aenSHOW REVIEW - PANTHEON
👥 watched with: galack
🖋️ score: 9/10
rare to see an animated show tackling a single concept and then iterating on it and expanding on it until it becomes impossibly grand like pantheon has. when you start the first episode you cant fathom where this story will lead us, its actually incredible. i absolutely love the science fiction and politics of this, the questions around identity and personhood, and many others i can't say because it would spoil.
in terms of the two seasons, season 2 both disappointed and exhilerated me. i love season 1 for both its scifi and its people-focused stories, and while season 2 has a lot more scifi and even some politics, it fell short on the people front and i think its for an obvious reason. this need to be a 3 season show, and they chose to end it with a truncated second season mushing two potential ones together because season 1 was cancelled for a while. i understand why it was structured like that, but it still made season 2 feel odd.
despite it feeling rushed, the start and end of season 2 were incredible. i think the ending of this show might take the crown for the greatest rushed ending ive ever seen, and its clear how ambitious they were with this story. i really wish they could have gotten to tell it in more episodes because i have so many questions...
i love this show and it'll live rent-free in my brain for a while

aenthology's ★★★½ review of Dimension 20
surprisingly i enjoyed this more than i thought i would! not a wrestling fan at all, but it really warms my heart that these four players with next to no dnd knowledge or experience got to experience the joy of tabletop roleplay and use all of their live wrestling performance experience to do it!! sure the setting was kinda basic, it was very battle-heavy, the players were passive a lot of the time, etc. but they were also pretty funny and i think brennan did a great job at guiding them through this. i think there's enough juice here for a season 2 so i hope they make it happen
