I know... completely goofed that one didn't I... no defence man, just human error.

These all sound brilliant Gavin! I'll be getting on those. As for Hotel Rwanda, Blue Ray, Amazon. That's the only suggestions I've got.

They’re closeted homophobes lmao they think that gay representation Is “normalising” gayness as if gay people don’t exist already. The use of this word also completely shows that they don’t think being gay is “Normal” or should be acknowledged.

We weren't outraged, it was a discussion point. To be honest I think you comment proves the points we were making. 'Joe Locke is friends with trans actress Yasmin Finney'. That's great, but it has absolutely nothing to do with the show. You have to understand that I wanted to LOVE this show. The content, the characters, Agatha herself had SO much potential, It was Billy Maximoff All Along, not Agatha. They gave us 30 minutes of Agatha's backstory in the final episode - that should have been what the entire series was about. I'm complaining because I'm genuinely gutted, not because I didn't want to like it. And you certainly wouldn't hear me complain about all the other shows, such as Wandavision, which was an absolute masterpiece.

@@lozzieklairby that logic you must’ve hated wandavision too right? We only saw 30 mins of Wanda’s backstory during the finals episodes of Wandavision. The rest of the show was following alongside her during her journey of healing and overcoming her crippling grief. Similarly Agatha All Along followed Agatha thru a journey with small tid bits of backstory. I don’t see how you could be so critical of her backstory when there’s not much else they really could’ve shown. They showed the key points of her backstory just like they did for Wanda. It was still their shows becuase we followed them through the events of the show. Billy probably got just as much screen time in this show as Agatha got in Wandavision. Investing screen time into a character that we will continue to follow into their own stories isn’t a bad thing. Being fixated on Gayness when no one else is, is a bad thing. Being queer is normal and the show did a great job showing the lives of Gay characters. Don’t you think it would be weird to include gay characters and completely remove every action and behaviour that makes them gay? Gay people aren’t suppressing themselves for homophobes comfort especially in their personal lives. They act gay and do gay things and support trans rights especially if it’s in private and in their personal lives and guess what? We follow the personal lives of mutliple gay characters so big whoopty doo who would’ve thought we’d be seeing them do gay things?

@@lozzieklairsidesnote** I think you should reflect more on the Nuances that come with Adapting stories. No matter the story being adapted it will always be influenced by the medium by which it’s displayed. Actors become they’re characters and the characters become they’re actors. That’s just how it’s always worked. We obviously know that they’re two separate beings but realistically, parts of the actors Behaviours/image/persona then becomes part of the characters. Wiccans MCU adaption is a different character to he’s Comics counterpart, a cinematic portrayal is formulated by the actor, writing and source material. But a large portion of what makes that character what it is, is the Actor. They’re deciding factor in how we perceive that character. This goes for all characters adapted to the screen. They will always be influenced and partially if not mostly created by the actor in conjunction with the writing. So to say the Joe lockes personal contributions and ideals don’t influence the character and don’t have anything to do with the character or show is incorrect. You’re just looking for a reason to hate queerness. Even when it’s apart of the characters lives, you act like it isn’t so that you can say it has nothing to do with the show and is being rubbed on your face?

@@kobycorunna5397 I'm bisexual myself so yeah, you're way off. I appreciate and respect your other opinions but unnecessary accusations are out of line.

@@lozzieklair just because you’re bisexual doesn’t mean you’re incapable of projecting internalised homophobia onto others. A lot of hate comes from within the community and we need to keep each other in check and be willing to look inwards and reflect.

That's a valid opinion! And I get it for sure. But for me, I was so looking forward to seeing Agatha's backstory build into something more. I like Billy's story, but that's not what I wanted from this, personally. I feel like Billy's story could easily have been series 2.

There are plenty of others with the same view, especially industry professionals so we're definitely not on our own, though I appreciate we're not in the majority haha. I just really wanted more substance and I'm genuinely gutted we didn't get more from Agatha's backstory, there's so much to tell. I think the majority have just been pretty easily pleased if I'm honest. Appreciate you trying and not coming after us just because our opinions differ though! :)

you should get that checked out by a doctor mate

so if she can't claim him, why does she even bother to tell him at the end "you can go"? The plot falls apart after a minor scrutiny.

