Didn't ya'll want TD to go back to the Lovecraft/occult shit?

furthermore, the postcolonial elements I referenced here

>implying s4 is neonoir
>not seeing the exact same subtext and very similar imagery
>not understanding what ESG is or knowing what postcolonial themes and climate change resistance narratives are
You are brain dead.

are completely hamfisted and have nothing to do with TD as originally conceived by Pizzolatto. Blatant copy-paste job from a rejected Terror update script, and you'd have to be brain dead to miss it.

It’s more that you’re too moronic to understand the difference between a “reference” and the entire project being a modernization of The Terror

Some anon called it last thread.

The script started as a Terror modernization with a lesbian romantic duo lead and female non-American director to get diversity points on social media. They then bought True Detective IP and paid pizzaman for his name to be attached as exec producer to lure in old show fans.

But this is not a True Detective show in any way. It only seems more "paranormal" because its reference is actually S1 The Terror, not True Detective.

I wish Hollywood wasn't so cynical, it's frustrating. I won't even be pirating the rest of the season.

I can readily believe that it didn’t start as a TD script but I highly doubt it started as a modernization of The Terror. Like at least put them on a boat homie.

Sorry bruv I just don’t see it. Cheers.

This. It is about climate change.

like i thought they were done with doing this shit? i thought they learnt their lesson with shit like bud light and watchmen

I was here when The Terror and TD s1 were showing new episodes each week. The Terror s1 was a very popular show here.

Ah yes how could we forget, the boats. If there are no boats then TD4 cannot be said to have the same themes as TT. lmao

fricking moron, The Terror was all about them NOT being on a boat

Cinemaphile wasn't always this shitty, either. Doesn't really mean anything.

[...]
You must be the college educated anon.

ooooo it has one eyeeeeeeee

just like the girl who was beat to death had one of her eyes all fricked upppppp

its a revenge polar barrrrr eskimo spirittttt just like The Terrorrrr

[...]
Diff anon here. I never went to college and all anyone knows from the Terror is bears, boats, cold weather. Without explaining you are implying these things. You can call me stupid names but this is how Cinemaphile sees it. No one watched that show. Thanks.

I recognised him from Resolution

The Golden Compass

>muttmerica
Not white
>Phoebe Cates
also not white
but would frick until I died of a heart attack

Who knows, I guess we have to wait it out. But from the way it was framed on the episode, it seems that taking cheeky-piercings off the case was a sound decision by Jodie Foster's character.

Which whitey, spic-san? Why can't you name the character unless you didn't watch the episode?

Ad hominem. Which "anti-white" instances? Describe one.

>this is her second acting role
wow, someone saw her first acting credit and decided she was a right fit for this role? the only role i can think suitable for her as of now is to try and scare the evil presence by herself based on her perpetual pissed and annoyed tone and look delivered in a hammy and clunky manner

Lmao, true.

Was it just me or did Jodie Foster's adopted daughter admit to filming child porn? WTF?

Imagine if it was a male.

LMAO, I am not a Zio-Nazi, what makes you say that?

It is as if the Nazis weren't some neo-pagan racist death cult.

see

I am complaining about the theme's of the show not the character's themselves.
but if wanna get into the characters
black chick walks onto a murder scene without permission like in real life you can't do these things it's fricking comical

>velcoro's motives are to find the guy that raped his wife

this chick just thinks white man bad and white people bad

>You're acting as if the fricking FBI was handling the case.

now you are being disingenuous and arguing in bad faith and guess what if a whole bunch of foreign nationals die yeah it usually becomes a federal case....

how about that for reality. The chief would literally go hey this is way to big for us and since these guys are all foreigners the fbi should handle it because they have the resources to deal with it. We should just preserve the crime scene until they get here as to not contaminate it.

Even fricking Killers of the Flower Moon makes it clear that nobody gives a shit about natives.

Central Americans will literally be cooked to death by the dozens in the back of trailer trucks and it barely makes a blip in the news cycle. You are really smoking crack if you think the typical response to dead foreigners in America is call the FBI.

Well first of all they weren't confirmed dead until the final shot of the episode, so it makes sense that local authorities would he conducting the search. Secondly, if you think your plight as a "white collar" green card status wagie is going to confer immediate attention from the FBI you are definitely posting from Europe or Australia.

Why the frick would you need to contact a foreign national's government to investigate their murder? If I stab some German tourist to death in the middle of time Square, what can the German government contribute to that investigation?

>Some local state police has the authority to contact foreign relatives for questioning?

Yes, why wouldn't they? I as a private citizen could contact their relatives as a reporter and ask them any question I want. Even if for whatever reason the overseas witness refuses contact, the next step would be getting a warrant for a copy of the communication from the service provider, which is something local courts can order.

>with proper visas
>he honestly, genuinely believes US agencies give a shit about that

it's like this bro the victims families will want answers and go to their own governments over the incident
something like this would make global news
the foreign nation's the victim's are from will put pressure on the u.s.a. to figure out what the frick happened
they wouldn't just allow some police chief to handle it, the fbi would be asked to take over and investigate

>Of course they would immediately escalate it to the FBI in a real world scenario
No they wouldn't. We'd hear about missing native women and murdered native men every week if that was the case. You're so fricking brainwashed by American TV shows and films about the FBI that you genuinely think they're the good guys.

