I'd definitely recommend Breaking Bad and True Detective! They are both amazing!
I can't judge True Detective yet as I haven't seen it, but of the others those two are by far the best on your list IMO. Both are several seasons long and will take a while to get through, though.Breaking Bad
The Wire
A Million Ways to Die in The West-8/10
I'm glad you guys enjoy your movies, but I think we are getting a tad heavy on handing out 8's, 9's and 10's.
Robocop (2104)
I'm a hardcore fan of the original. Hated and despised the idea of the remake and felt insulted with the design of the suit. Watched the movie with low expectations and after half and hour or so quickly realized that it's doing it's own thing rather than trying to outdo or erase the original. So all in all, I can't believe I'm saying this, it's a GOOD movie.
7/10.

This guy gets it!
Soooooo why exactly it's a good movie, beside that "it's different" bit?

Yeah, I feel bad for spitting on the reboot because I hold the original so dear to me. Fact of the matter is, the reboot is the best thing to come out out of the Robocop name since the original spawned God awful sequels, cartoons, TV series, and even some crappy comics. I don't know how, but the reboot worked.
So yeah, I guess I have to eat crow on what I've said on the Robo boards.
It quickly deals with the fact that Murphy is a man trapped in a machine first, rather than a machine discovering he's a man like in the original. That different approach completely allowed me to let of go of any preconceptions and allow the plot to branch off.
Murphy wakes up as a man in this, while OCP desperately tries to make him a robot. I never knew that approach could ever work until now.
