Oh I'm sorry, Did I Break Your Conversation........Well Allow Me A Movie Thread by S&T

I heard Maze Runner was terrible.
But it felt like the opinion of the person telling me that was trying to say Maze Runner was biting Hunger Games and riding that hype.

And yes we're talking about movies that come on you see it and can't not watch it, for five days now we've talked about it, thanks for spitting out your opinion finally.

Was that last part really necessary?

Your act is tiresome, man.
I figured ppl would go back to ignoring him :lol:
 
Yea i watch brooklyn 99 already lol **** is hilarious

Havent gotten into new girl yet. the one episode i did watch the character they gave zooey was annoying. They made her seem so dumb

Is the mindy show any good?
 
The first half dozen episodes of New Girl are rougher. They're not quite sure how to use Zooey so they just made her far too zany and manic and weird. They tone her down a bit and realized the supporting guys are funnier.

Bob's Burgers, New Girl, Brooklyn Nine Nine, American Dad when it returns on TBS, The League, Always Sunny, others I'm forgetting I'm sure.
 
So its like the first season of parks n rec when they made amy poehlers character hella dumb but changed it after?

The league and always sunny are two of my favs but i feel like both those shows bout to get canned. They moved sunny to mid season and the league has been mediocre so far this season

Netflix needs more comedy sitcoms. They got that new judd apatow show with britta from community coming but not til 2016 and lord knows when the new season of arrested development is coming
 
Yeah, it's similar to that. They still hit those moments of cringe with Zooey, but it happens far less after the first 6-9 episodes.
 
Im looking for some new comedy shows

Two of my favs are ending this season in parks n rec and two n a half men.

Tried watching first two episodes of your the worst but couldnt get past the excessive unnecessary sexual situations in the show
New Girl was already mentioned but I'd definitely try to catch up on earlier seasons
Louie
Broad City
Married (S1 just finished catch it on demand)
You're The Worst (same as above)
Nathan For You
Review
Garfunkel & Oates (not as funny as the others but for some reason I find myself watching all of it and it's not just cuz of the songs)
Silicon Valley (Not funny at first but it build to the hilariousness. Probably catch this on demand or HBOGO)
Orange is the New Black is like part comedy (pretty good)
The League

Is the mindy show any good?
It's okay. New Girl has managed to make me like it enough to follow some of the story lines but with AOS coming back I'll probably have to catch it on reruns.

Can't believe I slept on Pain and Gain so long. Definitely didn't think it was about that. I would add it to my list of flicks I watch every time they come on.

Edit: Forget it, matters none |I

Colin Farrell confirms he's in True Detective Season 2 and I like it. Even though he doesn't have the greatest filmography, I've always been a fan and think he's better then he gets credit for. In his good films, he does a great job but he's just done so much more mediocre and bad movies unfortunately.

I really thought Colin Farrell would be the next upper echelon actor after his role in Minority Report. IMO, he has a solid filmography and even though some of him films have been ill received, I never come out thinking it's because of poor performance by him. With that said, hopefully this will be a springboard for the rest of his career.
 
Colin has his moments. Dudes were just talking about how dope In Bruges is.

He hasn't fell off but he fits the bill as someone who just didn't pan out and I think it's by choice. You look at some of the stuff he's chosen to be in and you can see he's not that driven or ambitious with his craft. Very very good but he aint looking light the film world on fire and push himself consistently.
 
Colin is someone that could be special in TD2 tho. If they cast his 2nd well, he could match Season 1 performances.

Nathan For You is the funniest show on TV IMO.
Broad City is pretty funny too.
 
I think he could be good, but I'm not going to even worry about S2 leads matching or not matching the Season 1 performances that Woody and McConaughey put forth. The upcoming season will have a completely different feel to it (for a purpose, reportedly) and feature a different cast as we all know -- so is that not a different show with the same name?

Based on it being three detectives unfamiliar with one another convening in LA to trio-manage a case, which is what Colin Farrell said in the Vulture piece I read, I really think the actors/actresses who fill out the three detectives should contrast one another in personality and style.

You have Farrell. You can't find a "feel" much different on-screen than Farrell than Peter LaFleur, Wes Mantooth ... or Vince Vaughn, who's been rumored for one of the lead roles in S2. Vaughn is intriguing for the fact that it was an unconventional name to pop up, and I admire his willingness to reach the level of consideration that media outlets were able to grab a hold of it.

I mean, Vaughn should take the role if its there. The atrocity that was Fred Claus was a long time ago now, but things have certainly not picked up since.

But would he and Farrell have the on-screen chemistry that can come from those that project different tones? Or could it be a rigid relationship that would never take off?

There's three leads rumored too... Elizabeth Moss could be the one to fill out the other (as Farrell was a name we saw long ago too before it finally being confirmed months and months after) but who really knows. Haven't seen her in much since I'm not into Mad Men or Top of the Lake yet.

Looking forward to The Blacklist, Sleepy Hollow and Gotham tonight.

As much as I've fallen in love with Arrow, and with Flash upcoming, I wish that Gotham could be connected with those two shows as well. I think it would be a ton of awesome to unite all 3 shows, but not sure if Fox/CW can do something there.

Arrow already has made use of Harley Quinn, and Rhas Al Ghul, and I have seen talk that they could bring other Batman villians over into the Green Arrow world.

Not sure now with Gotham coming alive.
 
The Hoax was great. Molina and Gere did their thing :pimp:

Gere is really really good at playing that scumbag but not classless character that lies to get w/e he wants, schemes hard and manipulates to the point they're the cause of their own downfall. He does it in a way you don't really hate him for his foul **** but you're not rooting for him either. Just has you locked in to the journey and how things will turn out for better or worse. Saw it here where he plays Cliff and in the movie I caught a few weeks ago with Susan Sarandon :evil: and Brit Marling in it. Think it was called Arbitrage.


Now that I mention Brit Marling, not really sure about her talent. She plays these real monotone characters. I liked The East and she wrote or co-wrote that but acting wise I'd say the same thing. Then the other day I caught Another Earth and I could say I wasted my time, pace of the movie was just like her acting, a bit bland at times. Didn't even believe in that sex scene later on. I don't mind them using a dope sci-fi concept as a back drop to tell a real intimate sort of everyday life tragic story but it was so morose. I'll still hold off on dismissing her though.
 
I have faith in Brit, but I do agree, she plays some dull-*** characters. Include Arbitrage to the list you had compiled*. I saw her promoting I Origins on some late night talk show and can't wait to see it (even though the interview itself was boring). To be honest, I just dig her because she likes doing independent sci-fi flicks.

*Nevermind, just re-read your post. I really need to get some sleep.

How'd Gotham turn out tonight?
Didn't know the Blacklist started again? Even though I finished the season I got bored with it, think I finished it because I had a crush on the lead girl.


Eyes Wide Shut it On.
I know we talked about this movie a few weeks back and I praised the score but, I just realized I watch this movie every time it comes on. Every time. This was in 99 when I was a "big" fan of Tom Cruise.(don't dislike him now but he's just meh). I also attended one of these similar parties from the movie once when I was 19 and man, I was scared ******** I'm not going to lie. I remember seeing this shortly after and I think I grew up a little bit after seeing it and experiencing that party. Anyway, enough of that ramble.

I'd add this to my list of flicks I watch when they come on, for sure
