Hahaha the entire thing the season was building towards happened off-screen Guess that explains why I've read so many angry whiny comments about the finale

I'm digging the institution theory but if that is the case I hope he's out of there by ep 4 or so. While I love the focus on Elliot's mental state over the main hacking fsociety plot I do want to see him interacting with the rest of the cast and getting involved sooner rather than later.

To be fair calling it "trite" after literally just the premiere is a bit ridiculous. Also I don't agree at all. This definitely feels like a new era, and even the cinematography was throwing out new tricks. It feels like a troll post because trite is one of the least accurate words you could use to describe these two episodes.

I get most of the criticisms but I think a lot of them stem from the fact that it's the premiere and the show is catching us up with everyone etc. But the idea that they "already covered" Elliot's mental demons makes me think some people want this to be a different show than it is. Elliot's mental demons have been and always will be the primary focus of the show. I personally would describe this episode as 'confidently refined'. I'm really happy that they're choosing to not jump straight back into hacking stuff.

Bioalchemist posted:Does anybody know if Amazon Prime UK will upload the new episodes at midnight? In my experience it's usually between 6-8am, but I don't know specifically about Prime. Won't be midnight cause it won't have aired in the US by then.

I'm absolutely certain someone's already mentioned this but I'm still in the middle of the episode and have counted 4 uncensored fucks already Oh god manic 'focused' Elliot

Version I got was from Canada I think (Amazon Prime was loving up and not letting me watch it, piracy is bad everybody), and there were I believe seven uncensored fucks.

this episode was fantastic - again - but i think we can only have one more episode without some sort of big change in elliot's circumstances before i start to get pretty tired. although it definitely seems like things are progressing that way with the episode's ending, so that's cool anyway this is totally the best show on tv right now

# ¿ Jul 28, 2016 18:06 |

I was trying to remember if that was the first scene or not - so every episode this season so far has started with a flashback.

NmareBfly posted:I think everything Elliot's doing is 100% as shown and all the things like trays and background sounds are red herrings. I hope they specifically do not provide an answer as a big reveal about where he's been. He'll just move out at some point and continue life as normal, leaving viewers to speculate for eternity with no actual answer. I'd quite like this, actually.

precision posted:Since the show's already done "online child porn" and Elliott would likely not give a poo poo about drugs, I think Ray's online business will end up being contract killers - and it will turn out his site was used (possibly by Darlene) to hire the guy who killed Gideon. This is an interesting theory. I don't know if I believe it for the show, but I'd quite like it. That or the human trafficking idea.

Great ep. This doesn't really bother me because I'm not an uberdork but it did make me laugh that so much of the season has been about a Tor site and then when you finally get to see it they opened it in Firefox. How did they possibly make that mistake haha How'd this episode do for the institution theory?
|
# ¿ Aug 4, 2016 12:11 |

I didn't actually know that, but I'm pretty sure Tor doesn't just open with a "Welcome to Firefox!" page and have the Firefox icon, right? Also who do we think was behind the attack on the FBI?

Was the picture of the kidnapped woman totally blurred on the broadcast version? On Amazon Prime there were black bars over the eyes/boobs but that was it I think. edit: never mind I was wrong. black bar over the eyes was a blindfold and there's nothing on the breasts, so it's totally uncensored.

Whenever I read the reviews for this show I find critics are always taking it as a given that the Elliot scenes are the least interesting part of an episode, which is so far away from my perception it sorta makes my head spin.

They released a tie-in text adventure type of game where you find Darlene's burner phone and have to help her get a file from it back. It's fun. She insults you a lot.

Utopia wasn't that good, though, especially compared to this show and Black Mirror. Having nice widescreen cinematography is no substitute for decent script work.

This is the worst time ever to have Elliot take a week off. What the fuuuuuuuck Esmail do you actually hate us ok ep though but I can't get over why anyone would possibly leave the house and go home knowing they would almost definitely get picked up by the FBI or Dark Army.

The more I think about it the more I'm really not a fan of the fact Elliot's story so far this season is like.....two thirds of his season arc. I'm happy with what we've had with him, but a lot of it has been repeating itself somewhat, and I'm hoping getting into the final act of the season means actual progression, the one thing this season has sorely lacked (and this is coming from a huge, huge fan of slow character-based storytelling).

fuckin Lois never replied to my initial message to her, I guess it bugged out yeah you look at your big donut, rear end in a top hatSlipkPIe posted:There are folks that watch TV who miss details or don't understand scenes because they watch casually and aren't paying close attention. Then there are people who obsessively look into every detail and rigidly dissect and discuss them on the Internet. TV IV is the rare intersection of people who pour over every detail while still missing everything and understanding none of it The post they were quoting said "hm I think this" about something stated explicitly in the first episode. Admittedly he says as such, but there is an element of "how the gently caress did you not realise to begin with"?

Idia posted:She doesn't respond back but you should have gotten a tip from her. Check her messages again. Also ask Darlene for more info. Thanks for this, but it doesn't seem to help. Lois never even responded to the first message I sent her, and I don't have an HR contact to message. Googling shows me that you get it in the course of messaging her. I've checked any other contact and can't send anything to anyone else. Bummer
