your move on that one
probably just for the best that you stop mentioning education, like it even matters, period. in any thread.
my point is that your taste and culturing is fucking low-brow, shitty and populist. i don't care where you go to school.
you'd be a similarly idiotic philistine even if you were at harvard
i think it's more the impression that one builds after years of you spewing out top-ratings and 'BEST SHIT EVAH!' posts on all forms of entertainment and media. computer games, tv series, comic books, movies... the crap that you say is 'deep' and 'meaningful' speaks volumes. i'm not saying it's a particularly bad thing; in fact, the whole point of my posts over these last 3 pages have just been to make fun of your (relative) assertion that the walking dead is "deep". it's almost as if you've never delved into art and culture, period. i find it funny.
you're a jewish version of karl pilkington.
actually that's too kind... he's actually amusing

We should get a random Monet picture and discuss how deep it is. I think that would do us both some good.Uzique wrote:

i honestly think it would do you some good, yes
you have an arrogance and a cockiness about these things that is backed up by... absolutely zero knowledge or culture
you literally are the dictionary definition of a philistine
didn't they fight with the jews? everything about you is a paradox

i know, like how i watch things before I talk about how good/bad/not deep they are... it's a fucking paradox!Uzique wrote:

wow 3 pages and you still haven't got the point. think i've mentioned the word 'particular' about 4 times, too.
absolutely amazing. all that me, usmarine or anyone else have been talking about here is GENRE. MODE. MEDIUM.
it is incapable of being truly deep to any real degree by the very fact that it is populist, low-brow bullshit

do you really think i'm going to care about ANYTHING you post to me? make ANY meaningful responses on an internet forum to a guy who does nothing but argue for the sake of arguing?
i'm not typically a troll but goddamn this is an easy troll response

Knock it off, guys. This thread's about a TV show, not the mysteries of the universe.
I enjoyed it.
Can't wait for the next show.
Effects kind of sucked.

one thing i will say about it is that, cinematographically and directorially, the use of silence was really good
but i dont expect any less from darabont
also dislike the special effects / make-up style

it's odd seeing darabont direct something that's NOT about jail in the depression/pre-1940's era...
yes of course i watched it... i always intended to... i never criticized the show, only your shallow over-blown 'verdicts'
incidentally this tv series is probably the only thing that could tempt me to play the snorefest that is L4D2 again

also, since they went to such great lengths to portray visual, graphic and emotional 'realism'
why the fuck are all the zombies clothed exclusively in black? the last shot (i wont spoil) zooms out to reveal... every zombie in black
did the plague break out at a marilyn manson gig or something? fucking stupid

Noticed that. And the fact that they had only 2 officers set up at a roadblock? Doesn't seem very smart.Uzique wrote:

Maybe they had a limited budget
and they got a deal on black tee shirts

the military vehicles thing i can deal with, because a bunch of people with fingernails and teeth aren't gonna deal much damage... even superficially. maybe some blood smears and piss and shit would have grunged them up a bit and made them look as though they had been in the midst of it. perhaps the tv company had the tanks on short-term loan from the military
i can forgive the 2-officers thing because that whole sequence was obviously just a plot-device, a prologue for the proper story. basically filler material but needed nonetheless to get the real plot rolling.
also at times i felt like counting how many bullets he had loaded into that revolver at any one time... but i won't be a pedant.

Looking forward to seeing it myself in ~1 year when it crosses the ocean.. lol
Your thoughts, insights, and musings on this matter intrigue me
Yeah, and if you consciously do it, most films will be ruined for you.Uzique wrote:

So any streams up yet?

All bantering aside, how is the show?

I enjoyed the first episode. It seems like it is going to be a very character-driven show, even with all these zombie clusterfucks.
