I appreciate the feedback guys, gonna check out Mistborn and First Law Trilogy! I like the premise of what you described for Mistborn, i don’t mind a little Dark Fantasy where the good guys don’t always win lol. Cheers gents! Thanks!

You should also have a look at The Elenium and The Tamuli. Two sequential trilogies by David Eddings.
14 books and they’re a great read. I really hope they’ve done it justice.
People should be who ever they want, but why does every show try to push it down the public throat. Is there a point these show want to make. We can so we will.
The character is gay. Has been for a very long time. Nobody’s forcing anything down people’s throats. It’s A tv show not the Only tv show watch it or dont. Comic book characters are by nature outliers, weirdos, misfits. If you were looking for “normal” you’re looking at the wrong genre.
thats a riot coming from you.
Isnt it though? but then I dont buy into silly bronze age morality tales…
Fantastic. They clearly spent a few bob on the animation. Really looking forward to the rest of the series.
Ah. Way it was described was a fungus, yes, that was mutated from covid, or at least the people that I know that were talking about it. Could well be that they were mistaken in that. Some of them are known for talking a bit as they watch, so could be they missed something, or maybe read that into it?
I myself never bothered with a mask or ever changed anything I did any more then I actually had to, I always figured that when my time came, it would come, and not until then. Nothing can stop it when it does. I do feel bad for all of the people that were separated from family and friends and such when they got sick and were in the hospital though, and weren’t allowed to see them or spend time with them, even or especially at the end.
I always thought that that was very cruel and unnecessary. I have since then lost all respect for the medical profession, as it seems to me they have no empathy at all for the patients in their care or their families.
It’s a form of the cordyceps fungi family that infect and puppet their human hosts. This fungus in real life cannot infect humans but does infect insects such as moths and ants and affects their behaviour. Absolutely not a virus, nothing to do with covid. It spread by spores in the bites of infected humans and in the area of some sites where lots of infected have become immobile and some infected types can launch spore bombs in the game.

Ooohhhh….! Doubt they will go that dark, however….they might go with something like the brother that has powers being a bit batshit, and having daddy issues winding up on Luthor’s side. Might wind up dead eventually. Other son might wind up with powers of his own and be the one that takes him out, trying to save one of the rents. Just a thought.
No but Im guessing that “the guy in the suit” is from another Earth probably the Mortal Kombat Injustice storyline Earth.
Mistborn is absolutely not affiliated with Jordan or The Wheel of Time in ant way shape or form. Mistborn is quite literally the worst trilogy of books I’ve ever read. If youre looking for a great fantasy series, look nor further than Joe Abercrombie’s First Law trilogy. If any fantasy series should be adapted to film its this series.
Really? I thought that Sanderson was masterful in utilizing Jordans style and his own..I barely noticed tbh..at least, nothing that took away from the story or how I percieved it as I read. I guess its all in the eye of the beholder ;) Cheers man
Well I mean he already writes in a somewhat Jordan style, The Mistborn series being a sort of darkest timeline where He Who Shall Not Be Named won. But yes there were times, and dont ask me specifics it’s been a few years, that it was noticeable that it was not Jordan writing. That’s just me though. And it is neither bad nor good. Just a thing that is.
It was an interesting first episode, but it brought up more questions than it answered. Theses people are STARTING with the tools that our ancestors had, and the knowledge of how to use them. If you believe that our predecessors crawled out of the ocean, or climbed down from trees, who TAUGHT them to make, and use these tools? Did they GUESS? LOL! Trial and error? The people in this series are having trouble EATING…SURVIVING…and they have a BIG advantage! They have been well nourished their whole lives, and should be superior, mentally, AND physically. Was there some generational, or epochal Einstein that led the way for our forbears?
Yes trial and error and inspiration. Like any invention nobody taught the inventor because the concept or technology didnt exist prior to its inception. Bows for example. It doesnt take a genius to see the potential of a sprung piece of wood after being whacked in the face by branch that’s been bent back out of the way and at least in the case of homo sapiens they were every bit as intelligent and capable as we are now. Yes these people have the advantage of being well nourished their whole lives but they dont have the advantage of survival being the entirety of their existence for the whole of their lives.They survived because they had no choice. Because they were steeped in it and because if they couldnt feed cloth medicate and otherwise maintain themselves they died and those who could survived to continue to struggle and innovate.
