I hope for Wrench's cameo too, but sadly this is actually a common practice for Fargo promos to have Wrench and Numbers theme in them. Look it up.

Ewan is a 10/10 casting choice for you? Eh, I think his performance is passable, but far from perfect.

she's not a detective though and unlike Molly she's not overly competent, she actually comes off as kind of dim, especially after this episode.

I'm pretty sure the whole "Telex" dispute was her being sarcastic to the chief. Why do you think she's dumber than Molly?

Henchman thugs for this season looks to have potential, glad they're keeping up with that

>>82118550

I'm not getting any references and I'm still enjoying the show. This season has a nice Wes Anderson quality to it. Maybe that's a reference though.

>>82119920

So which one of the two is going to die?

>>82119990
fuck, that is a tradition as well isn't it.

Not sure if they'll expand a bit more on the Yuri Gurka backstory, but yeah, no clue who it could be this early in the story

I know that the first episodes "german interogation" scene is supposed to be a metaphor for this season's theme, but I don't know what the theme is.

Being committed to a lie that no one believes?

>>82116007
how does he do that with his jaw?

>>82119845

Replying with sarcasm to a serious question is usually a way of telling someone that you don't want to talk about it. Most likely she's already had that conversation with other people a hundred times.

>>82120133
>but I don't know what the theme is.
don't worry, we don't either
just pretend you understand!

>>82117061
I think he plays the bumbling naive innocence really well, even if his accent is shit.

>>82120133
The guy wasn't lying, the interrogator was gaslighting him to the point that his defense sounds like a lie.

>>82120133
I see it as an analogy to the Varga- Emmit situation. Varga/the german is in a position of power and is not giving the underdog a choice. Could follow the predator thing going on in S1 but in a more social way

>>82116007
Anyone know what all the untranslated lines VM was saying during the episode? Sounds like he spoke several different languages

>>82120175
>Replying with sarcasm to a serious question is usually a way of telling someone that you don't want to talk about it. Most likely she's already had that conversation with other people a hundred times.

That sounds like a real stretch on your part, this is like the first time she's met this guy and she's being a flippant jackass straight out of the gate?

I get the show has quirky characters, but I'd rather believe that she doesn't like computers and actually uses telex rather than she just rolls her eyes and acts like a cunt to a superior officer.

I don't know maybe it all ties in with how technology doesn't work for her (automatic door, cellphones etc)

>>82120368
The part when he says random shit in Emmit's office sounded like French. Looks like he basically speaks random european languages.

>>82120133
The theme is "look at how much of my dick I can fit in my mouth", same as every other thing Hawley makes.

>>82120418
I strongly remember him telling the word "imbeciles", so there is that. Guy was just swearing on foreign language.

I'm enjoying the Lovecraft undertone.

Reminds me of s1 True Detective.

Am I the only one that thought the series was in the 80s/90s until the second episode? I feel so retarded now.

>>82121011

If they had gone from day 1 they'd be looking at fraud/grand larceny for faking where they acquired their capital, as it stands now they're looking at getting straight fucking murdered or family members straight fucking murdered if they get out of line, FFS just searching for this guy got one guy killed, hopefully they picked up on that subtext.

Best part is that thanks to mustache there's going to be a bunch of attention drawn their way.

>>82121129
Minnesota is portrayed as quite small town and behind the times in it, so it's not that retarded. Costume choices didn't make it too clear either.

>>82121129
it's just to show how slow mid-west is with the changing of the times, it's only set 4 years after S1 and the introduction of smartphones, etc.

>>82121092

>I'm enjoying the Lovecraft undertone.

Where?

>>82117059

based Ewan maing the best out of that situation

>>82116081
>>82117061

Ewan McGregor as Emmit Stussy is great casting but they should have picked someone else for Ray, he just can't portray the slimeyness properly.

>>82121264
The sci fi books. One has cthulhu on the cover. Also hidden secret books are themselves an HPL thing.

>>82121092
>Reminds me of s1 True Detective.

The washed out cinematography is really similar.

