I'm autistic too and have the same experience. In my case, I can often read people very well as an outsider or when watching a movie, but I have a really hard time processing social cues when interacting with people, just because understanding emotion and social cues is very much something I have to concentrate on and

Yeah, "Pacific" was awesome. I liked it better than "Band of Brothers," even. Makes me wish HBO would finally just do a WWI mini-series.

He was awesome in "The Pacific." It was one of those rare performances were I'd never seen him before, but recognized him in everything since as the guy from the Pacific.

I think it was mostly some kind of contract negotiation where TLC didn't want to pay them what they wanted anymore. I don't get the sense that Adam and Jamie were all that attached to them, though, so I doubt they put up a fight. They don't even seem to like each other much, outside of the show.

They go live when they air. I've watched GOT at 8pm (CST) before.

It was especially bad for Sense8 because the show doesn't really indicate what it's going to be in the first 3 episodes, which is what most reviews were based on. I think its scores would have been higher had reviewers watched the full season.

Water's like sand, but not as irritating or hateful.

Characters lose a part of themselves when they are resurrected, which is why I don't see it as a cheap plot contrivance as it tends to alter them significantly. Beric becomes less and less himself everytime he comes back, Cat is basically an inhuman embodiment of vengence. Who knows what Jon will be if he comes back.

The price will probably have been Shireen.

Book lover or no, the ending of Stannis' storyline felt completely rushed and truncated. We didn't even get to see a scene of him speaking with Melisandra before she ran off, so we really have no idea how he felt about the death of his daughter, nor how he came down as a follower of the Lord of Light before he died.

Book is way better than TV show. Not just for the footnotes, but also most of its humor and enjoyment are in the way it's told, which is a deadpan imitation of Jane Austen. So you'll like it even more if you are familiar with Austen and other early 19th century British writers.

It will all depend on how they depict the Fairy Realm. I always imagined it as full blown, 1935, "A Midsummer Night's Dream," in black and silver, with lenses smeared in Vaseline, random ballets, and floaty shiny things everywhere:

But she's 5'11. Isn't that pretty average? Or is that considered massive for a girl?

Yeah. I prefer her to Chastain, who is always way more "IMPORTANT ACTRESS!" If BDH wasn't an H no one would second guess her acting at all.

No one came out well in Spiderman 3.

Because they are all like 91 years old.

I think it's more likely that his body just gave out due to the fact that he'd been living in it for 91 years.

Ditto. I didn't much like episodes 1 and 2 at all, but got into things episodes 3/4. It is uneven at times, contains some odd tangents and hamfisted character moments, but also moments of brilliance and stuff never before seen in a TV show. I think the long form of the show suits the Wachowskis, too, in that it

The old mythology of Gilliam as a brilliant artist working against studio constraint is completely dead. His new narrative seems to be the director who makes one shitty movie after another, none of which are hugely successful, yet somehow still gets funding every time.

He's also not really anti-gay and is more of a radical libertarian. He is insane, though, largely because he has a fondness for conspiracy theories and "THE SKY IS FALLING!" apocalyptic prophecies, all underscored with a sappy, maudlin, sentimentality and a fondness for peddling self-help vaguely new agey spiritual
