Uncle Boogeyman posted:it skipped over the Atlantic City conference and the assassination of Ace Rothstein, two of the most dramatic real life events involving nearly all of the real life characters in the show, so we could get half a season worth of flashbacks with an awful uncanny valley young Buscemi impersonator telling us stuff that had already been established. insane descision. I will never, ever, ever get the decision to turn a John Goodman style politician into a shady, weedy dime-store criminal. They have this whole "You can't be half a criminal" discussion with show Nucky, when real Nucky was 100% a politician. The crime was just one more thing he controlled and used for power. Like the real Nucky was already a larger than life figure, they actually toned him down and made him more banal for a tv show. Baffling.

Like legitimately if they go forward with their super racist show or give them a Star Wars I can only assume these guys suck the best dick in Hollywood, because holy poo poo would nobody expect them to be competent writers or producers.

ZeeBoi posted:Seven seasons beforehand that led to this. Lmao just lmao Well to be fair like 3 seasons worth of material had a plan, another 2-ish were their interpretations of a plan, and the rest was them wildly making poo poo up.

Collapsing Farts posted:I also thought the other white walkers were autonomous and of the same "species" as the night king but just soldiers but apparently they instantly die if the night king die? That didn't make sense to me They were done with that plot so it needed to end.

WampaLord posted:All I remember about the ending of BSG is the montage at the end implying that real world humans are right now on the path to creating cylons because Japan built Wappy Dog. Boston Dynamics is taking it's time, but by God I will live to see a racist bi-pedal machine be super racist in downtown Boston.

The defining achievement of modern robotics will be finding a way to program an algorithm even more racist than Curt Schilling.

It's the nexus of all life. Don't need much more than that.The only conflict is that the Man in Black really, really wants to leave the island, but his rear end in a top hat brother Jacob tied him to it for eternity [He didn't mean to, he's just a loser gently caress up]. Because of this the only way he can leave the island is to sort of, you know, threaten the fabric of existence. It's not even like he did anything particularly wrong during his mortal life other than.....try to leave the island, and kill a crazy woman that slaughtered a bunch of innocent people. And he's not so much evil as he is totally jaded about the value of human existence. Really the plot of Lost is that Jacob is a loving moron, and his brother is kind of a sadistic rear end in a top hat. Also literally every single person that has ever come to the island had a real real bad time of it. I don't black bar any of that because it highlights an interesting point: This is the central conflict of the entire run of Lost, but it also has basically zero relevance on any part of Lost you will watch.

Happy Thread posted:There should be tons of modern examples of people who did their best work after becoming stupidly rich There are, but who cares? Like George Clooney made crazy gently caress off money from E.R., but continued to hustle for serious acting gigs well after the point he could gently caress off to an island he had personally fashioned out of gold. Great, what does that prove about anything? Or disprove? There's also the line of what constitutes "stupidly rich" for you. There are a bunch of authors over the 100 mil line that still put out great stuff after hitting it big. Is that enough for stupid richness? Is 50 mil? Where are we drawing the line?
