Yeah I really enjoyed it.

 

[Spider-Aziz]

I would tell you....but I don't want to contribute to your dossier of Hype users.

I'm asking cause he's a pal.

Do you give favourable obituary writeups to pals? Like when reek gets banned will you say he was a nice guy who always saw the best in people?

I hope he never gets banned. And I'll add that no one should badmouth the man (or anyone else, to be honest), he deserves respect.

If he gets banned he will push reektopia to greater heights and invade squeektopia. You have to look at the big picture mate.

Squeektopia is an ally of Reektopia, a partner in trade.

It would really be too quiet around here with no Reek.

A partner in trade but both continuously attempting to infiltrate the other. It is a neverending game of chess..until one gets banned and rises up with the full force of their armies.

You'd be amazed what we trade back and forth.

If the victorious are small and furry you'll know who's coming for you all next!

I'm camping in GA this weekend.

You all know what this means.

Reek and I shall play the most dangerous game...

Spoiler

Battles***!

Is reek small and furry too?

 

[squeekness]

No, silly. I am and it is all to my advantage. Im too small to hit, I'll fly like Yoda.

It goes on a bit long but the whole run was pretty good.

Halfway through and I am enjoying it immensely. So far my one issue is that this show is very much "show don't tell" and it illustrates some of the limits of that viewpoint. There are a lot of things that even halfway through feels... hazy. The nature of their universe, history etc. is being doled out piecemeal which is fine for somethings but not for others. There are some huge issues and questions about the nature of human society in the show that I think would have been better handled if they had been spelled out for the viewer.


But other than that I adore everything else. The production values, the dialog, story, characters, humor, the fight choreography... Great stuff. Makes me feel like I am reading a good Sci Fi novel or seeing a great story from Heavy Metal being brought to life.

I hope it can stick the landing.

Altered Carbon was really good. It gets a bit muddied at parts, but I generally enjoyed it. And soon, Lost in Space. Netflix is just throwing bags of money around.

 

[Kane52630]

I watched the first episode but I couldn't get into it for some reason.

I hated the original Lost in Space. My cousins used to watch the reruns all the time.

It's been a while since I recall the earlier episodes, but I could have sworn it did a lot of exposition. Possibly a bit too much for a scifi show that's clearly interested in being an action packed thriller first and foremost. They definitely got enough mileage out of the concept.

I obviously disagree. I don't want to go into spoilers but the concepts in the show, the history, and what impact they have had on society can often be fuzzy, so far. Some got answered and fleshed out more as the story progressed but I think some things could have been better spelled out.

Granted it's a mystery and that there is something to be said about dropping the viewer into waters and assuming that they can figure things out without spoonfeeding them information. Good writing tends to not underestimate the audience's intelligence. I get that and appreciate some aspects of how that plays out in the show but on others I do wish they had been a bit more clear.

Other than that though so far I am loving the show. It's very much what I wanted out of the SciFi/SyFy channel when they got into original programming lo' those many moons ag, but which has had only a handful of truly great or even good shows.

Who kidnapped Aziz and took over his hype account? Whoever it is... I like em.

It would really be too quiet around here with no Reek.

You ever see or read The Half Blood Prince? Dumbledores death is very similar to what mine would be like... Roose Bolton would shoot a flayed man sigil into the sky and everything...

This will never happen.

Depends... are you wining and dining me with a rom com? action movie? comedy? porno?, sci-fi? NO musicals. I like a good musical/play but i have to attend it in person... if you put that **** on my TV I will ninja kick you in the throat... and believe me... a Reek Jitsu throat kick is nothing to joke about.


And who else hates that damn Adele song thats always on the radio... give me love to your new looo uhhh uhhh oooovvverrrrrr

 

[squeekness]

A flayed man shot to the sky? Now there would be a sight lol.

 

[Reek]

I know Perfect Cell wants to make a gif of it... I know it in my warm little heart

 

[Guts]

Would circuses still be popular if the men being shot out of cannons had no skin?
