This show is extremely my poo poo, but I have to say that space battle was the most thrilling one I can recall since BSG Alex's speech at the bar made my eyes water up a bit

I'm glad someone told me they were making a TV series literally seconds before I ordered the books, I stopped myself and so this is all new to me

This show is like a loving religious experience for me, this must be how some kinds of autistic people feel about trains

I actually liked the Martian marines once they stopped dunking on Earth Guy and showed some empathy so my only real complaint is that their power armour reminds me a bit too much of the nonsensical armour permutations from the later Halo sequels that nobody likes

Baronjutter posted:I do like that the misery in the expanse seems at least realistic and the powers involved are locked into it. Earth can't stop brutally squeezing the belt because they need resources for their dead gay planet with a majority of people on some form of welfare. Any losses from the belt, any rise in prices would directly translate into lower living standards on earth which would be political suicide for anyone who allowed it to happen. They can't reduce their military budget because mars might get the upper hand in space and earth absolutely needs those space resources or it could potentially be a total collapse of their society. By the time I finished reading this post I became a radicalized OPA extremist bent on nuking the inyaloda scum, holy gently caress I hope they do a bit where a talking head is on TV saying poo poo like you did and then some wirey-looking freak with an undercut runs in and clobbers him with a spanner or something Oppressed populations typically do not (and nor should they) give a gently caress about their oppressors

It seemed to me like these were the people living outside the system, which would explain the loudspeaker advertising basic, trying to convince people to sign up

BSG is worth seeing through once (and if you watched it when it was on the air, that was probably enough) but for all the reasons others have pointed out it doesn't really hold up upon rewatches, after awhile everyone just becomes a stupid rear end in a top hat and at the end everybody just decides to give up...? Whatever, it did a lot of things well enough that every sci fi show since then has tried to lift at least part of BSG's style. This is pretty understandable since until then pretty much the whole genre was stuck riffing on the Trek formula, I think the last show to change things up was Babylon 5 but it never had the impact on following shows that BSG did. The Expanse hasn't hit the sheer emotional weight of scenes like the New Caprica rescue but as a series it's its own animal and feels like a proper science fiction story adapted for television, and overall I feel like it's been a more enjoyable experience than BSG was at this point in it's run. And I mean what the gently caress else is there with spaceships in it right now, Dark Matter? Killjoys at least tries to have fun with itself but DM pisses me off at how much of a terrible throwback to 90s syndicated shows that weren't Star Trek or Xena were

Baronjutter posted:Expanse isn't exactly "hard" scifi it's just really internally consistent with how its universe's physics and technology works unlike 99% of space shows. That's hard enough for this show to gently caress my brain

Dark Matter and Killjoys should have stayed in the late 90s where they belonged

If I had one major complaint about The Expanse it would be how unremarkable the music has been for the most part. The theme is pretty decent but nothing else has really jumped out at me.
