TILT

I know we mentioned it in that thread about "3" (Dale Earnhardt movie), but I hadn't seen anybody talk about tonight's series premiere yet. It was better than I expected, although I think the pacing was a little bit slow at times. I have no interest at all in the potential "relationship" between Eddie & Miami, but the rest of the show was good enough that I'll check it out again next week. The Daniel Negreanu cameo was the best part since he's one of my faves to watch.

Having said all of that, I would have liked to see season 2 of Playmakers. DH was one of my favorite characters on TV since he was such an asshole and didn't even care that most of his team hated him.

Fuck! I missed it. I wasn't interested in it until I saw Madsen was in it, but then after reading up on it a bit it sounded badass. Hopefully ESPN will release it on DVD.

I'd almost be willing to bet money that you can catch it sometime this weekend as they showed it at least 3 times today. ESPN is almost MTVlike in their dedication to showing any new episode/movie they create a dozen times or so each week.

Or you know, you could watch it right now on ESPN2 as it's just starting

Sorry for the double post, but I wanted to get Zero's attention.

It was ok. The poker scenes were good but the rest was just kind of flat.

Sweet, I can catch it Wednesday, I work all weekend so I'm pretty much screwed there. Thanks guys.

Sucks that this isn't being shown in England.

[Hellfire]

I will most likely check it out, as it looked pretty interesting. I hope it doesnt suck though. I dont know why ESPN dropped Playmakers, I mean the NFL was complaining, but they could have gotten around that, I mean its not like they were saying that all that stuff happened in the NFL. I hope that they realize that they made a mistake and bring it back. I really did love that show

[existence02]

I missed it too. I'll try to catch one of the replays.

I thought it was pretty good for the first episode, as it set the groundwork for some interesting storylines except for the Eddie/Miami thing like naiwf mentioned. Besides that, I think the show has got a good future so far especially with the guys behind Rounders at the helm, I loved that movie way before the big poker craze hit and it's still a kick ass movie.

it has the potential but after Playmakers what guarantee is there that they don't fall under pressure from someone and stop the series. I definitely wanted Season 2 of Playmakers. It's hypocritical for them to be selling the DVDs for season one.....and not doing season 2.

Minus the fact that it's kinda silly.

Ah man! I really wanted to watch this. I had been planning to watch it all week and then day it airs, I forget it was on. Damnit, I'll just have to catch a repeat? And what exactly is it about? I know it involves poker, but what else actually is going on?

Thanks.

Anyone catch the episode tonight?

[TOG]

The show probably sucks, but I mark out for Madsen and love poker, so I still enjoy watching it.
