Finally finished the series and I thought it was fucking superb. The episode where Rust went undercover was one of the best things I have ever seen and I thought the finally was great as well. I really don't see how they can top this season but I am definitely excited to see them try.

If it works for the plot, I say each season is required to have a 6-minute tracking shot

The bad guy they actually catch appears in Delivery Man as the slightly disgruntled owner of coffee shop. But, thank to this role, he's terrifying on sight.

Also, you should not watch the American version of Delivery Man unless you have a crush on Vince Vaughn dating back to the mid-90s.

Is there a non-american version of Delivery Man, and is it better for some reason? I'm assuming the answers are yes and yes since you mentioned it. But I can't imagine what would be different or better. We're talking about the movie where he has like 300 kids through donating sperm, right?

Sorry to derail the thread, this just really piqued my interest.

Edit: NM, I understand now. I thought you were saying there's a different cut of the movie that was released overseas. Now I get that it's a remake of another movie (which I didn't know).

I don't know if he mentioned it in that interview above (haven't read it), but I read an interview with him recently where he said there's a good chance there will be no more than 3 seasons.

Since it's him that does all the writing and every season requires re-casting, re-establishing/retaining an audience, etc. He said it's too much and he doesn't think he can do it indefinitely.

I'm paraphrasing based on memory, don't hang me if something is slightly off. But the sentiment was that regardless of how well it does moving forward, he doesn't foresee more than one-two more seasons.

^ I heard that too and I am fine with it as long as what he does for three seasons is as solid as S1. Sure beats the hell out of something like the abortion that Dexter turned into.

^, ^^ it is addressed in that interview, he says he only has 3 seasons in him, but I don't know if that means there is no option for others to take over some writing and have him just stay on as executive producer or something, right now he is doing a ton of stuff by himself

I don't even think about it that way.

Even if the next season sucks, we still got some kickass entertainment already.

Somebody else can come along and do something awesome.

I'm still holding out hope for my spinoff idea from page 2

Quote :
"I love this show so much.

But I would still watch religiously if it were just based on older Rust living behind a bar, drinking everyday, and talking about his views on life and all things They could call it L-I-V-I-N as a Puppet in the Gutter"

Can't believe nobody has posted this yet

Quote :
"After months of rumors and memes, many details about True Detective Season 2 are now being reported by multiple outlets. Most notably, the Wrap reported yesterday evening not only on the actors who are either “in talks” or “being eyed” for the lead roles, but also on what those roles will supposedly be.

Colin Farrell is “nearing a deal to star,” Jeff Sneider writes, while Taylor Kitsch is “angling for the role” of a California Highway Patrol officer and Elisabeth Moss is “being eyed” for the part of a Monterey sheriff. Finally, Vince Vaughn is “in talks to play the central antagonist,” a part that, according to Sneider, was written by series creator Nic Pizzolatto with Vaughn in mind.

Sneider also says that he has obtained a breakdown of the Season 2 storyline, which he describes thusly (possible spoilers follow, of course):

The second season of True Detective will follow the death of Ben Caspar, the corrupt city manager of a fictional California city who’s found brutally murdered amid a potentially groundbreaking transportation deal that would forever change freeway gridlock in the state. Three law enforcement officers from different cities and branches of the government are tasked with finding out who did it. They soon discover their investigation has much broader and darker implications than they initially thought.
Caspar’s 52-year-old corpse is found on a lonely stretch of Pacific Coast Highway near Big Sur—satanic symbols etched on his chest. It turns out he had a penchant for rough sex and may have been involved in the occult.
The three investigators are the Farrell, Kitsch, and Moss characters, apparently, and they all—in keeping with the first installment of the series—have personal demons: Farrell’s character “has been damaged by years of turmoil,” the Monterey sheriff (Moss, maybe) has taken to “gambling and alcohol,” and the CHP officer (Kitsch, perhaps) was “put on leave after soliciting” sexual favors from a woman he pulled over for drunk driving. (That last detail, along with a few others, seems to have disappeared from the Wrap story—but you can find it quoted from the original version of the story elsewhere.)

Vaughn’s character, meanwhile, is “a former thug turned businessman” working with local politicos on “a high-speed railway system” that would run along the California coast and provide a variety of financial opportunities, or something. This account of the plot seems to match Pizzolatto’s earlier remark that Season 2 would be about “hard women, bad men and the secret occult history of the United States transportation system.” (It also matches a description provided by Film Divider a few weeks ago.)

That said, none of this has been officially confirmed by HBO, and the Wrap story does not say that any of the actors have actually signed on just yet. But executives from the network did say last month that casting details would arrive soon, so official news is likely forthcoming before long."

Wife and I just finished the season last night. I had it for a bit and even watched the first episode a couple weeks ago, but we really picked it up this past weekend and got so into it we watched the last three episodes last night. Great binge watching show, especially with it only being eight episodes.

After hearing great things about this show, I started watching this last night. I was pretty captivated by the first episode.

So I'll avoid this thread until I've binge watched the entire season. But this looks really cool.

I was wondering how they were going to have more story to tell after the first season. I guess this is going to be like American Horror Story.... a show i stopped watching after the first season.

What you mean "more story"? It's going to be a completely different story. And if you ditched AHS after one season you're missing out.

Sadly, looks like season 2 won't be out soon enough to start when season 1 started...so closer to 1 1/2 years rather than 1

I'm betting he will surprise. He was tapped to play a specific role for a reason...


Although damn, I didn't know he was one of those people:

Quote :
"On December 5, 2012, it was announced that Vaughn is working on a project with Peter Billingsley and Glenn Beck called Pursuit of the Truth for TheBlaze TV.[13]"

Colin Farrell is going to kill it. I am excited. I think it will be good again but not as exceptional as the first season. Should be a very good watch (hopefully) regardless.
