Minor Mr.Robot inaccuracy,

ha(krz wouldn't use 3.2.1, they'd use 2.2.1 or 1.6.3

also, would they download such low bitrate torrents? xvid? yify? dvdrip?

Trek Picard Season 3, ah... hrrm... IDK.. not the trek formula, more like a very long Trek Movie, it's acceptable, buh, i'm not liking this low level squabbling in the plot.

Picard Season 3

I don't plan to watch it. The 1st season was barely watchable, but it did have a trajectory .... a sloppy and goofy one.

Season 2 seemed to me as if they took what would have been a single excellent episode and bloated it with meaningless crap to stretch it out to a ridiculous length.

Let me say again that what I like least is fighting (whether in space with phasers or on the ground with swords and fists - it's just plain boring) and endless examination of the inner minds of the characters. Concentrate on the big concepts!

And also, Picard was always one of my least favorite captains. Hey, let's make him a Borg! Hey, let's make him a robot! ugh

Bro, I SO hope they keep it a detective show for season 2. It's been so popular the budget is going to about quintuple for the pick up. The entire hook that kept me interested is the detective aspect of the show.

Also Jenna Ortega is devastatingly hot. God ****ing damn she is so hot. I'll still watch it for her, I guess.

Haha I don't even watch it for the chicks obviously but I can see why you'd say that xD . I agree though, the detective format really works here.

Finally started watching season 2 of The Bad Batch since there are enough episodes up on my server to warrant watching at my pace - Star Wars animated series are becoming some of my favorite to watch now. Also I will have to hold off on the New Mandalorian season since only the 1st episode was launched yesterday.

Currently im watching The Last of Us show! As a fan of The Last of Us video game series, I was both excited and apprehensive when I heard that it was being adapted into a television show. I wasn't sure if the show could capture the same emotional intensity and immersive world-building that made the games so beloved. But after watching the first season of the show on a https://soap2day-online.com/, I can confidently say that it exceeded all my expectations.

One of the things that the show does really well is capturing the complex and nuanced relationships between the characters. The dynamic between Joel and Ellie is at the heart of the show, and the actors portraying them (Pedro Pascal and Bella Ramsey, respectively) do an incredible job of bringing their characters to life. The show also introduces new characters and storylines that add depth and complexity to the world of The Last of Us.

Another aspect of the show that I appreciate is the attention to detail in the world-building. From the infected creatures to the various factions vying for power in the post-apocalyptic world, the show does an excellent job of bringing the world of The Last of Us to life. The production design, cinematography, and sound design are all top-notch, creating a gritty and immersive atmosphere that draws you in and doesn't let go.

Overall, I think The Last of Us show is an excellent adaptation of the video game series, and I'm excited to see where the story goes in future seasons. It's clear that the showrunners and creative team behind the series are fans of the games themselves, and they've done an incredible job of translating the games' themes and characters to the small screen. If you're a fan of The Last of Us, or just a fan of great storytelling and world-building, I highly recommend checking out the show.

Just watched that Marvel's Wat If.
It was a fun series, although I wish they went even crazier with the plotlines they choose from the comics. It's too bad they only have the licenses for like 1/3 of the comics, they had to change and adapt quite a lot to make it fit MCU.
Really loved Benecio Del Toro's Collector voice. Man, what an accent. Super cool the animated show got all the real-life counterparts to do the voice overs.

Just started watching it last night, 3 episodes deep now. It's only OK to my tastes. It's weirdly kind of slow for me, and the entire vibe just leaves me feeling fatigued after watching. I suppose in that respect it's much like the game. The set pieces are amazing, or should I say, the special effects. Really captured the look of the game very well. The writing is not particularly engaging, intelligent, or witty as I've come to expect from HBO shows, but it gets the job done for the material presented. The game was never about amazing dialogue anyway.
There's no way Pedro Pascal can pass for 35 in that first episode though.

I finished it last night. Never played the game, only saw some videos on youtube (I only play on PC).
I liked the whole vibe of the series, but yes, it was kinda slow pased, I thought it copied form the game?
Not terribly slow like TWD though. Scenery and acting was great, especially Pascal (girl was anoying).
Will there be second season? I dont know how the game ends (please dont tell me, I'm going to play it 31st March, when PC version comes out

The Core, easily 1 of the top 10 sci-fi films of all time, just came out on UHD,

Looks Awesome, Honestly, in the future, Film is going to look more high def than all the digital we're doing these days, because of the textures. 2K res composites just can't compare.

4k film-scans in motion honestly look like 8K because of temporal resolution.

All those cool disaster/end of the world movies from 90s are super cool.
When watched back then, we were looking at it like it could totally happen. Nowadays, when we grew up, all those stories are funny but not possible

I love those movies, I have a separate folder with all those.
The Core, Twister, Armageddon, Day after tomorrow, Deap Impact, Daylight, Dante's Peak, 2012, Volcano, Contagion, Chain Reaction, Missions to Mars, Event Horison...

To be honest, a lot may depend on my mood when I watch those movies. The difference between "totally stupid but enjoyable to watch" and "too stupid to be enjoyable to watch" is probably a thin and blurred line.

From your list, I did actually enjoy Twister, Deep Impact, and Contagion. I haven't seen all the others, but the ones I did mostly produced groans, although almost all movies like that have a few impressive and memorable scenes depicting the disasters themselves.

All the seasons were pretty good, except for season 4 which had literally nothing to do with Fargo. No money, no story links, didn't even take place in the same damn state or town namesake.

Oh yes! I never watched S4. Fargo Season 4 is crap, I only watched first 20 minutes of first episode and turned it off. I saw Chris Rock and said - oh no, not this clown!
Done.
Original movie and first 3 seasons are good. After that it was dead to me.
Waiting for S5, hopefully they will bring back its unique character.
