I think I remember an interview with him in the 90s where he said that his favorite thing to do on a Friday night was watch Beavis & Butt-head and laugh himself silly.

It's basically not very good: i) it's slow as gently caress, and apart from the 6/10 hotel fight, and the 8.5/10 church fight.

Blazing Ownager posted:He did back then too. Despite what everyone thinks of Patrick Stewart, he's into things like dirt racing (seriously) and kept wanting more of an action part. He's pretty much nothing at all like the roles he's famous for, made even more notable by the fact he's actually really good at comedy. Yeah, Stewart's had a pretty varied career away from Trek, being known as one the best Shakespearian actors in the business isn't a bad legacy. For some reason I always figured Richard O'Brien for Herr Starr, but he's now 75 and starting to look his age, sadly. Ten or fifteen years ago, maybe.

The only way the hotel fight can be rated as a 6 is if it's on a 1 to 5 scale.

That's a pretty spoilerific trailer. Looks like it's headed more toward the books, the diner scene looks very reminiscent of the first scene in the books, then "road trip!". Unfortunately I have a feeling the Saint is gonna pretty much be the final scene of season 1.

Note the scene she was watching in Psycho with Janet Lee and Anthony Hopkins' characters talking about being isolated and entrapped. The Mayor was a trap in her life and something she never would've escaped if he hadn't died. She would've gone through her entire life in that screwed up quasi-relationship with him and likely never would've gotten past it so she ended it the only way she knew how.

Yeah, I mean I get that angle of it, and he was just like "I'm coming and sleeping over" kind of dominating her and taking away her choice in the matter, but straight up murder is a hell of a step up. I mean it's in line with the crazy world of preacher, but it still seems like a hell of a step up for this mostly normal and nice lady. It's not like she's been shown to like Cassidy or anything either, so it's clearly just her wanting him dead. I dunno, just kind of looking for more of a reason here, other than being a preacher character makes you 10x more likely to kill people.

I really think they should have trimmed a minute off the Cowboy's repeat when they were showing the loop. That felt a little long. Everything else was great though. Though I did expect Cassidy to show a little more remorse for killing a dude, given it was his own fault kind of.

Yep. That it did. Think I was fairly indifferent till 2 or 3 episodes ago. The Ratwater Saint scene grabbed me but freakin Odin Quincannon was the thing that got me to be really hooked. Really hope he survives this season. Wouldn't mind him popping back in the series later along. Amen to a second season. Also I'm glad that one Ratwater preacher used a LeMat (when he shot the Saint's horse). Never see enough of that gun. Blazing Ownager posted:I really think they should have trimmed a minute off the Cowboy's repeat when they were showing the loop. That felt a little long. Its funny as that minute carried it over for me. I started off like "meh - this takes away from the opener", then irritation went to eye rolling but towards the end it started becoming a little disturbing. The bit after the cycle stopped, with overhead shot panning over all those dead patrons was just perfect. I really dig the Saint of Killers scenes far more than I thought I would.

The loop ran a little long (it was pretty obvious what they were going for when they repeated it the first time) but even though the HELL text popping up should have irritated me for belaboring the point, I ended up loving it, especially since it plays off the previous times of bringing up RATWATER as the text. Along with the sound sting it gave me a nice The Shining vibe.

Of course, he's not the Saint of Killers yet, he's still just a damned soul. Hell didn't look cold. My guess is when Fiore tries to leave with him, we might get to see the Devil. I mean, the soon-to-be SoK is probably Hell's number one generator of misery in that he gets to relive not only the worst day of his life, but they also get to harvest the joy he gets from killing everyone over and over for all eternity like a homicidal Sisyphus with a bottomless bottle of whiskey. My guess is the moment he leaves Hell, it'll freeze over because he's the fire they've all been huddled around. Eugene will appear to Jesse again and let him know that "shumwon sthurned tshe ahr cundishunning on." BIG HEADLINE fucked around with this message at 11:13 on Jul 25, 2016 |

