And I'm back for sporadically scheduled Hannibal thoughts with @Dr. Jacoby! Eventually we'll probably settle into the usual Monday/Wednesday/Friday routine once the mafia game I'm running and he's playing ends. Today is Season 1 Episode 3, Potage. Feel free to join in.

I haven't really noticed the score, so I'll have to pay attention to it in the future. I like theatricality and things that are a bit bombastic so the score is fine, it just doesn't seem…memorable? Which is fine. Farscape's score isn't really memorable and yet you can tell when it sounds off like in the miniseries so…

I don't know, mannn. We'll see how I feel about Freddie in the future, but I just don't get why she isn't dead. She's the reason he was caught and while his mind is probably compromised in some manner, I just think that's potentially significant in its unspokeness. You have more understanding in this regard, but I…

I came to this review because I needed to see what others thoughts were on the scene between Caroline and Klaus. It was seriously great. But it's funny, because while Klaus says they're above human, all the things he mentions as "True Beauty" are things like art and music which were created by humans trying to capture…

This is going to be much harder to talk about than the pilot and I honestly don’t know where to start. The conversation about God at the end of the episode reinforces the symbolism I noticed, but it’s taken on an almost dualistic role in that I’m not 100% sure if Hannibal views himself as God or both he and Will as…

After missing Wednesday, @Dr. Jacoby and I are back for episode 2 of Hannibal, "Amuse-Bouche".

Yeah, I definitely picked up on the age factor from your posts. Just you bringing it up in the past shows it's something you think about and mix that with family…and I totally get it. I like guys who are older than me, too, so when the last person I was seeing was only 5 and a half years older, she was happy. I've…

I think I'm going to email the response I wrote to you. It was getting really personal, and I might expand on that a bit in a way I wouldn't here.

And at the end, asleep in the chair, holding Abigail’s hand, he looks so tired and human that one forgets entirely that he is the reason she ended up there.

Almost none. I said I was cinema deficient, and I'm not kidding. I've seen a lot of TV and when I was younger read a lot of books, but I missed out on a lot of classics. I had this weird thing as a kid where I knew I wanted to work in entertainment and didn't want to be influenced by what everyone else had been…

Yeah, hopefully we'll be caught up by Season 3. I can already tell why people enjoy the show so much, but I hear it gets a lot better a few episodes in. It's weird not to marathon it, but this way should be fun.

“That was by design.”

And we're back! Today @Dr. Jacoby and I will be starting Hannibal with the pilot. Feel free to join in, but please keep spoilers to a minimum as I've somehow managed to avoid most. If you want to comment on spoilers, please use rot13.com to cipher them.

I was disappointed with Klaus when I saw him with his wig in the flashbacks. Present day Klaus was a lot better for me. He doesn't look all that threatening, just mischievous, which I think works great for what Alaric did when being possessed by him. And Elijah was fine. He bugged me at first, though his head chopping…

Ooooh, and I just finished episode 19. It ended with the actual Klais stepping out of his luggage. Elijah is back and spewing exposition. Jenna just found out about everything.

Interesting. That's good to hear though I'm at a serious loss when it comes to film. I am not cultured in the least, as much as my best friend is always trying to get me to watch films she knows I'll love. One day I'll see the the Before Sunset movies.

Also, I looooove symbolism, but I can be pretty dense the first time around. We'll see how things unfold, but I'm pretty excited about how blind I am for it.

Right! I forgot you were getting that. That's awesome, though! Have you watched any episodes yet? I'm curious about what you think of the color restoration, since it looks very different from the comparisons I've seen.

So any news on if your brother or bf wanna play? If not, we'll need one more person and I'll probably start things up on Saturday. If you need the link to the QT again it's:

Now it's Christmas! Or Xmas! You use both and I know you're 100% about political correct things so I don't want to offend you… I'm kind of drunk.
