Re: Reacher [Drama, Action]

Just watched the final episode of this series and had a little chuckle to myself trying to imagine Tom Cruise in the fight scene with Paulie.

Re: Reacher [Drama, Action]

I thought Richson's acting started out a little worse than season 2, but it got better and I thoroughly enjoyed the season. I gotta say the sex thing was weird. As if somone said, "Oh,no! We forgot to write in a sex scene." She just didn't seem like the type to just jump on a guy like that. However, like some others, the time just flew and that doesn't happen often for me with TV or movies. I hope there's a season 4.

I'm starting to want to read the books (the originals, not all the spin-offs), but I have a hard time reconciling characters if I watch the TV/movie versions first!

I've learned that you can't judge a book by its cover, so this felt coherent to me. smile

That's very good news - just hope she will also appear in Season 4 of Reacher - can't imagine the show without her anymore smile.

Ending of Season 3 was OK, we got to see what we knew was coming. The show delivers on exactly what you want from it, nothing less but (sadly) also nothing more.

Yes, she really adds to the show.

I read my first Reacher book maybe 25 years ago, and I have read evey one of the 29 novels so far.

This is awesome. I'm about 20 pages into my first one(the first one!)

Over the 29 novels does the quality dip off? Are they all much of a muchness?

They are similar but not the same I think the change of author for the latest ones are not as good as the first 24. I do still read each new one though.

Looks like everything I want it to be.
No Neagley in the trailer though, probably won't be in this season because of the spin-off ?

Did you watch the Neagley trailer? Reacher is in it.

Yes, seen it smile

And I think that's the best way to go about it, her not being in his show and him being in her show.
That's how you establish a good spin-off.

Re: Reacher [Drama, Action]

reacher s03 was not nearly as good as s01 and s02
hopefully they have brought the story back up for season 4
one day i will read the books..
after this series ends..

pirates were the first democratic organizations in the new world
and the first organizations where women could lead men

Re: Reacher [Drama, Action]

Reacher: So long as they don't have any more over-the-top stuff like holding a fully hospital gurney with a person on it from a aircraft in flight...

Delivery:
Interesting that Reacher runs weekly end on the full season drop of Neagley.

Theory:
The Reacher season finale will cross over with Neagley in his show for last episode, then he is in her for first episode... Then hers goes on from there.

that would be a good cross over and a great way for them to promote neagley.

i would love to see a double season story that goes 15 episodes between both.

too much to hope for...

In the trailer he says "You had your hands full" - to me this implies he will join in at the end of her season.

If he is in her show in Ep01, what reason could he have to leave her alone with her "mission"?

see for me that might suggest
she could not help him at the start of his show... but she is there now and taking the lead in the investigation..

and he is not so caught up in his ego that he realizes she might be better at this part then him so
lets her take the lead.


yeah it is likely too much to ask from the writers.

Yep - I'll also say I liked the more realistic nature of the fights.  Big guy used to dominating on size and strength alone taken by surprise when facing well trained younger men that have been training while he's been just roaming.

Re: Reacher [Drama, Action]

Watched all 3. Good start. When Reacher is getting interrogated, he really has that deer in the headlight look down. It is almost comical.

Re: Reacher [Drama, Action]

4x03...c'mon I bet she is

Spoiler

totally messing with him. If that wasn't seduction than I don't know what is.... I am 99% positive she still hasn't told the full truth of her involvement and is using him somehow.

LOL yeah I did like that one.

The new season has been fine so far.

I was ready to skip the series over Richardsons recent Trump Derangement Syndrome rants of late but I realized if I skipped every show where the actors have some weird obsession with the guy, I wouldn't be able to watch anything at all (except maybe Daily Wire content lol)

Easy solution, stay off social media and you won't know what actor's political opinions are (not that they matter)... that way they cannot influence your viewing habits smile

I could have sworn the rants where A.I. And I really do not care about an actors private or political opinions. They are actors. And he plays a large bulking kick ass machine well.

Pure genius in its simplicity.

I cant argue you aren't 100% correct but how do you navigate not getting involved in all that drama with having some sort of pre warning if a particular show is just bad or pushing a narrative you are trying to avoid?

I have a 30 min time limit on Facebook per day that I rarely ever hit, don't have insta, tik tok etc  so I'm definitely not terminally online.
