I thought that was obvious due to all the previous cheekiness in this thread.

I'm hoping for a miracle here, but i'll keep in mind the internet's reaction to Heath Ledger's casting as the Joker and McConaghay in the first season.

Vince Vaughn is amazing. I'm just hoping Colin doesn't suck. Because he has never been good.

I have faith they'll come up with another brilliant season, and that the director can coax some great acting out of Colin. Maybe it's too much to hope for, but I'm an optimist.

He made WH and MM. I'm open minded as well. Not so sure about Taylor Kitsch....

Are they keeping the same director? That would be a huge coup for the show.

I was surprised at MM's performance! I had him pegged for romantic comedies and all sorts of action cheesy movies. Dallas Buyer's Club is on this month on HBO and I heard good things about it.

I have Dallas Buyer's Club DVR'd. I'm waiting for the right opportunity to sit down and watch it. I'm hoping MM gives as good a performance as he did in TD.

Everyone I know who watched it was impressed. I'm not going to wait though, I'll just see it on HBO go. Supposedly Jennifer Garner is not so bad herself.

I may have preferred Wes Anderson over Justin Lin.

Justin Lin? The Fast and Furious director? Sure he can direct action and car chases.....

Hooo boy, lets see how this goes.

 Texas forever, that's all i have to say...

And seriously you all think Farell is such a mess for the part ? It's not a bad thing to be french sometimes cause our movie actors are so lame (there are exceptions but really french acting = blank acting) that i find him quite allright.

I think he'll be alright. But I'm can't get over Vince Vaughn... Just terrible. I hope he gets a chance to redeem himself like McConifggcfhhdd did

I watched that Google movie and man, does it turn me off of TD2. That guy is a rom com actor these days. Maybe TD will work its magic again and turn around his career.

The first two eps, Ry. Also expecting to see some famous female actress to join the cast by the looks of it. I'm betting for a female cop to balance the cast and team up with Ferrell's character.

Yeah I am ready to leave preconceived notions behind, HBO knew they had a good thing with season 1 and they are certainly not gonna gamble it away for season 2.

Sorry guys, I didn't realize there was already a thread for this topic, but thanks for redirecting me. It was brilliant. Agree with Rygar, this is exactly my type of show. Look forward to the second season. MM was brilliant and WH too.

You know I just realized it now. The reason why the first two thirds of the series jumps all over the place is beca se they are referring to past events. And like your memory, it's not always linear. Once they catch up to the present the style changes. Brilliant technique. I've heard people complain about the difference, as if the first 2/3 was better because it was stylistically different than the norm and then it just became a cop drama at the end. It's always been a cop drama. Lol.

But I thought that was understood, Ry. Where did you read such complaints? It was obvious the rhythm marked the change from flashbacks to different periods (some of them you could see in make up and clothes nevermind the actual storylines), to real time crime.

Some people felt that the last third wasn't as clever as the first two.

 You nailed.it, Ry. lots of people were overthinking it from the start, me included. all those crazy theories, they were fun to engage in though, but i wasnt disapointed with the end, i liked the whole season.

What some people complained also, was Rustin change from pessimistic almost to the point of nihilism to an optimistic at the very end, they weren't convinced. Well, the way i see it, the near death experience caused the change, and that is enough for me. Not sure about the spoiler policy, so i ask the mods to please edit this with the spoiler tags if im breaking the rules.

I'll admit it. I watched it every time it was on after Broadwalk. It's just that good. I missed a few eps though. I might watch on HBO Go what I missed.

It wouldn't be an HBO show without some gratuitous nudity.

I am optimistic, the only thing I am worried about is Vince Vaughn, that guy is terrible in almost everything he is in.

Colin Farrell looks like he will pull some good stuff. I always liked him. Hollywood tried to push him as the "it" guy for a while and it never took off. Lets hope he brings his A game here.

Is it bad that the trailer's song was more interesting than the trailer?

Wedding Crashers meets Mean Girls with shitty Gambit thrown in.

We will see.
