finally in the end  helping the only family he had left, Jesse.

Eh, you do remember the scene at Gretchen and Elliott's house?

I wonder what the story arc will be of the new Deadwood movie.

The Entourage movie seems to have gone out with a whimper.  I'm always a little surprised when movies that get advertised on TV totally fail at the box office.

Just watched The Imitation Game.

If you already know the Ultra story, and that Turing was gay, this movie doesn't add very much.

Yeah, I thought it was a pretty predictable Oscar bait flick. They also gloss over the most dramatic part of his life, when he is led to suicide.

"Time after Time" (loved that film as a kid), series in the works.

Would feel better about it if it was some cable/VOD platform doing it instead of ABC, but well. I hope it's not some shitty procedural where the guy can travel in time.

A thoroughly despicable character

Spoken like somebody who doesn't like The Godfather.  ;)

Walt is pretty sympathetic at first, but he does test the depths pretty extensively. I don't think he's ever completely rotten though.

I like The Godfather but could never get into Breaking Bad. I didn't find Walt sympathetic at all.

Same for me, couldn't get past the 2nd season.

Turbo Kid- A science fiction film from 2015. In the dark post-apocalyptic future of 1997 the BMX is king....wait what?
A very bloody 80s style film.
Its interesting that this 80s style is so popular lately. I have always had a bit of a fascination with this kind of very 80s lost world stuff....I can't quite put it into words. It increasingly seems I'm really not alone.
Its amusing.

People that were in their teens during the 80s are now in their 40s, and have become gatekeepers.

I hope they do something better with her character this time around:

Venture brothers will come on tonight after a two year hiatus.  8 new episodes!  That's like 4 a year!
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

Raz is right. -MadImmortalMan March of 2017
