Opposing viewpoints are fine too though - I always find it quite fascinating why someone might have loved something I hated or vice versa.Shintarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16758343475446510635noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1510920011443550663.post-58114906025029210692022-03-14T08:50:31.107+00:002022-03-14T08:50:31.107+00:00I watched the first episode of Season 2 after fini...I watched the first episode of Season 2 after finishing the post and the difference in the child actors now they're two years older is immense. They all have so much more nuance and control. It's only one episode so I shoulsn't draw too many conclusions yet, but although they are all more fluent and skilled in the process of acting now, it was striking how differently they'd matured.<br /> <br />Esperanza, who was always the most convincing, seems the same but more so. Dion, who was always a little wooden, despite being the lead character, still feels a little artificial at times but by now I tend to see that as part of the character rather than a flaw in the acting. He's inside his head a lot so it makes sense. The really big change, though, is Jonathan. He was always okay but now he just seems completely natural. His timing is excellent and his line readings just sound right, somehow. As for the plot... I have no idea where that's going now!Bhagpusshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03499162165023939880noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1510920011443550663.post-17223331484444619082022-03-13T22:32:12.008+00:002022-03-13T22:32:12.008+00:00I do the exact same thing with Star Trek when I re...I do the exact same thing with Star Trek when I rewatch it. I watch an episode, stew on it, head to the Star Trek Rewatch webiste to see what other peaple thought. Sometimes I add on to the conversation, but mainly I am looking to either agree or disagree whith what other people think so that I can crystallize my own opinions.<br /><br />On the show, I really enjoyed it on the balance. The child actors were in a bit over their heads with some of the material, which occasionally pulled me out of the show. However, like you I thought they did about as well as could be expected from 7 and 8 year olds. Overall an interesting spin on the genre, with likable characters I was happy to spend time with. The twist near the end was very unexpected to me. Need to finish out season 2 at some point.Yeebohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08028940396189544294noreply@blogger.com
