sooo.... we STARTEd to watch this 2nd season...got 2 eps in, and at THAT point, after the first 2, were just like....ehhh. Bored. Thought those 1st two were just bland, rather poorly written, really corny in spots and... so UNexcitingly presented...just no 'creativity', no...fun. i mean, I'm not saying EVERYthing has to (or should) go the way of "Legion" with its creative ways of telling a story, but i'm saying at LEAST remember that we ARE telling 'comic book superhero stories' here...and with 'THAT' in mind, it SHOULD allow the directors/creators to go at least a LITTLE out of the box with their PRESENTATION of the story....have SOME friggin FUN with it people, cmon! Its not that difficult or more expensive to present something in a kinda creative/cool way.
soo...we watched those first two on that Friday release, and honestly were so bored we almost tapped out there....sat on the rest till yesterday, when we begrudgingly said 'well lets give it one more shot and watch another episode'. Started watching episode 3 and ended up binging straight through episode 7 in one day....
GLAD we stuck around after first 2, because 3-7 FINALLY peaked our interest. FINALLY there was some 'fun' in the recipe. Yeah, those 3-7 Eps were all genuinely solid...
so yeah...were IN now...hoping this season does the opposite of last season...hoping season two starts out weak but closes out strong...(whereas season 1 started out strong and ended on a weak note...yes, I'm STILL bitter about Cottonmouth getting nixed too early...)
