It was ok. My disappointment came from expecting a silence of the lambs move and getting a supernatural movie (just like the article pointed out). It’s all well and good they went that way, but it wasn’t just the marketing that set those expectations. It was the first act of the movie. By the time you learn it was actually satan that was responsible for what was happening, it felt almost like a coo out, and didn’t feel true to the world they’d thrown us into. I did think Cage was incredible and very creepy. No complaints there.

I'm loving all of The Shield articles here lately. Shane is still Walton's best role. His performance from seasons 6 & 7 in particular is masterful. I'll say it again, this show is under appreciated, but those who know, know.

Great article. 100% agree. This, to me, is the greatest show of all time. I put its final two episodes up against any two episodes of any other show. Pure genius, beginning to end. I keep waiting for it to get it’s deserved recognition, but I think it will always go under appreciated.

Yeah, this was very obvious from the start. Both characters are awesome, so kudos to them for making it work. People's issues with Lost, and even a lot of King's novels is that they miss the point - that the characters are what matters. The plot is almost secondary.

I thought it was confirmed that Scott is making a sequel to Covenant? I'd love to see the conclusion to his saga, as I think Prometheus is leagues better than Romulus. To me, David and the engineers are far more interesting than the xenomorph.

Great album. It’s like sigh no more with a sprinkling of Delta. I’ll say, it’s a bit more contemplative and ‘quiet’ than I thought it would be, but not in a bad way. On par with The Lumineers Automatic, for me. Which is high praise.

100%. I love these movies - watch them annually. Other highlights from this trilogy: Gandalf and Galadriel's relationship & Frodo and Gollum's riddle scene. I think a lot of the big action scenes are also impressive - Goblin Town, Mirkwood, Smaug awakens, and the barrel riding scene. I know a lot of people dislike the CGI, and think these scenes are too over the top, but I disagree. I find them endlessly entertaining and well executed.

I saw an interview w Mann. He said once he let himself fall in love, it threw off his whole code. He only made that decision to go after Waigro bc he first let himself fall in love. So once he broke the code, all bets were off, without him realizing it
