Yeah... production looked good, acting is decent to good, pity the writers made so many bad choices. Legolas Send a noteboard - 27/12/2021 06:32:36 PM

View original postI think my posts here have shown I'm not in the slightest bit bothered about things trying to be "woke" for the sake of it and I generally find criticisms of those attempts just an excuse to show a bit of prejudice but the whole "the dragon can be man or woman" thing seriously damaged the narrative of the story and failed to set up the stakes for what the Dragon is. It's a really poor story telling choice for a cheap mystery arc which played out very unsatisfactorily.

Agreed - keeping the identity of the Dragon a mystery so long has proven to be a really bad choice, because it kept them from properly developing the main plot line. And sadly many of their smaller choices weren't too great either.

It's sad because there were some promising moments and I didn't hate some of the actors - 24/12/2021 05:35:23 AM 230 Views
When the woke choices are the cause of the poor plot then they deserve criticism. - 25/12/2021 03:46:18 PM 201 Views
Cause is the issue there - 25/12/2021 06:26:06 PM 198 Views
I thought I just provided examples of the writer’s choices fucking up the story. *NM* - 26/12/2021 02:23:39 AM 109 Views

I think you're repeating my point back at me, so I doubt it will be much of a surprise - 26/12/2021 01:54:34 PM 194 Views

You don't need unlimited funds, and £80m is a colossal amount already. *NM* - 26/12/2021 07:40:58 PM 131 Views
