It's the most uninspired and boring way to tell that story you could imagine.

It does a wonderful job of remaining completely neutral to everything it depicts, so as to not push the audience into guessing what it's doing until right at the end, and for some audiences not even then. It makes their reaction to how it ends say more about them than the movie.

Yes. He clearly expects me to care about the director's personal struggles, and sets the critical response to his performance as a genuine victory at the end.

I laugh at the people calling Ex Machina misogynistic, given that the film is about the inability of men to see women as people.

Shakespeare was the master of the yo mamma joke.

Actually all three directors did each segment, they were only credited separately because of director's guild regulations.

But does a list of all lists contain itself?

Honestly to me this series felt like a first draft. There are interesting ideas scattered throughout, but it's nowhere near cohesive or structured enough for them all to work.

It was a weird Bonnie Tyler reference.

It was probably the training he did to play a Navy SEAL for Lone Survivor.

I'd imagine they wanted people to know he was dead, but not leave his body near where he was killed. Still, they could have kept him in the boot.

Talk normal to me, baby.

And how the main plot started in the first minute, not the sixtieth.

Roger Rabbit was riffing on Chinatown though.

By this point I think the reason series one worked was because of Fukanaga and main cast. This kind of dialogue only works if you give everything a heightened, uncomfortable-feeling atmosphere.

They were going with Short-Sighted Detective, but it wasn't as catchy.

I was thinking Chinatown, given the 'poison the land to buy it cheap for development' plot.

Series one also opened with a ritual murder to hook the viewer, series two takes a whole hour for the body to be found and the characters to meet each other.

Does he have a place of his own? Or could he just get a safety deposit box?
