A resolution to the couple from the marble game

101 and 212 A fitting way to go
The motivations of the last guy to die
456 - supersmart or forgetful?
The value of a marble
218 no surprises, still a dick
So many issues with this game

- Changing the rules
- I thought these were all supposed to be fair
10 minutes of us trying to fix the game
How to kill tension half way through the story
Why would the VIPs want everyone dead when the are betting for people to survive?
The show is starting to fall apart
Forced messaging?
The VIPs only use was showing how handsome Handsome Cop is
The aesthetics of the VIP lounge
Awful English from the "English" VIPs and how to take you out of the scene
Spending time with the VIPS, or how not to use time efficiently
The Purge films and how they show the Elites
Having Handsome Cop learn about the background of the games, but not the audience is cheapening the story
001 Clearly the architect
Short 1 season shows need to have tight writing, there is little room for error
218 as a character is really well done
Dev tangents on current media and bad storytelling
We sure hope the next 2 episodes are perfectly executed

Join us as we discuss topics such as:
You're Older than me!
Light as a feather, stiff as a board
Drawing personal spiritualism/mysticism from popular culture
Weird seeing Neve Campbell being a shy character
Archetypal and stereotyped characters
Not considering the consequences
Nancy having one of the most solid character arcs
Characters representing imbalance
Rochelle is best character
Spells represent the character's motivations well
Absolute power corrupts absolutely
Noble intentions for pure purposes
Intentions of the spell defining if light or dark
Are we the baddies?
No remorse in the end from Bonnie and Rochelle
Drew is still not a 16 year old girl
Solid concept and idea that may have been produced into a teen coming of age movie and gathering of demographic representation opposed to being unique and independent characters
Was the movie Teen-movie-ized?
Fifth Element was awesome but it's a terrible movie
Fast and the Furious... They shot a car into space!
Nobody likes Luke Skywalker.  Leia and Han are actually interesting
I'm like totally Bella
Coming into Sarah at the end of her character arch, no real character development 
Even Luke had a character arc
Down the block, not across the street
Obviously midiclorians
Such Edge, Much Wow
Perhaps I didn't like the film, perhaps I didn't like the representation of all my ex-girlfriends all in one place
Remember things being very different, no hug off to save the universe
More like Bestella Effect
Devon hates first names, confirmed
Ballerina went to the inner-city school and learned hip-hop dance
Top tier facial acting and performances
Rochelle was the most believable character
Being both in the head and emotional space of the character
We want full realized characters and not tokens
Characters that are deep and not just a demographic
Life is simple and the characters are complex but it seems that film making these days makes the characters simple and the story complex

This is Gucci... I got it yesterday
Ramrowan best rowan
Roman/So Mi - foils?
What was the purpose of the final fight scene?
Drew confused the club scene with John Wick's club fight scene
Police office storyline a bit off-putting
Spoiled by Hollywood explaining every little thing
Disconnected and disenfranchised man finding some type of meaning
Chef kiss to Won Bin's acting
Not a revebge flick
Jason Statham was in Ghosts of Mars
Jason Statham is an institution
This man is quite attractive... oh, protagonist 
No loose ends in the film
Milk thievery!
When a person with a tragic past meets someone with a tragic present 
You dun messed up
No happy ending
If only her mother was as good of a parent as weird pawn shop guy
This piece will be emulated for years
Let's do a period piece but we'll have a protagonist that's unexpected
Hollywood hasn't run out of ideas, Hollywood has run out of heart
Belle was a perfect example of a move showing passion
Critics and reviewers are the worst
Why is Drew talking about The Sandlot (again)?
Darnit Ashley, why aren't you around when we're complaining about the industry?

Why you gotta be like that?
Should have been a series
Fun and pretty but the rest is a mess
Video game of Mirror's edge but over water please
Battlecour made sense based on the world building
The world was not as isolated as it was made out to be
World building needed some more context 
Film like a treasure chest tattoo
Anime but taking queues from Marvel
Little Mermaid Plot
Didn't get to explore the interesting facets of the world
Every major anime character trope from 30 years
Was Battlecour even important to the plot?
Trail mix not a cake or a cookie?
Bubble should have been two unrelated movies
Not the right stage for The Little Mermaid
Someone's got pony's on their mind? No, just slivered almonds.
Wait... Hibiki was sound sensitive?
Parallel storytelling between the Little Mermaid and bubble was an interesting touch
Uta was not a Mary Sue and had a weakness
He wants to kiss da girl
OP-ness, heh heh
Bubble using the combination of the Hans Christian Andersen and Disney versions of the Little Mermaid
Don't do it, don't become sea foam
Love her? I don't even know her
She wants to kiss da boy
Characters were not interesting but the relationship was
This film is adequately fine
Shin is the only developed character in the film
Bubble Uta saved child Hibiki from the bubble exploding Tokyo tower

