  1. I am probably the only one who likes Brian Cox more than Hopkins over the test of time. Maybe because Hopkins went more of the cartoony villain route and it's been beaten over the head through TV/everyday references, but it's definitely more refined than what Sir Anthony gave us. Silence of the Lambs is a superior movie just based off of Ted Levine's performance, but I just like Manhunter's Lecter better. Mads probably has the best incarnation out of all three.
  2. How did the UFC 175 main card end up with Russell Doane on the main card and this one gets Hioki/Do Bronx?
  3.

  4. I am all aboard for Donnie though. He was good in Ransom and I've seen Southie.
  5. I enjoy Denzel I enjoy Paula Patton nude (not so much her Robert Z'Dar-esque chin/jawline, the wooden acting, and the wardrobe of a 9th grade lesbian art teacher she wore in the movie) I enjoy Bill Paxton chewing scenery Sadly, I didn't enjoy this movie. I wanted to.
  6. You're clearly the demographic this movie was aimed at though. That's shooting fish in a barrel that's been bolted down to the floor.
  7. I don't think Wahlberg did it in 2 Guns. Wahlberg TRIED and Wahlberg FAILED (also he was kinda corny). Denzel still got the better dialogue although the writers decided he shouldn't curse. Why pay the man $20 million to not be Denzel Washington? That movie had a whole lot wrong with it.
  8. Jim Alers is out of his 7/16 fight with Lucas Martins
  9. The problem with that is you can't outact/outshine Denzel in a movie. I think that's in his contract or something. It may be a U.S. federal law saying you cannot do so.
  10. Every character was thus waaaay too smart and analytical. I was willing to follow Rust being like that...and at first I was willing to go along with Marty being coincidentally a pretty emotionally astute guy. But then when Marty's wife would break out these fantastic takes on who he was and what he was doing...and then some random biker would start doing the same thing. and then his wife's mother would just totally nail what was going on in someone's head...and everyone would do this with the same voice. Nic Polizzatto's voice and with these beautiful perfect turns of phrase he just couldn't bear to leave in his journal. "I can see your soul at the edges of your eyes. It's corrosive, like acid" is when the show became what everyone not watching thought it was.
  11. I was going to say this in the actor/actress replacement thread, but this seems like the right place after only seeing a couple episodes. I can say that the producers should either put her resume at the end credits every show or the show itself is some convoluted, high budget audition tape for Maslany to get mainstream roles. It's one or the other. I am still gonna try to binge watch in the coming weeks, but I have a firm idea what I'm in for.
  12. I am still at the end of season 1/beginning of season 2. At some point, they interwove like three different storylines and the dialogue threw me the fuck off. I took a little break and now have to rewatch the season 1 finale.
  13. I think they're setting up Superman fighting them by his lonesome and him having to gain the trust of Bruce Wayne. There is no reason for them to work together in the first place.
  14. Blatant product placement in the trailer! (RDJ is a traitor because I thought he was a #TeamAndroid man)
  15. Kamegai has always been one of my favorite fighters to watch. He puts own flare on the whole Emanuel Augustus Drunken Master style.
  16. I can't imagine the Glory PPV being too pleasant for those on the east coast because this one ended a full 45 minutes after the usual time boxing and UFC PPVs end. Shit, probably 60 minutes because the UFC will promptly end at 12:30 a.m. EST if the main event goes short. Pretty decent show that just ran too long.
  17. Jeremy Botter hinting towards Overeem vs. Miocic. I'm thinking the show in Connecticut.
  18. Thomas de Almeida just smoked Caio Machado in round one with a 3 strike combo (liver shot did the job). This guy is definitely ready for the UFC, but the question will always be his wrestling. His slender frame may work to his advantage if he has balance like Aldo, but we need to see him against some real live bodies.
  19. I tried watching Jade when it came on Sundance or IFC like two or three weeks ago and lasted about 30 minutes. I wanted to see why people disliked it so much and got my answer pretty quickly.
  20. MMAjunkie ‏@MMAjunkie 10m Louis Gaudinot tests positive for diuretic, suspended six months by UFC officials http://dlvr.it/63qKXX via @MMAjunkie
  21. i'm happy too. There is World Series of Fighting and Glory PPV (also on Spike) this weekend so he will cover that. There are two UFCs next Saturday to make up for this weekend.
