Blackspider: Either the director is an amateur or he/she tried an experiment which wasnt really successful. Even if 7-10 was plot- driven, you can just abandon the plot from episode one and then dump it on us in ep. 7, there should be continuity so the viewer doesnt feel like he/she is watching another show( cos that's how I felt) . |

Achilles100:What i think is that it can't be destroyed without it bearer, if you remember the woman was destined to be the vortex, just that desire manipulated events to make her grand daughter one. Besides the librarian already said the vortex cannot be controlled, stopped but killed, implying that they have been attempts to do it without killing |

Blackspider: Okay, thanks. |

Achilles100:if I remember correctly, EP 1 was all about stopping the Corinthian and him wanting independence, meaning he wanted dream dead. EP 2-6 showed him trying but failing, EP 7 through 10 was him finding out that there was something that could destroy the dreaming world hence giving him the ability to physically kill dream. I would agree that song was a drag, i skipped all of it, i no get energy for d nonsense . Also worth noting is either in EP 4 or 5, desire was trying to comfort their twin by causing trouble for dream. Meaning there is a plot line to close which 7-10 did, by showing it was desire all along pulling the strings, who is to say it wasn't desire that made the baron want to capture death knowing fully well dream would be d victim? |

Blackspider: I'm all saying, the entire season 1 wasn't glued perfectly in my opinion, 1-6 felt glued together and 7-10 felt glued together. That's just my view. |
Re: What Series Are You Watching Now? Part 2 by Blackspider: 4:09pm On Aug 09, 2022 |
Achilles100:Hey, I am not saying it was perfect, even i felt like it was a two parter not firmly glued together with the first half been the better half, all i am saying is that there is a plot thread linking the two halfs(desire and Corinthian). My issue is dismissing a series because of one or two gay scenes, that's not criticism but bias. 3 Likes |

Blackspider: I never dimissed it cos of the gay scenes, where they unnecessary? Yes. but its Netflix, everyone should expect that from them posturing LGBTQ+ propaganda from them. I'm rating low cos the end was a letdown from the mini-finale in episode 6. Episode 6 was more of a finale that episode 10. |
Re: What Series Are You Watching Now? Part 2 by Blackspider: 4:24pm On Aug 09, 2022 |
Achilles100:I wasn't talking about you, it was the others that their only bias was because of the LGBT scenes. You gave your criticism which I read through. EP 6 was the finale no doubt but ask yourself this had it ended there, would you be as excited as you are to see a second season? EP 7 -10 was setting up a second season. Besides they haven't cast derilium, destiny and destruction |

Blackspider:I can confirm I was more excited for a second season before episodes 7-10 As for the LGBTQ iish, there have been other shows with it...but here it was almost as if 90% of the cast was gay, trans or non binary 3 Likes 1 Share |

Blackspider:"Assumption is the mother of all fvck ups". So here you are saying I don't watch anything from Netflix just because I mention I haven't watched some shows you mentioned. Anyhow, I hope you landed on that empty head of yours when you jumped into that nonsense conclusion. So please continue fvcking yourself. Its seem its the only thing that gives your life meaning, bloody wanker_. |

Re: What Series Are You Watching Now? Part 2 by abduleez1(m): 7:09pm On Aug 09, 2022 |
Blackspider: I'm presently at episode 6 but in the comics Desire has a willingness to kill Dream (Morpheus) even tho it's for fun. Dream and Desire have a love gate relationship. He kinda technically succeeded tho when The Three came for Dream's head when he spilled his kin blood. |
Re: What Series Are You Watching Now? Part 2 by Nobody: 7:13pm On Aug 09, 2022 |
Silentgroper:Oh sorry. |
Re: What Series Are You Watching Now? Part 2 by abduleez1(m): 7:14pm On Aug 09, 2022 |
Blackspider: The funny thing about the Lucifer complaints and maybe Desire is that it's the non comic readers who don't know fvvk about The Sandman universe that complains Wokeness. Lucifer is androgynous and can appear as he wants. Same as Dream. Desire is also sexless. She acted the Lucifer role perfectly and I wasn't disappointed. I say this having read some of the original comics. 2 Likes |

