Re: Gladiator 2

I've seen the original, but don't remember it. Do you need to rewatch the original to be able to fully enjoy this film? Are there references to the original films or characters that you won't...

Re: The Lincoln Lawyer series

Do we have any other fans of the books? I'd be interested in others thoughts on whether you all feel the way the character is portrayed in the series is the same, or different, than in the novels,...

Re: The Lincoln Lawyer series

I'm a fan of the Michael Connelly books, who wrote the novels upon which the series, and an earlier movie, was based. I like the series. I think it's entertaining and it does a good job emulating the...

The Rockford Files vs Magnum PI

Re: The Rockford Files vs Magnum PI

This is not a close call. "Rockford Files" is the best show of its type that has been made, in my opinion.

The series is very different. Most of the movies were adaptations of the novels, while the series was not. There was also an additional movie with Chris Pines as Jack Ryan called Jack Ryan: Shadow...

Re: The Penguin (Colin Farrell) Max

Having re-read your posts, it does appear that my initial impression of your arguments were accurate, that you were speaking in support of John's points. The particular objection is related to...

He certainly is, but I'm speaking to the larger issue in general, which his comment speaks to. It could be that I am misunderstanding your point of view though. Is it that you think the show is too...

Re: The Penguin (Colin Farrell) Max

I've seen all of the episodes. To be honest, I didn't even notice this aspect of the story until you pointed it out. It wasn't a concern for me at all. There is a lot of violence directed against men...

FilmBuff, I am sorry to hear that you have been the victim of gender-driven violent crime. I hope whoever did that to you has been held accountable, and that that kind of thing never happens to you...

FilmBuff, I am so sorry to hear of these struggles that you are going through. Stories like yours are part of the reason that I went into a career in public service. Everyone's situation is unique,...

While I respect John's opinion, and he is welcome to decline any project that he wants to for any reason, I personally think this is an incredibly stupid reason to not participate in this series. It...

This isn't true. Kevin Costner stated that they were in negotiations for Seasons 6 and 7 and the reason that it didn't happen was that they couldn't agree on the terms. Any continuation of...

Re: YELLOWSTONE (Paramount Network)

Special Ops: Lioness is good, but I think that there are many other shows in the genre that are much better, such as "Homeland" and "The Americans", while with "Yellowstone", I feel like it is the...

YELLOWSTONE (Paramount Network)

Re: YELLOWSTONE (Paramount Network)

The whole situation with "Yellowstone" is incredibly sad. It's ending prematurely, in large part because Kevin Costner chose to do "Horizon", which has unfortunately been both a critical and...

Re: Matlock (2024)

I agree. Kathy Bates is great in this role. The rest of the show is not really at the level of her performance. I have yet to really see much that really distinguishes this show from any other more...

Re: Curb Your Enthusiasm

I don't think there is really a controversy with that. How the game works is the last person pointed to is the one who is chosen, so Jeff is right that if Larry was selected at the end of the game,...

Larry. As Susie said, he is healthy and thin, and Jeff is obese and likely unhealthy (he had a heart attack during one of the seasons of the show). Kidney health is multi-factorial and is likely...

Re: Curb Your Enthusiasm

I don't have any additional thoughts. Does anyone else have any thoughts on this scenario, should Larry have moved to the front seat, or is it okay that he didn't, and why?

I don't know how Larry would have reacted actually. I'm not sure, but I think that wasn't the original question. The original question was whether he should have moved to the front seat, which...

Re: Curb Your Enthusiasm

I feel like it was fine for Larry to be in the back seat. He was already there and they were pretty close to their destination. At the same time, it was Ben Stiller's car and if someone was driving...

For those that gave up on watching Season 2, I think this season has had the two best episodes of the show in the last couple of weeks. It's still a shell of its former self and I don't think it was...

Re: The Old Man (Jeff Bridges)

This storyline has been much weaker than the first season. It genuinely feels like they are telling a related, but completely different, story.
