Well for some reason the creator released a chapter 139.5 a month or so later that showed all the future stuff happening (like Paradis being bombed and the titan parasite still being alive)

This must not not be on Hulu. I think I started watching because of this very thread. Finished it about a week ago. Dubbed versions for sure. Took a solid commitment. :lol:

Since then I’ve watched the live action movie of Pt 1. Not too bad. You really go back on forth on who the good and bad guys are. To me Levi was most consistent if that means anything in this. And had some of the best lines.

Didn’t do any spoilers or explainers so I really had questions throughout. They were mostly answered but a lot of them in totally unexpected ways to be sure.

ETA: I see what you are talking about now. That’s what shows in the credits of the last episode.

Just based on the first 3 episodes HBO should have released 2/week.

What about James Earl Jones?

Never appeared once. In fact he wasn’t even credited in the original releases of the first two. He didn’t think it was necessary since he spent less than 3 hours doing the voice work for A New Hope.

I can think of worse offenses. Couldn’t even picture Trump doing this.

but they didn't seem like a very tightly knit, highly trained unit.

There were some weaker links for sure. I won’t call any of them weak. Part of the appeal of the film is how it stays true to the interviews of how things went down. There was little to no “Hollywooding” it up.

To me there was way too many involved for what they were trying to accomplish. You saw quite a bit of standing around. But they didn’t really know what kind of situation they were walking into when they took over the house - which turned out to be two different residences.

When that guy that lived there walks out after they leave and starts taking in all the damage they left it was almost funny. It really was a screw up.

She just went into "frick it all" mode by the end of the festivities

I took a few other things away from it.

She ended up getting drunk just like she said her mother did at her own wedding.

She got drunk after her daughter’s response to her compassion was “I wish you were drunk right now”. (Pretty cold BTW)

She decided to do what her husband was talking about in his speech and seized a happy moment.

Or you could also say she just went back into rebel mode by putting on a brave face and just enjoying her daughter’s wedding like nothing was wrong.

Proof that they’d be a nightmare as a NATO member.

Addition by subtraction, we don't need pussies to fight.

This. And there very well be some truth in what they’re saying but would we really want anyone in the first place who backs out because their competition got more difficult. Referring to the people other than trannies. The military will be better off in the long run.

I don't even know if insurance is cheaper in Texas. But if it is, and their laws are basically similar to ours, then what is the explanation?

It’s cheaper than LA but still relatively high. So is GA and FL.

But when the issue is affordability you also need to take into account stats like average household income. So LA’s goal shouldn’t just be to not have the highest premiums but more like the US average. And that’s just for starters because LA’s avg income is at the bottom.

More populous states like those also have a better ability to do what the governor proposes our insurance commissioner do. LA just doesn’t have the same leverage when dictating its rates.

Seems BR has been getting more violent while Nola has been getting less so.

Well a bunch of BR’s terrorists came from NOLA.

the giveaway that there was an IED there came when the solitary female walking the street made a loop around their compound entrance.

I was curious how it got there. Something else I wondered about. So the Bradley just drove away?

If Alabama had the same oil and gas resources and refining capacity that Louisiana has Alabama's GDP would be closer to $400 B.

Well imagine if La had a tourist friendly coast and gulf waters.







Seems like they could have changed the name a bit. Like I Know or even I Know What You Did. Then the story wouldn’t have to be confined to the Last Summer stuff. Also when they make movies with the same name it gets confusing in the on screen guides.

Q: When are schedules made?
A: Before the Season

I’ve already let it be known I don’t think the schedule has made a very big difference in Texas’ results so far. But I will say this. If I’m making a Texas schedule that includes Florida, LSU, A&M and Ark before this season began and 3 of those are at their place I’m looking for a way to better split those up. And considering there was no way the conference was making you go on the road to one of those 3 (aggies) this year it gets a little suspicious. Downside is that all gets reversed next year.
