    The Magicians

    Just started binge watching the first season. On episode 7 right now and it seems that if you don't give this show your undivided attention, it's hard to make sense of anything. The main group of 4 just turned into geese (I think) and flew to Antarctica where some weird Russian guy is conducting...

    Marvel's Iron Fist

    Most of the actors on this show have poor form so it's probably more of a direction issue. I could deal with the neutered Iron Fist powers if every damn move on this show wasn't so slow and telegraphed.

    Marvel's Iron Fist

    Does this guy do anything other than tai chi and get a super charged fist once a week? Admittedly, I'm not very familiar with the comics but this is the lamest superhero adaptation ever. With that said, I think it's more entertaining than Luke Cage.

    Mass Effect: Andromeda - Autism reaches outer space

    From the stock photos to the half-assed planetary scanner used to complete those stupid fetch quests, they cut so many corners in the third installment. So, this was only inevitable. And that dialogue is truly bizarre. I don't think the writers are native English speakers.

    Horizon: Zero Dawn

    The reception this game has gotten is absolutely puzzling. I wouldn't say it's terrible. It's just an uninspired grab bag of action-adventure elements taken from every popular game of the last 10 years. Graphics are impressive but that color palette is downright boring. You're surrounded by...

    Horizon: Zero Dawn

    Meh. I'm glad I just rented this. I don't understand how a post-apocalyptic setting with MECHANICAL DINOSAURS is so mundane. This game is thoroughly formulaic (I thought we were done with MMO-style fetch quests) and there's zero reason to care about any of these characters.

    Deus Ex: Mankind Divided

    Loved the game but felt it ended abruptly. It should have concluded with the settlement of Rab'iah or something. Also, I just heard that the series is on hiatus. Sucks.

    Mass Effect: Andromeda - Autism reaches outer space

    My expectations were tempered after the garbage that was Mass Effect 3. They cut so many corners in that game and then tacked on an ending that completely undermined the narrative.

    Alien: Covenant (2017)

    Ridley Scott is a great director and all but he needs to develop a better eye for screenwriting talent. There's no reason for someone as prolific as Scott to have this many directorial missteps in his career.

    Star Wars : Rogue One

    The character development was the film's crippling weakness. Didn't give a fuck about Jyn or her relationship with her father, especially given the fact that Felicity Jones had the range of a muskrat. Saw Guerrera was totally inconsequential as a mentor and as a martyr to the cause. He rescues...

    Star Wars : Rogue One

    Like others have said, CGI Tarkin was a huge misstep. His appearance should have been limited to the reflection in the window but instead he got nearly as much screen time as Ben Mendelsohn. Maybe it's because I find the Force and Jedi elements the most interesting part of Star Wars, but I'm...

    Star Wars : Rogue One

    I didn't even know this movie was about the Death Star until today. Fucking yawn. Is every character going to be related to Luke Skywalker as well?

    The Walking Dead

    The actor who plays Carl looks closer to 12 than 17. Christ, has he even hit puberty yet? At any rate, this show fucking sucks because there's no one to root for. Rick is the most unlikable "hero" in television history.

    Westworld

    I really like where Maeve's storyline is headed, but I really wish they had provided more realistic or satisfying incentives for Felix and Sylvester to help her. Was it just pure desire to help someone they thought was essentially human at that point? She lost all leverage the moment she...

    Westworld

    I believe Maeve's decision to remain was both free will and part of her programming. The memories of her daughter are triggered and her maternal instinct kicks into gear the moment she sees the mother and daughter on the train. Without this chance encounter, she would have fled to the mainland...

    Westworld

    I don't think it was spoiled at all. The internet provides a forum for discussion and for reinforcement of beliefs by like-minded people, but all this internet theorycrafting wasn't necessary to arrive at these conclusions. If you didn't suspect that William and the Man in Black were connected...

    People who believe it's possible that Logan is the MiB must have some disorder involving facial recognition. No natural aging process would turn Ben Barnes into Ed Harris.

    Logan is definitely not the Man in Black.

    I'm pretty sure she halted Bernard's programming somehow before emitting the signal to Stubbs so that she could expose everything that's happening.

    When they started messing with her settings, they discovered that someone with greater clearance was already altering her characteristics. To what end, I have no clue.

    Westworld

    I don't think it's supposed to be that kind of twist. The Man in Black needed a backstory and the writers have done a good job at letting it unfold at an appropriate pace. Plus, it's gotten people talking. I suspect there will be another revelation that people never saw coming.

    Westworld

    She ostensibly runs into William after shooting the host in the barn. We then see her wake up holding the gun. This what most opponents cite as evidence against the theory. Once William enters the scene, the gun is not seen or referenced until their encounter with El Lazo in the following episode.

    Westworld

    What single-handedly proves the dual time period theory is the gun that Dolores reveals right before she, William, and Logan steal the nitro from the Union soldiers. It's at this moment that Logan says, "My, my. Look who's packing." If she wakes up holding the gun like many people believe then...

    Westworld

    She wakes up with a gun in the present. The camera then pans to William who appears out of thin air as serene music starts playing. This is the kind of subtle transition I'm talking about. There's a few of these in the first 6 or 7 episodes.

    Westworld

    She sees MiB's face in the present. She then runs to an open field. When she wakes up, she's alone, but the scene subtly shifts to a memory of her waking up to William. The reason this theory is so divisive is because they're seamlessly blending the time periods and it's difficult for many...

    In episode 2, Ford shows the buried steeple to the robot version of himself and states that it's going to be used for his new narrative. We're later shown the excavators digging up the huge plot of land.

    William only found out about the maze a year prior to present events. Right now, we're watching young William become infatuated with Dolores and follow the Confederado narrative. He's never even heard of the maze at this point.

    There's a nifty video on youtube that essentially rearranges the show in chronological order. It helps make sense of everything that's happened so far. You don't need a remarkable intellect to understand this show, but you can easily miss things if you're not attentive. Easy breakdown of the...

    What the fuck are you guys talking about? This episode only solidified the theory. The steeple has already been unearthed by Ford in the present. The dude even talks about being married for 30 years and encounters the same damn host that greeted him upon his arrival 30 years prior.

    Solo: A Star Wars Story (2018)

    Were people really clamoring for a Han Solo movie? I get that he's an iconic character but I can't think of a less compelling backstory in the Star Wars universe. And the dude playing him has an extremely punchable face.

    Ford said that Arnold was effectively scrubbed from the history books and their entire partnership was also shrouded in mystery. The scenes that appear to depict Bernard interviewing Dolores are actually showing Arnold with Dolores 30 years prior. He's wearing radically different attire and the...

    The Walking Dead

    I used to hate-watch this show and remain entertained, but this shit is just stupid now. I suppose their idea of a compelling villain is someone who talks his enemies' fucking heads off. And now they've introduced some obnoxious, jocular jester who will undoubtedly become a fixture on this show.
