TRUE DETECTIVE on hbo - Season Two

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

miami vice: the movie: the tv series

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

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.

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

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!"

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.

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.

Only know him from That 70s Show movie.

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

Colin Farrell & Tim Riggins?

YES PLEASE

biker gang meth head stash house shootout episode was already probably the most mannish non-mann thing ever, i'm fine w/ this

"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."

{LAUGH TRAK}

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)

hopefully Wang Chung will replace T Bone Burnett

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

for real...slash film will be reporting soon

Vince Vaughn & Colin Farrell

"You're drunk!"
"YOU'RE drunk."
*blood*
The end.

this cld be us but u playin

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

en bruges and miami vice are two of the finest films ever filmed (written to disc)

Eddie Murphy & Eddie Murphy (ii)

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

Jk

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?

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

he shd consider plagiarizing elmore leonard

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

there is no cap on that

i love justified but it def does not nail the leonard tone tho not sure its trying to

I'm hoping for plagiarism from

and

i hope Elliott Gould gets a role in this

better: Elliott Gould's cat from The Long Goodbye.

I'm sure Inherent Vice has that angle covered

it would be cool if the show got some older actors in the mix. i feel like Damages is a high water mark for modern cable drama casting, so many vets got to go on that show and do something unlike their previous roles and usually kill it.

crossover?

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

think it's more likely to be riffing on Polanski's Chinatown, Ellroy's L.A. Quartet, Ross Macdonald's Lew Archer novels, or even Chandler tbh

and Who Framed Roger Rabbit!

and crash

I don't think it's totally crazy to throw TCoL49 in with that bunch and my understanding is Inherent Vice is playing with a similar sorta frame but I haven't gotten to it yet.
