TV/Movies Megathread

I tried to watch an old Doctor Who serial, and they're obviously too long for their stories to support--maybe they were meant to kill time for children once a week, like my Flash Gordon or Commando Cody serials, but even more repetitively.

In this one, the guy who controls this fictional world casts illusions that can only hurt you if you believe they're real.  The Doctor figures this out pretty quickly and explains it to his companions.  Their opponent continues to send illusions.  The Doctor continues to have to explain it.  This goes on for maybe about forty minutes till I go the fuck to bed.

Craig's movies (and the last Brosnan) have made me tired of the series.

Did Roger Moore's make you cheer?

[Eddie Teach]

Moore's films were a mixed bag.

[Darth Wagtaros]

He was good in Cannonball Run II

[Admiral Yi]

Moore's films were a mixed bag.

Great Bond girls, great production values, big stiff girly man in the lead.

Imagine how Connery would have done with Moore's budgets.

[Eddie Teach]

Moore's not so bad. He gets the silver.

Dark Knight Rises- Finally saw it for the first time. It was surprisingly good given the dissapointment of the second Nolan film.

Boys on the Run- My slog through Japanese drama continues. This one is interesting. The first episode or two pretty much cover the plot that is usually the entirity of a drama series (cliched guy likes girl but doesn't know what to do, gets his guts up, they like each other, there are drawbacks but ultimately yey). It then develops into pretty dark directions. Albeit with a J-drama bubblegum finish. hmm.... Its no kekkon dekinai but its good.

Moore's not so bad. He gets the silver.

I'd give the silver to Brosnan.

[Eddie Teach]

So the little girly man over the big one? 

[Admiral Yi]

Sure.  Less girly than Moore and more suave.

[The Brain]

I haven't seen any post-80s Bond, and I count myself lucky that I haven't. They suck ass.

[Eddie Teach]

Goldeneye was worth watching, you got to see Ned Stark play a bad guy. Also Famke was hott and Boris was funny.

[The Brain]

Browneney.