That episode was a pretty good ride. Whatshername sacrificing the mayor to Cassidy seemed a bit extreme for her character; sure he's a bit of a dick, but she was sleeping with him right? And she even called him her boyfriend, although maybe she was just bullshitting to cover when talking to Tulip. I mean she clearly didn't love him, but sacrificing him to Cassidy seems a bit much. Everything with the SoK was amazing. Ohhhh poo poo. That "HELL" reveal. You think the angels are going after Arseface to appease Jesse, and then twist, nope, they're going after the SoK. That whole groundhog-day sequence was pretty trippy and well done. GRANNYS PEACH TEA posted:

I was pretty thrown by that decision as well, but I look at it like this: -The god she's devoted to is nothing short of awful. -She recently found out vampires are not only real, but one is living in her guest bedroom. -The scene from Psycho -Her boyfriend is a Quincannon toadie, and thus an affront to said awful god she's devoted to. -Giving Cassidy a human's worth of blood drastically reduces the immediate threat he poses to her (and everyone else's) personal safety. -He's pretty much the only large, fleshy, object she could get in the house without attracting much attention. -She has not-so-secretly been an awful person this entire time, like everyone else in the show but Cassidy, who is an awful person overtly, making him the show's moral center. -MEAT FOR THE MEAT GOD!

I actually could see her wanting to save some animals' lives over that of someone who has basically been courting her by saying, "You are never going to do better than me, so just accept it and stop fighting." I mean, gently caress that poo poo. I mean, it was cold as hell, and I'm willing to admit that I think it was too far. I would have accepted something like her trying to get him to help with something but it all goes to poo poo and then in an act of desperation she locks him in the room or something. But this was totally premeditated. Like just have him be all controlling and lame, come over to the house and dig his own grave. I am really happy that Cassi and Jesse are buds again

Man, I think I have to rewatch this because im not sure where yall are getting the Mayor being some dominant creepy predator. Hes basically been just a lovesick puppy clinging on to the bone shes throwing him of casual sex and the one time he tries to assert himself and become more than her human dildo she sacrifices him to a monster.

But this was totally premeditated. Like just have him be all controlling and lame, come over to the house and dig his own grave. Yeah, exactly. That would have played out much better. Even better, have him show up loving uninvited, try to get her to sleep with him, she tries to brush him off, he keeps pushing it, and then she asks him to help her with something in the other room.... blam. That'd work better. Basically have him try to rape her and have her use Cassidy as a weapon to defend herself. But instead she calls him up all premeditated. Murder, even indirect murder by another person, seems just a bit extreme for her. I get that the whole town's hosed up, but if this wasn't Preacher-ville it would make zero sense. Her character isn't perfect for sure, but she's no stone cold killer. the_american_dream posted:Man, I think I have to rewatch this because im not sure where yall are getting the Mayor being some dominant creepy predator. Hes basically been just a lovesick puppy clinging on to the bone shes throwing him of casual sex and the one time he tries to assert himself and become more than her human dildo she sacrifices him to a monster. It was very subtle up until now and could have kinda gone either way. We know he kept trying to insert himself more into her life, he wanted to stay over and make a big show of it to the kids, but she wanted him to just scoot afterwards. But that could just mean that she liked him but wanted to keep it a secret. We find out for sure though that he's a bit of a controlling dick when he's talking to her on the phone this episode and saying how he's definitely going to stay the night this time and she didn't really have any say in it. He's being very forceful and controlling. He wants to be her husband and play daddy for her kids; that much is obvious. And he knows she doesn't want it, but he's tired of her resisting and doesn't care. Still, he doesn't say that until she's already called him up, and already premeditated that she's going to kill him. And even then, its not like he was saying "I'm gonna rape you", he's just saying "Hey I'm going to stay over and let your kids know I'm here whether you like it or not" which is bad, but... IDK. It was a little awkwardly handled and could have been better if it was more subtle like JossiRossi suggested. Zaphod42 fucked around with this message at 18:15 on Jul 25, 2016 |
