Can we stop the arguing here for a second to agree that this needs to happen the next Matrix movie?

Man… I have to vehemently disagree. Every bit of the money is on screen. You’re living in a past where the die hard fanboys freaked out over a picture and tweet that made y’all go nuts about how cheap jt looked, then could never admit you were wrong once the show actually hit screens.




Well… that’s because it’s NOT the Peter Jackson world. And holding a TV show to the standard of an Academy Award Nominated and Winning film is ludicrous.



This is its own thing and its own interpretation of a massive story. You either gotta get over the fact that it’s not Peter Jackson’s LOTR or stop watching.

Or..maybe because it's 3000 years earlier.
Compare our own world in 1824 to today... only 200 years but it's a completely different world.

Anyone watched S2, Episode 1 yet? It's on my list for the upcoming weekend. I honestly had a little bit of trouble getting into this last season, but I'll give it another try.

Not yet but I plan on watching this weekend. I personally liked the first season. It had some odd scenes like the slow-motion horse riding but other than some odd stuff like that I enjoyed it.

Very much enjoyed it. This is sooo much better than WoT.

WOW. Just watched S2E1. Every drop of budget is on the screen. How the hell can Amazon prime keep this up?

By the way I was disappointed to find out Nazanin Boniadi quit the show.

Yeah ive been meaning to ask her about it, but she did speak on it on social media. She's heavily involved in charity (big on the rights of women in Iran) and I imagine the grueling schedule didn't help, but yeah, I was surprised too.

About to give this a try even though I’ll have no clue what’s going on.

Sorry to hear that - I liked her. I was also surprised to see that the character of Adar was recast, although the new actor, Sam Hazeldine, seems like a worthy replacement. I liked the first episode and will watch a couple more soon.

Episode 4 was the first stinker of the season, although there was some good stuff in there, too.

I thought there was a lot of fan service. You know what I'm referring to.

But I did enjoy it -- this season has been nothing if not entertaining.