Join us as we discuss topics such as:
This was a Breather episode
Did they want Saffron to be more of a character
You can tell Saffron has a similar connection to Mal and Inara
Potential future seasons
Reboot (Cause we need to date ourselves)
- Seasons 3 and 4 were really good
Wash and Kaylee giving the play to Mal and Inara seemed odd
Out of character to trick Saffron?
How one line can change the entire framing of an episode

Mal:
- Attacking the person vs the profession
- Clearly hasn't said anything to the Crew regarding Jayne's betrayal

Inara:
- Jealous of Saffron?
- Very similar as characters
- Stable but lost

Saffron:
- Did she actually care about the Duran?
- What is making Saffron cross the line with stealing from Duran?
- Making her a much more complex character

Jayne:
- Dim, not Dumb
- Building redemption arcs
- Struggle with his place in the crew, repercussions from Ariel
- Loyalty is a foreign concept to Jayne
- Needs to learn to be introspective and forgive himself 

Simon:
- Strong faith in River's intuition/perception
- Showing his backbone with his confrontation with Jayne

Wash:
- One day he might have a character
- Why does Kaylee and Inara stand as characters when Wash does not
- Funny man make joke
- Why is he on the ship?
(This may be the most we actually discuss Wash)

...

Tell me about the war grandpa. No not that one the second one!

Failure to use tension in the finely crafted way of the first film
Isabel should have been used as an audience proxy like how Kate was in Sicario
Swiper no swiping!
Hola Soy Dora!
I hate tourist season
Narrative cohesiveness lacking in several areas
Hail Hydra
Do you know what it took me to make him?
Did Matt create Alejandro?
We love Alejandro... but he should have perished in the film
Poorly constructed ending
No proper semblance of progression of time
What is Victoria Justice's real name?
Sean Connery in The Rock was James Bond
I love Fifth Element, Face-Off and The Rock
Darth Jar Jar theory is best theory

So many A-Plots not enough S-Tier Plots
Journal was a missed opportunity to explore Lestat's character
Turning vampires used to understand the modern world of the time
Worst concert of all time
The Vampire love, sensuality was missing in Queen of the damned

Join us as we discuss topics such as:

Season 1 of Arcane
Drew finally listens to literally everyone
When the source isn't accessible, yet very approachable
Focusing on story first
Show Don't Tell! and not treating your audience like idiots
Making unique and memorable characters
Tropes are not bad!
Having motivations tie and build on each other
How to show trauma in a character
Miscommunication done well
How Binge watching vs Slow watching and how it can affect perceptions
Way to make Partner a confusing term..
Piltover and the Lanes storylines mirror each other very will, which keeps the pacing strong
Watching the stakes getting smaller for a global scale, but much higher on a personal scale
Somehow Drew spoils himself again...


Vander:
Sense of responsibility and paternal instinct
Clearly instilled his morals down to the kids
Not selling out, but doing what he can to protect everyone

Silco:
Similar motivations to Vander, but on the opposite side of the coin
Was he trying to take Jinx relationship from Vander, or actually caring?
Jinx/Silco have one of the most honest relationships

Vi:
Did the voice actress miss the mark late in the series?
Flat in presentation, but not in the writing
Clearly cares for Powder, and has always fought for her
Vi becomes the successor to Vander in her own way

Jinx/Powder:
When does Powder end and Jinx begin? Was there ever a Powder?
The leadup to the final scene was built up perfectly
Vi is all that was keeping Powder Powder
Beautifully tragic character

Cait and Vi:
Make the relationship make more sense. These characters have known each other for like a day
- Is the relationship just bait, or is it founded
It's okay Cait can fix her
Does Vi really reciprocate Cait's clear feelings?


Jace:
Idealist to near Tyrant: Road to hell paved with good intentions
Character is not as compelling as others in the show

Mel:
Clearly using Jace
Would be nice to have more time with her
The interaction with the mother, helps recontextualize her character

Victor:
Taming of Jace and instrumental to the peace that Jace offers

Heimdinger:
What did he see and was he involved with the previous magic incident?
Ekko clearly opens his eyes to how the undercity actually is
Clearly always an academic

Predictions/Wishlist:

Drew:
- We will adjust to new primary characters, and we will move away from characters like Jace
- Vi will be followed, Jinx won't be quite as prominent
- Viktor and Jayce splitting, and becoming side characters
- What kind of take over from Mel's mom?

