even peter jackson's *the hobbit*, with all of its questionable cgi, still makes me feel like i'm actually in middle-earth.

and no, the show's biggest problem isn't the diverse casting. people keep acting like that's the main criticism when it isn't. the writing is just bad. the story is bad. it's that simple.

what's really maddening is the budget. how do you spend around a billion dollars and end up with something that feels this lifeless? where did all that money go?

it's hard not to joke that everyone involved must have been cashing checks while nobody stopped to ask, "are we actually making a good show?"

and how did bezos sign off on all of this? at this point, the only explanation that makes any sense is that the budget somehow looked better on a tax return than it did on screen.

the match where tsubasa's grandchildren, who beat germany and spain at the 2022 cup in qatar and were later knocked out by croatia on penalties, and who also played neck and neck with the netherlands at this year's cup, step onto the world stage once again.

the effort they put into not accepting cristiano ronaldo as a leader might be more than the effort they put into winning the world cup. the players being unbelievably distant toward one another. there's a separate coldness toward ronaldo, but the problem isn't just that either. bruno, neto, vitinha... none of them give off an energy that pulls the others up. everyone's playing their own match. we are watching live as a team fails to emerge from 11 quality footballers.

a very good actor and a person i believe to be a fraud. i think these english men first market themselves as people in the mindset of being super cool, unattainable, deep, "i don't like the things everybody else likes." then with those never-ending whims and mood swings of theirs they eat away years of your life.

that's why i can't really buy into all those happiness poses he strikes with dua lipa on social media right now. i wish dua had sat down with taylor swift for a half-hour chat about english men before getting married, she'd have run away at a sprint, if you ask me. if what this guy's ex-girlfriend says is true, the man who throughout the relationship said "i don't get with famous people, i don't like living in the public eye, the met gala isn't for me" is today living that exact life he condemned with one of the biggest pop stars in the world.

for me the issue here isn't changing your mind, after all once feelings enter into it people can do the things they said they wouldn't, but they don't do it this eagerly, come on, man! hey buddy, what happened to your shyness, to that show-shunning character of yours? you held a three-day, three-night wedding and shut down palermo to get married, you went so overboard that in the end the city's residents protested you. wow, good thing our man doesn't like showing off.

anyone who wants to can be as tasteless as they like and spend their money on pointless things, of course, but the thing that gets on my nerves here is this guy selling his own reluctance to his ex-girlfriend as a character trait and stringing the girl along. if you don't love a person, you don't suffocate them with your whims. you say openly, right at the start, "i don't want this, i don't like you enough, i'm just passing time with you." don't go causing people to spend months, years of their lives questioning themselves. my whole life i never strung along anyone i knew i wouldn't be able to meet the expectations of, because to me that's flat-out cruelty.

and if the claims are true, it's said that while he was at dinner with his ex-girlfriend, dua lipa was at the same venue too, and that their meeting took place that very evening. if it's true, it's a truly stomach-turning story. i believe nobody can build their happiness on someone else's unhappiness. on top of that, relationships that are made this much of a show, whose every step is marketed as a "fairytale love," give me a horrendous sense of artificiality. in my opinion this guy is a walking red flag, and what the hell he's about will come out in time.

before the dessert even arrives, launching into a 17-minute ex-boyfriend ted talk that kicks off with "i have actually been hurt a lot in the past."

in the spain cape verde match on june 15, 2026, he rose to the occasion and kept his goal clean. at the same time, he etched his name into an important achievement by securing his country's first-ever point in a world cup tournament it was taking part in for the first time. he's 40 years old right now, fame found him a little late, it seems.
