GUYS! WHO IS WATCHING LEGION ???

I had kind of forgotten about it but while I was setting up the FXNOW app so we could watch the new season of The Americans, I decided to give it a try and OMG WOW. I think I might like it more than any of the Netflix Marvel series. And not just because Dan Stevens is a hot hottie. If you've posted about the show and I've missed it, please link me!

Also, sorry about the lack of commenting. I swear, I have just lost my daily rhythm since sometime in February. I was doing well with my little daily stretch/workouts and reading LJ and getting to bed on time and recently that has all gone *poof*. Goals for next week: get my shit together again.

That and I started playing LEGO Star Wars: The Force Awakens and the cuteness was too hard to pull myself away from. I beat the main story mode on Tuesday and it said I only had 26% done. Which is why I love LEGO games because they are HUGE and ridiculous. I started chipping away at the free play missions last night. My Mom got me the deluxe edition so it came with all the DLC so I have a Rebels character pack and I had WAY too much fun running around as Ashoka and then Sabine.

I also started Resident Evil: Biohazard which is SO GOOD but also VERY SCARY. It wasn't so bad after I died a few times, but things do jump out at you. And the whole atmosphere makes me tense. I did have nightmares. I have decided I can only play it on sunny days, early in the afternoon, so my brain has some time to move on to less scary things. The story has me pulled in, I want to find out more, but there's no way I am playing this game when the sun goes down or if I am home alone. NOPE.

Like I mentioned in my last post, I pre-ordered Mass Effect: Andromeda because Christmas money and Bioware. Even a bad Bioware game is still better than most other games out there, plus I just love their whole gameplay style. I'm dodging the spoilers, as people with EA Access can play a 10 hour trial and are, of course, complaining. But I want to play it myself and as the game is technically "free" for me since I'm using a gift card, I'm just going to enjoy it.

The Americans is off to a good start too. I'm glad they've picked an end date for the series too, so it's like they are working towards this crazy finale and not just trying to stretch things out. Anyone watching? Link me to your reaction posts please!

Just noticed today that Hulu has Season 3 of Steven Universe!!!!!!!!!!! Tim and I are going to go sip our tea and watch a few episodes now.

I haven't started Legion yet, but I know someone who is watching it and loving it!

but things do jump out at you
That's enough to make me jump in a game lol. I jumped the first time the Nemesis jumped out of a window at me in Resident Evil. I was like AHHHHHHHH,

I'm watching Legion! (But I haven't seen the most recent ep - no spoilers lol) The guy IS a hottie. And the show is really fascinating (I don't like that it's so slow but I like the characters).

[ragnarok-08.livejournal.com]

I've heard about Legion - I might check it out soon.

[geekslave.livejournal.com]

Have people on my FL watching "Legion" and loving it. Just haven't had the chance to check it out.

Good luck with getting back your daily rhythm.

I AM!!! Legion is sooo great! :D

[place-to-hide.livejournal.com]

I haven't seen Legion. I don't know if I want to see it or not.

[spaciireth.livejournal.com]

"Get shit together again" is also my goal for next week. I don't know what's been happening or where all the time is going.

[snogged.livejournal.com]

I'm glad you're enjoying yourself. :)

I've been watching Legion and really enjoying it, though I haven't seen this week's episode yet. At first I was iffy, but it grabbed me pretty quickly. And yes, a super hot Dan Stevens makes it easy to like :)

I constantly find myself trying to see Matthew Crawley in him. I know it's the same guy, but if I didn't KNOW then I wouldn't know. Y'know what I mean? Maybe I'm just spouting crazy.

*raises hand* I am watching Legion. I'm so glad we finally have a mutant show and, damn, it sure looks like it. In comparison, Agents of SHIELD does little with the Inhumans, though it depends on the arcs.

GUYS! WHO IS WATCHING LEGION ???
I AM I AM I AM!
I LOVE IT I LOVE IT I LOVE IT!

And not just because Dan Stevens is a hot hottie.
One of the good reasons to go see Beauty and the Beast! :D

I miiiiight have mentioned "Legion"? I can't remember now lol. I'm a few episodes behind at this point, though.

I'm enjoying it because it's a complete but well done mindfuck. I have to wonder if the showrunner knows exactly where it's going to end based on other shows like it (I'm looking at you, LOST) that fell down hard when it was time to wrap.

I started playing LEGO LOTR last night!! I LOVE LEGO games!! :D I have SO many of them!
The one I got the closest to completion was LEGO Batman on the PS3...like 98%.

I haven't started Legion yet, but i've got the pilot on my itunes. Maybe I'll get to it this weekend

And no worries getting behind. I've been off my rhythm as well since last week.

I'm a fool for The Americans and Legion both, but I never really write anything about my reactions. Sigh. But yes, I'm into them!!!

[orangerful.livejournal.com]

They are both SO GOOD! I didn't really know what to expect from Legion, I knew it had an X-Men connection but I am just in love with the whole thing. This week's episode had me yelling at the TV as it ended because UGH I HATE WAITING A WEEK TO SEE WHAT HAPPENS NEXT!

[mimoiikit143.livejournal.com]

I AM WATCHING LEGION AND LOOOOVING IT. It's one of those shows where there are so many things happening and you don't really understand why they're happening or where it's gonna lead to so everything is just confusing and all over the place but it's so damn good you can't stop watching and I can't wait to understand everything lol

[elizalavelle.livejournal.com]

So many shows! I haven't watched any of the ones you've mentioned yet but all are on my list. Maybe I should give up sleeping ;)

[silverusagi]

Did The Americans start?! I need to catch up.

Also, random: Has the Star Trek rewatch been abandoned?

[orangerful.livejournal.com]

Yeah, it started the second week of March, I think? So you're not too far behind! Easy to catch up!

I keep meaning to pick up Star Trek again. My friend that i was doing it with at work got distracted by his noir film obsession in November and threw the whole thing off! I should pick it back up though, things were finally starting to get good! Plus I need to start riding my stationary bike again and get back in shape!