I noticed the style change in the writing. Thanks for explaining what happened.
He was diagnosed with Amyloidosis but was undergoing treatment. Knowing he might die before the books were finished he spent the first year after diagnosis telling different close friends and family parts of the rest of the story in detail so that it could be pieced back together and finished in a JRR Tolkien Christopher Tolkien way by someone else. He promised the fans that no matter what the books would be finished and the way he wanted the story to end. I think Sanderson did an admirable job given the difficulties of trying to emulate someone else’s writing.
I had very little interest in or hope for this show. Give how Superman has been treated as a character by the CW and the whole family dynamic thing. I watched a review by someone who’s opinion I generally trust and I have to say Im surprised very pleasantly surprised at how good it is. The production level and the writing are all quite good. Im just about to watch the third episode and really looking forward to it. If you were on the fence about watching this or like me had no interest give it a go. You might find yourself liking it.
Well that happened. I dont know why and Im pretty sure the majority of fans werent asking for a musical episiode.
They butchered the theme/soundtrack, why does Chief keep taking off his helmet? and noone cares about Kwan, she needs to go die ASAP. Otherwise, it’s decent… needs lots more fighting and battle scenes.
OK so on the helmet thing. First the reason master chief had a helmet on the whole time is that faces were really hard to do well when the first game came out. It was much easier to have a simple helmet. There’s nothing in the games that suggests he doesn’t or cannot take the helmet off. Thirdly this is a series and not the game. They’re trying to reach a different and larger audiences who have no connection to the game and who would most likely prefer to see the actor’s face. Since it’s a different medium than games they can and will take artistic licence. Look at the Resident Evil movies and how far they went from game cannon. Now Im sure you’ll want to bring up The Mandolorian but there we have the canon reason why he keeps the helmet on.
Trailer looks cool bill Murray should be in this to it has a The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou feel to it
Matt Ryan doing Constantine’s voice in this movie, I’m SO happy about that!
True.They need to just go ahead and give him his own Constantine show again.
Wow. The amount of ignorance is truly astounding.
Funny how none of Trump’s lawyers can find any evidence of that,anywhere. The cases are being thrown out left right and center and you cant claim court bias when Trump has appointed literally hundreds of judges in the past 4 years.Even his legal teams are fleeing like rats from sinking ship.
ya i hear you man :) Re. The Mistborn series you mentioned, i have never heard of it. If i understood you correctly, are you saying that it is based in the WoT universe where the bad guys won instead of the good guys? Its based on the same world and characters? I am most curious now because i have been looking for a new fantasy series to dig my teeth into and its difficult to find GOOD High Fantasy writers and a good story..i just finished The Sword of Truth series and it was amazing!
No not really. Different world different characters but the premise of what would a world look like where the BBEG had already won and the world was a horrible drudge and all served him sort of thing.
Hopefully, One day Quentin will make a Kill Bill 3 - Great Movie
Not going to happen he is retiring. Said he was stopping after 10 movies.
The series Rome (2005) https://www.primewire.li/tv/13086-watch-rome is worth watching before you see this.
This flew under my radar but I like it a lot. Extremely high production values. Will be binging the rest of the season today.
I know a few actors from this show that played the “Geeks”…its all staged bro
Same here.
Yeah it’s a bit cheesy but then sometimes you want a bit of cheese.
It might lessen the problem but wont remove it. People will always try to push their agendas which will annoy anyone on the opposite side.
No, no, no! I just watched the trailer and even though it’s intriguing, I don’t care for drama’s/movies with satanic overtones. I’ve never watch The Exorcist and even hearing the theme song played on the radio when I was a teen unnerved me to the point I had to sleep clutching my bible. Laugh if you must, but I draw the line…some believe in neither God nor the devil but where does that evil come from……hmmmm?
Sorry but the lols this induced were unreal. I get that you have beliefs even though those beliefs have no basis in reality but that is some serious nonsense. Also to answer your question based on the bible God created all things and if that were true he would be the originator of evil….
shut the fuck up you are not a mod and you dont work for primewire SHUT THE FUCK UP
This is a family friendly site. Cursing is against the rules whether you like it or not. Robo is a treasure to the site and if you really want to get moderators involved we can.
