play is bit different than the movie, I personally think the intent of the movie was to bring awareness and appreciation to the what horses did and the role they played in all wars from WWI and before, but yes, seeing those horses getting worked to death lugging that heavy equipment around was brutal. But humans dying in a world war, I would say, yeah, more tragic.
Getting on topic...
I shouldn't be surprised more people seemed outraged about the horse dying compared to what David tried to do to Ellie 🤷🏽♀️
2 hours ago, Niuxita said:nteresting how everyone immediately caught on to the fact that David 1) was a pedophile and 2) was about to rape Ellie.
For me the telltale sign was his "confessions" along with the touch he tried to do when he placed his hand on the bars. BUT, i didn't see the signs of the cannibalism....even when I was like, "wait, they didn't have the venison yet, do they?"
I should have seen that coming....
I'm surprised more weren't disturbed by the Ellie attempted rape/violence at the end. I mean, I think everyone agrees she had to do it, but I'm surprised people were not turned off by that scene (as much as they were by the horse shooting scene 😶).
I can't believe next week is the finale, I thought we had 10 episodes 😄

Turning to stone was easily the finest bit of acting Harry Hamlin managed to pull off in this tire fire of a show.
I agree 🤣

I was thinking, I don't see how it could it be renewed, yet here we are....i don't know how.....I decided if I decide to watch, I'm waiting until all the episodes have aired to binge it....if I can even get through that.

I saw a matinee and my theater was almost filled! This was great from beginning to end. Loved it. My favorite scene was the whole segment with the rangers to the paramedics. I miss those 80s rainbow stripped bags 😆

The terrible special effects, shirtless Lasher, and very white insta-baby all left a lot to be desired, however.
while watching the fire scene I thought to myself, "I thought special effects are supposed to be better in the year 2023 than the year 1983"
and yeah....the baby 😶 ....maybe since its lasher we are supposed to just not question it 🤨
and what's up with the falsehood of the interview character appearance? unless it happened so fast I missed it, I didn't see anyone from interview in this series-i swear AMC put that rumor out to get people to watch this because they knew this show was doomed with the fans

Not sure that I buy people behaving this way.
First who are FEDRA suppose to be, former military? US soldiers are not pristine, there have been cases of them brutalizing or massacring civilians but those cases are relatively few — at least the ones which are general knowledge.
But soldiers generally are taught discipline and following the military code. Now if they’re former police, it might be different.
KC FEDRA apparently committed all kinds of crimes to stir up so much hate that they’d desecrate their corpses.
Kathleen may have led the rebellion but people motivated to defeat oppression must surely see that she’s just as much a bloodthirsty criminal as FEDRA was. Ordering the summary execution of those people and they carry it out without question?
Did mostly sociopaths survive the fungus apocalypse?
I take it you don’t watch the Walking Dead? The humans in this show act better in my opinion. People would totally behave this way in a post apocalyptic world.
Not to get too into it but look at the current political environment 🤷🏽♀️ driving down the street and seeing foul language written about politicians on people’s houses/cars😳
And I think I saw a comment on this site from the first episode something to the effect of “after seeing what happened with Covid and people not complying these stringent military groups are starting to make more sense in these types of genres”
I’m totally paraphrasing but seeing how people reacted to Covid yeah, I totally buy people behaving the way they do in this world, the walking dead world etc.

I just saw this in the theater (still playing near me)
this was good fun, so much of a Chucky crossed with the Terminator 😄
I saw there's going to be a sequel, can't wait! though for being so smart and roboticist you would think Gemma would have figured out M3gan uploaded into her Alexa like device.....

So I've been watching this show from the beginning, but didn't get a chance to comment on any episodes until today. I was led to believe that episode 3 was supposed to be the "tear jerk" episode and while it was sad, I thought those two lived a good life together (16 years right?).
To me-this was the tear jerk episode 😭
I had a feeling one of them gotten bitten, when I saw it was Sam, i was like, "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO" *think Darth Vader in episode 3*
The kid who played Sam was so cute and a good actor I thought, plus while I haven't really been that wowed by Bella R as Ellie (I don't play the game I just found her to be annoying in this) I thought she was great with Sam, seemed to come out of her shell and it was nice for both of them to have a friend
And of course it got cut short 😡
I just loved their bond, the minute he died you saw her wall of defense go back up-and when she wrote the, "I'm sorry" on his erase pad thing, I JUST LOST IT
man, this show is just TOO GOOD

So, is Millie Mayfair that woman in the tub? We know this with absolute certainty ? She is a ghost then?
this is why this show blows, nothing is explained, except Sip is part of the Talamasca, Lasher is bad, and Rowan is a surgeon who apparently is on an indefinite leave of absence from work who is scared of her shadow 🙄
On 2/5/2023 at 7:55 PM, ZeeEnnui said:find it strange. I couldn't stop talking about Interview to my friends. I read the books when I was in junior high, and was unfamiliar with Mayfair Witches book series. Everyone I know that watched Interview was super into it. Must see watching. I truly don't get it. It's possible the changes bothered them, but if it's the gay thing. That was already present. Unless it was making Louis black, and changing the timeline? To me, that made so much sense and I thought was a brilliant update. Maybe, others didn't?
This show can be good. It just needs to be in better hands.
About the gay undertones in Interview novel, to me it was just that- undertones and the movie underplayed it even more.
I’ve seen on the fb groups, that some seemed to be not happy with the race change, which I still find so unfortunate - seems to be the thing now in tv (lord of the rings/house of the dragon)

I saw that Mayfair was renewed for a second season, and has inexplicably better viewing numbers than Interview (mind boggling). All I can say is, that if that's the case, AMC needs to consider firing the current showrunners and bringing in someone new because this show is like being stuck in Deirdre's magical coma-land week after week.
Whoa! What?This cannot be true! 😐
That is BEYOND mind boggling- if so, is it the gay thing? The race thing? Something else? Interview has always been the more popular and better known story
I think some people just won’t admit the changes bothered them (what I said above) I had some relatives that loved the 1994 movie that gave up on the show after 1 episode - I tried to tell them, “give it time, not all the episodes are that like” but they just weren’t having it

The Hunger Games Series
in Movies
So I’m very late on seeing this- I’m ashamed to say I bought this book when it came out and still have not read it yet- but I will
i quite liked this, however my love/hate with SC and her writing stems with the fact she cannot do romance, she screwed up Katniss’s relationships and she does it again with snow and Lucy Gray…she set a perfect opportunity to come up with something great to cause a rift or cause snow to go evil, but that’s what she comes up with???
sometimes I don’t get how she got published
I did really like seeing the capitol in early years after the war, I was quite shocked how old school their technology was!!! They came a long way in those 65 years 😆
