Maybe I'm just a bit grumpy at the moment, or maybe I've seen too much TV this year and am looking for something different.<br> <br>If anything, I'd say the biggest difference from the film is that in the series you have a bunch of criminal "force of nature baddasses" (a bit like the bad guy from No Country?), whereas in the film you had a bunch of bunglers and doomed idiots. But I definitely need to go back and watch the movie again.</p></blockquote>Ja - good point. Thats mostly what Ive liked about my favourite Coen brothers movies - idiots and how poorly they manage a bad situation leading to further escalation.<br>I liked the first season but I wasnt convinced by Martin Freeman who almost seemed a bit slapstick-isch to me at times. It probably doesnt help that William H Macy had played the role so well and evoked so many negative emotions out of me.

<p>Foxtel have finally picked up the rights to "Mr Robot" so i watched the first episode on the weekend. Very interesting, i like it. I hope it goes somewhere</p>

You'd think so, although it is hard to work out a situation that long after that there'd be that call, unless <br><br>
[Spoiler]my theory is Nick fell on him, zombies started munching then they got distracted (given how many half eaten bodies you see) and left Glen briefly, long enough for him to get into the dumpster that is again surroundef, and they've only just come into range for the walkie-talkie. Cos if he was bitten it has been a day or so? [/spoiler] -
Yea there are 2 eps left for this year, they really need to up thier game.

<p>Loved that show. Really good, stick with it. One of the best things I've watched in ages. Also its adored by IT types as its one of the only shows to actually show accurate hack-cody-stuff (apparently)</p> -
<p>yea, that'll wooosh me completely, but if it seems legit, then no worries....</p>

<p>Last night i watched the first episode of something called "Into the Badlands" a bunch of nobodies and that bloke from Shortland St (eat a dick jegga). I think it's supposed to be set in some post-apocalyptic future where there are no guns, just deadly dudes with swords. The fight scenes look fucking fantastic, and i saw some fatalities i have never seen before.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Some hot chicks, no nudity though. The acting is awful, the premise is, well, strained, but i'll probably watch next week to see if there is actually a story, and to see some more dudes get killed stylishly.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>But it looks like it is going to suck. </p> -

<p>I've seen worse...</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Ash vs Evil Dead, I so wanted to like this, but after 2 eps just couldn't get into it.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Apparently filmed in Auckland?</p> -
Well the theories about Glenn were sorted out, and all sorts of cliffhangers last night too. I think they should feed the dick who tried to climb over the wall to the walkers . He has a death wish anyway.<br><br>
I don't think Morgan has learned that you don't mess with Carol yet. -

Yeah filmed in Auckland , lots of xena Hercules crew apparently . I thought it was a bit ordinary too, having Lucy lawless in it was the final straw though . -

<p>Not bad at all but less so if you're a fan of the books as they miss out some important tuff in the interest of fitting the longer story into the shorter format. However good adaptation and production values for a BBC series that isn't Downton Bloody Abbey.</p>