Wants:
- Vi teaming up and going after Jinx for accountability
- Caitlin being a more flushed out character and some independence


Dev
- Time skip
- Vi and Cait on a man hunt for Jinx
- Vi will not be trying to save Powder, but hunting Jinx
- Jayce and Mel dead from the explosion and that is where we will have opening for other characters
- Mel's mom will take over Piltover
- Viktor will also try hunting Jinx, and Vi will have to deal with him


Wants:
- External threat that forces Piltover and the Undercity join because of a larger threat
- Build a buddy cop feel so Vi and Cait can grow from each other


...

Guys will play gay chicken and it is surprising how far you can get

More action orientated, to the detriment of the relationship/intrigue beats
Ambessa (aka Mel's Mom) will be our intrigue driver against the Black Rose

Cait:
- Going full authoritarian was unexpected
- Committing just some minor war crimes while chasing down Jinx
- Nice to see her taking more center stage
- Her family was more humanitarian than originally shown in Season 1
- Could have used some more buildup to the tactics being used
- Moral compass clearly broken in her trauma
- Has become the opposite of what she wanted in the first season

Vi:
- Doesn't have a full race in the Jinx hunt any more
- Relationship with Cait feels more solidified
- Will she need to stand against Cait, or back her? 
- Will there be emotional conflict surrounding "saving" Cait?
- One dimensional or straight forward/Stoic


Jinx:
- Feels like there is more Powder than therwas in Season 1
- Savika relationship looks fun
- Clearly Jinx is still latching out for stability with her

Savika:
- Nice to see how she protected Jinx
- Tempering force for Jinx?

Jayce/Heimdinger/Ekko:
- So how is the magic going to affect them
- Science bros be science bros
- Will they have gained or lost abilities? 
- Ekko will need to be pushed to the forefront
- Ekko is Angela Confirmed

Viktor:
- Needed to go his own path
- Trying to clearly help
- Will he become an antagonist somehow?
- Is he in control still?
- Will he be a mirror for Cait?

Hexcore:
- What is happening
- Clearly affecting all HexTech
- How will this interact with the Black Rose, and the tested Shimmertech

Join us as we discuss topics such as:
Finally our emotional beats and intrigue
Maybe moving a little too fast though
Time skip can help character changes
Great visual callbacks
Silco being recontextualized
The feels with the reunion with Vander
Drew dons the tinfoil hat regarding Maddie. She could have been so much more
Maddie is barely in the act, but still has more characterization than Cait
20 minutes talking about one fight
Please have the third act episodes be longer
Is there set up for other League of Legends stories?
We confuse the word "Season" and "Episode" way too much


Jinx:
- Nice to see her step up
- Jinx/Powder discussion continues
- Feels almost too stable
- Always looking for family
- Has taken the place of Vander as a symbol; can she live up to it?
- Jinx not taking the shot on Caitlyn
- Being more calculated, instead of just being chaos
- Will she break again, and can it be directed?

Vi:
- Should have been a little more aware of how Zaun sees Jinx
- Obviously has lost herself
- Still craves a relationship with her sister
- Jinx getting the better of her in their fight
- Is there going to be a relationship with Cait? Is it deserved?

Isha:
- A missing piece that helps Jinx stabilize
- Also helps bring Vi back to her senses
- The innocence lost with the sisters
- But Isha....
- Was she the only thing hold Jinx together?
- The Real MVP

Caitlyn:
- Still not really more added to her as a character
- All rage, no character
- So unclear, it was hard to know who she sided with (Vi or Ambessa)
- Will her perspective of Jinx change?

Jayce:
- Where are the science bros?
- What was brought back
- Viktor or Jayce - was Jayce in the right attacking Viktor
- Was the Hexcore trying to restore itself through Jayce?

Mel:
- Is the black Rose actually an antagonistic force?
- Apparently a wizard
- Is there a half sister, or is that Mel?
- The puzzle dungeon - No leadup showing her as a thinker that way, or indication of seeing magic?

