Tober Posted June 15, 2015 Posted June 15, 2015 What happened to the Game of Thrones threads? Why are our Game of Thrones threads being deleted? GoT discussions are banned from MW. There are plenty of other sites to go discuss it. Quote
renegadeleader1 Posted June 15, 2015 Posted June 15, 2015 Well looks like somebody over reacted to something they didn't like. Quote
GU-11 Posted June 15, 2015 Posted June 15, 2015 And here I was, thinking the threads were deleted so they can either be merged or given new threads.... Well, at least now we know. Quote
renegadeleader1 Posted June 15, 2015 Posted June 15, 2015 (edited) I think now would be a good time for a poll asking all of us if we want the GOT and ASOIAF threads returned or not. Edited June 15, 2015 by renegadeleader1 Quote
ErikElvis Posted June 15, 2015 Posted June 15, 2015 Well looks like somebody over reacted to something they didn't like. I agree. I mean c'mon now... Quote
Dobber Posted June 15, 2015 Posted June 15, 2015 From what I've learned it sounds like an extreme reaction to a THEORY. Jeez. Chris Quote
Sildani Posted June 15, 2015 Posted June 15, 2015 May be plenty of other places to discuss it, but nowhere I'm already a member, kinda know the people I'm talking to, and where I don't have to start all over again from Page 1. Le sigh. Quote
TangledThorns Posted June 15, 2015 Posted June 15, 2015 (edited) The GoT thread was deleted? Shame! Shame! Shame! Edited June 15, 2015 by TangledThorns Quote
Dynaman Posted June 21, 2015 Posted June 21, 2015 Anyone else watching Dark matter? So far it is OK, I would not mind if it were cancelled but will watch it each week. It has the potential to end up a good show - though some of the cast do not seem all that good, pretty faces that are supposed to be hardened killers? Defiance on the other hand, well I would still not cry if it were cancelled but it is off to a strong start. Have taped Killjoys but not watched it yet - hopefully it is goofy fun rather than just the goofy the ads portray it to be. Quote
peter Posted June 23, 2015 Posted June 23, 2015 Game of Thrones thread deleted?? Is that what happened? I started one today and it's gone. I've been staying away from them until I watched all of season 5 this past weekend and really looked forward to diving into the thread here to chat with you guys about it. So, what exactly happened? Quote
azrael Posted June 23, 2015 Posted June 23, 2015 So, what exactly happened? http://www.macrossworld.com/mwf/index.php?showtopic=42672&p=1205153 Quote
peter Posted June 23, 2015 Posted June 23, 2015 http://www.macrossworld.com/mwf/index.php?showtopic=42672&p=1205153 Yup, just read the thread, haven't read the books so I ought be safe, haha! Quote
TangledThorns Posted June 24, 2015 Posted June 24, 2015 (edited) My post is trying not to be political but as you may be aware the Confederate Flag is suddenly mucho politically incorrect. So much so that Warner Bros. pulled licenses for the General Lee from the Dukes of Hazzard toys and are no long allowed to be made because of the flag on the car's roof. When I read that this morning I went straight to Amazon to buy a 1:18 diecast model of the General Lee for $95. A few hours later and I see they are now at almost $300! I only wish I bought a few more http://www.amazon.com/Dodge-Charger-General-Dukes-Hazzard/dp/B003ZC3TUI/ref=cm_cr_pr_product_top?ie=UTF8 http://www.vulture.com/2015/06/dukes-hazzard-confederate-flag-warner-bros-stop-licensing.html Edited June 24, 2015 by TangledThorns Quote

