Mars looks pretty dull imo. Glad the BDBMA stuff seems to be over. (Bobbie Draper Black Market Adventure) Also the blindness and toxin slug storylines are right out of a lovely mid-season episode of star trek. But other than that I loved the season.

I recently saw the pilot episode and the Belter that was being tortured by hanging on those hooks was accused of smuggling contraband stealth technology. It goes way back. Though I forget if he was working for Protogen.

Great potential but I thought at least half the episodes sucked. Like the one where Mal prepares for a sword duel. I suppose it's a better track record than traditional scifi shows like Star Trek where the first 30 episodes suck.

Open Source Idiom posted:Firefly's a good, solid show. It's funny, and the characters are strong, vibrant figures with likeable personalities, set in a universe that was relatively unique at the time of airing. Everyone speaks bungled chinese and yet there are no asian characters in the show. gently caress Whedon.

Horizon Burning posted:BSG was a fine product of its time, but Goons have to act as if they never ever liked it lmao I loved the show but can't deny it has serious problems even back then. At least early on I thought a lot of the acting was terrible. Like Boomer. And the constant re-use of CGI was pathetic on day one. I also really liked the music in the first couple seasons and then Bear mcreary got obsessed with middle eastern guitar for some reason and that's all we would hear for like 2 years. There's amazing episodes like Downloaded that don't make any sense when you think about it in retrospect. Mu Zeta fucked around with this message at 23:59 on Dec 29, 2019 |

Horizon Burning posted:lmao 'they re-used cgi, frauds!' oh goons Ok I guess re-using the same cgi over and over is a good thing and the creators had no problem doing it? Also I think the hoodies in this season look kind of dumb but I also want one. They look warm.

I was looking for another emotional high like the Belters sacrificing themselves to save 50 in season 2 but nothing came close. And yeah I also found most of the Mars stuff boring. Still a good season of course, maybe more consistently good than season 1. I also liked "I am that guy" slightly more than the cool Amos stuff this season.

I appreciated that Ashford's accent was so different because it reflected the vast and varied lives of the belters. Most of the other actors all sound vaguely the same except for Naomi, Miller, and Prax.

I wonder if wearing face masks in daily life is going to be here to stay if there's no vaccine for covid. Maybe we'll start communicating with our hands like the Belters.

When I look on a web browser they actually have separate entries for the HD version and 4k version. It's like they are categorized as different shows. The Prime UI is so hosed.

Milkfred E. Moore posted:The authoritarian Martian society is built on a dream and plan to terraform Mars. The gates have rendered that dream a bit of a joke and the plan pointless. Why spend generations making Mars habitable when there's dozens of habitable worlds out there? I think the angst Martian society has fallen into is fitting for such an event. The best and brightest of Mars are heading off to get first dibs on new worlds instead of being cogs in some big plan. Martian society as they know it is basically dead. I thought the younger generations didn't care about the dream of Mars and were fine just living their lives. That martian chaplain guy was bitching about how Bobbie's whole group don't know the meaning of sacrifice. The Martian ambassador guy that was poisoned by Errinwright also said the same thing.

One of the problems of the show is that life inside a Martian dome looks pretty good. Yeah it's an endless series of hallways and has the imagination of a giant mall in a flyover state, but it looks a hell of a lot better than the earth slums or belter drug dens.

Johnny Truant posted:Bobbie was within arms reach of the Martian, I'd put my money on Bobbie in that situation. Yeah I just rewatched it and found out Holden had an assault rifle pointed at them too. If she tried to shoot Bobbie then she would have been wasted by Holden so those Martians were cornered.

I can't remember anything about season 4 For me the highlights of the show are always episodes 1x4, 1x8, and then all of seasons 2 and 3 are a blur of awesome building tension. Season 4 just seems to drone on. Maybe it's because I binged it.

Hollywood forgave Woody Allen, Roman Polanski, and Mel Gibson and those are real bad dudes that got standing ovations. The only reason Harvey Weinstein got hosed was because everyone already hated him. Season 6 has to be like two years away. I can see it blowing over by then.

Then it's annoying that they kept trotting out Neil Degrasse Tyson and Bill Nye and Kip Thorne all over the interview circuits pimping the movie. Nope, it all comes down to Anne Hathaway crying for her boyfriend.
