I need to stop assuming low comment count= no one has made my comment yet.

Oh man I love The Sisters Brothers. I think it's a little less dark than this though; it reminds me more of a season of Fargo set in the 1870s.

I heard someone say that Cormac McCarthy's Blood Meridian is probably unfilmable but this movie comes closer to capturing the right tone than any other.

Molly Solverson is the Strong Female Character everyone was criticizing season 1 of TD for lacking.

I loved Jessica Jones but this is why Rizzoli and Isles pisses me off. In Tess Gerritsen's books not being model-pretty and resenting people who are is a major part of Rizzoli's characterization; it tells me your priorities when you respond to that by casting Angie Harmon.

Well in season 1 the only one talking like that is McConaughey, with the people around him reacting to it like normal people. Pretty much everyone talks like that in season 2.

I do, to some extent, get what he was trying to replicate: the sprawling, deliberately dizzying, billion-loose-ends L.A. noir feel of something like Raymond Chandler or Michael Connelly. It was just ill-suited to a) an audience at large that watches TV for entertainment, not to appreciate homage and b) a short season.

She was a McConaughey-esque (albeit not to the same extent) revelation for me and you could really tell that they wanted that to be what Vaughn was.

I didn't hate it at all but I really don't think the issue was that Pizzolatto was indulged too little.

If you think I'm reading any MRA comment with a readmore you have exactly the kind of oblivious optimism the movement needs. I salute you.

Also this.

Imagine being the kind of person who thinks this sounds badass.

Depends on the insult.

Is it that feminists don't want them talked about, or is it that they tell you "that's not what we're talking about" when you use them to disrupt conversations about issues that primarily affect women?

Trumpmania gave them the wrong idea, I think. "How can we NOT be influential? Our guy is polling at 30 percent of 20 percent of the country!"

If I were you I'd probably be tired of humor too.

You can tell it's an important movement because it's currently deployed its forces to be annoying on a pop culture site.

Just so one of these is at the top of the thread: NO ONE CARES WHAT YOU DINGUSES CALL YOUR PARTICULAR SUB-FACTION.
