Aphrodite posted:I wonder what they use for the brains if she has to be eating on screen all the time. Depends on the scene and how they're using it. Special Jell-O molds are popular, though when she was cleaning off the paint brush, it was fairly clearly a cake batter substance with food coloring. That's assuming she eats it, though. Most of the time, they'll have rubber or plastic brain goo if it's just sitting on a plater, like the microwave scene in this ep. It's all about the editing there.

In the first one with the noodles she was eating pieces of it. I bet you could use like pieces of lobster or something if you want to get fancy.

Making fun of the whole "vision quest" aspect of the show was enjoyable, and Rose McIver's acting in conjunction with the twisty mystery solidified my love for the show. Also nice to see movement kind of outside the Veronica Mars mold, since the pilot was plotting a very similar story structure to VM. I forgot how dark and prickly Veronica Mars could be, and while this show is hitting a lot of the same keys, I'm appreciating iZombie's much more zany and optimistic attitude. It's just fun stuff. EDIT: Not to swerve away from the "it's just good fun!" stuff, but I'm also appreciating the show as an HIV metaphor that isn't a total downer/medical drama. Minus the superpowers, of course.

I've worked with pretentious artists before, so the whole thing with the sketch artist had me in stitches.

I liked the reveal that there are a bunch more zombies running around. Feels like a suitably interesting larger arc for the series to build on.

Aphrodite posted:I wonder what they use for the brains if she has to be eating on screen all the time. from the Anders interview David Anders posted:I don't know what actual brains would taste like. Our brains taste like gelatinous goo. The prop department felt like they nailed it as far as consistency and aesthetics. Visually, it looks great, but for the taste, not so much. I get to do my fair share of brain eating, but Rose does the lion's share.

I appreciate when they get texture right in media. I get that sometimes a department wants things to appear some way to be shocking or for the ease of the scene (or the lazy prop designer). In any case, the brain's wobbly-ness seems spot on. Helps my gross anatomy nerd to get proper respect.

And apparently that zombification is indeed a sexually transmitted disease. Did I miss something though, or were there no more zombies revealed in this episode than the lady that got turned?

I feel like it was implied that zombie guy has been making zombies all over the city for whatever reason, probably for some evil take over or something. You'd think working in the morgue suddenly seeing bodies show up with their brains missing would be a huge red flag though, unless the guy is taking the corpses out of the city and burying them deep.

I've been really enjoying it. Have they said how they do the whole zombie look? Is it make up or post processing and did she have to dye her hair white?

I like it so far. I dig the lead, and the doctor from the morgue is neat, I hope they give him some kind of odd back story. Does anybody know what kind of other 'beings' are in the show's universe?

And odder backstory than "Fired from the CDC because they didn't believe the zombie apocalypse was a credible threat"?

Yeah, they've pretty much confirmed it's already gotten as supernatural as it's ever going to get. Zombies are it for the show.

As well as all the other shows already mentioned, is anyone else getting a Dollhouse vibe from this?

You'd think working in the morgue suddenly seeing bodies show up with their brains missing would be a huge red flag though, unless the guy is taking the corpses out of the city and burying them deep. He is a zombie, and zombies aren't exactly well defined so far. And, well zombies have been known to just chow down on whoever is nearby. It seems plausible that he just keeps on munching on corpses even after eating their brains to dispose of the evidence after killing someone. After all, once you set aside your moral inhibitions against cannibalism and start munching on brains, might as well go whole hog and eat the whole body and destroy the evidence. So it would make sense that those victims might end up as missing persons, but they're not showing up at the morgue. thrakkorzog fucked around with this message at 10:02 on Mar 27, 2015 |

Dollhouse improved dramatically after the first half season, but obviously I meant the whole theme of absorbing skills and personality traits of other people. Now I can't help but reminisce and think how much better that show would've been with an actress that was good like this one is at its core.

Hilariously this show could be said to be a mix of two Eliza Dushku shows: Dollhouse and Tru Calling. A medical examiner solves the murders of dead people while picking up new skills and personalities each week.

It would still have been a show about mentally handicapped people being turned into sex slaves by a modern Mengele. I will admit there was one good episode of Dollhouse - the one where a woman investigated her own murder - but the rest of it was despicable poo poo and the best cast in the world wouldn't have helped it.

Deadpool posted:This is the correct answer to anyone comparing this to shows with Eliza Dushku in them. Hey, Buffy wasn't bad! And Thomas himself said this show was designed to lean more Buffy than Veronica Mars. Although how that gels with them stating zombies are pretty much it in terms of the supernatural coming out and Anders calling a zom-com-rom-dram, I have no idea.

I loved Dollhouse once it got better, but only in spite of Dushku
