Closed Film and TV threads

[NAFDA] "There will be an occasional happy, so that it might be crushed under the boot of the writer." From Zorro to Angel (including Wonderfalls and The Inside), this is where Buffistas come to anoint themselves in the bloodbath.

Thrive to spite them

Oh, I did really like Rebecca talking her way through the vic's house. I thought it would feel forced, but it was very natural.

Mostly I don't like Peter Coyote's character and I'm meh about him as an actor so that's kind of sucking some of energy out of the show for me.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

I'm really liking Paul

Per my usual gift, I think he needs to shut up.

Damn you!!

Also, I didn't like the "Got it backwards" line that much -- it's a great line -- but I have such a strong dislike for Web that my initial reaction was "omigod what an arrogant prick -- aren't there rules against that?"

Well, he's clearly above the rules if he picks and drops his cases when he can. I think my initial reaction was "That's funny and she's safe, whew."

So Adam and Katie twist a little bit

I guess I'm just so happy to see them in a show, I want it to be all. about. them. Heh. I can wait.

"You see? THAT's what they want. Love, and a bit with a dog."

See, I love an interesting "bad" guy. (It's the only reason I hang on to watching Deadwood). I want to know more.

my initial reaction was "omigod what an arrogant prick -- aren't there rules against that?"

It wasn't a laugh out loud line for me but I loved it. For me, it was "Awesome, he's an arrogant prick because there are totally rules against that!"

I really liked all those flashes with her dialogue coming out of other women's mouths and shit. That was way cool. I also really liked the way she worked her way to the subway revelation, how she kind of subtly shifted back and forth between first and second person (I think subconsciously, for her). Both those scenes show well that she really does get inside the heads of the victims...and as tiggy suggests, because she was one herself.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.

That was a very Mal Reynolds moment.

Never fall in love with somebody you actually love.

The front page of TI.org has a poll on the first episode now.

Edit: and it's getting about 30 visits a minute from Yahoo, the only search engine which has indexed the site so far. Looks like the show made an impact.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

That was a very Mal Reynolds moment.

Yes it was, but Mal Reynolds is not sworn to uphold the law.

For me, it was an "Oh, no he didn't... oh, woah. He so did," line.
