I don't need stuff to happen. I like the devastating one-liners.

It's prolly the piss poor acting Cougs. Everyone on that show is worried about how much they will make voicing car commercials after the cash cow dries up.

[Cougar Bait]

Yeah there's no smart witty dialogue anymore

Shit I couldn't even tell you what Pete or Roger's best line from the last episode was.

Oh maybe that's because they didn't really have any

I don't see that many plot twists...

Cutting off a nipple and a threesome is done for effect because these writers are lost

I have Mad Men about a 6.5 / 10 show this season. It's been in that neighbourhood for quite awhile. That's not bad on the surface but it is a disappointment from what it once was. Season 1 was like a 9.5 for me.

I'm sure I have said this before.

They just don't have ethereal threads and connectors any more. It's just this happened, then this happened, then this happened . . .

Some of the happenings are thought-provoking, but then some are repetitive and some make me shrug.

But I'm not close to bailing or anything. Production values are good. It's decent.

 

[Cougar Bait]

Not bailing either and agree about season 1 and 2 was a close second

Part of the reason I am a pissed is because this could have been so much better

What does it cost to see a movie these days? I saw Nebraska today but it was a matinee at the cheap theater...cost $3.00 I think...

Fucking awesome movie btw....I know I'm late to the party on that one, but if anyone else saw it, interested in their opinion...I tried to do the search option in this thread but got nowhere.

 

[bacon]

saw it

 

[IAG]

Did you like it? I can't tell if it was really that good or if it's just cuz of relating to the subject matter and it taking place near me.

 

[bacon]

not enough for a rewatch but yeah I enjoyed the shannanigans probably like a 7.2, it's solid

 

[roguejuror]

What does it cost to see a movie these days?

$9 south florida

 

[IAG]

$9 south florida

Someone posted somewhere recently it was $16 in California for a movie. I never go so I have no idea. I have probably seen less than 5 movies in a theater in the last 5 years...or longer. $9.00 doesn't seem thaaaat bad...but add in the concessions and that gets pretty pricey.

 

[roguejuror]

Almost never go either, last one I saw was Safe House with Denzel. Always have liked that nigga, been told I look like him.

 

[Mudcat]

Louie man ---> some devastating stuff in there.

 

[reno cool]

tried to watch an episode of Louie again. Was cool when he was dealing with the kids but afterwards I got disinterested pretty quick. Like alot of he's stand up and even saw him live once. But whatever it is thats good about the show, I'm missing it

 

[bacon]

Still love Louie. That poker game conversation had me in stitches as did the whole Seinfeld thing.

Californication continues to be so ho hum this year. We still have all of the ridiculous things happening but it's just not that funny anymore. His son and Runkle's crazy accomplice just haven't really carried their weight, imo.

Very pleased with the latest episode of Silicon Valley actually, easily the best episode so far and starting to feel like one to look forward to.

 

[Matty]

Yeah there's no smart witty dialogue anymore

Sounds like you just tuned out. There's been plenty of great dialogue this season.

Lou - I think Peggy is the right choice.
Pete - Well, I'm glad all agree the client is going to love having a woman's point of view - or whatever Peggy counts as - but is Don not even on the list?
Roger - I was thinking the same thing. He's spent three weeks alone in that cave, and he hasn't clubbed another ape yet.
Jim - High praise indeed.
