scream: season 1

Hey Guys,
as an Fan of the ‘old’ Horror movies Scream, i had to watch the new serie. The movies are fun and horror and can the serie do this too? Of course like a good Scream movie they start the serie with that discussion. Can a slasher movie become a serie and it is totally a yes. Because we already saw it with Harpers Island.
This is also the only serie that never got mentioned. We got a lot about Games of Thrones and other stuff but never the serie that is actually the same genre like no one else.

I think the serie is living about the paralles to the movie and were it is different. We have our main character Emma. In Emmas life is of course a big dark secret, which has something to do with her mother. She is not so sympathic. But Sydney wasn’t either. The murderer is obsessed with her. She has her superficial girl group. The slut – i actually like her very much and she is not really a slut, she just fall in love with the wrong people and the nice girl which is liked every where.
Her boyfriend is an asshole like Sydneys was. Also has he this creepy dump friend. What for me was like how close to they do the serie to the movie.

One part what can just not be lacking in Scream is the nerd. Noah did a great job. I needed a few episode to got warm with him, but i thing this has something to do with the fact that Randy was in the Scream Movies always my favorite Character, even in Scream 3. So Noah had to deal with really high exspecations. But he played himself into my heart. His best friends is also the ex best friend of Emma. So they are all conacted.

We got of course also a reporter and a new guy in town. This serie is not really a horror story. It is more like – Noah told us in the serie – a high drama. Truth be told i am a little to old for this. But the characters are sweet and got into my heart. I didn’t watched it for the story or the drama. Just for the friendship between Noah and his best friend Audrey and the new guy Kieran. It has enough charme to make you watch.

Is the ending a surprise? No not really. If you now horror movies and know how Scream is built up, you totally can tell how it is. But maybe it still has a few surprises. It is not as good as Harpers Island but it is a nice teeny serie with really creepy characters. I love Kieran but i would never talk to him, because he is a little creepy…

DW: Unregenerate!

Hey guys,
Wecome to the 70 big finish main range with the seventh Doctor and Mel. This Story take plae in London 1957 and 2007. In the Doctors time line it is somewhere after Time and the Rani. It must be shortly after the regeneration. This Story seems to have some significant to ‘The Doctor’s Wife’.

Starting

The beginning of the story is quiet irritating. We have a few jumps to people and situations we don’t understand yet. Their is someone making deals with people – like the devil – for research.
The doctor seems like also be test subject and he and mel are apart from each other.

More irritating

The voice kinds of irritazed me alot. Mels voice os very different and also the voice of the doctor is unfamiliar. In case of the doctor is because of the situation he is in -like he is crazy. But mels voice seems so different. For everyone who wants to know it is of course the same voice. But they somehow really feel different.

The end justified the means

This is what the story is about. The scientist want to create something new, for the safety of her kind and all time. Time Lords often have a special way to justify the means or just looking. These people know Time Lords or are they Time Lords? The Doctor is here the bad guy for them. Is security justify these experiments? Louis is an really interessting character which thing that the end is not always justify the means, but sometimes it does. His change and grow is good and he would be a good character to bring back.

After this story i think that i will start the Gallifrey Stories. They are just having the interessting themes.

Hey guys,
This episode of Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. reawake my Ward feelings. Because everytime he starts to like someone this person got be killed. But lets talk about everything else. Because the Ward part is really not so interessting this episode.

Unfair treatment

The way everyone is acting toward Hunter is so unfair and stinks of double moral.May would have shot Ward too when the roles would have be changed. It wasn’t cold hearted or has to do with anger issues. He had a chance to eliminate a threat for the woman he loved. Nothing more nothing less. I don’t know why everyone is making such a fuss about it. Bobbi decided to sacrifice Kara and nobody said anything about her… just one example. Hunter did nothing different than deciding that killing Ward was more important and what save more lifes.

May destroying everyone

I am so tired of May destroying everyone. First she made Skye/Daisy a killer – okay this is a little harsh, but she made her colder and more in controll. This wasn’t the Skye i loved. Now she tells Bobbi that she should let this make her stronger. Bobbi is stronger than May ever was because she don’t let that made her into a angry and brutal woman – what is strong. She is still a good agent and way better than May. I really hope that Bobbi doesn’t let her change form May. Because Mays violence in this episode was way out of line.

Lash..

This wasn’t surprising and right know i don’t see how this can be explained. But after that accident it just couldn’t not be Andrew.

Right know there are for my taste to much lose ends and story that doesn’t fit together. Everyone has is own story… and this is a little annoying. I am really disapointed from the part Lincoln is playing… Coulson is really on my blacklist if he choose to actually go with Rosalinde opinion. She would maybe right. If they ask the Inhumans. But they don’t, they decide form them.

