The only reason season one seemed less dark was because it took a long time to develop the two lead characters into the crazy mofos they were eventually revealed to be.

Nothing wrong with a slow burn in my opinion

Just binged on Horace and Petes. Very dark not what you expect from Louie CK. Some fantastic actors and acting. Alan Alda is phenomenal. I highly recommend it. Touches on a lot of social issues that get you thinking.

Nocturnal Animals is a solid movie.

I agree, although the ending was a slight let down. But still a very good film, and contains one of the very best performances of the year in my opinion, Michael Shannon was brilliant in this picture.

Whats Shannon not brillant in? Midnight Special, Take Shelter, Frank and Lola hes amazing in all of them. I thought it was a career making performance from Aaron Taylor Johnson who is married to a woman like 30yrs older then him.
I thought you could look at the ending one of 2 ways. What's your take on it?

ATJ was very good as well i concur. In terms of the ending, i just felt they built up the tension so much i wanted to see him show up to there and meet her, no matter what happened as a result, you know? My wife felt the same way. But still a very good film. Back to Shannon, of the films you mentioned i have only seen so far Take Shelter which was excellent as was his work. I thought he was very good on Boardwalk Empire.
