My wife and I just started watching that show last night.

Synchronic - Anthony Mackie, who i cant stand, plays a paramedic who has been seeing some very weird deaths. I say give it a watch without watching the trailer or reading about it, its a very different take a certain genre that i wont spoil. Not sure how some of you will take it, but i thought it was a fun watch, i would recommend to the open minded movie types

I get the people who say they don't like it or don't get the appeal but I think it's great. Hilarious, deals with some difficult topics throughout the run and does so in a nice way that never feels too heavy. William H Macy and Steve Howey are funny as hell, and the actors who play Ian and Lip are great.

Yeah it was. I didn't know what to expect and I like Sam Elliot quite a bit but man was it strange and a very slow story. The Bigfoot costume was comical because of how bad it was but creepy AF at the same time

I thought the premise sounded amazing and was really looking forward to the movie. I think it could of been fantastic. But alas.... Here we are

We only are two episodes in since I was running a dnd game last night, but it's been great so far. My wife felt some of the nudity was unnecessary, but pretty funny.

Sex is a pretty consistent part of the show, so fair warning there is a lot of nudity to come lol. A lot of it is made to be as unappealing as possible though, so there is that. It's been a long time since I've watched the first 5-6 seasons.

After District 9, my expectations were sky high so I was disappointed with Elysium. It has some great ideas but the cohesion just isn't there in the narrative, mostly because of the script. The director has admitted as much and "feels like he f*cked it up."

So...it was the nudity that bothered her? There is so much more that is effed up in Shameless IMHO than the nudity IMHO....