​@@TheSilverScreenDudes He doesn't know she can't claim him. He's a kid and just being respectful and listening to her.

@@Proudmary7 no no, if she can't claim him, she has no need to tell him (dramatically) you can leave. There's no need for that line. And that highlights the wider problem with the series: too many loose ends...

We definitely don't need to watch it again, there are too many plotholes in this entire show that let it down - it had the potential to be SO good. Like Nico said below, why did Rio have to make such an issue of 'letting Billy go'? Death is neutral, death doesn't fight. The whole depiction of Death in this how is a farce.

wow... you've clearly watched the review then! Want to point out what was said that was misogynistic? Go on, we'll wait...

What mysogyny?? I'm literally a woman in the video with this opinion 🤣. And we're definitley not on our own, outside of the easily pleased fans, professionals in the industry and many critics very much share this opinion.

disgraceful.... Medical systems are meant to be there to help people not, not bankrupt them..

It's absolutely incredible!!! Can't wait to hear what you think once you've seen it

You should visit Milton Keynes because superman IV was filmed there

@@Stevececil777 that sounds great! Will add that to my list!

You are most welcome, I thought you were incredible in this movie!!! It really is my movie of the year!

explain how a subjective medium like art can be objectively bad?

@TheSilverScreenDudes it's subjective in enjoyment. The quality of aspects however is not. The writing and repurposing of lines is objectively bad. The interpretation of Tolkien is objectively bad. The geographical nature of the characters movements is all objectively bad. The pacing is objectively bad. Most of the acting is bad. The majority of plot points are non sensical. The effects, for the most part, are great. Those things are not subjective. That's like taking two people illustrating. One is a pro, and one can't actually draw and stating it's subjective if he can or not. There's nothing wrong with people enjoying it. But when you take on Tolkien, you have to know your stuff. Firing Tom Shippey early on was quite telling.

@@MrSRA13 I'm sorry you're not enjoying it more

@@TheSilverScreenDudes not to worry! We all have our preferences and tastes :) I'll stick with the original trilogy and the books 📚

@@MrSRA13 my friend, I'll be right there with you. All far superior than this series

Damn, see I'd flip those scores the other way round personally

agree with all of this!

well, it's a numbers game with shows like this... Over the course of the next week you'll see a load of reviews on this channel from the London Film festival come out, featuring TRULY GREAT movies. The problem is that the masses tend to not give enough attention to coverage of the indy movies, so in order to keep the channel healthy analytically, we (unfortunately) have to watch stuff like Agatha, coz unfortunately that's what people watch and want to discuss. It's about being part of the conversation. Just like we're conversing now ;)

You understand how reviewing works, right?! 🤣

ok, it's not in the same league as the 89 movie, that's untouchable.. But it sounds like you're a long term fan, so you'll definitely enjoy this!

I know right bro? But did you catch the reference to that song? "You haven't got the touch... or the power..." right at the beginning?

I mean... the opening of the Lord of the Rings (both books and Jackson's movies) talk about the 19 rings for elves, dwarves and men. You are going deep into lore here which no visual medium has ever done. That's not an amazon problem. I think you're being a bit too finicky about the lore here

​@TheSilverScreenDudes finicky really? Just because the movies said they were given to the dwarves and men doesn't change the fact they were originally for the elves.

@@JoseH-fz4ef sure, and what does that add to the plot? Not much... it';s a detail that the movies, series and even books themselves don't pay attention to. It's not relevant

@TheSilverScreenDudes nor is your point. People love the IP and are passionate about it. People wanted it a certain way and they were largely disappointed. If that were the case the audience would be more accepting of it and this wouldn't have been an issue but Amazon didn't hence why the clash exists. RoP is a nice fan fiction but it's not Tolkien. Peter Jackson followed the book and lore, RoP did not and decided to pander to a narrative and that's fine but don't attack the die hards and the fans that liked the original and how it was written. However Amazon decided to change things to fit a modern audience and not everyone is going to accept it. They're trying to do the same with warhammer 40k. When they decided to put the blame on the fans they decided to attack the core audience. The people that actually pay the money. If the fans disliked it then they should have gone off of that instead of doubling down and attacking the fans, much like you're just doing. As children we used our imaginations to play games and have fantasy and escape reality. As adults that has changed to video games, movies and other forms of media to escape the crapshow of life. Those companies that are taking the reposnsibility to make the entertainment should listen to the fans because that is the audience that at the end of the day are going to care about the IP.

