We know that you utter a cry of disgust when you see these characters of series

sivertime — Tue, 25 Apr 2017 18:31:26 +0000

Some series you like to death, as much as you hate one of his characters. Paradoxical, but possible. The proof with these names that venerate you directly.
Like an epidermal reaction, you do not control, it comes by itself. You grimace, you groan, you insult the character itself. And you certify that he deserved this fucker! Pardon, this hurluberlu that runs you on the beans. Like a big popcorn, I swing the names.
Piper Chapman (“Orange is the new black”)
At first it played an important role. It was wanted and it made sense. Then once she joined the prison, we started to get tired. Worse, Piper got us drunk. Always complaining , never happy, blase, with the wheeze of the eyes … Even the creators realized this and its importance decreased from season to season. For the well-being of everyone.
Marnie Michaels (“Girls”)
In a word: detestable. So it has what it deserves, people hate it. Sometimes life is logical and reassuring. Egoist, ball-pigeon, everything must always revolve around her . Even the series …. While Hannah, Shoshanna and Jessa are waiting for you despite their faults, Marnie proves to you again and again that she is unmanageable.
Anthony Soprano Jr (“The Sopranos”)
His aunt Janice is also a mega-annoying character. But at least they bring something. He, frankly, is rather a ball. Apart from being rotten spoiled, whining, missing his suicide … It serves no purpose. Bengous could say to him: “Oh the minot there, go and get you framed!”
Lori Grimes (“The Walking Dead”)
Quite quickly, she showed herself reluctant. And since that lasts. Then it has at least the merit of being constant, predictable. In its heaviness. She chains the ideas to the con (to walk in the apocalypse of zombies), whining, manipulations, changes of opinion, while being a mother far from models of the kind … Besides, when one does not see her , We’re doing better. It’s nasty but it’s true.
Vincent Chase (“Entourage”)
The guy sends a vacuum. He breathes emptiness. While all drama and glamor are supposed to revolve around him, Vinny does not release more than a salad . Ari, Eric, Turtle and Drama make you kiffer, laugh, interest you. He can not stand it anymore. A Hollywood star’s cameo is proving to be unbearable. And in truth, nobody would go see movies with this actor there.
Betty Draper (“Mad Men”)
Don’s ex-wife plays well the cold and useless chick. Some say it’s good because the actress who plays it, January Jones, can only do that. Well, no personal attacks! Let’s stay on the series, where Betty clearly misses the check mark to take more importance. It is there, it undergoes, does nothing, we could do without it. They even tried to get rid of it. The creators will find the lung cancer blow, hard. But seriously, we would have liked her to make us react like Skyler in “Breaking Bad” but Betty was really too nazy.
Ziggy Sobotka (“The Wire”)
A huge series, filled gangster, mobsters, complex characters, with intrigues in every way. And you’ve got Ziggy, an asshole without much interest. Son of the patron of the port, he takes advantage of his advantages to survive and is content to make shit. Fake bad boy, he does not ensure a joke level business, has only funny ideas, gets up in the air. Then he cracks on the weak, kills a duck by stuffing his mouth, passes his nerves on poor people … A little shit how annoying. The kind of guy with whom you do not want to drag, too con and too rude. Which one do you hate the most?

The series that any biker in the soul must mater

sivertime — Mon, 24 Apr 2017 20:19:23 +0000

Already because you are going to kiffer, then because there are not 10,000 possibilities, must be lucid. Here are the series where you see and hear betetar de betons.
Broum, broum, broouuumm! Aaah those who like to ride in two wheels, and more particularly by motorcycle, go to kiffer! The soft sound of the engine, the beautiful leather jackets, the characters not at all clichés, landscapes … Everything our friends bikers will remake now that the sunny days have come back.
Sons of anarchy
A Charming, small town in California, the Sons of Anarchy Motorcycle Club Redwood Original runs the business. Both respected and feared, they make the rain and the good weather. With their code of honor, they maintain order . And precisely, when a struggle of territory engages between dealers and traffickers of arms, there is a job! Especially for Clay and Jackson (who runs the garage), the president and vice-president.
The bikers of space
Animated cartoon in the first part of the 90s, it was a delirium. The famous bikers of space are human-sized mice named Modo, Throttle and Vinnie . Let us admit. In addition, they drive semi-intelligent bikes, chipped on their planet Mars before disembarking on Earth. To do what ? We save Plutarchians, fishmen who have just destroyed their planet and want to do the same with us. So the bikers will defend us!
The rebel
The great art served by the great actor Lorenzo Lamas! Without being a fan of a motorbike, you remember his ganache, his long hair and his pace of falling on two wheels. At the base cop, Reno Raines wants to leave his taf at the request of his wife. History of leaving in beauty, it wants to denounce all the hoodlums of the post. Bad idea. The bastards release a guy to kill him, their plan starts in lollipop but Reno finds himself obliged to flee, accused of murder. He then engages in races pursuits in the United States, with strokes of handlebars and bastons, between Reno, shoemakers, other lascars …
At full throttle
With the title, we know what we are talking about! And when you mate the cartoon, like, no feint. Everyone loves the bike. Teddy Tojo who saves the life of Teddy Santarini and his mother, attacked … by bikers, Alexander the cousin of the second Teddy, Mia the sister of the first and Nathalie the nurse who treated him after an accident. Obviously, rivalry between the two Teddy wagons that heat up in competition , with love story intrigues to vary a bit of motorcycle racing.
Chips
A former car broadcast between 1977 and 1983 in the States, on NBC, before arriving in France. Two cops, Poncherello and Baker, are patrolling the California Highway Patrol, tracking the road robbers and delinquents around Los Angeles. For those interested, they drive in Kawazaki KZ 900 the first two seasons, before moving to a KZ 1000 C4 then full of other bikes , including Harley. Six seasons and 139 episodes, it makes you hours of motorcycle to watch. Have you ever had one? And hot to test another?

