Even Fincher in "House of Cards" is doing the SMS text graphic thing... I'm not sure if I can give him a pass on this one.

I'm not a fan of random graphics popping up out of the blue unless it's stylistically integrated throughout a film... but now Fincher goes and does it in his drama "House of Cards." Fincher is really testing my loyalty.

In the House

I rather enjoyed the 1st couple of episodes of Netflix's new series "House of Cards." I don't think it's nearly as sophisticated as an Aaron Sorkin politic-o-drama but it gets its point across. I'm always up for a good revenge plot, though I am a bit over the "power couple" type plots. We'll see how the rest plays out.
