Sense8 rambling

I should be in bed but am, unsurprisingly, watching Sense8. I did graciously allow us to watch a couple eps of Z Nation and an ep of Grimm firs, so we are all caught up on those ( Read more... )

sense8, intensely focussed

I Remember how super excited I was about Sense8 this summer! I wasn't online though, so I didn't post on LJ nor reblog anything on Tumblr about it. I'm glad to see people who've just found out the show feel the same way about it!
I never for one second thought that Rajan could be a bad guy, I always felt kinda sorry for him, actually.

They way the Cluster are wholly interconnected with each other is such a beautiful thing that for once I like to enjoy something on a pure emotional level, without necessarily trying to "vivisect" their behaviour towards each other. About that group sex scene I must say I partially agree on what the person you quoted said: Wolf is focused on Kala and therefore reacts differently than the others, but I also agree that Wolf has less hang ups about sex as opposed to Will. I don't know if that's about being German or just being himself, though XD

I couldn't tell that the naked walking by was Kala in Wolfgang's imagination (possibly because I wouldn't expect an Indian girl to be naked, but i guess it is Wolfgang's brain *g*)

I felt that Wolfgang was involved - there are two seperate scenes where he is sitting up and actively participating with other sensates. maybe it's a bit of both?

He does have that line about not having hangups about nudity because of being German.

Sense8 ate me alive and I loved it, I found it so compelling and interesting. You're not the only one who has been on a Sense8 reblogging spree :D :D

Also, I'm kind of shipping Adalind/Nick too, they do have more chemistry than Juliet/Nick ever had. Well if you ask me, and Juliet was killed off when she first got interesting...Anyhow the current season is great :)

Neery and I stopped watching Grimm because Neery is really pissed they killed Juliette - and I'm no longer invested enough to watch on my own.

I like the Captain, and noone else, basically - although if Juliette now comes back different, is there a chance for more Sean/Juliette? Hmm.... . This show is nicely changing things around every season, I like that. Some twists interest me more, some less, but until this season, I've always come back. Maybe I will again.

Sense8... I thought the fandom was pretty inclusive and loved everyone, including Capheus. It's really unusual how they managed to create a cluster of people that are all lovable.

About the sex scene... hm. I didn't really think about who came and who didn't, but I think they were definitely all participating and all aroused. I don't see much of a difference between mentally and physically having sex.

I shipped Juliet/Renaud when they were under that spell, and would be very happy to again if they keep the Nick/Adelind relationship developing.

..if you don't really like many of the characters there's probably not much point watching it all. I don't understand, because I love almost everyone, but live and let live I suppose\\

Why 'including Capheus'? he was adorable, don't tell me people don't like him :(

Yep i hear you on the physical/mental not making the difference. It was awesome!

No, I just said that because at first you seemed to think he was excluded - I never got that impression at all.

It's not that I actively dislike them, I'm just not very invested. I like Trouble a lot, too, but she left as well. I knew from the start that she was coming back, so that wasn't really a reason to leave, but... I don't know. It really was a thing that Neery and I watched together (except for the Sean/Juliette part in season 2), so I need to find motivation for myself to watch it again first.

Oh, right, that was when i was scrolling through tumblr for EVER and there was no Capheus until I switched to using his name as the keyword.

If you've got other shows to watch is it worth it? i can tell you Trouble is back by now.
