TV Shows

just the first ep is going up

and people love this war move shtein. hbo spent 200 mil on this so they need to get the word out

[ice grillin you]

so basically they tease you with the first ep to try and get you to purchase hbo

[MDS]

yes. its a pretty standard business practice.

i couldnt care less about the pacific but i just saw the new trailer for treme and holy farg i might need to suck up the 15 a month and get it. david simon. jew. god.

IGY, I think he's trying to refrain from telling you that just because YOU'RE not a war movie guy, doesn't make the series overrated or any less great.

But we've already had plenty of people telling you your opinion isn't always fact, so I will also refrain from taking the bait.

[ice grillin you]

a WAR movie will not be as good to someone who doesnt like WAR movies vs. someone who does like WAR movies

if it was anyone else id be flabbergasted at even having to explain this...with you...not so much


just like a series about coloreds from inner city baltimore no matter how far and away better it is than the second best show of all time would have zero appeal to you...unlike say a western set in 1870's south dakota that centers around cowboys


no matter how hard this all hurts your brain...it really isnt difficult

the acting, writing, and cinematography on that series were literally the best ever produced on television.

I agree. Right up to and when they walked into Hitlers Eagles Nest, some of the best cinematography I've ever seen on TV. BoB was almost as much a great lesson in history as it was a great television series.

you guys can see the difference between an actual tv show and a stand alone miniseries?

[Sgt PSN]

and romey its not bait...if youre a war movie guy i cant totally see drooling over bob...but im not

the fact that you admit that you're not into war movies is what makes you calling it overrated so headbangingly funny/annoying.  it'd be like me, who has repeatedly said how much i don't like hockey and never watch it, started saying that this player or that team is overrated even though i have no idea what the hell i'm talking about.   

tell me you can't see why people are taking issue with what you're saying here.

I'm just commenting on how good Bob was. Not camparing it to the Wire, which I've only seen the first 2 disk's of from Netflix. Obviously the Wire is great TV or it wouldn't still be on.

The point is Bob was some of the best TV ever, mini series or long running show, it doesn't matter.

Please read what Sarge wrote, and stop trying to play the race card yet again.


The amazing part is how blind you are being to your own stupidity....again.

You're wasting your typing skills. No one can say anything about any show on TV being great without a two page sermon from Mutt and Jeff about the farging Wire being the absolute best thing thats ever been on TV.

[MDS]

im not doubting that, but BOB was essentially a 10 hour movie. its not really a tv show.

and whatever it was the wire was better and thats not even up for debate.

1) Band of Brothers
2) The Wire

Thanks everyone have a good night.

[mussa]