DW: S09x07

Hey Guys,

here we go with the new Doctor Who episode. This Episode is a result of the big Special of Doctor Who. The peace between Zygons and humans are on the edge.

What happend to UNIT and Kate?

I can’t stop asking that question again everytime UNIT is on TV again. I am so happy that the Brig can’t play anymore in Doctor Who because when i see Kate, than i believe that it would be horror what they would do to the character. Kate as the daugther of him should be smart and understand better than anything the danger and the mistakes that can be made with Aliens. But her solution is attacking them. Her solution is ending the peace. Her solution is ignorant and dumb. What they say is just stupid nonesense? This is not nonesense this is a group of Zygons that want the whole earth to know about them. This what was totally clear from the beginning. Listing would be amazing and would actually stop alot of problems. Of course UNIT is going on single missions. Really Kate alone on a town the always talk about? Than again Clara leading a military mission?
I am sorry. I beginn to hate would UNIT become in New Who. UNIT’s people were smart and wanted to protect the earth from danger. They were ready to sacrifice themself, but they weren’t ignorant. The weren’t against aliens. Because their scientist was a alien and they know it. The Doctor was their friend… they did act on different occasions with violance but just when nothing else seems to work.

Good idea

The Story idea is good and of course right now acutal. But the episode is lacking of everything. The Doctor, Clara… UNIT and logic. And don’t answer me with it is Doctor Who. Of course many episodes are not logic but most of them are logic in the Doctor Who logic but this? I want to say something good, i want to like it. I love Peter Capaldi as Doctor but the storys are lacking so much…
This situation they created is so real and than the distory it with this unrealistic actions.

Osgood the questionmark

I never got what everyone liked about her. She is a fangirl and? She gots on my nerve with her Doctor clothes and her fangirling. I wanted characters that question the Doctor. Characters that make him think. Characters that say no to him. But Osgood does nothing but fangirling. Is she intelligent yes but she doesn’t use it to think for herself. She is just saying what the Doctor is saying like everyone else. I am tired of these characters. Not just Osgood… Clara is in the end not different, her trust in the Doctor is so big, like Amy or Rose. Even Martha und Donna didn’t question him enough but they actually question somethings…or say no to him in Marthas case.
I am sorry but episodes like that and Osgood are making me sentimental… but i want classic who back. Their were also characters that trusted the Doctor over everything but not every companion was like it… now it as to be a girl and in love with the Doctor… or talking about the underwear of the Doctor. This wasn’t funny or anything else… just unnessassary.

AoS: S03x05

Hey Guys,
let’s talk fast about the last Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. episode before the new one is there. This is episode everything i was afraid of and alot better than i thought. When i watched the promo i was afraid that we will have a episode just with Jemma and that is acexatly what happend. But the episode functioned.

Charakterstudy

This episode is more a episode about Jemmas Charakter than anything else. The life on the planet she landed alone is not easy. She needs to find water and food and the night will not end, but until she met Will nothing else than Jemma suriving death through hunger is all we see. But somehow it works. Jemma is talking the whole time to Fitz. She doesn’t sees him but it is in the end the same thing Fitz did after Jemma left.

The evil

After she met Will. We see that something else is on that planet. Something evil like he says. Will is a sympatic character. Everything that happend is logic. The emotional story between them is really good. As a Fitzsimmons Fan i am a little disapointed but right now Will and Jemma seems to function better. Fitz my baby is of course after hearing her story ready to help her. Because it is his Jemma.

I don’t have more to say about this episode. But it was good and worked for me, even i want all the other characters back. Jemma is not one of my favorite persons.

Hamatora: Season 1

Hey Guys,
when i visited the Connichi 2015 i looked into the serie Hamatora. The first to episodes were alot of fun and seemed like it could become very dark. So i bought it. If it really holds what i thought it promised me we will see here.

Simular

The first thing that came to my mind was that it is very simular to Get Backers. What is actually not a bad thing. I loved Get Backers. It was a funny serie with amazing characters and a very dark theme. Everything a story needed the only thing that was bad about Get Backers was the fanservice and that sometimes the sidecharacters had more story than my favorite maincharacters.
The setting is very simular they seem to be bancrot all the time, have mysterious powers and have their office in a cafe and are detektives. Even the two main characters are simular. Nice is a lot like Ginji. He is sweet, don’t care about money, he cares about people, and seems a little unwordly but just at the first look. Behind that they have a deep life experience and knows that he is important.
Murasaki is the one that looks at the money and is cool and don’t show much of his feelings, but cares alot behind that mask.
From the way the ‘enemy’ is acting it reminds me of Psycho Pass and that is not a bad thing either.

Two teams

So there are these one team Nice and Murasaki. Hajime is a girl that is often with them. She is always eating something and is the reason for alot of funny scenes. I am sure that she has powers too, but in the first two episode is nothing seen of it.
Than there is another Hamatora team – Bithday and Ratio. The team dynamic is simular. Birthday is the one that is always wants fun. He is flirting, eating and making magic tricks. Ratio is the silent guy that has problems showing his feelings – like they are alien to him.

