i've seen Werewolf boy and did love it. great movie.

it didnt really get much attention when it was airing.

i really wanted to like it. as a kid the live action Tarzan movie and the jungle book were some of my favorite stories.

my first issue was the idea that after a decade or more this extremely wealthy family with resources to burn couldn't find a missing kid who stayed in the same general area and routinely came close enough to to other hikers to pilfer their belongings. the opening is the basis of their story. if they didnt care enough about that to make it remotely plausible it's a sign that bigger dumber plot holes or even lazier writing is up ahead. also how DOES he keep his whites so white?

mostly though it was the acting. even if you completely remove wolf boy and adjust expectations to suit the Taiwanese style the acting is just not good. I've seen more convincing performances out of my 11 yo's drama club.

i attempted both bromance and prince of wolves. dropped bromance when only 3 eps in they couldnt keep their story straight.
"oh, be his friend b/c he doesnt have friends, btw here's his life long best friend say hi." doesnt bode well for the rest of the story.

prince of wolf i just couldnt get past the first episode. very cringey.

not offended, just making a joke.

i did really like mars but there was just too much angst for me.

you spotted the typo, johnny tell him what he's won!

i enjoyed in time with you (gave it an 8) but i dont generally recommend it to people b/c the plot drags-a lot- and the pay off doesn't make up for it IMO. the rest you mention i have either dropped or not watched.

i have submitted a Love Songs play list, dont know how long that will take to be published though.

i have noted the beanie magic on several occasions. for some reason asian men almost universally look HOT in beanies.

i find that's rarely the case for me. as i said i did try Pinocchio twice. Goblin may get a second chance somewhere down the line as back ground video when i'm doing something else b/c i know at least there will be beautiful music and a few moments of awesome.

IOTL unfortunately i feel no inclination to complete. i can see where it's going, have confirmation from other users that i am correct and would rather use my time watching stuff i will enjoy.

oh i knew that was going to happen.

if healer had been less glossy, had actors that struggled and had a less talented stunt/ action sequence team then we wouldn't be having this discussion. all the quippy dialogue in the world can't make un-jumble a jumbled crowded plot subjected to bad editing and pacing. but it can still be A LOT OF FUN

when one looks at the editing, writing and story telling (the very core, the internal structure upon which all other things rest) it is sub par, awful in fact. which makes it even more impressive that the actors/ production team managed to knock it out of the park the way they did.

objective-(of a person or their judgement) not influenced by personal feelings or opinions in considering and representing facts.

what's wrong with it? my husband and i have the same age gap. in march we celebrate our 14th anniversary.

Woo Jin!

i agree. they've established pretty well just in the first episode that this is who he is. not giving up yet though. i've sat through worse b/c of my love of JJ lol.

if i'm presented with a legal way to watch i always do, even if i have to pay for it.

that's what VPNs are for mwaa haa haa

have viki or DF picked this up yet?

the only reason i know about this is b/c someone told me. i looked into it, when you see it in context, it's pretty rude statements, like, bro do you know you said that out loud? they can HEAR you lol! esp considering how careful korean entertainers usually are b/c the netizens are BONKERS. he can be a jerk. i dont have to like him as a person to enjoy his work. i was just explaining my statement to someone who asked. that being said we all say not very nice things at home, or in private or something rude slips past our verbal filter in public, but when we do we KNOW it's rude. the fact that he seems not to get that, b/c he said it multiple times and then tried to say it was a joke, that's what makes me say "yes, he's a jerk."

that is weird i never noticed before but even though the pic is obviously h im at the same time it looks nothing like him.
