It's Jesse Armstrongs usual tropes of using political reality, social issues and historical references in a comical and inappropriate manner while enhancing or giving the characters their witty banter. Look at his writings in the Thick of It which if you're not a fan can be little jarring and very on the nose as it progress

The hangover sequels are unnecessary but still funny as hell though

I agree, its like they are trying more for an historical fiction drama angle trying to contextualise the audiences to the situation of November 1918 rather than putting it on Paul's point of view which is central to the story. But nevertheless, it still captured the most important details of the book, the insanity, the growing resentment, Paul's bitterness from reality after the death of his friends and his tranquil end in the midst of chaos as one of the many who gave for a few. Although not a major part of the book, it's historical authenticity is to be applauded.

This version has the best battle sequences out of all the three, but it deviated more from the story than the first two. Still showed the nonsensical warfare that is ww1. It has that German touch of somber, cynicism and regret with their movies and tend to be more realistic than romantic in the face of carnage as with the 1930 and 1979 version

But it is a private event, no adaptation of this crucial event is not yet filmed to celluloid.

Yes, it should, because from the story's perspective, she's one of the main characters of the show. We had like 3 seasons worth of her character in the story. Nobody likes an offscreen death of a character who is on half of the shows runtime, do we.

No, it's not and a very cop out structure of storytelling. The Crown is known for its nuance and balanced storytelling so leaving one of the most important factors that led to the monarchy nearing dissolving in the subsequent funeral is hogwash.

Talk about buckling under pressure. The House of Mountbatten Windsor still has say over their fucking media. Isn't Netflix worth more than their entire Crown Estate?

Very smart is not how you will describe the main characters in this show. Maybe backstabbers and power lust morons
