I love you, son.
So, this dropped a few days ago and I just finished it. Really good stuff. Casting for Esme and Carmelita was spot-on in particular.

My only real issue was the pacing was a bit too fast at times, there wasn't much room for some more quiet moments.

Anyone else watch it?


 
Hahahaha very funny Zonda

There's too much Olaf in it, but 4 episodes in it's really good.

I finished it yesterday. That cliffhanger ending though.

Now I gotta wait until next year for season 3, which if they really are following the books to a tea, it will be the last season.

Nathan Fillion as Jacques Snicket. I have to say, I am glad they got him instead of some generic nobody (That's right I'm talking about you Mr Fucking Poe)

Mr Poe is such a huge condescending idiot in the Netflix series. He was naive in the books from what I remember and in the movie as well, but his character in this series..... complete fucking moron.

I actually find Count Olaf to be more likeable than Mr. Poe, and I hated Count Olaf in the books. I hate him in the series too but a lot less because Poe's character is just too fucking cringy to even feel sorry for.

I do agree that the pacing is rushed. That's something I liked about the movie. The pacing was right in the movie, while everything else in the movie was just wrong.

You know, this series is very likely going to get me to want to read the books again.

Thinking about ordering all 13 books now...

I think Ersatz Elevator suffered most from the fast pacing. There was no time to develop Jerome's relationship with the Baudelaires more, but enough for another musical number from Olaf.

Nathan Fillion was a surprising choice but he turned out perfectly. It's nice for him to get a role that isn't quippy meme man like Halo 5 Buck or Cayde-6 from Destiny.

As for Poe, I actually really like his portrayal. He's a bit shoehorned in later episodes but he brilliantly encompasses the complete incompetence and ignorance of most of the adults in the series. That said, there's always been that theory about him just putting on an act as a secret member of VFD, which the show could very well follow through with if they decide to change it up.

Honestly, I am curious to see how The End will turn out in this series.
