A topic for the discussion of Doctor Who, Arrow, and The Flash. Beware possible invasions of iZombie, Sleepy Hollow, or pretty much any other "genre" (read: sci fi, superhero, or fantasy) show that captures our fancy. Expect adult content and discussion of the Big Gay Sex.
Marvel superheroes are discussed over at the MCU thread.
Whitefont all unaired in the U.S. ep discussion, identifying it as such, and including the show and ep title in blackfont.
Blackfont is allowed after the show has aired on the east coast.
This is NOT a general TV discussion thread.
That was kind of my reaction to "Bram Stoker's Dracula"
The sad thing is, if not for the tacked-on love story between Mina and Dracula that ate the movie (damn you, Winona Ryder!) it would have been pretty true to the novel. It's the best depiction of the opening chapters in Dracula's castle that I've ever seen.
Despite Keanu Reeves being out-acted by Gary Oldman's shadow.

This is true.

This is also very, very true.
I'm really going to have to try to see this online, at least to see how long I can watch without wanting to look through my fingers.
Oh yeah, the first half was everything I wanted, which made the betrayal all the more bitter.
Is Marilyn Manson stoned on
Talking Dead
tonight, or is he normally this rambly and incoherent?
So Sleepy Hollow is pre-empted by some sports thing?
It occurred to me, having seen the Game of Bones porn parody mentioned, that Sleazy Hollow might not be far behind.
Stoned or regularly incoherent, Manson didn't do himself any favors. Chris Hardwick was as close to exasperated as I've seen him.

Apart from the "origin of Dracula" prologue. I do love a lot of the scene transitions in that movie, and the low-tech, in-camera effects approach they went for.
But, yeah, love story - meh. Keanu - double-meh.
Goodness, I've missed snarking about shows with y'all.
Dracula was bad. Pretty, but bad. Historically off the wall ... logically off the wall. Wish they'd just made up names similar but not identical to the ones in the original (or even half-decent versions of the original) and played it as a completely new version "inspired by" Dracula.
I saw "Bram Stoker's Dracula" and kind of liked it (also pretty); I was discussing it with a friend and she said it was soft-core porn ... she never did answer my question about what's wrong with soft-core porn.
And, in regard to Sleepy Hollow, one VERY IMPORTANT point has been addressed. Also - the man has spectacular posture.
