Grimlock ♥ Ultra Magnus
Grimlock ♥ Ultra Magnus rated it 8 years ago
But the thing is that this kind of throws us into the middle of things. Being number one, I expected at least Gambit's blindness to be explained, but nothing. I was grasping at straws trying to figure out some things, and that dimmed some enjoyment as much of my attention was divided between the ...

This is big bold...

There’s an old writing rule attributed to Chekhov: “If in the first act you have hung a pistol on the wall, then in the following one it should be fired. Otherwise, don’t put it there.”This concept deals with foreshadowing, and the fact that all details, however small, are significant and should be ...