Frankly, if these series come back today, we watch them direct

sivertime — Fri, 21 Apr 2017 18:23:04 +0000

Knowing that we’ve already seen them, eh. One only wants to go back hours, with their characters and their delusions. In binge watching mode.
We are ready to pass on the outfits and haircuts, sign that we really like them. Because we are not going to lie either, it was a bit lollipop sometimes the 90s. But at least the guys were creative, inventing things. Whether it’s music (hip-hop, grunge), cinema (special effects), in our life (internet): quite a few devolutions took place in the 90’s. Here we focus on the best series, the ones we would look at again from beginning to end if they were to go back (completely and in the right direction, eh, not like the police series on TF1 at random) on TV or on Netflix.
Buffy the Vampire Slayer
According to the credits that sends pate, she is the “elected” of her generation, she “will face the vampires, demons and force of the evil”. Aloooors, what are you gonna do? Yeah, you can get carried away when you’re a kid, deep inside. Today, we would be calmer, of course. But Buffy Summers, the high school girl who defies the vampires, and this series where we had a perfect mix : action, horror, comedy, romance, and even a fighting hair in martial arts mode.
Friends
No feint, no false suspense. It is a direct balance, and everyone understands why. How do you dodge the series we grew up with? While Ross, Chandler, Joey, Monica, Rachel and Phoebe were doing the same, in Manhattan? A sitcom like we love them, funny, lively, which makes us spend a good time. 10 seasons? Yes, and then, when one loves one does not count.
Angela, 15 years old
Only one season, but 19 episodes of 44 minutes. So not nothing, actually. A teenage thing, it’s clear, since you’re Angela (boom, the title is well done) and her states of fluctuating souls. And when you are yourself in this state of mind, you feel understood , it helps you , you want to know how the characters manage … And it is also there that we discovered Claire Danes and Jared Leto, still.
The Prince of Bel-Air
Aaaah, serious, unforgettable! The bars that were typed in front of TV note (cathode ray tube) thanks to this series. A young person from the poor suburbs of Philadelphia landed at his uncle, Phil Banks, and his wealthy family. A change of world, Bel-Air is something else! Will Smith exploded with his role as … Will , and we still remember Carlton’s dances.
Sabrina, the apprentice witch
From 1997 onwards, in France, on France 2 screens first, then other channels more obscure (Canal J, Filles TV and Gulli). Sabrina was “normal” until her 16th birthday, when she discovered her magical powers . Coached by her two aunts, but far from her simple mortal mother, she learns to master her gifts. And talk with the cat, Salem, quiet. In addition to Sabrina’s special assignments, you also saw how she got into high school and all the problems of that age.
Malcolm
Already because we do not get tired of it. Reese’s bullshit, Dewey’s manipulations, Malcolm’s whimper, Francis’s follies, Jane’s anger and Hal ‘s bumps … What a champion in the family! And now, it would be even more crazy to see Bryan Cranston again in his role as a family father, benet, who undergoes the law of his wife, after seeing him completely possessed in Breaking Bad.
Married, two children
To get a little out of the classic teenage stories, nothing better. This series with the very special family father Al Bundy was a kind of accelerated training to become a beauf . Sitting in the couch, hand in the calbar, rasping, inattentive towards his wife or his kids, always a binouz in the other hand (the one that is free): the portrait of the guy that all women dream. Do like him and you’re not near sin. Which would you like to see again at all costs?

Nobody can be as stupid as these cartoon characters

sivertime — Tue, 18 Apr 2017 18:18:15 +0000

We all know people who have trouble spending their money, trying instead to keep it for themselves. But not at that point anyway.

This is vice, clearly. Especially that the characters in question are far from being in galley! But hey, it seems that it makes sense, the more you have, the more you want. And the more you need it. In any case, these characters really do not like spending their money.
The Count of the Lemongrass (“Adventure time”)
Not only does he not share, but in addition he is persuaded to do good to people by taking things from them . The result of a failed experiment of Princess Chewing-Gum, it remains supported by it at all costs. Master of his kingdom, where only people of his appearance are dragged, he fout his kingdom regularly in difficulty, especially by his unlimited and sickly egoism. He likes to yell “Unacceptable !” When it takes. Often.
Dc Thaddeus Venture (“The Venture Brothers”)
Scientist frustrated not to know the same success as his father, drugged and hooked, he tries stuff. Only in interest, of course . And it’s pretty fucking. As when it constitutes an army from unqualified students, who eventually become mutants.
Stan Pines (“Gravity Falls”)
Great-uncle of the twins Mabel and Dipper, he directs the strange trick of the Mystery Shack, in the town of Gravity Falls, Oregon. First hustler, he carrot tourists with attractions and tricks . An old embittered, big forceps, but who loves his family and keeps some good sides. We can be stupid and not a bad guy.
Montana Max (“Tiny Toon adventures”)
As a rotten boy, he is cruel and unbearable with others. Obsessed with money, he even inscribed on his door: ringing brings money. Poor at the grassroots, Max discovered wealth when his family won the Lotto and began to indulge. But only when it concerns his personal hobbies eh . The others may die.
Eugene H. Krabs (“SpongeBob SquarePants”)
Crab and successful entrepreneur of the restaurant The crusty crab, he has difficulty releasing the thune. When he goes out to an employee “I do not pay you to breathe” , the other replies “you do not pay us at all” … Every time it appears, there is a story of money . Intelligent, but stingy of a force, he thinks of that. Even with his daughter Pearl, he counts his pennies.
C. Montgomery Burns (The Simpsons)
This television producer was rated “Richest Drama Character” in 2013 , so believe me, his bank account is well stocked. At the head of many companies in Springfield, he manages the nuclear power plant. He accumulates the dollars, pay like shit his employees and exploits them thoroughly.
Balthazar Scrooge (The Adventures of Scrooge)
This Scottish duck loves money at a point, it’s unheard of. The guy is swimming in his thune, it’s his kiff. He is reluctant to help his family, dodging requests while he has millions of dollars … His argument comes from the fact that he recognizes the value of work, merit. Ok, that’s right, you have to say it. But it remains a sham. Reassure us, you do not know worse than them?

Better Call Saul is full of references to Breaking Bad, and we kiffe

sivertime — Mon, 10 Apr 2017 18:11:02 +0000

While awaiting the arrival of the 3rd season of the prequel, centered on the invaluable advocate, we compiled the easter eggs honoring the original series.
Knowing that a link existed between the two series is obvious. Already, basic, you know. That’s all. Then, the universe, the sets, the plans: you find plenty of things. Also characters, including future lawyer “Saul Goodman” or Mike. And it’s not over ! The first two seasons of the prequel are filled with references to her creator, the Breaking Bad series. Here are some easter eggs.
Jimmy bump into a Cinnabon
From the opening scene, boom: a black and white image where he is seen wearing a mustache and holding the perfect sandwich preparer: apron and cap showing the brand name (Cinnabon), gloves. Which brings us back to Season 5 (Granite State episode), when Walter and “Saul” discuss what to do next if we need to stop in case of emergencies . Jimmy / Saul balance that he will make low profile, that will make a taf hidden while changing identity. What taf? “In the best of cases, I run a Cinnabon in Omaha . ” That seems to have been done. And we hear that it is called “Gene” .
The manicure salon
Before landing in his fat office of Breaking Bad, Saul made with the means of the edge. And at the beginning, it was in a cramped room of Ms. Nguyen’s aesthetic salon, as seen in Better Call Saul. A universe for which he retains a certain tenderness since he proposes this as an idea to launder money . Two times. In season 3 (episode “Kafkaesque”), to Jessy. Then to Walter in season 5.
The desert as a place of death … or almost
It is impossible not to remember the episode, in the 5th and last season of Breaking Bad, where Walter humiliates his opponent by leaving him as coldly as authoritatively: “Say my name” . When it stank, it reverses the situation. Well, James / Saul does the same from the second episode, “Mijo”. His fucking plan to get under, with two losers, takes him into the wilderness, with a Tuco decided to all butt . And the talented orator of the future lawyer saves them.
The Marco Ring
Before moving to Albuquerque, to follow his brother, Jimmy lived in Chicago. Without going so far as to say that he made the 400 shots, he made some bad ones. With his buddy Marco, precisely. The two lascars squatted a bar, unrolled their combine to draw money from businessmen, and life was rolling. In Better Call Saul, Jimmy goes back a few days in Chicago, finds his buddy and they make a final blow together. When Marco died of a heart attack. This is where Jimmy gets his ring, at the request of the deceased, after the funeral. The ring he carries to the little finger of the left hand in Breaking afterwards . And that symbolizes his penchant for scams.
Loyola’s Family Restaurant
Mike’s privileged location when he has to set an important appointment. In Breaking Bad, it is Jessy (season 4) and Lydia (season 5) who find it there. In Better Call Saul, we see Mike go there and obviously be a regular . At ease, he speaks with the waitress, limiting a little flirting. And it is there that he meets Hector Salamanca, who offers him an offer that he can not refuse. The creators pushed vice by using this restaurant as Jimmy’s meeting place with the Kettlemen family, as his office is a bit pitiful at this time.
The Casa Tranquila retirement home
This is where Jimmy inventes a specialist in the right of defense of the elderly, distributes his cards and seeks a big file to land the company that runs this barracks, and others in the country. And this Casa Tranquila is the same place where Hector Salamanca finds himself in Breaking Bad , when Tuco was killed. The old tent tries to build a plan to take revenge on Walter, Gus goes to see him, and so on. Until the moment when the two blow up their faces, especially Gus who gets trapped, by the craft bomb of Walter. This end of season 4, fucking. Who wants to complete with his finds (there are at least a dozen other references)?

