What about Camp X-Ray?

Anyone get shades of Agent Bloom from Boondock Saints 2 when she walked in so unannounced?

I'd say Rebecca getting a dog to rip a guy's throat out then laughing hysterically was pretty there.

I think the line Hood said about recognizing a Burnout was really telling, on the outside she look like a typical action movie woman with snark and sass, but on the inside she may feel like she's stuck and being assigned to this case was just one more example of how people don't trust her and how she feels pressure to

I'm still not going to count Proctor out until we get the final scene. If you look at his arc so far being grief and trying to move forward it's pretty lame, but if you look at it as a man who killed his only family because he couldn't deal with her trying to get away from him then it's gonna be one heck of an ending.

I noted that unlike Justified where everything is low key menacing, Banshee seems to exist in the a literally wasteland of sin and violence that none a SINGLE ordinary citizen seems to notice.

Yeah, though I don't think she was ever trying to really be a crime lord, she was just trying to survive and the business was the only thing she was good at…

He's a misogynistic asshole though.

yeah, this ain't Scream.

She defended herself against bikers and had fashion magazines. It's overkill, and she ended up going to the worst man to survive.

I'm still holding out on the idea that the serial killer is separate from who killed Rebecca, but it's becoming harder to imagine him cutting her still-beating heart out..

I realized the other day how little presence the Amish have had on the show, and was wondering when they'd bring in Rebecca's parents. Got to say, Miriam's rebuke that she knew her prayers had gone unanswered when he took her in says a lot about how isolationist they are.

Possibly. But it's also a sort of different look at what the Gounders value in leadership. Ontari has the strength and the poise, and would be a great leader to those who wanted skaikru gone, but she's also not well equipped to deal with the diplomatic aspects that Lexa excelled at.

I like Ontari because the little that we've seen of her suggests all her toughness and entitlement is a mask.

I'd buy it. She seemed very much like Liisbeth.

I got to see an early screening of this a couple days ago with the director on hand and while It was pretty good, the thing that struck me most is he wrote it sometime ago before all the white supremacist reactionary violence started being picked up by the media. He was kind of evasive about bringing politics into the

Don't you mean Brit Marling?

Because he wants to control the women in his life, because he has a madonna/whore complex that is frightening in it's subtlety.