@@JoseH-fz4ef where did I attack the die hard fans? That would be a bit strange considering I am one of them lol. There is absolutely nothing in what you've just said I disagree with. In fact (if people actually listened to the video instead f rage typing - that was in not directed at you, more to others), they would have heard week after week I was highlighting the many faults off the show, but still saying I could find enjoyment in the show despite it's many faults. The only thing you've said I thought was irrelevant was the rings originally belonging to the elves. If you're now talking about fan enjoyment, obviously you're not going to find my arguing that.

53% of people ike it

​@@TheSilverScreenDudessource?

@@JoseH-fz4ef audience score: rotten tomatoes. But I suppose you'll now discredit that because baby doesn't like Rotten Tomatoes and it doesn't fit the "nobody likes it" narrative

@TheSilverScreenDudes calm down little girl, I wanted to see it for myself and verify. Calm the hell down.

@@JoseH-fz4ef you calling me a little girl meant to be some sort of insult? lol... bro, call your mum and tell her you love her

Well said! I think as long as respect is shared, and as long as outlets aren't being purposefully antagonistic, there would be far more room for interesting debate, instead of name calling. I really appreciate this comment!

completely agree, WandaVision for us is the best disney+ show that Marvel has created

Watch.Full.Interview

Hope my positivity is as contagious! You clearly need a bit of good vibes!

nope

ooooorrrr, just someone with a different than you ;)

@@TheSilverScreenDudes Are you a writer for Amazon’s Rings of Power????

@@FingolfinNolofinwe I wish! That paycheck would be great!

@@TheSilverScreenDudes with that attitude you would fit right in. $$$ over quality.

@@FingolfinNolofinwe If I can provide for my family, money would always be welcome! Reminder: it's called showBUSINESS

Nah bro, I'm not one of those who would ever lie about media I consume, that's lame. Being 100% honest, after my first read through of Lord of the Rings when I was 12, I did attempt to read the Silmarillion but I think I was too young... didn't manage to get through, so no, haven't read it. And likewise for unfinished tales. But here's the thing (and I believe this for all media): My enjoyment of a show/movie, shouldn't be determined by what other media I've previously consumed. That can definitely enhance, for sure, but it shouldn't set what I'm watching within strict limitations. It's just a show.

You actually think Amazon even know I exist?? Let alone they believe I have enough clout to merit being bribed? You must see me as more influential than I actually am (I'm flattered, but dude, I'm a nobody. Amazon aren't aware of my existence!). I'd love to be successful enough to be bribed though, that would be awesome! Seriously mate... you're tragic if you believe this stuff. Or you're 12 years old?

@@TheSilverScreenDudes we know they don’t, that’s the point.

@@EuphoricLabyrinth so what the hell was your point then? lol

PAHAHAHAHA - Clearly you don't know how those kinds of partnerships work, nor the laws and rules that require you to state when a post or review is sponsored or partnered. PLease edicate yourself before throwing around accusations 🤗

Wow... You have too much time on your hands.

I would explain the concepts of silent majorities and vocal minorities. But at this point you are already too far gone. I’m sorry this tv show upsets you so much.

