My theory is that Woodley will see Kidman getting abused by her husband and freak out and kill him. The three women freak out and attempt to cover it up.

Post by: Institutional Control on March 21, 2017, 07:57:39 AM
I thought she jumped off a cliff at the end of the previous episode.  I wish Laura Dern's character would set herself on fire and jump off a cliff.
Title: Re: the big little lies thread
Post by: star seed 7 on March 21, 2017, 08:26:56 AM
Yeah, I don't think she killed anyone, but it puts to rest the perry raper theory.

Celeste at the therapist was jaw dropping good. The use of thought flashes in this show is really well done

i was kind of on board with the idea that psyko hubby got offed by single mom, but now I'm not so sure.  I think after her experience at the interior designers she will probably ditch the gun altogether.

does play producers wife find out and kill legally blonde?   Is that what this show is going to be - a murder over something very minor and which happened long ago?
Title: Re: the big little lies thread
Post by: MakeItRain on March 22, 2017, 04:04:39 AM
That's a good theory but I'm going to stick with mine. I think the murder happens the next episode.

Is Perry going to be pissed when he finds out everyone knows about his broken urethra?

Yeah, trivia night is the elvis party.

Kinda boring episode and it seems like way too much to wrap up fully next week.

Things that need to be wrapped up:
1.   Who is the rapist?
2.   Who is bullying Amabella?
3.   Who got killed at the party?
4.   Who is the killer?
5.   Will Celeste leave Perry?
6.   How will he react?
7.   Is Madeline going to get together with the theatre guy again?
8.   How will Ed react?
9.   Is that teenager going to auction off her virginity?
10.   Will Ziggy try to have sex with Chloe now that he learned about sex?
11.   Will Nathan and Ed fight?
12.    Who won the lip sync competition? (Or did it get cut short due to the murder?)
13.   Was Renada faking her make up with Jane?

Yeah, it was pretty convenient that the urethra breaking happened on the night of the play so that delayed Jane’s meeting Perry.

I'm bracing for disappointment
Title: Re: the big little lies thread
Post by: MakeItRain on March 28, 2017, 12:36:26 PM
That episode was completely unnecessary.

I don't know if Perry is Saxon or not but I'm going to stick with Jane killing him when she sees Perry abusing Celeste. After I talk this out, yeah Perry is Saxon. The murder scene will be Jane walking up to see the abuse, then we'll see that flashback scene they've showed the last five episodes, then Jane will cap Perry.

The only mysteries I have are who is hurting Anabella and whether Ed will find out about Madeline's tryst.  Theatre guys wife killing Madeline is my fall back murder theory.
Title: Re: the big little lies thread
Post by: Institutional Control on March 28, 2017, 12:38:49 PM
I'm already disappointed. Unless next week's finale is 3 hours long they are saving too much for a big finale that can't be as great as the buildup.

They want you to believe it's Perry. That's why it's probably not Perry.  It will probably be something dumb and completely out of left field.  I almost don't want to watch.

monkey see monkey do. also could explain why what's her name doesn't seem to be mad at jane anymore. maybe anabella told her it was the twins.
Title: Re: the big little lies thread

Whether or not Perry is the rapist, the twins still see him abusing Celeste and are modeling their behaviour toward Amabella after him.

Yes, and apparently it has closely mirrored the series. I've been told the only difference are the sex scenes between Celeste and Perry aren't as graphic in the book. Also the Saarsgard guy doesn't look like a Perry.

ending for me was terrible.  what crime was committed?  you have all the most important people in town killing a wife beater and these cops actually think he'd get a DA to take a swing a charging any of them?  just awful way to fizzle out not only the episode, but also the series.

I think it tied it all up in a nice bow. I loved the interview teasers throughout. I could have done without the detective commentary and just some silent shots of the women being interviewed. But meh. I think it was a nice bow to tie it all up.

It was a half windsor when the series deserved a proper bow tie or at least a full windsor.

I agree that I didn't understand the cover up. He was kicking the crap out of a couple of women and another woman pushed him away and he happened to go down a flight of stairs.  Why not just tell the cops that?

I read that in the book, Bonnie is a victim of domestic violence and confronts Perry a bit more before the shove.  Makes it more of an intentional act and less of a defense act, thus the cover up.  Show doesn't really convey that at all.

Did Alexander Skarsgard play the rapist in the flashback scenes?

No, it doesn't really look like him, but it's really dark and like 7 years in the past

If it was someone else that is one acting credit to leave off the resume.

I've always wondered if playing the role of a child molester or rapist in a show/movie pays a little bit better than normal.

I hope to do a binge on the season again soon.  It was a good first watch, but a friend told me that I might catch some signs along the way on the second watch.

So I totally missed the fact that Perry's penis was out in the open right before it got hit in the first watch because I was so focused on him grabbing Celeste. (I read about it later.) So it was good that I got to rewatch that last night.

I have not heard that. Still need to rewatch 6/7

I'm seen episodes 1-3 twice now and 4-7 3 times. Love this show a lot. Also love Jane.

Yeah I knew his dick was out and I saw it, but it took the third watch for me to realize that she hit his erection with the racket.

Pretty sure it was a prosthetic. Nobody is going to let their dick get hit by a tennis racket.

Wait what? He didn't actually take a forehand to his member?

Well this changes everything.

Forehand was the wrong word.

Forehand to the foreskin would have worked. Should have went with that.
