I don't think this was promoted very well - there was a preview months and months ago, but I didn't see anything…
There are four actors in the cast that would have attracted a large audience - Gawin, Fluke, JJ, and Jimmy (although to be fair this was cast before BB aired) - but again, unknowns are used for the main roles. There must be a strong financial reason for this as it doesn't seem to make any other sense, certainly not artistic.
The leads in this series are doing a good job, but they're new to BL audiences.
How many people live in Leo's house? The bathroom line in the morning must be terrible.
This is actually pretty good - I had very low expectations. The main actors are charming and are fun to watch together - they also seem good at improv, as I doubt it was on purpose when Akk had trouble fastening his seatbelt.
Gawin looks a lot hotter in Not Me, but the rougher style there suits him.
I wish this had had Bruce in it from the beginning.
Anyway, that was much better than last week - but it does underscore how necessary Phap is to the story - it feels a bit limp without him. I don't think the episode was incoherent, but it needed a bit of editing - scenes were dragging too long and it reduces the energy.
I'm glad that they returned to the violence and there were consequences.
I'm not sure how they can resolve this in a single episode - maybe there will be a season 2?
was thinking about the uncut version and whether it is worth subscribing to see it.. thanks for letting me know!…
In the Recent Discussions" section above I summarize the scenes. I didn't do it fir Ep 2, but I did Ep1 and I'll try to do the rest.
The cuts generally aren't too importat too the plot, but ithe deleted sections are often shown in the previews and 'recaps, which prompted me to do this.
Finally we're getting what we've all been waiting for - a high school/university basketball series. I love the…
But this one is special - it features an entire cast that has no acting experience. So I think we can safeley harbor high expectations for the second draft of Our Sky with actors that don't have any ingrained bad acting habits.
"4) and a vampire can instantly sense them (but apparently only if they touch his blood, since he sat bahind him…
Oh, OK, then I withdraw point 4. :)
I'm fine with the low budget - sometimes it's better because it forces the production to be creative. It's really the writing that's a problem for me - when a story is only 80 minutes long, there's no time to waste on exposition, especially if it's unimportant - we're not blind - we can see his eyes turn blue when using his vampire powers, so why tell us? Plus, you remember an image (blue eyes), but might forget something told in passing (have to touch the blood).
I don't think writing gets better when you throw more money at it, it gets better when you get better writers. The rest I can forgive - lighting & editing are expensive, etc.
The budget for this is probably as high or higher than Where Your Eyes Linger, which I thought was one of the better BLs ever made, so it can be done.
Yeah, I never watch something illegally unless there's no choice or it's terrible like Gen Y. I'm not paying for that. I hope at some point everyone consolidates on one or two platforms though.
I didn't like it very much - the writing isn't very good. If you're going to use an established creature like a vampire, then don't totally change them - make it something else or mutant or something. And then don't give us a lengthy exposition about those characteristics - show us, don't tell us. For example - there's a scene where bargain-basement Sarawat hypnotizes someone and his eyes turn blue. That's all you needed - there was no need for the line at the beginning "when a vampire hypnotizes someone his eyes turn blue." With 10 minutes of run time, you can't waste any.
So vampires 1) eyes turn blue when hypnotizing. 2) Fade away ten years after killing a human (wtf?) 3) Every 100 years a "pureblood" human is born 4) and a vampire can instantly sense them (but apparently only if they touch his blood, since he sat bahind him in class and never noticed) 5) Purebood blood will turn a vampire human 6) but only if you make them fall in love with you first.
That's just a bunch of silly rules to force the plot to go where the author wants. For example, they wanted the main character to be sick, so rule #2 was clumsily inserted. Color Rush had a similar setup, but it was creative and interesting.
And again, an uke is incapable of climbing a staircase without tripping.
As usual, the seme is "straight", but the uke is explicitly gay, which is some sort of progress, I guess. The whole cast is really attractive and the acting is pretty good.
The cast of this is really good, and I was pleasantly surprised with how enjoyable the series is. Evil doctor boy is so cute!
