    look i agree mostly.

    Zombie tv shows/movies... we are utterly saturated and is ****ing dull

    Vampire ****e - dear god if someone does one more teen angst vampire show....

    super heros: i mean ant man... and so forth and so on... utterly saturated. the tv thing has been exhausted imo.

    The thing about all of these is they all boil down to a few short sequences of good stuff and extremely long dull and repetitive whining and moaning and inter relationship stuff. All these shows end up as soap opera style relationship shows.

    BUT you stick a hot woman like gal gadot up on the giant screen in a skimpy(ish) outfit its golden.

    So no one has seen The Punisher yet? Was tempted to give it a go as it doesn't seem to OTT.

    Only got a few episodes in so far. Its very distant from usual Marvel, maybe as there is no superpowers or mystic eastern martial arts, alot more low key on the whole comic book genre. Its more like a conspiracy thriller show (like 24 (when it was good) or Homeland)
    Also alot more violent.

    Still bugging me with the Netflixs series that there is a lack of links with the bigger MCU, even down the even being down to being able to say names like, Hulk or Iron Man, (notice they never actually call them by their proper names) or even mentioned the whole thing about SHIELD. Its like Netflix are reluctant to promote the MCU further than they have too.

    TWD was very good again this week

    This episode and the last have been the season's best ones. As much as I liked the battle scenes in the opening few these last two have had v good character development and tension. The Saviours meeting fleshed out the main players there more fully

    Liked how they explored Negan's past and the Saviours' inner dynamics this week, there hasn't been any of that so far really and it was an interesting and refreshing counterpoint. There are more layers to this than have been shown so far and the new perspective was good. Would be good to have a flashback episode either in the series or as a one-off special to explore this, like Negan at the start of the apocalypse and the creation/formation of the Saviours etc

    They've also developed the Fr Gabriel character really well and his scenes with Negan inside the RV and their exit were cool and pretty badass. Then there was a nice funny scene with Rick and Daryl

    Had a thought on how to describe Punisher. Its like the Bourne films but without the global scale, all based in New York. Lone Wolf protagonist gets mixed up in and pitted against Shadowy Government agencies involved in illegal actions
