Bad Batch is basically just a side continuation of Clone Wars. I'm mostly OK with that cause Clone Wars is fun to watch and the lore is really great (when it focuses on that). Echo is basically gonna be Daredevil Season 3.5 to facilitate "New" Daredevil into the MCU web.

That said, if we get more Andor type projects, I'm all for it- no one asked for that and it's arguably the best thing Disney+ has produced

But also should blame the CEO types of those VFX companies for taking on said impossible deadlines. They're also at fault for just piling up a bunch of shit on their employees and intentionally taking a low bid in order to get the prestige for the work.

Prime has improved a lot after the new UI update but it still has some annoying issues.

Maybe giving them a lower budget will force them to actually get creative lol

no star wars more and more marvel

Robert Ludlum wrote Andor?

Yes very cringey

I'm watching it and enjoying it but to call it "awesome" is a stretch its some dumb fun to watch, but the constant cliffhangers repeats of the same thing and overall premise is kinda dumb

I just hate that it doesn’t even list quality or specs. No signs for HD, SD, 4K (though I don’t think 4K is even out for Paramount in Canada or UK anyway)

Are you sure the standalone app isn’t also available on top of those two options? You get the standalone and joined subs in most countries.

I’m using Crave on Apple TV and not seeing an issue. Why is it hated so much?

The first episode where they spend ages introducing everyone then do the hanging thing is the worst episode and a bad start. Quickly gets a lot better

My opinion on that was that the single hero shows were focused on smaller stakes that only needed one hero (+ sidekicks) to deal with. The team ups (a la Avengers) needed a world threatening enemy or situation to drive a need for the team to assemble. If Iron Man or Spider-Man could deal with it, then why bother?

The latest Doctor Strange movie was more like the earlier movies - it was a smaller threat that only really needed the involvement of Dr Strange and his colleagues.

Can you get it via Amazon? I was the same when using the actual app, but using it via Amazon isn't too bad.

I just hate how they don't have unique pictures for each TV show episode. Same title card on everything.

Why is Star Wars in quotation?

What about all the other generic desert planets like Jakku?

Dramatic? You tap the back/rewind and your starting over, but only after you watch the same four minutes of commercials you just saw

This is a paid service. It shouldn't be the equivalent of a budget ass, bottom shelf, early 90's, no rewind button having walkman.

The Marvel stuff just keeps getting worse

Fewer shows with a bit longer seasons would make me much happier.

I was amused to see the next season of a show I was watching appear to be available on the app, but had non-responsive episodes. I realised after a few minutes of clicking them and waiting for something to happen that they must be placeholders for episodes that Prime has the license for elsewhere but not here.

The clear sign of a show about to "jump the shark" is when you see Ted McGinley join the cast.He was called the patron Saint of shark jumping because it seems as soon as he was cast the show began its downward slide and was never the same.Probably a coincidence because he was a nice guy and a decent actor,but that was his curse for a long time.according to the book JUMP THE SHARK.

Another sign is when the romantic tension between the male and female lead leads finally to marriage (MOONLIGHTING) or when there's a vacation involved or they have a "very special episode".

One more CLASSIC shark jump came when they introduced "cousin Oliver " on the BRADY BUNCH. It upset the entire tic-tac-toe dynamic of the.show.

That's just a few examples of " jumping the shark ".

It's actually impressive they've kept this horrific UI around so long.

Nice, glad they fixed that. This was like Discovery Season 1 era of Paramount+.
