Sorry. I ****ed up.

Yeah, I'm into season 2 thus far. I didn't really enjoy season 1 as much as most.

I still have a hard time believing Vaughn and McAdams in those roles. Beginnings are still scrambled but coming together. Taylor Kitsch is knocking his role out of the park IMO. Very well acted.

I'm reserving my judgement so far on Riggins but up to this point he's still....well, Riggins.

I must have missed this part.

Taylor Kitsch has always been better than his roles - John Carter, Gambit, and the guy in Battleship just didn't give him much to work with. He's really making me believe this character, and I have high hopes for him as the season goes on.

Vince Vaughn, on the other hand, is a disaster, and he's diminishing the whole show.

I think we're going to see the same thing with the potency / parent-dynamic themes that we're seeing play out in this incarnation of TD.

Won't have any relevance into the plot, but is meant to get us to think and reflect on our own lives / society.

'Hamas' Jenkins 07-01-2015 03:56 PM

I don't see Vaughn's acting as all that problematic. Kitsch, I think, is actually overacting, trying too hard to be intense, PTSD-guy. McAdams has done a really good job, and Farrell is consistently excellent.

Hootie 07-01-2015 04:20 PM

Maybe this role will get Kitsch a few more big budget movies he can flop !

Aries Walker 07-01-2015 04:43 PM

Aim high, Taylor! Aim high!

Chekhov's Gun isn't a principal everybody believes in. Woody put it best at the end, "We were never going to get 'em all."

Woody and MM made that show amazing. The actual story? Meh. It was certainly weak in some areas.

Aries Walker 07-01-2015 05:19 PM

Yeah, underneath it all it was Dirty Harry - a lot of disenchanted-cop psychology while the chase for a crazed loner takes its toll on personal lives - and it was a little disappointing when all of the King in Yellow talk turned out to be just babbled nonsense. The genius, though, was in the telling - the setting, the direction, and the performances.

Also, unsurprisingly, Alexandra Daddario said her phone hasn't stopped ringing since HBO aired episode 2.
