#k so i’m watching season 2 of jessica jones — nearing the end and it’s time for A Rant
#let me just start with blehhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
#swapped out themes of recovery and self-discovery and moving past trauma
#and learning how to let other people in and how to love them and trust them after horrible life-altering trauma
#for themes of...overwrought family drama?
#friends bickering endlessly...? and making dumbshit decisions...?
#i can appreciate that they didn’t want another obviously overtly despicably evil villain like kilgrave again
#jeri’s arc is the only one that interests me at this point
#i find her character horrendous and entertaining as fuck
#but like the half-assed themes of addiction and family (drama) are just dragging onnnnnnnnnnnn without any purpose or fulfillment
#this season completely lacks the drive or structure or coherency or smart themes or ideas that season 1 had
#why didn’t they just bring simpson back as a villain like he was built in and everything
#the whole ‘whoops your mom has actually been alive this whole time and has SuPeRpOwErS’ is just kind of dumb
#not to mention it’s already essentially been done by alias and alias did it better
#i can understand trish’s dogged pursuit of the truth regardless of the consequences
#bc she’s so desperate to make a difference and prove herself beyond the patsy bullshit
#but the whole addiction storyline just feels like a desperate attempt to inject drama
#and a lazy way to keep trish relevant to the plotline in a more GASP y way
#bc of course she had to desire jessica’s abilities just like malcolm has to want her job and approval
#and her mom just wants her undying and unconditional love
#and the real villain of the season is everyone’s internal struggle with addiction to booze or drugs or self-purpose or MuRdEr
#blah blah jessica is cynical and hard-hearted and it’s screwing folks over blah
#it’s the whole ensmallening of the universe problem
#even the first season didn’t revolve around jessica so intensely
#yes it dealt with jessica’s demons but it also integrated other people who had been hurt by kilgrave
#it wasn’t just jessica’s story with other stories messily shoehorned in to revolve around hers
#also this season is just kind of repetitive
#idk i feel bad bc all of the actors are doing a good job and the production is good
#but the story and dialogue are just lukewarm compared to last season
#le siiiiiiigh
