Re: AMC's "Fear The Walking Dead"
Great story. Her efforts at leaving that 'shit show' in the rearview failed her as she. along with most of the cast did a parody of it on Jimmy Fallon earlier this year or late last year. Hey, a buck's a buck, right?
I always had a hard-on for her on the show and when I heard about Showgirls and the nudity, I took my girlfriend (now ex-wife but not because of this) to opening night, while acting oblivious to what the movie contained. Needless to say she wasn't impressed with the movie nor impressed with being the only woman in the theatre.

Re: AMC's "Fear The Walking Dead"
yes...boyle admitted as such but as I understand it...he was inspired to show what a world would look like to the last man who would see among a city of the blind. i have not read that book but the city was filled with people, no? in 28 days later, he upped the ante by showing jim utterly alone and brought a little know work to the zombie world. it is a trope that was again used to far lesser extent in Resident Evil.
that kirkman and co used it in The Walking Dead and that 28 Days Later was clearly the inspiration, was annoying at first but that they went back to it for Fear really grinds my gears! That shows limited originality and no creativity at all. I know they wanted parity with the original series, but from the very first minutes of the show, I was already unimpressed.
I will be honest...the whole zombie genre is extremely hard to be novel in...so I can't entirely fault Fear for just retreading very common themes that have been done better elsewhere, but when you layer all the cliched characters, the so called slow burn which to me is a bad thing, the terrible acting, and the lack of anything substantively different, it is not something I will need to watch. My wife on the other hand (as referenced in other threads) likes pretty much opposite shows that I like, so of course she enjoyed Fear...so it will be on my dvr, unfortunately.
ya know...I am pretty sure Ruben Blades character is just going to piss me off something fierce too as even more heavy handed and cliched. he is going to be the wise sage (like Dale) but has to be latino because its LA and when he dies a gruesome death at the hands of a walker, it will not be soon enough for me.

Re: AMC's "Fear The Walking Dead"
Actually most, if not all, stories are a rip off of some previous work

Re: AMC's "Fear The Walking Dead"
Very good story. Yes, I'm aware that no matter how good it looks on screen, it's actually the opposite on set. And that the best-looking actors no matter how friendly their characters may be in real life they are cold fishes. I can appreciate that staring at a woman's crotch for five hours, no matter how much you may have worshiped her on the screen can get to be less than a positive experience.
Case in point: the lovemaking scene between Sharon Stone and William Baldwin in "Sliver" (1993) was very unpleasant for both of them because they really hated each other. At one point Sharon bit William's lip on purpose with hostile intent.
I'm also not naive to not know that in many cases when shooting porn, even if both people in front of the camera orgasm, it doesn't necessarily mean they like each other. Both people in question can actually hate each other's guts and still successfully complete a sex scene.

Re: AMC's "Fear The Walking Dead"
What I don't like about both series is that IMHO, they are moving too fast with the storyline...
