The part at the end of the first episode (which is the only one I've watched) where he gives that speech was just so bad. As for The Minority Report, it continues to be so generic and bland I can't see anyone giving a poo poo when it is canceled.

And yup, same dude, from The New Guy and everything. I'd only seen him recently in a cameo in the Big Bang Theory. He was a decent actor at playing awkward as hell or overall goof. Is that what they're DOING in Z-Nation? In any case, I posted this in another thread, but it bears repeating. The iZombie cast did a some homage videos that are about 15 seconds long each and pretty freaking hilarious. http://www.ign.com/articles/2015/10...418bd683f000008

He is Citizen Z, who is the sole survivor along with his wolf buddy in a secret government base with a bunch of survailance crap in some snowy place who broadcasts radio messages of hope and poo poo and gives the characters their mission also sometimes zombie wolves/soldiers/whatever shows up. Also the nukes. I don't think the nukes were zombies but you never know! Last week there was a weed zombie.

An Ounce of Gold posted:This is what's wrong with Something Awful now, mods just probating people based on their own opinions and sensibilities instead of thinking "hey was that post informative or interesting". Oh no, he said the word retard when referring to someone who is autistic. That's a type of humor employs the tactic of exaggeration. I can't believe I loving have to explain that to anyone. Who loving cares? This site was built on being non-pc and making off-color jokes. His post was a funny breakdown of the first episode and was interesting (notice there are more people noting the probation than caring about his blurb about the episode). You should learn the difference between trolling and making a creative post. There is a difference. Alternatively though, gently caress off.

Minority Report episode 1: "We're being a little fascist but it's to stop a terror attack" Episode 2: "We're bending over backwards to not be fascist, and if we had been fascists we'd have arrested the wrong guy." Episode 3: "Our sorta-fascist precog agrees with the INCREDIBLY fascist computer algorithm, so it's time to go peak Police State on this guy to save a life!" I dislike shows hammering home a moral message as much as the next guy, but the tone's been all over the place.

Rarity posted:From what I saw, Supergirl is the superhero show that Hollywood thinks women want to watch. I suspect Jessica Jones will be the superhero show that women actually want to watch. The source material is amazing, the lead actress is quality, the released promos imply a disturbing and adult tone and Daredevil was fantastic. I think all the pieces are in place for it to be just as good as its stablemate. The one reason I'd exercise caution is that the showrunner, Melissa Rosenberg, is a bit of a wildcard; a collection of upsides and downsides which have conditions attached to their conditions. Let me break it down: -She's best known as the screenwriter for the Twilight films... -...but you could argue that she wouldn't have much control over them anyway, since the series was a cultural phenomenon and any major deviation from it would've been called out and shamed. -Before that she was a writer/producer on Dexter... -...during seasons 1-4. She was a top lieutenant in the room -- perhaps even co-showrunner -- for S4, which is when everyone started to think it was getting its poo poo back together. Coincidentally, when she left after that, the show went off a cliff. -However, the one show she got on the air afterwards (Red Widow) was a boring slog... -...that aired on ABC, which isn't really known for executives that "get it." -Then again, Netflix has a "hands-off" approach for its writers and its led to the kind of groggy-paced dramas (Marco Polo) that matched Red Widow's speed, even if their payoffs could be incredible (Bloodline). -And really, all of this amounts to guesstimating from an experienced viewer with very little in the way of insider knowledge. I'm optimistic because of everything else I've seen -- plus, well, I'm me. But I've left plenty of room for caution this time. DivisionPost fucked around with this message at 20:09 on Oct 6, 2015 |

Bruceski posted:Minority Report episode 1: "We're being a little fascist but it's to stop a terror attack" Urgh. Think I'll skip that then. I have a real problem with the generically packaged undertones of authoritarian/fascist propaganda that are almost ubiquitous in certain types of US dramas. One that is see-sawing back and forth seems almost worse, because it implies an understanding that the message is wrong, but an inability or unwillingness to refuse to perpetuate it.