Nerdrotioc has over a million subs you silly little cultist 🤣🤣🤣 I'm a freakin' nobody who's only been running a channel for a year. I'm flattered you're pulling our stats up for comparison though. I must be doing something right! ;)

LOL, someone having 'loads of views' doesn't make them correct 🤣🤦‍♀

I don't like the show at all but comments like these are incredibly stupid. Popularity doesn't dictate quality. So many comments here mentioning "room temperature IQ" but there couldn't be a better example of that than this comment right here. IMO both RoP and Nerdrotic are sludge content

"this guy" (Nico btw) read the books once a year, every year between the ages of 12-17 and used them as a coping mechanism/scapsim to deal with my parent's divorce. Maybe next time try not bring your own hateful, judgemental baggage to table. 53% of audiences like this show, and 85% of critics like it. Check Rotten tomatoes if you count me. Next time, maybe look online and take a step back before you both say something incorrect and make a judgement on someone. Only thing disgusting here is your reflection in the mirror my friend.

@TheSilverScreenDudes if you're quoting rotten tomatoes for accuracy, you have been poorly misled by some other corporate shills. By and large, Tolkein fans think this show is a simple money grab and not in any way respectful or true to Tolkein's work. This isn't art, it's calculated ROI derived from marketing and DEI politics. It's activism masquerading as 'fanship''. Besides that, the acting, plot, script writing, production does notnlove up to this insane budget. Objectivly its a bad show and will be canceled, no one wants this. Just stop.

​@@wmgjonathanThe 'Tolkein Fans' you speak of are nothing bit gatekeepers with narrow minds.

@loxleyproductions gatekeping to what? Tolkein's actual work? I'm happy to support any faithful adaptations. But this show is an absolute abomination.

@@wmgjonathan good job not addressing the degree to which you put your foot in it by assuming I hadn't read the books. Now (coz I clearly have to educate you...) I'm not talking about the critic score on Rotten Tomatoes. I wouldn't open that floodgate with someone so fragile, the "critics are paid" soundbite would come too quickly... I'm talking about the AUDIENCE score. Are you actually suggesting that audience members on RT are paid to write positive reviews which equate to only 53% enjoyment? Take moment, sit down, and just think about what you've said: audience members are paid to write positive reviews on RT, and yet the score still turns out to be 53%. Go have a ciup of tea and think before sounding silly..

Hater alert. Or would you prefer NPC alert?

HAHAHAHA WE WISH! You holding coins from me, Nico?? 🤣🤣🤣

ok

At least you have an informed opinion to criticise it! Although, I think you're clinging to detail too much and not alowing for artistic license. Bear in mind, not everyone watching it will know the books so well, I certainy don't. Maybe that is what is stopping some people's enjoyment of it?

you really are hysterical (or 12 years old?) if you think critics (or aspiring critics like myself) are paid for positivity. That's not how it works... Get a clue

How to say you gatekeep and are precious over art without saying it.

@@loxleyproductions Thank you man. Yeah I do what I can.

I hope he's getting paid for this (he's a shill) because otherwise he likes the worst show and adaptation ever

@@profestia I like the worst show and adaptation ever. 😁Wish I was being paid for this... would be nice! I'll keep trying and one day maybe 😁

@@TheSilverScreenDudes Nothing worng with liking it, i think its mediocre.Slow,sub par dialogue,really like some of the actors though,kinda like sauron would like him more if they stopped tryna ship him with galadriel.

I bow to your superior intellect

@@TheSilverScreenDudes it’s fine that you liked it but if you can’t understand why it is trash then you prove my point

Ollie the first has shit for brains. The people slating it are drinking the cool add from the stupid pre written scathing UA-cam nerds obsessed with slating anything that isn’t “perfect”. This show had me emotionally invested and I couldn’t take my eyes off it by the end. Who cares about silly nit picks. The critics actually love it check out they rotten tomatoes score and IMDb. Get a life and learn to think for yourself.

@@OllieTheFirst oh no, I completely understand why someone wouldn't like it or think it's trash, you've missed the point here. I said every week as I was reviewing each episode, that there are many faults in this show! MANY! I'm preaching that I can enjoy despite its faults. You are attacking those who find enjoyment claiming they lack intelligence. I bow to your clearly superior intellect

@@TheSilverScreenDudes I’m not calling you dumb mate I’m saying that the people who see no faults in it and love it clearly aren’t very smart because it’s riddled with them
