It looks nothing like barry

Wait, who played It?

 

Enjoying The Boys so far

 

Agreed he looks nothing like Bill Hader

 

Baby Billy Scars Guard

 

I had no idea this was a thing

 

3 drinks in, and Madame Web is fucking hilarious. that man sure was in the Amazon with Dakota Johnson's mom when she was researching spiders right before she died.

 

im all caught up, ready for season 4!!!

 

Yea, I updated and everything. No idea what was going on. But it just never worked. My subscription is expiring in a few days and I didn’t use it much anyway so I just deleted the app and pirated instead lol.

 

the Paramount+ app is absolute garbage. the Android/Fire TV version of their app has been practically unusable for almost 2 years now, and only works for me by using a VPN. they have a very small support team that sends the same weekly reminder email that "we're still investigating your problem and will have a solution soon", but never actually addresses the problems due to their workload (which can't be improving anytime soon given Paramount's financial state and their consolidation of P+ and Pluto TV support teams). once Evil ends in August, i'm very likely gonna cancel.

 

The roku version of Paramount+ is pretty bad too. The only way to watch that seems issue free is just straight from the browser.

 

and iirc, browser quality might be limited to 720p?

 

Paramount+ subtitles are absolute garbage.

 

subtitles are for nerds

 

Before we inevitably end up in "do you use subtitles?" Discourse for the millionth time

• Miniaturized microphones have changed acting styles where actors feel comfortable to whisper more now. Making dialogue harder to understand
• The fast advancement of digital audio recording picks up so much now that there are many more layers the sound editor has to cut through to make dialogue come out clearly
• Studios have cut budgets and given stricter deadlines for sound departments so they usually don't have the time and money to focus on making the dialogue crystal clear, especially for TV
• The Christopher Nolan philosophy of "intentionally near unintelligible dialogue can be a sound effect" has begun go spread to other directors
• Thinner TVs have terrible backfacing speakers. So unless you have a home sound system you are getting bad sound
• People are watching more international content with actors that have accents that can be difficult to understand
• Way more people's living spaces have open floor plans now, which are horrible for acoustics, and often clash with kitchen/kid/pet noises.
• The subtitle third party contracter industry got a huge boost after the hearing disability lobby pressured streamers to make them available for everything. As such subtitlers started to get resources to be more creative, and actually add and enhance the story, which some viewers appreciate.

That is why people use captions and subtitles. Discourse over. The end.
