His gayness might end up being the key to their victory. No be Netflix again?
lol It will be the most obvious Netflix's thing to do, but they should know they just fumbled one of thier best ever titles. The stocks of the show has pullemeted. I doubt serious people, remembers this show past this year for a rewatch, certainly not me 🫶🏿

BlackManta:
If he came out as gay to his mom and brother, Mike, Lucas and Dustin too. It might be understandable.

But he came out in front of the whole group.

Some of them he has never interacted with before.

What is Erica, Steve, Murray, Hopper, Robin's girlfriend and El's long lost 'sister' doing in that room huh

Why do they need to know that you're gay huh
Coming out as gay in 1987? As a teen in a conservativeish town?

Stranger things is moving like GOT last season so far and this is the worst season to me

I won't bother watching Stranger Things, but I think that GOT scene made pretty good sense. Like the world is ending, and if I'm going to die, I sure won't die a virgin. 🤦

Spartacus: House of Ashur Episode 5.

The episode was absolute fire. Love the dialogue, the subtle shades and insults, the fight scenes and heck, that knacking. Choi! Some Nubian nudity... Hell yeah. grin

we didn’t need the scene because everything is rush and that scene time should be used for the last battle

Just finished watching the Last samurai season 1

I don't know what to say or how to review this series😂.

The concept of the series is like Squid Game, but the main difference is that it involves sword fighting have being seeing a lot of bad reviews about this series online.

Then I finally calm down and watched it bit by bit just to grasp the storyline, so what I notice is that, the series was about end of an era of swordsmanship and how swordsmanship was something important in ancient Japan, then Now the invention of Guns make people who wield sword useless in the society.

And the said samurai know only how to wield a sword, nothing else, which drives most of them into abject poverty. so I was thinking the samurai why can't they just adapt? The world is changing and you still stick with sword, at least they should find work to do, to feed their family,  but No, they can't do that, all they want is to wield sword and earn money is not that crazy?😂

This series highlights  how Gun is superior to any form of hand equipment,  so with dis storyline I was not impressed.

For the game, the only thing that makes it different from Squid Game is that the oligarch wants all swordsmanship in Japan to vanish. So the reason still makes some sense, but at the same time it doesn’t why would they want to annihilate all swordsmen when they pose no threat to them again and? and are already considered useless to society?

Another part of the story involves the temple, where the students are forced to kill each other just so one person can become emperor. This is fvcking dumb. I’ve been thinking about it, and it doesn’t even make sense. What exactly is the role of the temple in society? What do they actually do?

Are they just recruiting students, teaching them how to swing a sword, and then making them kill each other afterward? As far as I can remember, the temple only has eight students. If one becomes emperor, do they then recruit another 8 students, train them in swordsmanship for another 10 years, just for them to kill each other again? Useless storyline 😂😂

The storyline of this series doesn't make sense at all I don't know what to rate it sef

Overall the show was about how Gun is superior to sword nothing else..

So I will rate d series 5/10 I rate it 5  because of the fighting scene, the fight in d series was perfect only the storyline was wack...

I won't be surprised if Will kills Vecna in the finale.

That is what they're building up to with the hive mind thing and making Will get powers and direct access to Vecna.

El has the most connection to Vecna and yet they never fought or interacted this season. It's as if the writers completely forgot about that rivalry.

I'm 85% sure that's how it will play out. He will get assistance from the others, but he will do the most work

low-key, just narrowly escaped been underwhelming 👀...We clearly knew it was a Squid Game copycat but at least copy well. They were trying to introduce some unnecessary twist and turn and they just lost me, so i am not particularly interested in trying to see what they have to show me in S2 ✌🏿
Re: What Series Are You Watching Now? Part 2 by Ballzproblemm: 8:27pm On Dec 27, 2025
Maturing is realizing that stranger things is pile of garbage,is basically filler something you watch when have nothing.


Mighty Nein ,the art style is a copy and paste version on vox machina,while have no problem with that the line up is lackluster,the voice actors voice are irritating to.
my ear especially that goblin girl, whatever lol.

You can watch it
It's a very interesting show. Our issue is that they kept everyone waiting for 3+ years, only to present us a lackluster final season

Please watch. It's a very interesting series. A lot of people are just disappointed with some poor decisions in the final season.

