Twilight of the Gods

Yeah, I liked it. Maybe don't watch it with parents present or anyone who might get turned off by violence and sex.

It's entertaining, but not compelling.

Has very strong "Primal" vibes, but it doesn't hold a candle to it. From the animation style to the raw nature of the content, it feels littered with Primal influences. I don't think it's terrible, but it's hard not to make the comparisons. I can see what it wants to be, but I'm just not gripped so far.

Think I'll go re-watch Primal again after this.

Started Strong, Ending Dissatisfied. No season 2

It started off with such promise, and ended right there. The first episode could’ve been a beautiful short film: a visually stunning portrait of a sadistic Norse entity, offering a rare interpretation of Thor in mainstream media. The real issue is that the series drags itself through a full season, asking us to tolerate a protagonist who brings very little to the table. I’m sorry, Snyder, but this feels like yet another ode to mediocrity.

It's just not great.. The first two and last two episodes are okay but the other four just feel like corridor episodes; like the beginning and end of the story were solidified but they had no idea how to join them.

I think the main issue is the pacing is slow, which is made worse by the fact most of the story seems to have been left for a future season which either now is never, or was never going to come.

I can't really recommend it.

I started watching this without knowing it was made my synder. Unnecessary nudity, random jesus and no respect for the original material. All of it checks out.

Something seems "off" about this show. The best way I can describe it, is it feels like it's being played at 80-90% speed instead of 100%.

The dialog feels too slow and it's delivered with a weird cadence. The framerate feels off. I've watched at least a few animated shows, but the slideshow effect is much more pronounced in this show. It's actually quite funny when they do an intentional slow-mo segment without adding extra frames.

Overall, this feels like an edgy teenager was given a set of AI tool to create a show and this is the result. I know it's not actually AI generated, but everything from the writing, to the animation and voice overs have this weird surreal layer of something trying to imitate human behavior without fully understanding it.

I also like how they show Zach Snyder's name 6 times before the opening scene, then as the scene begins, his name gets blasted in the center of the screen again in case you missed it the first 6 times.
