Guest Len B'stard Posted April 29, 2013 Share Posted April 29, 2013 Id like to have a butchers..wouldnt it fuck up the continuity though because the 4 Psycho films cover all of Normans victims and by 4 he's burned the hotel down so whoose the murderer in the series, who does he kill?

Angelica Posted April 29, 2013 Share Posted April 29, 2013 I saw the pilot of Bates Motel, aside from the fact that it benefits from strong actors, I couldn't see the point too it and haven't bothered with it since. I am enjoying Hannibal though, it's much better than I expected it to be (although granted, also pointless). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dalsh327 Posted April 29, 2013 Share Posted April 29, 2013 Bates Motel seems like they're trying to make a Twin Peaks meets Dawson's Creek, and Hannibal seems like they're working CSI into the show, they're even having Larry Fishburne on. I like getting into a show in the second season and get the DVDs or watch it online, it's been a really long time since I watched anything from the beginning and stuck with it.

wasted Posted April 29, 2013 Author Share Posted April 29, 2013 Both kind of pointless. Bates is more fun exploitation. Mrs Bates is much fitter than i imagined. It was pretty addictive. Norman is pretty pimp. Hannibal is on the edge. Makes me feel a bit queasy. Theres no outlet to it, its just really serious. Theres a lot of arteries severed.

Guest Len B'stard Posted April 29, 2013 Share Posted April 29, 2013 In the first one he does Marion Crane, Arbogast and they find his mum and find out through his confession that he killed two other birds which is depicted in the first movie, in Psycho 2 he does over Lila Loomis and her daughter, in the 3rd one he does Jaff Fahey i think and that nun and that slapper he puts in the freezer and Psycho 4 is kinda told in flashback showing him doing his Mum and her boyfriend and having a go at maybe doing his wife later and thats meant to cover the life or Norman Bates and his various crimes/murders etc so who is he doing over in the TV series?

wasted Posted April 29, 2013 Author Share Posted April 29, 2013 Its like a young 17 year old Norman. how he became a psycho.. or showing exploring the relationship with his hot mom. Its like the Adventures of Norman Bates. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Len B'stard Posted April 29, 2013 Share Posted April 29, 2013 Thats what i mean though, Psycho 4 covers that so whats it gonna be about, Norman Bates goes to school or whatever? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wasted Posted April 29, 2013 Author Share Posted April 29, 2013 Yes basically. Him romancing the ladies. I think its just more of that, using those elements to make a tv series. He has a step brother and some cop is trying to arrest mrs bates for murdering someone the day after they bought the motel. I dont really know the details.

Val22 Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 Love the Bates Motel show.The second season begins to night.I love how you know where the show is going, but for some reason, I find Norma likeable. I know her and Norman have a very weird relationship, but some of the things she comes out with are just too funny.I think this show does justice to the movie Psycho. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A marathon was on yesterday so I watched a few episodes to get a refresher and was thinking the same thing. I think it's awesome that you already know how the characters end up and you're still moved to care about them.Edit- I also find that broad that plays Norma strangely hot.

Black Sabbath Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 Made a thread about Hannibal the other day. It's awesome.Haven't checked out Bates Motel, but I've also never seen Psycho.I know who you're talking about though, Russ, and she is hot.

wasted Posted March 4, 2014 Author Share Posted March 4, 2014 It's kind of like the adventures of Norman Bates. They keep killing people and getting mixed up with people. I kind of pussied out of Hannibal. You can't eat a microwave meal and watch hannibal suckling on some human liver. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RussTCB Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 Gonna change the name of this thread since there are threads for Hannibal, just an FYI.edit-The first episode kicked ass. Seems they might move things along a little faster as opposed to season 1. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
downzy Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 Really enjoyed the first season. Went in with deep reservations, but thought they did a great job. Really like how they have included the town into the overall narrative. Glad to hear the first episode of the new season is being applauded. Likely watch it tomorrow night.

wasted Posted March 4, 2014 Author Share Posted March 4, 2014 (edited) Definitely didn't think it was a great idea, but I enjoyed each ep so I kept on watching. Edited March 4, 2014 by wasted Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RussTCB Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 Agree with you guys as I thought it was a terrible idea when I heard about it. I actually can't remember why I gave it a chance to begin with, but I'm glad I did because I've really enjoyed it so far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Val22 Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 Okay, stayed up last night to watch the first show of The Bates Motel season 2.Norman was very annoying last night. I'm pretty sure he killed his teacher, but of course, doesn't remember it. So for the hour he kept visiting her grave and sobbed loudly at her funeral.I really do love Norma. She's funny and I loved how she told the city counsel off and that stupid housewife.I will be sorry to see Norman killed his mother, because I think she's the best thing about this show.That annoying blonde girl who tried to kill herself and then shot that guy accidently really needs to go. I don't see why we need her storyline. I would rather see more of Norman's brother Dylan.Anyway, was I seeing things or was the blonde girl's mother, the heroine in A Nightmare on Elm Street, Dream Master and Dream child? It kind of looked like her.Anyway, looks to be another crazy season of Bates Motel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wasted Posted March 5, 2014 Author Share Posted March 5, 2014 I went back and watched season 1 finale. I quickly remember what was going on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's the only story line I could honestly care less about. What she did at the end was bad ass though! And yeah, Norma is the shit. I loved the city counsel meeting too. I laughed pretty hard when she was like "YOU'RE A DICK!" I went back and watched season 1 finale. I quickly remember what was going on. I was surprised they didn't run the season 1 finale prior to the premier of 2. They ran a marathon on Sunday, but it still would've been nice if they ran the last episode right before the new one.

wasted Posted March 5, 2014 Author Share Posted March 5, 2014 I guess this season will be about Norman getting out of nailing his teacher. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Val22 Posted March 6, 2014 Share Posted March 6, 2014 Yeah, Norma kicked ass that episode. The more I see Norma, the more I'm hating that she gets killed by Norman and he stuffs her. God, we all know Norman is mentally ill, but I still find Norma funny and touchy except when she gets too close to Norman. Not good.This season Norma gets a new man in her life. You know Norman isn't going to like this one bit. I also read the guy is supposed to be normal. lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
