If she left them alive she'd draw much less attention. Also even if she didn't want to reproduce with them, they'd still probably help her with important alien shit as long as she strung them along a bit. If she didn't kill them it would also make it much easier for me to jerk off to the movie. What a dumb b-word

The lead character was literally neurodivergent. I've seen people praising her performance but I thought she was terrible lol.

The set up was moderately interesting where you have a serial killer killing entire families without being in the house. But then at the end they explain in an exposition dump that it was literally magic.

Nic Cage was decent but he has a total of like five minutes of screen time.

I will say the cinematography was good. It's a beautifully shot movie and it does a good job of building tension with how they frame scenes.

!ringbearers !kino !bookworms I haven't hate/watch it yet but there are clips of the first scenes on YouTube.

Adar and the orcs stab Sauron and "kill" him. Then Sauron's body turns into the symbiote and returns as "Halbrand" lmao.

!sophistry and religious gimmick-posters what do you guy think?

"It's also a psychological thriller," Payne adds of the season's arc. Sauron is forced to take new form now that Galadriel has warned her allies not to trust Halbrand. He transforms into Annatar, the Lord of Gifts, to combat this, a guise Vickers says is specially designed to lure in Celebrimbor (Charles Edwards). Annatar manipulates the master craftsman into making rings for Dwarves and Men, an act that will make "Celebrimbor descend into madness and Eregion hurtle towards potential destruction," Payne reveals

Lmao, a "psychological thriller"

Galadriel and Sauron share the deepest connection to another being either of them has ever experienced, a fact that haunts them both in the new episodes. What they share "is greater than romance," Vickers explains. "Their connection runs far deeper than anything surface level."

WTF is this shit?

Really makes me think. Sometimes I actually succeed and you tards laugh at me, and I'm no genius so must be stealing it from somewhere.

A lot of this is British but it's not the "oh, they're so dry" bullshit. "I'm proving I'm a hipster because I'm laughing at something that isn't funny." No they actually write good stuff. Like so many of my posts I point to the actual meaning of "virtue signalling". Taking a position that's so crazy that it identifies you with one side or the other.

Saki, Red Dwarf, Newsradio, Shakespeare. If anyone actually has any respect for me (I'm afraid this might be happening ) I'm just ripping off better people from earlier generations. If you're halfway decent at writing you can do it too, you just don't know it. Also a heck of a lot of middle school calling each other cute twinks until the teacher arrived.

Red Dwarf is a great place to start though because we can relate to it so well. Everyone loves curry. We're all worthless losers. And we're going through adventures in space.

Smoke me a kipper f-slurs I'll be back in the morning.

The Latinx are great at explaining zoomer speak.

Chinese insist this version is better:

Of course it's not but it's still way better than Burger Starshit or Song of Butt & Balls or whatever the frick Europoors make (depressing Scandinavian dectective shows? IDK- who cares?)

Don't ever say ol' Redactor is against free speech. Force of Evil is one of my favorite movies even if it was made by commies. Director Abraham Polonsky was openly a card-carrying commie. John Garfield was probably a cryptocommie. In '48 that didn't mean you posted furry stuff and your pronouns on Twitter, it meant you were part of a global organization working to make Stalin ruler of the world. But I still don't want people like that blacklisted if they're making art that's supporting American values.

The line about "you're in it for $35 a week" really hit me hard. In my younger days I worked for a company that did business with another company that was basically a scam. I didn't choose for our company to work with them, but it wasn't up to me. I ended up working very closely with these people. I didn't have a lot of moral qualms about it at first. My coworkers, people I really respected, had been doing this for several years and they didn't seem to have a problem with it. Then at the end of the project they gave me a Hallmark greeting card thanking me for my hard work. How sweet. Inside it they left a "tip". I wasn't a f-ing waitress or something, this wasn't an industry where you get tips. (And way before this new thing of everyone even at fricking Subway asking for tips.) So I understood very well what they meant. They were telling me that if I continue to just go with the flow I'll keep getting a little more cash. I thought of that line in the movie and how people degrade themselves for small amounts of money and justify it because they're not directly committing the crime themself. And of course I kept the money anyway.

!pinoypride I imagine this is like when someone running for local office hands out campaign fliers and they've got a $5 bill stapled to the back. Also note that we had jueteng in America back then, we just called it "policy", "numbers", etc. It's totally different now tho. Each state has a lottery which is legal and sold openly in every store. They constantly show ads highlighting how the state's cut of the gambling money is used for rural infrastructure, green energy, kids with cancer, etc. to appeal to every segment of society. I sure am glad that we're so civilized now and gambling is actually a good thing now.

The one person here who actually was on the same page with me about the whole gambling issue was my neighbor Penny. I hope she's still around on an alt.

I like musicals and silly edgelord shit. I really want this movie to be good and it wouldn't take a lot for me to like it.

I guess it's kinda stylish visually, but most of the songs are either just rhythmic talk-singing or directionless sludge with no memorable melodies or lyrics. "Rock opera" is not an excuse to dodge writing decent songs. Neither is being a campy goth edgelord musical. You need something more than a premise!

I just watched the fricking last episode and I have no idea what it was fricking all about.