Tking22 Posted July 6, 2015 Author Posted July 6, 2015 So of course Hannibal, aka the best show on television in years, gets cancelled, and yet crappy Walking Dead gets an entire spinoff? Like a great man once said... I had to vent, this news hurts my insides. Quote
Duke Togo Posted July 6, 2015 Posted July 6, 2015 So of course Hannibal, aka the best show on television in years... Wait wait, what? Quote
Tking22 Posted July 6, 2015 Author Posted July 6, 2015 Wait wait, what? For me, nothing has come close to the quality of Hannibal in recent memory. Nothing can touch it's cinematography, it's dialogue, it's incredible performances, you can watch a single episode three times in a row and still miss some of the tiny little nuances in the script. It was perfect all around, Mads Mikkelsen is by far my favorite man to step into the role of Hannibal, Hopkins will always hold a special place in my heart, but Mads was absolutely born for this role, he is electrifying in every scene he is in, and now, we'll never get the conclusion we deserve, and next season was supossed to cast Clarice. Hannibal had a rough start, it was in a bad time slot, the ratings never really took off, despite overwhelming critical acclaim, a damn shame, hopefully Netflix or Amazon Prime can save it. Quote
Mr March Posted July 6, 2015 Posted July 6, 2015 Hannibal was quite good for what it was; a broadcast TV show. But it was still a broadcast show from a broadcast network, even as much as it tried to break the mold. I think I've just been spoiled by now over a decade of specialty cable shows from AMC, FX, Showtime, HBO, etc. I find it difficult now to go back and try watching broadcast shows with all their inherent limitations due to broadcast standards.Still, it's sad to see a show like Hannibal go. To some extent, it was fighting the good fight. Quote

Still, it's sad to see a show like Hannibal go. To some extent, it was fighting the good fight. I personally felt Hannibal was better then Breaking Bad, Better Call Saul, even Fargo. For me personally, Hannibal just hit all the right spots, it topped True Detective, Orange is the New Black, even heavy hitters that sit at the top of my all time favorite TV like The Wire and Sopranos were being considered for a mental bump down compared to Hannibal, it was just far too good. It pains me to see it go, but hopefully someone will save it, if Mindy Project and other crap can get saved Hannibal needs to be saved too, we JUST got to the Red Dragon storyline, everything was moving along so well. I haven't been this heart broken about a show in a while, I am going to truly savor the rest of Season 3. Edited July 6, 2015 by Tking22 Quote

EXO Posted July 7, 2015 Posted July 7, 2015 It's not X-Files until they shine those flashlights into the screen! Oh wait... 30 secs in... it's X-Files. That was cutting it close.... Quote

Mog Posted July 14, 2015 Posted July 14, 2015 Anyone else watching Mr. Robot? The pilot and second episode were pretty damn good. There was some clunky dialogue and a few scenes that were a bit much in the third episode. But I'm curious to see how this series plays out. Plus, those extended intro scenes so far have been extremely well done. Quote
Mr March Posted July 14, 2015 Posted July 14, 2015 I've actually had the Mr Robot series recommended to me by several folks. I've not watched as yet, but I gotta check out what everyone is so excited about it. Quote
TangledThorns Posted July 14, 2015 Posted July 14, 2015 this is too funny I saw it but didn't get Cranston's response. Quote
technoblue Posted July 14, 2015 Posted July 14, 2015 Did anyone else see the Heroes Reborn teaser? I wanted to snub it, but I ended up liking it. I guess I'm soft, but my fear is that this will go the same way as the original and the momentum will only last one season. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4FLHB2zB_cA Quote
Dynaman Posted July 14, 2015 Posted July 14, 2015 I love Danger Mouse! Inspector Gadget should have had the DM team update THEIR theme song. As for Heroes Reborn, I thought it was a miniseries this time around? Quote

Just started watching a new episode of "Rizzoli and Issle" on TNT and did not start well. Edited July 15, 2015 by miles316 Quote
Duke Togo Posted July 15, 2015 Posted July 15, 2015 (edited) A lesser announcement from SDCC: Netflix has been humping this, and recently made the original show available for streaming. I don't really care about this new show, but I'm happy to see they kept the theme song. Edited July 15, 2015 by Duke Togo Quote

You're right! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heroes_Reborn_%28miniseries%29 That's something of a relief and I will be tuning in, but I'm still a little worried... Quote
505thAirborne Posted July 17, 2015 Posted July 17, 2015 Haven't seen house of cards yet, although Kevin Spacey is in it, so it has to be pretty damn good. I watched a mini-marathon of AMC's HUMANS last week, I must admit that I liked it alot and am looking forward to the next episode! Quote