Minimum Holder

That is the name for the people like the Hamatora crew – people with powers. It seems like these powers are no secret. Some people have this power and are so different to the other peoples. It also looks in the first two episodes that a few doctors seems to work with them. Which mostly isn’t something good. There are people like the Hamatora crew that take these powers to do good things and of course people they always met that using them to do bad things. So at first it looks very simple and the cases in the first to episodes seems more like fun cases but the cases in the second episode makes a turn and become very cruel. Also we learn from the first episode on that there is a serial killer that kills only Minimum Holder. So alot of potential to become more.

The Enemy

The one that seems to be responsibly for many things like the synthetic minimum holder going on his account. But is he responsibly for the murder? He is a little crazy but this is what makes it so interessting. He is working for a world were everyone is the same. He wants to make people stronger. But he opinion about strenght is not really right. For him people how can kill people are the strong ones and the people who want to punish them are the weak.

Relationships

Birthday and Ratio are pretty good team and always together. They have a conaction… they depend on each other. Ratio needs Birthday to live his life the way he does. Without Birthday he want fall into the deep black.
Alot of the stuff that is spoken about is about sameness, about being equal in their abilities. Can someone who is not a minimum holder be equal to a minimum holder and can they be friends. Can they conexist and give each other what they need? This is what this is all about. Art seems to not have minimum and is Nice friend. Sadly we don’t have much about the relationship between these two. I really hope we will have this relationship explored in season two.
Murasaki and Nice has also a really interessting dynamic. It seems like Murasaki is fighting to get Nice attention. Murasaki was always the best and than Nice came. Here again it is sad that we didn’t saw much about the relationship between them.

The End (with spoilers)

The serie is about tolerance, about being different and what it can mean. It is about human nature, about power and what to do with it. It is about choices and the serie is making a job. The serie is fun and gives us themes to think about. It is honest and warm and also cold and real.
It is sad that the relationship did come a little short but i hope this will come in season two.
And this season i need to watch now -right now.
How could they let it and like that? To everyone who had watch it (no spoilers for season two please), why do you think Art shot him? Do you think he really shot him? Why is Art still alive?

DW: S09x06

Hey Guys,
i know i am very late with the ‘new’ episode of Doctor Who. Next week and on the weekend i will have the early shift so i will have time to actually write you the article about the next episode on monday. But now lets talk about this episode. It is not that i have really much to tell about it.

The Doctor with out his better half

I loved it when David Tennant was without Donna in Midnight. The whole episode just worked because of that fact. When we had that with Matt Smith i was someone of the few people that hate it. I am totally not a fan of Craig and after he defeated the change of the cybermen i really started to dislike him. So now Peter Capaldi is on an adventure with out Clara. In the last episode the only thing i alwalys loved about the season was the developement of Clara and the relationship between them. So this isn’t in this episode. For me it was really not so good without her. But the episode is not bad. We had better but also worse.

She could be everyone

Ashildr is the important person in this episode. The episode function because it is about the feelings about the character. Ashildr is living over 800 years now. What happend to the lovely nice girl form next door. Because this is the really important point here. She could be everyone. It could be you or me or the girl from next door. She is calling her now ‘Me’ because every name is dying with the person she knew. That me, that she hasn’t a name anymore, is for me a sign that it could have your name. This is why the episode is working for me. What happend to her isn’t something special. It isn’t the story about Captain Jack Harkness with his complex to save the earth. The Doctor doesn’t influencend her. She was just herself and the Doctor did this to her. This is how we would be when we would be immortal.

Big question

But one time more i am asking the question why the Doctor did this? He lived that life. He lost so many persons, he loved. It brokes his heart to leave Susan behind. It hurts him that Ian and Barbara choose a life without him. A part of him died when Adric died. The lost of Rose totally made him a mess and she not even died. He knows how it hurts to live this life without people that are the same. He knows what it made out of Captain Jack Harkness and how it broke Jacks heart. But still not even thought twice about doing this to her. Really i don’t understand that. This is not saving her and the Doctor knows it but he still does it. But the worst is that he did it after he remembered want Donna told him. This was not what she ment.

Same old Story

‘Me’ is bringing us back to a very old storyline. Saving the world from the Doctor. We had this story before. This is the reason that Torchwood came to life. Torchwoods function was to protect the world from the Doctor. Now we have Me/Ashildr that wants to do the same. Of course she is right that someone needs to protect the world from the Doctor because he often forgot what sacrifice are nessassary.
We saw that she is already looking after the Doctor and Clara. I am not a big fan of that storyline. We had Torchwood and that was enough.

