cringe or kino?

>>212406382 (OP)

Kino. When he got dragged down that hole, the show reached a new level that was worthy of the name.

Very kino, unique vibes. Wish it had stayed more of a ghost story than a generic monster at the end though.

>>212406382 (OP)
Crano

Why didn't they just listen to Crozier?

>>212406382 (OP)
>villain is an evil faggot
>show is kino
other examples of this? feels rarer than it should be

>>212406434
The scene with the diver in episode one was amazing. The tension and completely surreal environment with the monster hardly visible in the distance.
>like a dream, sir
Pure kino.

>>212406420
Pushed*

>>212406662
Wasnt visible at all

>>212406693
You could see the outlines that there was something there, monsters are usually best when you can't really see what they look like because your imagination does the rest. Once we got to see tuunbaq in full frame it just looked stupid.

Monster was shit snow nigger shit was shit

Great
One of my favourite television shows even though I didn't like the monster stuff
Loved the atmosphere, loved the characters and loved the drama
Man I fucking love the Terror
I want to build a scale model of it one day

>>212406382 (OP)
Ciaran Hinds is usually a very good indicator of kino

Unpopular opinion but season 2 had a decent monster, but it just couldn't lift up a shit premise
>le true horror is actually racism
at least the set design was cool

>>212406752
S2 was just wasted potential. If they'd have just set it in a japanese environment it would have been so much better because japanese ghosts and yokai etc are pretty freaky. The whole internment camp plot ruined it.

>>212406747
>stuck in the ice for three years eating british cooking
i hope explorer service blokes were paid well

>>212406818
What they're eating actually looks quite good compared to some of the "food" people eat nowadays in modern Britain

>>212406382 (OP)
kino when they're on the ships and cringe when they leave.

>>212406886

>>212406788
Just a new adaptation of yokai stories would be good enough

>>212406950
I NEED my vertebrae to be crushed between those thighs

Both. Everything supernatural in the how is cringe. The rest is Kino of the highest order.
Season 2 is shit. There's like 2 good episodes when the main character goes to war. The rest is really bad drama and the supernatural aspect is even more ridiculous than in season 1. It's very cliché/asian ghost shit. Good actors, bad script. It's True Detective: Night Country-tier bad.

>>212406382 (OP)
Kino of the highest order

>character is named Mr. Good Sir.
>he is a good gentleman of the highest quality

Why did Caesar get on a boat?

>>212406382 (OP)
2025 and it remains the only show (The Terror season 1) where I feel completely transported to that time setting and inside the boat with my fellow shipmates. No joke. The atmosphere is so palpable and believable, I feel like I’m in a Time Machine observing an actual point in history, with actual people. No show or movie has come close. Basically the show accomplishes what books induce. The book remains the most immersive medium there is. The Terror came close. Too close if you ask me.

>great show but I didn't like the monster stuff
Is there a clearer indicator of low IQ?

have you watched picrel?

>>212408876
Great show minus the last episode

>>212406382 (OP)
it could have been kino with man vs nature, man vs man, and man vs self. but it turned into white man bad and every one is gay

alright you two did i miss something or not, do i have to pull out my blu-ray copy later today to double watch this one part?
what he sees or thinks he sees is the body of the young man orren who falls from the rigging at the start of the show and hits the railing before falling into the water
IIRC collins wanted to jump in and save him but he was ordered not too and felt guilty that he didn't do more to save him
if you say there is a monster then fuck did i miss something????

>>212406420
the bluray or whatever is actually different from the original in that sequence
the original had a shot of the open ocean which is missing from the bluray
thought that was weird and preferred the original version

>>212409023
Well yes, he sees the guy who drowned but that's just his own imagination from the guilt of not being able to save him, there's no way he would actually be there. I wished they kept it more to everyone losing their minds from mercury poisoning and hallucinations instead of demon bear.

>>212409147
*****PROOF******
the ocean shot is missing from the bluray release

>>212409147
interesting, apparently the first episode has some different conversations too - i watched the AMC version first but then bought the blu-ray
i can't seem to find much more about any differences though, is there a list of the changes beyond that???

>>212409276
what i guess i was trying to get at is anon said monster but it's not the monster unless one were to believe the monster could make people see things or it was visible lurking in one of the frames elsewhere
i get that it's likely collins and his mind going overdrive but i didn't see a monster when anon said monster

>>212409147
Yeah in the first release some scenes were a lot more ambiguous and mysterious. Instead of being a human shape it was more like a lovecraftian silhouette

>>212409023
ok ok, I'll watch this show now

>>212409147
>>212409428
>>212409561
weird larp

>>212409504
I get what you're trying to say, my interpretation is just that he got a glimpse of the monster in poor visibility and his fear filled in the blanks and made him spiral into guilt to see the man he failed to save instead. So it's not the monster influencing his mind, it's all him

>>212409023
If he dropped off that chair hed sink like lead and theres nothing he could do abt it
Probably land 200ish meters down still alive and kicking

>>212409653
idk what you mean anon - i watched it from amc first - really through plex because my friend has one of those servers with sonar hooked up where you can just request stuff and it snags it from the internet - and i liked it so much i bought the blu-ray on amazon a while back

>>212406382 (OP)
I hated the way the exterior sets looked, the look of the monster and the ending felt messy.
Other than that it felt genuine and gripping, especially the first half.
It feels like the people involved were genuinely oblivious to the current trends in films and TV and it's a good thing.

