I remember watching that.

>>21428

Any links to video or torrents?

>>21427
Not watched the video but I remember a show like this too - is it the one where there was an contagious deadly disease and they had to choose how large an area they wanted to quarantine, and the correct answer was the city, and they chose the entire Midlands or something?

>>21430
No idea about the scenario, but the format certainly fits. I've not been able to find any of the other episodes but then I've not exactly put in a lot of effort into looking.

>>21427
It's that brown bird. I want to stuff her with hard-boiled eggs and make her lay them on my office desk while I do some stressful work. I want her to say "Look, I made another one. I am such a pro," and I will tell her to fuck off because I'm working.

I thought that South African bloke who did District 9 and some other films of lower repute was directing this?

>>21412

We was in talks to do an Alien 5/Alien 3.2 but it was stalled so Scott could make his Prometheus followups. Probably not gonna happen at all now.

Pretty poor introduction to what I thought was a fascinating documentary.

Felt really bloody awful for those people who had their paradise destroyed and then got cancer as a byproduct. Really nasty stuff.

It's intentionally never explained. They've denied that it was human meat on the grounds that it would be too obvious, although there is that scene where Hilary meets an ambulance in the woods at night.

>>21405

I recall a packet of meat with a human ear visible used in some promotional bit for the series...

>>21406
>Though it is never revealed what "special stuff" consists of, many have assumed that it is human meat. However, the writers have denied that this is the case, stating that they can think of "nothing more mundane than cannibalism", and indicating that it is something much worse. However, the Season 1 DVD includes a fragment of brainstorming materials in its bonus section, on which the idea of the butcher selling human appendices obtained from the local hospital is listed. Others suspect it is a highly addictive substance like cocaine, given various clues throughout Seasons 1 and 2. As revealed in season 2, Hilary's wife is a cow. Some may believe that the special stuff might be the meat of some kind of cow human hibrid that comes from his intercourse with the cow. Even the writers were apparently not sure what the special stuff was at the beginning of the series. When Briss takes Maurice along with him to receive a "special delivery" from deep in a dark forest, we see whom he gets the special stuff from: a tall ominous figure accompanied by a hunchbacked figure. It is shown that even Briss seems absolutely terrified of them. The only clue from the original live shows as to what the substance is that it rhymes with "drawstring", which has led some fans to believe that the "special stuff" is circumcised foreskins. Another clue is that the Hebrew for circumcision is Brit milah, [1] which, when used in everyday English, is known as a "Brit"--or, more regularly--a "Bris."

>post-truth thing
Yeah, because politics has always been a paragon of honesty. It's only since ~2012 that this whole post-truth business came about. Before that everyone was unfailingly honest.

Peace in our time. I am NOT a crook. Saddam is ready to fire chemical weapons at us in 5 minutes.

I can't speak for anything else, but certainly in 2012 I don't recall any politician disputing the order on the natural numbers.

>Looking at data from rust belt states which flipped from Obama to Trump is not an arbitrary criterion to use
Nobody said that. I said that aggregating them was arbitrary. I'm sure all three of us would agree that there's nothing wrong with looking at people's genitals, but I'm sure we'd also agree that taking the population as a whole and conclusion that on average we've got one ball each isn't reasonable.

In Iowa, Clinton received over 20% fewer votes than Obama did. In Ohio, she dropped over 400k. These two states represent more votes lost than the other three put together, and they were states that were expected to flip. Obama carrying Ohio a second time was itself unexpected - when the networks called it, the Romney camp called in to complain because their numbers were telling them otherwise, and Karl Rove memorably went into meltdown on live television. Nobody genuinely expected the other three to flip, not even in Trump's own campaign. Those two groups don't belong together as an aggregate.

>>21401
Happily, you can look through them state by state to see how wrong you are.

>>21402
Go on.

> It isn't a theme

No, it'd be quite hard to make a film where criticising Woolworth's merchandise was a major theme (although I'd be sure to watch such a film if someone were to make it). It is, however, just one example of the many critiques made against society generally in the film. I think the the film is quite overwhelming in its delivery in such a way as to hide the fact that seemingly unrelated "quotes" and scenes actually manage to tie in together as a social critique.