These undercutting series deserve a little recognition of brothel

sivertime — Fri, 07 Apr 2017 18:19:28 +0000

Some things seem to deserve more attention and recognition, it starts with a good feeling. This is the case for these series.
For once it’s in the positive sense, it’s still better. Because generally, we leave more room for debate on the side stuff (players, movies, groups, games, etc.), so to the negative. Here we will be in positive criticism! And we will limit ourselves to the series of the last decade, otherwise we have not left the hostel (Spanish, or whatever you want).
The disastrous adventures of orphans Baudelaire
An original series launched on Netflix which despite the good reviews did not find its audience. A childish side with dances and songs, allowing Neil Patrick Harris to shine , and another very adult by his black and sarcastic humor. Too bad because it is really stylish. Suddenly, everyone spoke of “Stranger Things” and other series. But if you have time, try it, it’s the beauty of streaming: it’s available when you’re hot.
The Ricky Gervais Show
Basically it was a podcast and not just any one: one of the most popular. Then HBO wanted to adapt it in series, in animation mode. An original direction and a rather convincing result, giving a cartoon with punchlines of egg and crazy situations . Often when Stephen and Ricky handle Karl! But the three seasons did not make so many views that, the audience remained limited. At the same time, the broadcast schedules were not top.
Rick and Morty
Adored by a certain community of unconditional fans, ignored or downright unknown by others. Sad fate for one of the best comedy series, much less renowned than the Simpsons or Les Griffins. Basically , it’s a parody of “Back to the Future” where Doc is a drunk alcoholic and drugged, while Marty turns out to be a little unmanageable nervous, chaining chess . Very cynical, alternating wacky jokes and striking findings of justness, the series deserves more spectators and publicity.
Ghosts
A French series which is worth the detour, then it must be said. Dealing with death and resurrection, it clearly gives place to drama and reflection. With a good dose of stress, tension, discomfort! Basically, dead people come back to life, and go back to their lives before as if nothing had happened. Because they did not realize they were dead, actually … A very “rational” and psychological delirium that changes other zombie series where blood and gore prevail . There you cogitate and you anxiously. Still.
Love
A creation that one owes to Judd Appatow, best known for his films now, while he is the author of a few series mine of nothing. Alas all a little depreciated, like “Freaks and Geeks” or the latest in date, “Love”. Exploring the world of modern romance, with humor and intelligence , analyzing it and making it live without falling into easy criticism, the series shows us two endearing characters, Mickey and Gus. Which form a couple that one likes to look at and see evolve.
The Americans
Quality at all levels. Actors, plot, sets and costumes, photography … Really good work and a series that should be a reference at the moment. Located in the 1980s, the story shows two Russian spies sent to the United States to glean information and refer all this to the mother country . Under cover obviously, in normal and well-integrated American mode. The father is almost too much (he kiffe limits the capitalist delirium the rogue), the mother less, the children sympathize with children of agents of the FBI … Very interesting to watch, especially today with the frenzied communications On the influence of Putin during the American elections. Who can confirm that one of these series is worth it?

Fans of “Game of Thrones” imagine the worst possible ends and are hurting themselves

sivertime — Thu, 06 Apr 2017 19:20:08 +0000

More than thirteen episodes and the series will come to an end. One moment that the fans wait and dread at once! Like the possibility of a good rotten end.
It was on Reddit that the delirium took place. A guy (Shaylw) asked the question: “What is the worst way they could end the series?” And there, they are several fans to have swung their worst apprehensions, ending crappy and frustrating goods. Not to say annoying! It’s gone, selection of the best of the worst.
The blow of “in fact nothing happened”
– Bran wakes up and realizes that everything we saw was only his dream, since his fall from the tower
– Davos Mervault was only reading a book
– Bran uses her powers to tell her father, in the past, not to go with Robert. His father listens to him, and so nothing happens.
What end for Jon and “Dany”?
– Jon Snow and Daenerys congregate and inflict a defeat on the white marchers. At the end of the episode, they celebrate it with a banquet with all their companions. And the Sandsnakes take advantage of it to stop everybody and to ascend the throne of iron. Jon and Dany whistle together, melted black.
– Jon Snow empties his blood at the foot of Daenarys: “But why ?” – She: “The violent delights end violently .” The camera goes back until you see Westeros as a map, unfolded on a huge table. In front of which Bernard (who? Of Westworld? Delirious of the fan) and Mélisandre are, while Joffrey walks there, naked, and proposes to them hors d’oeuvres.
Any reference to Dexter would be fortuitous …
– Winter has arrived. Jon Snow is preparing to go to sea, under a crazy tempest, with very probably death at the end. We’re moving ahead, Oregon, much later. A silhouette can be seen in the distance, cutting wood with an ax, near a tree. It’s Jon Snow, who has since become a lumberjack.
Big fight and end
– Jon, Cersei and Daenerys meet at the Battle of the Trident for a gigantic confrontation between their respective armies. Suddenly, Bran comes back from behind the wall with a three-eyed crow or a bullshit of the kind and pulls out a tirade about the real enemy who happens to be the white walkers. Daenerys, who uses all of his dragons, then kills him. And hop, they all live forever happy, in the best of all worlds. Cersei may end up self-poisoning or being killed by a wild boar, or other delirium. Sam never becomes a magician.
– Littlefinger (Petyr Baelish, eh) won everything and sits on the iron throne. He settles comfortably, hunts some shadows, and cowards: “I could get used to it.” Fade to black.
Westworld Psychosis
– Anthony Hopkins disembarks as the final battle begins and begins to repair a faulty horse. The camera zooms out and is heard asking the animal / robot questions.
And we end with the proposition probably closest to the true end:
– Everyone is too busy to be whipped in every direction and no one is prepared to face the white walkers. Assessment: the end of the human race. Which makes you laugh the most?

