I remember a review with Fuller during or just after Season 1 where he said Season 3 would be Red Dragon, and I totally bought that as the inevitable end of this season, so I'm wondering if he changed his mind or if he's just been all "imma long con these fans lol" since the beginning.

BRYAN FUCKING FULLER. This is just revenge for all the shows that he's had to cancel early over the years right? Just go totally bonkers in season two?

i actually didn't dig the ep that much, storytelling was nonexistent
― j., Saturday, 24 May 2014 22:31 (nine years ago) link
The storytelling was all in Mads Mikkelsen's face, which can somehow tell you a million things without actually moving a muscle. The moment when he realises that Will is going through with the plan to betray him is weirdly heartbreaking.

"Hannibal!... Where's Jack?""In the pantry."

i can get that, it's just, so many episodes have this very statuesque dramatic structure (if that artistic combo makes sense), and this one…
maybe i'm thinking of tracer hand's (mark s's?) legendary mise-en-scene
― j., Saturday, 24 May 2014 22:48 (nine years ago) link
I love the way Mads moves as violent Hannibal, lightning quick & precise

"The moment when he realises that Will is going through with the plan to betray him is weirdly heartbreaking."
He sniffs at Will and detects some trace of Abigail, this bit was so creepy.

Fuller's post-finale: http://www.avclub.com/article/hannibals-bryan-fuller-discusses-bloody-jaw-droppi-204896
he explains Bedelia's motivations a bit, also suggests that Beverly found Abigail in the basement before she was killed.

Glad Fuller doesn't like Hannibal Rising
― Insane Prince of False Binaries (Gukbe), Sunday, 25 May 2014 14:33 (nine years ago) link
plus the actual Hannibal origin story doesn't work given the temporal impossibility of Mads having escaped the Nazis on the eastern front

i spent ten hours of this show waiting for a payoff the episode seemed to promise, like, 'jack is stabbed but puts a door between himself and hannibal - what happens to jack next?'
'jack bleeds out'
great thanks show
― ♛ LIL UNIT ♛ (thomp), Monday, 26 May 2014 21:02 (nine years ago) link
*first episode
The "payoff" has been the crowning glory of this series, the last few episodes were very strong and that was easily the best conclusion of any series in recent times. Whatever you were waiting for was never going to arrive.

Goddamn Mads is good at what he does. He's invested so much energy into being subtle that the tiniest variation in volume or tone completely shakes the viewer up. Also his acting in the fight scene -- he does this thing at the end of every move, a kind of "there you go" -- this show rules.

I did wonder whether he was a dancer before (he moves like one) and now I know. :D

I miss this show. Very glad it got picked up for a third season, but damnit I miss this show.

Finally caught up on the last couple of episodes, pretty shocking and definitely the strongest run the show's had so far. Probably helps that I've finally abandoned ascribing ideas of logic and plausibility to the thing and started treating it like a fever dream.

Pitt was a revelation by the way, only seen him in BE before which didn't really indicate he had these kind of chops.

And I kind of hope everyone's dead and next season is a clean slate.

Just watched the second season in the course of a week and the post that most clearly sums up my experience is:
Oh yeah. I think one of the reasons this show works so well is that it doesn't assume that it's smarter than its audience, but assumes that its audience is really really smart and looking for fun.― Three Word Username, Monday, May 5, 2014 11:58 AM (2 months ago)
Very much looking forward to Mads and Scully solving crimes and eating people across the Australian outback in 2015
