The books are very good and chronicle a family of Lawmen. The author used to be one of my favourites. As with Elmore Leonard the scripts don't do justice to the original book. A new movie based on the excellent writer James Lee Burke is due to be released but sadly reviews do not bode well. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well series 3 has a new female detective ,she is black,Muslim woman with white boyfriend ,she has a disabled son he is deaf her son had a white girlfriend so yipee so many boxes ticked,????lol. Lets hope the story holds up Suspension of disbelief, essential to enjoying fiction/drama becomes impossible with such clumsy 'identitarian wokecasting' but some people love it 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I watched the first two episodes of Gilded Age and agree its a good show. There is a black lady playing a black character. They correctly show the discrimination such a character would have faced then. There is a closeted gay couple where the actor's sexuality is irrelevant. They correctly showed their need to be closeted in that era. There was nothing box ticking or alternative casting of these characters in that historical setting. The story lines of these characters add to the richness of the series. Educated blacks and closeted gays were not unusual in the New York of that era. While I do understand objections to Henry the 8th being played by a Polynesian trans man I see no fair objection to the inclusion of the above characters in Gilded Age.

The Hammer2021 Posted February 5, 2022 Share Posted February 5, 2022 Jack Reacher Series 1 E1 starts with impeccable music, Howling Wolfe-Smokestack Lightening and thankfully introduces us to a more accurately cast Reacher than the ludicrous Tom 'Tiny' Cruise. Accurate casting is important and like editing and camerawork is an essential part of quality, realistic TV drama movies. Alan Ritchson plays Reacher and is a suitably neutral actor, a blank canvass for the Reacher character. I would have preferred Jim Caviezel of POI fame. It remains to be seen if this attempt at cinematographic interpretation of the book Reacher book series works...I have my doubts but also my hopes 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

seedy Posted February 6, 2022 Share Posted February 6, 2022 17 hours ago, Jingthing said: You and others invite rebuttal by endlessly posting inflammatory anti diversity right wing propaganda complete with canned knee jerk terms like woke. You want to post off topic garbage like that and cancel anyone that calls you out for it? How is that fair? Also talking about identity box ticking. I assert that those making and posting such bigotry inspired lists are the real box tickers here. What a perverted way to view shows. Making lists of any characters that aren't non Muslim straight white people in relationships with other non Muslim straight white people and then posting such white nationalist stained lists as legitimate reviews. In a historical drama to have the characters so misplaced makes the whole film an exercise in PC to the detriment of the story. A black general of Scotland in the 1600's ? If it was fiction, or drama - go for it. And I know black people have been in Great Britain since Roman times. Go make a film about a black trumpeter in Henry 8 court - at least it is true. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Jingthing Posted February 6, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted February 6, 2022 (edited) "Curses" to the person that suggested Bates Motel. It runs several seasons, is pretty trashy, but now I'm totally addicted. Tragic. It's not really must see tv for anyone but its insidious how such guilty pleasure type shows can suck you in.
