ChiliIrishHammock24 Posted October 8, 2014 Share Posted October 8, 2014 Gotham was a little ridiculous last night with the balloon man thing. I'm not knowledgeable on weather balloons, so maybe they CAN actually life an adult human off the ground, but I'm not so sure that they rise all the way to the atmosphere STRAIGHT up in the air without the wind moving it. The fact that the victims fell right back down on to Gotham is highly, highly unlikely. Secondly. Why wouldn't Jim Gordon shoot the balloon instead of jumping on the guy and floating up with him? Was he REALLY willing to risk his life/legs just to prove that Bullock would save him? I get him not wanting the Balloonman to die, but he should have shot the balloon down, not jumped up and grabbed the guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The best part was when the two detectives had to have it explained to them that balloons actually come down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Posted October 8, 2014 Share Posted October 8, 2014 Bullock is such an awful cop,I'm love it. Beat up by a woman than balloon man takes his gun so easily, I thought the concept of the weather balloon was very comic like and fit the show. This maybe my fav new show.

LittleHurt05 Posted October 8, 2014 Share Posted October 8, 2014 QUOTE (Milkman delivers @ Oct 7, 2014 -> 11:56 AM) Finally a Boardwalk Empire episode this season that wasn't boring or terrible. Good to hear. I'm one episode behind, but it's been 5 minutes of action and 55 minutes of boredom. The Nucky childhood scenes are killing me, I don't care anymore.

I suspend disbelief when watching this show, I'm not expecting it to be realistic. I thought the 3rd episode was just as good as the first two. Next week looks fun as well.

ChiliIrishHammock24 Posted October 9, 2014 Share Posted October 9, 2014 Anyone here watch Peaky Blinders? It's a BBC show that Netflix has recently picked up. I assume the relationship will be similar to how Sherlock is aired normally in the UK, and then Netflix and PBS (maybe?) airs it here months afterwards. My buddy saw the first episode and told me I need to watch it. I guess it's like a British version of Boardwalk Empire. Takes place in the 20s and is about the gangs in London. Tom Hardy has joined the cast for season 2, a cast that consists of Sam Neill (Jurassic Park) and Cillian Murphy (The bad guy in pretty much every movie).

Harry Chappas Posted October 9, 2014 Share Posted October 9, 2014 Sons of Anarchy is still hanging in there. Glad the series is over but the story arc focusing on Gemma is just a waste of good potential...maybe the ending fits but the Jumping of thh Shark started with Ireland and landed with Opie's exit. The one good thing though is it is local, no Mexico or IRA. The current stuff is somewhat believable. I like that the Scot is getting laid as well.

Supposedly, one of the main samcro members dies in Episode 9 or 10, not counting Juice or Gemma on that list. (Guessing it has to be Scotty/Chibs or Tig)...Unser's doomed to never die, it would seem. There's so many lies and deceptions this season, it's hard to keep track of what's going on exactly. Nero is the main reason I keep watching, and of course to see how the Jax/Gemma confrontation finally comes out. Jax has done so many heinous things in the last couple of seasons you're almost against him, but not quite. It's not like Breaking Bad, where you pretty much know Heisenberg's eventual outcome at a certain point. In this case, Jax is the hero/anti-hero...he can't get off scot free, and yet you have a feeling a guy like that would have a much harder time living out his 50's and 60's than dying an outlaw's death in the prime of his life. It still has that feel since the start of the season that Wendy and Nero will somehow end up together taking care of Thomas, Cain and Nero's special needs child...like at one point in BB when you thought Jessie was going to end up in a serious relationship with the young woman who had the kid. I guess I could also live with Nero and Opie's gal living happily ever after, but who knows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chw42 Posted October 9, 2014 Share Posted October 9, 2014 Last night's SP was hilarious. They actually got Lorde to guest-star on the show (at least a lot of people think they did). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MEANS Posted October 9, 2014 Share Posted October 9, 2014 Yeah I haven't laughed that hard in a while, especially when Stan just passed out and fell over. I love how each episode is connected this season. I also read that Matt and Trey tried the whole Gluten free thing and still are gluten free as well as the people who's names on the credits have GF by their name.

Well, season 2 is currently airing, so there are 8 episodes at the moment. Pilot episode was pretty good. As I expected, it was just a little difficult to understand their accents, so I watched with the captions on, and that helped. I really enjoyed it though.
