  1. Were they Reavers or Gremlins, why were there so freakin' many of them?
  2. My take was Lord Asriel was just as bad as and was doing the same things as Mrs. Coulter. That is why Mrs. Coulter said take me with you so I can explain what Lord Asriel was doing in his lab. I felt that Lord Asriel asked the bad bears to grab him some children to experiment on and thought they had sent him Lyra. Lord Asriel refused to do his experiments on his daughter, but would gladly do them on Roger.
  3. A mostly pointless episode, just a way to maneuver the key players into position.
  4. More time shifting nonsense. As I suspected, Yennefer's story takes 30 years to reach the present. I believe Hedgehog and his wife are the parents of Princess Ciri/Fiona and Geralt caused all the present day problems by not coming back 16 or so years ago to collect the Princess as his "Surprise". So now the Princess Ciri is on a quest to find Geralt. I have no idea if we have seen Geralt in the present yet. It is almost impossible for me to tell how long ago what I am seeing has occurred. Not cool TV show, I don't want to have to think this hard and I don't remember characters that well unless they are named Mousesack.
  5. The timeline dazes and confuses you as Geralt rides his horsey from a blazing hot desert(?) where they are growing grain to a place with snow on the ground. Then he hunts a monster, how long, I do not know? Ciri remains in the freezing cold how long, I do not know? Yennefer goes on a sorceress' journey, how long, I do not know? Definitely several months by my reckoning. Possibly what we are seeing happen 30 or 40 years in the past. Was that supposed to be the King with the monster problem and his sister as young children at the party where Yennefer transformed herself. How long was that princess an monster? I am sure they can teach her language and how to be a proper lady and to be a Queen in no time. There is always one character in every episode that seems to talk a little too much. Shut yer yap! sexy detective sorceress, less talking and more clue finding. There is way too much plot going on in each episode, slow it down and throw in more nudity or more fighting, or both. How am I supposed to follow the story when there are naked women on the screen? Great fighting, but not enough of it. They still haven't explained the Witcher eyes, I guess I will have to look it up.
  6. Episode seemed clearer and the colors brighter. Little Geralt fighting, he was not even the main focus of the story. Good comedic scenes, managed to tone down the dialogue spouted by all the characters except for the Bard. If the Bard talk half as much, it would have been a better episode. Too much plot, not enough mindless fighting.
  7. I haven't played the games or read the books. So an uninformed opinion. Monsters CGI looks good. You would think if you would have 8 legs, you could attack with 4 legs. Fight scene should have been more challenging. Colors are kind of dull, fantasy colors should pop more. Like during the Wizard scenes, if that was 11 turn the rest of the colors to a 7 or 8. Tons of name dropping I was attempting to remember them all until I realized they had no intention of stopping. Must be shout-outs to the people who read the books and played the game. Fight scenes are well choreographed could have used a few more from the main character. Main character Geralt talks a lot (all the characters talk a lot) even the people on the show ask why the main character is talking so much. Running joke?: Everybody complaining about what Geralt is wearing, saying he need a new set of clothes. What he is wearing looks new and well made, not exactly sure why everybody thinks he needs an upgrade. Geralt's eyes changed color, I guess they will explain that at some point. Why would a powerful Wizard have a name like Mousesack, does the names Lionsack or Elephantsack belong to the Grand Wizards? Nice to see an entire army of thousands of soldiers color coordinate so well, each put on their team colors and it was very obvious who was fighting for whom.
  8. I think it is impressive that one person could represent everyone on Earth. Imagine how much each country's culture had to change to accomplish this.
  9. It probably wasn't that hard fly this ship since Lil' Oda decided to do a few donuts over Kuiil's planet to get himself literally "grounded". He obviously mastered the navigation part already.
  10. You say everybody has the right to choose how they live their lives and then you chastise them for the way they chose to live their life?
  11. I can tell the difference by the buildings, but even more importantly by how noisy our world is compared to theirs.
  12. I think Lil' Oda picked up on Cara's strong desire to defeat Mando (who knows what kinds of thoughts went through her mind to pump her up to win the match) when the friendly game of arm-wrestling got more heated.
  13. I heard a rumor that a few years ago, Anna Faris' life was problematic with an upcoming divorce and her child's health problems. I believe the rest of the cast stepped up to relieve the pressure and stabilize the show. Bonnie being such a great actress kind of stole the spotlight and the rest of the cast took on a larger role. I am sure if Christy wants more screen time they would be willing to let her.
  14. The only thing I could think about all episode was who sits around a campfire on a planet that is oozing lava. One of the aliens even had bare feet. I could see using fire to cook the Mange Goat but I would use electric lights for my camp, not a fire. There were three, 2-legged riding lizards, did two of them get injured/killed by the indestructible pterodactyls, I only noticed one get injured. It would be funny if the baby carriage was pimped out with all the weapons.
  15. I think the point of the ring was to place "planets with congenial atmosphere" all in one place so I think all the locations should be habitable.
  16. Did Mrs Coulter really open her mouth that wide while screaming or was that CGI? When Will wrapped the belt around his fist and punched that guy, did the guy trip over a cat? I heard the cat scream but I couldn't tell if it was a real cat or a stuffed animal. It is kind of weird that all the soldiers that do the same thing all have the same kinds of daemons, all dogs and wolves for guards, or all birds for paratroopers, etc. It makes you think that what you will become is determined at an early age, you have a wolf so you will be an officer over all the people who have dogs.
  17. Star Wars: What Happened To The Mandalorians & Their World An article about Mandalorians and Mandalore.
  18. https://thegww.com/young-justice-season-4-title-revealed/ Seems like the title for Season 4 might be finalized, Young Justice: Phantoms, The rest of the article contain many spoilers and much speculation.
  19. Karen, breaking Nancy and Carson's trust, has essentially written herself off of the TV show. The Sheriff seems to be down with, and a great source for, all things supernatural. Karen's character has no place on the show. They might as well pen the murder on her.
  20. Too much Bob's family, no Uncle and Auntie. They doubled down on Dottie being a racist. I guess people feel comfortable in the privacy of their own homes with people they are familiar with.
  21. Spending all their time on planet was boring. They need to go into space and have some space battles, go to different worlds with alien landscapes and have some alien fauna terror, something a little more terrifying than slowly rampaging escargot. They should give the political shenanigans a break for awhile by allowing equal numbers of Earthers, Martians and Belters to enter the Ring. Let the peaceful cooperation get shattered by the joint Martian-Belter attack on Earthers. Let the warzone be right in front of the Ring with the threat of permanent damage occurring to the Ring and no one capable of fixing it. It would be great to see everybody attacking each other while at the same time doing everything they can to keep the Ring from being damaged. People inside the ring begging the people outside the ring to stop fighting or they won't have any way to sell their new found riches.
  22. I am surprised they didn't make a concentrated salt solution barrier to spray on the corridors to keep the slugs at bay. What was the slugs eating. Are the slugs edible? Maybe the slug's neurotoxin could be used to keep the people sedentary and relaxed.
  23. Because there is no over arching plot, just standalone episodes, if somebody comes to your house, you can watch the episode you haven't seen yet with them, since they wouldn't be missing much. In 3 sentences you can catch them up to speed. This is a great tactic for recruiting new people to watch the TV series because you don't mind watching the episode together since you haven't seen it either.
  24. I thought that for a second as well but the perfection of the landing on Europa made me think that the Earth re-entry was way to Ham-Fisted to be a Lady Treiu production. I mean she built that rocket just for one purpose to bring home daddy, I am not sure why she would body slam it into the ground on re-entry.
