So much Babylon 5.. up to season 3 now

[–] 7U5K3N@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 2 months ago (1 children)

The absolute best in science fiction. It is my favorite all time show.

Hopefully you're using a watch guide.

no watch guide, just the episodes in order.

season 3 is really heating up, the civil war and all the setup in seasons 1 and 2... No filler episodes in this season

I just finished S3E10... what a banger! https://hackertalks.com/comment/4911396

This makes up for every filler episode i watched before, i'm totally thrilled, the storytelling power here is amazing.

Wait till you hit S3E20. My personal favorite. Enjoy the experience!

[–] jet@hackertalks.com 2 points 2 months ago

Zathras does not understand, but Zathras does, Zathras is good at doing.

I just finished the Shadow War. S4E6... what a roller coaster!

I'm confused, but happy.

haha, Where did the great machine get Zathras's people!?! Time travel could have such a huge impact on the shadow war, or even pre-communicating before everyone left to take those damn preachers with them.

its very cathartic, but it is a bit like casting a message in a bottle. Once I finish b5 I don't think I'll do another mega watch thread

[–] Annoyed_Crabby@monyet.cc 4 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Finish rewatching Dark, it start up good with season 1, season 2 is nice too, but season 3 really failed the landing with over convoluted twist which seems rushed just to tied everything together.

I had to look up a chart to understand what was going on in s3.

The International Dota 2 tournament began this week, so I've been watching that. Been some good games and some hilarious games so far - Aurora vs Team Zero game 3 yesterday was an absolute clown show.

[–] TomSelleck@lemm.ee 3 points 2 months ago

The Rings of Power. It’s got me listening to the musical score for The Two Towers while I drive around in my car.

[–] KittenBiscuits@lemm.ee 2 points 2 months ago

Scavengers Reign. So so good.

[–] scytale@lemm.ee 2 points 2 months ago

It was all shows this past week, mainly both season 1 and 2 of Interview Wih The Vampire; and season 1 of Snowpiercer.

[–] BonesOfTheMoon@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

Absolutely nothing, I decided I need to read more books and read four in four days.

[–] Aurenkin@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 months ago

Finished watching the rest of The Orville. I really enjoyed it!

[–] Nemo@slrpnk.net 1 points 2 months ago

Bad Monkey has been pretty enjoyable.

[–] kusivittula@sopuli.xyz 1 points 2 months ago

i watched the first episode of space force after seeing the hilarious "fuck microsoft" clip

The three lord of the rings movies (again) since a colleague said they are amazing compared to the crap that is coming out of Hollywood these days.

He was 100% correct. Proper storytelling, acting, plot and effects. People acting like adults. Men being portrayed normally and not like dumb college kids. No dumb gender and race politics.

Gandalf is basically how a proper man should be. Helpful, brave, strong morals and strong kindness.

Started watching Seal Team. I'm on season 2 now and have been pleasantly enjoying it. Was surprised, I thought it would be more schlocky when I first came across it.

Really been enjoying Dark Winds.

[–] kindenough@kbin.earth 1 points 2 months ago

Futurama latest episode, Ronin (with Reno and de Niro), Nobody and Big Trouble in Little China. Tried to watch Longlegs but fell asleep everytime. I watch anything with Cage though.

[–] Today@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

We're watching Grimm. It's pretty fun.

[–] Sir_Kevin@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 2 months ago

Fail Army is pretty much all that I've watched this week.

[–] lunarul@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

Binged Resident Alien and now watching the latest Rings of Power season.
