I’m on second episode. I’m not saying its a Steven king remake or a copy, but they are at least channeling the same arc types. they also have a prefect copy of nurse ratchet. not from king but she adds a creepy flavor.

One of John Candy’s best and that’s saying a lot. If you haven’t seen this wonderfully funny gem, make sure you do and get some tissue to mop up tears and spit from all the hee hawing. No one could make us laugh like Candy. What a guy.

It’s not terrible. They went back to what worked. No raves in caves to tribal music to be seen. There were a few moments where the meta-humor got so strong I lost it giggling. This movie was made with a strong sense of irony that can be felt and appreciated. Having said that, you already saw the 1st one, nothing will ever be as good, not even if you watch the first one again. It’s the old adage about bottled lightning. Short of amnesia due to a head injury, it can only go downhill after that first one—but it definitely came back up from the 2nd and 3rd.

good comedians can make you laugh. great comedians can make you think. the goats can make you do both and cry all at the same time. the “punch line” of Diaphony made me cry.

i saw this at the theater when it came out. i was tagging along with 4 friends and i hadn’t even seen a trailer for it. i went in completely blind and was totally blown away. griped the armrests all the way threw. all the critics hated it and everyone loved it. its not just a good movie, it was a moment in American movie history…..lol

i intentionally avoided this because i was certain it would be a disappointment. i was wrong. oh, it was far from prefect. surprisingly. i was on the edge of my seat almost all the way threw it. like i said i avoided this for a long time. i finally realized zhan mclernan was in this and oh boy he didn’t disappoint. lol. 8/10

I’ve seen this serval times now. its a great psychological thriller. a slow burn on the edge of your seat all the way threw that is only punctuated by “ouch cringe” moments and an ending that leaves you numb. 8.5/10

it was extra painful to watch because i really wanted it to be good.not one genuine laugh in the entire film either. just a “hmmm ok i see what they did there that was amusing” here and there. im sooo sorry but make no mistake about it this was a failure.:-( sorry jon we still love you. :-)

something just occurred to me. Gus would have never let Walt live. the last time there was a chemist that was going to replace Walt, Walt had him killed. If for no other reason, Gus would have killed Walt to keep Pinkman alive. Gus would have sold it to Pinkman after he did it saying he did it to keep him safe from Walt.that being said, i still say its near flawless writing. this thing is a masterpiece. after all these years it still gives me chills re-watching it.

If warp 4.5 does Neptune and back in 6 min (36 das), and Neptune is about 4.4 Tm from Earth.
Warp 4.5 = 24 Gm/s
Later John says that it’s easy to get jumpy when traveling at 30 000 000 km/s = 30 Gm/s
Manhunter (1986)
i remember this when it came out and compared Brian cox Lecter with Anthony Hopkins. i fucking love Anthony Hopkins BUT, i always had a problem with the version of Lecter that he played. i’m not saying that he did a bad job i think it was amazing but the near supernatural villainy of his Lector i found to be slightly over the top. Brian Coxes version was truly chilling because he played him to be an insane human not a super human caricature. Brian Coxes version was pitch perfect.his super power was his IQ, his weakness was that he was insane. it was very similar to Madds Miklesons version in the tv adaptation. in Hopkins version, insanity seemed to be almost a super power.

no spoilers here. when this series was announced i cringed because of all the movies that have been ruined by trying to adapt them to tv series. my fears were canceled out fast when this came out. when second season was announced i had similar fears.this thing defys most other shows and just keeps getting better.i hope taika and jemaine do more togather. they are such a great creative pair.
