Oh my god, don't even get me started on his Daredevil reviews.
SPOILER ALERT
Is anyone getting REALLY tired of Sava banging on the "this show needs more style and atmosphere" drum? Frankly, I don't understand what's so unatmospheric about it that he has to keep harping on for the length of a frickin' season. If you don't like the way the show looks, whatever, but if you're just going to keep…
There are ton of things that worked in this episode, and I know that last week I was still really cynical, but dammit if this show hasn't given me some cautious optimism. Last season I would have probably commented some kind of convoluted-but-enthusiastic mini-essay in response. I think this time, though, I'm just…
You're right, it is a slippery slope, and I do like the mostly standalone nature of each episode. That said, there is a world of difference between a passing reference Rick made one time and the actions of a character which an entire episode revolved around.
I would totally be fine with the follow-up being this Morty embracing his dark side more and more, I just don't think that the subplot should be dropped entirely. This definitely has too much potential for it to be one-and-done.
Personally, I have to disagree with the notion that they shouldn't follow-up on Evil Morty, but even if I didn't, no follow-up wouldn't really make sense considering the way they wrote his last appearance.
This is a character that is both smart and determined enough to kill and/or download the brains of hundreds (if…
"It’s just natural law that a person who’s been put upon for so long, and repressed so much anger, would eventually lash out"
… which would at least partially explain the genesis of Evil Morty. Speaking of which, when are we gonna get follow-up on that? I've been waiting to see more of him since that incredibly well…
The "this may get interesting" ship sailed a long time ago. "Gotham" just has this inexplicable ability to convince intelligent people that it's still on the horizon.
Oh, she's definitely a shitty character, but I'm gonna have to disagree with the notion that she's badly acted. I feel like Erin Richards is the Brett Dalton of this show, in that they're both doing the best that they can with shitty material. It's a case of their characters being (initially, in Ward's case) so badly…
I swear, this show is to its audience what the joker is to Harley: wildly inconsistent, condescending, full of bad jokes and somehow able to convince us that it is THIS close to treating us with respect, even though ALL the evidence SCREAMS the opposite. That said, this episode did manage to show enough improvement to…
I know "Short Term 12" was Brie Larson's movie, but why anyone would player-hate Nate, I will never understand.
Seriously, though, Malek is so great at conveying "oh dear god, I'm so in over my fucking head", and yet still coming off as ridiculously competent that it's amazing that he hasn't gotten bigger, better roles…
As far as I can understand it's when people with social lives go out and do stuff, so when networks put it on at that time, they're basically saying "well, noone's going to watch this anyway, so we might as well dump it here". I might be wrong, though, I don't live in North America.
A lot, probably. Though, if all of them could cook as well as Hannibal it would almost make living in the "Lambs" universe worth it. Also, "slaughter-of-the-week-psycho-fest" isn't a description that I would limit to the first season. Later seasons just gave us more… refined psychos.
Wow, okay, did not know that. I'm sorry to hear that. I wasn't talking about five-year-old's in general. I was talking about 5 year-old me, who was very scared of dogs for a very silly reason. Also, I think we might be getting away from the important part, you know, that Will has a brand-new brood and it's so damn…
"This is my Design"
I love that they decided to close out the episode with it too. Even the fucking CREDITS on this show are tasteful.
To be fair, Thomas Harris did have his arm twisted into writing "Hannibal Rising". Dino De Laurentiis wasn't done milking the cow that was the Hannibal franchise, and Harris didn't want his creation to be bastardized by somebody else, so he wrote Hannibal Rising as quickly as he could before Laurentiis made an…
Now that I think on it, it would be pretty ballsy to keep her alive. I mean, how many slaughter-off's end with everyone surviving?
The part that I was saying was exceptional wasn't just the fact that Hannibal started off the season with something that broke the mould, it was the fact that Bryan Fuller decided, after making us wait for months, to barely address the Red Dinner. It was his decision to keep us in anticipation that was ballsy, and…
Oh yeah, he wrote "Company Man", which is far and away the best episode of the series.
