Thread 213701938

According to Disney, this is a normal reaction for two ten years old walking by a dozen of dismembered bodies
No disgust, no fear, no trauma
Just "There is a bear lol"
If they let slip shit like that, show's ggonna suck.

It's called COMEDIC RELIEF dumbass!! It is deliberately to break the tension and intensity of the episode. Fuck you!!

>>213701938 (OP)
>No disgust, no fear, no trauma
you missed the part where it was specifically discussed that the kids were in robot bodies that no longer have hormones to create moods, thus their emotions are artificially simulated.

>>213701968
>comedic relief
it doesn't mean it can be completely contradictory with the story
>kids in robot bodies that no longer have hormones to create moods
yeah why not, but it should at least be adressed somehow, have a character say "I should be freaked out, but strangely I'm not", but no "There is a bear lol"

>>213702047
Anon did you actually take thats seriously? It was just a reference to hormone medication to cement the trans allegory

>>213702147
>take thats seriously
yes. it's an entire scene, not just an off-hand comment.

It’s a terrible show

>its an alien show
ok im in
>its about synthetics again
im out

>>213702205
best alien movies are about the synths

>>213701968
It's called bad writing troon

>>213701938 (OP)
the entire concept of children in adult synth bodies is stupid and will make the show bad

>>213701938 (OP)
Two eleven year old minds residing in synthetic bodies with simulated and controlled hormones and neurotransmitters. They actually can't panic from an adrenal surge.

>>213702147
I don't know why I come to this site anymore.

>>213702479
already responded to a similar comment, it should at least be explained openly, have a lign of dialog make it explicit.

>>213702678
>it should at least be explained openly
wtf are you talking about? it's an entire scene in episode 1 when bladerunnerguy and oldlady were observing wendy.
you want more screentime for that, be more explicit?
rip media literacy

>>213702752
and it also is specified that their feelings are simulated to be as close as possible as those they'd feel in their own bodies, as kids
did you fall asleep during the scene you're talking about?
rip 10seconds+ concentration spans

They aren't normal kids. That's the twist. They are just normal androids programmed to think they are kids.

So it's alien but for teens?

>>213702367
They wanted kids to ape Stranger Things, but now that shows spend 3 years between seasons, child actors aren't viable anymore.

>>213703048
it's something I'm anticipating
the alteration of the memories and the doubt synths will have about their pasts will probably make them paranoid at some point and the show is going to explore the blurry line between an android and a synth

>>213703140
Its already going there by pointing out they have no hormones and super computer brains. A robot body with a computer brain and no emotions...its an android with human memories, not a human.

>>213702851
>their feelings are simulated to be as close as possible as those they'd feel in their own bodies, as kids
said by literally nobody in the tv series, you bullshitting faggot.
they only asked wendy if she was happy before dropping an exposition on simulated emotions.
they also said that prodigy could increase the intensity of the simulation.
prodigy simulates their emotions, which means that they could also choose not to include or reduce the intensity of certain emotions.
to be fair, the other kids were terrified by the eye tentacle, so there's that inconsistency.

>>213703140
Could we say, they are becoming... Paranoid Androids?

>>213701938 (OP)
Did you miss the whole part at the beginning where they talk about how their emotional capabilities aren't really there anymore now that they're in robot bodies, and that the only thing that allows them to feel anything is hormones, and that the entire robot program is still in an early testing phase? The only one who seems to properly respond to the hormones is the redhead.

>>213701938 (OP)
That's explained. Maybe put your phone down the next time you watch it.

>>213702047
I guess you're just supposed to ignore all those other times when they showed genuine emotions in their robot bodies then

>>213701938 (OP)
Anon, this episode had a spaceship crash into a residential building and a good portion of the people in it didn't notice. It is indeed going to suck.

>>213704788
how do you know they're "genuine" emotions and not simulated, then?
that's the question in the future episode, if they're synths with human consciousness or synths who think they're human.

The show is super weird.

It feels like the creator had an idea for a show about AI/kids/robots and then had to shoehorn in the Alien bullshit for some reason.

>>213705246

Which is not good because the Alien part of the show is the only part that works.

>>213705246
Thats how halo felt too, like a writer couldnt get their show so they landed a franchise and put their show in it

>>213705246
The creator is a retard who thinks he can do both Alien and Blade Runner better than Ridley Scott whom he seems pretty dismissive towards despite copying him.

>>213705246
The Alien parts are the best parts so that would be really weird if it were so.

>>213705811
>The Alien parts
I bet you got some in your panties lol

>>213706333
Wanna see my facehugger?

>>213703547
>the other kids were terrified by the eye tentacle
Yes and none of them panicked and they acted rationally despite the terror they had just witnessed that would have sent kids their age running or caused them to freeze up completely.

>>213701938 (OP)
the costumed party is a clear reference to the ending of the Ancien regime so I presume they are going for the Alien creature(s) being an allegory for incel rage and resentment and their threat to the current order.

>>213701938 (OP)
those two are clearly both in their early 20s

>>213701938 (OP)
i watched ep 2 a second time, and i liked it less

Shit rehash just like the last movie was lines of dialogue from the first 2 films and retarded mistakes like the guy bashing an egg until acid fell on him KEK! Slop nigger shit disney will just keep buying golden age lightening in a bottle IP's and turn out bong limey paki black mirror esq nonsense that got tiring 10 years ago. It's ogre for now for us ( even though this commie debating forum has been dead since the hack turd worlder niggers who run this shit show will force people to wait for 15mins to post.... retarded kikes ) Give up on TV and read good books like Asimovs titles and Roadsode picnic, watch oldy goldy films and play games like Ion Fury, Doom extermination day free mod, Quasimorph, Fallout 1, 2 and New Vegas, and watch Sam Hydes good shit.
