Lovecraft Country: Sundown (2020)
Very bland show.
I have no problem with a black lead but the problem here is that the CGI quality, action sequences, story-telling, character development, pacing, intrigue, and two of the three black leads are just all bland.
They spoil so many monsters in this episode which not only reveals how low quality the show is, but also ruins the tension and intrigue of them. The best of horror usually reveals the monsters near the very end, layering the plot with the characters and their reaction and fear from the unknown rather than from the jumpscares.
From a story-telling standpoint I guess the premise is fine on paper but resulted in bland execution. The main protagonist, named Atticus, and his female deuteragonist, named Letitia, are both bland and uninteresting, and don't feel real or genuine.
There is an attempt to develop Atticus and explain his bland and supposedly "stoic" nature and he does receive a fair amount of backstory and mystery behind along with Letitia's family drama being explored, but in the end those are shallow attempts to make up for their lack of real personality and enjoyable scenes, which Atticus barely has and Letitia never has, at least not in this episode.
The best character is Uncle George who has a personality and wit to him, and feels like both a real person and a likeable one.
I also feel the need to say that the "villainous" characters in this episode feel like cardboard cutouts and do not seem to exemplify common sense in any way, which made every scene containing those red-shirt characters predictable and the outcomes obvious and boring.
Overall Lovecraft Country's first episode didn't do much to capture my interest, and despite generally decent performances and decent cinematography and set design, the narrative, characters, and suspenseful horror stop me from recommending it to general horror fans.
If you're a Lovecraft fan in particular you shouldn't set your hopes up either, as this episode reveals the show is "Lovecraftian" in name only, rather than in the execution of its narrative and horror aspects.
Kitty Is Not a Cat (2018)
This is a really great show
With cute characters and cool references, adults can get something out of this too while kids can get much more and the experience can't be ruined.
It has a large cast but all of them are unique and cool in their own way, and in a wave of trashy kids shows trying to appeal to adults more, with unsubtle themes from adulthood to serious topics their writers can't handle, or the other wave which takes kids as braindead all the time, it's nice to see a show which is both cute, silly, and fun without being way too trashy and having actual humor kids can enjoy.
Where the Dead Go to Die (2012)
I used to like movies until I watched this.
I don't like human beings anymore. This movie violates my will to exist and I am deeply offended. Instead of being scared or even disgusted the first "act" was just hilariously bad and then rest was just edgy, People hate this because they watched this alone but I watched it with my homies and none of us were pleased with anything aside from the emoji movie references. Which we enjoyed deeply.
The Big Bang Theory (2007)
Terrible Show
I can never understand why people like this show, none of the characters are funny or interesting, when someone tries to make a joke he just names a couple of famous geek stuff and moves on, and the worst of it all is that it never ends. They can finish this show at any time but they decide not to because of stupid people who laugh at unfunny clichés about Doctor Who and Batman and all of that, they introduce a billion characters and make a billion plots just so 80% of them could f*ck off the next few episodes. Those who do stay in the show are 2 boring characters, one likes the main character Sheldon Cooper although Sheldon doesn't like her and the other marries the LE FUNNI JEW NERD XDD character other characters are the hot girl Penny, the LE FUNNI India GUY and the deuteragonist Leonard hofstandetdheylefunninamedhdgewesuckhsufu.
This show has nothing good or funny to offer and should be taken down, much better comedy shows can be done and they do not have to include a billion seasons and a billion characters
