That final showdown with Idris and the white hijacker was so unnecessary :mjlol:

shyt didn’t even make sense. He was cool with him the whole plane ride for no reason and then decided he had to take his failure out on someone so it was gonna be the nikka that saved all their lives? :dahell:

Idris starting to turn into Liam Neeson, just a bunch of mid-tier action movies the can put their name in bold letters on. They are entertaining but forgettable as hell

Him and that mountain movie, the stupid lion movie, this.

I think that's just the nature of streaming. Actors, especially over on that side of things, do a lot of smaller roles that typically wouldn't get any spotlight. To stay in practice, quid pro quo for friends, just to stay working, whatever. This streaming beast is like when CNN first came on the scene, it's 24/7 so you've got to find content to fill the space. The comparison to Citadel isn't a bad one at all. There's going to be a lot of mid-tier shows, with all kinds of experimenting going on, that will be in the spotlight going forward.

Hijack, Citadel, The Old Man, See, everything Disney can shove through the pipeline...there'll be the occasional hit but a loooot of it will be content that feels like it needed more polish to be better.





To a certain extent that also falls on the consumer. The faster you expect the new thing to come out, the lower the quality on the other side.:manny:

That’s what I thought too. He was talkative with him the whole time and even gave him his gun at the end. If anybody went crazy it would’ve made more sense for the woman or the Somalian guy to do it because they were the most aggressive of the hijackers throughout the show.

Its the new straight to dvd, but it doesn’t hurt the actors reputations as much

You mean tell me after all that tough talk that little brunette was giving out, NOBODY snuffed her after they realized her gun only had blanks?! Nah breh. She had a giant sized ass whooping coming and these writers didn’t deliver. The two flight attendants should’ve dragged her up and down those aisles.

She deserves a two piece at minimum.

I dunno, a second season could work out just fine. They don’t even have to hold on to the premise of a hijacking.

They’ve sort of created an entire world for him to operate in.

Season 2 will be on a train
Season 3 will be on a cruise ship
Season 4 will be in the White House
Season 5 will be in Nakatomi Plaza
Sea...

IN :leon:

By midway through Season 3, man would just be handing over their guns to him mid scheme like "We know how you give it up, bro - we don't want any trouble.... :hubie:"

The show would turn into into the synopsis :patrice: gave of 'Under Siege' "Casey fukking Ryback?! :wtf: He's the guy who trains the guys who train the trainers :damn: :lupe: :sadcam:"

When he hits that "The name is Jack :birdman:......Hijack :youngsabo:" line, though.

:blessed:
