Yeah, maybe it just seems to me like a bigger component than it actually is because it's the part I'm most interested in seeing play out.

I almost want it to just be a layer, because I'm kind of scared of the possibility of them M Nighting up the ending.
I just keep thinking of all they ways they could fuck this up.
How the fuck do guys like this come out of nowhere and deliver so much awesome?

He's not going to fuck this up. Pizzolato or whatever has a pretty damn clear idea of how the story plays out. I expect nothing but great things for the last three eps.

I can't imagine that everyone who was expecting some kind of grim HBO Justified would be completely on board with monologues about the nature of time.

My dad gave up after episode 3 because "nothing happened." I told him to check out episode 4, and if he wasn't into it by the end of that, then it's not the show for him.

You guys are really in desperate need for a new board punching bag, aren't you?

I think The Big Bang Theory would be more up your dad's alley. That Sheldon sure is a whippersnapper.

I think the sci-fi portion is a critical part, but not the main point. I think the focus of the story is how viewing such monumental ideas makes one crazy, thus Cohle becoming crazy by focusing more and more on the case. That falls within the lines of a) he's within Carcosa now joining Ladoux, b) reality is a flat circle; One insanity dies while another takes it's place, and c) The King in Yellow is a play that's supposed to drive the reader mad, The Yellow King is a practice that ends up driving Cohle mad the more he studies it.

Like I said, fuck Del Toro, Pizzolatto and Fukunaga are the good shit.

Hahaha

I really hope it's not a giant monster. I'd like it if there were some unforseen force driving this that is never fully explained, but I care most about Cohle going insane trying to figure out this impossible riddle, like Ahab chasing a white whale.

and as long has he's not allowing himself to be 'crucified'. im not even that into the average run of the mill hypocrisy of preachers worshipping demons. the cops i get. even teachers and politicians. i don't know. i don't know. i hate speculating but..

the source can't really be one man and some hierarchy on earth. but don't show me that it isn't either.

i'm a fucking premie
