    "Wool" series by Hugh Howey...

    reading the books after the omnibus seems to me like watching the new star wars movies. you kinda know where it's heading. well, just started first shift today, so i could be completely wrong about this

    Deadwood

    such a great show, watched it 3 times already, too bad they didnt finish it. i guess without this show i would have never watched justified ... olyphant FTW.

    The Walking Dead

    QFT. This and the overly long chase scene (although i liked how she hid behind the door leaving him with the mob).

    The Walking Dead

    when asian guy and hot chick started making out while on watch i was definitely expecting a surprise headshot on either or both of them. if they keep up the slow pace this is the last season for me.

    Wheel of Time series

    While probably way better than Jordan could have done, I was kinda disappointed. Normally I really like descriptive battle scenes with lots of surprises (read Stackpoles DragonCrown War Trilogy!!!) but Sandersons narrative was kinda bland most of the time, with admittedly a few awesome scenes...

    Winter 2013 Anime Thread

    for me it's more of a rollercoaster, some episodes are great, others not so much. overall still nice. i didn't think it was very predictable either. any chance that aikas death was faked? anyone watching senyuu? best 3 minutes of the week

    The Walking Dead

    on the other hand, what the fuck are they doing all day long? there is no tv, they obviously dont hunt or grow stuff. i would go berserk in the yard, just to pass the time.

    "Legit" starring Jim Jefferies, DJ Qualls, that guy from the Daily show.

    not only is this un-terrible, this is comedy gold ... and whats up with the chick testifying behind the screen and then walking her through the courtroom ... i think i woke the neighbors laughing

    The Walking Dead

    sorry if this was asked before: is the lori-ghost-thing from the comicbooks or an invention of the showwriters? and whats up with almost all the rifles having scopes, and none of the people are using them, especially the governor (with the super awesome steyr aug), such a disappointment his...

    Skyfall

    one point in defense of the movie since so many people seem to find the scene with CNN in the hut/beach bar implausible: he is in turkey on a beach. turkey is a NATO country and one of the most european countrys in the middle east (hell, it's even supposed to join the EU) of course they have...

    Skyfall

    tried to watch this movie last night, didn't have any expectations, still didn't make it completely through the movie. story was too boring and the details way to annoying. i wish they would ban everything to do with computers from movies. remote decrypting a hard disk using the computer in M's...

    January Book of the Month: Old Man's War by John Scalzi

    finished it in 2 sessions, enjoyed the story a lot, homage to starship troopers. all the aliens were fine, you got to meet some strange things out there. at first i found his technique of those hard, fast cuts disturbing, but after a while it gave the story an interesting pace. checking out...

    Films off the beaten path

    I am not a Hipsterif you like indie singer/songwriter music i think you're gonna dig this. If not, i still recommend this. i thought the main character and his sisters were awesome. Celeste and Jesse foreverthough starring rashida jones and andy samberg it's not a comedy, so dont expect any SNL...

    Banshee

    liked the first episode, thought the 2nd episode was kinda meh, but the 3rd ep was great. at first i was thinking wtf every time the sheriff pulled some stupid shit, but then he was 15 years behind bars, i guess that can really fuck you up anyone taking bets on deva being his daugther?

    Looking for Mature Anime/Manga series recommendations

    if you liked ninja scroll, get basilisk (which is basically the same story). if you can get an uncut/uncencsored version of fist of the north star watch it. imho stay away from fate/zero, fma, and some of the other popular series. i would not say it's mature anime. if you're not already sick...

    Wheel of Time series

    no, they change only for different chapters. compared to other audiobooks WoT isnt that great, the male voice is better than the female though, so it's probably a good thing so many chapters are from a male perspective. (offtopic: if you want to listen to a really great audiobook get the black...

    The Black Company

    what I find so fascinating is the fact that these books are almost 30 years old, and still read like something written a year ago. compare Black Company to any other 80ies Fantasy novel (hell take early WoT or Sword of Truth) and you realize what a masterpiece this really is.

    Wheel of Time series

    Path of Daggers was quite hard on me too. But I'm glad I stuck to it. After book 11 (when Sanderson takes over) it gets better by far. Now i actually look forward to chapters with Egwene, Rand, and even Nynaeve. Until Book 11 the only thing I really read without skipping was chapters about Matt...
