Why is the Statue of Liberty making what is clearly just an awkward hand gesture and nothing more?

[–] glowing_hans@sopuli.xyz 11 points 6 months ago

the statue of liberty just sends love from its heart … right?

[–] bob_lemon@feddit.org 8 points 6 months ago

In this AU, the statue of liberty was a gift from Italy rather than France. It's a Roman salute.

First season was astounding, powerful, alarming, and interesting. Second season, it is obvious they fired the wriiter who was the showrunner and ended up making the entire second season forgettable.

I haven't watched any of it yet. Would you say that it's worth just watching the first series and forgetting the second, or does the second series wrap up some story lines ?

[–] Frozengyro@lemmy.world 13 points 6 months ago

The 4 seasons are worth watching. Most of it is actually really good, but it does get weird in the last season.

I'd say it is overall worth it. Goes from Fiction to Sci-Fi

[–] UraniumBlazer@lemm.ee 6 points 6 months ago

Okay, so here's the deal. This show should've had 5 seasons, not 4. Everything up till the middle point of season 4 is AMAZING. After that, they have really rushed it n made it quite illogical.

The ending is underwhelming. That being said, I would highly recommend u to watch it. The story's just really really good. Certain twists and payoffs are veeeery fascinating. Highly recommended!

I really enjoyed how they wrapped the show up, but some people didn't like the ending

[–] prole@lemmy.blahaj.zone 4 points 6 months ago (1 children)

It's based on a Philip K. Dick novel, but I didn't watch more than a few episodes so I can't really say how much it strays from the book.

Didn't realize Blade Runner/Androids Dream of Electric Sheep was based on fascism.

[–] DragonTypeWyvern@midwest.social 2 points 6 months ago

But they're a slave race that gets denied personhood despite being literally physically identical to biological humans by a mega corp that has destroyed the planet(s) (humanity has space colonies but it doesn't really come up) and has taken on the power of the state?

Move to the neutral zone

I didn't realize before that the show had a statue of Elon Musk.

[–] PyroNeurosis@lemmy.blahaj.zone 7 points 6 months ago (1 children)

See, what's striking me is the similarity berween the Tesla logo and the Reichsadler.

[–] MidsizedSedan@lemmy.world 7 points 6 months ago

Jo Jo Rabbit used to be a comedy

[–] Pregnenolone@lemmy.world 5 points 6 months ago (1 children)

I really wish this show and book were just fiction rather than sci-fi.

[–] DragonTypeWyvern@midwest.social 2 points 6 months ago

Yeah, it honestly didn't need it at all.

[–] NOT_RICK_SANCHEZ@lemmy.world 4 points 6 months ago

Buckle up for season 2!
