ashpanash posted:I don't understand? I'm not necessarily defending the storytelling decision (that would depend on how it was executed) - I'm just saying that I think the story may well be leading us in this direction. I don't think you can argue that it's at least a direction the show could go, not that it absolutely will go that way. The show has already done Fight Club. It doesn't need to do it each season. Then next season Elliot will end up being his sister as well.

WampaLord posted:The institution theory could be true, by why would he still be seeing his old therapist instead of one at the institution? Screenshots that hint at something with his therapist: http://imgur.com/a/ga7WR furthering: Benson Cunningham posted:He has an established relationship with an existing psychologist. Common sense makes me think its reasonable for him to continue seeing her. That said, I have zero personal experience in how these things work. Even if I did though, TV! Plus the psychologist and her role in the story is established to us, the audience, so replacing her with a different character we don't know who serves the same purpose seems wasteful. Agreed.

bring back old gbs posted:We were saying the same thing about the dad being all in his head last year. Boy how dumb that twist would be, just like from that movie! I honestly groaned at the reveal of season 1 at first watch. But on rewatch and with the new season it really made up for it in the way that they are potentially going treat mental illness seriously and not as a gimmick (a la Fight Club).

sticklefifer posted:I don't know if I was just conscious of it because I know Jst0rm posts here or what, but I'm really noticing the sound mix so far this season. I was impressed by the scenes taking place in bars and public places, where the people on camera really don't seem like they're the only ones having conversations. I can distinctly hear snippets of other people talking over them and have to strain slightly to hear what the actors are saying, just like you really would in a public place. It is really good. I have a small surround setup and the Gideon bar scene felt like being right there next to them with people talking right behind me.

Varam posted:Uh, no, that's not what happened at all. Mr. Robot pushed him off the pier at the very end of episode 2, then Mr. Robot was revealed to be Elliot's imaginary dead father in episode 9, and finally in episode 10 Elliot looked himself up and found the youtube video of himself jumping off of the pier. The best hints I remember are in the episode when Mr Robot shows up at Allsafe then they go get an Appletini and you realize Elliot is just there by himself with the bartender.

Binary Logic posted:It's also the name of an opera about a woman who puts on a disguise. Don't know the significance of any of this yet.  From what I remember it's about a woman who goes undercover to rescue her husband from prison. While Angela is definitely in disguise (trying to fool herself) she's more out to get answers and hold those responsible for her and Elliot's family accountable. geeves fucked around with this message at 20:46 on Jul 23, 2016 |

Tenzarin posted:Queue raiders of the lost arc music. Problematic Pigeon posted:Do you mean the music when Elliot dons the mask? Cuz that's Neptune, the Mystic from Gustav Holst's The Planets. When the title card pops up, it transitions to Mars, the Bringer of War Which was really awesome. Definitely can hear who inspired John Williams and a plethora of other modern composers. Mars is the first track. Neptune is the last track at ~41:10 (the whole thing is worth a listen) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Isic2Z2e2xs

No.1 Special posted:So it was just straight up jail. Not even an asylum. Just Jail. But what for? Not killing Tyrell (but he may have done that - I don't think he did though) since everyone thinks he's on the run. And this pretty much rules out that he killed the guy in his garden (but Mr Robot could have ordered it)

Snak posted:How did nobody call prison? all the flimsy stuff in the institution theory make perfect sense in a prison. I didnt even call it mid-episode when they were visually referencing the poo poo out of American History X's rape scene. From mid-July - teeters between jail and asylum: LentThem posted:That scene (and sound effect) along with stuff like basketball in The Yard, the cafeteria he thinks is a diner, the strict routine that isn't really his routine, and the bed-making all had me convinced he's in a minimum-security prison. Gideon coming to get Elliot to admit he wasn't part of the hack makes it seem like everyone else knows Elliot was in on it, and probably related to him being in jail. If not that, then related to Tyrell missing.
