I wasn't just talking about apples, bro....
(too far?)
It felt like most of the trailer was just from the first act, and the rest...
Agreed.Anchorman 2 was quite possibly the worst movie I have ever seen in my life. I want those 2 hours back. Is it possible for me to sue Ron Burgundy?

Elementary Thought I was the only one consistently watching it. I'd put it up against Sherlock as far as quality goes. The reveal that Irene Adler was Moriarity were some of the best eps on tv period.Nevermind that I think Lucy Liu is one of the most beautiful women on the planet....
I know the show can be very network TV (in that mysteries are solved within a hour), but I've been watching CBS's Elementary from jump. The season finale was great. It was well written & great performances from Johnny Lee Miller, Liu, & Rhys Ifans... I like how they weave Sherlock being an ex addict & how he copes with his addiction...
I was engaged but it didn't make me like most in here. Like I said before felt like a SVU episode with all of it's twists taken a bit more seriouslyI didn't think Prisoners was a great movie as people are saying. Was just a good movie to watch that kept my attention.
Yea I thought I was the only one. Maybe I'm a bad guy but I just didn't care that much about the little girls being lost. Didn't know that much about them.
Ripoffs try to act as if the work is original and their own. Homages in no way try to steal and simply give a nod to the classic that came before it.Is there really a difference?

I think even this trailer doesn't sell the premise of the film well enough but it's so grand and has a serious intrigue factor. I think it's going to be very thought provoking and another HR for Nolan.
I hope

LinkYeah, I think it definitely changed. There's a lot of elements that really, like I said, made it easy for me. And like the costume and the hair and the makeup and the props and the sets, and then working out and getting in good shape, like, I would just like get out of hair and makeup and have my costume on and look at myself in the mirror and I would just not even see myself staring back. I would see like Peter Quill or like this kind of Star-Lord character (laughs). I was like "this is ******* cool, man. (laughter) So yeah, that... It's a third of what I do, I think as an actor, is just what I look like, you know? I'm a prop. And I talk and I listen and I feel things and I have a certain rhythm to my spirit, all of which, all of those things I can manipulate, but the way I look is also something you can manipulate, but it probably takes a third of the performance, you know. That's why there are people that are just like completely dull and have like nothing going on the inside, but when you look at 'em, they look look compelling. There's like great symmetry or something, and you're kind of captivated by them, even though on the inside there's nothing going on! (laughter) Know what I mean? There are people like that, and as long as they sound good, and can link sentences together without stumbling ...But yeah, the physical transformation is a big part of it, like, you know, it's my vehicle. It's my body that I'm inside of, and it can't not affect the way that people perceive you and the way that you perceive yourself. Yeah.

If I can sum up Godzilla in five words.
King of the ******* monsters.

Nothing wrong with episodic tv shows when they have multiple plots and story lines that carry over the entire season. The whack ones usually act like every new ep is the start of the season which puts a strain on there being continuity. Elementary does it well.
I like their take on things. I wasn't at first cool with them making Mycroft the dumb one when he's suppose to be smarter than Sherlock but it worked and it's clear Rhy isn't going to be a regular so they wrapped up his story until he returns nicely. What's always been weird to me is Joan being attracted to him. I saw no signs of that coming at all. Soit still seems out of place..
They both have their strengths.I think Episodic > Serial, mostly because of writing.
Every episode has to have different plots, with beginning middles and ends. Then you add a continual plot throughout the series (usually a relationship).
In a Serial show you have to carry the same plots throughout the series, which almost always become character studies and have to get increasingly bigger, otherwise the show would grow stale.
Your thoughts.
Yeah I can make sense of Joan's attraction to Mycroft if I put a whole lot of thought in to it but I was just saying from a writing standpoint I saw no signs of it, nothing hinted at it. Even when Sherlock deduced they smashed I was like what the ****? I rewatched the ep thinking I missed something.Elementary Thought I was the only one consistently watching it.

I think part of Watson's attraction to Mycroft is that he's a version of Holmes only a little more human if you will. He posses what Sherlock is incapable of, warmth & intimacy.
The season 2 finale might’ve been my favorite episode of the series. There were so many well written & well-acted scenes that I really enjoyed.
It was really heartfelt in a very reserved "British" way in which Sherlock vowed to fix things for Mycroft once he learned of his sacrifice & his pledge to apologize at the appropriate time (in keeping with AA/NA traditions).
I loved how Watson explained why she had to leave the house & seek a place of her own by using the gravity & orbits analogy. & then the way she had all those people on webcam when old MI6 dude threated to press his thumbs in her eye socket if she didn’t tell him the where abouts of Mycroft.
Towards the end, when Mycroft cut off Sherlock's insults with a hug while declaring his fraternal love for his brother had me like .
I like the direction the show is headed in. I think Sherlock is taking the MI6 role in an effort to free his brother from the threat from that French terrorist organization…
