And in case you didn’t notice, Hulu has a Comanche language dub of the movie.

Apparently if you're enough of a power nerd, there is nothing that cannot be flowcharted.

I've heard it's really good, but those spoilers for violence are a super hard nope for me, unfortunately.

[edit] And I really do appreciate the spoilers, askye!

I was SO WORRIED the entire film that the dog was going to die, but thankfully they did NOT go there.

Thrive to spite them

I forgot to mention about the Comanche dub.

Steph if you are interested in seeing some of it I can see what the time stamps are for the violence so you can jump around it. Even though it is gory it isn't all through out the movie and it's not just random things made gory for the heck of it.

Tom I was too.

Pleased with the OMitB finale. They are good at setting the hook for next season!

LotR: TRoP

Any thoughts yet on LotR: The Rings of Power ?

So far: pretty people, pretty scenery, and a few likeable characters, but I'm unclear about where they are going with the story lines.

We are Buffistas. This isn't our first apocalypse. -- Pix

I watched the first ep, dcp; thought it was pretty but I'm too familiar with the text, and keep getting tripped up by the choices they are making.

Things like: Elrond was highly regarded for his family connections and wouldn't have been left out of a meeting for racist reasons. By this point in the canon timeline, Galadriel has fucked off east with Celeborn, who we haven't even met yet? The kingdom of Lindon would not have sent soldiers all the way to Mordor to oversee human villagers in case they still support Sauron. That was not a thing. The High King of the Noldor did not dictate who got to go to the Undying Lands: only the Valar could do that. Finrod died in Sauron's dungeons, eaten alive by werewolves, while trying to help Beren and Luthien steal a Silmaril.

I think I have to treat the show as an AU: there's too much they legally cannot talk about (anything about the Silmarils or the Exile of the Noldor, etc etc), and they are compressing the timeline of what they can talk about in order to up the dramatic quotient.

I hope it's good! I want to like it! But I am concerned.
