>mfw painting a house and i get the paint all over my ears
just rewatched S1 for the third time, it's still glorious but goddamn the whole conclusion that the green eared murderer must paint houses for a living was borderline retarded...
what the hell was pizza thinking?
how do you even explain Marty's train of thought?

They wrote themselves into a bit of a hole, in the grand scheme of things it's a minor deus ex machina
genuinely happy pizza isnt really involved with s3 desu
he has some cool ideas but is ultimately a hack
I remembered it as him wearing green earpro. Now I'm disappointed.
this would have made so much more fucking sense especially because we see him on the mower TWICE and not painting. what the fuck man
They followed every lead until one lead to something.
You aren't a true detective if you see the truth just by looking at the paranoid pin-board, you are if you keep doing the ground work. Rust kept looking. They could have found him out some other way, they could have found him out in a way that let them take down the whole cult, but they found him in this way. Partial victory.
He was painting that school when the woman came up and asked if he wanted a lunch.
Checkmate faggot.
>Truly, we are True Detectives
Fucking HBO.
>he doesn't listen to the paint dry
>he hasn't accidentally leaned in too close when the paint was wet and got it on his ears
I've lost all confidence in the shows creators after the trainwreck that was season 2. I mean it had its moments, but fell so far short of the first season's momentum. Are they really making a season 3?
They had too many great ideas they didn't execute on, it all turned out kinda disappointing
The first half is much better, the stuff with the yellow king, everything involving the cult, the weird imagery Rust would see, all could have been tied into something really interesting, instead it was just some boring redneck
Not every case is solved same way. Connecting a minor detail like a freshly painted green house and a drawing of a monster with green ears is an intuitive leap but it took them years to get to that point after exhausting every other possibility

No, fuck off.
Well, considering that they were just tracking a lead rather than (knowingly) directly linking them to the killer(s) I thought it was fine.
how do you create collages like this with a mac?
Does anyone think that the Nic Pizapintopie and Robert Downey Jr. show will more or less be True Detective or more like a regular police procedural.
This is what I assumed it would be and what would actually make sense. Bravo Pizza
you throw your mac in the garbage and go buy a real computer
Gargle a mouthful of draino and use whatever your equivalent of paint and basic common sense is.
Explain why , considering HBO had a winning formula in hand, disbanded the team for s2.
Explain why they dont bring it back for a s3 already
>s3
i haven't heard a single thing. i assumed it was dead. what have you heard?
...
There were rumors that it was dead and then some nigger came out and said it wasnt
literally my reaction, what an epic joke that was, i am dead
ya that shit was insultingly weak writing
>some nigger
elaborate please
how about typing "childress" into fucking google and searching for members of that family? they already knew at that point that the killer was from the childress family...
hell, they probably could have even found the painting business through some initial tax record research and that's just from the top of my head...
there were more believable ways pizza could have chosen to find the murderer but in his arrogancy he stuck with the retarded bullshit...
Pizza is writing Perry Mason for RDJ
ffs, i knew i wouldn't get a helpful answer, but then again, i'm on Sup Forums
I figured while watching the show that the "green spaghetti guy" was a dude in a ghillie suit hiding out in the woods to snag kids. Kinda spooky that way. The whole green paint on his ears bit was a big letdown.
Well of course it's conceivable. It's just that when the bar is set high, something meerly "making sense" or "being belivable" doesn't cut it.
Tom Waits as enigmatic bar tender is great
but I like this song for the theme instead

Are you mentally retarded? The story takes place before google.
Thanks for CTR.
Meant to put hbo nigger but srsly Google it it's the first link after the news
i cant tell if you're talking shit about macs or if you genuinely dont know how to use a photo editor.

This wouldn't be True Detective, but I would this show
>t. I don't understand ironic posts
How did they get away with this shot??
it's a reboot of Perry Mason so, no, it won't be like True Detective. well, i highly doubt it. it will be a legal procedural, not a cop/detective procedural. i think Pizz will probably want to jump ship from cop shows. he had his say, wrote one great season, one mediocre one. time to move on.
THIS!!!
>director
David Fincher (directing all episodes, though considering his usual tempo it could take two years to film 8 one hour episodes)
>writer
Andrew Kevin Walker (dude who wrote se7en and 8MM)
>lead actors
Patrick Fugit as a freshly transferred detective who had a tough upbringing and has a complicated relationship with his violent father. he is prone to spouts of anger and violence himself and experiences sleepwalking multiple times.
Gary Oldman as the more experienced deective.
Scott Glenn as Patrick Fugit's dad
MC Ride as a drug dealer and Gary Oldman's street informant
>story
set in Northern California, a series of rapes and murders occur in Sacramento whose trademarks resemble the ones that were committed by the Original Night Stalker in the 80s (real case, look it up). The detectives follow multiple leads into ghetto areas but it turns out that it was the younger detectives father who committed the rapes. He shoots his father in a final confrontation.
>theme song
Be Somebody (instrumental) - Clams Casino
i feel like it fits the urban setting
>i think Pizz will probably want to jump ship from cop shows
Pizzapito's other works indicate that he wants to explore a detective duo's dynamic.
i found the ending pitch perfect. obviously apart from the green ears bit. to this day i don't know how people took the red herrings and bait on the supernatural angle and expected some Cthulu type shit to go down at the end.
You're all dumb Sup Forums shitposters so you can't grasp what he was going for in writing that. Sure, it's sort of unlikely that someone gets paint on their ears. That isn't the point you fucking morons. The point is that it DID happen and that this extremely minor detail in connection with another extremely minor detail (a freshly painted house) is what broke the case.
It's funny watching you fucking morons "debate" things or call them stupid because you're only capable of thinking at the most superficial level. Back to Sup Forums you stupid cunts. Go circle jerk your garbage reasoning skills there.
goddamn you moron, i'm talking about episode 7 and 8 which are set in 2012. It's not until 2012 that they find out the killers surname (chldress).
i just can't comprehend the amount of stupidity in people like you...
Mwa ha ha yes.
I swear shit like Lost fucked television viewers in the head. Not everything has to lead to an epic twist or reveal, not every detail is linked in an epic web of deceit. Pizzapalace played it straight and never tried tricking the audience. Theory fags deserved what they got with all their constant asspull explanations and assumptions.
>The point is that it DID happen and that this extremely minor detail in connection with another extremely minor detail (a freshly painted house) is what broke the case.
Yea everyone here understands that. Did you just figure this out or something?
What does anything anyone said in this thread have to do with Sup Forums whatsoever?
Everyone calling it stupid doesn't understand that, you imbecile.
>dat superiority complex
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
>post your face when your life is so devoid of meaning that you samefag the same buttmad rant.

