I disagree. I think they did a good enough job of establishing the black woman cop as a hard-ass stickler. I can't imagine her seeing a crime go and saying "eh, I just wanna go home I'll let that crime go uninspected."

He's great in In the Loop as well.

Way late to the party but yeah, their sex scene in episode 6(?) was laughable. I haven't seen worse stage kissing in… maybe ever. So bad.

Yup. My feelings exactly. She killed the entire season up to the last scene, where she sold out organic storytelling for a cheap cliffhanger. Frustrating.

I'm conflicted. It's like, I'm 100% sure everything that happened this season in regard to guard cruelty has happened in real life (barring 1 exception.)

I'm seriously fucking annoyed at that choice, tbh. They almost had a BBS3 perfect ending but Jenji was like it's been done let's go one step further.

I actually (now) love the choice to sideline NL for awhile. It provided a critical perspective of super max in S4. They're playing the long game for sure.

Sidenote - just rewatched Sicario today and the score is incredible!

What did Bugliosi say?

You'll probably never read this, but Foley it's clear you mean well. You are passionate and seem like a good person. But when you say "Blacks and Hispanics" and not "black or hispanic people", you certainly don't help your cause. It's really, really okay that you're racist. We all are. It's goddamn America. Just be

I enjoyed how at the end Foley openly admits how fucked it is, but I think he'd rather hold onto a pipe dream than not have something to believe in. I also thought it was great showing how Foley went from pure xenophobe to sympathy for normal Mexican citizens.

Let's give credit where credit is due - all great artists know how to steal, QT just is obvious about it. But no one steals like he does, because every reference is through his oeuvre.

Yeah dude SS kills it on The Knick but it really is insane to me how The Americans is so fiercely neglected. Matthew Rhys is the best male actor on TV right now

Yeah… I dunno man. A country that sees no problem with white folks in blackface IN 2009, yes I will take one racist country good sir.

PD?

Don't ask me. This was more of a stylistic "quote" than anything, but as far as the structure madness goes… eh. i love the structure of kill bill vol 1 esp the origin of o ren, but i fucking despise pulp fiction.

I'd argue it was a tonal decision rather than a story decision. QT talks exactly like the narrator on TAOJJBTCRF. Just another masturbatory "did you guys know I watch movies?" moment from QT

I don't recall the "I Got a Name", it was a long time ago but I definitely remember the hip hop songs he used… they were really bad choices.

Yeah I realized that after I posted but was on another site with Disqus couldn't edit and then forgot. My b

Ugh. I hate when I become some sort of r/MaleRights type dude - you're totally right. Covering up a portrayal exploiting shitty, negative stereotypes with "but we're not totally sure it happened" or "maybe his dick wasn't big" is mere window dressing to the racial exploitation. I read a Gawker article that detailed