They absolutely would, you fricking moron.

>You're so fricking brainwashed by American TV shows and films about the FBI that you genuinely think they're the good guys.

Where did I say the FBI are the good guys, moron-kun? I literally said that the reason they would escalate it to the FBI is because of money.

Yeah I don't think the cops in Season 1 were boobs that couldn't even handle turning off a TV while setting up right next to it. Shit belongs on the Disney channel yo.

>the single unifying theme of True Detecrive is that institutional authority doesn't actually give a shit about the crimes being investigated on the show
Institutional authorities do care about money.

Calling it now, in the next few episodes someone in the show will b***h about how nobody cared about native women being murdered, but that the moment that white men are killed the FBI storms in guns blazing.

I don't give a shit about the ethnicities of the murdered men, but it is quite clearly one of the themes they are going to talk about in the show.

A local chick getting murdered isn't a big deal. If the entire staff of a research station vanishes and all that is found is a tongue, and none of their families have heard from them, then it should probably be escalated to at least a larger neighboring agency that doesn't have their chief of police personally investigating cases.

Well they escalated it enough that there were choppers searching for the lost researchers. That's beyond just the local town police already.

Yes, some very rural departments have small aircraft or helicopters when otherwise a department of their size wouldn't. But either they have really dropped the ball in portraying how large the department actually is, or it appears to be less than 10 people.

>velcoro's motives are to find the guy that raped his wife

>this chick just thinks white man bad and white people bad

My point is that both of them have a hair-trigger temper and usually express their aggression in a physical way.

Chamistry has nothing to do with friendship ya moron

Yea, and I really liked S1 too, so that is saying something.

>by real government law
We both know you don't give a shit about government law, so why the frick do you have to nitpick this issue you clearly don't want to accept as solved? Guess what: Alaska isn't like your Hispanic country. Nobody gives a shit about piercings like you hispanics do.

>real law enforcement agencies
I thought tribal police was a fake police, spic-kun. Can you make up your mind?

see [...]

>You're acting as if the fricking FBI was handling the case.

now you are being disingenuous and arguing in bad faith and guess what if a whole bunch of foreign nationals die yeah it usually becomes a federal case....

The black cop found the crime scene, speedwatcher. She didn't "walk into" anything.

>The two law enforcement agencies we've seen so far in the show are real agencies
Says who, spic-kun? They have less jurisdictional rights than the tribal police.

its all supernatural hogwash

Who cares? That's what people thought about season one, and even though it dropped those elements everyone sucks its wiener.

>The black cop found the crime scene, speedwatcher. She didn't "walk into" anything.

ok you didn't watch the show because if you did you'd know that
the delivery driver called it after everyone was missing and only finding a tounge
then the chief and the other male officers came their and called in a missing person's operation
if you'd watched the show you'd know black chick and jodie foster work at the same fricking station and she was aware of the whereabouts of the crime scene through just talking with jodie foster's charater lol in her office

>ok you are now le troll
after losing the argument

>if you'd watched the show you'd know black chick and jodie foster work at the same fricking station
They don't anymore.

He was talking about pierced cheeks going into the research station.

Jodie is the Chief of Police and it's her jurisdiction. She can't break into her own crime scene. Black chick is a statie or something now which is why Jodie told her that it wasn't her jurisdiction.

Who was she supposed to let know? The lab techs that it doesn't look like they have on staff? The investigators which they also don't have because she's doing it herself as the chief?

>Her superiors
She's the chief of police.

It's standard procedure to just discount the finger prints of any and all law enforcement on crime scene evidence in America. If you've got a badge you're good to go. Are you suggesting this keystone cop mining town in Alaska has some kind of strict chain of evidence rules? Lmao

>ESL word salad

You mean SEMANTICS, you stupid fricking ape?

>if you'd watched the show you'd know black chick and jodie foster work at the same fricking station

No they don't, moron.

>so why the frick do you have to nitpick this issue you clearly don't want to accept as solved?
Because the show is about real law enforcement agencies that have some semblance of standards and you're citing tribal police which are completely different as a valid comparison and justification for something in the show.

>I thought tribal police was a fake police
They are. The two law enforcement agencies we've seen so far in the show are real agencies. Someone complained about how someone from a real police department is portrayed, and then you justified it by posting people from the aforementioned fake tribal police.

>Report: At least 14 Alaska cities have officers with records

>ANCHORAGE, Alaska (AP) — At least 14 cities in Alaska have employed police officers whose criminal records should have prevented them from being hired under state law, the Anchorage Daily News and ProPublica reported Saturday.

The news organizations said they found more than 34 officers who should have been ineligible for these jobs. In all but three cases, the police hires were never reported by the city governments to the state’s Department of Public Safety, as required, the Daily News and ProPublica reported.

In eight additional communities, local tribal governments have hired tribal police officers convicted of domestic violence or sex crimes, the news organizations reported.

>All 42 of these tribal and city police officers have rap sheets that would prevent them from being hired by the Anchorage Police Department and its urban peers, as Alaska state troopers or even as private security guards most anywhere else in the United States, the news organizations said. Many remain on the job.
