I love Friedkin but I dunno if his strengths would really be best-served in a longform TV series

― Οὖτις - i get this but i kinda think this show is an exception, to live and die in l.a. stretched out into episodic form could totally be a season of true detective.

friedkin did an episode of csi

there were an unprecedented number of crowd scenes

hopefully Wang Chung will replace T Bone Burnett

Along with Farrell, Taylor Kitsch is being floated. RIGGINS!*

(I just like to say "Riggins!" when possible. I'm not exactly endorsing him being cast.)

i'll watch it for sure, but when i think about the problems of the td script i don't think of william friedkin as the guy who can navigate us past them

da croupier, Friday, 11 July 2014 20:30 (nine years ago) link

i guess i should say "i would watch it for sure" as we're just working with a bit of cryptic confusion in an interview

da croupier, Friday, 11 July 2014 20:32 (nine years ago) link

we're faced with the very real prospect of COLIN FARRELL starring in the next season and you're worried about Friedkin maybe directing a later season?

some dude, Friday, 11 July 2014 23:01 (nine years ago) link

I won't watch anything with colin farrell in it, in case that wasn't clear

Οὖτις, Friday, 11 July 2014 23:02 (nine years ago) link

If you can't cast ugly people in a show like this, where can you cast them anymore?

Johnny Fever, Friday, 11 July 2014 23:04 (nine years ago) link

i'm cool with colin farrell starring in this television show

colin's done some fine work, just been in a lot of bad movies

da croupier, Friday, 11 July 2014 23:08 (nine years ago) link

i mean there are reports that there are 4 leads and maybe there's still a heavy that hasn't been announced, but if the biggest star in the show goes from MM to CF that's kind of a downgrade just in starpower, never mind that i wouldn't put In Bruges or whatever CF's best performance is up against any of MM's best roles.

some dude, Friday, 11 July 2014 23:10 (nine years ago) link

my heart is def not a-flutter imagining colin farrell doing rust cohle monologues but a) wasn't exactly jonesing for Mateo to speak them either before he did and b) no reason to assume Colin would be asked to play a knock-off rust cohle anyway

da croupier, Friday, 11 July 2014 23:12 (nine years ago) link

I'd be down with Farrell as long as it's a McConaghey-like performance where everyone's going, "Wow, this is amazing, completely unlike any acting I've ever seen before from Colin Farrell!"

pplains, Friday, 11 July 2014 23:14 (nine years ago) link

i will say if Farrell was being asked to replace Mateo as Rust Cohle in True Detective: Legacy I'd be unenthusiastic. And that's basically the situation William Friedkin would be in, respective to Fukunaga.

da croupier, Friday, 11 July 2014 23:19 (nine years ago) link

I don't think McConaghey's performance as Rust was unlike anything he'd done before, it was pretty close to his more recent roles in Mud, Killer Joe, etc.

Οὖτις, Friday, 11 July 2014 23:31 (nine years ago) link

Only know him from That 70s Show movie.

pplains, Friday, 11 July 2014 23:31 (nine years ago) link

I polled his most recent stuff but can't find the thread bah

Farrell would be fine, I'm sure. Much more worried about Riggins tbh.

the more i think about this the more TD needs at least one lead every season with CHEERS on the resume

"You know, humans are things that labor under the illusion of having a self; an accretion of sensory, experience and feeling, programmed with total assurance that we are each somebody, when in fact everybody is nobody."

"Well if there's anybody who should be an expert on being a nobody, it's you, Cliff."

Cheers was filmed before a live studio audience >:(

See, the preacher, he encourages your capacity for illusion. Then he tells you it's a fucking virtue. Always a buck to be had doing that, and it's such a desperate sense of entitlement, isn't it?

I mean, touché.

Would watch if Farrell's sidekick was Rhea Perlman (as Carla Tortelli)

Walter Galt, Monday, 14 July 2014 14:00 (nine years ago) link

hopefully Wang Chung will replace T Bone Burnett

Also for the O Brother, Where Art Thou? miniseries.

the guy could well be a total d-bag but i'm not really following m@x there. what does that pull quote even mean? he's condescending people on wifi? wha?

bnw, Friday, 8 August 2014 19:56 (nine years ago) link

yeah, that article could have used a few sentences of context. I think Nikki Pizza was responding to criticism about his female characters or something. Good to know he has a woman friend tho.

Have they announced yet which authors will plagarized from in season 2?

well it's set in California and presumably the subject is conspiracies so I'll assume Pynchon is the starting place right

Panda Friend (Clay), Friday, 8 August 2014 20:22 (nine years ago) link

he shd consider plagiarizing elmore leonard

lag∞n, Friday, 8 August 2014 20:31 (nine years ago) link

there's already a prestigious television show that does that tho

Panda Friend (Clay), Friday, 8 August 2014 20:33 (nine years ago) link

there is no cap on that
