I haven't finished Avatar yet; somewhere in season 2 with my kids. We haven't picked it up in a while now.
Season 2 is where it gets much better, so I think it's worth finishing the whole show. One of my favorites from when I was a kid despite anything about it that frustrates me as an adult

Real slow.

Reminds me of the reason behind the book Bored of The Rings. Which, if you enjoyed Lord of the Rings and haven't read Bored, you probably should.

Adar is becoming more and more entertaining to watch so I hope they keep him around for a bit longer
It is a slow build-up but I think the payoff will be worth it. The eye-roll lore changes they made in episode 5 really detracted from that otherwise good episode.

Spoiler Alert!

I am enjoying watching things play out.

Don't get me wrong it's interesting...but slow.

It's like watching a snail move across a tabletop covered in glue...you know it can probably do it and you want to find out if it actually makes it. But it's sloooooooooooooow.

Just when you thought it was all right, someone made it alright.

Good trades with - Porkins / xraine69 / mac122 (x2) / frylock / Ztimster (x2) and probably others I forgotten to mention...sorry.

Re: TV: What Are You Watching?

I thought episode 6 was really good, and shows the kinds of payoffs they can have by taking the time to set things up the way they have.

Re: TV: What Are You Watching?

Watched the first three seasons of Snowpiercer, which were available on my Cable On Demand (a pal is going to get me a flash drive copy of the movie). Like Taeblewalker, who only saw the movie, I thought that although the SciFi train premise is silly, the show is pretty goods as social satire and action, and I love Sean Bean! (His many characters are always warped, whether Good or Evil. Somebody said he always wonders how long they will get to live in any show they are in)! They have apparently filmed a 4th and final season, to come out in 2023.

Most of the many characters are fun, the cast is good, and there are many unexpected twists and turns along the way. And the 3rd season ending was quite satisfying.

I love Snowpiercer!

Re: TV: What Are You Watching?

I ended up binge watching a show on Netflix called Lockwood & Co. Went in to it knowing nothing at all about it, is says it's based on some books. Never heard anything about it either, just kind of stumbled across it while browsing the menus. Ended up being a pretty good watch.

Wolves (2014)
Solid werewolf movie on not the biggest budget. Really helps that it features Jason Momoa.

Opening day.

A cloud can change its semblance, yet retain its will
With the intimacy of destruction, One knows what it is to be alive
The empty sky holds no reflection, for sorrow

Re: TV: What Are You Watching?

Picard Season 3 was actually pretty good. Not quite TNG quality but as close as we're probably ever going to get with these characters. All the actors are still around and all still look recognizable as their characters even after all this time. If you've watched any recent Trek and said "this isn't Star Trek" then I think you might still enjoy this, it's got a bit more going on under the hood of all the explosions and drama and lens flares. And it's probably a better sendoff to the TNG cast then the movies in the 90's.
