That would be "putting God to the test." A huge sin. And he would know that.

You know who would believe he had raped Mary if he found out she hadn't actually woken up? Matt. Matt would totally see it that way.

If he had sex with Mary in a delusional state where he truly thought she was awake then he is not a rapist.

Matt meant that it predated Evie's disappearance, didn't he?

Kevin is so damn irritable.

Man, I was just going to comment the exact same thing. That Wire moment really stuck in people's minds, I guess!

Upvoted for "angst as sheep's clothing."

Because a couple of people brought it up below: My take on the Beating of Brian was that it was an Old Testament God the Father thing. God rules and punishes with an iron rod, etc. To get back into Miracle Matt has to act like a stern, punishing, Old Testament God. But ultimately he takes the Christ option by…

Just like with Kevin and Patti and Laurie, [son-can't-think-of-his-name], and his healing powers, Matt's relationship with Mary in this episode isn't *affected by* insanity — all of these things are meant to *be* visual representations of these characters' "insanity." There has to be an internal logic to these bizarre…

Well, it'll probably turn out that his attempted murder was connected to him protecting the town in some way, don't you think? I mean, that would explain everyone's loyalty to him.

And you need wristbands to get to the main stage.

Why would Mary ask Matt to "Hurry" if she meant "the boy" and not her baby? The boy was inside Miracle by then. Same thing with the man in the Visitor Center.

Uh…I couldn't see much makeup and the lighting was brutal. I would probably look worse and I'm younger than she is.

Why would Under the Skin have been "just barely" considered eligible? Seems pretty much straight-up horror to me.

More people should see that. I keep my cell phone completely out of sight when I drive now.

Woman in Black is entirely jump scares. And they are piled on top of each other so quickly that it's hard to follow the story. Which may have been the point because the story is just goofy.

No. Genre is determined more by form than theme.

I think Cabin in the Woods was very good but it stopped just short of being a horror movie, for me. And I scare ridiculously easy.

When it moved, it became a prop. "Property" in the stage sense doesn't connote ownership by the characters. It has the older connotation of "characteristic of" or "an appurtenance of" something larger, in this case the scenery. That tombstone was supposed to be part of the scenery but when it fell over it became…

That one episode had to tell Rye's entire story (his whole arc as a character was contained in that one episode) as well as introduce the rest of the characters. It did a great job.
