That last episode left me with no nails! lol
- I know... had me on edge of my seat... scarfed like 3 McDLT's, chased w/ a 2L of Crystal Pepsi, 3 bags of Pop Rocks and a pack of Popeye cigarettes!prophetone
- hahahasea_sea

So rare is it that you sit down and watch something that you know instantly was a labour of love and not some board room project (aka preacher).
The photography is superb and the directors blocking is perfect, editing just flows and the actors feel like they are just living and breathing their roles effortlessly.
The intro in the start is fucking perfectly made.
I'm at like eposide 7 or 8 or Preacher and sort of like it and I'm a massive fan of the comics - but I just watched 3 of this and addicted.
Only minor complaint is sometimes its cliche when it doesn't need to but hey ho cant have everything.
Loving the creature. Again God I'm a nerd!
- Instead of cliché I would say it has the perfect formula to give it the 80s feeling we are so accustomed to, and it's great.Maaku
- wow - it's good but not that good. watch It Follows if you enjoy VHS/Betamax nostalgia.fadein11
- Loved "it follows".
I just love the blocking, editing flow and the DI work!mugwart - It Follows was ok ... nice visuals and amazing score but the story?!? meh.Ramanisky2

Loved it

perfectly captures that 80's vibe
- This intro looks so much like something Greyscale Gorilla would do, totally awesomeGeorgesII
- Reminds me of the Halt and Catch Fire intro, which was also an '80s period show, and an excellent one at that.

Trying to avoid any semblance of spoiler on here, but wanted to post a link to the guys who did most of the synth music. I've only watched the first episode last night, but the music is fantastic and just so perfect for this show.

tv shows are slowly killing movies, lots of people around me say they kind of dont want to listen to movies anymore.. everyone wants tv shows.
- Sad but trueApeRobot
- hard to beat the good ole 2 hour format though. And this although good does feel like TV a lot of the time.fadein11
- 2 hours is super short and we dont have time to really get into charaters' mind and psychology.Bennn
- erm - the hundreds of classic films of the past may be evidence to the contrary. And let's face it this isn't about characterisation is it?fadein11
- watching 80 hours of Breaking Bad is a lot of time to get into the characters mind and psychology, no 2 hours films can beat that. Its mathematics.Bennn
- I'm not saying movies sucks. :) its just, different.Bennn
- yeah of course its different but you said TV is killing cinema... it really isnt - it just can make more money in the long run which is what its all about.fadein11
- cinema has been pronounced dead so many times and always comes back and its far from dead now anyway.fadein11
- and tell them they should watch and listen to movies - it can be so dull just listening lol. (sorry)fadein11
- yeah 'listen' is a bad french to english translation, my bad ;)Bennn
- i know - sorry.fadein11
- you better be sorry! ;PBennn
- Front page material.ApeRobot
- Yeah fuck movies!yuekit
- Most TV becomes formulaic and predictable, breaking bad was guilty of that like a mofo. A lot of deus ex machina used to move the plot forward. In a movie theyzarkonite
- would have tightened the plot to keep it focused and moving forward.zarkonite
- IE: Walt would go into killer mode, snap out of it become the uncertain persona and create a deadly problem and it would get solved with his smart persona.zarkonite

just started last night.. yep, so good.. sometimes cheesy, but then it comes in with the goods and it totally balances it..
but yep, Garth Marenghi written all over it.. said it like 3 times last night..

SPOILER (maybe?) I was a little bummed at the end, thinking it was just going to be one season but the last episode shows what looks like a posible continuation. I hope they do.

- The Stephen King one is a different flavor altogether.monospaced
- yep. I think they were going for that flavour but there were many 70's/80's horror films that used v.similar fonts to the title sequence.fadein11
- Yeah. Understood. But this typeface is extremely unique and recognizable. Not many like it.monospaced
- I never liked this font. I had it in 1994 at my first design job. It seemed very 70s and dated even then.CyBrainX
- Same here. First job in 1998 and it was part of the identity where I worked in college. Know it too well.monospaced