>>82121549
someone also posted that one of the books has the text upside down for some reason inside the pages

not sure if significant or just some error

>>82121367
>he just can't portray the slimeyness properly

I think he's just supposed to be a shlubby loser. I get what you're saying, but I think the slimeyness would work for someone who was more of an asshole. As opposed to just a desperate slacker, like William H Macy in the Fargo film.

>>82119942
I'm talking about s2 and reagan era followed by non sequitur spielburger ufology for good measure. The entire show is a boring deconstruction which is the last harbour of postmodernity and I hope it goes away for good soon enough.

>>82121367
I don't think Ray is supposed to be slimy. He's just someone who had life pretty much never go his way, especially compared to Emmit.

>>82121949
Imagine being this much of a faggot

Say whatever you want about Hawley's writing, etc.

His music taste is always top-notch

What does her husband think of this scene?

>>82116007
The part where he's being too clever for the parking lot attendant was also kino.

If nothing else, this series already has great casting and music.

>>82119920
Fuck man,it's unreal to me. I know Goran Bogdan (the "russian"). It's mindblowing that he comes from a little town in Bosnia and Herzegovina and he is in one of the most coveted shows for actors. I mean how many american actors would kill for his role?

>>82116007
Seeing just the two episodes made me love season 3, especially V.M Vargas.

Vargas is Lorne Malvo reborn.

>>82122496

>>82122523

Well they have to come from somewhere. Also, it's not unheard of Balkan actors to act in big movies. We have talent here (but they mostly go abroad).

Make Fargo Funny Again.

>>82122813
yeah lots of heavy stuff in S2, which I appreciated. this one seems to balance the humor and absurdity with the dark stuff a bit better so far.

Imaging that if Lorne Malvo/Mike Milligan, Numbers and Wrench worked together, they would be Vargas, Yuri and Meemo.

Am I alone in feeling underwhelmed right now? It's like True Detective S2,I keep trying to convince myself it's good but I am just not feeling it.

I'm starting to get the impression that the Fargo series is too dependent on element of cops/criminals. But the problem is that if you take that away, I don't know how to make this show a "Fargo show".

Mike had the kitchen bros.

>>82116007
why is this series so comfy

>>82121129
I think that's the intention. Probably to go along with the theme of not liking technology that's been going on already.

Policewoman with computers and phones, old lawyer with the computer, Varga going on about how parking lots are good because they don't rely on technology, Ray still driving a clapped out car.

Maybe it's just me thinking it, but I feel like there's a definite theme.

MEW is the only one who is doing a poor job.

Is there a theme with steppe/horse peoples? The mongolian throat singing in the first episode, this slavic guy being a cossack, his asian buddy could very well be mongolian or something

>>82123834
he was already blown up on Agent Carter, I hope they don't just make him some typical antagonist to Carrie's character

any connections to the opening of the first episode yet in east germany?

>>82123951
The russian henchman is named Yuri (Yuri Gurka on wikipedia and on imdb, but who knows how reliable that is) so the actual young man that lived in that house prior could be him

>>82123308
It's pretty clear if you're not retarded

Anyone who searched Vargas via techology will get killed so... our gal will use traditional ways to find out his secret business

So surely this season will have a supernatural angle as well, right? Is Gloria a ghost? Were they hit by an EMP? What's up with nothing electronic reacting to her?

>>82123942
They never really did do a character like that. Remember Bob Odenkirk's character from S1, who is kind of set up to be a foil? Turns out to be alright.

She also used to be chief and is uncomfortable being demoted. Shes got a reason to reject him and be insubordinate

>>82121949
The Regan Era was predicated on being an era afraid of and anxious of the future. Thus the fear hanging over the whole season is the future. The whole season starts with Keiran Culkins gearheart being afraid of his future in his family. Patrick Wilson fears his wife's certain death. The actual corporate take over of the mob even describes itself as the future at one point. Its actually a really good example of picking a time period to support the overarching theme of your show, and the aliens are a nice magical realism touch to reinforce it. It's not deconstructive, it's constructing common meaning between various seemingly unrelated plot points. Its actually an example of good writing.

>>82116007
What's /tv/'s opinion on season 2? I've watched two episodes so far and I just can't get into it like I could with season 1.

