    True Detective

    By the way, rewatch the beginning of episode 5 and look at Harrelson's face when Charles Lange mentions the Yellow King.

    True Detective

    I have a pretty plausible theory (again, not making any definitive claims). What if Ledoux was the red herring this whole time? There are also child abductions going on, but maybe those aren't even connected to the prostitute murders. Hart and Cohle go to Ledoux's place to investigate the Dora...

    True Detective

    I know a lot of viewers don't like "twists," but I wouldn't mind if it's revealed that Cohle went off the grid for several years to investigate Hart.

    New Tonight Show/Late Night Talk Show News/Review Thread

    Ferguson is charismatic but his talk show is boring as hell. Letterman has always been too cynical for my tastes, although he had a lot of good musical guests in the 90s. Conan is ok but his show isn't as bold as it used to be and I've started to find his interviews annoying.

    Guardians of the Galaxy (2014)

    Uh, Almost Human has been well-received with a solid fanbase. The problem is that each episode is like a low-budget movie and the ratings simply aren't high enough to justify budgetary demands.

    If Hart were the Yellow King in a metaphorical sense, what would that entail?

    True Detective

    It's just fun to ponder. No one knows the show's direction or endgame. Even to date, it's had this weird disconnected quality, although it's raised some interesting philosophical questions.

    True Detective

    I never posited any theories about Hart. At one point, I briefly thought he was a killer, but there may be some weird metaphysical stuff that we're not privy to yet. Like I said, the writers could just be fucking with us, but Hart could also be important beyond solving a crime.

    True Detective

    Are you just pretending to be dense? At some point, coincidences stop being coincidences and should be given serious consideration. This is like jurors ignoring a mountain of circumstantial evidence because the killer wasn't caught on cctv. The writers are either fucking with us or Hart is...

    Guardians of the Galaxy (2014)

    The trailer has received 7 million views in 24 hours so I think it'll do fine in theatres. As far as Dredd goes, I honestly have no clue why it did so poorly. It seemed like one of those fun action movies everyone would want to see on a Friday night.

    Banshee

    The only post-credit scene that's really important is the voicemail from Jason Hood in season one. It was in one of the early episodes.

    True Detective

    I think my favorite part of the show is their discussion at the tent revival. They basically borrowed this idea from Dawkins, but Cohle says, "Certain linguistic anthropologists think that religion is a language virus that rewrites pathways in the brain, dulls critical thinking." It's simple but...

    The Big Bad Console Thread - Sway your Station with an Xboner !

    Could Microsoft slash 100 bucks off their retail price while including the kinect? I have no idea how much those things cost to produce.

    Guardians of the Galaxy (2014)

    Vin Diesel is too small to play Drax. He's like 5'8''. Anyway, I think Star-Lord's new look is far superior to the 50s biker costume.

    The Big Bad Console Thread - Sway your Station with an Xboner !

    It's far too early for people to make these types of assessments. Microsoft's current prices are unreasonable, but that doesn't spell doom for the console. Neither console has an impressive library at the moment and the Xbox's games will look better in the near future. Everyone needs to calm down.

    IT Remake

    The True Detective director is taking on Stephen King's IT. I'm usually not fond of remakes, but it sounds like they'll do the book justice. Cary Fukunaga's 'It' Remake Is Alive, Well, and Ready for Us to Fantasy Cast

    The Big Bad Console Thread - Sway your Station with an Xboner !

    Uncharted's already been confirmed for PS 4. Crash Bandicoot was an immensely popular Playstation series so I could see why a revival would be of interest to a lot of people. I don't really see how GTA V being ported to PS 4 is significant either.

    Is Uncharted the best series of the last decade?

    I loved Assassin's Creed 3 and have no clue why so many hated it. The protagonist and setting were a breath of fresh air and it also introduced naval warfare. Anyway, all three Uncharted games provide movie quality storytelling and fun Prince of Persia-like platforming. The sequels didn't...

    It wouldn't surprise me if he was involved, but why are people so convinced? He appeared briefly in one episode and we don't know anything about him other than he hates Woody Harrelson.

    True Detective

    Why include all that stuff to fuel speculation? Those are A LOT of coincidences. He's just fucking with us at this point. He rejected the notion that the show is a "whodunit" but that's exactly what it is.

    True Detective

    There are plenty of details to suggest he's involved somehow: the spiral drawing in his house, his preventing Cohle from entering the abandoned school at the last minute, impulsively executing Ledoux, even his last name (thanks, Google).

    Justified (Season 5 - Jan 7th)

    This is probably my least favorite season. The storylines are all over the place and I don't like how the writers are ignoring Raylan's fatherhood when his family was a huge part of the show at one point.

    Metal Gear Solid V

    I hadn't played a Metal Gear game since MGS for Playstation, so I decided to check out Revengeance and my god, that was one of the worst games I've played in recent memory. There are no stealth elements. You just slash your way through this empty world as a high heel-wearing cyborg. . Please...

    I just realized Naughty Dog developed the Crash Bandicoon series. I only played the first one but it was one of my favorite PS games.

    I haven't owned a Sony console in over 12 years but I might get PS 4 for Uncharted 4 and The Last of Us 2. What are some good Xbox One exclusives?

    Banshee

    Wasn't a big fan of the last two episodes. They overdid it with the flashbacks and the fights didn't feel as epic. They were also considerably shorter.

    Halo gameplay has always been great, but the story felt like more of the same after Halo 2.

    Mass Effect 2 is damn near perfect, but 1 and 3 have some serious flaws that I think keep the series from being in the discussion.

    Is Uncharted the best series of the last decade?

    I know standards and one's frame of reference changes over time, but I was kind of surprised by how bad the first Uncharted looked. A lot of the textures were blurry and there was a lot more aliasing than I remember seeing in any 360 game. Uncharted 2 and 3 were huge steps up in the graphics...

    Is Uncharted the best series of the last decade?

    I had never played a PS 3 before so decided to borrow one from my sister along with all 3 Uncharted games. I didn't think I'd enjoy them that much, but these damn things are so engrossing. It took me a while to warm up to the first one, but I think I played the second installment all the way...

    Pan'Theon: Rise' of th'e Fal'Len - #1 Thread in MMO

    WoW had some difficult raids, but so what? At its core, it lacked suspense and I suspect that's what a lot of people miss about MMOs.
