Nah, she's gonna be on TV.
Nah, she's gonna be on TV.
As a lapsed anime fan, I saw it twice.
Eh, I'd be pretty happy if Vulture offed Pete in Homecoming, and we finally get a Miles Morales film. (Yes, I know about the cartoon film, I want my live action main film to be Miles)
Eh, I'd prefer characters retire/die, so a new generation of heroes steps up. I'm not interested in decades of the same group of characters. I want natural change.
It is more fun than High Rise.
I thought we'd all agreed that the ones divisible by 5 were the woooorst, and that addendum existed long before Nemesis came along to make it concrete.
It was pretty amazing to have her in this situation. She's always such a cool character, but she never personally is mixed up in such violence. It's was great seeing her outside her usual element.
Even if the core of a nuke was dangerous (which others posts have made clear is not the case), the setting makes it safe. For the Belters to even exist, radiation shielding is cheap and plentiful, with advanced medicine able to heal whatever severe radiation exposure that accidentally occurs. Otherwise the Belt would…
Since they gave Fred the protomolecule, I'm betting they'll be welcomed back to Tycho.
It's actually genius, as the assholes will come out now, we can block them all, and then when the episode reviews start, we can comment in peace.
I have no doubt we'll see protoMiller next season with protoJulie. As soon as the ship was exploded, it was clear that there is intelligence on Venus guiding the protomolecule.
It can be two things. She's changed from blind nationalist loyalty to more sensible loyalty to a good leader who will help her in turn.
I wonder if we're seeing Venus become a fourth player…
The opening sequence of this show is one of my favorites ever. But they only trot it out a few times a season!
"And because she's old."
I appreciated that we got to see Bobbie go full Terminator at the end. Those suits really are something.
Early in the episode, I had resigned myself to accept that Holden was gonna die. So it was a pleasant surprise to see the crew save him. But somehow the threat of the protohuman and the threat on Avasarala didn't make me feel like there was real danger. Somehow it was, as the review says, really anticlimactic.
Damn, I have to wait a week and a half before I can watch.

Some of that is due to the mainstreaming of geek culture. In the era of classic MST3K, no way would there be a fantasy epic like Game of Thrones that would be so popular. So geeky references in ye olde days would be more esoteric than now, even though both are aimed at the same culture.
