I really liked the movie this is based on. Although I wonder why Hollywood is obsessed with the idea of superhuman waifish female killers? No offense to female soldiers and law enforcement, but if someone spends millions of dollars to create a 105lb super-killer they are doing it for fetish purposes.
 
OK, I just finished season 3 of "Vikings" a couple nights ago & i'm hyped to get into season 4 after watching the season 4 trailers & promotional material. I just gotta wonder, why isn't "Vikings" as big & as popular as "Game of Thrones" & "The Walking Dead"?

I always thought dudes who think "Spartacus" is a better show than GoT, just because "Spartacus" has way more non-stop action than GOT, are being ridiculous. But if some folks feel that way about "Vikings" over GoT, I couldn't blame them. Micheal Hirst is a beast when it comes to screenwriting/producing historical dramas based on medieval Europe.
I have been a huge "Vikings" fan since season 2 after all the rave reviews MGM and the History Channel had recieved in the build up to its launch season one. It has long since filled the "Game of Thrones" longing in me while waiting for the next season to air. They really did a good job getting the historical aspects produced properly and I will earnestly urge all fans of medieval history and warfare to tune in via History On Demand or kodi if you have it. It will become an addiction and I really like what they did with "KnightFall" too which I'm also looking forward too season 2
 
Lol. True. That is whats supposed to be funny about it tho. Clever, sly but clumsy, and disorganized dude that seemed to make up everything as he went along and it somehow worked most of the time.

Lol


Just me, but if I were part of a pirate crew I could overlook all the clumsy and disorganized shit the captain did, even if he couldn't shoot a pistol or handle a sword worth a damn, as long as he knew his shit when it came to planning & executing raids on ships as well as keeping other pirates and the military off our asses. You can't do that, then how or why are you in charge of a ship?
 
Vikings and Spartacus are both missing a sense of the fantastic. Without fantasy or sci-fi elements, the real world settings of those shows aren't quite as compelling for some people.
I'm only speaking for myself as a historian of some academic capacity but historical fiction vs historical fantasy is what separated "The White Queen" from "Game of Thrones" and I really loved and still rewatch TWQ as much as I do GoT ~ both have magic and superstitious lore but White Queen is much more subtle whereas Thrones is extremely explicit with its magic and sorcery. Love them both honestly

Jack is more like a versatile con man
masquerading as a captain.

I think he chose to be a pirate because that was the best score of his day. He sucks as a captain, but he can somehow get out of any situation even if he wasn't supposed to be in it to begin with. That's quite valuable when you consider that not everything can be avoided.

He sort of reminds me of bugs bunny. Bugs will trick the shit out of anyone..... lol

It's like they refer to him comically as a Captain

Yeah, I got the whole con man aspects of the character. His being a ship's captain that had a crew willing to follow him is what took me out of the movies as a whole.

If he would have had some type of legit tactical or leadership skills to play on the con skills, I could have bought into the character more. Had his being a buffoonish klutz been a calculated facade to keep other people off guard the better to sucker them I would have been all in on both the character and the movies.
 
Hollywood's $100 million remake of "Ghost in the Shell" completely bombed at the box office, losing at least $60 million. It's not alone, though. Virtually every Hollywood anime adaptation is critically panned and doesn't make any money. From bad casting to terrible plot changes, here's why Hollywood anime movies are so bad.

The only Scarlett Johansson driven flick I liked was Lucy.

She hasn't really been able to carry a film on her own. That's why I'm not really up for this Black Widow movie they keep teasing.
The nannie diaries was okay. I'm surprised she never hooked up with Chris Evans they basically came up together
 
HBO dropped a teaser touting its original content coming in 2019, which also happened to reveal the first footage from Game of Thrones Season 8, as well as the highly anticipated Watchmen TV series.

The cynical part of me can't help but be concerned that I don't see any "big hits" other than Game Of Thrones on HBO's upcoming lineup. I know they think Watchmen is going to be big (and it might be) but I think TV audiences can only stomach so many "dark" superhero shows.

I think as long as you do it right it and keep things fresh it can work.

I'm bored with it.
