The atmosphere reminded me a lot of 70s detective series like Harry O, so in that respect it is drawing on the same well that True Detective does. Titus Welliver makes the most of a starring role and the rest of the production is pretty strong. I have yet to finish TD season 2 or anything by James Patterson, so I…

Maybe? I don't remember. That sounds like something Mark McKinney's character would have done but he wasn't introduced until later on.

F.I.S.T. 2: Now With More Fisting

Would watch both of these.

Great, now I have to move.

The pilot was SO GOOD. I watched it a bunch of times that summer. And then the rest of it was such shit.

This is all well and good, except for the following correction: Mr. Mister was not a cool band. Not at all. They were, it could be argued, the Train of the 80s. Otherwise, 100% agreement on this garbage song by a garbage band.

The best thing I have seen from Amazon so far is Bosch. Will there be more of that? Anyone know?

They knew the risks. Especially after the first one got blown up, I mean, come on.

Wait, Castle has writers?

What if I don't particularly like Return of the Jedi at all, Ewoks or not?

Said the guy commenting on The AV Club. smh

There was a comics adaptation, but there is also a legit tie-in novel by Earl Mac Rauch, the screenwriter of the film who may or may not also be Thomas Pynchon. What is brilliant about the tie-in is the many footnotes and references, Doc Savage pulp novel style, to other adventures of BB and the HKC. It's been a long…

I have read that, and it is pretty terrible, though it does have an interesting moment where G-Rod implied that Spock had gay feelings for Kirk. Also, it was probably ghostwritten.

Best movie tie-in novel, if you can find it: Buckaroo Banzai.

More like The Mentalest, am I right? *cough*

He'll fit right in.

It is a heavy burden, to be sure. *weeps*

I'm glad to hear that people are recognizing that Skyfall was not as great as the initial reaction proclaimed (I expect everyone was relieved after the abortion that was Quantum of Solace). It's not a bad Bond film, but best ever? It's not even Craig's best. It had a strong opening chase but the final act was dull as…

I'm mainly thinking of the host segments, yeah. It feels like the enterprise in general ran out of steam after the movie. But, the SyFy MST3K was better than no MST3K.
