I think I'm the only person on earth who absolutely hated Mad men. I really miss a show called Carnivale from a few years back though.

Kidding, dunno nothing about this show. Only that it features that woman. And man, what-a-features.
They really didn't have a choice. It was expensive as hell despite the critical acclaim.Ambalon said:I know what you mean. I was so disappointed when they canceled Rome.

Mad Men took a little while to grow on me, or for me to become attached to the characters enough to be really interested in what happened to them. I like it a lot now. As for Carnivale, there are some fervent devotees to that show. I'd give it a chance but I think it only had one season, right? It'd be too disappointing to love it, knowing that I'll only have like 8-12 episodes.Teofish said:
Mrs. D: Eeerrrrhmmm! Firefly!!! And it had two. Problem was it was planned to run for four, but since they were told before filming season two started it was being cancelled after that they had to whove three seasons worth of story into one to get proper closure. So the last season felt rather stressed and rushed and ended up omitting a lot of the smaller subplots.
My problem with Mad men is that I thoroughly despise every single major character, as well as the entire industry that is the backdrop of the series. So watching it just becomes a fist-clenching ragefest for me.

Not to mention historically speaking it'd just become all about Octavian/Augustus after season two.RoboSenshi said:They really didn't have a choice. It was expensive as hell despite the critical acclaim.Ambalon said:I know what you mean. I was so disappointed when they canceled Rome.

I thought of Firefly actually when I was writing that post. I still watched it despite it having already been cancelled by the time I started. Ambalon is right. Some of these shows only have cult followings, though sizeable, that are not large enough to support them. Meanwhile, Pawn Stars, Toddlers in Tiaras, Mike and Molly and such ****e get to live on. No, there is no justice in this world.Teofish said:

I pissed myself off today. Had to finish **** by six but I couldn't bring myself to start 30 minutes before that. Obviously I didn't finish it in time. 5 hours later, I still haven't achieved much because I don't know how to continue and my brain just won't think properly.
And I have to do a presentation (which I previously failed) tomorrow too. Which I also have not prepared adequately and I've made myself sick with nerves again. I get nervous because I'm unprepared, I'm unprepared because I'm a ****ing twat.
Goddamnit.

There's actually been talk of Netflix reviving Firefly again like they did Arrested development. Though to be honest I'm kind of scared they'll ruin it.Mrs. Dryvus said:
After all this time?

Yeah. Main problem would be everyone suddenly looking ten years older.Cyborg Eastern European said:
More distracting than I'd have though.
Legolas just looks funny in The Hobbit.

Still haven't seen. Can't do three hours without smoke break so waiting for the DVD release. Hate cinemas anyway.

It's nice and fun. Don't know about you but we had a break about halfway through.
Also: 3D and HFR really look...interesting. Though, I'm not sure if it was just me and the power of suggestion, or the picture actually was smoother.
Maybe...higher expectations due to...certain...events?
Already checked, they don't do that here. And I forgot about the immense difficulty in finding it in regular 2D. I know I'm weird about it. But when I watch a film I want to watch it, not be inside it.Cyborg Eastern European said:
