Slim Charles was always good at taking out someone who had it coming, it's just a shame that Reggie Love didn't watch The Wire and pissed off the wrong fry cook. I'll miss that guy, he was my favorite pimp.heydaralon wrote:Capps, what did you think of the last episode of the Deuce? Slim Charles strikes again!

What show are you watching right now?

He became a huge asshole as the show went on. Cici is the second biggest asshole. Ironically, Larry Brown, who had the reputation for being the most violent, seemed to become a more sympathetic character as the show went on. Rodney seems to be the most easy going one, aside from Richie.StCapps wrote:Slim Charles was always good at taking out someone who had it coming, it's just a shame that Reggie Love didn't watch The Wire and pissed off the wrong fry cook.

Indeed. With Reggie gone, C.C. and Rodney are fighting it out for my new favorite pimp, right now I'd give the edge to Rodney ever so slightly, because that scene where he tries to recruit Candy after she takes a beating, is just so damn awesome on every level.heydaralon wrote:He became a huge asshole as the show went on.

Kind of sad that Simon couldn't check his white privilege at the door and see that pimping is a civil rights issue, and an important one at that!

Who knew that Maggie Gyllenhaal and Method Man would have such great on screen chemistry together? David Simon apparently.

Method Man can act for sure! He delivered some awesome insults on the Wire, and some great one-liners!StCapps wrote:Indeed.

This ain't the movie thread, but did you see Brawl in Cell Block 99? I watched it with some people from work. It is a ridiculous movie on so many levels, and its great! Its a slow burn, and you might like it dude.

Re: What show are you watching right now?
Nope haven't seen it, reading the description, it does sound fairly ridiculous, I'll keep it in mind. Former boxer/auto mechanic turns to being a drug courier at a crossroad in his life and obviously shit happens from there. Vince Vaughn and Don Johnson eh?heydaralon wrote:but did you see Brawl in Cell Block 99? I watched it with some people from work. It is a ridiculous movie on so many levels, and its great!

Re: What show are you watching right now?
Yeah its got the guy from Miami Vice and Eastbound and Down. Vince Vaughn plays a goddamn leg breaking mean bastard with a heart of gold. The script is pretty good. Its made by the guy who made Bone Tomahawk. Low budget, but always fun to watch. Usually I hate movies like this, but this one is a glaring exception.StCapps wrote:Nope haven't seen it, reading the description, it does sound fairly ridiculous, I'll keep it in mind.

Re: What show are you watching right now?
I rewatched episode 1 of the leftovers Capps. I saw it a few years back and didn't watch any of the other ones. I must say, it was pretty weird. I am not a very cultured person, so I will admit that I might not have gotten what the creator was trying to do. Weird cult shit and parties and whatnot. I will say this: it is shot really well. I'm not an expert of film, but the lighting and stuff created this sort of creepy mood, like a bad dream. It has started a bit slow, but I will give it a chance and keep going.StCapps wrote:Nope haven't seen it, reading the description, it does sound fairly ridiculous, I'll keep it in mind.
