Re: Fargo
Just watched the sixth episode, what was there that made you think this is violence porn? o_O
With that said, i actually saw episode 7 too, and it had a much better example on how to show a very violent scene. That is how you do it. With a little imagination, instead of going for the close-up slowmotion rub-your-face-in-it shots.
Re: Fargo
Then you better stay away from Hannibal if you consider violence in this "Uncomfortable".
I AM staying away from Hannibal just for that reason. Everything made about Hannibal Lecter turned into violence porn from the movie Hannibal back in 2001. The first movie Silence of the Lambs was not anything like that, and also the best one.
Re: Fargo
It seems you're more into this so called "violence porn" than you would admit...I think about 90% of the stuff on my watchlist also would be deemed inappropriate by you - lol
No, i am not into that aspect of it but i like much of the rest of Fargo. I like the story, actors, scenery and all that. That was why i could not keep away.
And yeah probably i would not like much of the stuff you watch.
Re: Fargo
I think it had a different tone, to show that a year had passed and lots of things had still not been resolved, but obviously lots of things had changed too. Still 2 eps left though...
I personally think it's a great show, it's so laid back and kind of chilled out, despite some of the hard-core stuff that happens.
Re: Fargo
Yeah, I did not see the point or motivation for that confrontation in the Vegas hotel. What was going on with that?
Re: Fargo
Lester is now a very different person. He's very confident and not a pussy like he was before. Plus he'd just picked up an award for being top dog at his firm and he'd been drinking.
Re: Fargo
Not being a pussy is one thing, being suicidal is quite another.
Re: Fargo
Decent finale. I liked it. Hope the creators do another installment. Tell another story etc, I really liked the atmosphere and acting quality.
Re: Fargo
I believe there is going to be another season but not with any of the season 1 characters. That may change as apparently the final decision has not been made yet.
Re: Fargo
Great show, probably my current #2 after Game of Thrones.
Re: Fargo
Finally getting round to watching this over the next few days, after reading the comments I have high hopes for it
Re: Fargo
You will not be disappointed. Many of us were skeptical, but the show proved to be a most excellent effort and a worthy successor to the original Fargo. Not a continuation of the movie, but in the same "universe" and style. The creators of the movie were involved in the TV show and liked how it came out.

Re: Fargo
Yah, I just watched the movie for the first time and loved it mostly for the dark humour. Downloading the show right now.
The movie is better because it has that dark humour. The show is also good in many ways but you will get disappointed because it is much more dark and much less humour. It also has much more graphic violence that i felt was unnecessary. Other than that it is good. It (the tv-show) is also less realistic but that is not really a flaw, it is just different than the movie which is very realistic. Tv and movies do not have to be realistic, it is art. I generally prefer the style and feel of the movie though.

Hmmm, I don't think i agree with any of that!
Re: Fargo
5 episodes in (hopefully watch 1 or 2 more later) and im really enjoying it.
Re: Fargo

Well, we all have different taste. I probably should have written that maybe xrnzaaas won't like it as much since that is how i felt about it and i also liked the movie for the same reason xrnzaaas mentioned. But you never know, some people don't feel that way.
Re: Fargo
Well once we started getting closer to the end we couldn't stop watching, that was brilliant
Re: Fargo
So we have to wait all the way to October before the new season? That's OUTRAGEOUS - and I can't WAIT!!!
And am gonna miss Lester and Lorne....allthough an all new cast might be a good thing - we will see