Sage for rambling off topic again.

>>21294
>a man who ramblings also cover hair picking up signals from the cosmos.
He's a great character. He plays the same character again in Wayne's World 2. Looking at it now, that appears to be roughly the same flat that he's in.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ReT3s0siI_Q

>>21296
I had a look and it definitely is. What a nice touch.

>>21296
>>21297

I'll admit that I haven't seen Wayne's World 2 (or 1) in some twenty years but now you've really boggled my noggin. I'm going to have to look into this.

Dunno if American Psycho would be too far off the mark to be worth suggesting, but it's an enjoyable film.

>>21112

>Watch Fleabag instead.

That was one of those unexpected gems. I can't remember why I even chose to watch it on iPlayer, but enjoyed it.

>>21270
Have a look for her show Crashing, it's even better.

>>21271
Thanks for the tip, I really enjoyed Fleabag as well. When you say "show" do you mean an actual theatre one or something I can grab in convenient .avi format?

>>21272
Convenient .avi format.

>>21273
Thank you, friend.

>Matt Baker's Dr Who

I used to fucking hate Liz.

>>21257
I haven't watched it, but I get the impression that it's a bit shite, the same as the series they tried a few years ago.

Just one look at their casting choice for Dirk shows that they've completely missed the point of the book. The brief description of him I've copied from wikipedia "a pudgy man who normally wears a heavy old light brown suit, red checked shirt with a green striped tie, long leather coat, red hat and thick metal-rimmed spectacles." The ongoing descriptions of his physical appearance and his personality through the books, basically add up to the image of a stereotypical fedora-wearing neckbeard.

>>21259
He's not a stereotypical fedora-wearing neckbeard because that trope didn't exist at the time. He's not the Matt Bakerlite that he is in this show either. The rest of the cast is quite good.

>>21258
She's not in it.

The one with Stephen Mangan was really good. What's this now? Who are these clowns?

Episode two was quite good. I'll keep watching.

>>21237
Which was discussing Curtis. Are you okay? You sound a little hurt, don't worry about it, I'm sure everyone else thinks you're still special. Just not me.

>>21251
>Which was discussing Curtis.

So? The

>Adam Curtis being wrong or right doesn't matter

comments were objectively stupid, because I didn't make any comments on Adam Curtis's film. I only commented on the Counterpunch article, which is the usual anti-western 'Putin is no worse than Tony Blair' bullshit that pinko rags have been pumping out for years.

There's a really boring habit of the sort of arrogant cunt that thinks they're a march ahead on the rest of mankind because they read Counterpunch and watched Fight Club on DVD. They get caught out, and then conduct panicked rearguard actions during their retreat, just like you right now. Sad!

>>21252

>Sad!

I had no idea Donald Trump was capable of writing more than 140 characters in one go.

>>21254

>>21255

Sad! Tremendously Sad!

>>21157

That sounds awful, but about on par with the rest of season 8.

>>21155
I'd like to see a dark turn like in backwards or last human.

Get the main characters half murdered whilst getting involved in a war against simulants in a sci-fi high concept environment, have a point where they get back to what has become of the earth, (life has reverted back to Paleozoic state), Lister ends up stepping on a colony of slugs when exiting starbug turns out they are the closest living descendants of humanity, throw in a plot about Lister being able to get Kochanski, but ultimately he has to sacrifice the opportunity for a greater cause, have Rimmer get a chance at redemption in a last stand against the simulants and get killed, have Kryten break his programing and learn the virtues of killing (ironically Lister) in a trolley problem (probably involving a time loop where the best out come can only happen if Lister is dead), The cat then meets other cats and selfishly forgets about the rest of the crew, leaving just a guilt ridden Kryten and Holly, Holly says something philosophical about it being finally the end of the long story of humanity, but it's not really gone, and will forever be immortalized as long as we stand as a testament to its accomplishments and remember it, at which point a scutter (that had been set up as assembling an emp bomb to fight the simulants earlier), sets it off resetting both of their memories.

