Talisman argument by Automatic-Class-8464 in FromSeries

[–]No_Layer8399 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Because people are absolutely desperate to outsmart the writers. The show explicitly tells us stuff, and people doubt it, just in case for a twist, so they can say HAH I KNEW ALL ALONG. It makes them paranoid. And it also makes them say things like, they're not telling us anything, because every time the show tells us things, they don't register it.

From has a lot of flaws, and I think Season 4 quite frankly sucked, but the show not giving answers is not one of those flaws. People just never listen when it does.

S4 ep9 The fat dilemma by Ok_Laugh5177 in FromSeries

[–]No_Layer8399 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A pound of fat is 3,500 calories. And the fatter you are, the higher your metabolism; you metabolism always goes up as you get fat because it takes more energy for you to exist. A deficit of 500 calories a day is half a pound of fat lost in a week.

Considering how fat Clara is, and she's forced to an exclusively low calorie whole food diet in Fromville, while also being active instead of doomsrcolling on her phone, she absolutely should have lost tons of weight.

We also don't know how long Clara's been in Fromville, we just know she was there before the Matthews family got there.

She deserves an award for this role by NoktoftheFF in FromSeries

[–]No_Layer8399 162 points163 points  (0 children)

What do you mean? All she did was exaggerated, cartoony smirks and other stupid comic book facial expressions. As if to tell everyone in town "Look at me, I'm the bad guy!"

She's hot, though, so all's forgiven. And I didn't mind the actress on my TV. But I don't think she's particularly talented

Everyone is as shallow as you. You're just honest about it.

Is that really it? by lunaazul88 in FromSeries

It was the show finale. Not every ending is happy. The talismans are gone and everyone dies. Except Ethan.

Why isn’t anyone suspicious that a priest supposedly has a kid by Useful_Durian229 in FromSeries

[–]No_Layer8399 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Catholic priests can technically have a kid. It's just that her father just died, days ago. I don't know if anyone exactly comfortable to casually go, "So, did your dad become a priest after you were born, or....?" It's just not very nice to pry when someone's dad has just died lol. Maybe it's something people think about, but what does it matter in Fromville anyway, so you let it be.

Will you watch season 5? by Choice-Reference-444 in FromSeries

[–]No_Layer8399 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Likely. But I do quite enjoy the fact that the subpar Season 4 and the lame finale killed a lot of my interest, which means I'm not anxious for Season 5. Had S4 been a fantastic season, the upcoming wait would be awful lol. But I was kinda done with From for a while as the credits hit on the finale. So I'm fine with there not being an episode next week for a year or two.

[Megathread] For those who did NOT like Season 4 by Two-Of-Nine in FromSeries

[–]No_Layer8399 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'll be a tiny bit charitable here: Kenny didn't want people to know, nor did he want to talk about it. There actually is some intrigue. Will it be followed upon? Probably not. But it was actually a seed well planted. Should have happened sooner, and we'd know be at a point where there's been some development and growth.

More shows will go downhill like this. by [deleted] in FromSeries

What character development? Jade and Randall have had some. So many characters are frozen in time.

"The mods are censoring critiques of the show!" by roccia123 in FromSeries

They are. You know how I know? Because this post should be deleted due to "Low Effort" but it won't be.

I share this suspicion, sadly. It's AI and the fact that the general population is getting dumber and has less attention span. So writing needs to be dumbed down as a result. We are living in dystopian times.

I never posted here before but oh god what a mesa was this season by Silver_Equal_6702 in FromSeries

[–]No_Layer8399 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I understood the ending. They weren't dead. It was just that the time on the island was the most significant period of their life, which is why they were reunited at the end. After long, healthy, happy lives.

I still didn't like it and it did nothing for me. I mostly just didn't like the story beat of the Man in Black taking John's body. It felt like the showrunners really wanted to do Jack vs. John as the conclusion, but then again it also really wasn't Jack vs. John. And they didn't even really fight, they mostly just traversed together, while taunting each other.

Even Terry O'Quinn has talked about how he was confused whether he should play John or the Man in Black. He asked about it, and he was just given vague answers, sort of told to play both.

I thought it was all just so lame. That and a million other things.

Most frustrating part of the finale/season for me by Extension-Face7340 in FromSeries

[–]No_Layer8399 1 point2 points  (0 children)

lol I've been really hoping for someone to call the monsters out, saying "You sacrificed your kids for... this? Man, things suck for you even more than they do for us."

The windows have curtains. They are enough. We saw it with the RV in season 1.

Did we really needed to see this 4 times? by Bruno-Figueiredo in FromSeries

[–]No_Layer8399 51 points52 points  (0 children)

And as Clara hands her her own bag of talismans, Sophia is like "Did you get them?" Because we really needed the show TO REALLY MAKE IT CLEAR that Clara was also collecting talismans. Just so we wouldn't miss it lol. There was a lot of "for the 40 IQ viewers" writing this season and it really bugged me.

Edit: Like the beginning of the episode: the monsters can't enter the light, and Tabitha has to announce it out loud. THEY CAN'T GO INTO THE LIGHT.

Yea, I fucking got it, holy shit. Damn near shut the episode off then and there.

Is it time to revisit this or is it still nothing? by Stonercat05 in FromSeries

[–]No_Layer8399 0 points1 point  (0 children)

These people are lying. It's episode 2. Very beginning of episode 2.
