Except the narrative "whores are all victims who need to be saved from their plight and are incapable of their own agency" is in and of itself misogynistic and wrong. In several instances we have seen examples of how men treat WOMEN poorly. Not just whores. Even noble women don't have that much power unless they are

I'm glad to hear that Fuller has a real plan for Hannibal being arrested and incarcerated and they're not going to just drag this out unnecessarily. Because at some point people get caught.

Although I find that he's a little TOO sedate at times, in a way where if I ever met him I might find him slightly creepy. When I read the books I always imagined Lecter as being more charming and friendly. He was kind of over the top and urbane in the books but in a way that got people to feel like he was someone

I am really into Mads Mikkelsen as Hannibal Lecter. I wasn't so sure at first but now I don't even know why. I liked him in Valhalla Rising and thought he was pretty interesting in Casino Royale. I do find his accent a bit of a struggle at times but I think I'm getting used to it. Props to the producers though for

Yes well obviously women should be put up to a higher stricter standard of behavior because it's more fun to analyze and then arbitrarily dislike their every move. Or whatever.

My theory is that people in general seem to dislike someone who appears to try too hard. Even if they're a perfectly nice person with good intentions, for some reason that neurotic desire to break every bone in your body trying at something can be annoying. Especially when it has to do with the arts. For some reason

So I guess with Refn his movies are either really quiet or the characters don't stop talking. Right? Or maybe Bronson was just a fluke.

I don't think I liked that Barristan Selmy's identity was revealed right away, especially since Strong Belwas was no where in sight.

My friends and I watched this as a drinking game.

In tangential Neil Gaiman news, BBC's Radio 4 is doing an adaptation of Neverwhere featuring James MacAvoy, Natalie Dormer, Benedict Cumberbatch, Anthony Head, and Christopher Lee. Which sounds neat, until you realize it'll all be on the radio. I mean. Talk about missed opportunities. I'm assuming it was an issue of

Yeah I think I would've found the boardroom fiasco more plausible if we'd gotten more of a chance to see how she'd won over their hearts and minds. It's not like it's impossible that she could've undermined May enough to have the board vote her out and vote Richard in. It's just we don't see any of it so it feels out

It would've been comedy gold. Him being bazaar. Her doing her weird cheerful thinly veiled evil thing. Then they both slap Richard. Because that will never not be funny.

I don't agree about Holly. Sure she doesn't get to show much inkling of kindness but she definitely has several shades of villiany. She's like a machine with the focus she has on what she wants and she goes for it without any remorse or guilt. She geniunely thinks that what she's doing is partly FOR Richard, that

Remember that time she beat that guy with a hammer? Man I hope something like that happens again. Wacky hijinks and such.

This is going to be like that time Chuck made 5 million finales because they kept being told this was the last episode. For realzies.

"That's not a good position for prison, darling."

Funny story. NBC towed my car just to film on the block I was parked on for this stupid show. So I'm not sad that "Do No Harm" tanked.

I kind of fell in love with Paul Gross from watching this show. His acting, his voice, his entire delivery, it was just so hypnotic. I wanted him to just recite Shakespeare until the end of time.

Oh…… nevermind then. Although… I wonder what living in 2167 is like. Spinoff!

I liked it too. But at the same time I hated it. I'm one of those annoying people who just wants everything to work out perfectly.
