If you really disliked the show that much then why did you keep watching for 5 seasons?

1. Because I thought it would get better. I was wrong.

2. There are actually elements of the world that I find interesting. Unfortunately the number of things that are unforgivable about the show far outweigh its merits.

3. I wanted to understand why the show was written the way it was. I tried to give the writers as much opportunity to show me something different or interesting, and I felt that a few seasons was enough for them to do that. How would I be able to properly critique a show if I quit watching it after one season?

Ended up with : Altered Fluid and Electrolyte balance, hyponatremia r/t hemodilution associated with fluid volume excess and sodium loss. 

I’ve had Quills on DVD for like 2 years sitting on my shelf and I still haven’t seen it, what did you think?

Immediately after I watched Quills, I watched Antichrist, so uhhh... I don't remember it too well.  It was fine, I think, kinda fucked up, but nothing near Antichrist.

What did you think??

What did you think of this film? I really did not care for it at all, although it may have been because I saw the masterfully made Fruitvale Station right before it in theaters.

What’s the significance of watching it 451236? Why not watch it 456123? You’re just like my best friend, he watched them all this year and he doesn’t really like them either (including the originals). I love the originals though!

I dunno.  I read a post one time on Tumblr that very strongly advocated watching them that way and they had lots of reasons (the argument is based on this post I believe).  Anyway it made sense for me simply because I can be very easily discouraged in series and shows and will give them up if they make me feel too bad (I gave up Community for a long time because Troy's 21st birthday episode depressed me so much).  

So there's no way I would have gotten through if I'd done 123456.  And if I'd done 456123, I would have probably never even watched the prequels just on reputation.  Which I'm sure some people would say is fine.  But 451236 is getting me a good foundation (4 and 5 were pretty good), some time to suffer through, but then I get 6 to look forward to and end on a good note so I might be excited for the upcoming movies.  Plus some Star Wars fanatics thing this is a good way to watch them, even encourage this order over others, so I will follow their recommendations as they know best.

Alyssa made a good point when she said most people our age who really love the movies grew up with them.  Which makes a lot of sense.  I think they're fine, I do not get why they're so huge in pop culture, and they are not the best films ever made.  But I could see how my parents' generation would love them at the time and show them to their kids and get them hooked, or kids would find them and love them on their own.  My dad was the movie watcher in our family and he only saw the first one and it didn't click with him, so he didn't pass it on to me, and anyway I'm just getting around to them now (I actually refused to watch them before and it was like a talking point, I love movies so much and have seen a bunch but not Star Wars), so they don't have the impact on me that they have on many people (at least that's my theory).  But with the upcoming movies, I thought I should finally get on the bandwagon.

The third one is decent, you’re almost through these awful prequels! lol

YES YES YES!
