Re: Let's talk about TV!

Haha I'm not dismissive of him. All I said was he's not a very good actor. Thank you for showing me his Oscars for best director and best picture though because I was totally referring to his non-acting roles. And bad actors do win awards. Look no further than Nic Cage and Kevin Costner.

Re: Let's talk about TV!

Ok so this is all just one big political conspiracy. I understand now. Clint Eastwood is very similar to John Wayne. They're both not very good actors but have made an entire career playing one type of character with a cult following. If he doesn't get nominated again it sure won't be because of his...

Re: Let's talk about TV!

Well I'm pretty sure the underlying political slant of the show has absolutely nothing to do with the nomination process. In fact, if the political slant does exist it probably helps the show in the voting process because at least its attempting to make a point. Here's last years nominees: Homeland,...

Re: Let's talk about TV!

I'm sure you'd rather talk to your shoe that way it couldn't question anything you say. I'm just trying get my points across, don't get all uptight about everything. I read the article and responded to the points. I didn't say they can't possibly be valid. But the piece is obviously an editorial and...

Re: Let's talk about TV!

It's an article written by someone who likes the show questioning why it hasn't been nominated for an Emmy. Doesn't exactly prove much other than the fact that it hasn't ever won an Emmy. Award shows aren't exactly the be all end all anyways. I mean DiCaprio has never won an Oscar. But at least he g...

Re: Let's talk about TV!

You're right I haven't watched it for that long. Because I didn't like it. There have been hundreds of crime dramas throughout the years and none have really hooked me. Crime dramas tend to have similar writing styles and casting choices. The reason some shows rise above others is because they come ...

Re: Let's talk about TV!

I think The Wire is a bit overrated by those who've seen it. Don't get me wrong I like the show a lot, maybe in my top 5 dramas of all-time, but its not the best show of all time. Critics love to praise its realism and all that stuff but there a definitely better shows out today. It might be the bes...

Re: Music Thread

SG, not a huge Daft Punk fan myself..a little too electronic for my taste. But they definitely have some good songs on the album. I thought their new single with Pharrell was pretty good. And obviously anything with Julian Casablancas in it is gonna be good so I like the collaboration they had with ...

So come on and post some your favorite artists, some live shows, or some new up and coming bands. I'll start with the coolest band of the past twenty years...the Strokes! He...

Re: Check out my music video!

Nice video man! I checked out your other stuff, you guys have a cool sound going on there. You kinda remind me of the Low Anthem who's also from Rhode Island. Just curious if you moved out to LA for music? There's actually a pretty good music scene in RI, mostly Providence. Not sure if you've listen...