Baddestguyp:I agree that for you EP 1-6 was your definitive season ending hence your distaste for 7 upwards. But bar the increase gay scenes, aren't intrigued by what desire meant by he would draw blood or azareal wanting revenge. C'mon you are exaggerating, only 9 people were gay in the series, the barons son and his husband, Corinthian, vortex roommate, boogieman, one of the serial killer, Johanna and her girlfriend, and the owner of the hotel. Aren't you going to complain about having sex and a child for a ghost or is it because they are straight? 3 Likes |
Re: What Series Are You Watching Now? Part 2 by Blackspider: 7:21pm On Aug 09, 2022 |
abduleez1:i mean you can say that you didn't like the series because of the gay characters but dismissing it as trash is offensive because the show is highly comics accurate. Even some dialogue like when death was telling dream that she was there when the first life came to being and would be there when the last leaves, put the chair on the table and lock the universe. Like word for word accuracy. This is why I was highly defensive of the series. Nothing much was changed from the comics and people are still hating 2 Likes |

ShaqFu:can you make a sentence without insults, it's becoming childish. Thankio |
Re: What Series Are You Watching Now? Part 2 by abduleez1(m): 7:30pm On Aug 09, 2022 |
Blackspider: Yep... So far it is mostly comic accurate. Tho some light changes like the Gargoyle being sacrificed, it was a text or book with Dreams signature I think. And the battle at hell was between the demon Choronzon and Morpheus. Lucifer would defeat Dream in a game of wits but it's all good. Also it was Etrigan the Demon that welcomed Dream into hell when Flatterbloat refused him passage and trolling. Etrigan clearly led him to NADA. It was actually 72 years of imprisonment Dream was with the Burgesses and not the over a century narrative. So far the few changes were made for progression of the story. Comic readers have little to complain about. I am not too keen on changing John Constantine for Johanna but I understand cos of WBs refusal to release the Chainsmoker. Jenna Coleman was perfect in that role and played the character really well. Nothing to complain of. So far, it's peak TV. |
Re: What Series Are You Watching Now? Part 2 by Blackspider: 7:36pm On Aug 09, 2022 |
abduleez1:Yeah, dream did mention it that Lucifer, the angels and the presence were the only being more powerful than they are and by miles. I did like the battle as it was all imagination, physical or magical battle Lucifer would have won. Jenna Coleman's character was the ancestor of John since JJ Abrams has decided to lock John down. The series is really good not watchman level but a great start |

Re: What Series Are You Watching Now? Part 2 by ShaqFu: 8:05pm On Aug 09, 2022 |
Blackspider:I actually made sense with my first post concerning the series, but you lack sense that's why you can't see the sense I made. Simply put, you're a senseless wanker_. |
Re: What Series Are You Watching Now? Part 2 by Baddestguyp(m): 8:11pm On Aug 09, 2022 |
Blackspider:I didn't care about Desire at all As for Azareal, like I said, that took place in the last moments of episode 10 which I recommended And how many times do I have to state that episodes 7-10 were bad... Maybe the episodes are for set up...doesn't change the fact they are bad |
Re: What Series Are You Watching Now? Part 2 by Baddestguyp(m): 8:15pm On Aug 09, 2022 |
abduleez1:I don't have complaints about the white-haired (you know who) My issues were more plot and directing related... Even in my review, the WOKENESS was one of the last issues I touched... And I have no plans to read woke comics since y'all said the source material is similarly woke... surprisingly I saw statements on reddit that the comics were nowhere as woke as the show |
Re: What Series Are You Watching Now? Part 2 by Blackspider: 8:17pm On Aug 09, 2022 |
Baddestguyp:can I ask why you didn't care about desire? |