Yes you had already seen Tuco, and not it is not that a mexican villain more

sivertime — Wed, 05 Apr 2017 20:30:40 +0000

The big uncontrollable of Breaking Bad seemed familiar to you without knowing why. Answer: Raymond Cruz has already turned quite a bit in recent years.
Yes, he’s an actor you’ve seen before! And yes, we speak well of Raymond Cruz, the actor, not of another. Because I see you coming: “Yeah, well all the chicanos have the same roles and the same draw in the movies anyway, frankly it’s hot to know …” We agree, they are often restricted to characters Mafia of low floor, to the caïds of the streets. But not only ! In short, Raymond Cruz is the proof.
Sniper in “Training Day”
One of the members of the gang who sequesters the young Jake (Ethan Hawke), abandoned by his crooked trainer Alonzo Harris (Denzel Washington). You can see the scenes again, you always stress. You feel the tension, the malaise, the whore in the place of the poor cop, you perspire with big drop. Notably because of Sniper / Raymond Cruz … The guy seems totally unmanageable, with violent attacks, primitive … An ability to blend into the character that would come from his family environment and his childhood: many uncles and loved ones were part of gangs Of Los Angeles, and he grew bathed in the clashes. With the bonus the vision of a guy shot in the head in front of him, with the skull exploding, twelve pins.
Julio Sanchez in “The Closer” and “Major Crimes”
As a detective this time, on the other side of the barrier. The suit, the tie, the air (a little) less aggressive … For several seasons, the series works well and the character of Julio Sanchez interests. Even intrigue. This is a sequel to a spin-off, called Major Crimes, in which one plunges into the detective’s past, in order to understand what motivates, trains and influences him . Fans liked, of course, Raymond Cruz too. “This shows how far we have been with this character and it is a just reward. It was beautiful .”
Ariel Castro in “Cleveland Abduction”
A TV movie that few of us will have seen, or just heard about. Logic. As for the fact of which he is inspired, you are necessarily aware of it. Remember in 2013, a certain Ariel Castro, a guy from Cleveland, who had sequestered three girls? On 6 May they had been found alive, and their abductor had gone to jail. Kidnapped in 2002, 2003 and 2004, the poor victims spent between 11 and 9 years in the cellar of the sick … Until the day when Amanda Berry alerts a neighbor of his cries, then another, and put an end to that. Raymond Cruz said: “It took me a month, afterwards, to get over it, move on, cut me off.” Like what, playing bastard is not necessarily easy.
Domingo Chavez in “Clear and present danger”
And he had to fight hard for that role! The casting manager did not want to receive it, give her, her chance, certain that it did not stick. Then Cruz motivated his agent, who called directly to the producers and he showed up at the audition . And boom, he bluffed the woman in question, redo it before another manager and bingo. A small role, like all his tafs of the 90s (including appearances in Steven Seagal’s films like Out for Justice and Under Siege), but a role managed as an ace. He was playing a sniper with the shitty character that was tapping on his superior’s system, and was not listening.
Distephano in “Alien: resurrection”
A real turning point. After the small roles (seen above), sometimes not even credited, the actor finally takes the edge! Finally a bit of actor scred ‘! In this movie, he plays a soldier and not just any one . Not the troufion that gets hit in ten seconds! Well, he dies anyway, but last, aboard the Auriga station. And after showing all the talent he has, what Jean-Pierre Jeunet had detected. The French director had rewritten the script to give more space to Cruz, fan of the actor.
Eladio Buente in “X-Files”
A sign of fate. Appearing in an episode of Season 4, as Chupacabra, Raymond Cruz takes just one more role. A role that seemed to him a snack, moreover, that he managed to camp by thinking that it was real , not just science fiction. In short, the important thing is his meeting with Vince Gilligan, the one who will write and produce Breaking Bad thereafter. The work pays, in the long run. So who remembers to have seen it now?

The Vampire Diaries Season 8: Top 10 Most Unnecessary Characters in the Series

sivertime — Tue, 04 Apr 2017 19:43:20 +0000

If Elena, Damon or Stefan marked a generation, other characters in The Vampire Diaries were useless. Discover our top 10 characters who would have done better to stay away from Mystic Falls!
Recently, we returned to the top 5 of the best villains of the series The Vampire Diaries. Klaus, Kai or Katherine have marked the spirits and will figure for a long time among the worst villains of the series of all genres. We were also pleased to find two of them in the Final Series of the show while Klaus is busy defeating a source of evil magic in season 4 of The Originals. The Vampire Diaries has introduced many characters during its eight seasons. While some are unforgettable although they have not always stayed in Mystic Falls for long, others have not left their fingerprints in the series. If they had not been there, it would have been the same! The editor of melty offers you to discover now the top 10 of the most useless characters of the vampire show of Julie Plec. Let’s go !
10. Matt Donovan
Although he was one of the main characters in the series, Matt was a rather useless character for 7 seasons. It was finally in season 8 of The Vampire Diaries that the character finally had an important role … It was perhaps a little too late !
9. Tyler Lockwood
Do not get me wrong, we like Tyler but honestly, the character was really far from essential to the series. It almost feels like it just existed because you had to have a werewolf in Mystic Falls. We will not talk about his return of 2 seconds in season 8 of The Vampire Diaries .
8. Beautiful
Poor Beau … He was so shy that he eventually became transparent . If this death was shocking, it was not really moving because it was simply a stranger.
7. Andie Star
A few days ago we came back to the 10 WTF love stories of The Vampire Diaries that had been forgotten . We were talking about one of Damon’s girlfriends and Jenna’s girlfriend, Andie Star. One doubts its usefulness to Mystic Falls!
6. Liam Davis
Liam, Elena’s boyfriend, was also far from unforgettable . He was just there to make Elena feel less alone waiting to find her memory.
5. Logan Fell
Honestly, you remember him? Logan was a journalist who had gone out with Jenna . He was killed by Damon before Vicki drinks his blood to complete his transformation. Become a vampire, he was killed by Alaric …
4. April Young
Apart from waking Rebekah from her sleep, it is not known why she appeared so long in the series . Maybe because Matt did not have a date yet for the prom?
3. Ray Sutton
He could have been a memorable character by becoming the first hybrid of Klaus’s army except that the latter became very ill and was killed by the original … Sad fate!
2. Megan King
Did Caroline and Elena’s roommate know about vampires? We will never know it since she was killed by Enzo before she had the opportunity to become interesting . Pity !
1. Monique
This character is so useless that we do not even know his surname . She pretended to be Sarah Salvatore because she was jealous of her life. We almost thank Enzo for having broken his neck to put an end to our suffering … And who do you think are the most useless characters in The Vampire Diaries?

We would have become friends with these TV monsters

sivertime — Fri, 31 Mar 2017 18:41:45 +0000

Supposed to be scary, they turn out quite funny and fun. What made us want to know them and hang out with them, when we had to be afraid.
An allegory of the appeal – against appeal. You think … and then it’s the other way around. A known blow and my faith always effective when it is well done, then why deprive it? There the writers create a monster that turns out to be a good paw. Gentile, funny, sensitive … So, once is not custom, one would have become a friend with him! Finally, with them, because we have several examples in mind more or less known.
Guy Mann (“X-Files”)
While Mulder and Scully think they are suing a big-footed villain for horrendous grizzly murders, who likes to turn into a monster, it’s the other way around. Guy Mann proves to be a lizard, at the base, before being bitten one day by a human . This gave him the ability to transform himself into a man and feel the same vicissitudes of life as our: to want to be recognized, loved. Not bad for a penny.
Clement (“Buffy the Vampire Slayer”)
Assumed to be a demon, Clement is a cream. Adoring Buffy and Dawn, playing poker-kitten with Spike, a loyal and devoted friend , he really does not deserve to be judged on his appearances. It’s true that his big ears dangling, his wrinkled skin and his growths grow back a bit, but “Clem” is a guy to the cool fact.
Five (“Seven Little Monsters”)
Fifth and last member of the twin siblings, Five taps a little on the system of the others. Already because one does not understand anything what he says, then because it connects the dumplings. As clumsy as hairy (mats his blue fur), Five apologizes to big strokes and asks for forgiveness with the smile and embarrassment of a child.
Cousin Itt (“The Addams Family”)
An energetic, especially from an aesthetic point of view. Extremely long hair hides the whole of his body, so much so that one does not know his face. His beret, his sunglasses in Beatles mode and his gloves are the only details visible . In addition, when he bargouines (with an English accent and a high-pitched voice), nothing is pinched. Except his family, including his cousin Gomez. In the end, he helps and visits everyone, so cousin Itt is accepted.
Herman Munster (“The Monsters”)
Creature born by Dr. Frankenstein – which is easily understood by the resemblance – Herman Munster left Germany at a very young age for England. Where it will be adopted by the noble family of Munster. In this series, this force of nature humps in the cemetery and does not disturb his colleagues too much. Above all, he becomes a good father, considerate, understanding, wielding irony and self-deprecation , loving to have fun like a child: balloon, toys, comics … and eating mass of pancakes cooked by his wife Lily.
Mr. Bumpy (“Bump in the night”)
As a big bug under the bed of a child, Mr Bumpy lives at night. It is the moment when he leaves his hiding place to play, to make jokes, to carry out perilous missions for his friends … Always persuaded that it passes, it tries everything. And sometimes , Mr. Bumpy just makes the gogole like your stuffed buddy, riding a plucked chicken or wearing a ridiculous wig . In spite of his appearance (fine limbs, 4 fingers with each hand, 2 toes with each foot), it has all the good buddy. Except that he likes to eat socks disguised or chewing gums already chewed.
Sweetums (“The Muppet Show”)
Of a high height, this hairy beast surpasses its human congeners, just as it often ruffles with its air constantly jaded and discontented. His bushy eyebrows (Fillon is a small player next to him) as well as his huge piss could make freak but Sweetums compensates by a passion for singing and dancing . Finally, this humble and sensitive monster loves to cuddle. Then as a beast of nightmare, we saw worse.
Cookie Monster (“Sesame street”)
Like an old-fashioned puppet of Guignols, covered with a thick blue fur, with the behavior of a kid. Of child, rather! Hardly able to express himself correctly ( “Me want cookie” ), with a limited vocabulary and a chaotic grammar, he simply eats whatever he can, all the time . Cookies if possible, if not what happens nearby. Much like the kids, they quickly loved Cookie Monster. If it were supposed to frighten them, the record is a failure. Which one would you choose?

Another series that tears, they are strong these Amé … ah bah no it is not ricain

sivertime — Mon, 27 Mar 2017 19:31:09 +0000

Reflex, when a series has good reviews, it is assumed that it comes from the States. While this is not always the case.
Let us pay tribute to the little ones. To the outsiders. To David against Goliath. Without having similar means, these series gain to be known, therefore to be seen. And then it will change a bit, because it must be admitted that the majority of our series are stamped USA Go, change is now (it goes, we do not laugh a little …).
3% (Brazil)
A series launched by Netflix in Brazil, where the site has established itself, faithful to its habit (cf Marseille in France). In short, we see a society divided between the rich and the poor, clearly. It is also the subject of the plot: a selection is put in place in order to give a chance to young people (20 years old) despaired to join the Other Shore , that is to say the haves, the Privileged. Convened in a building, they chained the tests, individual or collective, mostly intellectuals. And only 3% of them will be chosen, the lucky ones elected. Hence the title! A series of anticipations, in Portuguese, with no crazy financial means, one is caught by the different characters, one discovers the past and motivations by flashback. Accuracy: When you pass on the other side,
Orphan Black (Canada)
Diving into science fiction, where a woman realizes she has multiple clones. In this case Sarah Manning, back in her city, who sees Beth, throw herself under a train. Yeah, not super cheer like business. Since she looked like two drops of water, Sarah assumed the identity of Beth. Before realizing that she has a flop of look-alikes … The “sisters” will then make common cause to understand their origins and what is framed. A rather dramatic subject that remains pleasant to follow given the complexity of the characters for whom our feelings evolve, the fine and intelligent humor, and the remarkable performance of the actress Tatiana Maslany who plays all the roles of sisters, with Brio. Change character, accents, make us forget that it is one and the same interpreter,
Public Enemy (Belgium)
This Belgian series, inspired by the Dutroux affair, does not aim at a faithful adaptation, but rather shows the arrival in the Ardennes of a murderer of children. After twenty years of jail, Guy Béranger wishes to pass his conditional in the abbey of Vielsart . Of course, this does not happen without a few eddies … The reaction of the inhabitants, the behavior of the inspector in charge of monitoring, the monks: all points of view are discussed. And when a girl disappears, it gets cold. And the characters surprise us, in every sense of the word. Secrets, false leads, revelations, it’s well written and captivating to watch.
Walk in the Shade (Canada)
Centered on the prison universe, however different from what one is accustomed to see. Because the plot here focuses on the rehabilitation of prisoners, their upstream work with dedicated professionals, including criminologists. Desiring glued to reality, the creators chose criminologists to 90% female, like Rachel . Which is going to be called into question following a hanging with a prisoner. The confrontations are just and realistic, the tension takes you by the throat, the emotions flock. A good series to subdue. The only challenge is to understand everything and to be done quickly with the accent of Quebec.
Cleverman (Australia and New Zealand)
So, that denounces! An Australian-New Zealand production that treats, in a roundabout way but not so much, the segregation of the Aborigines in Australia . Here represented by the Hairy, mutants chased, persecuted and imprisoned by humans, they evolve in a hostile environment and undergo deplorable conditions of life. To give a more fictional side to this political dystopia, creators inject fantasy with supernatural and mystical powers entrusted to Cleverman, the sage of the Hairy / Aborigines.
Trapped (Iceland)
There is much talk about Scandinavian detective novels, here is another part of this same talent with this Icelandic series composed of ten episodes of 52 minutes. Broadcast on France 2 last year, as a bonus, this one deserved well this honor. The plot takes place in a small port village where a body is found mutilated . The local police first blocked the occupants – and first suspects – of the ferry, before having to do it alone, following the arrival of a snow storm that prevents the arrival of Reykjavik reinforcements. As often, the secrets are numerous between the inhabitants, the characters are complex, the false tracks numerous. A kind of closed door very well conducted. Someone has already looked at them and loved them?

Like Thiago Silva, the protagonist of the series does not ensure as much as it should

sivertime — Thu, 23 Mar 2017 20:01:17 +0000

So-called main character, charismatic, driving force, it does not meet expectations. And he sees his partners, supposedly secondary, steal the show.
Whose fault is it ? Good question. The actor with the game too dull, the dialogues rewound, the scenes badly tied … However, this character to be the star of the series is not, does not meet all expectations. Examples.
Peter Petrelli (“Heroes”)
Clearly a problem in writing the script. Planned for a single season, the series is tearing apart. As a result, the success is massive. As a result, producers do not want to stop and continue to fuck their pockets full. Except that the plot was scheduled over a season, the characters saw their destiny tip and their role ended there. Rather than going back on something new, while trying to keep a formula close, the guys have brought back the initial characters. Including Peter Petrelli. That tires everyone and occupies too much room, without letting others develop . Frankly, it was enough to choose one and give him a chance. There, it did not rhyme any more, it was wobbly, it could be seen. Then it’s completely gone in the end. The inevitable happened. Pity,
Malcolm (eponymous series)
Central character of the series and the family – there is only to see the title to confirm it, eh -, Malcolm remains however in withdrawal. We all have crazy memories with Reese, Hal, Francis or even Dewey for the more distant seasons, when this one grew and begins to really make his own. The little disdainful gaze and the sarcastic remarks of the little genius end up weary , and merely by less laughter than the exploits of other characters. Less complex, too predictable, the young gifted become plaintive teen loses charm gradually.
Peter Griffin (“The Griffins”)
It is clear that no character in this series is supposed to be worshiped, loved, in the sense that they are all bastards. Besides, rather than laughing with them, we spend more time laughing at them. But this is the goal of the author, Seth MacFarlane, so we kiffe. Except Peter, which ends up becoming more aggressive and limiting, than funny . As Mayor Adam West tore, with his caustic humor and obscure pop-culture references. It perfectly represented the absurdity of the show, it would have deservedly deserved to be the protagonist.
Oliver Queen (“Arrow”)
The most interesting part is told by flashback. That is to say how Oliver passes from the irresponsible spoiled young man to a mature and determined man. Afterwards, the series galley a little because it has already arrived at its final state. It is what it is, it no longer changes. Its variations and evolutions concern only its capacity to kill or not to assume it or not . Pity. While other characters like Arsenal (Roy) or the Black Canary (Laurel) really evolve before our eyes, from simple human beings to devoted fighters against crime. Which one did you most drunk?

These series that finish so nazi way that you feel cheated (e)

sivertime — Wed, 15 Mar 2017 19:52:15 +0000

Logically, the whole story before has been thought, narrated, to come to this conclusion. So when it stinks, you’re rather disappointed.
“The important thing is not the fall, it’s the landing” , as this phrase says in “La Haine”. As for these TV series, the landing proved to be catastrophic. In the sense that you have the unpleasant impression that he was not well prepared, anticipated, “that one had to finish in a way then hop one sways that and it is good” … No. Unfortunately, this is not good. Not here.
Weeds
Written by Jenji Kohan (also behind “Orange is the new black”), the series detonated and cardboard. A woman finds herself confronted with the premature death of her husband and must manage to complete the end of the month, suddenly. Then Nancy launches into the weed deal, and we discover wacky characters: Andy, Doug, Guillermo, his two sons Silas and Shane … For three seasons, we type bars. Then it calms down, turns round and leaves as a lollipop . And at the end, boom: a small shot, sitting in front of a porch, they promise that everything will go well from now on. That’s all ? No evidence, no arguments? Just a promise and it’s settled. Good, ok …
“Do you think it goes?” – “Boh, it’ll go, mouse!”
The Sopranos
Typical debates and criticism that causes an open end. Some like, others hate. Here, in the end, we see Tony in a very banal restaurant, with his family. He spotted a dumb guy, or worried him at least. Tony is not serene, he watches the guy go to the toilet. One understands that he fears to be shot in a few seconds, the guy weapon in hand . And bim, fade black, everyone is packing up. So yes, the end is thoughtful and pushes people to get their opinion. And it confronts them with the horrible feeling of insecurity and paranoia inherent in the life of mafioso. But some fans did not like it at all …
Sex & The City
Small precision: we are talking about series for failed purposes. Not mythical series for the purposes that disappointed us. Because we’re not going to lie either, Sex & The City has never been the series of the century. However, it had its audience, its followers and its history carried them for years. Mainly that of Carrie, who does not find the man of his life, abandons the idea of marrying. Intelligent, independent, beautiful, she assumes and finds her happiness otherwise: by contenting herself with sleeping here and there, leading her life as a bachelor as she sees fit. And she’s right. Except in the end, Mr Big disembarks on his white horse, like a savior, and she jumps on the occasion like Suarez on a well tended shoulder. All that for this.
My uncle Charlie
We are in front of two children. Two kids. We could almost say two cons but we are not like that. In this case, screenwriter Chuck Lorre and lead actor Charlie Sheen. This last fucked the brothel, left the series, negotiated bastard extensions, put the series in the shit of his behavior and his life a little too dissolute (in alcohol and drugs). We agree. Alas, instead of being more intelligent, the other has found nothing better in the last episode than to insult him and mock him by releasing a piano on his character and swinging: “I won! ” High level. And a lack of respect for the fans who had typed twelve seasons and hundreds of hours of viewing to see the story end up as well.
True Blood
Since the beginning of the story, the atmosphere was tense. Black. Stressful. A lot of shit, tangles, ramifications. So things to clear up at the end, decisions to make. Let the spectator know with whom Sookie finishes for example. Eric or Bill? And what about Lafayette? Instead, the series ends on a scene where everyone seems happy, including Sookie who is obviously pregnant but we do not know who because the guy is back … How to dodge and leave the fans alone, chapter 1 Lesson 1. And Lafayette, we see it done quickly, as if it had no importance in history. Hard.
Probably the most annoying and disappointing. For years, Dexter kept us in suspense, we were passionate about the character. His duality, his complexity, his difficulties … We were with him brothel, he had to get there, get out. At last it was thought that he wanted and could, to live with Hannah and his son Harrison. It was within reach, after doing so much harm. And then, the guy decides not. Okay, so let’s admit. But in this case, it really stumbles . He understands that he will remain a monster, no longer supports all the evil he does (especially the death of his sister Deb) and fucks himself in the air. Okay. But no, Dexter just goes to hang out alone, in Alaska, like a cunt, and does not do anything. Anything … He abandons his family, does not kill any more, in short it serves no purpose, Behaves like a coward and flees. The very opposite of what Dexter has been up to now … Which made you the most enervated ?

How to give the name of a character without it being all banal and none

sivertime — Mon, 13 Mar 2017 17:51:54 +0000

It sounds stupid but it’s actually complicated. We must avoid the classic “How are you called? “, Bring something more fun to see. The techniques.
Use a conversation where more than two people participate
From the outset, one avoids the face to face classic and relou described in the intro. There, with at least three people discussing, it is enough to have the name of a character spoken and to point the camera towards him . And hop, at least one identified! Kind of scred ‘, of course, like: “By the way, Bernard, what do you think about it?”
Show character name
Another feint. Rather than say it, make it heard, we must mount it, make it see. Via a plaque on the door of his office, an inscription on his professional card, a letter addressed to him … or even squarely an advertising display as for Saul Goodman in Breaking Bad.
Create a waiting scene where their name is necessarily given
Like us, when we go to the doctor, the hairdresser, to an interview or any other official appointment. The character will be there, waiting to be called, wisely, and so will be his name . On the other hand, it is necessary to give a minimum of meaning to the scene. Otherwise, we’re gonna be shit …
Use mobile phone calls and messages
Here is an idea that it is good. In addition, it is the image of our everyday life so it will seem perfectly natural. When you call someone, you usually introduce yourself . Question of politeness, already, and common sense, then, if not the other at the end of the wire will grieve to understand what you want, why … Concerning texting, it is even simpler. Simply film the name of the contact indicated on the screen and the trick is played.
Make two characters talk about a nearby third
Not necessarily wrong, in the language of motherfucker. It does not matter, it’s free. Simply, to make a conversation between two characters about a third allows to show the latter. Easy. We have more than making the name-face link . Normally, it is feasible.
Never mention the character’s name
This happens much more often than you think. And what is also less serious and embarrassing than we think. Seriously, you can very well follow the characters, understand the film and debrief after but without knowing his name . You have other means of designating it. In Fight Club, for example, Edward Norton is “the narrator”. That’s all, no name. And many of us did not even realize it.
Make a scene
Both literally and figuratively. In contrast to the previous technique, here we focus on the name and nothing else. So there must of course be a staging, an explanation, that serves the story . These conditions fulfilled, the film can spend two minutes on a name. Like McLovin in Super Grave. So, who feels warm to write a script now that this major problem is resolved?

The thousand and one reasons to kill a character in series

sivertime — Mon, 27 Feb 2017 20:58:44 +0000

Sometimes we wonder why. Sometimes you do not understand. At other times, we’re downright pissed off. In any case, there is always an explanation. Examples.
We simple spectators are ignorant. And that rhymes with addiction. We love a series, we like a character in particular and we want to keep it with us as long as possible. Mourning sometimes proves difficult, especially when you do not understand why the character should die . Because we do not have all the cards in hand. Here is what goes on behind the scenes and explains everything.
Sara Lance / Black Canary in “The Arrow”
Sister of Laurel, also a former conquest of Oliver aka The Arrow, Sara was given for dead from the beginning. Since the accident of Oliver’s boat, which had also made him believe it disappeared forever. In short, years later, the Black Canary landed and greatly helped Oliver in his taf to clean the city. Until she takes an arrow and falls from a building, dying instantly . Too bad, the fans loved it. Then the screenwriters and producers have brought him back to life, to tear it off, and it’s gone. Then they created a series called “Legends of Tomorrow”, around her. Big change of plan.
Rita in “Dexter”
Dexter’s girlfriend and wife, Rita was the ray of light of Dexter. As well as all the spectators. Problem: Dexter continued (as always) his small outings and ended up falling on a tough, trinity. Their mano a mano game ended dramatically, the opponent killing Rita, in his bathtub, when Dexter had eliminated him and thought he had escaped. Wrong. A death that was not necessarily planned for this character but that the producers saw as the best possible end in season 5 . And for the history of Dexter in general.
Stringer Bell in “The Wire”
Slowly but surely, the character has grown considerably. At Avon Barksdale’s base deputy, he becomes important when he finds himself in jail for a while. Then his intelligence makes the difference. He becomes the boss, he maneuvers everything behind the scenes, expands his network, fricots with the politicians … Fans love him too much . And this is what motivated the producers to kill the character, with the agreement of the actor, Idris Elba. They did not want and could not let the message pass that the life of a drug trafficker is noble, enviable, a success. The life of a gangster is difficult, risky, and ends badly. Omar had the same treatment, for the same reasons.
Kate Todd in “NCIS”
Then there, it is clearly the actress who wanted to be dezangled. Sasha Alexander was not ready for the rhythm of work required for the shooting of a series, long, constant, taking. Despite her extraordinary performance as a secret service agent, she did not hold the blow physically and nervously. Exhausted, she asked the producers to find a solution , that her character leaves the plot for good. So at the end of Season 2, she took a bullet and went away.
Lexa in “The 100”
Basically, we find ourselves a century after an apocalypse erupted on earth and some survivors live in an ark. After a while, they realize that their resources will not suffice forever and that we must return to earth, see if there is any way to resume their life there. So they send 100 young prisoners, minors, in designated voluntary mode, knowing full well that it stinks the suicide mission. Among them, Clarke, who will meet one of the few survivors left on earth, now formed into tribes, Lexa. These two women will then lead a romance. The actress Alycia Debnam-Carey who played Lexa was recruited in 2015 in “Fear The Walking Dead” . Question timetable, it was no longer manageable. She would have missed at least half the third season. Then the producers took the lead: after a scene of love with Clarke (long awaited by the fans), Lexa dies taking a ball to save her lover. A sudden but stupid death that made the fans crazy, to the point that they threatened to kill the showrunner Jason Rothenberg. How did you react to their dead?

A few anecdotes about “Friends” that only big fans have spotted or read

sivertime — Wed, 22 Feb 2017 19:48:09 +0000

Either you retain absolutely everything, or you’ve watched the series dozens of times. In any case, it was not easy to capture these details. Come on, we’ll tell you what.
Monica and Chandler apartments change number
At first, Monica lived in apartment # 5. Except that it is not on the ground floor, so one day, the producers discreetly changed to the No. 20. Well then? Same for Chandler, going from 4 to 19 . At least they follow each other and maintain a logic. It’s already that.
The erasable painting on the door of the apartment of Chandler and Joey
In many planes, you can see the small picture with blue borders, with inscriptions on it. Sometimes, simple reminders for Joey like “calls mom”, jokes between roommates like “nice nails chandler” or highly philosophical messages like “Why?”, “Caca” or “Girls forbidden”.
Gabrielle Union was the first black woman to appear
In season 7, she interprets Kristen Lang and makes crazy Ross and Joey , who will fight for her. Like kids, they’re gonna pull out the files. Ross’s failed marriages, Joey’s mediocre career … Blasée, she goes away without they realizing it. It seems she would have chosen Joey. We always hope to have proof of this.
Jennifer Aniston nearly hung up before the end
Several reasons had led her to ask the question. His success already achieved, his promising debut at the cinema (with “Bruce Almighty”), his personal problems and the fear of tired fans, to make the season too much and finish in blood sausage. Finally, she played well in the last season and everyone was relieved.
The actors could have been quite different
First thing: Courtney Cox was to play Rachel . And yeah, on the ass ?! Producers saw it that way but it was she who explained that she was more in line with Monica after reading the script. In competition with other actresses, she was eventually retained. And Matthew Perry would never have been Chandler if Jon Favreau had accepted the role. Finally, Phoebe was to be Ellen DeGeneres. Except she said no, then Lisa Kudrow assured behind.
The characters change their age or dates of birth and it is the brothel
At the beginning, in the first season, Joey explains to be the youngest of the group, with its 25 years. Monica and Rachel follow, one year older. Except that later, when Rachel turns 30, Joey has already blown them … At the same time, Rachel was supposed to be born in May, then in season 7 it is a fish, so came into the world in January or February. And Ross is 29 for three consecutive seasons. Do you have other things in stock?

You can not wait to see the actors of “The Big Bang Theory” in movies?

sivertime — Thu, 16 Feb 2017 20:08:29 +0000

It is now known that they had other roles before exploding. Included in other series. But we forget the films where some have already appeared.
That this is not the main roles does not detract from their performance. They have assured and contributed to the success of the film, and this gives us the opportunity to see them in another light. Before they replay again in feature films, this time scrutinized by all.
Johnny Galecki in the movie “The Fir has the balls”
He has 14 pins and is in 1989. In this film, he plays the role of Russell Griswold, a cheerful teenager, son of Chevy Chase aka Clark Griswold. A film unknown to the battalion here in France, which was part of a successful franchise on the other side of the Atlantic . And a role that served to reveal other actors, having also interpreted “Rusty”, such as Anthony Michael Hall.
Jim Parsons in “Garden State”
Far from the asocial geek Sheldon Cooper, the actor was called here Tim, a young man with surprising life. Lover of a much older woman weedy smuggler , and employed to wear a steel knight’s outfit. Including to walk around and have breakfast. What remains one of the best scenes of this film where you laugh most of the time. Info: Natalie Portman plays in.
It is more creeping limit like that …
Simon Helberg in “Like Cinderella”
You see the awkward Howard, nerd, stressed, unintentionally kissing “The Big Bang Theory”? Well this is almost the same thing in this film of 2004 where he meets Hillary Duff and Chad Michael Murray. Under the name of Terry, he spends his time following the pretty woman and hopes to seduce her , still in her bubble.
Mayim Bialik in “Over the Life”
A movie to look under the duvet, when you have a soft stroke. But who can very well make you chill too, let’s be honest. Love, friendship , life what … More sparkling and sexy than in Amy , the actress appears here as the child version of the character Cecilia Carol Bloom. Rousse, smiling and very young, limit you do not recognize her.
Kevin Sussman in “Wet Hot American Summer”
A classic (with Paul Rudd and Bradley Cooper) in the stupid comedy genre that you look without thinking, just to laugh foolishly. And after all, when the mission is accomplished, it proves that it is done right. Despite a minor role, the one known as Stuart, the manager of the comic books store, brings its stone to the building. Here Steve, he only speaks with a robot voice and possesses super natural powers . All this is in a camp where the facilitators try to re-establish the situation on the last day. Has anyone ever looked at them?

These cartoons adapted movies that you may have forgotten

sivertime — Wed, 01 Feb 2017 18:46:35 +0000

To be resumed and adapted is to have success. At least the original work, the one that inspires. For adaptations are (too often) forgotten.
King Kong
Not complicated to guess the name of the protagonist, nor his appearance. King Kong, a monkey bump with Lorna Jenkins, a scientist, and his son, to bring down this devil Ramon Porta . Not really a copy of the monkey of the 1933 film, King Kong, we know all the same that the story comes from there.
Ace Ventura
Like the film, even delirious. The only difference is the voice of the detective played by Jim Carrey , because here it’s not his but that of Michael Daingerfield. Otherwise grimaces, jokes, twisted blows, everything is there.
SOS Ghosts
You see the same investigators walking around New York, solving stories, dealing with paranormal affairs. The scénar ‘, the voice, it was a good job and that regaled us for six years . Before being replaced by another series “Ghosbusters” but less well.
Men in Black
The respected science fiction atmosphere, amplified gags and adapted for a younger audience in cartoon fashion, a pleasure for four years (and seasons) from 1997 to 2001. In addition, icing on the cake, the animated series had an influence on the second film . When J faces Jarra in the building that serves as the seat, it is something that we find in the second episode of the cartoon.
Godzilla
Decidedly, it was a habit in the 90s. And for the blow, it was a rich idea since the series was more fun than the film. Rather disappointing, the movie was not very funny and did not address enough of the animals . There, there was a mass of clashes between lizards and reptiles, insects and other monsters.
Beetlejuice
After his 1988 film, Tim Burton had not yet finished with his Gothic universe, centered around the famous Beetlejuice. So he created a series starting in 1999, four seasons , which respected no surprise the film’s atmosphere while agreeing to children. Even the intro music was reworked for good gluing.
Other adaptations cited
Star Wars: Clone Wars, The Mask, Buzz Lightyear (sort of spin-off from Toy Story) You remember where, that you looked small?

These kids of cartoons to whom you would give the good God without confession are merciless killers

sivertime — Wed, 11 Jan 2017 18:27:25 +0000

Despite their seeming innocent little girls at first, they can smash you as fast as they do. This is also the beauty of cartoons.

Mariko Kurama in “Elfen Lied”
With her little blouse and the knot in her hair, you take her for a little harmless. And you should not. Giving little or no interest to human life, it can degrade anyone like that. She also spent her entire life locked in a high security area , monitored by a manager who placed explosives in his body to make him jump to members when she disobeys. That does not stop him. Even if she walks around in a wheelchair, she needs to kill to live.
Krul Tepes in “Seraph of the end”
We must not rely on appearances, it is confirmed. While it appears ten, it actually counts 200,000 years. Queen of Japan in her world, Krul gets warm in no time for any fight, including with bare hands. Know that if she touches you, she’ll tear a limb, so it hits hard, fast and accurately . Hint to know when it gets under pressure: red eyes.
Hibana Daida in “Deadman Wonderland”
The click came to the school. A heavy bastard made her a joke, joking too much, and she decided to torture him. Clearly, Hibana twitched. Yet, she thinks of rendering justice, in her way certainly but seriously. If the dress does not specifically betrays his folly, it suffices to note the sword she carries 4m for him knock those short on beans . A two-in-one weapon that decomposes into several pieces and can lie down to strike a distant enemy.
Like the genius of Aladin but less friendly. She can realize all kinds of vows and does not deprive herself. You, naive, you kiffes without knowing that she will ask you better in exchange. And there you know you can not. Her too. And hop, Alluka has his excuse all found to kill you and your family . It would then pass under the control of Nanika Zoldyck, his second personality.
Sengoku Nadeko in “Monogatari Series”
The plan to avoid. Jolie, nice, discreet, you think to make the coup of the century by choping it. Basically, yes. Except that the small is under a curse when she falls in love, she goes insane . Sengoku sees his eyes go red, severe picole and uses rather warlike serpents to attack those who are on his way.
Another one with the childish style that would surprise you. Small top, skirt, boots rising … and powerful gun or tap with razor tips grafted to shear his opponents. This combined with a peerless flexibility and a certain mastery of the martial arts . Besides, Mumei is never afraid so if you’re in your sight, you’re in the shit. The only way to know is if she is wearing a ribbon around her neck. If so, the Kabane virus is contained. If she is kidnapped, she becomes a merciless warrior.
Illyasviel von Einzbern in “Fate / Stay night: unlimited blade works”
“Issue of the German aristocracy, she joined Japan to participate in the 5th Holy Grail War. So she has the temperament and not leaking the fight, obviously. A father-daughter the trauma work hard following the adoption of a big brother named Shiro, since Illyasviel afraid of being abandoned . So she wants everyone to be at his orders. and if we insist, it sends the giant second, Berserker. You understand the interest in Never underestimate people now?

Chromecast Ultra vs Apple TV: The turfu TV game

magictr — Wed, 28 Dec 2016 21:14:57 +0000

What if we did not have a box to watch the TV otherwise? We tested (and compared) Apple TV and Chromecast Ultra, the latest proposals from two giants, Apple and Google.
Replay shows, rental movies and series, broadcast content of a mobile … Apple TV and Chromecast Ultra want to revolutionize our way of watching television. (Yeah, it’s not just the AirPods that are revolutionary ). In the editorial, we tested and compared the latest proposals of the giants Apple and Google. And the least one can be that the wallpapers of both systems are magnificent. So much so that if it was not an insult to the planet, we would have left the TV turned on all the time, oklm.

TV and VOD: Apple TV Advantage
If the Apple scores points with the new version of its Apple TV, everything is not perfect. We are entitled to bugs, especially in the new MyCanal app, and some localization problems with untranslated sentences. But at the TV and VOD, Apple has a big advantage . Thanks to the new Molotov application for watching TV, Apple TV becomes a real TV box. ” This is the TV you know, organized as you still have never seen” , promises Molotov. True enough, all programs, live or replay, are organized by thumbnails and choosing that We want in 3 clicks, but that’s not all!

With Molotov, Apple TV becomes a real TV box
Siri can even help you select “a film with Sylvester Stallone” , “a comedy” and even “a short film for children” but not “a Spanish film” or ” which won the Golden Palm” . It is tempting … With the anthology of app arrived on both systems: MyCanal, Bein, OCS, one no longer needs to resort to its classic box. On the other hand, the video game can push us to iron by the tv box and meltyStyle explains why!

The Chromecast Ultra and the Apple TV do not sell dreams for gamers
As much say cash, we do not like to play on the Chromecast Ultra and Apple TV. Neither the stream of a mobile game (for the Chromecast) nor a game designed for Apple TV really sold us a dream. The Apple TV’s toy library is quite restricted. Worse still, the two solutions remain graphically limited and there is always a disagreeable discrepancy between our actions and the moment when they appear on the screen. One can always stream his part of Hearstone or Clash of Clans, from his mobile on the TV to talk strategy with the buddies but, it remains a marginal use. Side controls, if you order from your phone, this is not really practical. Maybe the arrival of titles like Minecraft will change our minds.

Image quality and balance sheet
Apple, we want the 4K! If you have a TV at home crazy, Chromecast Ultra scores points with its definition 4K . This lack is even more glaring today on Apple TV. The solution of Google (which has launched Pixel smartphones) can also boast of being very simple to use but, overall, the Apple TV has managed to seduce us. Well, we like both solutions, but we have a little heart for the Apple product . More than the Chromecast, Apple TV presents a complete and is pleasant to use. So, ready to watch turfu TV?
