Well, shit. It was a good 14 year run, but now I gotta find a new show/series.
(Saul ending was good.)
Feel like they did Luis Guzman dirty with that wig.
godard would be so mad
this is just what he warned us about 50 years ago
but this will ruin the seo for the 1994 cartoon ReBoot and also itâs recent 2018 reboot
Do you think godard has seen bojack horseman
No. He has zero chill.
I watched the first season of Moral Orel this week. When I saw it on TV as like someone who was, I think, in middle school, I found it uniquely uncomfortable. Watching it now it is less visceral but I can appreciate that there is a strong even brutal quality of spite to all the ridiculous comedy and the obvious satire. Itâs just kind of repugnant in the way you only notice a thing is if you let your mind linger and think about it too much. Really strange show, I think itâs worth seeing.
I hear the third season changes things up. Itâs got a lot of Mountain Goats and is apparently a huge bummer. Very excited to be revisiting this show. If you havenât checked this out in a while, or Xavier: Renegade Angel, I think these are the two Adult Swim animated shows from the late 2000s that were really doing anything worth paying attention to.
And not 12oz Mouse?
I did recently catch a clip of that, first time in years. I wonder if itâs good!
Okay I think the best way I can explain it is that Moral Orel is really good at depicting commonplace evil.
I watched the first two episodes of that Amazon Lord of the Rings TV show. If you liked the Peter Jackson trilogy, then I donât see why you wouldnât like this. It seems fine so far and seems to have a decent budget so it doesnât look like garbage. Iâve never read anything by Tolkien, though, so I donât have any frame of reference for most of whatâs going on or who these characters are outside of a few names I recognize from the Peter Jackson movies. At the very least, the TV show seems to be more interesting than the Hobbit movies, which I couldnât sit through. I donât really care about the Not Hobbits or Elrond Hubbard, but Galadriel seems cool, I guess. Some guy fell to earth in a comet but they havenât given him a name, so I assume heâs Jenova.
Curious how people here will find that show. I am reading the first LOTR book right now, but it wasnât because of this show. Still, my head is full of middle-earth and the idea of a new show is just appealing to me by default at this current time. Iâll almost take anything.
i know they have a literal billion dollar budget but itâs still wild to watch a tv show with more expensive looking production design than blockbuster movies
wake me when they make a farmer giles of ham 10 season series
my wife has been watching King of Stonks, a German crime-comedy about a publicly-traded company falsifying its books. itâs like watching someone elseâs nightmare as all the references and poignant moments completely go over my head.
the main character is the COO of the company, is being pursued by a woman who intend to âsteal millionsâ (short sell the company? is completely legal??). this woman ambushes the auditor tasked with verifying the companyâs latest quarterly reports, to exhort him to check really, really well. no threats, no leverage. iâm from the DAâs office, she claims, in a very believable and not-at-all completely disprovable by a single phone call kind of way. after the quarterly reports are signed off on, the CEO slams a giant solid-gold ring onto the auditorâs finger, delivered by a falcon.
the COO is threatened by the wacky CEOâs friendship with another kooky guy, thinks he will join the company and it would be bad. so he flies to Bangkok to plant cocaine on him at a restaurant while having dinner with him & watches as the cops arrive. you did this? youâll pay!! two scenes later that same friend is joining the company in a way thatâs bad for him.
thereâs a Letterman joke. he retired 7 years ago. unless it was suppose to be some other gap-toothed weasel whoâs popular on the German airwaves. maybe thereâs a backlog of yet-to-be-localised Late Show broadcasts that still beam out every weeknight
I feel a lot of the disconnect is from the dubbing, but I recommend it if you want to watch something made by people who watched a lot of Cronenburg and thought Dave was onto something with the direction of actors but too much icky gross wet special effects.
