When does season 3 start?

Sept 16th

 

[Socreges]

- Trailer #3 (1:30, youtube) *please spoiler tag any discussion*

...damn. One of the best cut trailers for a TV show I've ever seen.

 

[Cornballer]

Only a couple brief mentions of BE in the article, but this profile on Michael K Williams is worth a read for anyone that's interested:

I wish they'd film 2 seasons at the same time so we wouldn't have to wait a year for the next season.

 

[Cornballer]

HBO aired a little 15 minute recap of Season 2.

Was helpful to me, considering I forgot most of it already

HBO finally uploaded this. I haven't seen it on youtube yet, but I'll bump the thread when it's available.



- Distilling Season 2 (HBO video player, 15 minutes)

Need to refresh your memory of last season? Catch up with Terence Winter in this full-length show, including a look ahead at Season 3.

Thanks for posting these recaps. I had forgotten so much. My body is now ready. :O

- Short interview: Five Minutes with Boardwalk Empire's Michael Stuhlbarg

Michael Stuhlbarg is what actors call an actor's actor. The Julliard trained Cali native cut his teeth in the US theatre world before The Coen Brothers handed him his breakout film role in their existential black comedy A Serious Man, for which Stuhlbarg was nominated for a Golden Globe award. But academy voters weren't the only ones who noticed. Stuhlbarg's performance caught the eye of former Sopranos scribe Terrence Winter who cast the actor as the real life New York crime boss Arnold Rothstein in his award winning HBO crime drama Boardwalk Empire. Pedestrian caught up with Stuhlbarg to discuss the enduring fascination with gangsters, the challenges of playing a historical figure and the perks of portraying a pool shark.

A few pictures from the S3 premiere party earlier this week.

The S3 OT is more or less done. I'll put it up on Monday. We're just a little more than a week away from the premiere!

I'm looking forward to it! Both the show, and your OT.

That backdrop doesn't fit the show,

So pumped for season 3. No jimmy is gonna hurt but there are still a bunch of side characters I like.

 

[CyReN]

Just realized this is the first time I've seen him with his whole face.

 

[Fjordson]

Can't wait for the OT. Should be great.

And Gretchen Mol is so fine.

 

[SCULLIBUNDO]

Michael Shannon looking like a straight up boss.

 

[Dmax3901]

Dat Irish hair.

 

[SCULLIBUNDO]

I seriously can't wait for this to be back. Just over one week!

 

[Big-E]

Lucky Luciano looks straight goofy in that shot compared to the boss he is in the show.

Lmfao. Rothstein a little also.

I think they're incredible in the show, though. I could watch an entire series centered around them and Meyer Lansky in New York.

 

[SCULLIBUNDO]

Rothstein is awesome. I can't wait to get see more of that schmendrik.

 

[zero_suit]

Time flies!

 

[Grimm Fandango]

Just realized this is the first time I've seen him with his whole face.

With his beard like that, looks like he's got a huge head and jawline but tiny eyes.

Michael Shannon looking like a straight up boss.

He looks pretty damn good with that scruff!

 

[brianjones]

Lmfao. Rothstein a little also.

hard to believe rothstein is the same guy from "a serious man"

 

[Fjordson]

hard to believe rothstein is the same guy from "a serious man"

Yeah, that's true. Dude is a great actor. And seems underused, I don't think I've seen him in anything other than this show or A Serious Man.

 

[Cornballer]

Here's a few more for your entertainment:

I'm curious which of the smaller parts might show up again including Purnsley, Esther Randolph, Katy the maid, Benny/Bugsy, etc….

I think I saw Purnsley in one of the previews so he'll be back. And more Uncle Junior is always welcome.

 

[Cornballer]

Oh, cool. Purnsley was a great addition last season.

 

[Socreges]

Here's hoping Chianese's character gets fleshed out more. I feel like they're planning a lot more for him, but just left him in the background to begin with.

And one of the guys above looks like he's got to be Chris Moltasanti's brother...

 

[Fjordson]

Holy shit, I didn't even realize that was Dominic Chianese in the show. With the beard and whatnot. Mind blown.

 

[AlphaSnake]

Harrow's wife/girlfriend has some pair on her... :|

 

[Cornballer]

I'm rewatching "Under God's Power She Flourishes" - Jimmy hits for the full Oedipal cycle. :O Chilling final speech from Gillian "One day soon, he won't be a little boy anymore. It happens, just like that." Yikes.

Powerhouse scene between Nucky and Margaret towards the end, and Van Alden's bail out is fantastic.

Mickey Doyle is an underrated character and the actor does a great job. He's a cockroach that takes so much abuse from everyone, but he's still around.

 

[Count of Monte Sawed-Off]

Van Alden's escape was so perfect.

Glad to see Shannon is becoming a star, or is rising at least. He deserves it, his presence steals every scene he's in.

So awesome.

 

[DietRob]

Question I came in to ask..


YEEEEEEEAHHHHHH!!!!!!

 

[jvm]

Glad to see Shannon is becoming a star, or is rising at least. He deserves it, his presence steals every scene he's in.

Just watched Take Shelter last night. Very good to see him in another role, but it was hard to shake the feeling that he was van Alden for most of the movie.

FWIW, enjoyed Take Shelter, but requires an open mind on the ending. Just fair warning.

Televisionary with the early look at S3:

Watched the first two eps of the upcoming season of #BoardwalkEmpire and really enjoying this season so far. Cannavale smolders w/malice.

Nice. Was he a fan of the first two seasons?

 

[Cornballer]

Nice. Was he a fan of the first two seasons?

I believe so.

Tangentially related, I was looking through some of his stuff from last year and found this Jack Huston interview.

 

[Puddles]

I just started this show, and I'm really loving it so far.

That's the last post I'll make in this thread until I'm caught up.

 

[RatskyWatsky]

Whoaa, it never occurred to me that he was related to John and Anjelica Huston! That's awesome.

 

[Cornballer]

Season 3 thread is up. Please continue posting there.
