VDay posted:Yeah I don't really mind the character/actor since the pilot made it pretty clear that he's more of a conman than some rough pirate. We'll see where they go with it but I'm alright with him for now. Yeah, they made it pretty obvious with his first scenes that he's an opportunistic guy who tries to lay low until he sees a chance to capitalize. The actor seemed fine to me, he showed some personality when he was first talking to the cook at the beginning, the rest of the episode the character was just going with the flow and observing poo poo. That wig he has is terrible though.

socialsecurity posted:Yeah compare the Tourney of the Hand to well any battle in Spartacus and tell me which is more visually interesting. Yeah, I thought Spartacus was leagues better than GoT at things like making the background settings feel like real living, breathing places with actual populations and getting a consistently epic feel out of their limited resources.

Yeah, I like him too. A character like his could easily get to be too over the top and I like that he's more low key right now. CODChimera posted:It seems like a few people missed this. AV Club gave it a D+ which is a bit ridiculous even before you see that Helix got a B. That's crazy, I can understand if someone just doesn't like the show, but D's on AVClub usually go to poo poo that's objectively bad. BlackJosh posted:Jack Rackham might be my favorite character on the show. Both him and and the guy who plays Vane really seem to capture at least the myths that surround these two guys very well. nooneofconsequence posted:Where can I buy those sunglasses? My favorite thing about him is the Brian Setzer hair. Oh, also, I love the Mr T pirate that's been in the background of some scenes savinhill fucked around with this message at 22:23 on Feb 11, 2014 |

nooneofconsequence posted:I like how Rackham was like, "I'll get back on my feet with my wits," whereas Vane was like, "I'll get back on my feet by murdering some assholes." I hope we get to see more of that huge barbarian dude he kept hallucinating and Vane's backstory is as cool as I'm imagining it should be.

Five Cent Deposit posted:You'll see more of that big dude in a future episode, yes. Also next week's episode has a sea battle. Reading this, I figure Flint's going to want to attack the captain who was supposed to give him the cannons before he gets them back aboard and ready to use, then I remembered Flint's ship is still beached and being repaired. There is Vane's ship, was that one beached too?

Caufman posted:They should take the Urca as a prize ship and make a gently caress deck. Why aim so low? They could make it a gently caress Ship, just imagine all the different sex swings and harnesses they could make with the rigging and canvas.

Fenris13 posted:There is no way of knowing for sure who it was, and while the blackbeard vibe was there, it seems if we were supposed to think that was him, his name would have been heard. When he beat Vane and kneeled down and said that he was proud of him, I got much more of a "Luke, I am your father" kind of vibe than just a random famous pirate. Yeah, the dude was a former pirate captain who talked his crew into forming some kind of mini colony where they harvested and sold lumber. It seemed Vane was more than just a former crew member, by what you said already, and also by the matching brand he had with the black kid. What exactly that was wasn't made totally clear yet. Anyway, I loved that episode and it seems like shits on now.

Svaha posted:Silver: That scene was so funny, just thinking about it makes me smile. Tighclops posted:I want more about Flint's motivations before I decide I'm totally against him or not. What did they accuse him of in England that was so horrible? Something like having an affair with Mrs Barlow that drove her husband/his commanding officer to suicide I think, but that's from what a couple of different characters said during conversations they were having while trying to manipulate eachother, so it could end up being bullshit.
