By blackace Go To PostThe unwritten rule of TV is if the character's name is Nate, they are annoying.
There was an incident—probably a concluding incident, for me. I received a bulky parcel, through Federal Express, that arrived here in my sedate little living room. It turned out to contain a powder blue barbecue apron with a hydrogen symbol on the front.Lindelof is going to jump off a cliff
And a frank letter from the showrunner of the Watchmen television adaptation, which I hadn’t heard was a thing at that point. But the letter, I think it opened with, “Dear Mr. Moore, I am one of the bastards currently destroying Watchmen.” That wasn’t the best opener. It went on through a lot of, what seemed to me to be, neurotic rambling. “Can you at least tell us how to pronounce ‘Ozymandias’?” [Another of the vigilante characters in Watchmen.] I got back with a very abrupt and probably hostile reply telling him that I’d thought that Warner Brothers were aware that they, nor any of their employees, shouldn’t contact me again for any reason. I explained that I had disowned the work in question, and partly that was because the film industry and the comics industry seemed to have created things that had nothing to do with my work, but which would be associated with it in the public mind. I said, “Look, this is embarrassing to me. I don’t want anything to do with you or your show. Please don’t bother me again.”
When I saw the television industry awards that the Watchmen television show had apparently won, I thought, “Oh, god, perhaps a large part of the public, this is what they think Watchmen was?” They think that it was a dark, gritty, dystopian superhero franchise that was something to do with white supremacism. Did they not understand Watchmen? Watchmen was nearly 40 years ago and was relatively simple in comparison with a lot of my later work. What are the chances that they broadly understood anything since? This tends to make me feel less than fond of those works. They mean a bit less in my heart.
While I admie his commitment to doing the whole bit of "can't say anything" in (Snowflake I think) it still does go on too long and even seeing it live it's a lot (I kind of dry gagged).
Yeah that bit really dragged Snowflake down for me
I get that he likes leaning into the criticisms and going meta with it, but sometimes he does it to the point that it really does make his act worse, and I've never seen it as evident as it was in that bit. If I rewatched it I'd skip through it tbh.
Tornado's flow is much better I think, only part where it threatened to stall was the Dave Chapelle rider, and he moved on from it swiftly enough.

By s y Go To PostNot sure how but I'm watching Father Ted. British comedy sure is….Yen incoming
Think the first couple of episodes of Father Ted are pretty weak compared to how good it is until the end of series 2. Never really cared for Father Jack or Mrs Doyle.
Finished the Beavis and Butt-Head revival
Good easy watch. Mike's still got it and Nice Butthead is one of the funniest episodes including the old show. Also surprised how much animation there is lol
Never thought we would see Beavis and Butt-Head watch cold steel

Watched the first two episodes of the peripheral.
Yeaaaah, didn't capture me enough and probably won't continue it.

By DiPro Go To Posti watched 2 dragon house episodes, they were good. i heard it's downhill from there?There is a thread m7 https://slaent.com/thread/2464042/
By DiPro Go To Posti watched 2 dragon house episodes, they were good. i heard it's downhill from there?Nah
Ppl are complainers. 8th episode is best in the season
Looking forward to this
Looks like The Challenge but all elimination matches instead of reality drama bs

By Laboured Go To PostFather Ted has two major problems in Graham Linehan and also the canned laughter.Linehan has gone so far down the TERF/alt right rabbit hole he's now openly begging for the Tories to enact policies against trans people. This man fucking hated the Tories and all they stood for not too long ago.
By Yurtlicious Go To PostJust read Alan Moore's interview lmaoooHBo watchmen?
Watchmen was absolutely incredible wasn't it
That was incredible.

By Yurtlicious Go To PostJust read Alan Moore's interview lmaoooIt's its own thing, but I can't blame him for being pissed off at every iteration from here to eternity when he views it as his stolen intellectual property. From the interview he seems to have a baseline understanding of how it turned out though. I imagine he's somewhat extremely online even if he's not accessible
Watchmen was absolutely incredible wasn't it
He's lived in the same town all his life and hardly ever leaves the continent
three episodes into dahmer. it's not very good. i don't care for any of it.
i may as well just watch the docu series that's also on netflix.

is hbo max unstable for anyone else? it's the only streaming service that sometimes crashes.
i'm using the tv app.

max TV app sucks. Samsung version became unusable. Switched to ps5, night and day. No problems
Netflix TV app works great. Guess wbd don't give a shit

By domino Go To PostWatchmen show was fantastic. I hope they dont make any more just leave it as isit was such a nice surprise

ahh, i see.
i use tv apps for everything because it beats having to turn on the ps5, i guess, but i think i'll switch to the ps5 for hbo.
the tv app gets really sluggish, too.
I was using my ps5 for apple cause of the free trial and noticed how responsive it was in comparison. Eventually max stopped working entirely on the 2016 4k and I just switched everything over
However, I did get the ps5 media remote and it stopped working after a month. Out of the box new from eBay, like, full batteries, buttons don't work. That was shitty. Now I'm using a controller and tv remote combo, at least the console recognizes it after it's turned on. No home button tho
Don't know whether to waste more money on a ps5 media remote. looked online and I'm not alone at all. Surprised they put out something so low quality
