Re: Godless (TV)
I look forward to seeing this. Western is a huge love of mine. Some of the concept behind this one made me stall a bit though.

I was aware my comment could be interpreted that way, but I didn't mean it in an anti-feminine way or whatever. I love women.lennytheweedwhacker wrote:oh ugh yes women are the worstAnders wrote:It's about a community populated almost entirely by women.lennytheweedwhacker wrote:why's that? i don't know much about itAnders wrote:I look forward to seeing this.

Re: Godless (TV)
Actually the series is now getting criticism from feminists, because the male characters are more fleshed out than the women. It's in the link I posted.lennytheweedwhacker wrote:yeah, women are pretty coolAnders wrote:I was aware my comment could be interpreted that way, but I didn't mean it in an anti-feminine way or whatever.

Re: Godless (TV)
It's great.
Michelle Dockery is shockingly good. I didn't think she'd be able to pull off a frontier woman after seeing her in Downton Abbey, but she's great.
They try to mix racism and feminism into standard Western tropes and I think it works pretty well. Some people will probably find it a bit slow.
