True Detective

So I watched the season 2 premiere last night and while it was a solid effort with a lot going for it, they seemed to have put the mystery on hold for this episode to instead focus on our 3 miserable protagonists. There was some real nice cinematography going on and I loved the dirty and industrialized view of California that you so rarely see. The acting was top notch and the writing was HBO caliber and I suspect this will help reestablish the careers of Vince Vaughn and Colin Farrell and maybe even finally launch Taylor Kitsch into something worth a damn. Story wise, it was a little predictable and by saving the crime scene that brings the 3 protagonists together till the very end did help build intrigue for later episodes, but for an opener it didn't leave much to chew on besides guessing why all 3 main characters are so fucked up and who will be redeemed by the end of the series. I'm really hoping for a continuation of the Lovecraftian horror elements and themes from season 1 though, and we really didn't get that in last nights episode.

All that being said, there's a moment where Colin Farrell's character is beating the shit out of a 12 year old kid's dad right in front of him and says that he'll "butt fuck his dad with his moms headless corpse". To me that's worth the price of admission alone.

Looking forward to the next episode as I really have no idea what is going on at this point. I do like the feel of it so far. The main characters are all so ****ed up. Great soundtrack too. Nick Cave doing "All the gold in California" was a surprise. I remember hearing the original growing up but his version is so different. Don' t think they can top Season 1 but a good start overall.

Watched this the other night. Absolutely flawless.

One of the saddest things I've ever seen. I can't usually sit through films either but this was excellent.

Oh god, yes. And Lucy Lawless is in it? Yes.

I haven't watched any TV since January or something, so I'm catching up on my trashy pop culture by watching the last couple months of TMZ episodes. Classin' it up in this bitch. God I love this show. Too bad Max is gone.

Of course you like TMZ. It's just a bunch of camera whores being mean spirited douchebags toward annoying celebrities we already kind of hate. It's like the perfect job.

We make it into a drinking game where you take a drink every time you're annoyed. As you get drunker it becomes infinitely more entertaining and you drink far less.

See, I'd never get drunk, cause where you're at at the end of your post, I'm already there.

It's easy to get annoyed by the paparazzi's antics when you're as amazing as I am.
