I don't really see how anyone can honestly believe that the episode was a 1/10. Even if you didn't like it there were lots of redeeming qualities that would bump it up a few points. The only reason to give it a 1/10 is to review bomb it and the only motivation for that is being against the content of the episode.

Would you rate the episode 1/10 or 6/10 based on your viewing?

I saw the episode, was not impressed at all. I have not played the Video Games or spoiled myself but Nick Offerman’s character being gay and him offing himself as soon as his partner decides to off himself was predictible af.

That is a good pick.

I’ve said it in other discussions, but I feel like I’ve seen someone that would be perfect for BG. That was before I saw TG:M. I think Glen Powell would be a really good casting choice. But I still feel like there’s another actor that I’m associating very strongly with my concept of BG.

The 1 star ratings jumped from 1% to 25% from one episode to the next. Given the outspoken criticism of the show for "going woke" from certain corners of the internet, its a pretty safe assumption.

That's what i woild ask for. Especially if you WFH. Tell them thats why you want more

i thought it was very well made and written. it works as a standalone episode but also thematically builds upon the overall story and Joel’s character arc.

i do think its a little overhyped though. id guess it gets lots of extra appreciation due to it unashamedly being a gay love and romance story and playing it completely straight as opposed to making a big deal out of it. which i think is dope, more people should see these things and realize that its normal and not a big deal.

The duo are putting a premium on screenplay writing, saying that would prevent the dreaded feeling of “superhero fatigue” and also give the projects a tonal and thematic difference from each other. Gunn called out the degradation of screenwriters in Hollywood and also said that the duo wanted to be respectful of the voice of filmmakers they were working with … up to a point.

“It’s not the Gunnverse, it’s not,” Gunn said. “It’s got to be all these different feels from all these different stories. That’s what makes it so fun. The stories are completely different and each has the individual expression of the writers and the director that are making those projects.”

Every Seinfeld character.

Tess asked him to. That's why. It was her dying wish.

Fortunately I ignore user ratings altogether.

Episode 3 was fantastic and if I didn’t know that I would follow world of moot of a user rating.

Honestly the show’s episodes are early 2000’s PiXAR level where It’s hard to think of it in terms of what’s best lol.

They’ve been stellar and 3 is likely going in my all time favorites.

No, I am assuming that when tens of thousands of non-viewers of a show take the time to rate an episode (that they haven't watched) 1/10, they are doing that for a reason. I doubt it takes a genius to figure out what that reason is.

You're assuming because someone doesn't like what you like they're homophobic?

The Last of Us episode 3 obviously!

/s

If it’s filler im hoping for more of that, what scares me about this show is that it can fall into repetition, but this was an amazing way to write a story and add to the main plot, it’s ok to praise things but people like you love to “not get things” when they get too mucch praise, so you can have your moment too i guess.

> The Green Lantern show that was in development hell was being produced by JJ Abrams.

It was being produced by Greg Berlanti, and the original pitch was a 'multigenerational story' that Gunn described as a space opera with Alan Scott Green Lantern in the 40's, Guy Gardner in the 80's, and Simon Baz/Jessica Cruz in modern day. Which hey, seeing some of those characters in live action would be cool but doing every Earth Lantern except the two most popular and the two that make for a really obvious buddy cop paring seemed like a bizarre choice. Eventually it was reworked to be a John Stewart show but Gunn has said that version of the show is 100% cancelled and Lanterns is a totally new project.

thank god. this show was terrible

Sorry I mean it’s on the Bell Fibe TV on demand section. Not sure if Rogers or other services their their own standalone service outside of cable box on-demand.

It’s gay so they’re overhyping it.

So the show will be about an antihero who is messy but compelling (like Don Draper and Tony Soprano) but creating a new version of that archetype, “through the lens of a Black, modern-day woman. I’m sold.

Name 20.

Since I was just reminiscing about it, "This Extraordinary Being" from Watchmen haunted me to my core.
