        HBO is running GoT S5 today (perhaps more I'm not sure) and I watched 3 episodes in full back to back. Um, okay? Can you say overacting, laughable dialogue and lazy story telling? Christ what is all the hype about? No knock on the flock have at it but I will be avoiding S1 E1 et al.

          Yes.

          Season 5 is probably even weaker than the rest(I think that has the stuff with Dorne in it, which is a real low point). But the others aren't much better. Season 1 is a slog of bad tell-don't-show blocks of exposition. I compare it to a Michael Bay movie. People enjoy the spectacle of the high-priced graphics and epic scale, but there's not much else behind it.

            I measure time on Saturday afternoon based on where AMC is in Godfather I/II. For example, I left to get my hair cut when Clemenza and Paulie were going to get mattresses (which did not go well for Paulie) and got back when Vito asked Tom to tell his Don what everyone seems to know.

              I'll say it, Book of Mormon is overrated. I prefer both Spamalot and Avenue Q over it in terms of comedic musicals. A Gentlemen's Guide to Love and Murder is also up there, depending on who they get to play the lead.

              Book of Mormon is outstanding for the first half hour and the last half hour, but simply an over the top South Park episode in the middle.

                You're killing me, unofan, because I love Book of Mormon, but I agree to a point. I haven't seen Spamalot, but Avenue Q is consistently funnier than Book of Mormon. The particular 'toilet humor' running gag in Book of Mormon gets old after one appearance. Plus, the first time I saw/heard "Man Up", I was borderline horrified, even as an atheist. I learned to enjoy it after a few viewings in YouTube, but as I told several folks after seeing it live, "If I were a Christian of any conservative, or even moderate flavor, that's probably the point where I would've bugged out."

                I do, however, love the romanticizing of Salt-a Lake-a Ceeety in song. Having been there several times, it's perhaps the second or third biggest pit in America, depending on your POV. Not to mention "Orrrlandoooo!!!"

                  True, but it's hard to parse SLC from those beautiful mountains in its back yard. Some of the canyons are actually part of the city.

                  And, to a lesser extent, the geologic wonderland in the southern part of the state.

                  Different thread though.

                    Oh, definitely. Just ignore the smog bank on your final descent into KSLC, and floor it out of town, and you're golden. It's a lot of crap to get through however, and easily takes 30-45+ mins.

                    SLC is Los Angeles without the palm trees. And LA is Detroit with palm trees. So, there you go.

                        You mention it a lot - I seriously need to see this film. Is it on Netflix or AZ Prime?

                          That I don't know. I had it on disc on Netflix a few years ago, and bought it the next day. The full speech of where that quote is from (not a spoiler):
