Can anyone help please. I can't download subtitles on MX Player. It's saying I don't have permission to do so. I don't know if it's because of the latest update. I have cleared cache, uninstalled and reinstalled it, still can't download subtitles. |

KoiceReloaded:You always over-praise that show.The earlier episodes in its first season were not even good.The second and third(excluding "The Fly" episode) seasons were superb and the show peaked in its fourth season.Episodes one to eight in its fifth season were alright but nine to sixteen weren't. |

Miggs: What are you talking about, buddy? It got good from the get go, and consistently amended as the story and characters developed. The world building in BB is one of the best I've seen, and only The Wire's world building surpassed it, and only just. It peaked at "Ozymandias" (antepenultimate episode), not season 4. Season 5 in general is the best season of Television that I've had the pleasure of visually perceiving. 5 Likes |

Miggs: The Wire would have come good at the top, if not for that dud of a season 5. That epic failure of a season took a lot out of the show. HBO should have ended it at season 4 IMO. The Sopranos had an abundance of fillers, and it kinda reduced the quality, overall. Had more fun watching Broadwalk Empire and Gomorrah than The Sopranos, tbh. Still a great show nonetheless, but doesn't compare to BB in terms of core quality and consistency. Just my opinion though. 5 Likes |

KoiceReloaded: So many series about narcotics Sha. |
Re: What Series Are You Watching Now? Part 2 by Nobody: 4:19pm On Oct 27, 2019 |
urahara: Yup. Doesn't take much to find an interested audience when you do a narcotics themed show. Basically, it's a low hanging fruit. 2 Likes 1 Share |

KoiceReloaded:What was Vince Gilligans' main purpose for creating Breaking Bad?In his own words; "To turn Mr Chips into Scarface".In the finale of season 4,Walters' circle was complete.What then was the reason for season 5?Finding out if he would get caught?The shows creators were never going to allow that.Another grouse I have with the show is how "hollywoodesque" it ended.Walter dying was too easy a conclusion.He should have been arrested by Hank and jailed.I also hated that machine gun in the trunk gimmick. 1 Like |
Re: What Series Are You Watching Now? Part 2 by Miggs(m): 5:33pm On Oct 27, 2019 |
KoiceReloaded:True.The wires' fifth season is not really good but that mainly has to do with the seasons that came before it being so stellar(especially season 4)it was never going to live up to the high standard the shows' creators had set. Fillers in The Sopranos?What episode?What season?The show is a masterpiece.I have watched the series numerous times and searched for any hint of inferiority.I have found NOTHING.Funnily enough,i also consider Boardwalk Empire and Mad Men better shows than Breaking Bad 1 Like |

Miggs: I have no idea what you're on about, bro. You have completely lost me. Either you watched BB wrong, or you skipped a lot of episodes. This IMDb episode ratings of BB will show you how wrong you're about the show. https://m.imdb.com/list/ls009044565/ 3 Likes |

KoiceReloaded:The creator of Breaking Bad Vince Gilligan said he wanted to depict a program where a nice guy would turn into a bad guy.In the finale of season 4 when Walter told his wife "he won" and when the camera panned to the ricin plant in the final shot,it showed how Walter had lied to Jesse that Gus Fring had poisoned the little boy.Walter had completely turned into the bad guy Vince desired. As for IMDB,i don't really care about others ratings about shows and movies.I make up my views myself.I really do like Breaking Bad but other shows are better 1 Like |

Miggs: Well, your views in regards to BB is wank_. It goes contrary to popular opinion. Season 5 is the best, and highest rated season of BB, and yet according to you, it's unnecessary (??). A lot of loose ends were tied in Season 5, like the main plot line(Walter White's) and whatnot. Even at that, Jesse's subplot didn't get tied until this month with El Camino. So like I said, either you weren't paying attention to the plot lines, or you skipped a lot of expository episodes. 5 Likes |

Re: What Series Are You Watching Now? Part 2 by Miggs(m): 7:42pm On Oct 27, 2019 |
KoiceReloaded:Yes.Season 5 was unnecessary.Are you saying Jesse Pinkman didn't become unlikeable in the fifth season from episode nine to sixteen?Throwing his stash out of his car window and being an annoying emotional wreck.The Walter character becoming a God even dying like Neo(from the matrix) in season five episodes nine to sixteen.The Todd character was just meh and his dullness was on full display in the disappointing El Camino special episode?movie?Personally,I prefare calling it a cash grab 4 Likes |

thelastorca: I hope it never comes to pass. It will do nothing but glorify the illicit profession, thereby, inadvertently creating an illusion of a lucrative venture for the uninformed youth. |

Kaycee7: yep or they can first do test run dreamworks style by having a hyena of admirality way movie. KoiceReloaded: would you say the narco tv shows are glorifying the drug cartels? as to an illusion of lucrative venture, we have passed that event horizon a long time ago a series could also show the other side people's lives ruined, business failures etal - though considering the average Nigerians complete lack of empathy, i'm not sue if that will make a difference |
Re: What Series Are You Watching Now? Part 2 by Nobody: 7:39pm On Oct 28, 2019 |
thelastorca: That's exactly my point, yes. Narcos starkly and irrevocably glorified drug cartels. Pablo Escobar was a self-serving sociopath that killed over 3000 people, but Narcos painted him as a sympathetic figure, and goes further to paint drug cartels as robin fucking_ hoods. It depicted the sicarios as stouthhearted commandos that take no shit from anybody. It didn't stop there... It engendered an illusion of a corrupt and drug ridden Colombia, but Colombia was never really that, as any Colombian would tell you. It also depicted cocaine as an elite drug, etc, etc, etc. Don't underestimate the influence these kind of shows have on popular culture. Recently in Mexico, a drug cartel outgunned the Mexican military in a gunfight - something that has never happened in the history of Mexico... where do you think they got the idea from? Narcos edified viewers that drug cartels have the potential to build their own private army by tapping into their tremendous resources. The Mexican drug cartel presently wield a sophisticated fire power that not even Mexican army could match. The HBOs, Netflixes and the rest of the entertainment piranhas don't care about the damage narcotics-based/fraud shows have on the impressionable populace, they just want profit, and if glorifying the vices of a nation will give them that money, then so be it. It's not right, that's what I'm trying to verbally express. 9 Likes 1 Share |
