OT: TV and Movie Thread (with spoilers)

[SupremeHustle]

Holy ****.........that's Christian Bale underneath all that makeup?

My sentiments exactly.

Oscar hunting like a mf but that impression is UNCANNY and freaks me out a little.

I agree. The first two seasons were very very good. They maintained the humor of the movies while also digging into Riggs heartbreaking past. It was one of the only shows that I cared if I saw every week.

This seasons first episode was not promising. Hopefully Stifler settles in and improves but he's definitely not as good of fit as Crawford.

I really enjoyed the first two seasons of Lethal Weapon and it was a bummer to see Clayne Crawford fired. Sean Williams Scott is his replacement and if the first episode last night is any indication, I might be dumping the show. That said, it was good seeing Maggie Lawson working again.

I didnt catch it but the trailer looked promising. Did it seem like it was really questionable acting or was it just awful writing?

Watched the premiere of Manifest. Not sure how I feel about it yet, but it was interesting enough that I'll tune in next week. I thought the acting started out pretty bad though, so I hope that improves.

I was debating between the two. I went with bad acting in hopes that it's a chemistry thing that would develop as the show went on. Some of the dialogue was questionable though. I'm still interested to see where it's going, but I won't hesitate to stop watching.

Plowing through Better Call Saul and I prefer it to Breaking Bad.

I know some people who feel the same way. I like BCS but I still prefer BB. While it's interesting to see how things developed pre BB the fact that we know the outcome of most (not all) of these characters and plots diminishes BCS somewhat. I hope at some point they jump past BB and go full time to Omaha. I don't know if Gilligan ever plans to do that though or if he will end BCS where BB begins. But I think there's a reason he jumps to Omaha at the beginning of each season. We'll see.

Gosh I hope so (continuing the Omaha story). I was thinking the same thing. That show could go on for years. I love the slow burn and could watch Odenkirk all day and night.

SNL-Mr. Show-BB/BCS. He's been a huge part of entertaining me for years.

I think we'll get a pretty healthy dose of Omaha by the end of this series. They have went to it too often with little bread crumbs to not have some payoff.

I like the show and will continue to watch but at this point I do think some of the criticism about them basically running Jimmy and Mike as two completely different stories is valid. IMO the storylines should be move blended together by now.

Now Wayans is quitting after this 13 episode season.

“I’m going to be quitting the show in December after we finish the initial 13,” Wayans said in a video interview. “So I really don’t know what they’re planning, but that’s what I’m planning. I’m a 58-year-old diabetic and I’m working 16-hour days.”

Wish he would have just quit after season 2. Crawford could have stayed.

Only caught bits and pieces of what happened with LW but Wayans has come off as a diva the entire time.

I didnt mind Wayans in this role. He isnt a bad actor. Looks like Lethal Weapon is dead.

Watched the first episode of Maniac last night and liked it a lot. Please don't tell me if it becomes very bad.

It gets very silly.

[Ron Swanson]

I don't understand how Jonah Hill keeps getting all these serious dramatic roles.

[emunney]

He's a good actor!

****. This looks amazing.

new season of Man in the High Castle arrived today. It's been almost two years since season 2 and I barely remember a thing about it, much less where they left off. But I think I remember liking it,,?

Exactly I was excited for this show about a year ago but I barely remember a thing about it. Really don’t feel like rewatching just to remember.

I scoffed at the length here but I watched all 30 minutes and I'm glad I did, because it does a great job getting you amped for the 3rd season.

Perfect recap it’s amazing how much I forgot. Amped to start season 3 now.

Just finished breaking bad for the 3rd time through. Don't know that I'll ever get sick of watching that show.
