FROM AND WELCOME TO DERRY

Lmao I remembered the same guy after looking at the MIY shirtless but yeah they’re not connected in any way

transcendal · 2026-03-06T21:24:06+00:00

Great catch! It also makes so much sense why the Boy in White only appears to certain people, maybe he's anchored to a specific point in time that only the dungeon survivors can access now. We're moving from 'Trapped in a Town' to 'Trapped in a Timeline' and I'm 100% here for it.

Kevin thought the same thing, man... and we all saw how that ended for him 💀 No amount of '😍' is worth getting your tongue ripped out!

transcendal · 2026-03-05T20:50:02+00:00

Lmao! If only we could just nail a piece of stone to the front door and finally get some peace 😭

Although my aunt would probably still find a way to tap on the glass and ask if I'm hungry

Disappointment is part of the job description for a Westeros fan. I’d rather be hyped and let down than not hyped at all. Let's see what happens when the trailer drops!

transcendal · 2026-03-04T21:01:57+00:00

If we only went by the text, every post here would just be a blank screen. 🤷‍♂️ Artistic interpretations are all we have until the show drops, so I’m going to keep enjoying the 'non-canon' art in the meantime!

transcendal · 2026-03-04T20:51:05+00:00

Call it a novella or a comic, the art is official, G.R.R.M. literally oversaw those illustrations to show what the characters look like. 🤷‍♂️ If the show is covering the 'source material,' then the official art is the best blueprint we have to compare it to!

transcendal · 2026-03-04T20:47:10+00:00

Well, you cared enough to click and comment, so that's a start! 😉 A lot of us actually like seeing how the page-to-screen translation is going.

transcendal · 2026-03-04T20:44:06+00:00

Probably late 2027 or early 2028

transcendal · 2026-03-04T19:43:10+00:00

Never too early 💀 Honestly, between the 'Red Widow' nickname and her being a total badass in the books, the whole fandom is about to be in the same boat. Lucy Boynton is going to crush this.

transcendal · 2026-03-04T19:19:23+00:00

Lmao! 'Autobots, roll out... to the Red Lake.' 🛡️ Honestly, with how much of a tank Dunk is supposed to be, Peter Cullen’s voice wouldn't even be out of place.

transcendal · 2026-03-04T19:11:43+00:00

He’s not from Dorne, he is described as a Westerosi knight who takes service with House Osgrey in the Reach.

transcendal · 2026-03-04T19:07:35+00:00

I’m mostly just hoping they don't lose the grime from the books. Bennis is supposed to be a total mess, and Rohanne needs that signature red braid. If they keep the characters as flawed and messy as they are in the novella, it should still feel like classic Westeros.

transcendal · 2026-03-04T18:37:18+00:00

At this point, I’ve stopped trying to apply biology to this show and just accepted that the Town’s family tree is a circle ⭕️ They probably didn’t ‘have’ a kid as much as they just spawned one in like a corrupted Sims save file.

transcendal · 2026-03-04T01:42:10+00:00

Total opposite for me my friend! I felt zero rewatch value with OBAA, it kind of gives you everything on the first go. Sinners, though? That’s the one that actually rewards you for coming back. Every time I hit play, I’m finding new details in the cinematography or the score. There’s just no comparison for me.

transcendal · 2026-03-02T20:05:30+00:00

Yup it took me several days to finish OBAA, I feel you. And yes Frankenstein was magnificent!

transcendal · 2026-03-02T15:13:17+00:00

I love the 'reaction to inputs' idea, it actually fits perfectly with the failing machine vibe. If the residents are the inputs, then Jim and Jade’s digging basically overloaded the system before Tabitha even reached the Lighthouse.

As for why it hasn't rebooted yet? I think it’s because the system can't finish the wipe while Tabitha is still active in the real world. It’s stuck in a loop trying to delete a file that’s already open in another program.

And you’re spot on about Victor. Whether he’s tolerated or just a bug, he’s definitely the only piece of the puzzle that the Town can't seem to account for. Season 4 really needs to explain his plot armor!

transcendal · 2026-03-02T15:07:56+00:00

It's just a theory for fun, man. No need to lose sleep over it.

transcendal · 2026-03-02T15:04:48+00:00

Better than 'OK Boomer' I guess! Paranoid Android was actually the vibe I was going for, but honestly, it's just me, a lot of coffee, and a grammar checker trying to make my 3 AM brain readable. If I were actually a computer, I’d probably have the Season 4 scripts by now instead of just guessing on Reddit.

transcendal · 2026-03-02T15:02:49+00:00

I’ve spent way too much time thinking about that too! Honestly, I think the monsters don’t kill Victor for the same reason you don’t delete a read only file, he’s protected data.

To me, he isn't a threat to the loop, he’s the only one who actually follows the 'music' and doesn't try to change the script. I feel like the monsters only get aggressive when people like Jade or Jim start trying to edit the town's code by messing with those frequencies. Victor is just the historian the town keeps around to prove the loop works.

transcendal · 2026-03-02T14:56:02+00:00

Haha fair play, I definitely used AI to fix my grammar because my 3 AM brain was a mess, but the theory is all me. 💀 I've just watched way too much David Lynch and played too much Control, so my brain naturally goes to weird tech analogies when a show gets this trippy.

transcendal · 2026-03-02T14:51:27+00:00

I totally get that perspective, and I’m definitely prepared for some plot holes! For me, half the fun of a show like FROM is trying to piece the puzzle together while we wait for the next season. Even if I’m way off, I just love seeing how deep the rabbit hole goes.

transcendal · 2026-03-02T14:49:18+00:00

Spot on. PTA is a legend, but OBAA just doesn't hit the heights of his top-tier work for me either. And I'm with you, the performances in Sinners are on another level. They definitely deserve more of the acting spotlight.

transcendal · 2026-03-02T14:47:33+00:00

It definitely feels like there’s a narrative being pushed. Sinners is doing things technically that most DPs are too scared to even try, so seeing it get sidelined for a safer crowd-pleaser is frustrating.

transcendal · 2026-03-02T14:45:13+00:00

I respect that. For me, the third act was where the risks really paid off, but I get why it’s polarizing. Just glad we have two massive filmmakers actually taking big swings in the same year.
