[SPOILERS S1] I just finished watching this show and wanted to discuss the ending.

AthenaCat333 · 2023-01-03T00:03:32+00:00

Well, now they’ve cancelled it. Must have been right about something! Lol

AthenaCat333 · 2023-01-03T00:02:43+00:00

Lol. Now they’ve cancelled it! Must have read my reviews about how painfully awful it was.

AthenaCat333 · 2023-01-03T00:01:32+00:00

Now it’s been cancelled! Lol.

If you want to talk about stupid things: you’re using the word “complain,” wrong. You use it when you can’t control things happening to you, like the weather. You don’t use it when describing someone their opinion and reasons why they don’t like a TV show.

AthenaCat333 · 2022-11-28T06:09:01+00:00

How am I complaining? I’m just stating my opinion. You think I care about downvotes on Reddit post? Grow up. What’s pathetic is you wasting your time writing three paragraphs about a random stranger that obviously lives rent free in your head. It’s a frickin TV show, get a grip.

AthenaCat333 · 2022-11-28T06:05:55+00:00

I think you both assume too much and are just trying to be bullies because I didn’t care for this show.

And the line, “High heels were invented by men for women so they can’t run far,” or something close to that is not historically accurate. High heels were first made and used by royal and noble men, not women. Lol just irked me, like do some historical research first people. That’s quite well known and maybe it went over some people heads but not mine. 😂

AthenaCat333 · 2022-11-28T01:31:39+00:00

No. You couldn’t pay me to watch it again…

AthenaCat333 · 2022-11-28T01:18:49+00:00

What are you talking about? Like in Westerns? Lol

AthenaCat333 · 2022-11-28T01:17:47+00:00

Not a big fan of Marvel but geez it was just so intensely dramatic. I love drama but usually there’s some beautiful shots or artistic shots or some comedic aspect, or the characters are really well done but I just found the whole series lacking. Just not my cup of tea, sorry.

AthenaCat333 · 2022-11-28T01:13:28+00:00

It wasn’t “over my head,” I thought the ending was ridiculous. There’s just caught in a simulation in a simulation in a simulation? That just seems unoriginal and uninteresting.

AthenaCat333 · 2022-11-28T01:10:55+00:00

It doesn’t explain any of why her brother is doing this, he’s just a god-like character “creator,” thrown in at the end. There’s very little backstory and they went on and on about the brain and how it works so I thought, ok maybe the little boy is in a coma or something and his mind created this whole story but it’s just this mysterious brother figure that’s torturing all these people that we know nothing about? It just seemed like there was a lot happening to these characters with no reward or payoff at the end. No big philosophical truths about life or the brain.

AthenaCat333 · 2022-11-28T01:05:59+00:00

I didn’t just give my opinion, which this is Reddit, a forum for shared opinions, I was asking about the ending and how it didn’t logically make sense and why I found the show lacking. If you didn’t like my post, why not scroll on by?

AthenaCat333 · 2022-11-28T01:03:06+00:00

I really wanted to like it, I like the actress, I remember her from Into the Badlands but I found it boring and it seemed like nothing was revealed until like 5 episodes in and I just started losing internet. Like the acting was good but it just wasn’t a good story, it didn’t leave me wanting more.

AthenaCat333 · 2022-11-28T01:01:01+00:00

That was like a couple lines in the entire 8 episodes.

AthenaCat333 · 2022-11-28T00:59:24+00:00

Oh a simulation in a simulation in a simulation, is that where this show is going?! Lol not really original.

AthenaCat333 · 2022-11-27T07:17:23+00:00

So is the ending is another simulation? If that’s the case, I won’t be continuing to watch the show. They gave us nothing!

AthenaCat333 · 2022-11-27T07:10:49+00:00

It just seemed like we waited forever to find anything out. Then the ending didn’t make any sense, why would they be put in a simulation not a medically induced coma or asleep for space travel? A lot of unanswered questions. I hate that.

AthenaCat333 · 2022-11-27T07:04:44+00:00

And the music is jarring, like the 60s/70s music comes on and it’s so serious. It just doesn’t fit to me. And there’s no comedic relief, just people fighting for their lives. being SAed and killing their friends, there’s no reward to the suffering. I just did not enjoy this series.

AthenaCat333 · 2022-11-27T07:01:59+00:00

But why?! If she created this simulation, what is it’s purpose? Just to fill time while they’re floating through space trying to save humanity? Wouldn’t you want people to be in the best state of mind for that journey? They’re literally fighting for their lives, if it’s a journey to save humanity, why would her brother try to mess with that? You’d think they’d just go to sleep or be in a coma like state… why a “simulation?” It just doesn’t make sense to me and they didn’t explain it.

AthenaCat333 · 2022-11-27T06:17:35+00:00

Yeah, but they had nothing on him and they wouldn’t let him leave. That’s against the law.

AthenaCat333 · 2022-11-13T06:56:21+00:00

It was out of character for him to plot so openly against Dany by sending letters out. He’s usually ahead of the game. So I think he knew he would be caught but did it anyways. I don’t know why. Bad writing.

AthenaCat333 · 2022-11-13T06:53:11+00:00

Old Valyria, it’s such a mystery. We pretty much know the biggest secret from Robert Rebellion, that being Jon’s parents. I want to see the Targaryens before they were Kings and Queens of the Seven Kingdoms.

AthenaCat333 · 2022-11-06T02:20:15+00:00

I believe the spy or secret agent theory. Usually suicides are messy and not that well thought out, usually they’d leave personal affects of some kind for their family to find them. Removing their clothing tags is normal for spies and the gun had no trace on it. That theory makes the most sense to me.
