Escapee.. Posted August 18, 2015 Posted August 18, 2015 Made the mistake and googled secrets and lies, no need to watch the final two episodes now
FrankG Posted August 23, 2015 Author Posted August 23, 2015 Pilot for Lucifer has me hooked, am hoping the Concerned Moms of America don't get their way and have the show cancelled because the devil is misrepresented as being too nice. Its your responsibility to raise your kids so leave my TV shows alone!! Mr Robot is just brilliant.
popcorn_skollie Posted August 23, 2015 Posted August 23, 2015 on episode 6 of Mr Robot. Its frustratingly good. There's something about the way the protagonist narrates the series.Reminds me of the way JD Salinger writes.He is not telling a story to the audience. He is speaking to himself. An extraordinarily intelligent, socially anxious, borderline schizophrenic, manically depressed, drug addict struggling to navigate his moral compass as he tries to change the world behind the persona of someone who just wants to fit in. I only fear that a plot premise as compelling as this one might hold the writers back.It can only continue to be this gripping if the world really does sink into anarchy because of his actions. http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/sites/default/files/imagecache/NFE_portrait/2015/04/mr_robot_fuck_society.jpgSPOILER ALERT So I intentionally stayed away from this thread and the like to avoid spoilers. I only just caught up on the last 3 episodes in a row and as you can imagine. I did myself a HUGE favour. It was like watching Fight club, Usual Suspects or 6th Sense for the first time. You'd think that we've become accustomed to that old plot twist by now. Like we'd see it coming a mile away. Subconsciously brushing off any suspicion like nah, the writers won't do that again. But they did. And in doing so 'again' they probably deserve greater praise for fooling us with an old bag of tricks. Maybe a week or so ago I changed my profile signature to the lyrics of Pixies' Where is my mind. Probably a day or 2 before episode 9 aired. (I checked) Purely co-incidental. I was playing some old music a few days back and the song just...struck a nerve. Imagine for a moment my PROFOUND appreciation then when the last episode ended with this https://youtu.be/4NZdggNUvq0

Imagine for a moment my PROFOUND appreciation then when the last episode ended with this ja..i mentioned in the song thread that I dont like that song (purely because of its annoying association with the pixies - i.e. they have MUCH better songs than that..but that piano version made me see it in a slightly different light..which is always good
Stretch Posted August 24, 2015 Posted August 24, 2015 my wife started watching GOT last night because she has been reading the ooks...watching S01E01 was like a time warp.....but sooo much happened in that first episode
popcorn_skollie Posted August 24, 2015 Posted August 24, 2015 ja..i mentioned in the song thread that I dont like that song (purely because of its annoying association with the pixies - i.e. they have MUCH better songs than that..but that piano version made me see it in a slightly different light..which is always goodI can echo that sentiment for many bands. It's as if they become less appealing after a chart topper.
Guest notmyname Posted August 25, 2015 Posted August 25, 2015 Watched the first three episodes of "The Lizzie Borden chronicles". I'm quite enjoying it thus far and the bonus.... Christina Ricci is dreamy man.

In regards to The Walking Dead, it's... Just what we need in our lives, another zombie show... (I'm sure you can hear the sarcasm just dipping from those words... )
