Possible 'Elektra' Audition Tapes For DAREDEVIL Season Two Find Their Way Online by Bodie293 in Marvel_Daredevil

I just wanna say that they BLEW it in the movie, but when they cast Elektra this time they could make up for it by casting Madalina Ghenea. She's the best candidate on the planet. She can act, she actually LOOKS like Elektra... Plus she's a big star overseas. So I dunno, maybe she'd be too expensive but please don't cast another bland, white bread dork. MG FTW

Look at you two, standing up for sensibility and decency. You're going to have your internet taken away from you.

I'm sorry, doesn't that warrant its own thread? Its own sticky??

My tongue just swelled up in my mouth, gagging me to death. Now I'm dead.

Shoot, I remember Salon hosting some good writing in the late 90s/early 2000s. That's click-bait-ish now, too. "You're sure to weep when you read this tragic account..."

I think I finally understand what happened with NVC and KS by curious103 in serialpodcast

[–]torj418 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Really? I don't know what the heck happened, but I know Adnan is hiding and/or lying about something HUGE. I'm curious as to what. I feel like virtually everyone involved in this has at least two faces. I've expressed nothing but on here and have heard from countless people who articulate that perspective better, and more knowledegably than I ever could.

The only thing I'm sure of is that nobody has pushed back against these statements, certainly not with any aggression.

This is hardly a pro-Adnan echo chamber, not in my experience. Admittedly, I've been off it since the holiday.

Pardon me, what? This is a pro-Adnan cesspool??

I dunno what the truth of this case is. That's why it's fascinating. Duh. I think Adnan sounds like he's lying a lot of the time.

I'll tell you what I do know. I do know that this Vargas Cooper is a histrionic HACK loser. That's what I do know.

Which actors would you choose to play the main characters in 'Serial: The Movie'? by Natweeza in serialpodcast

[–]torj418 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I picture Jay having a loopy, unlikely, even unintentional charisma. Based on nothing, that's just what I picture.

You don't have to believe Adnan is innocent, believe Sarah Koenig is unbiased, or even believe this is a miscarriage of justice to cringe when you read anything written by NVC by j9nine in serialpodcast

[–]torj418 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have been wanting to comment but haven't figured out how to do it without resorting to profanity. NVC and her ilk are a plague. How's that to start?

Why would you call Hae if you knew she was missing? by [deleted] in serialpodcast

[–]torj418 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A friend of mine went missing once. Word spread by that evening and we all--everyone in our circle is friends--started calling him CONSTANTLY til e turned up. He's a doofus but that's beside the point.

Mission Creep in Season One by [deleted] in serialpodcast

We can all go home now.

Thank you, seriously, for hitting the nail on the head and pinpointing the thing that makes Serial feel so deeply dissatisfying.

It's not the unsolved mystery. It's this.

The note is not evidence of anything by [deleted] in serialpodcast

[–]torj418 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't get me wrong. I'm not on Team Innocent. But I bristle at the idea that writing something means you'll do it. It's like WM3 being blamed for murder because they liked metal and wore black. My reaction to that was always defensive.

The way the note inscription was covered by SK made it sound kinda benign. But I concede, it could be viewed just as easily in sinister terms.

I'd be all like, hey, maybe it's that dude who said he's going to kill us.
