It took me a LONG time to get to it, but I just finished binge-watching it, so thank you, thank you, thank you. Very dark and Not For Buck in many, many ways, and to some extent Not For Americans in many more ways, but really interesting. Well, Happy Halloween and don't let the eBullies get ya! This year I'll be watching the parade of tricksters on my security cam.

Re: [FairfieldLife] 'Tis the season of the witch
The rest of the year the 31 Days thread rates and reviews horror films we've seen. It's a fun group. Most recently folks said that we didn't need to watch any movies for 31 days of horror, just the evening news. Looking at the archives apparently it was Salvyavin who alerted us to Utopia and you thought I would like it because of the conspiracy in it. I couple months back I bought the UK Bluray from a forum member in the extras Dennis Kelly, the creator of the show, said he was inspired by all the conspiracy theories around. Unfortunately Channel 4 announced they wouldn't be releasing a Bluray of season 2 because of poor sales of season 1. I hope HBO keeps the aspect ratio, color grading and no close-ups. That apparently will be up to David Fincher who is doing the HBO version. I also wouldn't be surprised if it launches the same time Game of Thrones since Utopia grabs a different fan base.

Re: [FairfieldLife] 'Tis the season of the witch
Ebola looks like a parasite so I looked it up and most all viruses are indeed parasites though it is a subject of controversy among immunologists. My bet it just doesn't like certain things in your blood. It may not like hot spices for instance. Notice there have been no outbreaks in India. I recall a Sopranos episode where Tony and the boys go have some India food and then get sick. Tony wants to off the restaurant owner but sees his doctor first who tells him it is unlikely they got it there because of the clever use of spices in Indian cooking which keeps parasites away. Bring on the chilis! I better go stock up on chocolate since the harvest was usually done by workers from the Ebola stricken countries and the cocoa growing countries have blocked their entry. But we westerners love our chocolate (dark for me only and at 90%) so perhaps robots will take over the harvest. ;-) OT: notice the price of butter lately?

Re: [FairfieldLife] 'Tis the season of the witch
Bhairitu, thanks for info about parasites. I had no idea. Confession: I don't eat butter. I'm into coconut oil these days. And of course, olive oil for a long time. What's going on with butter?
