About to watch Death Of A Cyclist, & For The Next 7 Generations.
Just the title, "ForNext 7 Generations", spoke volumes, this is going to be killer...
"The Indigenous Grandmothers weaving a World that works"

I haven't been watching many movies because of work and I'm hooked on the rock:




Most of the way through season 4 meow. Netflix has enough instant movie titles that makes it worthwhile to have, but I think I've used it more for watching TV shows such as 30 Rock. Being able to watch multiple seasons of shows in a close proximity is way better than watching them on TV where you have at least a week between episodes and sometimes a full year between seasons.

I really need to get my Netflix back

This trailer of the new Iceman movie based on hit man Richard Kuklinski looks like it will be pretty awesome
It has Michael Shannon the dude who plays Van Alden on Boardwalk Empire starring as Richard

Should be good

Dexter Vs. Mad Men

I am the biggest Dexter fan ever. But I am becoming a fan, not huge, but a fan of Mad Men. Do you think certain shows use better cameras and more expensive equipment? It just seems like Mad Men looks more like a movie, as to Dexter looks brilliant but maybe not as flashy. True or nah?

 

[bartmania]

Does Dexter look like a movie or a series to you? I'm talking aesthetics.

 

[bartmania]

does anyone agree?

 

[bartmania]

Anyone see my point?

 

[L2R]

they're both series. they look like the locations they are set, the eras they are set and the tones with which the stories are told. nothing more.

 

[bartmania]

Have you watched both? why does one look like a movie and the other a series? Or am i being paranoid?

 

[MrGrunge]

They have different directors, different budgets, and different premises, that's why they look different.

 

[bartmania]

I think Mad Men looks more movie like. Dexter looks like its actually happening with its filming, not a bad thing, still looks like a movie, just nto as much, you agree?

 

[MrGrunge]

Honestly dude, I don't have any idea what you're talking about. How does one piece of film look more like a 'movie' than any other? Movies can look like anything.

 

[bartmania]

I guess you made a good point. It just looks like a particular kind of movie, brilliant. You solved it man. Thanks.

 

[L2R]

are you 12?

 

[Bardeaux]

I'd watch a Mad Men movie
