Wellick's been my favorite television show antagonist this year. I would say his character is far-fetched but my brother worked for a hedge fund and his superiors were straight up lizard people in the same vein. Interesting aside (for me, at least): E(vil)-Corp's billing department is in the same area I grew up in and County Line Rd. is actually far out in the boonies. The zip code puts it right in the middle of Topeka instead. There's no Stoneycroft but it's weird seeing something semi-familiar in a show when you're from a smallish city. wukkar posted:Legit felt sad for Bill . I know. That poor dude seemed so unsure and frightened by Elliot.

steakmancer posted:I'm 100% sure this was part of Wellick's keikaku actually, a true politico at work * Translator's note: keikaku means plan. But seriously, this entire season thus far has been amazing. I hope it can keep this momentum up because it might just be the best show of 2015.

This show is so good and I hope it can continue being this good in the next season. I also can't believe I didn't recognize B.D. Wong until the conversation was almost over.

This show's excellent and since the Darlene reveal, I can't help but kick myself at not noticing how her actress has features similar to Rami Malek beforehand.

EL BROMANCE posted:I liked the whole 'Fiona is in the IRA' aspect of Burn Notice. It's like having a show in 2030 where the female lead is an active member of ISIS and it's no big deal. I randomly watched an episode of Burn Notice with my mom (she was a big fan) and it was the one where Michael convinced some gang members that he was the devil. That was enough to sell me then and there.

It's still bonkers to me that a show with under-the-clothes masturbation and a few fucks per episode is being shown on the network that gave us Royal Pains. I hope this proves to other cable networks that you can do stuff like this without succumbing to the fear of

BrianWilly posted:I seem to recall him speaking Cantonese on SVU, but I myself don't know if he did that very well or not (I only speak Mandarin). It wasn't him actually speaking Cantonese in SVU, just someone ADR'd in. I think he's not a speaker of either dialect as evident by how halted and stilted his dialogue was.

Snak posted:Hahahaha Darlene is Elliot's sister. That's amazing. The best part about the Darlene reveal is that (spoilers for S1, I guess)afterwards, I couldn't help but notice that Chaikin and Malek have similar facial features, which is some good casting on top of the acting ability.

CeeJee posted:"You aged very well" is quite appropriate for Sandrine Holt who does not look that older since making Rapa Nui when Carly Chaikin was 4 years old. Criminy, I had no idea her actress is in her 40s. I kinda balked at the idea of her being a lawyer when Darlene was just 4 years old, too. That's some graceful-as-gently caress aging because I thought she was around my age (early 30s) at best.

Ersatz posted:Yeah. My Mandarin is pretty crap, but my wife's from Beijing so I have good handle on what it should sound like and... that's not it. I really like the actor otherwise. I think B.D. Wong doesn't speak Mandarin because the couple of times they had his character speak it in Law and Order SVU, it was another actor ADR'd in. My friend said it sounds like he learned it phonetically.

Snak posted:Instead of watching anime, everyone should read Pattern Recognition by William Gibson. I've read all of Gibson's novels. Now only anime can fill the void. buckets of buckets posted:How the h*ck do you even direct an anime? 'hey big tits 12 year old, I want u to put more feeling into it when you say nekoooo. Really elongate those vowels'''' Realtalk: Directors of animated programs have to work with the writers and storyboarders fairly closely on top of working with the animation director and sound producers. It's a bonkers amount of work to produce a live action thing but animation is even crazier.

I still want a miniseries based on the Sprawl Trilogy on HBO or one of the streaming services. e: Huh.
