I like the Thomas Perry Jane Whitefield books. I always wondered why they never made it to the big screen. I read Halle Berry had the rights trying to develop a script. The character is half Seneca with a deep history to a NY reservation. That's a huge part of the book series. The character is mixed race so that could work, but changes several plots where she throws the feds off using tribe members thst resemble her. The character is very athletic like a long distance runner, hiker, or climber. I just don't see it. I think it ended up as proposed CW television series set in Oregon that never went anywhere.

Disappointing, but not as much as Tom Cruise as Jack Reacher.

Movie Trivia

At that time, LKG was the most money ever paid for a script by a studio. I was written by one of the collaborators of the Lethal Weapon series
actually written by an acquaintance of mine, Shane Black. He wrote the first two Lethal Weapon scripts, Last Boy Scout, Iron Man 3 and others. Also an actor, one of Arnolds troop in the chopper in Predator - the first one of them to get gutted - and the Manager of the cafe in As Good as It Gets that boots Jack Nicholson out

Always like a good assassin story

Speaking of predator - my boy all over me to take him to the new one

I can tell you all sorts of Hollywood horror stories. No loyalty out there at all

Shane wrote LW 2 as an end to Riggs. It was a two movie series for him. He had Riggs dying in the end. Walked off the set during filming when Warner started the rewrites.

Earlier in the week I picked up Americans again late us season 4 and started season 5. Still am bored with the plot tangents in the daughter. Frank Langella adds a lot.

It definitely slowed at that point but you need to press on to get to season 6. Outstanding.

I may speed watch a little. I move the cursor across her scenes or the ministers scenes then drop on another sub plot. The inner workings of the USSR embassy drag a little too.

I am only an episode into Season 5. I found myself saying: okay Felicity sleep with the minister or kill him. Or sleep with him then kill him. Did they use a butt double in the scene with the Asian? I may read the episode summaries. Spot watch watch a couple of items. Watch the season 5 recap while taking your advice and moving to season 6.

I jumped ship mid season of the one before the last one.

Really good things said about the final season, may circle back once everything is on Netflix or something

and by "press on" I wasn't meaning skip anything, but just get through it some way. There's background you need in season 5 to fully get 6, but maybe the summaries get you there.

"Walking Dead" has officially run out of stories. So many directions they could have gone...

Love that show! (the announcer leaves a great deal to be desired - Faruq... wonder how much he pays them so he can announce?)

Been watching since the old days - 20ish years ago. I think it was Robot Wars or something like that

I remember watching the first season my freshman year at Baylor thinking how great it was. It turned into a soap opera and zombies are just sorta in the background

yep. They had a good chance with Negen and the Saviors. Parts of it were very good, others not so much

Better Call Saul - not quite in the range of Breaking Bad but still superior to most shows out there.

I really like Saul. I read a great article about it, and how it stands on its own.

Its fun to have the "easter eggs" as the producer calls them, of having BB characters show up at different times in the show.

Thought "Mayans" was gonna be pretty good - but they never established any camaraderie within the gang. It was kinda like we caught it mid-season.

If you're hoping for Sons of Anarchy II, it doesnt have that chemistry

watched a couple, might watch a couple more to see how they tie some of the plot lines together but I could also not watch it again and be ok...

S3 of Daredevil was just released on Netflix. The Punisher being released next month I think. I started watching the new Magnum PI episodes and latest Lethal Weapon episodes while on treadmill. Magnum has grown on me but still not as good as the original. IMO Lethal Weapon has gotten better but I fear Wayans has screwed up the future of that show.

Good stuff - (fair warning, have Nazis as the bad guy and I am generally in)

Not bad overall. You wonder if Reichsmarschall Smith will somehow convert to the other side, try to get Thomas back from the other side. Smiths charachter was developed well this season

Man in the High Castle is back with Season 3. It didn't occur to me at first that Netflix would just release the whole season at once. So far very good. Some interesting twists in the show.

Netflix out with a look at Italy during the ear of Italian republics. Slightly less extravagant look than the Borgias but still pretty cool - Medicis; Masters of Florence

Dustin Hoffman - Richard Madden (Robb Stark in GoT) - Brian Cox and others

Was binging Bourdain's old shows and it got depressing seeing him change the past season.
