    No, but... not to troll or all kidding aside (I wasn't earlier)... why was it shut down so fast if it was that good? :confused:

    Plenty. Tarentino, Fincher, Nolan, Wheden, and others have made some great stuff over the last couple of years.

    Thats because Hollywood is completely devoid of creativity and rehashes the same old garbage or makes super-hero movies all the time. Just through a title they are able to guarantee a certain degree of consumers. I'm tired of that which is why I have resorted more to T.V.

    Episodic content is currently in its golden age and actors are getting more respect doing TV more than ever. I thorougly enjoy Breaking Bad, The Walking Dead, Mad Men, Game of Thrones and Dexter to name a few.

    Having said that, movies still tell the complete story. TV series will evolve its story from season to season depending on ratings. There's no end until the show gets cancelled.

    In the end, the ultimate goal for all writers, actors, directors and contributors is to make theatrical movies. Motion pictures shall always rule supreme.

    The character development in TV is best

    The ability to create an experience/escape is movie territory

    I think the ordinariness of TV plays a role
    IF you went to the movies everyday . . like you watch TV
    it would not feel as 'epic'
