Hide contents First episode had Uthred's brother and father die, Ragner adopt him, Kjartan's betrayal, Uthred and Brida growing up, Ragnar's death and the fall of all kingdom's but Wessex. That was about half of the first book. Yes it does - they did steam through his youth but then everything else is at a more normal pace! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Id seen that 13 books went into 5 seasons so was a tad worried after the first episode. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AVFCDAN Posted February 15, 2022 Share Posted February 15, 2022 3 episodes into the witcher and loving it so far. Not sure why its taken me so long as Witcher 3 is probably my all time favourite game. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's really distracting and making me want to turn it off. I've not seen it but as it's a Korean show this does not surprise me at all. They love focusing in on people eating and stuff. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm on episode 2 and it appears to have stopped now so think it was just one of those things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sharkyvilla Posted February 15, 2022 Share Posted February 15, 2022 I quite enjoyed The Fear Index on Sky. I've read all Robert Harris's books but this was probably the one I remembered the least about. Only 4 episodes so easily watchable in an evening.

It was a decent enough yarn and 4 episodes was more than enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's definitely a thing, there are online streamers that do something call Mukbang which is basically on an online eating show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't mind them eating, it's the close ups of them eating and talking I'm not fond of. I don't really want to see half chewed food, I get enough of that from my 4 year old.

HanoiVillan Posted February 16, 2022 Share Posted February 16, 2022 On 14/02/2022 at 15:44, sne said: Apparently there is some sort of organized protest happening where tons people are posting versions of a Tolkien quote going something like “Evil cannot create anything new, it can only spoil and destroy what good forces have invented or created" in the comment section for the trailer The worst thing about enjoying anything to do with Tolkien's work is that all the world's reactionaries Have Strong Opinions about it, and aren't shy about letting you know.

stewiek2 Posted February 17, 2022 Share Posted February 17, 2022 Just watched the season finale of Peacemaker. So so so good. Bravo James Gunn. Bravo. Spoiler Loved when the Justice League turned up at the end and Peacemaker was giving them shit for turning up late and the Aquaman f**ks fish retort!

I was quite excited by it, just for the novelty value if nothing else. But sounds like it hasn't been executed particularly well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bizzzle Posted February 17, 2022 Share Posted February 17, 2022 I watched the 1st episode of Archive 81 and I am not convinced that I liked it or not. Those that watched it, is it worth sticking with? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