>>21155
>If you were in control, how would you choose to end the series?
If you want to end it well for the fans, happy ending where they sail off into the sunset etc.

If you want to be talked about as deep and meaningful and rake in the DVD sales then go the Blackadder route and kill everyone off while playing sombre music. Try and tie it into a real world death as well. Maybe some dead astronaut.

New series isn't too bad. It's not the best Dwarf I've seen but it's entertaining enough.

>>21155
I don't think there really is any way to end it. Whatever has become of Earth is better left an unseen mystery; whether Red Dwarf returns and finds a super advanced civilisation, a desolate wasteland, or something else entirely, it will still be a bland and unsatisfying end to the story. But if Lister decides to abandon his quest, then your reaction would be, 'you were already bumming around space having adventures so if you're going to continue doing so let us see it'. And killing everyone off would be pretty jarring.

Maybe they could discover some technology that would fix everything by allowing them to restart the human race and terraform a new Earth. Then they can all fulfill their ambitions: Rimmer becomes an officer in the newly-reconstituted Space Corps; Kryten gets to plant his garden and do ironing for all the new humans; Cat gets to have a lot of sex; and Lister gets to retire with Kochanski on a Fijiesque island.

>>21155

They reenter the Sol system through slip space anomaly, the sudden arrival of such a large ship alarms the Reapers besieging Earth. Harbinger itself ventures out of atmosphere to investigate, allowing a bloodied Commander Shepherd to travel to the recently relocated Citadel above London.

>>21161
Perhaps some time travel deal. Kryten pipes up about the butterfly effect and remember JFK, and gets told to shove it.

>>21132
This one. Probably has a vial of rohypnol hidden up his sleeve.

>>21136
Calm down Stewart. Just start slipping a few more knob gags into the set and before you know it you'll be getting offered a spot on Strictly.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-ykNXaHSCt8#t=52m - Dave Perry explains his butthurt.

It was the infamous show where he loses at Mario 64, apparently he hadn't had any practice on it whereas his opponent had.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UEFr6ACZ8sI

Dave Perry is now a tattoo artist.

I've just been watching it and it's no where near as good as Gamesmaster, Dara's got nothing on Dominic Diamond.

I was also disappointed that they don't play actual 8-bit games, especially after weeks of seeing it advertised, kind of felt it built up to an anti-climax.

>>21144
I've just seen the latest episode and to be fair they played a few 16-bit titles (Street Fighter 2 Turbo and Sensible Soccer), and they even played an 8-bit title (Track and Field), they even mentioned one of my favourites - Cannon Fodder. It was a much more enjoyable episode but still not as good as Gamesmaster.

This show feels like a lost Stephen King and Steven Speilberg collaboration.

>>21149

A lot of Half-Life vibe also.

It will be interesting to see if they introduce other monsters and dimensions in the next series, or if it will be solely based on that one orchid-faced-beast.

I'd like to see it turn into some sort of Sci-Fi Lovecraftian D&D saga. Including a storyline where they meet their own dopplegangers. But saying that now, it sounds hokey as fuck.

>>21150

I couldn't imagine the next season being as good, a big part if the charm was the small groups in the show working independently because they didn't think there was anyone to aid them, once they formed into a unit at the end it is difficult to go back to the same formula. You can, but it can easily feel forced.

>>20978
>Not much to add that isn't being said everywhere else but I thought it was good.
Pretty much this. It's just really solid and well made, with excellent acting all around. I was worried earlier on that they wouldn't manage to keep up the pace and tension, but it delivered. Watched it in one sitting, couldn't help myself.

I don't expect season 2 to hit in the same way; the first felt pretty complete, albeit with a minor cliffhanger at the end, so it's going to be hard to make something that stands on its own, rather it feeling like it's standing on the shoulders of what came before. I'll be happy enough either way.

>>21150
