The Mandalorian: Chapter 20: The Foundling (2023)
where is this leading?
The first two seasons of the show were amazing. However, this season seems a little lacklustre. Yes, it's developing the Star Wars world and yes, it is adding more lore, but in terms of stakes, plot and emotion there is seemingly nothing. The episodes have been overall enjoyable but I just don't see where they're going. This season could have been so interesting with a mandalorian civil war or a season long story about Din discovering his identity as either a true mandalorian or a new unorthodox mandalorian and fathering Grogu whilst Bo struggles with regaining power on Mandalor. But no, nothing seems to be happening so far and there's only 4 episodes left!
Clarkson's Farm (2021)
The POWERRRRRRR Of TV
Never did I think a tv show about Jeremy Clarkson wrestling some sheep and making some seeds would make me nearly cry at the end and a beautiful message about how amazing life is.
Formula 1: Drive to Survive: Cash Is King (2021)
Perfect Start
This episode is the perfect start to the season, it gets us familiar with the main story lines that will be followed and almost gives us a cliffhanger over how f1 will survive during COVID, this episode sets up to make a perfect season!
The Italian Job (1969)
A Great Payoff
I've wanted to watch this film for so long and so finally I gave in and purchased it on Amazon prime, I enjoyed the film, there were lots of great jokes and iconic moments, the general idea of the heist is brilliant but most of the film I found pointless, although it's all payed off by the end with one of the greatest sequences in film. The whole film leads up to the "mini chase" scene and when I say that the mini chase scene makes the entire thing worth watching, I mean it. This is an iconic classic worth watching.
The Mandalorian: Chapter 16: The Rescue (2020)
The Best Episode of TV I've Ever Watched!
This episode is flawless, it made me cheer and cry and smile and laugh, honestly AMAZING!
The Grand Tour: The Grand Tour Presents: A Massive Hunt (2020)
Scripting is good when it's done well
Yes this episode was obviously very scripted, but when the scripting is done well it creates and amazing episode for the trio, however this episode wasn't scripted well. Although I enjoyed the cars and the overall idea of the adventure I wish there had been more Clarkson, Hammond and May antics, like sabotaging eachothers cars and the like.
I think the main problem was that they were separated too much, there were barely any moments when they all worked together or had any fun/funny scenes together.
Still an enjoyable episode though.
The Flash (2014)
Slowing Down
Starting at season 1, this show used to be amazing, it had the right balance of drama, action and humour. The villains for the first two seasons were scary, thrilling and had meaning. The character arcs made sense, and worked for each character. But then, the show began to get worse and worse. New characters added, slowing down the story. Forgettable and laughable villains and a lot more. Throughout season 3,4 and 5 the show just slowed down to a halt. Until season 6. The first 8 episodes of this season were a master piece. All of Barry's fears were used against him, tensions were high, and the villain was the best since season 2. But then every episode since has just been plain stupid. There's too many characters, a terrible villain, an idiotic story and a lot more.
I will be watching the next season (7) but if that doesn't go well, this show might as well be over for me.
