how the hell was jack in charge of anything, let alone a unit in the FBI?
>needs help with every single case
>even then doesn't take wills advice
>uses Scooby doo tier traps to try and catch the killer, most of which don't work
>loses his job and only gets it back because will did the dirty work and Hannibal surrendered
where do you think he is after the finale?

I asume he was catchin folks wayyy before Will got involved with the Shrike case and built up a shitload of goodwill.
Minus the Miriam-thing, of course. Cause Lass JUST-ed herself by trying to find the killer all alone.

Oh yeah, in the books Jack just sort of floats around Quantico until Clarice shows up.
I think he was sort of in and out of the hospital due to heart trouble.
I liked Jack, but he was mostly a plot device.

in the SOTL book doesnt it mention there are at least 30plus serial killers behind bars besides hannibal? i always had an idea for a jack crawford tv series before they did hannibal. it would be titled the manhunter and focus on the early days of jack crawford catching killers and possibly a young hannibal when he arrives in america

Its been a while since I read it, but I think I remember them comparing the numbers of psychopaths that actually got caught, vs the number that are potentially roaming free-range and it was pretty frightening.
I would definiately watch a younger Jack Crawford show, though. Im not sure about a younger Hannibal outside of Europe. I dunno man, the Hannibal Rising book/movies left a bad impression on me.
Were you guys as pissed as I was that Jack didnt get to kick Hannibal's ass fully, in Mizumono?
That knife fight was some bullshit.

A young Jack Crawford show would be great

I expected Jack to to at least knock Hannibal down. Laurence Fishburne looks like an old boxer. The fight was alright, but it could have been better. It bothered me more that Hannibal was treated like James Bond when he fought. I get that he's /fit/ and probably has much experience with martial arts, but sometimes that shit got out of hand. Hannibal should be more clever than he his physically daunting

> Hannibal should be more clever than he his physically daunting
See, thats what I liked when he fought Tobias. That fight wasnt all about him trying to physically overpower an opponent. It felt right.
The second curb-stomping Hannibal got in Florence felt better, because I felt like thats how things should have gone down in Baltimore.

The fight with Tobias was great. I wish we got to see more of Tobias
He was more of the facilitator or organizer than the actual detective. He put guys like Graham in the best position to succeed by hooking him up with different people.
He also did track down Hannibal a few times and fuck with the Italian police in Florence then sauntered up to Graham's house with an army ready to fuck shit up.

>didnt get to kick Hannibal's ass fully
he kicked his ass both times. Hannibal may be more /fit/ but jack is a bear and pounced on him. The only reason Hannibal won was because he did a last second dirty move and stabbed him. He was getting choked out like a bitch and this was after being body slammed. One V One jack would kick his ass. He did in Italy
Jack in unemployed now. The first time getting fired then hired was luck, but a second fuck up that big? Hes probably facing criminal charges
>>67876614
there was a good mix between martial arts and boxing together. Its really one of the best tv fights of all time. There are movies that aren't even this good

just look up john dougles and Robert ressler. they were the IRL FBI agents jack was based on and interviewed serial killers to try and find other serial killers
but as others said jack was more of a captain then a field agent. I do recall some parts of the book describing him as a "guru" or some shit so he was good at his job to some degree
How the fuck did he get a gun into Italy is what I want to know
and how did he get out with all those dirty Italian cops looking for him? One scene would have made all the difference fuller
>>67877589
Oh fuck, how did I miss the pepper-grinder? That was actually pretty funny.

>Douglas discovered the following:
>- Most serial killers take souvenirs from their victims and give them to the women in their lives as a sign of dominance and a way of being able to relive the experience.
>- Serial killers kill repeatedly with some emotional cycling or cooling-off period between crimes.
>- Most killers are inadequate types; as a result they have speech impediments.
Ya know, that actually puts a lot of stuff in perspective.
Pretty cool.
