Red Riding (spoilers)
The White Lady
pretty standard stuff with storylines, characters and plot twists I've
seen many times before. The rich business man with a taste for rape
and violence is as much of a cliche as the corrupt copper behing
handed all - yes ALL- of the evidence of corruption. The first hour
really, really dragged on. Andrew Garfield was too mumbly and Sean
Bean wasn't sexy or evil enough. In summary: solid unexceptional
drama. Which is a pity as you saw glimpses, particularly in one of the
final shots of the main character's face at the begininng then at the
end of the course of events, of the probable true quality of the
source material. I haven't read the books but I get the impression
that this film hasn't done them justice. Maybe we've just had
gritty-realism overload. Bring on part 2.

Me too and it seems to be spreading - everytime I hear about the
latest great American drama I decide it's going to get on my nerves
before it's even begun. Even The Shield is starting to grate - stop
explaining the plot to each other all the fucking time! We know about
the fucking Armenian money train and Lem! We fucking watched it!
Still, what is life if you're not going to take a few risks?
Anything's got to be better than forever downloading old, obscure
crap.
The dog from that film you saw
american series are fine sometimes - i watch heroes, fringe - never got
into lost for some reason and now i don't want to as there would be hundreds
of hours to catch up with.
it's the uk stuff that leaves me cold - i dread having to sit through an
episode of midsomer murders or a touch of frost.

Nobody deserves THAT (except Robson Green).
Life on Mars, The Devil's Whore, Dead Set, Boy A, Survivors (ha! just
joking - there is actually a second series on the way!!)....the list
is minuscule.

Agreed - (apart from the sexy bit) although it's about the first thing I've
liked watching him in. I believe the producers toned some stuff down to make
it a little more upbeat.
I don't watch many TV dramas so I can't comment on others but I thought this
LOOKED superb. It was so cold and grey I put the fire on. That skinny cop
was a nasty cunt - he looked like an English version of Reggie Nalder.
I was relieved that they didn't go overboard with the period music.
I enjoyed it but I think I'll probably like it even more in context with the
next two.

I managed to see those but I couldn't be bothered with the last two parts of
SURVIVORS. I watched LIFE ON MARS thanks to you - and it's the best TV I've
ever seen. I gave up on HEROES after the second series and I still watch
LOST but not on Sky - I wait for DVD-RIPS without the fucking breaks.

I got round to watching part one on Tuesday night and wasn't overly
impressed. I watched part two tonight and have now completely changed my
opinion of it.
I wasn't expecting the story to be so interwoven between the episodes.
Next weeks episode looks good as it promises to answer some of the
questions that I had about the first one. Now I realise the loose ends
were there for a reason and I shouldn't be so impatient.
But, fuck me, what a downbeat series.

Me too! Part 2 was a much more involving story, gotta love the Ripper,
and the characters were far more interesting and believable.

Yeah, this could be fucking MASSIVE. I was really pleased to see that
it's going back in time next week, considering what happened to my
favourite character at the end.

That's harsh. There's no more dedicated fan of The Shield than my own
sullied self, but even I need a pick me up reference after a year off

Divorced. Now last week, I was in Costa Rica, hiding in the jungle as
7 police cars screamed along the main road in Jaco / Playa hermosa.
Who do you think they were looking for? after living as a fugitive for
6 days and nights, while my new fiancee got power-fucked by a motley
gang of roided-out surf instructors, I was subject to an American
Airlines security escort all the way back to Miami and from Miami to
Baltimore, where I finally collapsed from starvation and grief.
You'd never believe that such lunacy could possibly be true, at least
not without photos....but I left my camera in her bag. Now I'm back in
York PA, in an apartment I can't afford....I am broke and about to go
wandering the country with a tent.
Although tonight I have a date with an underage secretary. Anybody
spare me a sawbuck? Also, if you know anyone who needs a cat....

How old is the cat?
genegr...@gmail.com
He's about 1 year old, a bit wild, but very affectionate. A peach of a
lapkitty, but with the bite of a bobcat. In six months, I have not had
one single problem with him, aside from his temper...but I tend to
instigate him when I'm drunk and malcontented. Say what you will, but
I'm quick to bestow upon any needy feline TOTAL LOVE. Yes, however
perversely, I truly have tamed the sumbitch. He has revealed through
critical wounding of me the subcutaneous fat of my ruined hands, and I
have dangled him out of a window in a chicken wire cage....but we were
able to resolve our issues and move on. It is blissful now with Sam
and myself, but I can not feed him any longer.
I will post photos later this evening. I'm not fucking around, he's
an exceptional beast and deserves a pass.
