that's why they changed Starship Troopers from the book with those power armor suits..... because the actors LIKE to show their face.
Unless of course they're just collecting a paycheque from a middling show. I would love to get paid to do like 20 minutes of work a day.

> Took me out of it tbh.
I didn't know that jedi was played by Ahmed Best. I assumed it was some fan who won a contest to be in an episode because the acting was so fucking poor and the shots were composed like an SNL sketch.

It's so rudderless.
When one of the showrunners said there's no plan for it i knew it would just going to meander.
It's so directionless that when Bo-Katan shows up at Mando-Land or whatever they called their hideout she automatically took control and noone complained. it was fucking bizarre.
Couple that with Pedro not being there on set at all (he's a voice in a helmet worn by another actor) and it's just a fricken cartoon. I mean it always was kind of just a cartoon in 'live action' but it's worse without any overarching plot.

There's a show that failed to keep up as its plot unwound. I quit watching halfway into the last season .. just .. wasn't motivated to watch it

Every TNG or DS9 episode with a guest star the someone falls hopelessly in love with (with one exception) it's like they get to the episode and "well it was fun later"

You say he didn't leave. IMDB tells me that he has not appeared on The Flash since 2021 which tells me he left. As in no longer employed at the CW, no matter how often someone says "I just emailed Cisco"

Glad to see Carlos get decent work after leaving that shit show that is The Flash.

it takes seeeveral episodes to start to click for some people - the overall plot hasn't heated up quite yet and you're wondering why you should care about these people

Reply to comment by bluebirdgm in What’s your favorite time-loop / “Groundhog Day” episode of a TV show? by wet_bandits23
no no the problem with that is when the premise is stretched too thin it becomes unbearable because every episode ends on a cliffhanger because there's no resolution so it's a 'blue balls' situation.
Then you never go back and rewatch it because you can't just pick out one favourite episode - you have to watch the full season to get the payoff.

Yes it is sad. I don't care if someone's religious. It's not for me, but maybe it brings them comfort. But their religious privelege stops the moment they are infringing on others, especially how they treat their women like chattel

Nothing like bringing your home shit to a foreign country. I seriously doubt anyone in Buenos Aires would have had any beefs with the Israeli embassy except if they brought that hate with them from the middle east.

ChatGPT can certainly help out with plotting or throwing out ideas similar to those story flashcards.
It can't write a novel because it still just steals from the training dataset and it would be plagiarism after plagiarism.

yeah if you don't see his helmet off it's another guy.
kind of pathetic. I get the idea of these helmets being badass but the show got BETTER when he started to explore life outside this stupid cult
