  1. It's a lot easier to ragebait for clicks than to sit back and absorb the show. So many would be better served by never watching that stuff. I even find myself no longer watching things like Screen Crush and he's usually pretty glowing with stuff. The YouTube breakdown industrial complex can't die soon enough.
  2. Gilroy said it wasn't intentional and that he wasn't writing with a newspaper. He was trying to be timeless and based some of it on stories of pre-WW2 Paris when people started having to leave parts of Europe due to persecution by the Nazis and use shadow documents to work and survive. The strike held up the show and it was supposed to come out before Skeleton Crew. Gilroy was on The Watch yesterday. https://open.spotify.com/show/3IcA76e8ZV0NNSJ81XHQUg?si=967170ecf699409f
  3. Of course he is. Mon pretty much understands that when she does the double I'm sorry to Leida. That said, Leida's a brat so her being in a loveless marriage that she sought out is kind of her just rewards for rebelling against her mother and choosing the traditions of Chandrila.
  4. Yeah, they couldn't raid a Columbia or REI in the zombie apocalypse?
  5. Probably hanging out with the Giver.
  6. Yeah I read that as Brasso trying to save the locals asses by acting like the locals sold them out to the Empire. Though Cassian blowing up the squad means everyone is f'ed now. Dedra is Syril's mommy now. Vel realizing Cinta loves the killing more than her. The Ghorman shit is going to be rough. Funny that people forget that Star Wars had sex slaves at Jabba's palace. Slave Girl Leia ring a bell? Why wouldn't an Imperial drunk on power think he can rape an "illegal"? I'm just glad Cassian killed every single one of them. I hope Bix finds the good Doctor and settles that score.
  7. I thought we'd be in the mix for a Champions League spot at the most. What a job Slot has done. Even suffered a bit of a new year's swoon that would've brought down previous squads with draws and lost points. So glad Amorim didn't happen. Sure we had injury luck this year but fuck if we weren't due for some good on that front for once.
  8. For a second, I was the world's biggest Palace fan. Can't wait for Sunday.
  9. Netflix is nominating Owen Cooper for the Best Supporting Actor in a Limited Series Emmy. He is the youngest actor ever nominated in that category.
  10. I'm not ready to write off the show and Bella after 2 episodes. You also have Jeffrey Wright coming in soon. I haven't played the game and I'm thankful for that because you game fhegs are almost as bad as GOT bookfhegs, of which I was one. The first season bought a lot of credibility with me so we'll see how this goes. Maybe it'll suck but I'm fine with letting it play out. I have more faith in HBO than a lot of you, I suppose.
  11. People had the same thought around the last episode of Game of Thrones first season.
  12. Maybe she put on the freshman 15.
  13. This new lineup is pretty good.
  14. Dora going to be exploring the potato this season
  15. Almost hit the...whatever building that was. Feels like people are going to murder that ballpark.
  16. Had to tap out after 2. Will watch 3 tomorrow. This faction is really annoying. The Chandrila part is really well done.
  17. Closest you'll get is this:
  18. I think they learned their lesson from season 1 where Gilroy set up the episodes in a similar 3 episode = 1 Act set. He broke that up a bit with episode 7, the 3 part Nakina 5 story, and the 2 final episodes. Back then Disney+ only released 1 episode a week. Now that they broke that model in the last few years, they're doing the 3 episode set releases. Those are also the breaks for time jumps to get us towards Rogue One.
  19. He was great in Poker Face.
  20. But isn't Jimmy Smits doing other work? I doubt his role would've been that large and Benjamin Bratt is really good. Maybe the overseas schedule was an issue since this is shot I believe at Pinewood outside of London.
  21. Is Kay Parker returning for this one?
