Join us as we discuss topics such as:
– So little occurred in episodes 5 and 6 that we cut our series by an episode
– Season 2 was only half a season’s worth of story
– A whole lot of putting things out there and not a whole lot of tying things up
– Felt like just a poor rehash of Season 1
– Drew poorly tells Dev about Korea’s mandatory public service
– Fever dream of a kid telling you a story. Story of “And Thens”.
– No excitement for Season 3
– Season 2 should have been 30 minute episodes to pace it better and cut out unneeded material
– It seems like the show is allergic to character growth
456:
– Motivations and actions are understandable
– He would not sacrifice the few for the sake of the many
– Lucks out on everything he does
Handsome Cop:
– Was even more useless in Season 2
– May have even ha negative/backward character progression
– Nothing was accomplished by HC or the paramilitary force
011:
– The season successfully got the audience to not care about 011
– Doesn’t seem to have a path to redemption
222:
– Needed more lines
230:
– TOP and Big Bang were awesome but Thanos was not
– Suspect that writers or producers changed TOP’s character to be campy and over-the-top
– Very akin to wrestlers moving to acting
120:
– Directly saw the outcome of her choices and was the only powerful moment in the season
– Was a great moment with even better acting
– Refreshingly did not treat the trans character as campy or comedic
380:
– Death season was pulled directly out of Saving Private Ryan
Blue Lock
– Drew an Dev talk about Blue Lock for 20 minutes
– Succeeded in every way Squid Game season 2 failed
– Motivations and character progression make sense
– Contains character growth
– Actually describe the purpose of bringing the people together
…
Thanos = Comedic and annoying Joffrey from Game of Thrones
