Here's an interesting article with more background on the varying runtimes throughout this season, including the 30 minutes of 1x06. Some spoilers on the 2nd page, so avoid those if you haven't watched it all the way yet.

its moo motherfucker, its moo!
I didn't see anything about Kev and V's revenge on Svetlana. Did I miss something?
I love finishing a season and thinking 'that could be a series finale'. That's what just happened.
Seven Samurai can only be described as magical piece of art.
Don't let the 210 minute tag on the movie scare you. It is worth the ride and experience.
Each samurai has a distinguished trait which makes them memorable and allows the audience to form a bond with them
The cinematography is simply outstanding especially when it comes to the scenes that include rain.
An easy to comprehend plot with thrilling action scenes is also what adds to the appeal of Seven Samurai.
Depicts the Japanese culture and relation between Samurai and Farmers in the 1600s.
Memorable movie quotes:
* This is the nature of war: By protecting others, you save yourselves. If you only think of yourself, you'll only destroy yourself.
* Danger always strikes when everything seems fine.
just want to make something clear: she does NOT look like katy perry AT ALL
This was, without a shadow of a doubt, one of the greatest episodes of television I've ever seen. The show in general is amazing, but this episode was just UNREAL. Sterling K. Brown and Ron Cephas Jones were simply breathtaking. WOW.
"The more you know who you are, and what you want, the less you let things upset you."
I give it a 10/10 for Nick Offerman's performance in this episode. Quit fantastic.
"It's just a flying saucer, Ed. We gotta go." lol, Peggy kills me.
I'm not sure this is a worthy continuation of the tv-series. I really liked the series, but this movie kinda falls a bit flat. I don't know if I'm grown up since I saw these guys last, or if it's possible to take immaturity too far.
There were a few good laughs, and it was great seeing all the characters again, but again, I wasn't really all that impressed.
...and well...I kinda liked the football part of the series. No football at all in this movie.
Magnolia was absolutely perfect. The sheer scope and ambition alone is amazing, but the fact that it all comes together, that PTA managed to pull it all off, is incredible. This huge mosaic of intertwined stories, of individually fantastic performances and moments that weave together to create this audacious tapestry of a movie. The flawless opening sets the stage and introduces the many seemingly disparate characters, all played by an unparalleled ensemble cast, but as the movie gets underway, connections and similarities emerge as the storylines begin to entangle. Listing all the things that make the film the masterpiece that it is would just mean listing everything that makes a movie. Magnolia is beautiful, it's perfect, it's the second best movie I've ever seen and I love everything about it.
10 for the first story line and 5 for the others.
4 episodes to go and 90% of the season until now feels like a huge filler.
To call this another Marvel winner would be an understatement.
Volume 2 is the best cinematic experience I've had in a long time. The action is great, the various cameos hilarious, the effects awe-inspiring and the laughs frequent and well-placed (one of the few gripes I had with Doctor Strange). And in the midst of all this, what really drives the story and keeps the audience interested is the character development. The heroes with which we fell in love in Volume 1 become deeper and multilayered, and the new additions add fantastic new dynamics.
While still falling victim to some minor storytelling tropes, GotG2 is the epitome of the spectacle movie.
Me, at the beginning of the seasons: do gods die?
Me, after this episode: do gods have dental plan?
Wonder Woman is... well... wonderful! This movie is a true representation of the characters I have grown up with and loved from DC comics and the justice league animated series. This movie is about how Diana the princess of Themyscira becomes Wonder Woman, a classic fish out of water tale of innocence and heroism.
The chemistry between the two leads feels so natural and it is because of this chemistry that Steve's sacrifice is so heartbreaking . While the movie may not be as layered or multifaceted as other DCEU offerings such as Man of Steel, making use of a more classic 'by the numbers' superhero formula, it is undoubtedly a more meaningful movie. It shows us the true nature of humanity through the eyes of an Amazon who has no preconceptions or history with our species. It shows us the ugliness of mankind, how cheaply we value human life with the wars we create, and how stereotypical gender roles have been/are to the detriment of women without bashing us over the head with a heavy-handed feminist agenda. On the other hand, through her eyes, we also see the things humanity is capable of through the power of love.
Despite the importance of this movie, Wonder Woman doesn't depress or bog the audience down. It conveys these important messages within the context of an uplifting film filled with fun, action and romance.
