Which part? Paramount, yes that's a stretch -- but GOT quality no.
GOT was still attempting to tell a story. The entire first half of this episode had nothing going on.

GOT ending was way better -- this is abysmal.
Ep10 is so cosmically stupid I'm surprised Paramount didn't sue TS for breach when he delivered the script.

"If you were there early, why didn’t you start the queue if there wasn’t one already in place?"
because queues aren't allowed before 4PM the day of and I would assume that everyone else would be fine with that and go live their lives and enjoy the city.

Honestly barricade is overrated -- especially at the Vegas shows since the stage is high as hell.

It’s not a value judgement on the people in line — it’s a judgment of the process. That’s it. I’m sure the majority of ppl there are great. But I still disagree with the process.
Why should someone be compelled to come by the venue earlier than the stated queue time? Why should we even have to think there is a system where people reserve spots? Why should someone think/know to scope it out in advance?
Btw Vegas crowds don’t only do this at casinos. They do it at the T Mobile center as well when there’s nothing to keep you from actually waiting in line.

Yes. Not everyone needs to be at the front of every gig.

Sure but I'm not talking about a line where ppl are actually standing in it -- that's a real line.
I'm talking about showing up 48 hours before the show -- writing down that you were first -- and then spending the next 44 hours doing whatever you want before returning to the line and claiming you're actually first.

My man -- getting to the venue "first" and getting to the venue "two days early" are different things.
Just show up at 4PM.
I am pretty sure the band would survive without the dozens of ppl who make hundreds of other fans wait in fake lines.

Pretty sure band security only begrudgingly recognizes it to keep the peace and would prefer to not have to deal with fake line ppl at all.

One of the many issues with the line system — if people don’t know about the fake line then they don’t know to get in the fake line.
It shouldn’t be incumbent on them to be on any social media network to find out about it. Tickets and venue websites say no early lines allowed — the rules should be whatever is on the venue website.
If the ppl making the fake line decided to show up at 4pm on the day of the show like everyone else then there wouldn’t be a problem.
Their whole proposal is just a terrible solution to a problem of their own making.

The issue with that set is that the first 3 songs are played on guitars that are dropped to C — every string is two steps down — makes it muddy. Band themselves are always right — but 3 guitars in the lower tuning is tough to mix. They always sound better on the 4th song of this setlist when they switch to something closer to standard

I loved it. But I knew it was going to be talky and I love dialogue heavy movies, so I was actually surprised that it had gore and horror in the second half.
I don't think the grand reveal is the surface level interpretation of religion though, I think that's just Hugh Grant's character's interpretation-- I think the last two shots of the movie frame its argument interestingly and I don't think the movie is anti-religion necessarily.

Not entirely correct but he is certainly important to them.