Cold makes the best kinos

>>212406382 (OP)
Good, but the poisoning subplot is...idk I don't like that sort of shit. Like Far Cry and your guy has malaria. Purge the f unclean you heathens.

>>212410797
The poisoning plot is based in reality though. They could have survived for a few years in the ice pack if it wasn't for contaminated tins that gave them mercury poisoning and made them go insane.

>>212410900
Those things are so tragic. "Small" problems that are catastrophic. Yet seemingly so easy to fix when you have after the fact knowledge. Like scurvy from lack of vitamin c.

>>212410797
one of the worst takes i've ever seen about this show

>>212410900
Yeah, Im not allowed to not like it as its core, making me not like it even more. Still worth a watch. Good performances.

>>212411005
Yeah we used to have lead in our soldering iron when i worked in electronics assembly because it made it more fluid and seal better but then they realized that inhaling and touching lead could give us lead poisoning or cancer.

>>212406382 (OP)
obvious kino

>>212406981
kek

>>212411060
It's not my fault you're too retarded to understand how heavy metal poisoning will fuck you up badly

>>212406382 (OP)
kin, the book is also even more kino

>>212406719
>monsters are usually best when you can't really see what they look like because your imagination does the rest.
Only a retard would watch a movie that was too cheap to include a representation of the monster and think 'I imagine it haaaaad tentacles on its back and a big bird beak! And big forepaws ending in hooves!' Nobody does that.

>>212411399
Name one (1) case where seeing a cheap cgi monster is more scary than a mysterious creature you don't know what it looks like

>>212406382 (OP)
Kino with a dash of cringe.

>>212411060
Sorry bud, but that's one of the primary dangers of expeditions:
>Having steady supply of food and clean water
>Fighting off hostile natives and animals
>Avoiding viruses, disease, and general illness
The longer it is, the worst it can get. And being in remote, desert-like areas exacerbates things further. Canning will remedy the food issue, but not if it inadvertently introduces toxic chemicals, which has happened repeatedly throughout history. I am a fan of it since it keeps realism in the story rather than making everything perfect and people have to act dumb for things to go wrong. Competent people can be driven mad for reasons unknown to them, and a steadily worsening supply situation.

>>212406382 (OP)
The overall incompetence by the characters is really bad, it is a show written by a woman. It has really good atmosphere and amazing acting but thats it. It betrays man as stupid and weak. Pure demoralization garbage, besides the villian being a homosexual, thats accurate.

>>212411712
It's not though. If you've ever been in a harsh environment barely surviving your mental state will deteriorate quicker than you think and people will make incredibly stupid decisions. No woman could ever write that because they'd probably die from low blood sugar after 2 days

>>212411327
i really wish more of the book stuff made it into the show even though they did a pretty decent job at including some of it - the chapter where fitzjames, goodsir and doeux chase the monster through the smoke filled ship as it rips apart the crew seemed so freaky reading it
then them finding the two guys down by the boiler with one of them stuffed into it
and crozier returning to the ship after everyone is dead way later on and having that freaky feeling the dead guy in his bed was going to go zombie mode and grab him when he's going through his captain's quarters
wish more of that freaky mental stuff was in the show
sir john's last moments under the ice with the monster

Are we brothers, Francis? Are we?

>>212412019
I would like that very much. Best scene in the series.

>>212406382 (OP)
It's kino any time the down syndrome bear isn't on screen.

Why did Fitzjames stab the captain? That seemed ungentlemanly

>>212410797
You can reliably count on 40kfags to have absolutely terrible taste

>>212412375
Millions of dollars and the best the VFX department could come up with was Ed Harris.

>>212408876
I can't find a torrent for it

>>212411327
The book was garbage. The show surpassed it in every way. The Terror and Altered Carbon are the only shows I've ever seen do the story better than the books they're based off of.

TV Shows that did it better than the books they're based on.

Colin Farrell was legit scary in this.

Fitzjames, Goodsir, Mr. Blanky, so many Kino characters

thanks I guess.

>>212413644

It works fine, no need to assume the worst.

>>212406382 (OP)
Kino except for the last two episodes which were kinda shit and a let down.

>>212413644
just use the search engine built into qbittorrent

>>212408876
I CANT UNDERSTAND ANYONE IN THIS!!!

>>212413808
I wasn't updated to the version with the search functionality, holy shit this is great.

The only good thing produced in the past 10 years

My friend told me only one character had a good end and that was being eaten. How the f does that work?

I tried to like it, but it is bad and also gay

>waltuh...

>>212406382 (OP)
stop seeking group validation.
watch it for yourself. If you like it, good for you, if you don't, shut the fuck up and keep it to yourself because it was absolute fucking kino and if I ever meet you in person I'll fucking batter you, you pathetic moany incel.
