Sivin Posted January 14, 2013 Share Posted January 14, 2013 Season two is OK, even season three is ok, just slightly less so and so on. You're safe to watch the rest of season 2I'll look into it. *gives firm head-nod* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arbor Gold Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 Could you maybe re-title the thread so it contains some clue as to what the fuck it is about? Thanks. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
polishgenius Posted January 17, 2013 Share Posted January 17, 2013 Just watched 3-Iron, by Kim Ki-Duk. The one about a drifter who lives in people's houses while they're away and fixes their stuff. It's even weirder than the premise makes it sound, but it's very good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mexal Posted January 17, 2013 Share Posted January 17, 2013 I don't know if anyone else is watching Top Chef, but if you are...that blows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spring Bass Posted January 17, 2013 Share Posted January 17, 2013 I will be watching Archer tomorrow, either live or (more likely) on recording. I also just watched the Venture Bros Halloween Special, something which I am very sad to have missed when I recently discovered the series and watched it all the way through.

RedEyedGhost Posted January 17, 2013 Share Posted January 17, 2013 Great, great night of comedy last night (Tues). Happy Endings killed it as always - Penny interacting with her new BF's friends was awesome. Fox's entire line-up was solid. Cougar Town went with some GoT references, including this bit of hilarity:JULES: You know I've almost figured out which one of those dudes is from the future. The redheaded on..e.TRAVIS: None of them.JULES: None of them. **nods head in utter confusion**And Van Der Beek killed it yet again on Don't Trust the B.I watched the movie Pitch Perfect the other day, and it was both terrible and extremely funny at times. Anna Kendrick and a redheaded Brittany Snow made it worth my time. :drool: As did watching Adam Devine as the antagonistic, full-on-douche-tastic leader of the rival group was great.I also caught Compliance... I still feel dirty.And Killer Joe. WTF was that?? [spoier]Joe: A BABY!?!I'm also now working on season 2 of Fringe, up to about episode 9. It's been really good lots of cool cases and a really good episode with the Observers. Season 1 really spoiled me with those 50 minute episodes. Although, Walter Bishop is a really close talker; dude needs to back up a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndrewBaelish Posted January 17, 2013 Share Posted January 17, 2013 Watched Looper, The Woman in Black, and Killer Joe the other day. Looper was great. WiB was alright. And Killer Joe... I don't know. It wasn't what I was expecting. But it had great performances. But a bit too... disturbing for my tastes. And I never say that about a movie.Anyway, missed Justified this week =(But now, watching Love Actually for the first time. I like it. Bill Nighy, Andrew Lincoln, Liam Neeson, Keira Knightly, and Alan Rickman. What's not to like?Plan on seeing Gangster Squad and Mama this week.

andrew_ Posted January 17, 2013 Share Posted January 17, 2013 Saw Silver Linings Playbook and loved it, great performances all round. Watched 50/50 again and have to say its JGL best performance to date, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Francis Buck Posted January 17, 2013 Share Posted January 17, 2013 Watched the first episode of Twin Peaks last night. I'm intrigued. It's a little bit dated, but still of higher quality than like 90% of normal TV today. I'll definitely be continuing it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arbor Gold Posted January 17, 2013 Share Posted January 17, 2013 Started watching Battlestar Galactica after one of my very drunk friends really sold it to me at a NYE party. I'm four episodes into season 2 and I'm digging it. It's not great television, but it is remarkably watchable and entertaining, like a soap opera crossed with Rome set in space.The BSG watching led me to comment that I had never seen Stand and Deliver, so that was rectified Tuesday night.

One of Three Posted January 17, 2013 Share Posted January 17, 2013 Been Watching the Sopranos lately. It's quite good and if anything I just watch it for Meadow :drool: . Bought Breaking Bad season 1-3 on DVD so gonna see what they're like in the next few days.^^^^I tried to watch BsG because all my mates raved about it. I watched it and I gave up after 2/3 episodes (no counting the 3 hour pilot), just was not getting it at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Laura's theme is incredibly dark/creepy/mysterious/mesmerizing/beautiful. Also, that one scene, without Julee Cruise singing?... it just wouldn't work.There's an very well made fan-edit on youtube with only the scenes pertaining to the Laura Palmer case (so basically, the Packard storyline, Nadine and all the rest of the filler is out) + Fire walk with me. It's around 5h long but it makes for great television.edit: scratch that it was removed :/ bummer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WarGalley Posted January 17, 2013 Share Posted January 17, 2013 Caught Looper last night. Fantastic storyline – I was not expecting anything like the way this movie turned out. It’s nice to see an original science fiction movie again. These last few years I’ve only liked District 9, Moon and (somewhat) Prometheus in that department and I don’t think there’s been anything else made out there but someone go ahead and fill me in.Joseph Gordon Levitt has graduated to my, if he’s in it, it’s probably a good movie list. Man has an eye those scripts. It was also nice to see Bruce Willis in something like. I wish he’d branch out more because I thought his career was on the verge of dying with the Die Hard franchise or whatever random movie where he plays John McClane under a different name.I'm only now getting into Dexter. I finished S2 last night. I'm really liking it so far. The first Showtime show that's really worked for me. I like Homeland, but I don't love it.I'm only now getting into Dexter.

Good antagonist, really dug the storyline and good acting all around. I haven’t been back to it since, since I think it drops off and I prefer to think of the series on a high note.
