TV/Movies Megathread

[Sheilbh]

You should watch the TV show (all of them) because it's wonderful.

But the film can be enjoyed on its own. If you've seen the TV it's kind of nice to see Alan get redemption of some type because he's not as awful in it as he is in the TV.

Das Boot sucks.

It's very good, but overrated.  Don't tell any Euros that, though.

Quick film choice question:

'Downfall' or 'Man in a White Suit' (Alex Guiness)  ?

[CountDeMoney]

Downfall, Downfall, Downfall.

Unless you're in the mood for a comedy, then Man in a White Suit.

But Downfall should be mandatory Languish viewing, if only for Hitler memes.

[Ed Anger]

Downfall. Don't be a Jodl.

[Sheilbh]

I'm going to say Man in the White Suit just to provide some balance.

But that's a solid choice you've got

[CountDeMoney]

Downfall. Don't be a Jodl.

Watch, numbnuts winds up picking "Roman Holiday."

So after Game of Thrones I'm flipping channels on cable, and I see there's a movie playing called Pacific Rim.

Is it any good?

[Ed Anger]

Downfall. Don't be a Jodl.

Watch, numbnuts winds up picking "Roman Holiday."

Audrey Hepburn.

Nah, he'll end up with Zardoz.

[Josephus]

noticed a couple Son of Anarchies in Pacific Rim.

[Eddie Teach]

Downfall. Don't be a Jodl.

Watch, numbnuts winds up picking "Roman Holiday."

Nothing wrong with Roman Holiday.

I think Salem has lots of potential for a tv series on a small network.  It lacks budget for now and it shows, but the acting is quite decent, and there's actually an intrigue there.

Do you think in three hundred years there'll be movies and TV shows about a cabal of telegenic Jews who control international finance?

[Norgy]

I've rewatched a few episodes of Rome this Easter. Atia... oh, Atia. 

Also, The Red Road from Sundance Networks seems intriguing.
