Unbearable cringe, character regression instead of development, many many poor decisions, and unhappy endings. So so funny
Good episode :thumbsup: felt conflicted as to whether I should root for the imperial clones or for the separatists :open_mouth:
it was fun to see ada be the big boss
im a sucker for tv show episodes that take place entirely in one location
That fight scene between Bobbi and Ward?!?!?!!! Bruh
Skye’s fight scene in the facility :exploding_head:
This episode was forgettable because it's not a part of the main plotline but once I did remember it was about, I remembered that it was quite thrilling and fun to watch
I went in with kind of low expectations, but still hopeful after seeing a lot of positive reviews. However, I surprisingly really enjoyed this movie! I thought it was going to be a cheesy movie that touched on cheesy Chinese/Asian-American subjects, and in some ways it did, but it did not feel super cringey to me at all. I felt like it had everything -- family drama, great action/fighting scenes, cool CGI, training montage, martial arts, Chinese, a smattering of familiar Marvel characters, car chase, and humor. I also really liked how much Chinese language was integrated into the movie in a natural way, unlike the Mulan live action movie, which felt so weird to have all the characters to be speaking English the entire time. One issue I had is that some of the themes felt unresolved by the end of the movie (I would have liked to see what happened with the father, instead of them just leaving him dead on the side of cliff lol). I also felt like Simu Liu had like, an NPC expression for most of the movie lmfao I could NOT tell what kind of feelings he was trying to convey in his face. However, I felt like the supporting cast (especially Tony Leung) totally killed it. Someone I know pointed out that the movie was written and directed by two people who are Wasian (white on their fathers' sides), which is a bit questionable because this movie is about Asian father/son relationships so that is also a bit questionable lol. Also, the director said in an interview that he only called on his own Asian-American experiences because those felt more authentic to him and didn't consider other Asian-American perspectives which is.. pretty bad imo lollll. Regardless, I still really enjoyed the movie (honestly probably one of my top Marvel movies as of right now) but I'm glad that I'm aware of these other aspects of the movie's production.
I watched the original Fruits Basket anime and read the entire manga over a decade ago and remembered 50% of what happened in the story but damn, while watching this reboot, the storyline still punched me in the gut and gave me the same emotions (suspense, heartbreak, hope, etc.) I had during my first watch :sob: Especially because they were able to animate the entire story from the manga (iirc, the og anime only went up to the end of season 1). Seriously such a great series with interesting and likable characters who all have so much growth and development. My only issue is that I would have liked more Kyo/Tohru episodes and storylines (especially throughout the second and third seasons) but I think that's just me being a hardcore (god I haven't used this word in a while :nauseated_face:) shipper. The other issue I have is that literally everyone in the series is straight (also a handful of relationships with questionable age gaps...) but I guess that's the trade-off to being faithful to the source material :rolling_eyes: Anyways, I think this anime is a must-watch!
i get that it's part of tohru's character but i personally would not want to shake hands and be friends with somebody who just slashed my arm
How could they leave us on that ending…. HOW!!!!!!!!!!!!
THAT ENDING.... OH FK...... how tf they gonna play that cheery-ass ending theme song after that :sob:
it's so weird to think that momiji had a thing for tohru, when their relationship seems so familial (older sister/younger brother) to me
isuzu deserves so much love :pleading_face::pleading_face::pleading_face:
Nice to see some character development with Skye and Ward, but it felt quite uncharacteristic that Coulson shot the glass beneath the doctor’s feet :thinking:
definitely the funniest movie from the MCU, i got some good laughs out of this one! my only complaint is that i felt like they picked 2 extremely meh antagonists (ghost & burch), i think it would've been better if they only did one really good villain instead.
the only thing i didn't really like about this movie is the villain but other than that this is definitely one of my favorite MCU movies! it's super fun, the FX are really cool, the characters are likable, and the comedy is great.
this season was probably the weirdest one yet but it was still really fun!
glad i'm finally caught up on peaky blinders but this season was such a drag.. felt like nothing made sense and it was messy tbh
wow that ending was one of the most stressful and nerve-wracking finales since season 2... also tfw you have to resurrect alfie because he's one of the best characters in the show LOL
polly looks so good in a tie
I actually liked this movie a lot more than I expected! It was really fun to see young Fury and Coulson. I also understand why they didn't introduce Carol until after Infinity War because she's super OP loll
me: oh my god karl is so grown!! i can't believe he's already 10 years old!
me, 2 seconds later: oh my god i can't believe karl's racist...
there is so much going on...
I love Ghost Protocol but I think Fallout is more suspenseful and fun! I'd give it a full 10 but I'm taking a point off because the TWO Paris car/motorcycle chases were a bit too long and dragged out for my liking :cry:
Uhh.. not really sure how I felt about this episode. Some thoughts:
1. Didn't really have any idea what was going on during the first quarter of the episode (mainly unclear as to why Linda was so mad and why that chairman business upset her so much?)
2. Gotta second Aid45's comment about that guy dying at the end... seemed uncharacteristic of Tommy, I feel like usually he'd just make the threat and leave it at that. (But I guess the journalist touched upon an extremely sensitive topic so.. I guess it makes sense).
3. It just feels so weird to see Tommy making speeches representing working class people when his family is the one profiting off of them in the first place and probably a large cause behind many of the grievances they're having (but I guess this is what many politicians in the real world are like, eh).
4. I suppose I shouldn't be surprised about Tommy marrying Lizzie following the end of season 4 but at the same time I'm disappointed because I still think May should've wound up with him </33 yes my heart is still stuck in season 2 lol
5. Didn't know that Sam Claflin was in this season! I love Sam Claflin! I also just finished The Queen's Gambit so now I love Anya Taylor-Joy as well!
6. Cool to see that Aberama is still working with the Peaky Blinders; I remember at the beginning of the last season they were wary of him cuz the Golds were alleged to be crazy but it's good that he hasn't wronged them in an extreme way (yet).
7. Wow Finn and Karl really grew up so much :pleading_face:
To be honest this was a meh episode for me and I felt like it was all over the place, but of course I'm still looking forward to watching the rest of the series.
really awesome to see tommy still getting his hands dirty even in season 4. and omg that ending....
wow, now that was a season finale...
Seeing a lot of comments here of people complaining that this episode is just filler, but personally I like the mini adventure-esque nature of the Mandalorian. Just because it's not plot-driven doesn't mean it's not a good episode.
One of my favorite episodes of the season, the ending actually made me tear up
