We'll get it eventually I'm sure, but I think they've made the wise choice of spacing out the films involving fan-favourites, just to keep us on our toes.

They already mentioned it earlier this year, and Andrew got very excited by the fact that that was now ten years old. So yes, I'm betting we get one- it just wouldn't be a WHM Summer Blockbuster Extravaganza without some Roland Emmerich.

I actually liked Sling Blade when I watched it recently…it isn't great, but I don't know, it worked for me a lot better than Forrest Gump, which is pretty bad.

Oh no, I'm well aware of that- I've been around for several years. But it seems that the classic line of 'Fuck You, The Killing', is now always followed by someone defending the show's third season, which takes the fun out of things.

I believe they also only sent two episodes of The Killing for review, and look how that turned out!

I want to see Mads Mikkelsen win something so he can accept the award in character, and muse on what the meaning of the award says about God, power and man's animal nature.

Uh…commendable work ethic?

I appreciate it Myles; much as I love a good pan, it's always interesting to see someone engage seriously with television's detritus. Good review for a show I had no interest in watching.

So the problem is that NBC is a business that is concerned with profitability? What a shocking revelation!

Well, he had a pretty major role in the sixth season, and an entire episode devoted to him in the fourth…

The reason you have to be the hater is that those of us who wouldn't even call it good anymore have stopped watching it.

Yeah I'm pretty desensitised to it at this point. Still pretty and gross, but doesn't have the same impact as it did in S1 from a horror standpoint.

Well, I've heard that reading as well, and it strikes me as so purely nihilistic as to be similarly distasteful.

I sure wish I had been watching the movie you were watching. All I got during scenes like the Bear Jew scene was 'isn't killing nazis funny?!'

I did not like IB for…somewhat similar reasons, but I think this Salem show is rancid in a different way. To use the same example, but while risking invoking Godwin's Law, this show is like if someone made a fictionalised account of the Nazi regime, but suggested that actually there was a massive Jewish-Communist

Uh, we have much more stringent gun laws than you do, not that that would be hard.

Oh I bet there is, but it's all within Slytherin house so they keep it hushed up.

This is actually a pretty good review. it almost makes me want to check the show out.

Sounds like you need to read World War Z, which sort of deals with stuff like that.

In that case, it's a Truman Show scenario.
