Frank Frank posted:Season 1 owned. Then the budget got yanked Yea, season one was fantastic. Season two was mediocre. I have zero intention of watching season three. Season two got hit with recast after recast after recast and I really just lost faith in it, in addition to season three taking place in one of the hardest sections of the book to adapt to TV. If they adapted it straight out, it would just be Shadow hanging out in some ski restort-esque town for the whole time, helping his neighbor with chores and just trying to be a regular guy. If you haven't done so, read the book instead. It is way better.

Frank Frank posted:Seriously, don’t ever do this. Donate on your own if you want to but don’t donate to some corporation’s tax write-off You are incorrect, just FYI. Your donations are only deductable by you. This also goes for at-the-register donations, like at the supermarket. I don't know why corporations do this, but Amazon can't write off your charity donation. Also they don't have to; they already dodge all their taxes. edit: here's one article

Yeah Amazon can gently caress right off with their tax dodging, but it's not because of your charity donations.

I think the scam is that they collect donations all year and have them in some kind of interest bearing vehicle, then make a donation at the end of the year.

Someone in Cinema Discusso found a mockup poster someone on the web did of a Netflix reboot of Columbo w/Mark Ruffalo as Columbo, and while I don't trust Netflix to get it right, Ruffalo is a decent choice

Not sure you could do Columbo without it just feeling like someone impersonating Peter Falk as Columbo. If you do that, it’ll probably feel like a cheap knock off, but if you don’t, the character would be all wrong. Don’t know that anyone else would be able to make that role their own successfully.

Aramoro posted:Vincent d'onofrio was the best Colombo like guy, I think he's a bit old and grey now maybe. Yeah, L&O:CI is probably the closest to nailing the detective process that Columbo uses. It's a good show up until the weird arc where D'Onofrio is framed by a murderer he's been pursuing who alludes to being attracted to him, and then it turns out his investigative mentor is involved in helping frame him

I guess it's good to learn a bit more about Norse mythology outside of Thor comics because I only knew Ymir as a villain to Odin and the Asgardians, didn't know in myths he's actually Odin's ancestor.

Mauser posted:So, I definitely want that thirty years' war podcast to be real, but on the topic of Columbo, one of the really cool things you get to see as you go through it is a lot of very famous actors when they're super young or just famous as hell, but maybe not at that time. Columbo is a working-class schlub who goes up against the rich and powerful, and absolutely destroying their lives with only his mind, persistence, and righteous fury. Columbo = Class Warrior. (ACAB, even Columbo)
