    Rings of Power: Tolkien's Shambling Skinsuit

    oh wait, isn't this Africa? Or this? Damn... Maybe I have to reconsider Africa.

    Rings of Power: Tolkien's Shambling Skinsuit

    I am still ambivalent and hopeful. I loved the Fellowship of the Ring. Loved it. I do qualify as a Tolkien nerd. Each successive movie seemed to become more of a chore. Yes, the battle scenes in Return of the King were pretty extraordinary, but, like the movie series, a little too much and a...

    I will never comprehend that people think there is a "dog vs cat controversy..." It's like debating apples vs cherries when they are both fruits and you can eat them both. I have lived with three dogs (who all died of old age) and seven cats (5 of which died of old age), the other two go on...

    The Wilds

    Holy shit is this show captivating. Yeah, not what I thought I would find myself watching or enjoying. But it is intense, has unique, well-developed characters portrayed by some impressive young actors and the dialogue is sumptuous. Think Lord of the Flies with only X chromosomes. Only half...

    They totally blur out the porn stuff in the background! Did they blur out or edit the tons of gore too?

    I stand corrected- there were blacks in Middle Earth. And for some fun side reading: Dear Tolkien Fans: Black People Exist - The Public Medievalist

    House of the Dragon

    This episode was more tolerable. They ditched any original opening score for certain now and are sticking with full GoT style opening. At least it had a story that could be followed. I still don't quite get all the porno tapestries in the background. They trying to make certain that no main...

    Rings of Power: Tolkien's Shambling Skinsuit

    Someone is going to have to explain what happens to all the black harfoots and elves and dwarves between the second and third age? Maybe this?

    No. It would be racist to have it be pointing at the bank teller.

    Rings of Power: Tolkien's Shambling Skinsuit

    I'm okay with dwarves (and dwarf women) being black. They're like coal-miners and they don't like to shower: It would be seen as racist to have them in blackface, right?

    Audiobooks

    I recommend all of the Dresden Files audio books. James Marsters is a very good narrator. They are great listening for runs and cycle rides and long drives. Very entertaining candy for the brain. All of them are good. Some of them are very good.

    Yup- and guess what? He dies. Just like in all his films (including Fellowship of the Ring)!

    Rings of Power: Tolkien's Shambling Skinsuit

    I'm not sure on that yet. True enough that elves existed in the second age in the Lord of the Rings. Elrond was present when Sauron was defeated. But, as everyone's favorite meme can remind us, a lot can change in 3000 years... I don't think there are wizards yet, however. We'll see- they...

    Rings of Power: Tolkien's Shambling Skinsuit

    I feel like I have to chime in here. I saw the Fellowship of the Ring at a midnight showing on opening night. I have read the source material more times than almost any other text. So, I watched the first 2 episodes on Prime. I think I get what they are trying to do (which is EXACTLY what Game...

    No Time to Die (007 Bond)

    Everything or Nothing is my favorite Bond flick. Oh wait, it's my favorite Bond theme. Oh, hang on, it's my favorite Bond GAME... It kind of was it's own Bond film-- way better than most and it was a video game! I think Goldeneye gets way too much boost as a movie because of its game...

    No Time to Die (007 Bond)

    I got to see a pre-release screening for this one. Got a little Corgi Lotus that shot bullets at the screening too. Guess I am just plain old lucky that I didn't lose both eyes and choke on the little bullets it shot from the back part. I thought Spy Who Loved me represented the pinnacle of...

    No Time to Die (007 Bond)

    Maybe not; I know I am in the minority here, but one of the most intricate and intelligent Bond movies, The Living Daylights, was universally panned. But it was a plot that was closer to Jean LeCarre than any other Bond. And yeah, I really like/liked it. Fans and reviewers hate it. Bond films...

    House of the Dragon

    You will never see anything branded or referring to the Doctor Who series with the abbreviation of "Dr." It was a nerdy joke-- but it is completely true. The "Whovians" would be outraged.

    House of the Dragon

    Guess there wasn't enough porn for them. But seriously, GoT was filled with violent torture-porn (as well as just plain ol' porn too--actually probably TOO much plain ol' porn because it became distracting to the show at times. In plain ol' porn, that can't happen. Only plot can get in the way...

    I want to agree with you, but I clearly slept through too much of episodes 1 & 2. So my opinion could not be entirely valid.

    I had a hard time staying awake during both episodes. Even with evil Doctor Who... Actually did nod off on episode 2 for a bit, despite trying to hang onto consciousness.

    Why are they not dropping all the episodes at once? Episode one was okay. A lot of people dissing on Marvel/Disney, but damn; Jessica Jones is still the best thing they have ever done. This was just lighthearted dopiness that dragged on with the Mexico shit too long. Maybe they will take it...
