I said “which is fine.” Don’t let your preexisting fandom cloud objectivity is my point
You like it though, nothing I say will convince you. Enjoy what you enjoy

So something was poorly reviewed for being unoriginal and derivative?
And you think that shouldn’t be something people are allowed to point out?

As someone who watched all of BMS when I was younger that show is extremely overrated. You could tell me it premiered on The CW or Spike and I wouldn’t question it at all

The “world” looks extremely low-budget. Some aight visuals but the overall setting is just London with some cheap CGI statues in the horizon.
It sounds like you came in loving the book already, and wanted the show to be good. Which is fine, but it’s not quite there yet

I don’t think the spaceship thing confirms that personally. I saw that as knowledge possessed by the “original being” or form of the Thing, considering it crash landed onto Earth with a similar-looking ship.
Am I wrong? It’s all a guess
