    The Dragon Prince

    Since Xadia declared war, they can be seen as invading. Again, no issue with them shooting the dragon. My issue was putting the town in danger. You keep forgetting that. The town also had no militia, or anyone in command willing to fire on it (maybe they had sense and knew it was stupid to do...

    The Dragon Prince

    They have defenses set up in case they do attack - that is just prudent. What again are you trying to prove here? Just because a gun owner has a gun, he's good to shoot anyone who wanders onto his property? Are you that guy?

    The Dragon Prince

    I'm saying one Kingdom has declared war, not all Kingdoms, on Xadia. Would you like it if a foreign nation invaded your homeland because another nation declared war on them? Wouldn't you be like "Hey now, that's between Katolis and Xadia, leave my people out of it." Your problem is you are...

    The Dragon Prince

    The garrison was established (from what i remember) because of the Katolis expedition that killed the Magma Giant. They feared retaliation and set up a garrison in the main point of ground entry. Notice they have nothing to stop Dragons? Because they cannot. The Elves have been there since the...

    The Dragon Prince

    Are you referencing the one specific bad guy that has all mentions of him erased upon viewing? Yea, good blanket statement to throw out there over one very specific issue. How about we wait and see what the connection with Aaravos(?) is before jumping to conclusions? I feel like a lot of this...

    The Dragon Prince

    I called Claudia and Soren assholes for attacking it. They were not justified in their aggression. The dragon was in the wrong in what way? There are no rules stating the Dragon cannot be there - there is no such thing as a no fly zone in this story. Xadians want humans OUT of Xadia. Humans have...

    The Dragon Prince

    Wait what? Humans lived in peace with Xadians - they were never said to be oppressive? They were just magical. Being inherently magical doesn't make you oppressive, but it can feel oppressive to non magical creatures. I'm sure Dragons/Elves had a superiority complex to the same degree humans...

    The Dragon Prince

    I'm not second guessing its motives, you are. I only said it was stupid to provoke it, which empirically it was - it resulted in the town being attacked. I also am not claiming it was malicious, you are supposing it was, because why else would a dragon be circling overhead for days? Well, we...

    The Dragon Prince

    I think we are viewing this through two totally separate lenses I agree - you are seeing this as an oppressive main state (Xadia) holding down the lesser people in Human-land by denying access to the wonders of magic. I simply see it as 2 separate nations living their lives and tending to...

    The Dragon Prince

    You act like this show is done and we aren't 2/7ths of the way through the story. How about you hold your judgment and "bad storytelling" until the series is finished? Do you think you can go hang around a Brown Bear den and as long as you didn't shoot at it, the mama bear would just be chill...

    The Dragon Prince

    No, from the POV that not every character is apologetic - and honestly I don't really think they are apologetic either - I think they are seeing war in their history and how little it has solved and working for another solution. Whoa whoa, hangon, the King did what was right for his Kingdom at...

    The Dragon Prince

    I understand what you are saying, but there can't ONLY be 3 dark magic users ever. The split between Xadia and the Humans happend 1000(?) years ago. Viren and Claudia might be the sucessors to previous Dark Magic users, but there have been at least 9-10 generations of them from the very first...

    The Dragon Prince

    Other than the main cast (Callum and Ez) who else is tripping over themselves? The King knew they were coming and made peace with the consequences of his actions. Self reflection on his deeds isn't intrinsically bad, and if more people did it everyone would be better off. His wife told him it...

    The Dragon Prince

    IIRC Xadia declared war / pushed the humans out of the magic lands because a) humans were practicing Dark Magic, which involves killing the local wildlife for magic essence and 4 months(?) or so before the first episode b) they killed the Dragon King, which hasn't been shown. Lithose you wrote...

    Batwoman

    Bahahahahah. Sorry, I'm fine with female leads, strong female actors, and stories that contain them. I dont care for my shows to put their overarching wymmin-power messaging emblazoned on the soles of their hot iron shoe treads and then step on my neck with said shoes to get their message...

    Life (2017)

    Thought this was ok but not great. For all their firewall procedures they acted like rere's for the majority of this movie. After losing half the crew and noticing it cocoons around flares why didnt they just encapsulate it like they did in the final act escape pods but in a container? Jettison...

    I'm surprised humanities last and final hope to avert judgment day is still a cis white male. Edit: or is John Connor no longer the messiah? It's been a confusing ride.

    Yea during first day shoots of s2 she allegedly walked up and laid it out on the table and threatened to walk if it wasnt handled appropriately. It is odd that they found no wrong doing however, she initiated all of this including leaving the cast if it wasnt investigated, dunno why she'd...

    Saw it, was expecting... something more than I got. I guess I enjoyed the experience but where I would recommend interstellar for the jaw dropping space scenes and gut wrenching consequences of their actions, I cant even recommend this as a spend money on this film. I enjoyed the ride and the...

    Wheel of Time

    I mean literally every major town has a form of women's circle which is the "woman behind the man" of town politics. Females are set up in this world to be haughty towards men. That's not individual personalities, that's how they (all women) are written in this series. Doesnt make them cunty...

    Wheel of Time

    I guess your definition of cunty and mine differ. Most women in this series are depicted as scheming and intelligent, with Aes Sedai being the apex of that. I never got a cunty vibe from Egwene or Elayne - full of themselves at times but not to the point where you cant stand them. Headstrong...

    Wheel of Time

    Moraine wasnt cunty? Neither was Egwene. Only one that was hard to stomach 24/7 was nyaneave. All the Aes Sedai were full if themselves, but that comes with the wielding-the-one-power territory I think.

    Wheel of Time

    Honestly so much happens in WoT over so many books unless they plan on dethroning Supernatural for total seasons and episodes, they'll probably be doing a LOT of trimming on the story.

    This is like people arguing for higher categories for hurricanes. There is no cat6+ category because 157+ mph winds are considered catastrophic. There is no higher tier of shit for any of these prequel movies. They are all category 5 garbage.

    Carnival Row

    I mean, yours isnt? Great show, glad to read the Black Ravens will have more to do in S2 as it seems like the story plodded forward and forgot about them. Called the bad guy with the wife, some good twists. I dunno if it's just me but Orlando Bloom doesnt compel me as a romantic, not in the...

    The Boys

    I really wonder what the higher ups at Vought have/can do - there was actual worry or hesitance on Homelander's face when he crumpled his talking points up and Stillwell mentioned it was from Edgar himself. Probably the only time in the whole first season I've seen him do a double take.

    This was amazing. Hands down amazing. Lots of gore, but not over the top. Look forward to what they do with it for Season 2- having a shitty Superman has got to be the worst. At least there is Batman and Kryptonite in the DC universe.