>board full of religious, low IQ, meme-spamming retards criticizes it
big surprise
so one or two people form the entire threads opinion?
Are you retarded?
>most brilliant season of television ever created
wut?
sounds cool, not sure if Patrick Fugit is right for the part though
There's literally no contest at all, and you're dumb as shit if you "disagree."
>most brilliant season of television ever created
>As aforementioned, Nic Pizzolatto has taken up a new project, Casey Bloys has reportedly communicated the willingness of the network to get a new writer for True Detective Season 3, reports The Christian Times. The contract Nic Pizzolatto had signed with HBO will not end only in 2018, but he is also lately into the early stages of Perry Mason reboot. So, Nic Pizzolatto can take the responsibilities of supervising instead.
>willingness
>can
nice meme
mate, TD's not even the best cop show, much less the greatest anything. it was a fun and entertaining 8 episode ride, but elevating it to The Sopranos, Deadwood, or The Wire level is as sophomoric as it gets.
It's better than all of those shows in every regard. You're a retard with shitty taste and poor comprehension.
The fan theory that he was wearing earmuffs from his lawnmower was much better
That scene is after he is revealed to the audience you dickhead
>Google obscure family name
>get jack shit
Boy I hope you take your talents to the nearest police department, quite the sleuth
>much better
It's literally the same thing. You're just extremely unintelligent so you're apparently hung up on the relative improbability of getting paint on your ears, which isn't actually meaningful. Your brain doesn't work correctly.
Did you miss the fact that their mystical ritual grounds had a literal higher dimensional entity inside of it and that ledouxs visions about rust came true??
is s2 really that bad? are we talking about dexter levels of shit? i've only watched s1 so far and it was pretty cool.
you should just watch it and form an opinion yourself
i remember early in s1 when they went around interviewing people, and they went to the house. i went "hehe that house has green ears, maybe the killer lives there!"
was shocked when several episodes later they brought the house back as a plot point.
No, it was just a meme by clickbait authors who couldnt follow the plot.
Hang on. I thought they realized that the green ears were earmuffs and that dude was wearing them?
It feels contrived, nothing else in the show feels contrived. We never saw this guy painting and the house is in a two second shot of a montage. If he was wearing his muffs it would fit with the audiences knowledge of the investigation and not feel like a plot contrivance
how the fuck do you assume that they wouldn't find anything? you really think that in our time police or private investigatots don't look at facebook or google at all to find out more about a suspect, especially if it's an obscure family name in Lousiana?
nah man, you are the one who should be the sleuth as you seem to be good at drawing logical conclusions...
Why would he wear them while attacking the kid though?
No they make up a bizarre theory about his ears poking out of a hat and he spills green paint all over himself and it goes on both his ears
I mostly agree on the ending being good, but I think a lot of people wanted more closure on the whole cult, rather than see it all boiled down to catching a single big bad.
Or they wanted a darker and more sinister ending, keeping with the tone of previous episodes, something like Marty dying and Rust getting falsely arrested and convicted for the murders, like the season was already kind of hinting would happen.
As for me, I just thought Rust's big near-death experience change of heart was really ham-fisted and kind of shat on his character.
If he first saw them while mowing he wouldnt necessarily take them off to chase
we see him paint though
...
AFTER HE IS REVEALED TO THE AUDIENCE
so what? this isnt some quiz for the audience, it 's a television show.
>the house is in a two second shot of a montage
but more than 2 but sure
> If he was wearing his muffs
he was wearing his muffs for about 10 seconds close up. is 10 seconds so much more than 2?
Its a mystery you cretin, people try to solve mysteries.
Man S1 was the fucking shit, I was chomping at the bit each week for a new epi
that kind of detective work was straight out of batman '66
We saw him riding a lawnmower twice before the reveal, its easy to guess he has ear muffs.
>cretin
wew
why the hell would he wear earmuffs while chasing someone through the woods? makes no sense.
guesswork? that's as contrived as the paint desu.
both the paint and the muffs are awful solutions. should have dealt more with the scar tissue, since we could see him with that on the mower, barely.
and guess that they're green too right? makes no sense and is already contrived. might as well guess it simply because he's mowing the lawn on the school in question.
Rust never should have solved it through the green ears, but after figuring out the identity he should have realized its the spaghetti monster.
