Above Our Own posted:Calling the big bad mega corporation "EvilCorp" is blatant almost to the point of parody and I hope it indicates that the show has some self-awareness. I wouldn't mind seeing an inversion of the angsty hacker trope although that probably aint gonna happen. Well, its not actually called Evil Corp, that's just what he calls it and mentally replaces every reference to it, which is why everyone else says it too.

Nah, E Corp is supposed to be one big multinational conglomerate. They mention that the security firm he works for gets most of their business from them.

Its just a weird fit for USA in general, not just in tone but how they love to do corporate partners with their shows.

A fun one is how Suits has a car sponsor, even though it is set in NYC and nobody regularly drives anywhere.

We saw Mr. Robot interact with those guys stalking Elliot in the first episode. Of course they could always have been fake too but that's getting kind of out there.

The preview for next week looked like it might show Mr. Robot and Elliott in different places so it could put to rest the idea that Mr. Robot isn't real.

steakmancer posted:Did they definitively establish that Tyrell got the CTO position, since he seemed brushed aside for another candidate in the 3rd episode, but was mentioned as E's CTO in a news broadcast in the next episode? Or is this another weird point just manipulable by the unreliable narrator conceit? He's interim CTO. He's just not getting the job permanently and will be expected to step down when the new guy gets it.

Trabant posted:Ghost Dad reboot looking good. Despite the name, he wasn't a ghost in that. For a point in the "Mr. Robot isn't real" camp, the conversation in the stairwell had a rather pointed line where he told Elliott to face the truth.

The first episode had Shayla naked, which seems like a good indicator that this might not be appropriate for preteens.

So there's basically two options here: Mr. Robot is actually Elliot and he's just projecting his father's image Mr. Robot is actually Elliot's father and he faked his own death playing on Elliot's mental issues to kind of just swoop in and as long as he didn't say anything Elliot wouldn't realize what was going on. I'm kind of leaning toward the second as he is noticeably older than in the pictures, which would be an odd detail for a crazy person to come up with.

Steve112sms posted:He only looked a lot younger in a few of the pictures where he's by himself. He looks about the same to me in the pictures with child Elliot. Down to the same glasses and jacket. I assumed the pictures were just his dad when he was younger. He has gray hair now and doesn't in the pictures of Elliot as a kid. He might have faked his own death considering what we know about him dying was kind of odd, like the whole thing where Elliot wasn't supposed to tell anyone that he was sick.

It's kind of hard to judge age with Christian Slater in the first place since he's looked pretty much the same since the 80s.

IIRC Angela and Elliot didn't meet each other until after the death because it was part of the whole lawsuit thing. Although I think she would know which parent died.

Well, remember he only told Elliot he was dying of cancer and swore him to secrecy. It only became a thing when Elliot told other people about it. So he could have been planning something else and Elliot screwed it up, forcing him to go through a charade of "dying of cancer." If he was also a good hacker we can assume he did exactly the same thing Elliot did and hacked into a hospital to fake results.

In last week's episode when Mr. Robot and Romero were talking Romero tells Mr. Robot to "tell the kids I said hi." Which could be interpreted multiple ways.
