Whiterose wanted to humble Price, and that’s why she blew up 71 buildings. Maybe Elliot contributed a little bit, but mostly Whiterose was just being mean. This interview even mentions that consolidating everything into a 1-building failsafe never made any sense: https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/live-feed/mr-robot-sta…

So are we in for a big surprise reveal this season?

The reason that we’re interested in Cyprus National Bank is now lost on me too, after this ep, and the roadtrip, and the hookup episode.

Rewatching season 2 and 3, I’m impressed by how good they are at conveying hopelessness. I don’t find them particularly miseryporny or depressing, but there’s a really effective sense of dread looming over the whole thing.

That’s definitely fair.

I’m pretty much with you.

In one of those excerpts they talk about Rorschach’s journal, and that the New Frontiersman published it, along with a conspiracy theory about Veidt creating the spacesquid as part of a falseflag and etc.

Yeah, this was pretty bad. A bunch of 8 year olds misheard something? Inconceivable!

I just think it’s weird that if you are a comic book character the lesson that you should take from Alexander the Great’s story is: get yourself a Robin (or even a Dan Dreiberg).

I’ve never been sure if Moore wants us to know that Veidt’s plan makes no sense?

The new season of the Handmaid’s Tale has taken an unexpected turn.

Ellis’ take on Doom is just so good, though. No slight to Spencer, but for me monarch/revolutionary/utopian is the definitive Doom.

The President Doom run was genuinely pretty great.

That is amazing.

It was much better than it had any right to be, even though I think that they even acknowledged that it was kindof a knockoff of Sleeper by Brubaker and Phillips.

I hate to try to make sense of this, but years ago (2009? Yikes) IDW did a Cobra comic where Chuckles went undercover and did very bad things.

I guess more accurately “Moonraker is actually the very best Bond late-era Fast & Furious movie.” 

Moonraker is actually the very best Bond movie.

Novak has written a few books which could be called anthologies?

It’s the ending of two separate Bond movies, and it happened in Knight Rider and who knows how many other places.
