Almost 2 years plus after giving us the season 1 of Severance. Season 2 is yet to be out. They'll make you forget everything before the next season comes out. Why I hate watching series with just 1 season.

I think there was a teaser trailer last year or so. But e don dey too tey sha. Na to go YouTube watch roundup of season one before starting the second season when it comes out.

Fallout

I have seen my fair share of post apocalyptic series from The Last of us, Twisted Metal, Silo to mention a few.

Every show sets its theme from early on whether it's a serious show(The Last of Us and Silo) or themed lightly(Twisted Metal).

Fallout tried to be a mix of both and failed woefully at both, especially at the comic side( the Vault 4 episode).

Both Lucy and Maximus acting to me felt amateurish, hell plenty of the casts and the way they handled their lines/scenes felt force. The other exemplary acting was The Ghoul, not perfect but head above the rest. Wilzig also, was perfect for his role. Too bad his character didn't last.

Even the Norm storyline that was suppose to let the audience in on what was happening was dragging on, too slow.

Overall, I didn't enjoy the time it was set in. I still have the last episode to go anyway. Hopefully the end will elevate the show.

5/10.

Just concluded it and personally I do not recommend for anyone. Even the last episode that was supposed to be emotional, the acting didn't just enter abeg.

Wasn't moved at all.

The casting director should be sacked.

While the acting was poor IMO, the soundtrack was on point in 2 scenes. Like perfect.

What a difference a day makes and another song I can't remember

Two episodes out, missing girl case, Colin Farrell starring, making sense. I like the cinematography also, mixing old movies scenes with the current show.

Ripley

I don't know whether is the MC Andrew Scott I don't like(Since he played Moriarty in Sherlock Holmes, never like him) or the Black and White Cinematography that the whole show was shot in that is putting me off.

Hopefully I'll give it a shot later.

Invincible season 2............7/10


And the whole swollen eye trend was getting on my nerves


Not just swollen eye, swollen left eye. There was a scene where both Invincible and his mother both had their left eye swollen. I was like WTF!!, is this something kind of fetish for the animator? There are other ways to indicate someone has taken a beating.

So so swollen left eye.

Never really get why men of immense wealth like Roderick Usher or wisdom like Toranaga will always have one profoundly stupid male child.

Either a drug addiction or just gutter level stupid.

It's always portrayed in movies/series like this.

Lakesman445:


... And the fact he didn't alot any of his property to his son rather to his grand children when he was writing his will indicates that he already made up his to sacrifice his son for the crimson sky to work

He knows that Nabushige's nephew has a way to say words that spurs his son up. So it's possible he has already told that one to instigate his son to attack his brother.

And maybe with the hope that his son is successful? Idk , that Nagakado hardly succeeds in anything, cos you can't plan for him slipping and dying.

Or

1. His knows his son can't succeed, if his brother kills his son, it's an act of war been a guest of Toranaga.

2. If unseemly his son succeeds, the son will have to perform seppuku for killing a regent , and in a stranger way gain control of his brother's army.

Either way his son is toast.

If you like the 'Warrior' type of series, I believe you will like 'The Brothers Sun'. Lots of fighting.

Movies I watched this week -

Nymphomaniac - 7/10 - I was curious about watching NC-17 and X rated movies that are artforms but not porn and this movies stands out above every thing else. Better than Showgirls in my opinion. It is about a nymphomaniac and her sexcapades. Apart from all the many sex scenes where we could see her sucking stuff without blurring anything. It is just like porm but with a story. Mia Goth, Uma Thurman and the Dune guy is even in this movie. Nuts!

It's new. It's hard watching Giancarlo Esposito as a struggling family man, also a driver. Never thought I will see him sparring with a sand bag also.

It's like watching Pete Edochie struggle for daily bread in a nollywood movie. E nor fit enter.

Type casting? Maybe, but it is what it is. He isn't the kind to be involved in the crime, he is the one to send people to commit the crime.

Everything is just inverted in this show, the "Boss" is a really young guy, the protagonist old man.

If the old man is say Denzel or even Liam Neeson. I can see it.

Giving Dark vibes. The mindfcuk not as complicated as Dark, but it's there. And this last episode WTF!!!

What was that that woke up in space?

Just saw that this episode 8 is the last episode for season 1. cry

While the buildup was really really slow, I became thoroughly engrossed in the last 3 episodes.

Overall rating for season 1: 7/10.

I might also add that, the Japanese language is such a reassuring and affirmative language that any monologue or dialogue in it, seems to carry a much much more deeper meaning than it's literal translation in English.

The language exudes a profound elegance and an uncanny air of positivity that i cannot explain.

It and German, might be the language i would be willing to learn if the opportunity arises.

Excuse me and every other person. Elegance and German isnt a sentence that goes together in my opinion. German that sounds like you chewing hard pebbles?

There was several videos of words in other languages and German, and German somehow makes those same words a do or die affair in pronunciation.

Language that makes sex sounds so unappealing.

The lady ochaba had it wrong. Lord ishido was even surprised.

Same was mariko father was accused wrongly ..toranaga was accused wrongly

Hopefully next episode, they will clear up the stories, make we know who is telling the truth or who is lying.

But I am currently unable to comprehend how the alliance between the regents and Lady ochiba come to be.

The plot of the story was that Toranga was for the heir. He stands in his support, how did the regents now instantly allied with the heir.

Something didn't add up

The lie was purported between Lady Ochiba and Ishido cos they know saying Toranaga is against the heir will make him public enemy number one.

Or what if Lady Ochiba is actually secretly his ally...
But rather she's just helping him get justification to go to war...

Lady Ochiba is running in the shadows...
She can easily play both sides and put the blame on Ishido

Ishido is just like Yabushige, people pleaser without real power of their own. Lady Ochiba is just using words to confuse Ishido.
