I just see Sookie as another Bella character. She not particularly smart (has she ever come up with a really clever plan?) I love how Jason message mention Niall and it doesn't register with Sookie that she hasn't seen her great-grandfather in...days (has anyone ever figured out how time works on this show?). He…

Yea she pretty much has to die this season. There is no way she can survive killing a rep from the place that creates Tru Blood, she just does not have that kinda juice. I'm kinda hoping that Steve gets to finish her off.

Sookie has decision making/understanding abilities of a child. How many days has she knows Ben/Warlow and she's willing to be turned -which would give him total power over her as her maker-. She remembers Warlow threatening her in the bathroom, then she immediately ignores it and puts more time getting dressed for…

Oh, I don't dispute that at all. Sookie is the author of her own situation, and now her indecision and bad decisions and all that are finally culminating in some actual consequences, or at least appear to. That's the part I like.

FOR SCIENCE.

No, they injected him with a(tracking?)chip- that they pulled out before they cast him to the female vampires.

Con: Seeing Andy's daughter naked. Isn't she only 16? I don't need to see bee sting boobies.

Pro: Yes Eric taunting Bill was amazing "YOU ARE MOVING ME WITH YOUR MIIIND!!!" "PRAISE BILL!!!" OH god I could of done an hour of that!!!

They were tested in various ways including arena fights to assess their capabilities, and then given a number. Tara was a pro fighter for a while as a mortal, so it's no surprise she'd outclass him as a vampire too.

MEGA PRO: Sarah gets kicked in the vagina, that made the episode for me

When Alcide told Sam he was sorry for his loss, I thought for one shining second that someone remembered that Sam's very serious girlfriend had died like three days earlier. But, nope.

That fight was the best thing to come out of True Blood in YEARS! lol

The whole point of Side Effects is that she wasn't taking the drugs. It was a Hitchcockian thriller, plain and simple.

Recently I have a very movie-like dream, including the appearance of scenes and cuts. It had an epilogue where I entered a restaurant seemingly for no particular reason, and then later that scene was played again with extension cuts that explains why I was there. I didn't know my sleeping brain could form that kind of…

There's a recent book that took that angle - Before I Go to Sleep. It starts out with an amnesiac who wakes up every day not knowing who or where she is, and she has her loving husband (and notes from herself) to explain her life - she's married, happy, nice house, etc. As the book goes on, *SPOILER ALERT* she finds a…

Also: of course a placebo can have the same effect as the drug itself. That's what the placebo effect is.

Yeah, the problems brought up were the whole point of the movie. Its premise is if an extremely rare side effect is thought to happen and results in a death, who is responsible? It isnt saying that those side effects are common, and in fact they turn out to be elaborately fabricated

Yes, it looks like someone wrote about a film without actually paying much attention to watching it first.

Yes. I think that the key element of the plot was that the perceived protagonist for the first half of the movie (Rooney Mara), was actually the antagonist, and was faking the "side-effects." She did not sue him. Rather, he was part of her defense team in her trial for the murder of her husband.

Um, in 50 first dates, she doesn't "lose her past" as you put it. She can't make new memories, it's actually exactly like memento. Now granted you might be able to argue that she's able to remember the one day exactly is not right, like maybe she should be reseting every 5-10 minutes like the memento guy. The "same…