Critics have voiced their approval for this movie, but that shouldn't make fans of the DCEU fearful. Wonder Woman seamlessly fits in with the DCEU, making use of similar colour palates, action direction, and story telling. While this is a movie all little girls must watch, it is truly a movie for everyone... it is simply... WONDERFUL!
I got acquainted with Michael Mando, for the first time, while playing the video game "Far Cry 3", and since then I been following his career. His scenes in this episode (and throughout the show) keep showing us how talented of an actor he is. I'm hopeful it's this year he finally gets recognized because he's way too underrated.
Let's recap, DJ Qualls got his head ripped off, Nikki may or may not have met God in a bowling alley, Ray was reincarnated as a cat, Yuri is missing an ear and probably dead, Sy drank some "bad" tea, Gloria's son got socks for Christmas, Varga took a dump, and Emmit is going full Legion.
That was everything I could've ever wanted from an episode of Fargo. Insane tension and violence. Random surrealism. Black humor. A surprising emotional core peeking through. Beautiful cinematography. A hell of an ending.
I think I'm gonna watch it again.
Watching Jimmy bring ruin to an elderly woman's social life for his own gain was flat out disgusting.
It was the first time I've ever felt genuinely disgusted with him. All the other lies and schemes - even his bar scams as shitty as they were - didn't feel as repulsive to watch as seeing him manipulate those women like that.
Pride, anger and desperation have stripped him of his moral limits. If he ever had any they're gone now. He's not Jimmy anymore, he's Saul Goodman.
Varga can keep adding zeroes to his salary offer but Ray is the only zero that would make Nikki happy.
The exchange between Swango and Varga was amazing. They both playing some brilliant mind games and executing plans. Now that the IRS dude has the evidence, the finale is going to be a a massive explosion of awesome.
The rating should at least be in the 90s for sure! Very inspiring movie for me personally. If you have an idea you are trying to get off the ground, watch this movie, then you will start working on it immediately after. Trent Reznor & Atticus Ross do an amazing job with the soundtrack. Interesting note that approximately 83% of trakt has been coded while listening to this soundtrack :)
whoa MICHAEL WHAT WAS THAT???!?!
This show has some of the worst plot development I have ever witnessed. One second they are getting ready to pack up, the next second a couple zombies pour out, oh no, wait no big deal they have guns. But wait! theres more! 500 zombies then appear out of thin air, almost like they all have slippers on and weren't making a single sound, I wonder which zombie was leading the takeover as it was clearly coordinated. It is like whoever is writing this has forgotten EVERYTHING that made the original walking dead great. Realistic character development, toying with the concept of murder and survival. This show throws that all out the window in favor of "crazy intense fight scenes" and "nothing but action".
I really hope this show wraps up soon so I dont have to sit through more seasons of this garbage
That episode was LIT. Literally...

Slow. Built to a finale but a terrible ending. Bacon suddenly stopped being a cop for no reason and allowed Penn's character who is at least a murder suspect to walk away drinking whiskey. This is moments after some forced sentimental talk about the past to try and neaten up the story. Again. The ending was that the bad guys win ending. The bad guys being local bully mobster Penn with his two annoying cock sucker friends. Obviously true to life in that evil prevails but it didn't work for me in this movie by its own logic failures. Was it true to Penn's character, a man so proud with truth and paying for his crimes, how he never even confessed? Again, Bacon stopped caring about being a cop about the man he was just protecting?. Why didn't Robbin's just tell the truth instead being an obvious suspect? Instead of confessing he asks for a Sprite. That'll make you seem innocent yeah. Why could a boy that didn't talk secretly talk or was hinted to being able to? How did the cops just happen to show up in time? Was Penn's wife so sick that she really called him a king for being a murderer? Yes. Did Robbin's wife more or less get Robbins killed by presuming he murdered her to Penn thus leaving her child fatherless? Yes. Did Penn just kill a guy based on his own forced confession with no asking for evidence and then he's actually suprised when he got the wrong guy? Yes. And what was Kevin Bacon's wife's about, especially when we had over two hours to explain her? But it's OK... because Bacon makes a gun sign at the end to Penn and that has to mean something.
It's like the ending was a different movie which also revealed split personalities and a terrible movie.
What about the portrayal of Dave by Robbins. Acted well but a cliché abuse victim or what?
Talk about a movie with bad morals and holes
