OT: Let's talk about movies (and TV shows)... Part VI

[MasterDecoy]

As was said, ahs, season 1 incredible, season 2 I thought was better, 3 I never finished it was so meh, season 4, as a result of season 3, I haven't gotten to yet but have heard great things...

Dominic-eh nic-eh nic-eh

 

[mitchmagic]

Yeah Nightcrawler ruled.

 

[Mrb1p]

Watched the 2nd episode of Unsere mutter, unsere vater and **** has hit the fan. 2nd episode is a lot stronger than the first one, although it doesn't end with a huge cliff-hanger like the first one did. Really good show, watch this.


Started watching Arrow a week ago, from season 1. I gotta say it's a pretty strong tv-show and probably better than The Flash.

The double story past/present makes it an amazing thrill ride throughout the episodes.

Has anyone here watched that new Netflix show Marco Polo?

I watched the first episode but it felt a bit dull honestly. Too slow moving.

I watched 2 and that was it. Like you say, it's kinda boring and too slow.

 

[habsfanatics*]

Yeah Nightcrawler ruled.

I thought it was just ok. Based on what I read here I was certainly expecting more.

No, Nightcrawler was an excellent movie and it was made with a small budget. Jake Gyllenhaal's performance was amazing, he just keeps on getting crazier throughout the movie.

Not a fan of affleck but Gone Girl is a really good movie

 

[Habsawce]

I like Black Sails, if anyone is into pirate shows. It's on Starz so there's a fair amount of nudity if you're into that kind of thing.

Who the hell watches movies like that?

Old white people?

Nudity? Judging by the first episode the wigs were much more shocking, to be honest.

Still an interesting show, though.

I am with you on all aspects of this sentence. Gone Girl and The Town were good.

On the subject...

How can guess without googling what movie this is.

The violent story about how a criminal lesbian, a tough-guy hit-man with a heart of gold, and a mentally challenged man came to be best friends through a hostage.

I did have to google it and came up with one of the worst movies of all time according to critics. I was one of the few who hated Argo too.



Two recents I enjoyed not related to Affleck:

This is Where I Leave You
Boyhood

 

[Braun]

If there is anyone into war documentaries watch Restrepo and then Korengal (kind of sequel).
I really liked it, honest look into normal soldiers in Afghanistan. Slightly biased but interesting nonetheless.

 

[Agnostic]

Did you see The Equalizer?

The Equalizer was like James Reimer. Ok. Just ok.

nudity? thanks, ill make sure to steer away from it

first season progressed a bit slowly but ended on a good note. season 2 out yet?

i know it's a bit old, but i just rewatched The Last Gladiators. love nylan, guy bleeds canadiens. even his mom says she despises the bruins

 

[MasterDecoy]

also old, just watched The Colony. not a bad movie. they managed to bag Morpheus and Hudson and it's a decent script overall. ****ing knew they wouldn't give me closure at the end

Wtfff. The last episode of Homeland was the season finale? Big disappointment.

LOL yeah, the british and spanish and their silly wigs. Just think, it wasn't until too long ago that lawyers and judges had to wear those in court.

Season 2 starts in January, I looked it up.

I know right? Worst season finale I think I've ever seen, which makes it worse since the season was so good.

SPOILER**

How can the Dar Adal thing end so anti-climactic, like seriously? He did it all so that Saul could become Director? I doubt it, dumb as hell.

 

[MasterDecoy]

did mel brooks get not funny or did hollywood get too PC for him?

seize this honkus!

Ya that was pretty lame. Ridding in the terrorist's car, the guy that just destroyed you in Pakistan, just so you can have the video of Saul back? What? Terrible. And what was even the point of the the mother/step bro story line?? Just a waste of an episode.

If they were serious about the show, something insane would have happened with Quinn. Like Dar Adal capturing him and turning him over, or killing him. Or Quinn suicide bombing Akani (sp?). They completely screwed the pooch on the finale and ruined the entire season.

There wasn't even anything meaningful with Lockhart, who was a major player in the last few episodes and was getting interesting. Especially with how he gave in to the terrorists.

Unacceptable. People should be fired.

I almost didn't watch this season because of how horrible the writing had gotten, and only did so because of people here talking about how good the season was compared to the last. And it was good, it was excellent up until this point. So disappointed.

Watched transcendence, I must say that it was really dull for a good cast and big budget. The pacing was bad, the sci fi seemed tacked on, I wanted to enjoy it but it just felt so "paint by numbers".
