Oh my, it does look like it's True Blood. Well spotted, mate.

I don't know what you're complaining about. It's just a guy touching his penis. Hands. Penises. Things most males have. I wouldn't be bothered at all; in fact, I would welcome it as a playful diversion from my busy and rather tedious school routine.

I'm watching it on Netflix at the moment (I didn't watch it during its original run for some reason), and I simply cannot watch more than one episode at a time. It's normally one episode every one, often two, weeks. I find it too… episodic to be binge-watchable.

The main purpose of going to a film theatre is to watch a newly-released motion picture, not trailers. I hope you're joking.

This has been the most (though sadly not only) irritating thing about trailers for me. I tend to nearly always avoid them, unless it's for a movie I know will probably be great. What a sad thing. I sometimes re-watch trailers for movies such as 'American Beauty' and 'The Social Network' just to remind myself what good…

…or you guys could just, you know, not watch the trailers at the movie theatre.

A degree doesn't automatically turn you into an authority in anything, just like the lack of one doesn't disqualify you from being able to make good points.

If you specifically mean academic qualifications in the field of filmmaking, the arts or any related subject, then I have none. One, however, does not need academic qualifications in order to be critical, or to be correct in one's criticism. One's being correct in one's argument is not directly influenced by one's…

You are unaware of my views on the matter, and yet you deem said views unworthy of merit or consideration. This speaks only for your own stupidity, and nothing else.

It's adorable that you presume I'd care what a complete stranger on the Internet has to say in regard to my character and integrity.

I don't think I ever said I wouldn't be willing to 'explain myself', as you put it. Although I wouldn't do it on my own accord, I wouldn't object to doing so should anyone request it. You need only say the word

I was not 'waiting coyly for someone to entice [me] into explaining [my]self', though. You presumed too much.

I said in my very first reply that art is not entirely subjective; there are objective paradigms by which it can be judged and scrutinised. This show is, quite obviously, objectively bad, and the way it's been received with acclaim is beyond reason, and it is, like I have also said, in a way lamentable that critics…

I just think these things can go differently. One possible scenario being:

I never claimed that title, you're quite off-base here. And of course I could be objectively wrong about my views on this series, no question about that. But instead of asking me why I think this show is dreadful and perhaps starting an intelligent discussion, people resort to being smart-arses without even knowing…

You seem to be in the illusion that art is completely subjective, which of course it isn't; otherwise there would be no room for criticism, only opinions. And this 'opinion' argument also seems to be (correct me if I'm mistaken) something to which you resort quite often when you come across criticism of something you…

How this series is getting such positive reviews everywhere is very telling of the ghastly state film and TV criticism finds itself in at the moment. Quite depressing.

But that's the thing: Norway would never be so foolish as to jump off the Brooklyn Bridge. Tsk, tsk.

That's quite impressive. I myself remember neither the score nor the songs. I mean, with the exception of 'Meet Me In The Equinox' by Death Cab For Cutie (which is a song I like rather a lot). I think the songs in the first movie were more memorable (they were to me at least); I actually listened to the first movie's…

I'm very nearly certain that the original commentator, in their use of the word 'soundtrack', actually meant, well, the soundtrack—as in a record of songs played in the movie—, not the film score. (But who knows, maybe I'm wrong.)
