"Cavewoman" is actually a racist term. They prefer to be called Mole-people

Anybody else disappointed in the intro? The music is cool but I don't like that they didn't go with something visually different. It would have been interesting if each season had a completely different intro.

sticklefifer posted:I'm kinda surprised there hasn't been a character introduced who's like "I didn't lose anyone, don't know anyone who did, the world was overpopulated anyway, so whatever." If only just for a contrast to everyone's pain and society's fallout from the Departure. "Yeah, it actually benefits humanity as a whole, guys. No biggie." One of the cool things about the show is that none of the main characters lost anyone in the departure except Nora. And she is probably the least psychotic of them all.

And Kevin talks to dead people and drinks poison to cure himself. John burns down houses. Laurie, when not in a cult, is literally one of the scammers that Nora is against. UmOk fucked around with this message at 04:23 on May 16, 2017 |

Niwrad posted:I'm a little confused at the ending. It seemed like Matt's conversation with "God" sort of broke him. But then at the end when the lion eats "God", that has to only reinforce Matt's views, right? I mean he was reading straight from the Book of Daniel on the plane. He says "Thats the guy I was telling you about." He's has been telling people about god his entire life.

I think the other place(if it exists) is where bad folk go when they die. Who has Kevin met there? A murderer, a wife-beater, and a child molester. Be cool if Meg was there trolling the afterlife.

I feel this episode really told viewers that, other than the departure, nothing "supernatural" is going on and that everyone is just getting crazier. In the other place Kevin learns absolutely nothing he doesn't already know and only meets people he already knows are dead. He may just be addicted to being asphyxiated. Edit: I take back that he doesn't learn anything in the other place. He learns about himself.

Rupert Buttermilk posted:Goddamn, that narration during the promo for the next episode... Can't wait. I liked this episode, it was crammed full of happenings, which is nice. The last shot in the etherworld of Patti and Kevin watching the bombs fall was nice. Kevin's mind. He says he wants to nuke it so he can never come back.

Only Matt and Nora need to be wrapped up now. Both Kevins(Sr. and JR.) and the Murphys stories were perfectly concluded in this episode. I don't know what else there is to say about them.

Bulky Bartokomous posted:I thought this episode "really told people that, other than the departure, nothing "supernatural" is going on and that everyone is just getting crazier"? That doesn't sound too ambiguous. You left off the beginning of that post where I said "I feel." I didn't mean for it to come off as authoritative. Just my personal interpretation of the show and I'm totally down with reading others. Except for Oliwan. He/She has an MA in literature and is too smart for me.

HanabaL03 posted:Patti's quote stating that she knows there absolutely isn't a God made it pretty clear for me. She stated that Kevin brought her out of retirement, and since Kevin helped her she felt obliged to help him. So there is an afterlife but no god? Patti has never really been a reliable source of information.

I watched all 10 hours of season 1 and I hated every minute. So I watched 10 more hours of season 2 and I hated it even more. Now I am watching 8 hours of the final season and I hate every episode so far. I will continue watching.

Rupert Buttermilk posted:I'd say it's more supernatural than not, just by going by who and what Kevin sees during his experiences. Like I said earlier: His afterlife experiences are ambiguous because he never meets anyone that he doesn't already know is dead(or in a coma) and he only learns things about himself.

Like, I really don't like Orange is the New Black. I watched 2 episodes and realised this. I didn't feel the need to watch the rest of them so I could go on something awful dot com and rant about how bad it is.

Raxivace posted:One idea that I really wish had been left more ambiguous in season 2 that I never see anyone else talk about is about is the thing about Matt possibly raping Mary. The way it initially plays makes it seem like it could go in this direction, and Matt's story about Mary coming out of her coma one night and whether viewers even believe it or not fits the general themes of the story really loving well. It also helps that that episode was one of the better ones of season 2. This was my biggest problem with season 2. Things were just resolved too solidly. S1 had very little of that type of resolution.

Lord Krangdar posted:Those are the plot reasons, but on an earlier page people were asking about the show-runners' motivations. I just thought it was interesting that it was one characters decision that led everyone there. I don't really get why people care about creators intentions or motivations. After something is complete their input and opinions are worthless. Not aiming this at you. Just in general. Niwrad posted:The weird cavewoman scene was done to gently caress with Andy Greenwald. The Matt episode from this season was written for a reviewer who said nice things about the show last season. All the Kevin dick jokes came from a joke online about Theroux in his sweatpants. Every scene you describe is good and fits with the show. I don't read reviews(other than goon posting) of anything so I guess that's why I don't get this line of criticism.

Nora's story doesn't really add up. If all these people were coming through to departed-land that would be proof to the departed people that you can move between worlds. Wouldn't the scientist have immediately started building a machine and sending everyone home?