DW: Arrangement of War

Hey guys,
Here we go with he 57 advenure of big finish main range.It takes place somewhere between the stories ‘Rain of Terror’ and ‘Ticker than water’. I actually would say that this takes place for the sixth Doctor after Peri and before Mel. He travels with Evelyn a character big finish created.

Evelyn

Evelyn is a companion i would love to see in the tv serie. She is an old professor of history and apears the first time in the big finish main range adventure “The Marian Conspiracy”. The relationship between her and the doctor seems complicated. I read a summery of her story. I understand it like someone tried to remove her family from existince. In order to save her the doctor tried to eliminated the influence and she somehow created a paradox.
But she starts traveling because she wanted to learn more and see the history with her own eyes. Important to know is that before this story the Doctor could save a girl and that is something Evelyn is carring with her.

We are not getting involved

The doctor promiswd evelyn that this time everything will turn out okay without their help. Evelyn need time without saving tje World, without the doctor. Of course it is impossible for the doctor to keep that promise. It started so small. He just gave a man an adivise.
But these advise can lead to war and invasion. So the doctor starts a dangerous play which of course goes wrong.

What this is really about

This story is about relationships. How do you make a relationship work? Can we change? Should we change? With what decisions can we live with and with one we doesn’t. Can we give up our love, because it would better for the country? Can we acctually live with that consequences? What is more important love or the country and how can you make that choice.
Evelyn is struggeling with how the Doctor handles things, who he let not show how it hurts him. She is not sure she can live with the consequences anymore. She can’t change him and she can’t change herself. She realize that they have to find a way to live with each other.
We also see the Doctor break down and this is one of the saddest thing that happend. The way the love story ends. The way the Doctor reacts to tragic events, how Evelyn get how the Doctor works and what he needs. They learn to understand each other better. This story is just the life.

Hey Guys,

here we go with the new Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. episode. There was good Ward action so i actually liked the episode. So will first addresse the elefant in the room? Okay lets start again with Ward.

Meet the Director

For me it is fun to see how many things he got from S.H.I.E.L.D. He calls himself the director and so are a few things still their. Also i think that i like the relationship that is developeming between Kebo and Ward. He needs someone on his side he can trust… even when he goes down that way. I still want him to be happy… i will always stay with Grant Ward. But that is not the theme here. So Hunter is meeting the director. Some people thought that it was to early but i am happy that it didn’t take longer. Because Hunters storyline was boring and he and May still don’t have chemiestry.
Ward played his joker with Andrew in danger really early but this makes me hope that the storyline become alot better.

Right decision?

Hunter make the decision to go after Ward even when it could end in Andrews death. Here we go again. Is it the right decision or the worng decision. One life against many. We all know May would have done the same when she was in his place. This is what S.H.I.E.L.D. is about. Make big decision were no one is really right.
Hunter made the decision which was right for him and that is what we should accept.

Work together

Coulson is still working with ATCU. I still don’t understand why he is doing it but okay… Of course everyone of them has secrets. So they never really can work together. But Skye/Daisy is not happy with that allience. Mac seems also not like a big fan of that.
The found out how Lush is finding all the Inhumans and that he is actually not always a monster. That he still has a human shape. What is really suspicious is that Skye survived again. He seems never go against Skye.
This is something that speaks for Andrew as Lush. But i don’t think that he is Lush. I hope he isn’t.

I don’t have big hopes for the next episode. I hope we will see more than what happend to jemma…

Torchwood: Fall to Earth

Oh my god guys,

this new story ‘Fall to earth’ of the big finish Torchwood serie is amazing and our lovly Ianto Jones is back. My life is back to perfect. That Torchwood and Ianto is back and i waited for it since the moment he…
The last time i thought about were the stories are taking place. Now we know that Tosh and Owen are also still there. From what Ianto tells it has to be somewhere in season one after Lisa.

Ianto on his own

Like Jack told them in the first adventure, he left to actually go after the conspiracy. The others are left to do the normal Torchwood stuff and Ianto is alone trying to find something important for the Conspiracy. Of course everything goes wrong. Why did he do it? Because he wanted to be accepted by the other what is one indicator for season one. Also he kinda want Jack back – even when it is not really told in this story. But when his phone ring he assoumend/ hoped that it would be Jack.
So he is on Board on a spaceship with all the other passngers died and something is really wrong with the ship. Ianto is trying to get the ship back undercontroll, but of course he has no idea how to do it.

Lucky accidents

Just right on time Ianto got a call from the call center. The woman Zeyneb wants to buy him insurance. Ianto get her to help him. Together they face a lot of trouble on the way. They have an amazing chemistry. She and Ianto have alot in common. So just the two of them works really well. It is much fun to actually listen to them. I want so much more of Ianto Jones right now.

I don’t want to say more, just listen to it.
