Just finished it now. Is it class? [larrydavid.gif]

The animation is dreadful - it looks so cheap. Monty But Didn't find the story particularly interesting, and none of the characters are particularly likeable. Relies a lot on 3edgy5me gore imo.

It’s pretty much lifted direct off the comic. Why they stuck with 2D animation so they didn’t annoy the fanboys. I liked it, looked like it was going to follow down some of the usual superhero tropes but subverted expectations. Did drag in bits but overall enjoyable for me

Feel like the “Pushing back against superhero tropes” thing has been done a million times before though. Warnock Watchmen/Kick-Ass/The Boeys/Suicide Squad etc. Don’t really feel like this one did much that was new
Spoiler :
apart from his dad’s role in it all I suppose

Been watching The Man in the High Castle.

Big fan of the book. The show's okay. A bit muddle minded and the some of the characters/storylines are really good and then others just seem like filler.

I really liked the book and felt the tv show started promisingly (S1&2 were good) and then they absolutely fucked the ending Warnock I feel knowing this ahead of time will lead to less seethe.

The show was a total let down compared to the book for me.

I've read a few folk saying the same as Picard. Probably patch it. The boy that plays John Smith is some actor. Not really seen him in much. Carried that show though.

Still watching suits, didn't realise there's 9 fecking seasons!
It's addictive but predictable, Most episodes end up with Harvey specter walking away and doing a wee side turn. 
Plenty of burds in tight skirts to keep you going though.

Don't know how folk can watch pish like that. What do they get up to? Shag each other and kick about offices?


Half way through Season 2 of Star Trek:NTG - around the time when the show really kicks on.  Piggy  I had never watched any of Season 1 before, a mixture of  Crowe and Monty Chuckle but mainly. Monto

I watched the first few seasons of suits, I found it quite enjoyable. You'd hate it if you're an actual lawyer I suppose. I gave up after season 5 when they'd clearly rinsed every idea they had and run the "photographic memory" concept into the ground.
