season 3 Episode 4 or 5? of Breaking Bad:
ok so everything is turning. Skyler with Ted, thought it was gonna go one way but I'm guessing she'll ask for money from Ted since he's been fluffing up the books? to leave Walt for good?
I can see Saul's importance to the show but without ANY knowledge except the fact that they made the spinoff Better Call Saul.... is it actually good? how many die hard fans transitioned from BB to BCS? is it written by Gilligan? usually it isn't and for a money grab for audiences.
I'm guessing Walt and Jesse go super savage mode only if Jesse stays clean. I like the black dude kingpin's character a lot. you get a lot from such limited airtime he received. especially when was trying to meet the contact at the restaurant and there were a few shots of this beta manager.
Hank on Heisenberg's trail (or trying to be since he just declined the el paso transfer) will be like in Dexter with the captain on Dex's tail in the first season and plus huh? cliche of friends close enemies closer type of thing

Man, I wish it had been shown on HBO so more people would have watched it. Words can't even express how blown away I was through the whole ride, and I don't have any friends to talk about it with

Michael Nyqvist, a Swedish actor who starred in the original “The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo” film series as a hard-driving investigative reporter and who often played villains in Hollywood movies, died June 27. He was 56.
The cause was lung cancer, said Mr. Nyqvist’s representative Jenny Tversky. No other details were released.
Mr. Nyqvist is perhaps best known worldwide for originating the role of Mikael Blomkvist in the Swedish “The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo” (2009) opposite Noomi Rapace as an anti-social computer hacker with whom he developed a complex relationship.
It was followed that same year by other films based on the late author Stieg Larsson’s blockbuster series, “The Girl Who Played with Fire” and “The Girl Who Kicked the Hornets’ Nest.” (Daniel Craig played the role in the 2011 English-language adaptation of “The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo.”)
In Hollywood, Mr. Nyqvist was Tom Cruise’s foe in “Mission: Impossible — Ghost Protocol” (2011) and the mob boss who terrorizes Keanu Reeves in “John Wick” (2014).
Mr. Nyqvist has a number of films on the slate that are yet to come out, including Terrence Malick’s World War II drama “Radegund” and Thomas Vinterberg’s “Kursk,” about the 2000 K-141 Kursk submarine disaster.
Rolf Ake Mikael Nyqvist was born in Stockholm on Nov. 8, 1960, to an Italian father and Swedish mother. He began life in an orphanage, was eventually adopted and began acting at 17 when he was an exchange student in Omaha. He studied ballet briefly before deciding on a theatrical career.
“Acting worked for me because I hate having my feet in the air,” he told Canada’s Globe and Mail in 2010. “In acting, I find the origin of a character. My feet are on the ground. I’m happy. After a while, I realized this drive to act is because, in real life, I didn’t know who I was.”
After working steadily for years, he attained wider attention for his roles in well-received Swedish films “Together” (2000), as an abusive husband, and the crowd-pleasing “As It Is in Heaven” (2004), as a renowned but burned-out conductor who returns to his home town and is lured into directing the church choir.
Survivors include his wife, set designer Catharina Ehrnrooth, and their children. A complete list of survivors was not immediately known.
In 2010, he wrote a memoir, “Just After Dreaming,” about his journey to find his biographical parents. “I knew my father was Italian,” he told the Globe and Mail. “I’m thinking someone like Marcello Mastroianni. Or Fellini. In real life what you find is that the great character you are looking for is just a nice man, a pharmacist in Florence.”

Last time i ask for your opinion on a film.
First it was Speed Racer and how "great" you said it was. You lied.
A few days ago i asked you for a good sci fi, you come back with Jupiter Ascending. You lied again.

I feel stupid for watching it so late myself, as I find myself in the same boat as you, not having anyone to get hyped and discuss it with.
It crossed all T's and dotted those I's.
You can tell they are only scratching the surface of what can be done here.
I loved the reveal of who Wednesday was, most just assumed he'd be that one guy, but nope.......he's that Old God.
Season 2 is going to be so lit man....now that they know they've been renewed, I expect a season full of total litness......
Wednesday is going to allow Ostera to give ol' Girl that life back watch.....
SHe's super conceited and self Centered, she's too Good to write off.
She was f'ing ol' PornStache/Leprechaun up wasn't she.
I can't lie, Leprechaun is a dope *** character too man......sheeeez, they are all cool in my book, they each get down in their own way.
Keep pluggin along. Years from now there will be college courses on Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul. No joke.
BCS is outstanding tho an even slower burn. But we are talking about perfection in writing, acting, building worlds and developing characters.
No show(s) EVER, put this much work in.
You're getting close bruh......

So I'm probably late but the movie The Mist has a tv show now on Spiketv or some channel cuz I'm watching the pilot now.
So far it's painfully predictable and cliche from the gay best friend whose parents hate him, cliche jock bullying, naive teenage girl, the cool star q.v. turned rapist, the obvious moment you know the rape is gonna go down, the dumb soldier that doesn't get the duck out of dodge and away from the mist instead of freaking out about it.
What is the new is the aloof father that wants his daughter to experience life and encourages her to disobey her moms There was a weird "our love" talk in a scene that did open the door to incest so that might be cliche too.
Queen Aslaug from Vikings is in it though

Watched Logan last night...this is EXACTLY the type of superhero movie I've been waiting for since I saw what Marvel did with Daredevil season 2 on Netflix (Punisher scenes.) It's got it all...but man, the brutality and graphic nature of the fights is what Wolverine should have been about since the jump. It sucks that this is it for Hugh Jackman, but he left the series on a high note after Logan. There was nothing about this film that bothered me. The acting was good, action was amazing, and the cinematography was excellent as well.
My standard for how movie superheroes/villains should be portrayed was held up to Batman Begins and TDK. I think the PG-13 rating really limited the potential for those two films, which were excellent in their own right. An R-rating would take things to a different level. A level like what we saw with Logan.
I'm going to rate this film SOLELY off of how I felt it stacked up to other superhero films of all-time. Yup...giving it a solid 8/8. Can't wait to see what's in store for the new generation of X-Men and where the franchise goes from here.
Batman Begins 7.98/8
TDK - 7.99/8
Deadpool - 7/8

So Batman Begins and TDK are the standard so you rate Logan higher?

Logan is Nebraska without the redemption at the end.. the ending is what knocks Logan down significantly for me.. whole movie Charles is literally begging Logan to get in the game, in the end dude sees kids that need leadership and dude pops an energy drink given to him by one of the kids
Nah

I loved Deadpool but the replay value is pretty limited. The jokes don't play well on repeat since you already know them, then all you're left with is the simple plot.
