The only thing that is better than Harrelson's line deliveries in Billboards is Harrelson being freaked out/throwing shade at McConaughey in True Detective

BTW season 2 is hugely underrated

Agreed. Definitely not as good as the first, but great in its own right.

 

[StarLord]

Farrell and McAdams were very good.

The writing was weak though.

Vince Vaughn was very good too.

I'm struggling with True Detective maynes....

I think maybe it's because everybody hyped it as the greatest thing ever done, and it could never live up to those expectations....

Or maybe it's because everytime I watch it I'm stoned and sleep AF and dozing off all the time....

I think maybe, maaaayyybe, it's the second option; apparently I made it half way through episode 4 last night (obviously, I don't remember it), and I think part of the lack of enthusiasm is because I really don't care about the case they're solving (like....there's a murderer, right???)

Now the moment of truth: what to do?? Do I start again (clear headed) or do I keep going from episode 4??? I feel like I definitely know the "basics" of where the story is right now, but I obviously missed the little details, and I take it that in a show like this, everything is in the details....right??

 

[BH/HHH]

Keep going with it, might aswell see it through now.

Don't bother with S2 though it's garbage.

The orgy episode and that gigantic shootout in the street topped that one long take from season 1

Thanks for the advice/encouragement, I appreciate it.

I'll energetically reject the bolded tho; I never listen to comments like this....

...only the sith deals in absolutes.

Fair enough

It's not connected to S1 at all though so it works as high a jumping off and jumping on point.

Yeah, the whole anthology thing, which is cool of course.

I know I'll definitely continue with season one, hoping that being more awake will help me; I think also the fact that I have a hard time understanding what most characters are saying doesn't help either (I have a bit of difficulty sometimes with strong southern accents) and not having helpful subtitles well....man's gotta focus a lot more!! Hopefully I haven't missed any vital details from before episode 4.

Listen to me, and listen closely to me now.

Star over. Watch the episodes with your outmost attention.

After you've finished S1, and feel overwhelmed, you will wish you could relive this feeling the first time again. Dont waste it.

This show deserves your outmost attention man.

BTW rewatched Rogue One. Hands down, the best Disney Star Wars movie, way better than Ep 7 and 8. Brilliant cinematography, badass score, I liked all the characters, and a brilliant connecting piece to Ep4. Nothing will ever top the Vader scene, and I really liked Krenic's theme.

The VFX is astounding at times, cant fathom how they do it with a 200M budget. And the fact this went through major reshoots, its unthinkable. Such a well made movie.

idiot09, thanks for your response.

You know I respect and value your opinion highly, and that I see you as a friend and a brother-in-arms in this never ending battle of ours....that's why if I commit to this non-smokery and rewatch all of these (3 hours of) episodes and commit to even more non-smokery to finish the seasons and it doesn't absolutely and completely blow my mind-hole, I'm gonna come looking for you motherhugger!!!!

I'll take that risk.

And after you finish watching it, ping me, I'll hit you up with an article which will surely make you lose your ****. So many hidden meanings and symbolism and recurring motifs.

Just forget the hype, and go in with an empty mind and just go for the ride man.

 

[Micromind]

For me, Rogue One and the Original trilogy are the only Star Wars films worth watching.

Welp, I just spent the entirety of last night bingewatching Daredevil season 2 (finally).

Onto the Punisher.

That awkward moment when a JL stop-motion film has better action sequences than the actual film.

Read the part about the recurring imagery of the 5 people...chilling.

That was so nice! It really reminded me of playing with action figures (including the silly dialog ) it's pretty obvious that lots of effort went into it and it shows.

That "post-credit" scene tho....

Spoiler

Almost like I did it. Difference being is I stayed more than one night watching DD season 2.

True Detective

Rewatched awhile ago and came to the conclusion...Lili Simmons>Daddario.

Spoiler

Viggo is wild I still remember him and Fassbender getting drunk and saying all sorts of stuff when they were promoting A Dangerous Method.

Better than the movie

These are still funny:
