Sherlock and missed expectations

Sherlock - The blind banker

Benedict Cumberbatch: Sherlock Once again demonstrates his enormous potential intellectuals, despite not having his mark as in the first episode.

Watson: With respect to the first episode is in the hands of our Sherlock, risks his life and that of his new knowledge, which probably will take an important role in the life of Sherlock and Watson and maybe reinventing the triad detective hired in the last twenty minutes of the episode.




On the soundtrack:
Purely English. Good music accompaniment.

On the plot:
Less beauty than the first episode, dull for the first hour and then recover when Sherlock begins to understand the code. A bad episode without involvement, poor plot and the police inspector even more subdued as the same figure of the previous episode.

#3 The ten best scenes of Dexter

The fifth season of the series is perhaps the last with superior quality and the storyline between Dexter and Lumen played by Julia Stiles is the latest that has really added something to the show and to the dynamics of its protagonist. This season we choose two key moments: the first contact between Dexter and Lumen, in the final episode of the third "Santa Muerte", the moment when our serial killer realizes the girl who saw him commit one of his murders; the second is the very tense sequence "The darkness beyond the light" in which Debra almost discovers the activities of his brother ... with two seasons ahead of what eventually happened.

#2 The ten best scenes of Dexter


Let's go back to season 2, one of the best of Dexter, and the face-off between the protagonist and Doakes that lasts for the duration of the annuity and that compares the serial killer with the limits of the Code of the father, that would prevent to kill the man who is on his trail and suspected of being the Bay Harbour Butcher.

 Two moments that have affected: in the first place in that the cylinder head that night happened around Dex trims to Sergeant, cold and reasoned, that causes the violent reaction of Doakes in the central and the resulting suspension by Laguerta; second killing the character of Erik King in The British invasion and the way in which the authors are able to get rid of him and his fondatissimi suspects without breaking the code of Harry.

Relive The mentalist : First Season


  1. Simply put: it was the television event of the year, the series that has practically devoured the competition, the only - or at least one of the few - to achieve and overcome the obstacle of the 20 million viewers.

The Mentalist, CBS flagship along with - just think '- NCIS and winner of People's Choice Award for best drama series, created by that Bruno Heller, who wrote and produced a gem raw and foul-mouthed like Rome, is not only the surprise of the year promptly confirmed for a second season, but has re-launched explosively the figure of the detective and investigation pure. Why? How Is It? He deserves it? After the cut we'll find out.

It 's true, in terms of plot and premise similarities there, especially Psych, but is the show of USA Network's Monk as Maigret: here, no frills dramatic or pathetic, the tone is ironic, witty, light, but never grotesque, farcical or merely ridanciano and often the thickness of the story is more interesting than the show itself would imply.

The scripts are written with care, especially in the game with the cliché of the classic yellow (significant episode 1 × 16, Bloodshot, where Jane is temporarily without a view) and the royal exaggerate not ever limiting - clear - to follow the star.

Hannibal vs Dexter (Part 3) : Construction character








 
This level of comparison, perhaps the most interesting, is closely related to two ways, so different as to seem almost antithetical, to tell the bad.
 Hannibal is part of that trend that has evil through a mask so attractive to the point of dropping the viewer into the abyss. The charm of the evil protagonist is so strong that it can almost hide the destructive role he's playing. The feeling you have in front of a character like Hannibal Lecter is to be ahead of the other part of the reality, the bad part of the world that, as we try to avoid, and there is in our midst; the dark side of the moon before which often we tend to close our eyes to exclude its presence, but of which we can not help but feel its weight.



With Dexter's speech takes a completely different twist .. Dexter creates an intense empathic connection with the viewer, who unwittingly finds himself to root for a serial killer who, instinctively, he can not see the creepy side.
Having put on the table covered with plastic only criminals and showing us the careful investigation that led him to choose the victims, has meant that the public has focused more on the criminal, which he knows in detail the monstrosity of the crimes, which the protagonist, who in perspective becomes instinctual one who frees the world from the bad.




 A rational level changes the perception point of view, but it is precisely in the coexistence of these conflicting impulses (which Dexter creates in the viewer) that is the greatest strength of this twisted character. The identification, which takes place with the main character, creates a point of constant demand of what is right and what is wrong, and often these questions you can not provide any definitive answer; a feeling perhaps disorienting, but definitely alive. And it is for this strong feeling that the victory goes to Dexter that despite the slips of the last years, will remain one of the best characters created in recent years in the world of television.






Hannibal vs Dexter (part 2): History of the characters outside of the show

















Hannibal Lecter, than Dexter, draws its strength from a decade past of memorable films and books, as well as the masterful performance by Hopkins in a state of grace.
The series starring Mads Mikkelsen, moving the action prior to the capture of the famous cannibal (before and after Red Dragon The origins of evil), we showed a novel Hannibal: a respected psychiatrist, the protagonist of a seemingly normal life which, among the meanderings of a fully equipped kitchen, hiding a horrible secret.
However, as would Dexter, "there are no secrets, only hidden truths," and it is at this level, where the reality of things is completely camouflaged in an appearance not only ordinary but exemplary, which lights up the red thread unites the two serial killers.

Hannibal vs Dexter



Dexter: "The Bay Harbor Butcher"


- Expert in blood spatter, works for the scientific murders in Miami.

- Strong point: Nobody its preservation of a clean room murder as Dexter, always accompanied by tips of his adoptive father died and a code which he taught.

- Weakness: obsessive search of normality and the low profile that wears his true being of sociopath.


                                                        Hannibal: "Chesapeak Ripper"



- Psychiatrist, collaborator FBI and experienced chef.

- Strong point: Mind acute, high capacities in the manipulation of the mind, as well as excellent draftsman expert on anatomy.

- Weaknesses: Like any psychopath who respects...his huge ego.


Who would survive for you? Dexter would capture and kill Hannibal?
Or would it be (to have) Hannibal Dexter for dinner?

About Dexter - What role did Harrison Morgan?



As promised, I'd like to discuss Dexter.
I would be treated in a way a bit special, I have read a million reviews over the years, but nothing that spoke in detail of the characters, which are numerous in this series: I would like to deal with some characters from the series, the eventual evolution or lack of evolution.




I would start now to talk about Dexter. But I thought that his son might begin to be better, talking about those people who for better or for worse, I was impressed that despite some shortcomings, remains the series of the last ten to fifteen years.


Harrison Morgan played by child Jadon Wells.

The son of our protagonist who spends more time with the babysitter who with his father.
Harrison is not a character that you are fond of is a narrative device: I mean... when Harrison responds to the agent: "This is the father, this is me and this is... the mother." Very conveniently, 30 seconds before the arrival of the US Marshall, Harrison had told Dexter: "I wish that Hannah was my mom."
High voltage? Really?

Another scene is when he falls and Hannah is forced to go to the hospital, so the risk of being found by police. Everything, always and only for the plot, nothing that makes us attach to the character, everything always very hastily. Why not do 18 episodes? Content to be treated and the fans were certainly also.
Harrison was always overlooked...and with the death of Rita dies also hope to see depicted a child, which should represent the "good" part of Dexter.

Irene Adler: differences between novels and Sherlock

The Woman of Sherlock Holmes



Irene Adler is not just the woman for Sherlock Holmes but, is The Woman for readers of Sherlock Holmes.
There's transposition, revision, discussions among fans who do not put the Adler as the predominant figure of the canon.
For several verses of Moriarty.
A what makes it so special? Adler managed to beat Sherlock in cunning, in advance of the game, disguise imparting a lesson in style and honor to the customer, but also the only character who tries to discover the private life Sherlock Holmes, and I intend to private sentimental, the detective.












The woman Moffat

The Adler Moffat is a dominatrix who loves power and power games.
Its customers are powerful and illustrious, his cell phone is an archive of confidential and 
compromising.

Adler becomes part of the life of Sherlock called to retrieve images that portray scabrous with a female member of the Royal family. The British Government and the CIA and unspecified enemies seek, but his game is, especially with Sherlock Holmes for the first time is in front of a person does not surprise by his deductions.



The perspicacity of Irene Adler, the courtship of Adler, make sure that Sherlock feels the threat of his intelligence, much to deprive yourself of what Sherlock loves most: highlight the intellectual inferiority of others.


Engage in a question and answer with Irene Adler Sherlock lead to bitter his cleverness and he cannot compromise his cool detachment.
Step back: Irene Adler is a series of clichés of femme fatale. The red fingernails, the choice of blood red lip, the entry unveiled effect.
But she had anticipated all this to say: every disguise ultimately is always a self-portrait, and she has presented step by step to one that is.

A Dangerous Woman. There you should never trust, especially when you feel special, so vulnerable.

For once it was Sherlock to see without looking. The attraction between two charismatic individuals and egomaniac like Sherlock and Adler cannot be unique. The Adler Moffat is therefore the Woman beats Holmes, but only with the whip. If there is victory, it is emotional: the bringing Sherlock to admit to having feelings. The banal - but only for the rest of the world - message of good wishes for the New Year is testimony.

About Dexter - Harry's death, Did Vogel kill Harry??

There was a moment, after the director has shown those flashbacks of Matthews, who revealed the truth about Dexter's father that I thought, "But if it was Vogel to kill Harry?"

Yes, but we assume. There are some things that led me to talk about it; think for a moment when asked Debra videos to Vogel. The psychiatrist hides some videos, which means that Vogel has something to hide their children Morgan, and then.. In one of the latest videos Harry says: "Don't think I can live with this burden."
So believe that Harry committed suicide could be a risky proposition.








When Harry says that he did not want to live with that weight, I believed that he was going to confess to the police about what he and Vogel were doing, remember that Harry is an arrogant man, when he adopted Dexter was aware that he could become a sociopath and a disturbed, but went straight to his way.








Another consideration... when the police decide to commit suicide usually decides to shoot himself, hardly a cop with a beautiful career, decide to use poisons to get it over with. It seems to me a technique that would use much more a woman, as Vogel.




Only I have thought about this theory?
All the pieces back in their place, and let's be clear, a psychiatrist who wants to convince a serial killer to "convert" to another on the same principles, is a woman capable of murder.



What do you think?
Maybe it's all a coincidence, but think about it for a moment, after all this, for Dexter... and much more.

It's been over a year since HBO's True Detective debuted and introduced all of us the ambiguous character of Matthew McConaughey - Rustin Cohle, but after months and months of ads on season 2, the production of the series is finally underway California... and we have the photos to prove it!

Three photos to prove the fact that Season 2 is coming!



                                                                                https://twitter.com/TD_HBO/status/568910023147069440                                                                               

The images do not say much, but one thing is certain. We are not in the swamps of Louisiana.
Located in California, True Detective Season 2 will see as protagonists, three corrupt police officers with a criminal career. Farrell plays the cop Ray Velcoro, whose alliances are divided between the police department and the mafia boss Semyon Frank - Vince Vaughn. Meanwhile, Kitsch plays a veteran cop and Woodrugh Paul, who works for the California Highway Patrol Rachel McAdams as a detective named Ani Bezzerides.

True Detective, the anthology series!


True detective - Pilot

The first thing I usually do when I start to look a Pilot is to see by it was written. And I find the name of Nic Pizzolato, author of eight episodes of the first season, executive producer and showrunner.









"People out here, it's like they do not even know the outside world exists. Might as well be living on the fucking moon "the words spoken by our protagonist, Rust Cohle help the viewer understand what environment will host the series.


We are in Louisiana, it is the first thing that I was not convinced here, and that is Mr. Fukunaga shows us desolately ample outdoor spaces and voids, as opposed to enclosed spaces. Typical setting of Louisiana ok, but compulsively proposal.



Another key figure in the series is the character of Martin that at some moment of the first episode gives nicknames different types of cop that exist: "the bully, the charmer, the surrogate dad, the man possessed by an ungovernable rage, the brain".

I find who is a little bit the climax of the episode (if not the entire season) the director plays with the images that we use to describe the figure of the policeman in noir, and being an anthology series, that is, with cast and different stories in each season, one day we will find as the protagonist's character as a "bully" or as a "charmer", perhaps even in the second season.

The "human factor" is important, as a noir of respect: the flashback structure gives us a portrait of two men who met 17 years earlier to investigate a murder of a serial killer. New techniques and used with intelligence, excellent casting, photographs refined and careful and a story that appears to be deep and realistic.
How to pilot the pace is measured to perfection. The dramatic and raw make a series to be savored, and that it is the right balance between "noir" and crime.

Waiting for the third season - Hannibal

A couple of considerations, commenting on the trailer. In the trailer, which features the first footage from the upcoming third season, it's not quite clear how much time has passed since the shocking events of the Season 2 finale, which left the fate of four characters, including Will Graham and Jack Crawford but it appears that Will (Hugh Dancy) has recovered from his injuries and is tracking Hannibal in Europe.












Has there ever been a more chilling moment than Will's, "I forgive you"? Of course, there has, this is Hannibal we're talking about. Will Graham pronounces these words in the trailer, what can we expect? A rapprochement of two characters or a duel of intelligence as in the second season?
How does NBC expect us to wait until summer for Season 3?
Who do you think lived? Who died? And what do you plan on doing to survive the coming months without Hannibal?




Aspettando la terza stagione - Hannibal


Giusto un paio di considerazioni, commentando il trailer. Si presenta così, il primo filmato della terza stagione, non è del tutto chiaro quanto tempo è passato da quando abbiamo vissuto gli eventi scioccanti della Stagione 2 - che ha abbandonato il destino di quattro personaggi nelle mani della terza stagione, tra cui Will Graham e Jack Crawford,  ma sembra che Will (Hugh Dancy) abbia recuperato dalle  ferite inferte da Hannibal e sia sulle sue tracce in Europa.











Vi è mai stato un momento più agghiacciante del "Io ti perdono"? Naturalmente, Will Graham pronuncia nel trailer queste parole, cosa dobbiamo aspettarci? Un riavvicinamento dei due protagonisti o un duello a colpi d'astuzia come nella seconda stagione?
Come può NBC aspettare fino all'estate per la Stagione 3?
Chi pensi sia sopravissuto? Chi è morto? 
E che cosa si pensa di fare per sopravvivere nei prossimi mesi senza Hannibal?

5 news about the third season of Hannibal - Summer 2015!

At the beginning of the third season will meet Hannibal with actress Gillian Anderson, who has not been seen on TV since the days of X-files, they are in Europe. Precisely for this culinary title of the season 3 will be the Italian cuisine, the first was the French, in the second Japanese.













Despite the blow received in episode 7 of the series, Esparza / Chilton wins a key role in following Hannibal, much darker, tormented and dramatic. How he survived it's a mystery, and I fear it will remain.
















The third episode will introduce Lady Murasaki, Hannibal's Japanese aunt and his secret love in "Hannibal Rising" and later will also be the serial killer Francis Dolarhyde, since mid-series the plot will also involve the novel Red Dragon.


The Season 3 includes, from the start, new characters taken from the novels of Thomas Harris, characters who have not appeared even in the movies.
Nice idea!









We will know of Will Graham's life, how it will evolve. The character of Eddie Izzard (Dr. Abel Gideon) seems definitely dead (at least he) even if it will come back to Fuller shots flashbacks as was for Jacob Hobbs, the same fate will befall Abigail Hobbs.
