wow so this season of shadow and bone is the same in that each individual actor is killing it in embodying their character but the plot is nonsense!!!
Like we’re not going to get the not just girls soft wesper scene, jasper is outed as grisha, the darkling didn’t dramatically interrupt the sea whip hunt and there was no flying Nikolai dramatic act yet :’)
And I’m only through episode two but I guess we are skipping all the apparat religious plot which honestly was looking forward to with the creepy priest in season one, and the interesting play that would have had with Tamar and tolya…. And missing hungry for power Alina it’s like oops she has two now and almost destroyed the boat! No like in the books she looks terribly ill from the fold encounter and not using her ability, she has the scary choker she has to hide and is desperate to find another amplifier
And again it’s jarring the cuts between the two plots - six of crows should have been it’s own show stand-alone. And now it feels like we are in the crooked kingdom plot without ever getting the ice court heist or the outing of parents. Like the editing is really awkward.
I guess I’m just disappointed because the costumes and sets are PERFECT the characters have the right edge for each of them, but they’ve been dropped in a fanfic where the plot bones and the pacing that make each character and relationship feel earned and put together are missing!!!
Although I think the bit we’ve had of malina has been very well done, the Kanej is pushing it for more because .. they shouldn’t be here yet. And Nina calling Matthias the love of her life right when they meet? Opposite the book UGH
I will finish this season to see Ben Barnes go full villain but really am sad that we waited so long for this and as a fan of both series feel we realllllly got jipped
Surprise!! 1989 (Taylor’s Version) is on its way to you 🔜! The 1989 album changed my life in countless ways, and it fills me with such excitement to announce that my version of it will be out October 27th. To be perfectly honest, this is my most FAVORITE re-record I’ve ever done because the 5 From The Vault tracks are so insane. I can’t believe they were ever left behind. But not for long! Pre order 1989 (Taylor’s Version) on my site 😎

rampart's answer did not, repeating, did NOT please me
like what is he so smug about, i honestly feel like he was lying. they didn't just- you know- execute him for disobeying orders, right?
i downloaded sims4 and made cody in it, and now i cant stop thinking about how many headcanons there are about cody being good at cooking, while my cody set himself on fire three (3) times in only 2 hours of play time

Okay so it wasn't horrible but I'm really kind of annoyed on how they portrayed their characters and the story lines. Also this is just my opinion I don't mean hate to any of the cast members or anything like that
First of all Mal would NEVER leave Alina like idk why but that felt really out of character for him
Also in the books, Nikolai LOVED being Sturmhond. That was his escape from everything and a way he could do what he wanted to do without having to be worried about his royal status. Again I feel like him giving up Sturmhond to Mal is just a bit weird like the whole of KoS and RoW plot lines would not be the same and if a 3rd season does happen, then they are clearly going to try and include those plot lines because of what happened with the nichevo'ya
ZOYA GOT ROBBED OF HER SCREENTIME! Zoyalai is literally endgame and I don't get how they are going to do this when they barely said a word to each other this whole season
I'M REALLY ANNOYED ABOUT WHAT THEY DID TO WESPER! Like yes I loved seeing them interact and it was honestly so cute but I feel like their relationship got severely rushed and after Jesper got over his crisis about him being durast, everything was fixed after one scene which just didnt feel right to me. Also they missed a massive amount of their story from the books by speeding up their relationship like they included plots from CK when SOC is just about to happen at the end of the season so the whole thing with Kuwei is not gonna work as well
WHY DID DAVID DIE SO EARLY?! His death was completely brushed over by the other characters and they completely jumped over key points in Genya and David's relationship and considering how David and Nikolai interact in KoS duology we got to see none of that in the show
I feel like the Kanej plot line was also really rushed as well like the hallucination didn't really make sense to me but that might just be me
I also really wished we got more Helnik in it like they did it well but its a shame it wasn't included more
I get that the show is different from the books and I'm find with that but I think they carried out some of the plot lines really badly and it would have been better if it wasn't all so rushed
the way Cody yelled ‘NOVA!!!’ in this episode is the exact same way he yelled ‘LONGSHOT!!!’ during the Citadel arc. even under fucking mind control, he still loves his brothers more than ANYTHING. he never stopped caring about them, and this entire ep just goes to show how genuinely sweet and kind he is and how good of a person he is. they characterized him fantastically
i think people forget too often.
the domino twins were just as much cody's boys as they were rex's
Bad Batch Season 2 Trailer!!!! It looks so good! And there’s Commander Cody??¿ And Rex will reappear too!!! HE in this animation quality is just something else 🫶🏼
Also I really love, that someone decided to really dive into what happened after Order 66 and how everyone’s dealing with it, like with Andor and the Kenobi Series. Good idea. Very good.
i miss cody. where is he. is he well
