Currently watching The Spectacular Spider-Man on DVD. Should have given it a shot way earlier. It's pretty much the most respectful and probably best on-screen adaptation of the famous comics. The characters are three-dimensional, the script is well-written, the animation is simplistic but very fluent and lively. Most of all, the relationships between characters all seem very natural. Many adaptations got this aspect wrong. I initially ignored the series because of the cutesy art-style. Well, never judge a book by its cover!

finishing season 7 of true blood in fast forward-- soooooooooo fucking booooooooring!!!

amazing how this turned to such crap. hbo pulled a showtime with this one-- endlessly squeezing a dried up tit until diarrhea came out.

Watching the UK House of Cards

Survivor

and Better Call Saul. Last night's episode was awesome.

Just finished watching: Pauly Shore Stands Alone......surprised how much I enjoyed this documentary.

I didn't like the third season of House of Cards as much as I did the first two ones.
More predictable, less entertaining.

penny dreadful season 1

very good first couple of first chapters-- looking forward to the rest.

would have been fantastic around halloween.

misfits season 2, starts out a bit standard, but gets a lot better

agents of shield is full of pretty people but it feels so derivative and just stays meh... hard to believe this is a joss whedon project.

yeah, I gave up on it after the first 2 episodes, heard nothing to say that wasn't right

I did not watch Agents of Shield because those nameless faceless automatons in the Marvel comics were never ever EVER interesting. who cares about the cannon fodder in a superhero world? Might as well make a show called the gardeners of Kree

lol i dont know what is kree or who are its gardeners and i haven't really read marvel comics in my life

but this show started with some whedon dna-- cute girl with mysterious superpowers, team of scoobies fighting monsters, compelling nerds, etc.

then i think it got stupid instead of heating up-- too many preposterous plot convolutions, too many characters to track and not enough emotional involvement in any of them, trying too hard to make connections to the marvel franchise, and whedon's trademark snappy dialogue is sorely lacking.

The Avengers got caught up in an inter-galactic war the Kree/Skrull war. these are the alien Kree and Skrull

oh... i watched guardians of the galaxy(didn't like it much) and those "kree" were there. zoe saldaña's immortal legs painted green. i get it now. i think...

I was reaching with a hyper Marvel comics nerd-esque barb at the decision to make a TV show based on characters who are inherently superfluous (agents of Shield)

I am too much of a nurd.

If Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. isn't doing it for you, thankfully we've got the Daredevil series on Netflix in just 3 weeks.

you might really like VENTURE BROS from cartoon network. it's all on netflix. hilarious!


never been much into superheroes-- it was whedon who had me laughing @ the avengers and thinking "this can be good". just killed my online netflix though so i'll have to wait for disc release (like i'm doing w/ house of cards).

but i just checked & rosario dawson + the readhead from true blood are going to be in it so-- i MUST have a look.

eta: oh and vincent d'onofrio! hell yes.

Oh, that redhead from True Blood IS in DD, guess this is going to be a Pg-13 series isn't? No nude scenes for her in this series.

ha ha ha!-- i wasn't expecting nudity-- i just like her



she pretty!

Has anyone on here seen The Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt yet? I haven't seen a single episode and just wondering if it's worth starting. Based off twitter and Facebook this show seems so divisive, some really love it, and some say they can't watch past the first few episodes cause it was terrible.
