Not even. The book goes into detail about what swallowing a djinn's cum us like.

GOAT. Would be the best show on television if it wasn't for Twin Peaks.

The fourth episode was as good as any of Hannibal's best moments but outside of that it hasn't reached those heights yet. Mostly because the Shadow / Wednesday plot isn't as compelling as it should be. We're only 5 episodes in though and it wasn't until Season 2 that Hannibal became a 10/10.

Regardless of the quality of the show, it's pretty obvious what /tv/s consensus will be

>>83405678
the consensus is that (like most things) /tv/ hates it but still watches it every week. that's an observation from someone who hasn't seen a second of it

Too much slow mo, walking through corridors, walking, taking steps, step by step, one step at a time, buying cigarette, slo-mo of cigarette falling from vending machine, next frame of shadow standing, lasts 3 seconds, people standing around, talking slowly, pausing for long periods before answering one another saying nothing. It's the opposite of shows where stuff happens but I dig the concept.

>>83406050

How much of a ">muh politics" cuck do you have to be to have hated that scene? At that point you should honestly just stop watching entertainment all together, and just re-read Mein Kampf all day.

>>83406158

>>83406158
Starz isn't no-name. It's premium cable. They are allowed one big budgett show a year.

>>83406158
I was wondering this too
That animated scene alone probably cost more to produce than most shows in an entire season

>>83406158
>>83406252

Anubis isn't black, he's a god.

Anubis is black because the amount of people who believe Egyptians were black outweighs the amount who think they are white

My favorite scene was the one where god took a shit on the unpaid janitor who spent his life doing it for free.

Pure kino.

Anansi was tricking the slaves
Telling them about the injustices black folk have to endure even in modern times he made it seem like blacks in the 21st century have it as bad as the the ones during slavery times and as soon as they believed him they followed his every word and even killed and died for him
If anything the scene was portraying SJWs and libtards and poking fun at them

>>83406470
The general opinion isn't that though, not now with how much WE WUZ has spread

>>83405678
I like it overall. But the way Shadow says some stuff doesn't sound right, i.e. "I love you, the sky feels constipated"; I haven't read the book, but I assume stuff like this is lifted word for word. Just sounds odd when spoken in a conversational context.

>>83406533

That's an even worse interpretation than the /pol/ one. Mr. Nancy is a trickster god.

The show is pretty bad desu senpai. Opening credits look like shitty budget cable tv, the main plot line is boring as hell, and the show is too gay.

Her episode really highlighted what a shitty actor the guy who plays Shadow is. She was stellar.

Im not exactly sure what to think so far but I really enjoy McShanes, Brownings and Schreibers performance and a lot of the supporting cast. Whittle on the other hand doesnt seem to be a good actor desu.

What is most disappointing is the pacing and the whole muh wife plot.

My favorite scenes so far were

1. Anubis ascending Mrs. Fasil.
2. Ansisi an heros the slave ship.
3. Zorya Polunochnaya plucking the Moon for Moon.

Yeah I love that part where Shakespeare describes the taste of cum during the gay love scene in Richard III.

Also implying any literature surpasses Victorian literature.

Dumas > Dickens > Shakespeare.

Neil Gaiman last name makes a lot of sense to me now.


Also comparing farting to a man sucking another mans penis is literally retarded.

Also how is this not offensive to muslims? Why aren't embassies being blown up? Literally the only time I'm in support of a chimp out.

So Wednesday is Odin?

I've only seen one scene from this series, and it's of Anubis taking some Middle Eastern lady to the underworld to have her heart measured.

That is one of the worst things I've ever seen. The acting from the lady and Anubis were beyond atrocious, and the dialogue was something a high school student would come up with.

Is the rest of the series like this?