If you dont like it ignore it, turn the other cheek and forgive them. Judge not lest ye be judged.
Women? How dare you assume their genders…cue screeching from left wing petulant children….
Mate. We get it you dont like left wingers but here’s the thing you dont have to comment about it on everything. It makes you look like a petulant child crying “I dont like this”
It was until last episode.
Im assuming you havent played the game. If you did you would have expected Anna Torv’s character to die when she did. Your apparent anger at a actor playing a gay character, again heavily implied in the game, is very telling. Im a very straight guy and that episode was beautiful. Methinks the lady doth protest overmuch.
I don’t watch Anime, but being an Aries, I had to check it out based on the name. I’m still trying to figure out what Mars has to do with ANY of this, but I’m only 3 episodes in… So far it’s VERY misleading, and also extremely slow…
That’s a really weird way to choose what to watch. As for misleading….astrology.
It’s one thing to boycott a company and never buy their product again, but destroying stuff that you obviously like, you paid good money for it, has got to be the stupidest form of protest.
Well I put it off due to mixed reviews and not having a 4 hour window to watch but got round to it last night. Simply put fantastic. Major improvement on the theatrical release Far more depth and character work. You can see why Ray Fisher was so pissed at WB for how much the original cut of his work. I didnt think I’d be saying this but I hope they let Zack do a sequel. It’s well deserved. If you were on the fence about this jump right in bud.
The negative reviews put me off watching this but tv is a bit quiet at the moment so I gave it a go yesterday. So it’s not like the movie. So it’s a little cheesey at times but entertaining nonetheless and worth checking out.
well, by nature screen adaptations will be different than the book reading experience. If one remembers that to start with they may not be so mad at the end of the movie. That said, this saga has GOT potential, in story, violence, torture, you name it.
Made me wish I had a nice Aes Sedai for a bodyguard…
I named my swordsmithing business Ravenmark Blades in homage to the heron mark blades in the books. Raven rather than heron because of a tattoo I have.
Would a person had to of watched Breaking Bad to go on to this? Or is it one you can dive in to?
No you can dive straight in with this it’s a prequel to Breaking Bad so you’re not going to miss out on anything having not seen it. That said do watch Breaking Bad.
any links??
No but if you click where it says request links here you can request a link and someone may find one. No one checks comments for missing links.
Ruby Rose Just QUIT Batwoman!
Yeah She wasnt happy with the show and the crew werent happy with her. Bad match. Mutual split.
I will be glad when the election is over, and this virus scare mysteriously goes away, this is getting more stupid by the day
Yeah funny how there are people dying everywhere but it’s all about the American presidential race. I cant eyeroll hard enough.
Not all do, and the weapons change.
No none of them are sold at auction. The laws in NY where the show is made mean the weapons must stay where they are. The contestants “Surrender” their weapons because they aren’t legally allowed to take them home.
what is it about the mcu that brings out the trolls?
Tardisrider It’s not just Marvel happens with the DC stuff too and in answer to your question toxic fandom.
Great show. Didnt think it was going to be my thing but it was thoroughly entertaining.
Just started watching yesterday and Im almost through season 1. Brilliantly done.
No definitely canceled. Netflix announced on August 26th last year that they were cancelling the show. I’ve not seen nor can I find anything related to a season 3. There’s no good reason for them to do it. The viewer figures for season 1 were ok but season 2 suuuuuuuuuuuuuuucked and the figures dropped a lot. With a downward trajectory and high production costs it doesnt make any financial sense to continue to make it.
Yeah he announced years ago that he was quitting after his tenth film. While it had occasionally been casually discussed with Uma there were never any serious plans to make a third part. Would I love to see one? Yeah sure but it was never a realistic prospect.
i know nothing about the game or the story in general but this felt like nothing more than pointless pandering filler.
Nope. Those characters are in the game and while it’s not directly said that they’re in a relationship when Ellie is looking around their house, in the game, she finds a gay porn mag with pages stuck together. Draw your own conclusions about that. It honestly sounds like it really bothers you that some people not traditionally given a place in popular media are being represented. this would suggest that it’s more about you than the show/episode.
