Fringe

[RicardoObviouso]

alright so i was on the set last week for a few days and i decided to rent the dvds. i've watched all episodes up to the end of disc 3 and i fuckin love this show.

 

the budget on this series for season 2 is $4m/ep, which is insane for a series. they had helicopters and boats last week.

[Crusader]

the first episode of this season had a giant x-files joke. also did you think of the main girl's acting as a little wooden sometimes?

[RicardoObviouso]

i havent seen any of this season because jasika* (astrid) told me to make sure to watch the finale first. to answer your question, ya i definitely think she's a bit flat... but to be honest i've kind of gotten used to it and its almost become part of her character, to me. that, and her acting seems top notch compared to some of the people they've had on playing villains and supporting roles. one of the producers told my gf that the ONLY reason they left new york was because the talent pool for screen actors there is complete shit.... and its only 2.5 hours from l.a. to vancouver.

 

* funny story about her... i had just seen the episode where walter met with the observer and he had to hide that resonating column that borrows itself into the ground... and she told me that when she was reading the script, she thought she was being killed off when walter poked her with the syringe.

[Crusader]

hey man, can score me something from the show? lol. i miss the x-files and fringe is awesome.

 

and shit, i'd rather watch the latest fringe than mark shit.

[RicardoObviouso]

i'll try. what do you want?

 

 

...and no, not olivia dunham's underwear.

damn. dunno man, a prop or maybe something walter or the observer related if possible? lol

[RicardoObviouso]

ok i'll ask my gf if she can grab something for you. i know they're super protective about stuff (eg. scripts aren't allowed to leave the set).

[Crusader]

lol thanks. yeah man, it'd probably ruin the ending or something if it were a script anyway. god, i miss the x-files lol.

 

i hope they can get skinner or cigarette smoking man on fringe somehow.

[RicardoObviouso]

so the chances of my getting you something off set are slim to none... however I can probably get a photo and autograph from Walter if you want.

 

my gf is top five on this production and the prop master won't even

let her grab something. I think it's because all thing Walter related are recurring and they need that stuff for continuity purposes.

 

she's actually doing a few days on a new show called human target.

[Crusader]

oh man, i'd love a walter autograph if that's possible.

[RicardoObviouso]

do you want it personalized or stock?

So I just caught up on flash forward, I've heard these shows are similar. Anyone draw an comparisons? I like x-files but it's mythology stand alone episodes bore me to tears. I've seen a lot of comparisons between those two shows. I'd glossed the thread, it seems like something i'd at least kinda enjoy.

[Crusader]

this is a really late reply but either would be cool.

[Crusader]

i can't stop impersonating broyles. he's like the black david caruso.

 

"what do shape shifting soldiers from a parallel universe want with frozen heads?"

 

so awesome.

[Crusader]

This is totally a reason to watch Fringe.

 

[Bigger Than Jesus]

There was a huge discussion going on at work today about this show. Some people said it's better than Lost. Others said it's balls. Either way, I'll give it a try. But if there are alternate timelines involved, so help me God...

[Crusader]

just a heads up nerds, apparently we'll see some naked agent dunham on some miniseries called "the pacific." ;)

[DeadArtist]

I love Fringe and all the actors in it. I would actually love to see Mulder and/or Scully appear on Fringe (someone brought the x-files up so I just wanted to get that out there) ...

[Crusader]

they actually were on, sort of. x-files was playing on one of the televisions in the background of one episode ;)

Yes it was on the season 2 premiere, I found out on my second viewing.

 

I love Anna Torv and John Noble as actors and when they speak in interviews. They seem so nice.

[Crusader]

Recently caught up with the season and I still like this show.

 

John Noble really shines this season and it's so cool to see how different he can act.
