Hi Sandy. You're not real perceptive, are you.

"Going around trying to get ppl to share your opinions scream insecure and hate," says Sandy, as she goes around trying to get me to "share her opinion." Gosh, Sandy, your doing that sure does "scream insecure and hate."

What the hell do you think I'm "lying through my teeth" about, Sandy? I posted my opinion after watching the first episode which was lame, and I came here and posted my comment, just as I'm entitled as an MDL member to do. And if I decide to come here every day to repeat my opinion, I can do that too.

It says a lot that you are seemingly incapable of simply ignoring opinions you don't like or agree with. Instead, you come in all hysterical, screeching about this being the "one of the best first episodes ever in BL," which is, guess what, Sandy? Nothing but YOUR opinion which you are spending your day in here to share.

So, according to you, everyone who sees this, loves it, eh? ummm...maybe not, given all the commenters here whining about how "low" its rating is. lol

Hey Sandy, did you know people move to other countries all the time? Every day, even. No...really! It's just a fact that the Korean and Japanese film industries are FAR more advanced, productive, and prolific than whatever goes on in Thailand, which is mostly nothing when it comes to movies. They're too busy pumping out lame BLs twice a week to make quality films.

You might want to shut your trap regarding what I do or do not think about what comes out of SEA and why, Sandy. When I first discovered BL and Asian cinema three years ago, ALL my favorite BLs were Thai. Even today, eight of the BLs on my Top 30 list are Thai. So what does THAT say about me, Sandy? It's not my fault Thailand stopped making good BLs. Moonlight Chicken was the last watchable one.

"And everyone looking pretty should go for Japanese or Korean is very telling. " Hmmm...not sure what you're trying to shriek here. Do you think only Koreans and Japanese dudes are "pretty?" Wow, that's kind of racist and/or stupid, isn't it, Sandy? Are you Thai and feeling insecure about the attractiveness of your people?

There are a lot of hot Thai guys. It's just that the Thai film industry is almost non-existent, so if they got work in Korea/Japan a lot more people would see them on the screen.

OK, well, I'll be looking forward to your next over-the-top, freak-out comment. Fire away!

Quite low how?
There are lots of numbers below 10 on a ten point scale, like 1- 9. Why not use them?

Because I watched the first episode and dropped it TODAY. Should I come back and engage three weeks from now? Is there some reason I shouldn't engage at all today because I already dropped it? I already covered this in my last comment.

I don't care who you engage with, that's up to you. Do you expect every commenter to do what you do? Why do you expect me to engage with only people who think exactly like I do? Is that YOUR thing?

"But that's just me." is "immature?" Interesting. Yikes.

If you think it's weird that I'm engaging YOU, isn't it even weirder that you are replying to ME?

But what do you consider "hating on one?" If a person enjoys a show, then it's on them if they let negative comments "spoil" their watch. No one is entitled to a comment section free of comments they disagree with or that hurt their feelings about a show. Believing you ARE entitled to such a thing shows a high level of immaturity. As Taylor Swift so wisely said, "Shake It Off," baby.

If negative comments about a show upsets someone who likes it, then their positive appraisal is pretty insecure in the first place. If I like a show and keep watching, who gives a shit if someone else keeps watching and trashes every episode? So what? Who cares? Why does it matter? No one has to "leave" if they don't want to. "Hate watching" is a real thing.

I watched this first episode and it's awful, despite my affection for New. So I dropped it, trashed its rating and won't be commenting further. But that's just me.

Disagree. They totally cut any physical expressions of physical intimacy in a show ABOUT A GUY WHO READS OTHER PEOPLE'S THOUGHTS BECAUSE HE IS 30 YEARS OLD AND HASN'T BEEN PHYSICALLY INTIMATE YET. That's a pretty big fuck-up. No hugging, no kissing, and definitely NO banging, which is supposed to have been what freed the main character from his magic/affliction. He lost his CHERRY, for god's sake. Only you'd never know it from watching the Japanese version. Maybe one possible good thing about this Thai effort is will be that TayNew will go at it like two gay boys should.

A lot of good BLs out of Japan, but Cherry Magic/Japan is like a censored Chinese bromance.

The sound editing of Achi reading thoughts is kind of a HUGE thing to dislike about a show about a guy who reads other people's thoughts.

lol It seems YOU are the one who needs to "settle down." Why do you care so deeply how the moronic membership of MDL rates anything? It's useful for keeping lists and keeping track of what I've watched and want to watch, but totally useless as a source of intelligent critique.

BTW, 7.6/10 is a perfectly respectable, average rating on a 10 scale.

There is absolutely nothing wrong with comparing and contrasting different adaptations of a common source material. It's only been being done for centuries.

8.2 for ITSAY IS way too low, I agree. I rated it a 10/10 and I hand out very few 10s. However, on a 10 point scale, how is 7.6 considered "low?" It is average and this show is below average so far.

To me, the exact opposite of what you say is true: When it comes to dramas, MDL ratings are way too HIGH. Movies are generally way too low, if they're good. Way too many Western little girls and SJWs here, loving on Thai garbage. I would have thought this pos would be a 9.5/10 after that awful first episode.

It's not a low rating, it's an average rating. What's the problem?

Why do you consider 7.6/10 low?

What or who is it you think the "haters" hate? This show is so bad, you should be thrilled with a high-average rating of 7.6/10. What is an average rating to you?

What is so bad about 7.6/10, a high-average rating? You think that first ep was a masterpiece of some kind?

How is 7.6, out of 10, a low score, let alone "soo" low? It's a high-average score, and this is a below-average show, so you should celebrate.

It's worse than dog shit. Enjoy your watch.

What is a "POLCA?"

Bruh...this is garbage. Even my adorable New can't save this turd.
7.6 is WAY higher than this thing deserves.

It's telling that you say nothing good about the show except that it's "actually, really good," "people are smoking crack," "like come on now..." Those aren't positive assessments of anything in the show, just bland assertions and insults aimed at people with discernment.

This is terrible.

I love New, but he needs to escape from Thailand because 99% of what comes out of there is crap. Maybe learn Korean and Japanese; try to get some exposure there.

Dropped. 1/10

I don't blame him for fooling around on the side. His wife's weird nose is highly distracting.

I may be nine years late, but what is your problem with sex? I mean, in general? Sex is a huge part of life, especially relationships, for better or for worse? How is it that actors pretending to have sex, just as they pretend to argue, pretend to cry, pretend to make dinner, is of some lower "moral standard" to you? Maybe try not getting your moral teachings from movies and television?

Also...where is all this sex and nudity you're claiming to see on American TV? I assume you're talking about premium channels, because there is next to no sex and nudity on American broadcast television. Please send me some links so I can enjoy all this hot sex you're talking about.
