The violence in Oldboy will probably remain about the same but the ending and the backstory will probably be neutered. It's the revelation of why Dae-su was imprisioned, what Woo-jin did to destroy him and the aftermath. I can't see a Will Smith movie with that dark of an ending. If they keep

I love the show, and I think what is hurting it isn't the actors but the uneven writing--which is pretty much what happened to Torchwood during its first season. I am hoping that they'll clean that part up and have a FANTASTIC second season. The show has a lot of potential, and I'm frankly

I watch it, but it annoys me more and more. Perhaps it the Louisiana locale. I live here and know how ridiculous the background assumptions are. Even K'ville was more true to life. Yarbro would never allow it, but I am hungry for a show from the vampire's POV like her St. Germain character.
