Caaaan, ANYBODYYYYYYYYY... find me.... somebody to love. Recently I saw Rings of Power and the three episodes of the Alien Earth show.

Alien Earth opens with "In the future there are three ways to immortality" and then they proceed to list three things that don't achieve this, including "making robots" as if that means immortality, what? And then they use "miles" in space. WHAT? Whenever I make a space related short story or a pen and paper game or game concept I spend so much time researching space measurements and everything, and here they just don't care.
The only actual problem with the show is it's trying to bring in that modern Alien "philosophical" garbage. Name a single philosophical movie that isn't terrible. Movies can have lots of philosophy but when it tries to be philosophical it's always going to fail, for various reasons and I don't feel like typing a text wall to explain.
There's one scene where this supposed "genius" character says "child prodigies are called prodigies not just because of their amazing abilities but because they are children and therefore have access to vast amounts of imagination." ...No. What? Children are not creative or imaginative at all. We confuse their fascination and astonishment at simple things for being imaginative. There has been hundreds of famous child prodigy musicians. Name a single one that wrote any great famous piece as a child. Their greatest music was usually actually written when they were very old.

And Rings of Power is okay I guess I don't know. It's something that your eyeballs can look at. Which is an accomplishment, this is a 16 hour movie so far, and I watched it all. That counts for something, many things you just can't finish. Although partly it's not so much to do with the skill of the creators as much as it being lord of the rings.
When I watch Rings of Power sometimes I think "this is really good writing, this is a good idea" and so on, but really that's just Tolkien's stuff that I'm talking about.

And I also watched Across the Spider-verse which was also something for your eyeballs to watch but I was disappointed that it ends unfinished, why? IT's not the kind of story that needed more to finish it.

There's a tune in Rings of Power https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MZDaDG9LVzU and the instrumental especially sounds very familiar. Obviously this is just based on an Irish hymn sea shanty or something. Then I was thinking no it sounds like some Canadian folk song, and then I realised yes it sounds like Tiny Fish For Japan https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4RxaUzXriZE

So sad he died before reaching western Canada, the music he would have made for it would have been so amazing.

I guess I just mean BC because he does have songs about Edmonton and stuff.
