lol some youtube copyright troll company called "entura international" that i'm pretty sure has absolutely nothing to do with The Expanse, just got one of the most viewed (and one of my favorite :argh:) expanse videos on youtube taken down (the battle of Thoth station). It had been up for a year and had almost 300k views and had tons of recent comments with new fans saying they just found the show and that the battle was awesome and whatnot. Seemed like a good thing for getting random youtube nerds interested in the show

great timing assholes

I was trying to show someone this last night! gently caress everything.

Amazon Studios is in talks to revive one of CEO Jeff Bezos' favorite properties.

The retailer and streaming outlet is near a deal to revive space drama The Expanse for a fourth season just 10 days after Syfy canceled the series. Amazon Studios declined comment as sources note the deal is not closed.

No new information at all.

Squidship? I thought that was the remains of eros climbing out of venus, with a bunch of extra poo poo.

Edit: that is to say it looked like an asteroid

That is the squidship. I just said space jellyfish because that's what the Venus thing looks like to me.

Squid ship did basically look like Eros with tentacles grafted onto it. I thought it was cool how the protosoldier stopped coming after the Marine when "The Work" was finished and kind of looked up into the sky.

Did everyone die when the exploration ship was taken apart into a million pieces or are they stashed somewhere? I can't remember, but that would be kind of sad.

It's possible their dead-rear end bodies are being dissolved/crushed on Venus, but the protomolecule doesn't strike me as the sort to waste valuable raw material like that.

A little EQ, a touch of reverb, slap on some compression and there. That'll get your dickbutt jiggling.

They were hella dead, and after the ship was dismantled into it's component parts, their bodies probably were shortly after.

Consider Phlebas isn't too out there, probably the most adaptable one. It's a pretty standard adventure story at heart.
