COP THIS: THE WIRE SEASON 3
Just finished watching season three of The Wire. I got plenty of friends who have never heard of the show. It's a favorite among the 30 and up crowd. It's about the interaction between Baltimore detectives dealing with street level corner dealers and attempting to apprehend the city's top dope kingpins.
Season one is like a great novel, starts out slow but by episode 5 the show finds it's flow. Season two starts off with thirteen women found dead in a can at the pier. Following a investigation that runs from human trafficking to terrorist conspiracy's. Season three making parallels to the 9/11 tragedy. From the opening episode of the project towers falling down to Slim Charles prepping Avon for war, "Even if it's a lie, we fight on that lie".
What separates "The Wire" from other cop shows and hood movies, other than the fact it's uncut HBO, is that the city of Baltimore is a character. It let's us see the protagonist and antagonist breath, think, panic and worry. David Simon understands this isn't a story you tell in two hours within a three act screenplay structure. It's a saga that needs 12 episodes, one hour running time.
"The Wire" could be a mirror for all other major city's. To show the domino effect in society. What the dealer did effects what the detective does, which causes problems for the police commissioner, which then in turn brings the politician to a state of the emergency address behind closed doors. And so the history repeats its self.

"People ask how music is going, I heard it pays/I just came off making 2 million in 30 days
Scared for the first time, everything just clicked/what if I don’t really do the numbers they predict/considering the fact that I’m the one that they just picked/to write a chapter in history, this shit has got me sick…"

"Thing I don't understand is pussy all that/but when it come to that paper pussy suppose to fallback/suppose to get the money first pussy call back/if I ain't a D-boy then what you call that"
Don Cannon killed it on this with the beats.
Flicks: Iron Mayne 2. A dying Tony Stark
Saw this over the weekend with the homies. This has the best of Super Hero movies from the past. From the dark humor (Hancock) to the best c.g.i. (Spider-man 2) to the great final showdown (The Dark Knight). This is by no means the definitive comic book movie. But a darn good one none the less. See it!
And is it better than the first? It's fresh in my head so yes. And if not it comes pretty damn close.
