Shageletic posted:hey does anyone have a good example of a comedy that has someone saying something ridiculous offscreen as the character onscreen tries to pretend its not happening. Feels like its a gag that's been done a bit, and I'm trying to remember one, but the only one I can remember is the one in the IT crowd when someone founds out someone is transgender while someone else is giving a press conference, and that is probably one of the worst scenes imaginable.

Best part is that Yoko Kanno is doing original music for the show, so worst case scenario we get a cool soundtrack out of it.

Open Source Idiom posted:Is she doing the entire original score, or just one or two tracks, or is the show just using her score from the original show? https://twitter.com/NetflixGeeked/status/1402301557094244352?s=20 It was enough to have Wikipedia list her as composer and say that she's scoring the series. So... probably all new stuff?

I’m not really hung up on aspect ratio for Seinfeld. It makes it feel a little claustrophobic, but it’s not like an action or sci-fi drama that’s all about a director’s precise framing. I think I’d prefer it looking high-resolution and cropped than blurry SD and 4:3.

Mu Zeta posted:Three episodes into Foundation and it just feels so cold and sterile. A bunch of characters even do the stilted dialogue common to cheap 90s scifi. The show looks super expensive even more than Star Trek Discovery. But I"m about to quit another Jared Harris show. He did another show called The Beast Must Die this year and it stunk.

swickles posted:Is Raised by Wolves any good? Just saw the trailer for it while queuing up Dune and it looks like it would be up my alley. If you're okay with some blandness in the middle and can power through, it's still worth it to see such a unique show. The opening credit sequence is absolutely top-notch, too, never skipped it.

cant cook creole bream posted:What episode was that? I don't remember anything like that. I recently rewatched the whole series and yeah, some episodes just do not hold up at all. They're more in seasons 3 & 4, though (and the return finale episode was dire upon rewatch, just a long screed on cancel culture and an odd attack on little people and the homeless). A lot of the bad stuff boils down to Ricky Gervais-style "why can't I be offensive?????" humor. Some plots make Roy a bit too rude/mean and seem out of place. Also, there's an episode where you're supposed to laugh at Roy because he got lightly sexually assaulted during a massage and it's "funny" because he's a guy. Also, you really spot how about 1/2 of the show rips plots from Seinfeld practically word for word. Somehow, Seinfeld handled a lot of the same topics with more grace. Thankfully, I think my perfect boy Moss survives untainted throughout the whole show. JazzFlight fucked around with this message at 15:49 on Oct 25, 2021 |

Chairman Capone posted:The IT Crowd is a show I loved back in 2009, but I probably haven't watched it since the fourth season came out and I feel like if I went back and rewatched it now, it would just tarnish my memories. Not to mention, I feel like most of the best people in it went on to do better things anyway. Katherine Parkinson is the only one I can't remember seeing in anything since, outside an episode of Sherlock. quote:April: I used to be a man, Douglas. I used to be a man. I wish there was an easier way of saying that, but believe me, there's not. I really don't know how the writer made such an empathetic character in April, showed how Douglas really did love her, and then played the whole thing as a gross joke. It even fit Douglas to have a more fluid sexuality anyway based on earlier episodes. Like how he loved how free Roy was when wearing lipstick and then wore it himself at a concert later. I just don't get it. JazzFlight fucked around with this message at 21:48 on Oct 25, 2021 |

navyjack posted:Thanks to everyone who provided reccs for me and boomer-mom. We bounced off Only Murders in the Building, but are now 8 eps into The Expanse. She loves UN Grandma and Amos. Season 3 could have been a fine stopping point storywise, anyhow. That’s kind of how it is in my head right now.

MiddleOne posted:Just wanted to pipe in that I feel that the end confrontation of ep 7 of Arcane justifies the project in its entirety. What a way to use animation, storytelling and fan-service to cap-end an episode, holy poo poo: I’m still not very impressed by the story or dialogue (it’s very safe and unoriginal), but the facial animation, direction, music, and action scenes are top-notch.

Aces High posted:Saw that part 2 of Masters of the Universe hit Netflix and all I can say is all the people bitching and moaning about part 1 specifically about Prince Adam dying can be prepared to eat some humble pie Would it appeal to people who have never seen the original series and have no connection to any of these characters or is it more of a "you get a lot more out of it by having seen all of the original show." I never watched the cartoon as a kid, for instance.
