GORDO Posted May 13, 2010 Share Posted May 13, 2010 dude, the show began with a plane being ripped in half and almost everyone surviving and then there's a smoke monster. if you thought there was an adequate scientific explanation for what's happening on this show (OMG HAVE YOU DUDES HEARD ABOUT NANOMACHINES?!) then that's your own fault. and if you're going to cite a quote from damon lindelof, well then congratulations, you allowed yourself to be manipulated by promotional material to expect something you shouldn't have. it's not a matter of it being unbelievable it's a matter of it being done poorly. if it's done right you won't care about how unbelievable it is.

Guest Mirezzi Posted May 14, 2010 Share Posted May 14, 2010 Shut up and make more films, stop talking about anything.... No money. There's only Avatar and YouTube these days. There's nothing in the middle. Television is getting ready to turn to shit, too. Everything is just dictated by the real time response of fans/idiots as they log onto Facebook to talk about their addiction. "OMG BEST EPISODE EVER, I LOVE THIS SHOW" etc. etc. etc. I remember when X-Files producers decided to name a character after one of their biggest online internet enthusiasts. That was the death knell for television. These shows are so wildly popular that $$$ starts dictating the outcomes of storylines. None of these American shows know how to bow out gracefully while on top because producers are too fucking greedy and the fans are too slavishly devoted to care one way or the other. *last post* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most of these sad fuckers are still drinking the kool-aid! how many things that run for a long time do end satisfyingly, though? off the top of my head i can only think of the sopranos and six feet under and six feet under was starting to drop the ball in the last season, so cut it which probably made it most affecting ending ever for me maaaan, i bawled my fuckin eyes out at it, it destroyed me. i rewatched the last episode of the sopranos lately it is incredible. the setup for the last scene - it is art.

The UK Office. Why? It was short, sweet, and pitch-perfectly punctuated by the two part x-mas special. Then of course.......there's the fucking American one. It sucked right out of the gate, but it has gone on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on..... Most television shows are horrible for the last few seasons as the flavor leaves the chewing gum. The Sopranos was interesting because Season 5 was outstanding, but seriously, Season 6 was almost unwatchable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Atop Posted May 14, 2010 Share Posted May 14, 2010 Sopranos ending is overrated imo.... The Walking Dead should be fun.... Breaking Bad is pretty fucking good... at least Lost is ending and not going on forever, whether or not you like the ending or the show or whatever....
