The Originals: No Always And Forever


   The Spinoff of the vampire diaries has finally ended and after spending 5 years of my life watching it I can only use one sentence to summarize how I felt after seeing it "what the fuck did I just watch"?.
         
                * MILD SPOILERS AHEAD*

Now,this season has a whole has been bad like...more bad than season 4 but I was like "I'll manage,it's the final season,I need to just be patient with them". I should have opted out long ago,I honestly don't know why Julie Plec(the show runner) is so inconsistent with the universe and bad at ending things. I gave her a pass for shitty The Vampire Diaries ending but this one just vexes me so much.

   How can you hunt us with the "always and  forever" quote since the vampire diaries and not let us see it happen. I mean ...what was the point of everything?.
I never liked Hayley but when they killed her earlier this season,part of me was like "this was a dumb move" but I ran with it because I believed there would be a well crafted emotional ending.

So far,the only thing Julie Plec has been able to do is kill of her most interesting characters and not give them proper send offs. The only person so far that was even treated with respect has to be Josh,I mean you got to see him have his happy ending. While my boy Klaus got Thanos'd(note:to be "Thanos'd" means to be turned to dust).

  Almost all seasons of the Originals have had terrible endings,from Klaus's evil aunty(can't remember her name) wanting the love of Esther, to the hollow being split amongst the Mikaelson's to Klaus and Elijah being Thanos'd.

 The people(Julie Plec)behind the show had no intention of even making this finale the closure fans had expected ever since this one announced to be the final season. Instead they used it as a marketing campaign to promote Legacies which I know a lot of people will not be interested in watching.

They were a lot of more story arcs that should have been explored but instead they decided to make this whole season the advertisement campaign for Legacies. I mean if the CW wanted to make a new show about the universe, why couldn't they just continue The Originals for the time being instead of making that stupid thing they called a series finale.

 Speaking of how stupid the finale was,why would you bring Camille back for that cameo if she wasn't going to be shown with Klaus in like the afterlife or something?.

I honestly feel like Julie Plec gets all her dumb ideas from a fortune cookie or something,she just pours randomness into storyboards and gives the actors dumb scripts to read. I honestly don't believe that any of the cast members loved the way the show ended.

 First they kill of Hayley, then misuse Elijah for a whole season, sideline Marcel,try so hard to make Hope the new Elena,kill off Vincent's love interest,bring back Davina for just one stupid episode and now they messed up by Killing Klaus without making us feel like all he had done to redeem himself was worth it.

If you're just starting the originals I beg of you,stop don't watch that show anymore or better yet,lower your expectations because this finale is just plane horrible. I mean for a show that had such great villains from Baba Tunde to Marcel(yes,he was a villain) to Lucian, this was just a frustrating season and terrible finale.

 All in all,the tagline of "always and forever" didn't survive because in the end you have no idea if Elijah or Klaus ever find peace. They still added a stupid new story of going to get the cure from Mystic falls for Rebecca and I have big feeling that they only did that to tease something in legacies. They're lucky nothing happened to my boy Kol because he's truly the smartest original,he's kind of like deadpool because he's always pointing out how outrageously dumb the world they live in is.

Who Would Win? Batman Vs Spiderman

Okay before I start I'd like you all to know I am not being partial in any way at all. I had this argument with my friend Andrea a couple of days back and now I feel like sharing on who I think would win,but I realised they are two perspective 1-choosing a winner based on accomplishment 2-choosing a winner based on powers or strengths 1- this perspective is basically saying "oh look at this let's check out both characters accomplishments",they both have taken down a large amount of enemies ranging from smart villains to dumb ones,they've both faced foes that are big and strong. So it's only reasonable to think Batman would win here,not by a long shot though because Spiderman is a force to be reckoned with. Batman has basically done more important things,he has defeated Superman severally,dodged darkseid's omega beams,outsmarted braniac,I mean the man is a bit fluent in kryptonian and he knows several martial art skills and he's just a human......

Why I Love: One Piece

      Last year was quite a hard time for me, it was my final year at the university and for what  felt like the first time in my life, I was truly struggling with school. Not the “oh I’m scared I might not do well” but I was genuinely doing bad. This wasn’t because I wasn’t reading or not putting in the work, it was just because I was given a terrible lecturer as a supervisor. I used to think I had a good relationship with him but during the course of the second semester I began to see a shift in his personality and obvious hate towards me. As someone who struggles with insecurities, I was constantly insulted and ridiculed for no real reasons and even though I knew what he said about me wasn’t true,  I was still hurt. Hurt not just because of how he made me feel bad but hurt because the idea of failing and disappointing my parents and family in general was killing me on the inside and I had no means to express how trapped I felt. You’re probably wondering, “Why...

Severance: An Unforgettable Thriller

Have you ever wondered what it would be like if you didn't remember the stress of your workplace when you get home? From the mind of Dan Erickson, directed by Ben Stiller and Aoife McArdle, Severance offers an answer to the aforementioned question and pushes the limit by asking " when your consciousness is spilt into two, which one is the real you? " The series follows a severed employee at Lumon, Mark who has recently been promoted to the Head of Microdata and Refinement Department after the sudden resignation of his boss and the recruitment of a new employee, Helly Riggs. Plot Severance has a unique plot, while the execution of a series without a definite blueprint can prove difficult, it does not fall into this hole. The series answers (almost)all the questions it poses in the first few episodes but ends on a note that will leave you spiraling and brimming with inquisitiveness.  Characters For every character, we follow two distinct ...

First Listen: Hamond - Pirate Radio

  since i heard  windows , i have been sloppy on Hamond.  Pirate Radio  is almost everything i imagine indie pop to be. it's glittery, experimental, vocal, and hard work. half the time, i don't even understand his poetry but it sounds so  damn good . the other half explores experiences of failed/failing relationships, problematic partners, and misplaced gaiety. storytelling like this always gets me into a frenzy, especially with fitting production.  the unconventional mix and production sets this art piece aside from the rest within its genre. especially the drums. nothing cliché with his lyrics or style of music. just pure, honest music that makes me bust some ass to his misfortune. 😀 mehn, it is definitely one of the better listens from 2022. give it a spin?
