DonS 3,063 Posted July 21, 2021 The wife and I have finished up our current shows and are deciding what to watch next. I know it's a couple years old and was well received by the critics (for what that's worth..). I read the graphic novels and saw the so-so movie when it came out so I know what to expect. Has anyone here watched it? Is it worth the time investment? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

IGotWorms 3,297 Posted July 21, 2021 Yeah it’s pretty interesting. You won’t see much else like it out there. It does suggest the KKK and actual white supremacists are bad, so some people evidently can’t handle it. But they’re kunts 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MDC 5,875 Posted July 21, 2021 The graphic novel was great. I agree that the movie was so so. Whats the series based on? I thought there was just the one comic series. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But it’s not Germaine to my statement about actual white supremacists. There was a time when actual white supremacists got the blame for being white supremacists. But now if you’re not a self loathing cuck (look in mirror) who goes along with the belief all white people are W S’s then you are branded as such. Didn’t you hear?

I just looked up Raised By Wolves. Ridley Scott and the dude from Vikings? Sounds interesting. I'll give it a shot. Edit: just watched first episode.

Yeah, I’m really missing out on another cartoon being passed off as cinema. I didn’t work in a comic book store. I was doing other, masculine stuff. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fnord 1,119 Posted July 24, 2021 Excellent show. Occurs in the same universe as the graphic novel, ignores the movie. Happens roughly 30 years after those events. Really well done. Fantastic cast. Regina King is a ridiculously good actress. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That one was really good too, but the way it wrapped up kept it from being one of my favorites. But I'm now to the point that I'd probably watch Regina King doing laundry and enjoy it. She's fantastic in everything she does, just like Katherine O'Hara. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
