They are wasting time. When we get to the end, it’ll be rushed. Aka GoT.
It is well made. That has a value into itself. I enjoy watching well made TV because it’s so rare to see these days.
I disagree. Showing the Empire's sausage making is fascinating.
The earlier vignettes in the show moved in a similarly slow fashion, and the conclusion of each was quite good. [Reply]

Its just a cheap change from what Francis Scott Key Heard from General George Washington " American Christian apart from all other people in the world is he will die on his feet before he will live on his knees." [Reply]

Well done.
And for fucks sake, I could listen to Stellan Skarsgard read the phone book and be compelled. My god man.
I didn't really know him before this series. But, holy shit if he isn't an incredible actor. Especially the way he's essentially playing 2 different parts with his secret identity. [Reply]

You don't know Stellan Skarsgard? He's good in everything I've ever done, but you have to have seen him in the MCU.
But if you haven't seen Chernobyl, do it now. Right now. It is fantastic. And I think you would dig it.
He's also really fucking good in Good Will Hunting, which I'm sure you've seen.
But yeah, he's awesome in this. I was skeptical that his character would be compelling early on because he was pretty much a dick, and that's not interesting, but damn he lights up the screen. [Reply]

Wow, yeah I have seen both of those, and didn't realize that's who he was. LOL, I feel pretty dumb now. Looking at his imdb list, he's been in a ton of stuff I've seen but just didn't recognize. [Reply]

LOL It happens. I'm weird about it. I look up a ton of shit. Somehow it is an itch that I need to scratch. Especially if I don't know how I watched movies before IMDB. [Reply]

I agree on both - although oddly I didn't think Rogue One was that good the first time - but after many re-watches - it's the best or very close to the top. [Reply]