>>82128810
Keep with it, starts out slow but gets really good by the end, although I still prefer season 1

>>82128690
>aliens are a nice magical realism touch to reinforce it

you do realize that actual magical realism has coherent plot structure and that it does not mean non sequitur?

>>82128810
just as its starting to be okay, aliens fly in to deus ex machina the main character (who can't die because its his flashback) out of an unresolvable situation.

>>82128690
All this is so painfully obvious and the entire season slacks off in the middle, drowning in references rather than trying to tell anything with semblance of a structure and will to create novelty.

>>82128969
Alright, will do. Thanks.

>>82129019
Except its hinted at throughout and woven into several character's experience throughout. Also it's Fargo, a show set in the midwest that is itself a myth by its own declaration. What's so wrong about borrowing mythology of the region and time. Chariots of the Gods was huge then, it was nominated for an academy award even.

>>82121129
>>82121231
The music doesn't make it clear either. Season 2 had 70s and 60s music, but season 3 doesn't seem to have modern songs..

>>82129028
Or you know it's about how the future comes in to save the day which is his whole arc, learning to embrace and look forward to the future. Hank's revelation he's trying to communicate with Aliens a la chariots of the gods is a nice reversal on everyone else's fear and anxiety towards the future. Once our protagonist accepts the future for what it will be, he's freed by it. But hey its a TRUE story so make sure to be autistic and get hung up on the plausibility

I definitely like Emmit's story better. Its a nice surprise, because I assumed he would be the bad brother more or less. Varga is pretty cool, but I think the escalation is gonna be a bit less tolling than the past seasons. I doubt as many important characters will die. Sy, and one of the two henchman will probably be the only big ones. Not sure if I like the more tame approach, but I'm excited to see it all. I do hope they get some of the intensity back. Seems calmer right now

>>82130153
I highly doubt he did. Hawley puts a lot of details into the show, and he does a fantastic job of tying everything together in a meaningful way. You don't have to like it, but that doesn't make it bad

>>82130216
Except half the scenes are completely meaningless references to the coen filmography. The other half are just chugging along each season's extremely weak plot. Weakness of the plot excused with the "tru story bro" bullshit at the start of each episode.

>>82116007
The show is way too slow pacing

>>82130216
Truly a master storyteller. Hanzee becoming Tripoli is the finest storytelling this decade.

>>82122943
>comparing 1st 2 episodes with the magnificent but slow build up of season 2
No one even realized Hanzee was going to be the endgame villain til the Blomquists escaped around the latter half.

>>82120133
The theme is stories, which is why they leave the word story lingering in each opening. The sci-fi stories the dead step-dad wrote, Varga using the company as a story for the money laundering, Swango wanting to write the story of their victory in bridge while ignoring reality.

>>82122943

I always love the two hitmen characters. These guys look like overstylized, techie versions of the Kitchen Bros. and Mr. Numbers and Mr. Wrench.

But Yuri raped women and ate babies? WTF.

>And is also tied to the beginning of the series?

My theory is Emmit will get Mr. Wrench to take them out somehow.

Plus Yuri punching Meemo then Meemo kicking Yuri back.

No, no, man. Yuri considers himself a descendant from cossacks, a group of people lived in East of Russia (Ukraine mostly). Cossacks were half mercenaries, half bandits, half soldiers and half freedom fighters. It looks like Yuri tooks that half bandit part more seriously than others though.

But he is the Yuri who killed the woman from the start? So, this series will mean that Yuri will be an important figure in the series as he is linked back to an old murder? Varga seems like a guy who "greased the palms" of those accusing the innocent guy and took Yuri to work for them.

>My guess is Yuri is the Hanzee of this series

I also love how he dresses like a 25 year-old when he's over 40. Plus...

Anyone know what language Varga was saying to Meemo?

>So we've seen how criminal organizations run in Fargo with Brad Garrett having slideshows of the Gerdhartz, is Varga - the actual boss or a Mike Milligan/Brad Garrett type? They've sussed out Emmit's organization - possibly Mike Milligan's organization with Mr. Wrench getting revenge? It feels like the theme is Cold War. Ray represents America, Emmit Russia.

