I finally watched the first 2 episodes of Samurai Jack's 5th season. And, at some point, during a training montage there, I was thinking: here's a better Iron Fist show.

It hurts me to see him (and to some extent his Banshee co-star, Hoon Lee) wasted on this. Outside of Jessica Henwick being a much better lead than Jones, the best acting, through the worst script, comes from Pelphrey and Wenham.

So, I am at episode 10, and still undecided whether Finn Jones really is a bad actor, or he's an OK actor that can't do anything without proper direction.

10 years from now, Damien Chazelle brings you Trump:The Opera starring Domhnall Gleeson as Donal Trump, Miles Teller as Ted Cruz

I'm pretty sure they can get a voice cameo, without even having it be Xavier explicitly. Which would still be awesome.

How does that Blur song go?

Is this where I say I honestly believe American Gods will fail? Unless Fuller goes full-on the symbolism route, a la Hannibal.
Or that Scalped had already been (loosely) adapted into the excellent Banshee?
Or that, if they were doing a Jason Aaron comic, the best bet would have been Southern Bastards? Seriously, picture…

I don't think I've ever seen a show build tension quite like this. Or have this amount of dread on screen, constantly(not that it can't do humor). Maybe a few episodes of Hannibal.

Weirdly enough, though solid, this wasn't an A for me.

So I just watched this. It has Timothy Olyphant in housewife mode, Nathan Fillion in jerk mode, Drew Barrymore in a young, but more restrained, Barrymore mode, and, I don't know, a sense of humor?

I was sitting there, watching the scene and thinking: "the producers must be watching Z Nation".

Let's be honest, Suicide Squad is not as bad as X-men Origins: Wolverine. That being said, it's a laughable movie(as in worthy of derision, not funny) when you take into account all the talent involved. it is also the exact opposite of what I hoped it would be, before seeing the trailers - given what Ayer had done…

Sometimes it's (intentionally) borderline cartoonish (especially in the later seasons), but Shannon really sells it. The character may be written as cartoonish, but it gains dimensions with his performance.

I blinked, so I missed it…

Add a couple of cardboard boxes and you're set!

There's really a lot to credit this: Casino Royale, Boardwalk Empire, Syriana, and the list goes on.

Many, but all behind the cameras.

You mean, like the last seasons of Boardwalk Empire?

I was excited to point to more memorable things from the movie, then I realized I barely remember the silver coins battle.

Weirdly enough, my introduction to Stanley Tucci was Muerte, as well. I was young, but that character is still etched onto my brain.