Join us as we discuss topics such as:
Almost all of our predictions did come through
Drew wants to be love knifed
Not as strong as season 1
Pacing issues, but unsure how to tweak specifically
Lots on "Music video" shots
Season, episode - Same thing right?
Good effort to wrap up what should have been 2 seasons worth of content
Arcs not linked causing things to feel cohesive
Cait is so dissatisfying
How should the Vander/Vi/Jinx fight have played out?
Too much story that the audience knows, but not the characters
Naruto tangent
Don't play League of Legends, not even once
But why time travel? And Multiverses
Why did we have to stop the fights to have the Jayce/Viktor fight
Why was this the big climactic fight? Jayce and Viktor were NOT the emotional climax the show was set up for
Something Something crappy Snyder cut
We talk ourselves out of how satisfying the ending was. Too much spectacle
Ambessa, Viktor, Vi feel resolved; Mel, Jayce and Jinx not as much
Animation quality dropped or stylization? 
Honestly thought the stream froze with some of the choices....
Great album. but more songs than Carol and Tuesday
But why sex scene?
Scenes should always be changing, if no dramatic change, the scene isn't needed
If this scene was continued, we should have been seeing the scars Vi built up and contrasting to Cait
Drew has no expectations
There is no fall damage in league of legends

Vi:
Can't give up on her family
Was Vi right about Powder actually there?

Jinx:
Was she making the right decision to end the cycle?
Nice to see what could have been with Powder
Would have been nice to see more of the impact from losing Isha
Conversation with Silco was fantastic
Nice to see the organized Chaos Jinx brought to the fight
She did cut her hair

Cait:
She was ther I guess
Best conversation/characterization was with Jinx
Seems like there might have been some consequence with her crimes, but no
I guess she lost an eye, but that just makes her cool I guess?
There is no reason to believe Cait has changed
SHOW DON'T TELL!!
Dev gives a TED talk on Cait's (lack of) character
She was important for Vi

Jayce:
The leg break made Dev thing Jayce was the sorcerer
Never felt like the main story

Mel:
The Black Rose feels incomplete
The story feels like a setup for a different season
Ekko:
Payoff not great, cause we didn't see it
Nice to see him saving Jinx, but not developed 
Should that have been the real Hemdinger?
Ekko's time powers didn't really have any impact (outside of saving Jinx)

Viktor:
Interference in the fights was a disappointment
Glad he was the bad guy, but also the sorcerer/good guy?
If Viktor never went back in time to save Jayce, he would have solved his own problem..
The mind tap seemed forced, previously everything was tied to Shimmer
Ambessa should have been using Viktor, not the other way around
But why not care about Skye? She was such a great character

Join us as we discuss topics such as:
- Why a season 2?
- Drew is cautiously optimistic
- Devon (is a hater) identifies structural issues with the season
-- Well placed flash-forwards or flashbacks may have strengthened the structure
- Characters in season 1 had more clear motivations
- Comparing Squid Game against (the far superior) Liar's Game and Battle Royale
- Were the first two episodes just trying to fix holes in season 1?
- Is season 2 about meta affect of the game on people?
- Devon was not being dismissive, just had a very different perspective
- Season 1 being a ship in bottle was its strength and made for a contained story, where season 2 is not so contained (and possibly strong)
- Drew prefers psychological horror opposed to gore
- Drew really dislikes the movie The Host
- The game's parent organization's moves don't make sense
-- There was no reason to care about the organization's motivations in season 1
- Episode 1 and 2's quality will be known based on the following episodes
- Felt like an American view of a Japanese thriller, opposed to a Korean view of a standard Asian story trope
- More interested in what they will try to do with the series rather than what will happen

456:
- Obsessed with stopping the game, no matter what
- No longer a goofy bad-dad
- Used the pink hair to fit into the crowd by standing out
- Was likely never not being tracked by the game's parent organization
- Did 456 win freedom along-side the money?
- Should not have been a primary character in season 2
- Butt shot!

Handsome Cop:
- Intentionally demotes himself to somewhere where evidence stands
- Character does not draw investment from the audience
- Little was accomplished for deeper characterization for all the screen time
- Handsome cop is handsome
- A good candidate for primary protagonist

011:
- Audience point of view into the Squid Game hosts
- Cleary cares about people/children but can kill without hesitation
- The triple layered deceit leading the audience into believing she would be a contestant
-- The situation was not similar to what occurred in season 1
- May explore what she is capable of through anonymity of the game and mask

Recruiter:
- Kept mistakenly being referred to as The Front Man
- Were Bread and Lotto and Russian Roulette games a way to characterize 

Predictions:
- Devon will be very sad about this season
- Will not be about the individual games, will not be a primary plot driver
- Second in command/number 2 henchman was flipped by the recruiter
- 456 will either become the Black Mask/Front Man or Die
- This is just the Korean sect of the games, there will be an American one or African one

Hopes:
- Structural re-alignment
- Character focus shift away from 456 and onto 011
- The paramilitary force is removed or are plants
- At least one participant is sympathetic

...

