am I the only one who thought in the beginning that Logan dying was a ploy to somehow fuck over the kids again :sweat_smile::upside_down:
……nah it was just me & maybe I ended up caring for the bastard in the end (help)

You are definitely not alone in saying that, for like 5 minutes I thought it was Tom pulling some stupid shit to talk to Shiv, and that they were performing CPR on a mannequin or some crap.

Wouldn’t it be easier and safer to put the robots (replicas) on the space mission? Like duh? They do not need life support system, food, and physical activity. Would it be nicer if they actual humans stayed in their homes and spend their time with family?
Somehow, the pilot of story twisted to make us watch 80 minutes episode, almost as long as a movie. Just to tell us that we need to take care of our family and loved ones! The only explanation for this movie plot is that the astronauts were already in a long distance space mission and later on, they have decided to make the replicas for their families.

@masoudhaghi Beyond the handwaive that they're studying the effects of human life in space, I don't think it'd make more sense to have the replicas in space. Aaron Paul's character is shown having trouble with his grip in the opening scenes. You'd want those sort of problems to be happening in the lower stakes personal life on earth instead of on the high-stakes mission if you're in charge.
Should have been labeled 'loosely based on the books by Isaac Asimov'.... Absolutely butchered the books... Disgrace... Woke nonsense
On a positive note, it is beautifully made and the actors do an excellent job.

two leads are black because they are related. they are mother and daughter.

@keldian So fragile! You wouldn't last a day as a Black woman if this is what sets you off.
WTF?!? Is this a joke?! Are they trolling us?!
So, Mother gave birth to one of the giant serpents that once roamed the planet and went extinct? Why?? What purpose does that serve? Apart from a handful of people, there isn't anything for it to eat anyway, so it will just go extinct again. Is that what it is? The planet's defense system against invaders? Because if it wasn't the digital simulation of Campion (the Creator), who/what impregnated Mother after all?
And what about the prophecy? The very obvious reference to the Virgin Mary and Joseph? Or is it Eve and Adam now that we have a snake? And the revelation that the indigenous population was Neanderthals that devolved into the "creatures" made no sense.
I hope the creator of the series, Aaron Guzikowski, never gets to work writing scripts again.

@erebos Someone or something has some sort of plan with this particular serpent I would assume, since they made it so that Mother's blood/juice/whatever gave it some crazy powers, like flying for example. The question for next season is what/who manipulated Mother and why. I would not condemn this show yet.
Sigh. A crossover to the Arrowverse - I though we had all moved on from that years ago.
I'll admit I couldn't get to the end. The problem with these type of cross over stories is you have to be watching them in sequence. For those of us not in the US, it doesn't always work like that - companies here don't necessarily broadcast in the same way the US companies want us to watch them, which just makes these stories nonsensical.

@peteo lol. crossover hppened last year. These episodes are the best of all the series.
Maggie Gyllenhaal and James Franco carried this season. Hopefully season 2 will go more in depth with Candy and her directing. I think that is the more interesting storyline. Prostitute to porn director is one hell of a career path.
RIP Thunder Thighs

It wasn't awful, but, I think I must be the only person in the world who didn't think it was great. There were times when breaking out into song mid-conversation without some sort of elaborate set-change didn't make sense, The 2 leads weren't exactly talented singers or dancers -- no wow numbers. The sets improved by the time the final number rolled around, but the singing and dancing remained an afterthought.

@chaztv i respect your opinion and i think with this movie they were trying to bring an Original movie like no other ones that we are seeing right now, like "The Sound of Music" "Singin' in the Rain" kind of thing. so they weren't trying to make it like a concert or pop thing. so the voices doesn't matter, the only that matter is the message behind it! u gotta see the bigger picture to understand it. hope u get my idea, Thx!
