are you referring to the overall level of violence in the show? well that's a concern I have too...if we're talking about constant graphic torture and mutilation scenes I just may have to forgo watching GOT

*makes mental note*

I was referring to the storytelling/politics and how fascinating it is. You'll be totally in it. But yeah, there's all sort of stuff in it. Just try watching one season. Then see if you can take another one. And another one.

I continued Mr. Robot season 2. It seems I stopped the episode before it got interesting again.

Very well into it again. Shall finish it tomorrow.

It is cringey. I'll give you that. One character in particular is the most unlikeable character I can remember.

A lot of is like listening to a conspiracy theory-cum-self help book.

The second season beyond where I quit is good though. And the end of the first season. It all builds well.

I can't believe that I was actually on episode 5 of Season 2... I thought I was on episode 1 with how dull I remembered it being.

It does have some very good scenes. Two I can remember in S1, a few in S2.

i like mr. robot since it has successfully made me think it's another the underdog against the world theme

yet it's a whole grandeur picture of the world rolls :)

I finished westworld. Think the strongest point of the series was the character development, also the idea of it is unique and thought provoking.

I kinda disliked the maze revelation, felt they went the predictable route with it.

All in all, it was a great first season. Although I have a feeling season 2 is not gonna match up.

OK that doesn't sound as bad as I had heard. I was thinking it was like the girl with the dragon tattoo movie...

 
which not only had a graphic rape scene but then she returned for revenge and played a video of the rape in the background

girls cheered and applauded that scene in the theater I watched it ... felt really weird.

Thoughts on Sherlock?

1st episode got a bit too actiony for me, 2nd episode was a little messy, but it was very entertaining.

watched 3 episodes of GOT

so far it's not like breaking bad, where after the first episode I was completely hooked

and it's a bit gross for me with the maggots and gut spilling and all the dead bodies (human and animals, like for eating)

but the relationships and societal structures and politics are definitely interesting (good call jasper!)...plus I am freaking out about the dragon eggs and the direwolves

anyway, I'm assuming it will only get better so going to keep watching! :thumbsup:

Which movie?..
I love twists
Click to expand...

we were posting about girl with the dragon tattoo

it has some plot twists, but when I wrote twisted, I meant in the sense of being wicked or evil

would definitely recommend the movie :thumbsup:

It's gets better. And better. And better. First season is more enjoyable after you've finished the whole series and go for second watch.

Also do tell what you think is happening in the the episodes and what you predict for future. That's part of the fun. As well as how you memorize the characters when you can't call them by the names yet.
