excellent point, I have actually been predicting that same thing, but didn't connect it to this, or anything else for that matter. I applaud your reasoning, no matter how wrong we mostly turn out to be.

i noticed that too, and almost forgot about it - I can't not think that it was supposed to be significant considering that the people that make the show have been writing Evil corp every time we have seen the name displayed somewhere all season in the first place, so there must have been direction to specifically

I know what you mean, I thought that too. what sucks the most about Vanilla Sky is that It could have been at least as good as the original if they hadn't used that awful ending which was like the worst case of a movie stopping itself so it could explain itself to the audience I had ever seen at that point. (other

oh yeah, I'm a huge geek for british television, and black mirror is amazing. I for some reason didn't think about the christmas special in relation to Mr. Robot until you said that, but … yeah, i see what you mean. It's crazy how many things esmail is referencing like a television version of Tarantino or something

oh yeah, of course were supposed to be a little confused about why she is there… I feel pretty confident that her presence and importance on the show is actually going to increase significantly next season, at least that's the way it seems to be heading.

i think it's still going to come into play/be explained at some point next season… even if the characters on the show forget about the gun, the show will never forget, and no show could resist the temptation to use something as provocative a GUN IN A POPCORN MACHINE. lol. Sorry, i'm in a weird, goofy mood right now…

I think it more likely than not that this is entirely the intention of the scene, I thought the same thing for a moment… But considering how strange and dreamlike the whole sequence was, and the fact that he had just made everyone vanish, seemed to me to indicate that there was more to it than that…

also, suggested by my wife - she believes this whole mind control angle much more than I do at the moment, but she thinks Tyrell is in custody of the dark army, who he and joanna have been working for from the beginning from a different angle but for the same goals. she thinks that after the scene that ended last

excellent points, I have theorized some similar things. There seems to be some strong allusions to mind control in the show, and I have wondered and I think even commented on a previous episode once before about that suspicion.

My wife pointed out how Price in this episode reminded her of Palpatine in Revenge of the Sith - and when she said that, I couldn't not see it - it totally feels like Angela is being seduced to the dark side, ala Anakin in star wars. Best part of all that is when she persists in asking him to explain why they would

i agree that he was being an asshole, and was clearly out of line, but to me it seemed like it was supposed to be that he was sort of representative of her conscience or the universe or something trying to plead with her to get out now before the "dark side" swallows you whole.

I agree that the scene between Joanna and Elliot seemed like it was practically screaming this (elliot and tyrell are the same person) And honestly, even though I had never bought that theory (even though I completely see why people think that) before, this scene just about convinced me they were going that direction.

I feel like it was definitely Tyrell in the video, those were Wellick's eyes I even compared the scene with a close up of Wellick face. I'm almost entirely certain it's him. But who knows, really…

I very rarely comment, but I had to after that. Personally, I thought the episode was brilliant even though it makes me very nervous for the future of the universe of the show due to a few things, mostly it was that when everyone disappeared in times square, I was terrified the show just literally became "Open Your

So… I was just rewatching episode four… and it gave me a really insane and almost certainly not true possibility. But here it goes: During the dream sequence, when Mr. Robot gives elliot the mask - He makes a very pointed comment about how the mask was "Made in China - just for you" or something like that. It has

Lars Von Trier's Dogville had me thinking the entire runtime that it was one of the worst things I had ever seen, that the only way to say it was to do this one thing. And then pretty much that exact thing happened, much to my surprise, and yeah, it pretty much transformed the film into an entirely different thing for

still more punk rock than anything green day has put out in … i dont know, a number of years that will make me feel old.

I've been a fan of Whedon for a long time - I loved both Cabin In The Woods and Dollhouse more than most seem to, it seems - but this was… I kept thinking that maybe Whedon wrote when he was in high school, and someone happened to find it and got it produced because his name was on it.

I agree with you. I liked his show and all, but I would agree that the show itself was not really "successful" persay. What i thought was successful was him in the role of a talk show host… which is kind of something. For instance, delivering a late night talk show monologue is, i guess, kind of hard to do. At least

also, since I see that someone mentioned Aiesha Tyler, and also Joel McHale (both of whom would be great), I feel like someone should mention forgotten Talk Soup host Jon Henson… I loved all the talk soup hosts, but even though it seems like no one remembers him (or maybe no one else liked him?) I always laughed the
