The whole dogs getting shot thing was a non-starter for my wife. We watched two episodes and she stopped watching because of the dogs, I stopped watching because it seemed rudderless.

The 3rd episode won me over. The 4th episode was confusing but it still made me want more. About to watch tonight's episode pretty soon.

For me, it's so weird that I want to see what the heck is actually going to happen. It keeps getting better and there are moments of each episode that are oddly powerful.

I don't know. The whole no talking thing is starting to drive me nuts though.

I'm in the same boat. Not even sure if I like it but it's weird enough to be intriguing. One of the most depressing shows ever.

Excellent show. Seriously. It had a couple plot lines that I didn't find interesting, but I always enjoyed it overall. And the finale is the best of any show, period.

Anytime somebody mentions that show I immediately go and watch the last 5 minutes of the finale with a box of Kleenex. Stupid "Breath Me" by Sia, giving me all the feels.

You're not alone. I was a blubbering mess.

Watched 2 episodes of "Power" . Not too bad...acting is **** but the premise is enjoyable

Guardians of the Galaxy is probably my favorite marvel movie. Wow.

Guardians was incredible. Far and away the best Marvel movie. Seeing it again today.

The only two minuses in my opinion were some pacing issues early on and Nebula wasn't developed nearly enough. I thought she was the only weak character. Aside from that everything about the movie was fantastic.

That scene reminded me of the Hulk vs Loki scene from the Avengers where you realize "Oh ****, he's on a different level than every other character."

At one point late in the movie I was thinking how non of the action really did anything for me. It usually doesn't in the age of CGI. it didn't in that scene either, but I lost my **** when he smiled. The humor made the movie.

I loved that scene in the Avengers. If I was gonna compare it to one in the GotG I'd say it was when Nebula was in a monologue and Drax hit her mid sentence with a rocket.

Guardians was great and now Abrams and Nolan are up. Its a shame seeing what Marvel Films is doing and then realizing how awful the Superman/Batman will probably be.

Loved Guardians. It blew X-Men DOFP away. Casting Andy Dwyer as Star-Lord was a great call and Batista was great as Drax also. His comedic timing on some of those lines awesome.

I loved the "There's no point in using sarcasm with him, it will go right over his head...." line. :lol:

The Leftovers is top notch.
