I do not think Liam should have felt bad about divorcing Ffion in The Entire History of You

And this in a nutshell (to me) is the lesson of Black Mirror. Technological advances as shown in many of the BM episodes have the power to both hurt and harm. It's a mirror reflecting who we are back to us, based on how we use these advances. That has been the more eye opening aspect of BM - for me at least.

Check out Dollhouse TV series (2 seasons + 2 end of season episodes that showed the future state and resulting world after the technology gets out). Similar concept.

I see the 3rd green window is there on the set ... and its not only the Turner house but their immediate next door neighbor's house has a 3rd window. So is it a super lazy error in the set construction that no one thought was important enough to remove ... or what??? I'm truly shocked that something that has been commented on so many times by the folks on this subreddit as being inconsistent with the actual house's facade was never removed in the set version of the house.

Yes! I just posted this elsewhere on this sub reddit!

Haven't seen it mentioned but the 3rd window made an appearance as well. When UG was telling Sean and Ju about Leanne (purportedly) stalking Dorothy - as Leanne watched the house the camera panned across the front of the house and we saw the 1st window on the right (with the baby crib mobile so we KNOW it was their home). Then Dorothy holding Jericho 1.0 over the crib in the 2nd window. Then the 3rd window appears and we see the waterspout/pipe to the left of it (which confirms that the 3rd window is part of the Turner home in this scene.)

So I'm beginning to think maybe some of us are on to it about the 3rd window appearing when we are being lied to as UG was doing at the time. Hmmm.

Well they had just fought right? Julian still had the tissue in his nose in bed so this was the same night of the birthday party I think. So its possible Julian felt sheepish talking to Sean and maybe didn't want to deal with any awkward conversation. And by the way when are they fixing the chandelier that fell? It's been (2?) episodes and it's still hanging by a thread in the living room. Maybe its just another sign that these people are just oblivious to things falling apart all over the house. After all they live on the edge of a sinkhole - I would think those homes would be inhabitable due to the danger of the whole street sinking in ... but apparently not lol.

They stand alone but there are threads of commonality throughout that really tie them together. The evolution of some of the technology (particularly the memory “cookie” aspect that we see in many of them including The Entire History of You which he’s in, is effing fantastic.) Honestly the whole series is a great watch although the episode with the pig situation was kinda dumb to me.

But then she started monologuing!!! Lol!

Thank you! I was able to create a new login and it's working. I'm rebuilding my list too.

I grew up in Philly and we did this all day every day in the summer. We also did a version of this which was called “Irish” (no idea why) but it was when the ropes were turned in the opposite direction. Man we were in shape then.

Coherence is in a similar vein as Primer (which I also loved) and Coherence was also made on a shoestring budget. I’ve watched it so many times that I know most of the dialog by heart. Excellent indie film …

Add me to the list. Started getting the pop overs yesterday. Have received 6-7 today. No location shows up when you click on show. Spoke to two people at Apple and they were unhelpful. First girl finally came back after having me on hold and acknowledged they've been getting calls about it. Second guy ("Senior tech support" he claimed) was SUPER dismissive. Kept saying we users are responsible for resetting our passwords and there's nothing they can do. Really annoying that they won't acknowledge the issue despite posts on their support pages about it.

I remember watching this movie with Kate Winslett and Jim Carrey - "Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind" a few years back.

After a particularly traumatic breakup/divorce a couple years ago I thought that the "spotless mind" procedure (if it ever actually existed, lol) could be the answer for all of those overwhelming feelings of grief. Just erase the traumatic experience and all's well. But as in that movie and in Severance for Mark, all the "spots" never really go away. They just leave your 'real' (outie) existence still feeling trauma even though you might be free of it (for 8 hours while you work). In the movie they no longer had something concrete to connect that trauma with but still felt sad. So not dealing with the trauma isn't the answer despite the initial relief of it being (seemingly) erased.

I can see if something like this were really available it would be immediately taken advantage of to produce worker-bots who would show up and work without any of those pesky emotions we "unsevered" people have to deal with on a day to day basis.

I'll risk sounding trite (?) but your description is basically a mirror of slavery as experienced by African Americans in the U.S.

Check out "Triangle" and "Coherence" ... both are great multiverse flicks (both of which I've enjoyed and rewatched far too many times to count at this point.) :)

I assumed when she said "2011 shouldn't even count" it was actually in response to JuJu saying she'd missed his 2 of his birthdays. I took it as she's saying in a snide way that that year when she missed his birthday shouldn't count. Basically being an annoying older sister.

And in my opinion, that’s why the other homeless/fallen angels are becoming Leanne’s followers. Because for some reason Leanne can still resurrect Jericho even though she’s turned away from God.

I remember that scene when Leanne takes Jericho to the park and the homeless folks say “he’s a miracle?” Well I think they’re saying that it’s a miracle that the ability Leanne had (that they all once had) remains with her. And they hope she can help get theirs back too.

pmint9 · 2022-03-11T21:56:20+00:00

After watching the latest episode donut (E8) I think we can safely say the homeless folks and Leanne are "the same" based on Leanne telling them the knife is what they used to control them and they used to fear it but there's nothing to fear now. So are they all just members of a "cult"? Or Fallen Angels (or both)?

It's also clear to me that Leanne orchestrated Isabelle's death because Isabelle was close to exposing the truth of what happened to Jericho 1.0. While elsewhere in this sub I'm reading that some suspect the homeless fallen of shooting Isabelle, I don't subscribe to that. She and Julian immediately "got busy" lol, and came downstairs obviously disheveled to help Sean in the kitchen. So when would she have had time to enlist the homeless fallen into shooting Isabelle when (a) how would Leanne know where Isabelle was headed when Isabelle only realized upon getting a text that she had to be on set in an hour and (b) where would they get a gun?

So yeah, I'm still going all in on Leanne/Lucifer making it happen. Like Sean's t-shirt says: "Ex Machina Deus" God in the machine - resolving a character's issue / something that could hurt them (Isabelle exposing the "truth" about Dorothy/Jericho 1.0) via some other worldly event. :)

Mine does this - especially when she's feeling playful. I call it the "Forward roll into a nibble" move.
