The netflix marvel shows weird. Gaf is the only place i see a hard backlash against them. I think they are a good study in why binging might not be good for a show
 
Is anyone else getting For Honor when it comes out? I want to start a group called the Historically Accurate Warriors,and run around with black knights and Vikings.

I thought this was some long shit you just came up with. Just seen that post..��

"Make being black cool again"

My fucking head..

There's always one waiting for a chance to up their status with a little soft shoe.

Binging is proving time and time again to ruin viewing experiences. Audiences don't factor in their own limits, and timelines have no room to breathe. I don't watch any Netflix show in less than 3 sittings, and even then I give my self breaks to absorb what I saw and not expect the next movement to up the stakes continually.
 
Why do people care so much about how a murderer gets punished? I understand if there was some doubt if they did it but if the mothafucka is proud of what he did then why do you care so much about how he is punished?

Yeah 3 is my limit, after that you just watching to get it over with. There is something to be said about having a week to marinate on the story from episode to episode

One thing I've noticed is people have the weirdest ass hills they will die on in OT. Though to be fair for this particular topic, some people feel some type of way when it comes to the death penalty.

And the baffling thing is that the fact that Trump is essentially a puppet of one of the nation's worst current enemies will mean nothing especially to the people with the most influence to keep him away from the Oval Office.

Right now Trump is useful for pushing all their bullshit. The minute he stops or he becomes more trouble than he is worth........

The one show that I can for sure say is better to binge watch was Lost.
People would absolutely lose track of events and immediate responses (or confusion in the moment) from one episode to the next. We'd have a week to chop up a characters illogical reactions that they would make in split seconds. The artificial suspense created from time away and "cliffhanger" endings hurt it more than it helped.

Agent's being back tonight is all I needed to hear. Might have fucked around and clicked on the show thread without thinking.

Thanks for the heads up!!

IT'S MAHVEL BAYBEE


The first time i got banned here was when i called someone a fucking piece of human garbage and a waste of a human. He claimed he was an idf soldier and have used palestinian children as human shields before the events in Gaza back in 2014. Needles to say i was boiling.

I wonder how many of his appointees that are more trouble than they are worth, and this whole Alt-nazi wing that he's put into position.. are they there for his protection, or to keep an eye on him? Like, The Alt agenda at play both here and in Europe, are they separate from what Putin has on the field, or just another chapter in that same playbook?

True. But up to season 3's end, it was really entertaining and they didn't have to start 'splain shit yet. If that show was only on a Netflix seasonal schedule. It had everything it needed to be great. Everything but time.

I think alt right just lucked into a perfect storm. The big names are in it for the money or the attention and the bulk are rabid dogs that snap at anything. That is a Trump's coalition is not one built tot last. Eventually the Pepes will get bored and move on to somethign else or worse turn on Trump and/or the GOP.

These are people live to hate, what is there to hate when they are winning? Remember the Tea Party?

Don't get me wrong shit is going to be BAD. But I don't think ti will be a thousand years of darkness

I was thinking more of these so-called conservatives and alt-fuckhead movements that are coalescing across Europe, and the consolidation of resources about to come down on France and Germany during their upcoming elections. Britain, U.S, and next French and Germany. All in the same bucket, all looking to take some of that mineral money from China and stiff em on debts and contracts. (Chinese exports are about to sky rocket in price this week globally. They've been manufacturing at a 5% increase in cost of everything on the books as of late last year).
And then there is Russia, looking to have no one fuck with their "interests" around their neighbors, and neighbors borders. Especially not from Turkey and the U.N.

Kneecapping the U.N is obvious for all of the parties involved, for all of the reasons stated. The only way anyone could challenge Chinese claims and contracts is with a united front.

I think they going to end up pissing of China and starting a trading cold war. Playing 1600 for 32 inch tv.
 
People boggle my mind with this death penalty nonsense. Cause the equivalent of wanting him to rot is so much more vailant than the former.

That and the fact people are starting to throw mental illness and rehabilitation education would have helped this killer. Over it.

I have a feeling because he is white and they feel he is just mistaken I damn near guarantee people wouldn't be fighting this hard if he was black.

Yeah, I can't comprehend why Dylan fucking Roof is the hill people want to die on. No one is about to make me feel bad about this fuck dying. Good fucking riddance.

If they were telling the truth, I hope that bitch falls under a bus.

So wait. I can watch shows on Funimation for free via Hulu, but I can't watch Hulu for free? What fresh nonsense is this?

Also, it's crazy that it went from Journey to the West to a combat series.
 
Dude killed these folks in a church. Had a manifesto. Ran to another state. Police found him in said state. Admits to the murder and adds how he almost changed his mind because of how kind the dead were to him.

We get a Central Park Five comparison. Idiots..
 
"Hi Gaf!

This is my first post, definitely nothing wrong with that, and I just had to post in the "Does anyone else but me not like the Black Panther thread?" for my very first post. Anyways, yes, as a black male, I'm sorely disappointed by the Black Panther. It was a film that was sorely needed, but the execution is botched 'Straight out of Compton level' stupidity.

My biggest issue is the lead. I can find fried chicken with more acting ability than Chadwick Boseman. He is this movie's biggest offense, and the reason why I have zero faith in Black Panther 2. I groaned excessively when I heard he was cast as the Black Panther, but I was willing to give him a chance based on amazing Marvel films like Thor and Captain America 1 but this BLM thug just lacks charisma and any sort of 'swag' in his performances.

This was supposed to be a movie that made being black cool again and made white people like my 'bae' Tendril Lahren comfortable, but this movie lacks anything fun or enjoyable. Chris Evans is the only character having any fun on this project and he only appears in a cameo. Just awful.

I just knew no one would like this movie since I didn't like it and I'm black, so don't worry white posters, it's not just you. I absolutely hated all the positivity surrounding it at release, but kept my mouth shut around my black friends because I didn't want to seem "unhip". But we as black people deserve better than Obama terrorist garbage.

IMO as a black man, this movie is bad. Weak performances, dialogue, plot holes, and script. First Marvel film that was just terrible.

But, the Chris Evans cameo was definitely great. There should be more of that."

This is the most melanin-devoid shit I have ever read

Listen..this is about preventing innocent minorities from dying!

I was like "rilly nigga"

People take this shit too far lol
