Emergence

Image
Emergence was about police chief Jo Evans finding a girl, Piper, after a plane crash.  It turned out Piper and another main character, Benny, were robots / synthetic organism.  I rewatched the season and didn't find it shocking that Benny was synthetic because know what NTSB report in the pilot episode going to say (mapping pollution, etc) wanted to talk to Piper (in 2 MG CU BID ) know Piper robot (he said "I do" when Jo said "piper robot?  I don't believe you" in 2 MG CU BID ) wanted Piper to join him and Helen won't kill Piper (in  American Chestnut )   It's not outright stated, but I think Piper's "parents" were in the SUV in the pilot episode looking to kidnap Piper and later died.  Kindred, Emily (she created Piper to be an image of her when young), and Helen (she wanted Piper's abilities) were after Piper.

Now You See Me 2

Image
 Merritt served as the distraction while Jack stole the chip.  Allen said he seen the Horsemen before and verified it by going to the Eye's headquarters, where he seen them again.  I felt like Atlas didn't need Dylan, but he changed his mind when Dylan rescued him from Walter.   I felt like the Horseman stole from the Eye.  Were Walter and Arthur Tressler part of the Eye?

Thaddeus Bradley Mastermind

Arthur Tressler uses Thaddeus Bradley to enact his revenge against the Horseman in both of the films, Now You See Me and its sequel.  Arthur is Thaddeus's source. in the first movie, Arthur Tressler paid Thaddeus Bradley double if Bradley agreed to expose the Horsemen in the sequel, Arthur Tressler was seen giving money to Thaddeus Bradley for Dylan Rhodes' whereabouts after Dylan was dropped into the ocean like his dad

Scooby Doo on Zombie Island

Image
Since it's almost Halloween, I spent gift card on Scooby-Doo on Zombie Island which sounds spooky for the season.  The ghosts and zombies were scaring Scooby and the gang off the island which was inhabitated by Lena and her cat zombies.  Reanimating the dead spooky. The zombies were actually real which scared me when younger.

Inception

Image
 This is probably the only theory that makes sense about Inception.  The whole movie is a flashback - Cobb's flashblack of the Saito extraction and the Fischer inception - which lead to Cobb entering limbo.  The kicks waking up the dreamers destroyed Cobb's limbo - the city skyscrapers falling apart - and replaced it with Saito's limbo.  It is assumed Cobb and Saito shot themselves to wake up from limbo.

Pokemon

  I might be an older fan of Pokemon .  Pokemon had 4Kids Entertainment, TAJ productions, and other production companies that made the American / English dub. In the 4Kids dub, I liked the theme songs.  In the Pokemon Company International version, I found the voices tolerable. I was used to the 4Kids version.  The censorship of the sex and violence didn't bug me.  Pokemon was a kids franchise on network television for the first 8 seasons.  Did you really expect Pokemon to be oozing with sex and violence? The only thing that bugged me was the Americanizing the Japanese food.  4Kids called a form of sushi "Jelly donuts".  I been in enough Asian restaurants as an adult to know what sushi (especially onigiri as depicted in the show) looked like. I mostly been watching Pokemon Master Qiest (season 5) Pokemon Sinnoh League Victors Pokemon Journeys Pokemon Horizons I avoided Pokemon Battle Frontier (season 9) because I didn't like the voices (I was mo...

CSI: NY 333 Storyline

Image
I wanted to talk about CSI: NY 's season 4 storyline, the 333 stalker.  I wondered how Mac's stalker, Drew Bedford, knew Mac's hotel rooms he was staying in's phone number cell phone's # office's phone # office location I guess he used Stella's office card to guess Mac's office number and office location to call him and leave the luggage with the bloody t-shirt.  He could have called the area hotels and asked if Mac Taylor was staying in one of the rooms. The bloody t-shirt belonged to Will, Andy's brother who died.  The chalk outline was of Will, and the newspaper satchel belonged to Will.  The dead body was Bobby Toole - the man who killed Will.
