Re: Jessica Jones (spoilers!!!)

I was disappointed by the first episode. I get it can be slow but I just skipped half way through to the second and hope there's something interesting going to happen. I don't watch television for sex damn it. I got frustrated by that and the slowness of the plot.

Got to say start of second episode doesn't make me want to go back and finish it.

Also the narration is bugging the hell out of me. It reminds me more of Twilight than narration from like Veronica Mars.

I give up. It's just too boring.

I like mystery but this is just a bad balance of mundane to 'interesting'. I feel like it's not even driving interesting parts of the story.

And OMG the Jessica / Luke interaction is just so crappy like it just feels forced. "oh we both like each other. Oh we're different! let's bond." that's the feeling I got.

I'm going to 'watch' it while doing housework or something as background. I want to see what happens to Killgrave because I love David Tennant (not because of Doctor Who, I got bored of that in a 'not my genre' kind of way) but not enough to see this with 100% attention. I watch Daredevil twice on a binge, this is just meh.

Luke and Jessica were at their most interesting during the five minutes when they were talking about their shared secret of having powers.

That could have been so damn cool, these two people who have finally found someone else like each other that's just a regular non-superhero person from the neighbourhood, but nope. They just had to have terrible sex instead.

(Was it even good for them? I couldn't tell)

It looked uncomfortable, like both were too aware of their powers but not the other so its just like "no can't enjoy this'. Seriously though what was up with that camera work.

Anon who still hasn't finished the fifth episode:

Thus immediately defiling the holy gifts given to them.

(Yeah, that's a reference to something else. And if you know what, you deserve a turkey-day marathon all your own!)

I'm not one for sex scenes. But I did actually like how those became less and less about the sex and more and more about how Jessica was being judged by the picture in the bathroom. AND SHE DESERVED IT.