The world is literally ending and the most pressing need is to tell the whole world you are gay.

Way to go Netflix.

I don't like this Will character.
Re: What Series Are You Watching Now? Part 2 by Holav(m): 11:12pm On Dec 27, 2025
Ahhh 10/10 ke😂...
OhBritannia:
Last Samurai standing is a solid 10/10 for me.

Ladies and gentlemen, friends and family!!! This is what we call the perfect series, peak and premium pro Max.

Storyline 10/10
Character development 10/10
Action 10/10
Thriller 10/10
Plot 10/10
What more can i even add because even though it's a six episodes series, i am already addicted to the show..
I wish a season 2 can come out right away even before the end of this year.

You want a glimpse of what's happening in NIGERIA as per our insecurities, then Just watch this series.

End of story!!!

I’m genuinely curious if LGBT viewers also lose their minds and crash out whenever straight couples have sex scenes in movies? If a scene bothers you, the simplest solution is to skip it.

People need to accept a basic reality, there are many LGBT individuals in America and Europe. It’s unrealistic to expect their presence, or stories reflecting them to be completely absent from Western films. Representation follows demographics, it’s not a conspiracy.

I would want to believe you are on about ST latest release, if so.

The problem is not with LGBT or their representation, the problem is with the context. This shows was set in the 80s, LGBT was still highly taboo!..No Gay man then was coming out to one person, let alone a room full of people. Many famous people were Gay then, and they kept it a secret, and even engaged in heterosexual relationship to deflect rumours, LGBT community was so ostracized that, they were synonymous with HIV/Aids.

The Duffer Brothers have got so confused on how to end this, no more "shock value" cards to pull, they resulted to nonsense pandering, that ordinary should serve no purpose to the story. Primary characters are now been relegated to Secondary characters, Eleven has been touted as the end all, be all of the show, and one episode to go, she still get nosebleeds from lifting simple objects 😩😩.

This entire S5 feels forced, even the actors, aren't even doing much acting, they are just bidding time, to fulfill their contracts and be done, so the only "draw" now, it's this stunt they pulled, even the LGBTQ community aren't even, all that pleased.

It's has been a shít storm since episode 1, but at least they were watchable, but this latest episode has knocked the show, from been one of the greatest show ever, which is sad, because the high i got from seeing S1 way back (2016), lasted a whole year! 😔

Even if the film is set in 2025, we both know the responses on this thread will be the same as long as they see a LGBT scene in it.

Why must their story always involve their sexuality?

We tell stories and our sexuality doesn't even come into it all the time. It's the same way I always ask these color people: why must I know you don't like women? Or even men?

I find it interesting that you’ve never had an issue with straight sex scenes. You even applauded House of Ashur for one of them. It’s a problem only when the characters aren’t straight.

Unless people plan to stop watching western films entirely, they’ll have to accept this reality, LGBT people may not be a major social focus in Africa, but they exist in large numbers in America and Europe. Expecting Western films not to portray LGBT characters or their sexual scenes is simply unrealistic.

Don't gather people in a room to announce it. We already knew from season 4 that he was gay, there's no need making making a big deal now. I haven't watched any movie where James Bond would gather the MI6 to announce that he likes Bond girls and Martinis

Why should I have any issue(s) with straight sex scene(s) We aren't talking about characters being straight or bent, we are talking about real life human beings shoving their sexuality in our faces.

Expecting Western films not to portray LGBT characters or their sexual scenes is simply unrealistic.
Reality being whatever it is. I've long known to skip any sex scene that doesn't appeal to me. In House of Ashur, I even skip straight sex scene too.

You keep saying these color people exist in large numbers in the U.S and in Europe, Exactly how many are they?

Realistic is not forcing any sex scene or anything at all. Imagining Watching Terminator, and John Conor is telling us he doesn't like girls? Does that make any modicum of sense at all? huh

Please get the picture.

Beorn:
I swear. I was pissed. Something that had absolutely nothing to do with killing of Vecna or the plot, and more annoying, something avid fans of this show already knows. they just reduced the intensity of that episode because of gay stuff

What annoys me the most is they used 24 hours to shoot that useless scene.
Taking them 24 hours to film rubbish scenes explains perfectly why it took them more than 3 years to film and drop this nonsense season.
