It's the dunk tank.
This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.
Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.
Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.
Rule 3: No sectarianism.
Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome
Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)
Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.
Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.
Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml
Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again

Idk I liked it. Wasn't the greatest piece of television ever but it was fine. That said I am a TV treat baby rube that doesn't read many books.
That's fine, there was a lot of great stuff there - as mentioned the casting was really good - it's the same with Altered Carbon and Battle Angel Alita. They managed to make something that was enjoyable, unless you're a particular type who read the source material and can see all the ways they made superfluous or actively inferior choices (though plenty of book readers were still able to enjoy them for what they were, the baarstards).
At least with AC and Alita it seemed to be the understandable error of cramming in cool material they liked from later books because they're afraid of only getting one season, rather than WoT's showrunner having a truly incoherent understanding of the strengths and weaknesses of the books and their own ability to correct them.
