AMC's: Into The Badlands!

TXSTYLE · 11-25-2015, 06:20 PM

Great show that I am enjoying EVERY minute of! It is getting critical acclaim all over the place as well. Love the entire cast and the action and fight scenes are BRUTAL! If you enjoy martial arts and swordplay and high-octane action, you want to see this show...

Here is a interesting origin of the main character Sunny: http://io9.com/discover-sunnys-origi...e-i-1744629071

I saw the first episode, have the second still on DVR. Swords and cleavage, with some sort of back-story (pun) are always good for a few weeks of watching.

RickFLM4 · 11-25-2015, 06:47 PM

I have both episodes on the DVR but not too interested in it. Will probably let a few more accumulate and watch over Christmas holiday time.

It's a great show, I love it so far: good action/fighting sequences, decent acting, good storyline. Wu reminds me of a younger Donnie Yen, and for some reason, the Widow is god damned attractive!

Digging the show as well....

And redheads are either smoking hot.....or they are not. No in between....

hongsc · 11-26-2015, 02:47 PM

Donnie Yen is the real deal. Daniel Wu isn't. I bet RZA is wondering why his crappy movie The Man with the Iron Fists couldn't be this good.

And red heads are smoking hot, wild, crazy, or just boring.

kevinbahnz · 11-27-2015, 12:28 PM

Saw the premier. Good action but couldn't keep up with the story. I have the 2nd do on dvr also but not in a hurry to watch it.

RickFLM4 · 11-27-2015, 07:08 PM

I caught the first episode today but think I'll pass on this one.

RedlinePSI · 11-28-2015, 01:42 AM

I just watched the first 2 eps and it's definitely pretty cool. Going to continue and see where it goes.

Doc Oc · 11-28-2015, 06:17 PM

Excellent show! Action is great and well filmed, and the red head is smoking hot. I like the concept with the barrons and whatnot.

bosstones · 11-29-2015, 07:51 PM

Hmmm...I'll have to check this out! Martial arts and sword play.....mmmmmmm....

FriskyDingo · 11-30-2015, 08:37 PM

Watched both episodes so far, and really dig it. A little different story line from the usual stuff.

1MOREMOD · 11-30-2015, 08:40 PM

I grew up in the badlands and there was no sword play or Asians for that matter.

That's because they were all ninjas and were very good at hiding.

Just Indians as I recall and bikers once a year

I haven't made a decision on this one yet. Watched the first episode cause the previews were pretty good... watched the 2nd episode cause I was too lazy to get up and leave after TWD was over. Some of the fight scenes are cool but some of it just feels too cheesy to me.

UncleWede · 12-02-2015, 10:31 AM

"I find intelligence in a women very . . ."

I'm afraid I will soon tire of the fight scenes, and I couldn't understand a WORD of that freaking book.

TGNY 335 · 12-02-2015, 10:34 AM

Im definitely enjoying this show. PLENTY of action with a decent story line. Thus far the fight scenes have been great. The blood splatters at times are a bit overthe top, but outside that. Great series, looking forward to how it transpires.

UncleWede · 12-02-2015, 10:55 AM

^ yeah every now and then I wonder if I'm supposed to be watching with my 3-D glasses and looking for real blood in the first 3 rows
