Haters Gonna Hate Posted August 6, 2014 Share Posted August 6, 2014 I just Googled True Detective (to see anything new) and apparently Vince Vaughn is also rumored to be in it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

appetite4illusions Posted August 6, 2014 Share Posted August 6, 2014 It was while watching Guardians of the Galaxy that it hit me how much i'd love to see Benicio Del Toro dip his foot in the waters of True Detective.The guy is really one of the most underrated actors around. So idiosyncratic and he can seethe intensity. He'd be pitch perfect for the landscape. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wasted Posted August 7, 2014 Share Posted August 7, 2014 Thing is Rust was reading those books. So it's like saying a character quoting Proust is plagiarism, which it isn't, it's characterisation. Was the plot or story original? Not really it was a composite of other movies TV shows. Like Tarantino. The director made it something new.

I just thought the director gave it atmosphere which made it more than just the words on the page, which were kind of newish but not really. If you Galveston its the same: badass characters but the lead is very moral at heart. Which is quite common in thrillers/mystery novels. But Pizz took a lot of TV shows and movies and concocted something out of it, but was it new? It was genre, I'm not sure it was new. But the best parts were the director with that Le Doux freeze frame. Or the use of music as Marty is downing pills. Or how he shot that Michael Mann riot scene. Somehow it came off cool but not sure it was new. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Estranged Reality Posted September 22, 2014 Share Posted September 22, 2014 this is kind of amusing given today's news. this was written last year.http://hollywoodandswine.com/colin-farrell-suffering-from-depression-after-agents-tell-him-to-consider-career-in-television/i said months ago that i thought farrell would be a perfect choice for a show like this. it'll really help him revive his career and he's always better off in these kinds of character roles. i'm happy about it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Funny enough, Farrell is in one of my favourite movies from the last five to ten years: In Bruges. It's too bad nobody went to see it. Love these types of movies. I agree with you ER, I think he'll do a great job in this show. I think television has less of a stigma these days than it did even two years ago. Seems like years go by now without me getting excited to go to the movies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
appetite4illusions Posted September 22, 2014 Share Posted September 22, 2014 It's not the worst casting choice in the world, but as I've said before, you always trade up, not down.I'd bet Colin got the role that HBO allegedly desperately wanted Christian Bale for, last spring. It's all too tempting to imagine a season with Bale as an obsessive detective. Unfortunately, Christian takes these intense characters home with him and lives in their skin for the duration of the shoot. He's probably done subjecting his wife and kids to any more scowling fiends. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rovim Posted September 22, 2014 Share Posted September 22, 2014 Farrel is going to hit the bottle hard when this bombs.Can he act? I'm not sure. Saw one movie of his that was kinda cool. I don't know if he's good enough as an actor. Hope I'm wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wasted Posted September 22, 2014 Share Posted September 22, 2014 Critics like him. I think he's just likeable. Phone Booth and In Bruges were fun. Miami Vice was kind of cool. If they got Jamie Foxx to play his partner in TD that might be cool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's too bad nobody went to see it. It didn't do well when it came out but now it's everybody's favourite movie. I think it's been vindicated by time.

wasted Posted September 23, 2014 Share Posted September 23, 2014 It's not a big movie for IMAX good on DVD or on TV. I think SWAT shows what he'll be like in a cop show. Swaggering around being a bit of a cock. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