But she's actually fucking crazy. I'm glad.

I did wonder myself how much of Thewlis' performance is disguising what feels like verbose and unnatural dialogue. Verbose and unnatural isn't bad in itself, but it doesn't feel particularly poetic either.

I usually like Ewan McGregor but he's barely passable in Fargo. I'm not even a native english speaker but I can hear his Scottish accent from a mile away, and his overall performance is *okay* but certainly not impressive in any way. Everything else about this season is 11/10 though.

It's not about fear of the future it's about the rise and fall of empires. From Molly's mom's cancer (which colonises her body, a foreign, malignant growth) to the aliens (an advanced civilisation encountering a primitive one), to the Gerhardt's attempts to resist the Fargo mob's takeover, and Hanzee's (a literal native) resisting the Gerhardt's, and becoming an insurgent, it's about imperialism. or the transition between ways of life.

>>82135704
There's no maybe about it. You are a fucking idiot. Watch shows better. Lovecraft is cosmic horror. It's about beings, entities and concepts too vast for human imagination. VM Varga is not too vast for mortal minds. He's a Limey scumbag extortionist and loan shark, but operating at the highest tier. Lovecraft is not interchangeable with horror. They are not synonymous. His is a specific genre of all horror, and it's fucking stupid to generalise all things that are based on "fear of the unknown" to Lovecraft because Lovecraft has become a lazy, asinine meme that's misused and abused by fuckwit millennials to refer to anything they find even slightly "spooky".

>>82137712
Oh, interesting take. I like it. I guess I approached him assuming he was supposed to be a lyrical, philosopher like Milligan, but maybe you're right, and they're going for disjointed and unhinged.

I just rewatched s02 and I honestly don't know from where do you come from(except personal opinion or taste, which I respect fully ),
objectively, show is highly above average, from story to casting.
At worst its dark-comedy copshow filled with really interesting characters , fuck,s02e08 is watched in one breath(comparable by much better movies), even when you watch it for a second time.

Yeah okay I dont disagree but you're missing context. Theres a reason for the clip of Carter saying that there is a crisis of confidence in our future. There's even that point near the end where a UFO bumper sticker has the text like, the future is here or something. Also Peggy and Ed dont really fit into empires. Peggy is afraid of her future she planned not coming true and then Ed is too.

So is Noah Hawley the reason why this show is so consistently amazing? He's the only one who's been involved since the very beginning. He also wrote Legion which turned out pretty great.

VM Varga's attitude towards Americans is especially appealing to Europeans like me.

It is like an exaggeration of our mentality differences.

>>82137662
The show is entirely predicated on references to far superior works, and starts working backwards from the "big ideas" instead of taking the time to build a solid foundation of characters and plot that work on their own while revealing the themes organically. It's the very definition of pseudo-intellectual, and anyone who gobbles it up without recognizing how terribly it's constructed should not be disparaging anyone else's intelligence.

I just wanna say this guy is a fantastic actor, he stands out in every role I've seen from him. A Serious Man is great, he was great on Boardwalk Empire, and I didn't even fucking recognize him in Steve Jobs.

And now he's great on this show, too. That scene where he confronts Ray at the diner and then rams his car in the parking lot was hilarious

If there's anything paranormal in this seaosn it's going to be Coon and technology.

judging by the fact he takes that phone call and gives the truck permission to park but stops short of saying it's by Emmitt's permission, I'd say it's more just that he sees himself as such a close friend (almost surrogate brother) to Emmitt he's willing to take the hit for him if it comes down to court

he said "that guy's probably dead", a lot more vague

>>82152962
Yeah you're dead-on with the "surrogate brother" thing, he's much more hostile towards Ray than the situation actually calls for. There's obviously some level of jealousy there, because Ray is "family" while Sy feels like he's EARNED a higher position in Emmit's life. He's caught up in their sibling rivalry as if he's a member of the family, himself

>>82143752

In season 1, boss of Fargo cartel says while eating lobster: Kill or be killed. Head in the bag. That is the message.
