let us know ur ratings for watchmen




Seen both episodes... So far I am finding the show oddly fascinating... It is basically about racism, from what I gather from the first two episodes... So many twists, plenty suspense, and loads of crazy people... WTF


Looking forward to the next Episode ✔️


Would rate the series so far 7 / 10 ✔️✔️


Godfather of Harlem next on the Watchlist

That's exactly my point, yes. Narcos starkly and irrevocably glorified drug cartels. Pablo Escobar was a self-serving sociopath that killed over 3000 people, but Narcos painted him as a sympathetic figure, and goes further to paint drug cartels as robin fucking_ hoods. It depicted the sicarios as stouthhearted commandos that take no shit from anybody. It didn't stop there... It engendered an illusion of a corrupt and drug ridden Colombia, but Colombia was never really that, as any Colombian would tell you. It also depicted cocaine as an elite drug, etc, etc, etc.

Don't underestimate the influence these kind of shows have on popular culture. Recently in Mexico, a drug cartel outgunned the Mexican military in a gunfight - something that has never happened in the history of Mexico... where do you think they got the idea from? Narcos edified viewers that drug cartels have the potential to build their own private army by tapping into their tremendous resources. The Mexican drug cartel presently wield a sophisticated fire power that not even Mexican army could match.

The HBOs, Netflixes and the rest of the entertainment piranhas don't care about the damage narcotics-based/fraud shows have on the impressionable populace, they just want profit, and if glorifying the vices of a nation will give them that money, then so be it. It's not right, that's what I'm trying to verbally express.

you are right

It's a realistic depiction of mob life in Italy. It's brutal, horrifying, gritty, face-paced, unapologetic, and most importantly, not for the faint of heart.

I'm so hyped. Let's hope they bring their A-game like they always do. I joined GoT from season 4, this time around, I'm watching it as every episode drops. I can't pass through the hell of evading spoilers just to wait till each season is complete.

Let's hope HBO will keep DnD away from the script. Don't want another trainwreck.

As in. That dumpster fire soiled the whole series for me. I expected a better ending for Dany and Jon. They half-assed the whole season.

I'm just itching for George r.r Martin to finish " a song of ice and fire ". I know his ending will be epic.

No doubt, but he's certainly talking his sweet time, he pens at a snail speed. Should learn a thing or two from Stephen King on how to write fast.

We shouldn't be worried about those calamitous DnD if this rumor below is true. cry

Yeah, it's cancelled. It's not a rumor.

HBO must have weighed the pros and cons, and decided it's not worth their salt. More's the pity, for a prequel to GoT could have been epic.

There were two prequels?? Didn't know that.
Re: What Series Are You Watching Now? Part 2 by Nobody: 1:30pm On Oct 30, 2019
Okay, according to BBC, HBO axed one prequel and replaced it with another.

They were 5 prequels in development so they shot the pilot of the one for whitewalkers recently but I think it was below par so it got canceled.
The one about the Targaryen family origin (Dance of Dragons) is the one they decided to make and Miguel Sapochwik is among the showrunners with George R.R Martin being involved. The advantage this one has is that there's already a Dance of Dragons book.

The one with the Targaryen origin is Aegon's conquest which is not really an origin story... It's how they conquered westeros. Dance of dragons takes place after the death of the fifth Targaryen king and the book you are talking about is called "a dance with dragons"... It's the fifth book in the "a song of ice and fire" series

I admire your optimism but I believe anyone who helms any GOT prequel/sequel will still be affected by the changes in the western cultural zeitgeist which finds their way into creative endeavours and indirectly ruins them