RIP Isha

Join us as we discuss topics such as:
- Why we always gotta be right
- Drew is sad because the potential was squandered
- Drew came around to Devon's position
- The series length and slow moving story work against the show
- Felt more rushed than Arcane season 2
- Episodes 3 and 4 did not improve upon season 2
- Why does everyone in game know someone else?
- Were Drew and Devon gentle
- Drew gives a lesson about KPOP!
- Fly Me To the Moon Remix was genius
- Why does Drew love Making The Band style content?
-- Produce 48 was fire
-- Drew keeps plugging Produce 48
- Season 2 is not as popular as Season 1 was
- Somehow Drew is feeling more negative about this season than Devon
- Drew is man enough to admit he was wrong
- Season 2 is half over and nothing has happened
- What was the point of the first vote?
-- Leavers were shown as weak, cowards, victims


456:
- No one has any reason to believe 456
- The environment would instead inspire people to be suspicious of him

Handsome Cop:
- Blew his chance at being compelling
- HC and the paramilitary team won't amount to anything
- Makes more sense in Season 2 than Season 1
- Good thing he's pretty

011:
- The most intriguing character
- Does not think highly of the contestants

222:
- Jo Yuri!
- I*Zone was my jam
- Drew made Devon watch The Secret Story of the Swan
- Drew would not have recognized Jo Yuri if not for the internet
- Not buyable that 222 is pregnant
- One of the characters that is interesting

230:
- TOP!
- RIP Big Bang
- Drew made Devon watch Fantastic Baby
- The irony of the drug usage line was hilarious to Drew
- 230 was too over the top
- May have rewrote the character because TOP auditioned
- No one saw 230 kill like 8 people?

120:
- Squid Game showed respect to the trans character
- Happy that they did not make 120 a campy comedy character
- Did not resort to stereotypes
- Easily the first pick as a team-mate because of qualities shown

Frontman / 001:
- What is he going through?
- What are his motivations?
- Joining the game wasn't a twist
- Why is he joining the games and not dealing with Handsome Cop?

Predictions:
- Frontman joined the game to understand 456
- Handsome cop won't amount to anything
- Might influence painter-father's survival
- Painter-father's survival/death will lead to the downfall of the organ harvesters
- Everything setup in Season 2 will have unsatisfying payoffs
- Won't have a night-time brawl scene
- 222 will outlast 230
- 456 will live
- They will all vote out or they'll pull some BS

Hopes:
- Drew and Devon stop watching Squid Game Season 2 and start watching Produce 48

Join us as we discuss topics such as:
- So little occurred in episodes 5 and 6 that we cut our series by an episode
- Season 2 was only half a season's worth of story
- A whole lot of putting things out there and not a whole lot of tying things up
- Felt like just a poor rehash of Season 1
- Drew poorly tells Dev about Korea's mandatory public service
- Fever dream of a kid telling you a story.  Story of "And Thens".
- No excitement for Season 3
- Season 2 should have been 30 minute episodes to pace it better and cut out unneeded material
- It seems like the show is allergic to character growth

456:
- Motivations and actions are understandable
- He would not sacrifice the few for the sake of the many
- Lucks out on everything he does

Handsome Cop:
- Was even more useless in Season 2
- May have even ha negative/backward character progression
- Nothing was accomplished by HC or the paramilitary force

011:
- The season successfully got the audience to not care about 011
- Doesn't seem to have a path to redemption

222:
- Needed more lines

230:
- TOP and Big Bang were awesome but Thanos was not
- Suspect that writers or producers changed TOP's character to be campy and over-the-top
- Very akin to wrestlers moving to acting

120:
- Directly saw the outcome of her choices and was the only powerful moment in the season
- Was a great moment with even better acting
- Refreshingly did not treat the trans character as campy or comedic

380:
- Death season was pulled directly out of Saving Private Ryan

Blue Lock
- Drew an Dev talk about Blue Lock for 20 minutes
- Succeeded in every way Squid Game season 2 failed
- Motivations and character progression make sense
- Contains character growth
- Actually describe the purpose of bringing the people together


...

Thanos = Comedic and annoying Joffrey from Game of Thrones
