Does Dream On hold up though? I havent seen it in literally decades at this point.
Does Dream On hold up though? I havent seen it in literally decades at this point.
One of my people I see.
It is a top 10 drama for me of all time. I dont know how I would rank my own top 10, but for HBO, The Wire, Rome, Band of Brothers....then i have to put some thought into it. I like westworld far more than anyone else it seems. I find Sopranos and GoT insanely overated, especially GoT (even factoring out the last…
See my comments above. Might be the single best limited series i have seen. Cherynoble was too low (I liked Watchmen a lot, but those two should be swapped). I just kept reading but couldnt take it seriously.
Agreed, though Harley Quinn is fantastic in its own right and should be on this list if it was an HBO and not Max.
In a on demand era, Rome would have been huge...it just came out a bit too early for that. Like on demand became a big deal for HBO right around that time, so first season ratings were poor (and that show was ridiculously expensive at the time...and that is considering it was a joint production with the BBC) but then…
If you watched the wire and thought it painted cops as good guys, or was out to paint anyone as good or bad with any type of broad strokes then you have the intellectual depth of a thimble. It showed people and the situation as they were, the issues with race, class, where one grew up, the corruption in the system,…
I dont care. Im a white anglo christian (well by upbringing anyway) male. Fuck white supermacists. If fucking aliens showed up, and the other side was nazis, and the aliens were eating people...id still give them the benefit of the doubt. Side with nazis, fuck off. Side with the klan, get fucked. Call for racial…
Yeah, id say it should be in the top 50, and you could probably put one of its best seasons in a top 10 best seasons of hbo shows list, but that show has always been ridiculously over rated (and I like the first 5 seasons).
...no. Not even close. Sopranos had some great performances, but it also had dangling threads, some piss poor or non existent character development for multiple characters. That show is largely carried on the strength of Tony, Melfi, and Carmella. The wire has career performances from just....everybody.
No. Band of Brothers being 49 and not in the top 10 is insane.
Yeah....when I saw Band of Brothers was at 49 I almost just stopped reading. Band of Brothers is a top 10 show, flat out. I feel like limited series (1 season) should be excluded, but if you are including them, Band of Brothers top 10. Further, Rome isnt on here at all. I dont take this list seriously.
Asylum is still my favorite. I think City is over rated, still a great game...but despite the ridiculous batman world...the idea that a major city would put walls up around several miles, unleash all of its insane criminals, and violent criminals, and just say we tried...and no one else would object....the State…
I liked the arkham games, but think Spiderman did combat better, probably because of the nature of spiderman being mobile and airborn. The riddler trophies in Knight were just obnoxious, as was the batmobile. The fact that we never got serious story dlc for those games for each bat family member was disappointing. …
I dont think fatalities should be the bar. Plenty of people get hurt in car accidents, which in the US is a huge problem seeing as how we dont have universal healthcare. Do you know what percentage of all law suits would vanish if we had universal healthcare? I mean there are literally lawyers who do nothing but no…
The us is going to have a labor shortage for a decade. Boomers are retiring, even if they delay it, it doesnt matter, the youngest are 58, the oldest are 77. The majority of them have already passed retirement age. For many, life will sort out whether they can work or not. Gen Z is coming out of college now (the…
.....the average driver is a fucking idiot. Our driving tests are ridiculously easy. I see people regularly not indicating. Not following speeding laws. Not providing adequate space on highways at speeds in excess of 70 mph. The majority of people dont even take their cars for regular maintenance meaning plenty…
I am in one of the few districts in NJ that might be considered a swing district. Here we have a centrist dem, running against the son of a former centrist republican gov who was well liked during the 80s, and whose family are long time powers in the state (we have a state university named after them...not our best…
I dont know his district, but i just generally assume this wont hurt him. He was either in a Dem district and they put up the most insane person ever, or he is in a republican district and the same applies. In a swing district they will put up someone like this, they just will deny everything and the GOP will…
Kemp for govenor, record Dem turnout during a pandemic needed to get the state to barely swing left? MGT gonig to get reelected by a huge margin? Walker still running neck and neck....i mean that guy makes Trump look eloquent and lucid....I have no faith in Southern States. Everything they said they cared about is…
