Reacher

yeah. truck scene was rough.

The show did not do a good job setting up a scenario where the girls could win that firefight at all. walked face first into an ambush with more men, with more guns, bigger guns, were shot at first, with no cover. bullet holes in the windows, doors, etc... 200+ rounds. girls hide in the back seat, and trunk somehow. and kill two guys with 1 shot each. right. just magic.
like, if you are going to have something like this, have them check themselves out for bullet wounds, and comment on it. "fuuuuuuck me, that was lucky". but no, it has them get out, act like they planned that, and move on without even checking themselves for injuries.

the driver was set up. so there is a truth there. his boss, sold him out. But, that still requires the driver either not knowing what he's hauling, which no driver would take that job. they are responsible for that shit. or, knowing, but being so stupid, to stop.

new episode had moments but exposing yourself to fully automatics in helicopters for both teams was fucking retarded. your shooting a hand gun at a helicopter and out in the open? wtf. This season is just dumb, ill still watch but everyone is pretty retarded

"im not dirty! and if you suggest it one more time, I'll throw down"
"look the other way". ok.

brah

Okay, we have established that cars in this show are 100% bulletproof for sure now. That car door took what seemed like 100 rounds with the girl pressed up against it and she didn't even get a bruise. Obviously bad guys in this show have storm trooper level accuracy as well. The only way you're getting hit is if you run directly at them and get within 20 feet.

not 100% bulletproof. that's why that scene was so impactful. The cop who was counting the shots, knew the car door which had 800HP, and which had absorbed 300 shots for the last 6 minutes, was down to 30hp, and only 2 more shots and it would fail, and explode as cars do when you shoot them with enough bullets. That's why he had to send the girl running, and personally tank those extra shots.

Sadly, he had a str/con build, not the dex/luc build the girls had.

I liked that the cop told the girl to get , not behind the engine block which might have a change to absorb bullets, but the tires?
Also, anyone that remembers the book, did the cop end up like he did in this episode? Damn if I can remember.

This is like an amalgamation of 2 characters. Pretty sure one of them died, can't remember.

To add to everything, three highly trained ex military and they stare at the guy bleeding out. Zero attempt to put pressure on it etc just the I don’t touch people but I will touch you moment…

Reacher shooting at the helicopter one arm out and dangling like a chump, cause you got to push that gun out at the target to make the bullets hit faster…

The shooting at the helicopter or in general out in the open without protection is just dumb. Also where are the tiddies?

The sex scenes are really pointless to the story unless she dies. They are kind of doing there own thing at this point

She has a great body with that said

Lol no way he's natty, I can't remember who was on Rogans podcast and someone says the Rock is on the sauce Rogan acts surprised lol

Rock even mentioned he had to get gyno surgery in the WWE early on because he overdid it. Rogan is a willful idiot sometimes. Unless he was feigning surprise he's not on sauce now in his 50's, which is even more stupid.

I turned this off for good right after the scene where Reacher leaves the girl in the back seat, I presume for "safety" lol, while he crouches outside the passenger door as the entire vehicle basically shrugs off clips worth of automatic weapon rounds.

This season is basically the A-Team with a white Mr. T and some gurls. The guido cop is Beyond Cliche.

He admitted to testosterone use on Rosenbaum’s podcast. His walking around weight was 205 before Reacher, so there’s zero chance he isn’t on some serious gear.

Whoever said a few pages back you need to turn your brain off is right on. There are so many implausible things I treat it more as a superhero story than any kind of milsim or realism story.

That said. Ritchson is HUGE this year, his skin looks dry and grainy as shit. Juiced to the gills.

But he claims natty!

people saying that video is deceptively edited. he said he wasn't on T in s1. was taking T after.


heres that source. 2:40 is where the clips are from mostly. earlier is still interesting. "pizza and ice cream, every day is a cheat day. 30min workouts, daily..."
he says he started taking T and its a miracle. no claims of HGH.

I'm quite sure this TV show's demographics don't care about books anyway.
