So I originally started watching this when it came to Disney Plus UK and got up to the beginning of episode 3 of season 2 before I kinda just stopped watching it. The main reason for my break was because they killed a certain character.
So fast-forward like several months, I just finished watching The Devil's Plan on Netflix and on a whim of trying to find something else to watch, I just decided to go back to this show literally a day ago. Binged it over the course of 2 days and glad I did.
I wouldn't mind another season but I don't think it would happen as with the majority of K-dramas, they're usually only confined to a season or 2 and rarely go past that.
Absolutely loved this show that I had to watch the final 3 episodes as soon as they came out.
I'm more than satisfied about the winner but huge respect to the other finalist.
Watching the show, it felt like ghe contestants were hinting that there were other iterations of this show beforehand but not necessarily called The Devil's Plan.
From the comments, I've deduced that I need to watch The Genius and The Time Hotel.
The Genius. this one essentially feels like a rework or a slightly different continuation. also Liar Game (this…
Liar Game, Kaiji and Alice in Borderland for the fictional side of things. Squid Games as well but Liar Game is kinda the closest thing to this show for fiction.
Liar Game just comes to mind when watching this one. The second day's main match, Race Rules, felt really really ugly. I like Don Jae, hope he does well.
I haven't seen Chimera, I've only seen her in The Glory and The Real Has Come!, she plays evil seductively well. I genuinely can not see her as a main female lead in a proper romance series, she just exudes a certain energy at least from what I've seen.
Funny thing is, this drama left a strange impression on me...but the OST is permanently in my mind ;)Great soundtrack…
Ragnarok, is that the Swedish one? The live-action one? I haven't seen it but I want to. Is it worth it? I think I'll watch it in it's original language too as English dubs in general just don't do it for me.
This is much better, a satisfying ending, unlike Gannibal....
Yup, Gannibal leaves us on a cliffhanger and I genuinely hope we get a second season. However, I think Gannibal was genuinely more terrifying than Revenant though.

haii, did you watch ms marvel? i know it isn't bollywood, but ms marvel is from pakistan and the show contained…
I'm sure it's like a 3 to 5 minute part of the movie, to supposedly "celebrate" South East Asian culture.
Comics, I kinda like them but do not put too much time into them as I grew up on anime/manga instead. In terms of Marvel and DC, I'd watch Spiderman, X-Men and Batman shows from the 90s on a Saturday. I didn't invest into comics much as that would have required to spend money on them and they were kinda expensive back in the day at least from what I remember in the UK.
As for the movie itself, I don't have much faith, I hope it's decent. The ones I did not like or was just disappointed in Phase 4 were Eternals, Dr Strange 2, Thor 4, Black Panther 2, Moon Knight, Hawkeye and She-Hulk.
Black Panther 2 was okay but I felt like they could have done more with Namor and overall was just a weak movie in general, the first one was fantastic. Eternals and Moon Knight were just mediocre, Moon Knight should have been far darker and grittier.
Thor 4 was just tragic, I had some seriously high hopes for it but it legitimately turned into a kids movie, let's give some of Thor's powers to kids and see these mini-Thor's go all over the screen and kicking ass.....it just felt so childish.
Dr Strange 2 just didn't do it for me, I absolutely love Benedict Cumberbatch since his days playing as Sherlock Holmes, which I wish he goes back to. The movie was meant to be epic and carry on from Wandavision essentially but it just kinda fell flat and felt bloated and hollow at the same time with many characters appearing but with not much substance.
Hawkeye to a lesser extent than She-Hulk as I did enjoy it but was not pleased at how Kingpin was portrayed, it was just way too cartoony. I personally think the She-Hulk show was the worst one out of everything that MCU has done and I absolutely hate it in how they portrayed Matt Murdock, it genuinely hurt as I consider Netflix's Daredevil as the best superhero live-action show ever based off on a Marvel or DC character.
From the current phase 5 stuff, I've only seen Ant-Man 2 and Guardians of the Galaxy 3. Ant-Man 2 was another it was okay but it's pretty much a kid's movie at this point. I literally saw Guardians of the Galaxy 3 yesterday as it joined Disney Plus UK yesterday, it was fantastic.
I've not watched Secret Invasion yet but I keep seeing a lot of negative things about it, I haven't watched the said videos or read the articles but in general there is a lot of hate for it. I will still watch it but I understand that they essentially ruined the concept of the comic book arc of Secret Invasion.

I did watch Ms Marvel, I appreciated very much to be honest but it was obviously geared towards a much younger generation. I liked the fact that they showed a little bit of how the British Empire used religion to cause division that unfortunately still exists today.
However, the "Bollywood" dance scene shown in the trailer seemed to be not set on Earth but rather a different or alternative planet, it just looked cringe.
Most of the planet think of Indian cinema as just movies with a bunch of songs, which is the majority, sometimes the song is there to tell a narrative or showcase an "item girl". I grew up on watching Kollywood, I like it sometimes but it's definitely not my go to medium.
