Oscar Isaac. He's 5'9"
But I guess if they can make 5'9" Tom Hardy into Bane, they can do anything.

We bailed on Bly Manor. Painfully slow and only made it thru 3 or 4 episodes. Perfectly splendid, not.

God that was a slog. Wish I'd bailed early too. 4.5/10

Like others mentioned, this show starts with promises, fizzles in the middle, and is on life support by the end. Painful to finish but felt like I had to. 3/10.

Yeah he was great.

He could be an interesting bond.

He is English.

Just finished the show tonight. Very glad Haunting of Bly Manor wasn’t the first season of the “series.” I’m not sure if I would’ve given Haunting of Hill House (which I think is a masterpiece) a chance if it was.

Like many have already said, there were very few spooky/scary moments compared to Hill House. I hardly even consider it to be a horror series tbh.

My biggest problem with the season was that I think it was too diluted. I just didn’t really care about many of the characters outside of Owen and Hannah Grose. It wasn’t a horrible season, but one I will never watch again.

I picked it out for my wife because she likes these kind of shows.

I thought the concept was good, but you were right - excruciatingly painful to get through. We made it all of the way, but not without protest from me.

They could have told the same story in 3 episodes, but needed 9.

A rare Flanagan misfire. To be honest, this is probably Flanagan's only misfire.
