THEY PROMISED ME ZOMBIES AND ALL I HAVE NOW IS DEPRESSION
What a beautiful episode, I don't remember an episode like this for years, very well done, just perfect.
Which version do you prefer? The Game or the Show? I will have to go with the show, its more happy, kinda.
The way they picked an episode title that would make absolutely no one suspect anything…
I feel like an extra 25 or 30 minutes would have been better to draw out the drama a little more. Still, pretty good and I can't wait for season 2!
The clicker scene was masterfully translated from video game to live action, the tension was insane! Incredible episode.
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)
It's more a movie than an episode due to its length and it's just awesome. I loved this episode and the whole show in general.
Black Mirror has this power, that relies in every detail, of showing off the raw human nature: its photography, the concept behind the plots, the actors that are very good to let us feel the obsession of the characters, even the soundtrack... everything take a huge part to the whole experience that the writers want us to feel.
Very good job!
Hold up… this episode was fantastic! Can anyone deny this season is better than the first?
I broke down when his dad finally hugged him, shedding his own shame from the abuse in his past.
My feelings about Serena are so drastically contradictory. On the one hand, I love her. She's a strong, smart, confident woman and I cheer when she stands up for herself. On the other hand, she's helping promote these horrible ideals and standards that belittle women and keep them oppressed (herself included) Girl, what are you doing?
Also, people do such horrible, monstrous things in the name of God and religion. And not only in fiction, but in reality too. Such savages. And such hypocrites. Making up any sort of excuses to justify all their wrongdoings and suit their own needs and interests.
But I loved that Canada is depicted as the place where people are rational and kind, in opposition to the crazies that have control of the US. I wonder if the writers did that on purpose or if it's like that in the book . Maybe the author of the book had some kind of premonition LOL
What was the moral of this story? That there is no moral in Hollywood? Also the grown-ups are even worse than the kids. Seriously. Eli Roth goes from being so annoyed with their performances to being super enthusiastic. Like wtf?! Joslyn thrusting all over Eli Roth was a cringe fest. Why was this drama with Joslyn's ex introduced at all? And then she says Tedros is the love of her life? What in the actual hell? Why did we all watch this? Why was this made? This is not serious.
Another nice episode.
I really liked the idea of it (getting blackmailed and not knowing what your blackmailer actually wants) and the plot twist at the end was great! I honestly didn't expect that. By now I'm used to paying attention and I usually have a lot of theories and try to find subtle clues, but somehow I didn't see that one coming. I was so naive and thought the main character was really just masturbating. I just started to get skeptical when he even agreed to rob a bank, but I still couldn't figure out what's exactly going on.
By the way, if you rewatch the beginning you might notice the scene with the little girl which seems creepy in retrospect. But at that point I really thought it was to show that he's just a nice young guy.
Well done. Another plot twist I haven't seen coming like that. And of course the acting was incredible again :)
Man I feel bad for Ruby she deserves better than Otis. Also, the Adam scene where he was smiling on a horse. YES!!!! Otis and Aimee are such a likable duo that I also wished they used more in the previous seasons.
I did NOT expect to get emotional watching this show. But here we are lol. It was all actually really sweet.
Also, kudos to James Marsden for signing up for something like this. If I wasn’t already a fan…
"I'm gonna do something for my uncle"
The most endearing moment of the entire series may when Avon agrees to pay for Cutty's boxing equipment. An insignificant but very sincere moment. It also highlights the underlying difference between Barksdale and Bell: Avon is putting money back into the community, Stringer is only focused on getting it out. Not that Avon's motives are completely altruistic but maybe he was the better dude.
When I was a little girl my mother used to dress me up like a little doll. And, I was always a little doll, waiting for someone to play with me. You know, when you’re empty inside, and you have no direction you’ll end up in some crazy places, right? But you’ll still be lost.
David Fincher found retired in his home.
Legitimately A-tier Black Mirror - it's been a while. Maybe even top 5 episodes for me. It has the feeling of the first two seasons, British pseudo-cynicism and the darkest modern TV has to offer, while also being something the show has never attempted before.
It felt like Charlie Brooker wrote this one from a dark place, especially with that digustingly evil ending.
FOR YOUR FILM,
MOM
So glad this is back and that we didn't have to wait 2+ years for it, like most shows now, miss this chaotic blessing of a show
Loved Marwa being all kissy with Guillermo, after the show just established she was wished by Nandor to like everything he likes.
WTF??? I'm obviously not anywhere near the end yet and have zero knowledge of this case before this series, so I have no idea how it turned out -- but regardless of whether Steven Avery actually did murder this woman or not, I hope they fired EVERYONE in the Manitowoc County Sheriff's Department and cancelled out their pensions, and that this Len Kachinsky joker was disbarred. Wow. This is beyond a comedy of errors, because so much of this was willful and deliberate and done with malice. Ughhh it's sickening.
'I Am The One Who Knocks'
Rooting for Mai because all the other players seemingly forgot how Ashley did Trey dirty in the glass bridge.
“I wanna make music that lasts longer than my life.” meanwhile, it's just a weird moaning version of her already dumb pop song.
The dialogue is quite immature at times.
I think a huge problem with this show is that The Weeknd has no sex appeal and can’t sell the darkness that this character needs. He is also not a super convincing actor or character so it takes you out of the scene. I burst into laughter when Tedros started his dirty talk, it was that bad.
Honestly, I think Ruby deserves someone better than Otis. She deserves someone who loves her as much as she loves them!
"Swear to me, swear to me that everything you said about the fireflies is true"
"I swear"
...
"Okay"
Ahhhh
This is a way stronger season than S01. I seriously thought Tanya was a goner for a minute, I'm glad she is not. And how tables have turned for Harper and Ethan. I have a soft spot of watching Aubrey Plaza getting a sweet revenge, so let's go for the final!
This is the best season so far. It was bloody intense (I'm not saying the other ones were not) They obviously gave women a big role, at the plot and to the actresses. I can't say it's a surprise that Claire leaves Frank, to be honest, I really liked their relationship since Chapter 1. They seems to complete each other for many episodes. But it also looks like a flat line, no emotions, just interests of both parts to gain power. This season showed it perfectly, and Frank said it to Claire in a ruthless way. -I must say, Frank Underwood is an awful character, but somehow I like him. It's different and mean. So is Claire, she's classy, strong and independent, that's why she took her decision and I hope she keeps it. I guess we will see how the Underwood ship sinks next season... Or maybe not?
