Stranger Things: Chapter Eight: Papa (2022)
Good episode , perfect setup for the finale
Firstly, watery eyes Will... overflows again! This is my only critique, the writers have assassinated wills character... And no development either. Ugh anyways. The rest of the episode was great, loved the discovery at the prison, loved the "calm before the storm" feel of the back home crew gathering weapons, loved the DR Brennan drama and goodbye. I can't wait to see what happens next.
Obi-Wan Kenobi: Part V (2022)
Worst episode so far
The dialogue, the fight scenes, the plot, nothing was done well.
Let's start with plot:
Vader knew all along? So he just loves wasting everyone's time ... Got it. Ok
So how did the sanctuary find out? The bugged droid hacking the gate and then immediately someone runs up "there's an imperial ship here"... Got it.
And Obi wan goes to stall by negotiating... Through a 2 foot thick door ? Ok got it.
Oh he just has a hunch she was a Padawan and she takes the bait and admits everything? Ok got it.
The entire plotline was based on leia being an electrician engineer and unhacking the doors???? Ok got it!
Dying reva ( but not dead ) finds a stray hologram that tells her exactly what she needs... Well now that one makes sense , it's Disney.
The dialogue:
Reva and Obi wan talk like two awkward middle school kids. Leia says I need a latter - to fix the gate that they should know how to fix - and Obi is just like "hey she's the boss man". Nothing about "I'm gonna fix the gate" to which they would say "oh I designed the gate, let me help".
Darth Vader had good dialogue though.
The fight scene cinematography was absolutely terrible. I had to remember, this is Disney? With billions in budget? I'll let the other reviews talk about Vader and reva, how about the scene where lita dies?? That's the most frustrating part of the episode to me.
Iliza Shlesinger: Confirmed Kills (2016)
Soap box and politics
Good until half way through, when she segways to politics.
Iliza: I'm worried. I'm really worried. I'm really worried about or friends, our family... And our country! Crowd cheers.
Like wtf are they cheering for???
Iliza Shlesinger: Unveiled (2019)
The dribbling psycho feminist ferver killed it
I love Iliza, and love the occasional feminist jokes bashing men and how society belittles women too often. However, I was tired of it and the energy and delivery after 5 minutes. I tried to skip past the high energy political jokes, but every place I stopped it was the same. I gave up.
Is It Cake? (2022)
Great idea, poor casting and editing
While the host was was cringeworthy, he wasn't the only problem. The entire cast was. Nobody has chemistry, everyone is dumb and unentertaining. Further, the editing was awful! It hardly lets you the viewer compare the cakes to make a guess- which should be the whole point. Like what the heck? Half second shots at each cake before the lame judges pick without giving any good reasons.
Is it cake? I'll never know, because I stopped watching.
