šŸ¦‡ The sci-fi, fantasy and capeshit thread

Just think it’s gone downhill. The storylines and scripts are nowhere near as engaging as past series.

I didn’t say it hadn’t gone downhill. It has sadly to say, since the Dr had a sex change.
But the last episode was the best of the last series if episode 9 is the last one?

Sexist.

For me it’s become too unbelievable.

In these days, it isn’t really an ask to have any sort of Doctor. Male, female, black, white - no one really gives a shit.

I’ve loved many individual episodes of the modern Doctor Who.

It was at its best when Billie Piper and Catherine Tate were involved. The Gillan/Smith partnership was also excellent.

Plots went downhill post-haste and what we seem to have with Jodie is an awkward meeting of the modern series finally going full woke at the exact same time as appointing a female to play the part.

Personally, I’m not bothered about having a female time lord for all the reasons enumerated above, and I think Jodie Whittaker a fine actor that is ill-served by the scripts.

Well I enjoyed the 1st two Jodie episodes.

Then realised how exhausted I really was and woke up 12 hours later.
Or she’s a great cure for insomnia

This for me as well, scripts started to go down hill post David Tennant, Matt Smith was good but the scripts started to get a little too touchy-feely IYKWIM.

Love Jodie as the Doctor, hate the scripts, hate the companions…

S2 of Altered Carbon has just dropped on Netflix woo hoo

Be interesting to see how they handle this one, will it be like season 2 of Castle Rock with a completely different story line, ignoring the story line from the 1st??

Wow.
Perhaps a rewatch of series one would help before watching S2 Ep1.
Got the gist but.

Oh yeah.
Cracking stuff, Bewbs & Willie’s even

Ah.
Seems I rewatched the last episode of S1 by mistake last week.
Which in hindsight was a really clever idea, because when coupled with the intro to S2 everything made sense.
Then we launch into ep1 of S2 and it made sense, answered @BTripz question introduced an MCU Star in the lead role and went into Space.
Very good start.

Ok
Going full out.
Altered Carbon S2 is fvcking brilliant
Pure Sci Fi Opera now

Need something to binge?

I’ve been sticking with this, it’s not the best but it’s alright…

I’m vacillating between Kattee being really hot or looking like the joker without the makeup…

Loving the episode where they all get high…

another one that needs sticking with, my son watched it through to the end and was disappointed with the ending…

Don’t think it tied up with the Norse mythology he’d learnt from playing God of War, however he is now reading up more on Norse mythology which is a good thing…

Bats, I can’t believe after all this fucking bats…

So, so much promise and such a shitty ending

Yeah it was enjoyable, could have been better but I’ll take any non horror sci-fi these days

Finally an English version of S4 of The Expanse!

Oh hello…

How the fuck has it taken you this long? It’s not like they filmed the show in Polish!
