Chamberk posted:I always felt like the best finale is The Shield's. Not everyone gets what they deserve, but the tragic way everything falls out feels like the only way it could have ended. The Shield's ending is the one thing that gives me hope for Sons of Anarchy, though it probably doesn't matter considering how much more intentionally silly the latter is.

DivisionPost posted:Any man they hire to develop it is just going to be an insult as long as she and Kathryn Bigelow draw breath; at least with Bigelow you can claim that she wants to put her Point Break past behind her and focus on serious war dramas. The funny thing is Point Break is a pretty good showcase for her talent. Silly story but an extremely well-made film, as is Blue Steel.

I know a lot of people are stoked about Justified coming back but I'm equally pumped for The Americans starting back up in January.

VDay posted:The next TV show that AMC will eventually try to ruin once it gets popular: an adaptation of the Preacher comic book series. Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg to EP. Sucks HBO passed on it, but there's no way it'll be any better on AMC.

EvilTobaccoExec posted:I'll go ahead and admit its been a long time since I've seen the show, but I'm quite certain your perception of how much time was devoted to each plotline is very very skewed there. Also I didn't mind Bobbie Barret either, and a lot of what you said about her reads to me as a strong argument for the season instead of against. Besides Don's affair with her was at least mildly interesting compared to the last one with time-traveling Lindsay Weir.

I liked 12 Oz Mouse, and it'd be neat if the Williams Street people did another show which wasn't straight forward comedy.

The last line of the AV Club review nailed it: quote:The producers have managed to isolate everything that’s gross and charmless about European fantasy comics, as if they thought the beauty and kinetic energy of the artwork is what’s most disposable about them. Metal Hurlant Chronicles is the kind of thing that gives adolescent male power fantasies a bad name.

zoux posted:Ok we need to differentiate between production companies and showrunners here guys. The showrunner thing came from writers becoming producers because that's where the money is. Also you guys forgot Carsey-Werner and MTM, which basically created the concept of the showrunner.
