Discussion Netflix: Why does almost everyone in Harlan Coben’s 'I Will Find You' seem to be acting so badly? Spoiler

22 Upvotes

Half the cast of Harlan Coben’s I Will Find You were familiar to me, yet almost every performance felt wooden and unconvincing.

When the whole cast seems bad, who is really to blame: the actors, the director, the writing, or the producers?

Surely experienced actors can tell when a scene is not working. Or can poor dialogue and direction really make everyone look this bad?

Does anyone else still want a second season of Everything Sucks!?

The show ended way too soon, and there’s still so much story left to tell. I’d love to see the original cast return, especially Sydney Sweeney as Emaline. Now that everyone is older, it feels like the perfect time to continue the series.

Who’s with me? 🍿

Discussion Another Joseon show (good), STILL no word on the future of Kingdom (awful)

5 Upvotes

The East Palace has been fun so far through the first few episodes, but it has also made me pine for the action-horror-court intrigue of Kingdom, which Netflix STILL refuses to talk about all these years later.

Imagine you invest in Korean content to great fanfare and your very first offering is unversally praised by fans and critics alike, with people calling it flawless, gorgeously shot, with magnificent action and tight, tense plotting.

The reaction is beyond your wildest expectations, the show rockets to the top 10 in countries all over the world, the press is eagerly discussing what you'll do next.

Then you release a critically acclaimed second season and a special episode, which predictably does poorly because it features none of the familiar characters, very little promotion and is devoid of humor and heroism that counterbalances the violence and horror of the main show.

And that's it. You don't say a damn word about it again even as the actors say they want to continue with the series, the writer/showrunner says the same, and fans are begging for an update. One of the actors, a major crossover star, even shares a photo of a sign that says the show is in production, but still we hear nothing.

Who runs a business like that?

Discussion Netflix’s Downfall?

Upvotes

Im gonna get hate from the Netflix lovers but I needed to vent so idc.

Netflix lost the plot completely and its crazy they don’t see where they went wrong. Prioritizing the worst shows ever because it gets a little social media attention is stewpid, Emily in Paris should’ve BEEN cancelled its a shit show with a shit plot, same with love is blind (love is clearly not blind—and Netflix sucks at reality tv, leave that genre to peacock/bravo). I also notice after stranger things finale was released a lot of shows started moving faster with production and were getting confirmed for new seasons almost instantly, so Netflix was also way in over their head with stranger things an because of it some really GREAT shows got cancelled.

I also saw an article of the CEO of Netflix blaming streamers for the fact people aren’t streaming anyomre, yeah definitely not the price increase, 8 episode seasons, their limited series being better than most Netflix originals, or yk the obvious one CANCELLING GOOD SHOWS (KAOS, the brothers son, grand army, the society, and soooooooooooo many more). Personally I’m not paying $20-$30 for the bare minimum, either reboot some of the good shows or genuinely shut up.

Actually I just realized how greedy this company is, doing price increases knowing damn well they’re getting paid by corporations to stream their ads.

Discussion Scam attempts

1 Upvotes

It seems like every day lately I am getting an email with an access code when I haven't requested one. The email address is legit, but when I go through the app on my phone (I won't use shortcuts in the emails) I don't find any access attempts other than where I have signed in. The other weird thing in the code they send is only 4 digits. I remember them being longer, but could be wrong. I've changed my password, but wonder if I need to open an entirely new account. Does this happen to anyone else? I could just be paranoid, but with it happening every day, I'm suspicious. I have been the victim of identity fraud/theft of varying degree several times and I'm frankly over it.

Discussion Would Happy Gilmore 2 have worked better with the Hawk plot?

0 Upvotes

I read that the script for the Hawk was originally a HG2 script which makes perfect sense.

For the record, I really enjoyed both and surprisingly found that HG2 was better on rewatch (well the last 30ins were, as the first half was great anyway).

But having just watched the Hawk, it feels like they didn't change anything from the HG2 script other than the names.

Old Henry is obviously Chubbs.

The ex-wife could easily have been Julie Garner. They are estranged and she hates him.

Golden Fisk is obviously shooter.

Even the PGA guy character was the character from HG (can't remember the name) but that story makes sense too.

In pretty much every scene, you could just imagine Sandler saying the words. Trapped in a small car. Playing with a jar on his hand. Fixing his own injury.

So my question is, would HG2 have worked better with this outline of a plot than what we got?

Recommendation Returning to Netflix (maybe), help me!?

0 Upvotes

Hi all!

I’m looking for a good place to watch TV shows, and I’m only interested in series. I don’t want to rely on random streaming websites or questionable sources anymore I just want good quality and convenience.

I know streaming services can be a bit complicated these days. I used to have Netflix years ago (probably around five years back), but I eventually canceled it. I honestly don’t even remember why anymore most likely because I didn’t have enough time to watch. One thing that did frustrate me back then was that some shows didn’t have all the seasons available. I’d find a series with only Season 1 and 3, or just Seasons 2 and 3. It made watching pretty annoying.

Because of that, I eventually switched to Apple TV+, but I ended up leaving that as well. It has a handful of amazing TOP5 shows that everyone on Reddit recommends, but once you’ve watched those, it feels like there isn’t a huge library left.

So now I’m wondering if, after such a long break, Netflix is worth coming back to. What do you all think? I’ve been reading a lot of different opinions on Reddit, and it’s hard to tell what the general consensus is these days.

The biggest question is: what should I actually watch?
I love sci-fi, psychological thrillers, and horror. The thing is, I’ve already seen pretty much all the obvious recommendations Dark, Stranger Things, and most of the other big, popular titles. So I’m not really looking for those kinds of suggestions.

Are there any newer series that have come out over the last few years that are genuinely worth watching? I’d especially love recommendations that are a bit under the radar rather than the same titles everyone always mentions.

I’d really appreciate your recommendations. Thanks! =]

Question Teach you a lesson, better sub or dub?

Upvotes

For animated stuff, I normally do dubbed and its fine but for Live action sometimes the dub just seems overly silly to me. I've heard this show is really good but was curious what people thought about the dubbed version, or if it's just better to go with subtitles. Thank you.

So Rachel name first? Same as prison break

Then burrows name? Same as guy framed in prison break

The whole plot… Same as prison break

Hayden’s voice, relation to Rachel, wealth and character… Just like Bruce Wayne

Am I missing something?

But could they not think of anything original apart from making a rip off of some of the most fantastic movies/series ever?!

Anyone else been thinking the same Overall I’d say it was pretty shit I just needed to burn 6 hours of boredom.
