I couldn’t get past first episode of Discovery without hating the main character and turning it off.
 
Strange New Worlds actually feels like Star Trek, and I found some enjoyment in all 10 episodes of Season 1.

I liked the first episode of Discovery. It was as it went on I became very aware I wasn’t going to like the rest. The last straw was Spock being the adopted brother of Michael. It just felt pointless. I keep hearing SNW is really good, but I don’t know if I want to bother with it. Picard was frustrating, Lower Decks is braindead.

At the moment, this looks like it’s only getting a release in Germany, but other releases in other countries might follow!

I’m surprised at the poor reviews Amazon’s rings of power show is getting. I thought it would be a media darling considering how woke it is.

I thought critic reviews were really high.

I mean, not that RT is a particularly reliable source, as they’ll artificially alter some scores.

Amazon’s finally made an official statement on Rings of Power. If you don’t like their garbage, you’re a racist. They’ve gone further than usual by implying that Tolkien fans are just racist in general.

The star of The Woman King has declared buying a ticket to be mandatory. It’s interesting that her character seems to be against slavery, since the person she’s portraying was a slave owner and slave-taker in real life. The Dahomey that this movie appears to be shilling for was a slave state, and it took a British blockade and two wars against the French to finally stop it from being a slave state.

I already watched it. Kinda bland. I might give it another try if it gets dvds or blurays.  
The Hobbits are the best part. Cgi is as fakey as ever. Elrond… Is… Certainly an actor…

Elrond is like a reverse Stewie Griffin.
