Am I stupid?The first time I watched season 1, 2, and 3 of the "Fargo" TV series I probably grasped none of the deeper meanings described below.Season 1: (a) Humans are animals: just another aspect of the natural world, but with reason this time. This season shows how the various characters are various animals: predators and prey, failures and winners, rare and common. (b) Cosmic forces or random chance result in a force of nature / an apex predator / a wolf (Malvo) causing all of the events of this season. Lorne Malvo crashed because deer ran into the road, and he ended up in the city or town where the characters he interacted with are.Season 2: (a) People are drawn to their fate by cosmic forces (or random things). Some are puppets and others are more so in control. The color blue and the UFO sightings (also blue-themed) are representative of this. The color red is representative of not being so bound by fate = more in control. (b) Failure of communication results in things happening.Season 3: (a) Uncertainty and confusion is prevalent throughout. Until more closely observed, things are in a superposition of both true and false, existent and non-existent, dead and alive, etc. Important things are left inconclusive or undetailed. Who really is V.M. Varga? What was his fate? What was the thing at the beginning in East Germany about? (b) Do things happen due to cosmic forces or due to randomness? I think there's more to it than that, but this season is probably the most "postmodern".Am I stupid for not realizing these deeper meanings on first watching these seasons? Did you see them after your first watch?
I mostly rewatched seasons 1 through 3 over the past year(s). Varga recited this nursery rhythm, which is related to or representative of his character:There once was a crooked manWho walked a crooked mileAnd found a crooked sixpenceAgainst a crooked stileHe bought a crooked catWho caught a crooked mouseAnd they all lived togetherIn a crooked little houseAttached image: based Varga disliking spics / border hoppers.
>>217007421I see. I usually don't quit watching shit even if I know it's shit. If I start it I finish it. But maybe this time I'll actually do something better with my life than wasting time watching stupid TV show episodes.
>>217007521I generally watch things to the finish too. I really enjoyed the first 3 seasons of Fargo so I gave the 4th and 5th seasons a fair amount of leeway; but like I said I got halfway into the series and I just didn't care about any of the characters or the story enough to finish the season.I guess his Alien series at least managed to keep my attention; but it kept its most retarded writing for the last two episodes. So even though I watched the whole thing I doubt I'm going to tune in for the next season. It had some interesting ideas; but the characters are just all idiots even the ones that are supposed to be geniuses. People die out of just absolute mind numbing stupidity on numerous occasions. At one point they put an extremely dangerous alien in a test tube that's apparently made out of normal glass since it shatters when it falls off a table. Like surely they could have come up with a smarter way for the alien to escape; but the writing is just lazy.

>>217006585EVERY time Johnny Sack yells "THE ESPLANADE" in the series:>S4E1 "For all Debts Private and Public">S4E4 "The Weight">S4E11 "Calling All Cars">S4E12 "Eloise">S4E13 "White Caps">S5E1 "Two Tonys">S5E3 "Where's Johnny">S5E12 "Long Term Parking"
Keep in mind the esplanade scheme was based on a real thing the NY/NJ mobs did in the 1970s during the building up of Atlantic City and the Jersey Shore. The amount of money they generated through fraudulent construction contract scams and no-show jobs was equal to $150 million today. Carmine/Johnny Sac had very good reason to be so concerned with it. The kind of money that Jersey's glorified crew could never understand
>>217007296Thank you. Excellent summary.
>>217007716Something I forgot to mention in my post is I always liked the idea that Tony Soprano proudly tells Meadow about how her great grandparents or w/e were these carpenters or masons who built that church, when the Esplanade is in the middle of the entire show and is like a twisted mockery of the act of building something.I also see the Esplanade as this parallel to Tony's time with Melfi, the therapist. They're both "constructive" pursuits that never go anywhere and that ultimately exist for him to siphon something valuable, be it money in the former case or validation or honing his manipulative and amoral mindset in the latter.
Did anyone ever watched these movies?
>inb4 hur dur epstein hur dur kubrick was killedwhat the fuck was Kubrick trying to say with this movie? a lot of his movies are left up to interpretation but this one might be the most mysterious and unresolved to me. it circles some identifiable themes (lust, power, identity, jealousy, control, humiliation) but it feels like it almost refuses to comment on any of it

>>217004633There was another one where Carl confronts another cop over racially profiling his son, and the B-plot is full of Urkel getting up to wacky antics at the dentist that completely kill any attempt at keeping the tone serious.

So for the uninitiated, in 2008, people unassociated with the original production used pan and scan on the negatives of Lonesome Dove and cropped the picture from 4:3 to 16:9, butchering much of the series in the process by cutting off 20% of the picture from top to bottom. I searched for over a year for the final DVD of the original 4:3 TV master and couldn’t find it. So I bought it myself and ripped it. Anyone interested in a Lonesome Dove stream?During the stream I will upload the ripped files that also include the special features. It’s about 20gb. If you haven’t seen Lonesome Dove you won’t wanna miss this masterpiece, and how it was meant to be seen.

Im a few episodes into Smile, You and holy crap is it funny and full of soul. Why hasn't kdg ever mentioned it? The first episode was a bit slow, but otherwise the drama is great so far. Lots of funny chemistry and character interactions. The FL is also hot and surprisingly good at comedy. In the one other drama I'd seen her in, Fates and Furies, she was basically an emotionless robot most of the time.

>>217007158Gravity Falls and Star vs the Forces of Evil were a pretty big deal in 2010s internet. I really liked Kick Buttowski as a kid (pretty sure Kick is canonically born in 2000 like me), but it wasn't as relevant even if it was arguably the face of Disney XD. The 2 I mentioned at the start were the only relevant Disney original cartoons released after Phineas and Ferb.I think the last thing Disney XD aired before shutting down was the intro to Kick Buttowski.

>>217007626You skipped the wrong movie. 1 is about is mid as movies get, 2 was a surprising jump in quality, and 3 is also good but feels like a rehash of 2.
>>217007640maybe? i'll watch 1 again and then 2 in the next couple days. i skipped over 2 'cause covid days. 3 wasn't great to me (maybe it gets better after watching 2...) but it was a pretty movie, felt very 'turn your brain off, watch pretty blue faggots and presentation'

Why did they cast a leatherbag as the hottie?
>>217007702It shoulda been Vanessa Angel instead
>>217007702She was hot in the first season maybe the second but she tanned like that old lady in Something About Mary until she became a football.
>>217007702This prevented the show from reaching kino status imo, I know lots of people here love it but I just can't stand that woman. Same with Michael's mom actually, she's annoying as fuck and not in a fun way. Recast leatherskelly and mom and it would've been a perfect show.
