@Eboue is a witch. Burn him!
Television True Detective | Season 2 Spoilers
- Thread starter Dirty Schwein
- Start date
Oh boy that was good. That fight was intense, there was real hatred in that.
Looking forward to what happens to Rev. Tuttle. As someone said above, it's been established that his house gets robbed and he dies of an 'overdose'. I think Rust/Marty were involved in that. Clearly Rev. Tuttle wasn't the head honcho if it's still going on in 2012...

Maybe Tuttle was killed to be kept quiet? Again, aside from the Rust/Maggie affair this show is totally unpredictable to call.
(Except The Yellow King, who I'm 99% sure on)

Considering that on here anyone who tried to say such a thing in the BB thread was called a wum and told to leave the thread for the people who liked it, it's not really surprising people are noticing it a lot more now they're not inescapably drenched in final season hype.
I wasn't one of these people fwiw, but I was certainly aware of a certain season 5 uberhype.
Often I find a few years distance from things tends to bring out the more accurate appraisal.
I think both this & BB are great btw. But still...

The Wire Season 3 is gonna have some company in my list of perfect stand alone TV Seasons pretty soon I reckon.
Tuttle died in 2010 and apparently Rust and Marty just talked to each other for the first time (in 2012) since 2002. I'm not sure of anything but if one was involved in it directly or indirectly, it can only be Rust.
Did the lawnmower at the school had any visible scars on his face ?
He's also due to appear in the final two episodes according to IMDB
This show is so dense. I'm going to re watch it all before the finale.

Thanks, that guy is probably the green eared spaghetti monster mentioned in episode 1 and maybe I sight pbs but I can't see if he has visible scars. I'm just wondering if the green eared monster and the man with the scars (the giant) are one and the same.
You can see the scar on his cheek if you zoom in.
Can't really see how tall he is so they could be different people yeah.
LeDoux was the giant, no? The guy was 6"7
The "tall man" had burns on his face, which LeDoux didn't. At least that's how the people at the revival church described the one hanging about Dora Lang.
Was it said who those people in pointed hoods on horses with dora lange in middle were? Although, it could just be explained as a southern thing.
They must be loving the product placement, feck it, even I want to have one.

They're even more brazen with Jamesons.
Not trying to trick you. Unless of course, he's trying to trick you.
Here's the great version of Sign of the Judgment from the end of the ep too.

Personally, all I expect from the ending are
I guess in the context of that article a 'trick' ending would be some silly twist that reveals
which would make a mockery of most of what we've seen previously.
Good shout on the end of episode tune too. Another one to add to the playlist.
the identities of the cult members and some closure on the stuff with Marty's daughter.

Rust or Marty to have orchestrated the entire thing

Agreed.
Also, I felt it worth noting that a "a man's game charges a man's price" is a fantastic line.
Here's another good track from the OST.

I think Maggie was just trying to drive Marty away and going through Rust was the only way to absolutely break him.
Oh yeah, that's a given. But I feel the same objective could've been reached by being truthful about her intention to "use" him. She left everything up in the air (and to Marty's imagination) about the nature of it, which was needlessly harsh on Rust IMO. But then, I suppose that "imagination" angle could've easily been part of the ploy. It becomes a lot more bitchy though.
Am I the only one who has a problem with this? Posting a picture from an episode with a theory is fine, but don't post who is going to be part of which un-aired episode. You've got to understand that's not okay.
You posted it in a spoiler, but people have been using spoilers in this thread just to discuss certain episodes, or post theories. At least mark it.
I agree. Could do without even knowing you could see that on IMDB to be honest! Now I'm just tempted to see who appears in the last two to try and mould a cogent theory on where the show is going.
Agreed.
Without even hearing the writers say there is no "trick", for me the show was really all about the relationship between the two main characters and how it's developed in the span of 17 years. The plot, the conspiracy, the cult and the murders are the icing on the cake as far as I'm concerned. Cohle is a great character but so is Marty, they complemented each other well in good and bad things. This is a show I could watch several times easily just because of the dialogues.
Would Cohle have accepted to do her if he knew her true intentions (despite being drunk) ?
Why didn't Rust just tell Marty about his theories of how deep the conspiracy went? Why did he have to let it develop into this big public showdown with Marty in front of the police chief?
Marty probably would have believed him, and if not, Rust could have convinced him. Unless Rust found pictures of Marty's daughter years before and that was why he didn't want to involve Marty.. it just doesn't make sense. Marty would have had his back.

Yep.
This was a nice closing song to episode 5.
also Wu-Tang in the background during the drug bust scene.
No, but I mean more truthful to Marty, in an attempt to lessen the blame on Rust. Sort of. Most men's minds work very tribally in that kind of situation, he was always going to go after Rust, she could've at least softened his paranoia and hatred by ruling out the idea Rust pursued her, or was going behind his back the whole time etc etc, all of which would be very natural thoughts to a man like Marty in that situation. A man will usually try and blame the other man.
I understand it now but Marty being the thicko he can be, I don't think it would have mattered to him. To his simple mind, it would have been a case of another man mowing his lawn.
Yeah, it was better dramatically too. I just feel bad for Rust.
Unfortunately I've just read that Cary Fukunaga will not be director of series 2. He will stay on as executive producer though, which can mean anything really.
The gothic atmosphere he's created is superb but I trust Pizzolatto to keep the show on a great upward curve.
I hope they can keep the same cinematographer at least, and T Bone Burnett.
Are we assuming that the next season will mainly focus on the two "current day" detectives (the 2 black fellas) or is there no suggestion of that yet?
Next season is a brand new start with brand new characters. Nothing to do with this season I think.
Fair enough. Will be interesting to see how they do that.
Yeah, I wouldn't expect those two detectives. Partly because they're not very big names, and I think half the point of an anthology series on HBO has to be attracting bigger names to do TV.
Well, that's what I hope, anyway.

Let's hope they can maintain the quality. Be interesting to see which actors they can attract.
Maybe they'll do it a bit like American Horror Story? Same actors, different characters.
