Umbrella Academy

[Ockie]

Agreed top notch soundtrack.

The Queen song (think it's Don't Stop Me Now) in one of the earlier episodes was epic in that context.

Apparently one of the creators of the comics is that dude from My Chemical Romance. Might have something to do with it...

If any of you come across a Tata Bolt on the road blasting Tiffany "I think we are alone now" you know it is me.

Well since seeing Bohemian Rhapsody, I have a rock crave and drive - as a maniac as usual - with Queen or Nirvana full blast.

 

[TribbleZA]

I have FOB

Kinda of enjoying it as well, albeit on the slow side. I find Ellen Page very annoying though - not the character, her.

She has no idea you exist. So if someone you don't know exists finds you annoying?

Hmmm

Love Number 5 as character, but somehow I can't really seem to get into the series. I watch a couple of episodes every other day, but there's nothing that draws me in to the extent that I want to binge it.

Noooooooooo , they can’t end it like they did

 

[TribbleZA]

Noooooooooo , they can’t end it like they did

Oh thanks - now I have to wait in agony

You can try Doom Patrol in the meantime.

IDGAF - I'm not trying to make a living as an actress in Hollywood - if you put yourself in the public eye, expect the public to have an opinion about you.

I also find her annoying. Trying too hard? Very unnatural.

At episode 8. Really slow. Too many personal ‘issues’. But it seems that it is picking up at episode 8.

The trailer had a more fun and action feel. (False advertising)

Really good soundtrack

 

[Scary_Turtle]

I watched it, it was ok.

The last 2 episodes were pretty cool but the entire time I was thinking did they just copy most of the story from X-men.

Umbrella academy to x-men
Hargreaves = prof x
Vanja = Jean grey
luther = beast
Diego = the guy who gets knives from storm can't really remember
Number 5 = one of the many time travelers from xmen or a combination of a few.
Allison = I don't think there are direct comparisons.

It did unfortunately. Now it's hurry up and wait for season 2.

Spoiler: Spoiler in Episode 3

Did anyone spot this in Episode 3?

The whole thing dragged on for too long.

Was reading, it could take as long as 2 years , if it gets renewed took them 18 months to make the first season

But what a epic show

 

[marco79]

I'm watching 1 or 2 episodes a day. Watched Episode 7 yesterday. I'm really enjoying it, although it is slow paced. Hopefully in the next few episodes it picks up a bit.

Finished Nightflyer last night then started on this and watched EP1. Yes a bit slow like some of the Marvel type series we have seen recently. But i will watch any sci-fi type ****.

Let's see how it goes.

Good start to the post-Marvel world of Netflix.
