Loved Russian Doll, been meaning forever to get around to season 2. I never heard anything positive or negative about it and kinda assumed the worst and just kept putting it off😭

Reddit loves to pretend that if something is not the best thing ever, it's absolute dogshit. There is no in between.
While not as good as the first one, it was still entertaining. I would recommend it if you liked the first season.

I actually didn't mind season two and thought there was a lot of good hidden in there. It definitely was more loosey-goosey and hand-wavey with the plot and character choices, and not as tightly constructed as the first season. But there was gorgeous scenery, some clever dialog, and some heartfelt moments for key characters.

I liked season 2 well enough. The plot isn't the greatest, but it's really more about the characters and giving you more depth. I enjoyed it for that.

Season 2 is very different to season 1. A lot of coming to grips with your family, the people in your life, than the coming to grips with self of the first season.
I liked it, some people might not. It's not as good as season 1, but the cast did well.

I agree they’re lacking in comparison to other platforms but $5 is pretty cheap when you consider you can literally subscribe, binge the show you wanna watch (plus others), and cancel before the month is up. For that matter it’s even cheaper than buying a season of a show on physical media like a DVD or digital download like iTunes.

I’ve been using Peacock a lot lately and haven’t had this problem. I have, however, had a similar issue with Netflix where I have to scroll way too far before reaching my continue watching section.

I agree Knives out was generally enjoyable, largely due to the cast. However, it isn't better than the best detective films at all.
But also, you just cannot convince me Glass Onion had good writing. The murder mystery with a secret twin trope was weak and the social commentary had the subtlety of a sledgehammer.

Excellent writing, aptly nominated.

The strength of the writing involved the intricate of its plot as it unfolded. The plot twist adding another layer to the meaning of the previous segment.

You must be delusional if you think the film's success wasn't primarily on the shoulders of the cast (Craig, Armas and Curtis especially). The writing was an afterthought.

Let me guess, you also think BBC Sherlock was a good detective series, huh
>.....the character at the end explains, its not meant or designed to be subtle, its wearing its heart on its sleeve. (Hilariously people still failed to get it)
Ah yes, it was bad on purpose. That's just Rian's writing, it's not any 'design', he is just not a subtle storyteller. He thinks he deserves brownie points for shitting on conservatives (the lowest hanging fruit imaginable) instead of actually writing a compelling detective story. Glass Onion was a full showcase of his worst writing habits
>The strength of the writing involved the intricate of its plot as it unfolded. The plot twist adding another layer to the meaning of the previous segment.
The plot was nonsense from start to finish.

It did, at the time of release. Glass Onion will age just as poorly, if not worse, than Crash

It wasnt, it was the writing, that was the main source of praise, the cast even regarded the writing in these films as key.
We then get an overall new main cast and the next also receives strong praise, with the screenplay again being a highlight.
>The writing was an afterthought.
Now this is delusional.
>Lol ok, clearly you haven't seen many
Certainly none better, or one that goes off on such an unconventional route, but then at the end allows the watcher to have their cake and eat it.

Actually theres lots of different things that people and critics missed on first viewing which sites on the internet enjoyed highlighting. Also lots of subtle indicators of whats to come.

This is a dumb view put forth by dim Ben Shapiro types, Knives Out takes digs at people expecting free hand outs regardless of their political ideology.
Glass Onion just takes digs at the grander than thou billionaire types high on their own supply, again, regardless of their political ideology.

Knives out had an entire segment devoted to a 15-something year old being called a creepy alt-right incel, just so we are clear. And I agree, alt right incels are awful. But spelling this out so bluntly in your film will make your film sound aged and cringy too soon.
Glass Onion is even worse in this regard. Not to mention the peak cringe cameos like Serena's training program (Grant's cameo was the only time I laughed during the film, so there's that). And I don't care about billionaires' political ideology either. Johnson could rip them to shreds for well documented worker abuse or rampant fraud, instead he chose the surface level message 'billionaires are dumb'
>for shitting on conservatives
>If you thought this its means you misread it or you are simply parroting something you saw on youtube which stated this.
I have to give it to Rian, he truly made a film that is impossible to criticise. Braindead hamfisted messaging from start to finish with weak plot, bland cinematography and wasted cast list, but if you dare say ill word you immediately get labeled a Ben Shapiro fan.
He shat on the lowest hanging fruit. Crash was the epitome of DAE racism bad?, this is the same shit, just repackaged for 2022. People who want to watch Glass Onion already know and agree, people whom this film mocks will ignore it. No new ground has been broken, nothing poignant or original was said. And the mystery was utter shite, sorry. Nonsensical plot cheese full of holes.
>The plot was nonsense from start to finish.
>No, it all followed an engaging and entertaining path from start to finish.
Agree to disagree. I watched it with my family in Europe and they fell asleep half way through (and they liked Knives out). Truth is the film is just a boring vehicle for Rian's world views, otherwise the film drags to the finish line with grace and tempo of a drunken elephant. The film doesn't resonate outside of American politics.
Tár was a billion times more engaging and well crafted film that touched on many of today's issues much better than Glass Onion ever did. Watch it and you will immediately notice the stark contrast in the script quality.
>Glass Onion will age just as poorly, if not worse, than Crash
>Except it wont, it is a film which received higher critical acclaim from both critics and audiences. The third film in the franchise will actually be highly anticipated.
Avatar 2 was also highly anticipated and it is not peak storytelling either
It's 'anticipated' because Craig's Blanc is hilarious, that's it

An indicator of a films quality involves multiple things, yes nominations, but also critical praise and audience reactions. Rians recent work did well in all these regards.

You didn't correct jack mate. He shits on the lowest hanging fruit, doesn't matter if it's conservatives, billionaires, Andrew Tate streamers or 'crazy libruls'. They are ALL low hanging fruit.
And yes I laughed during Grant's cameo, because he is actually funny and talented actor, unlike the script. It is no coincidence that the best parts were Hawke's and Grant's performances: they had limited screentime and didn't get completely sucked into Johnson's lazy writing schticks
Kathryn Hahn is one of the best comedic actresses working today and he gave her absolutely nothing to play with, which is a damn shame. The film is UNfunny. Also a bad mystery film. If not for the cast list, this film would fall into Netflix fodder bin, guaranteed

Not as unanimous praise as you think.

Slightly above average reception, majority agreed it was noticeably worse than Knives Out. You can check out the Metacritic link again, because you have no sources for anything

Columbo is my favorite TV detective of all time, and Russian Doll was a standout show of the last few years, so I'm very optimistic for the series.
Only hoping that it doesn't lean as heavy into the broad caricatures that Glass Onion relied on, and gives us more of a wry and clever comedy of errors like early Rian Johnson or the Coen brothers.
