The one thing that the #HisDarkMaterials adaptation did get right is the opening sequence:

However, I do mean primarily the visual part of it. The music just sounds like someone trying to emulate Ramin Djawadi

@Gargron Not a fan?

(I read the books but haven’t seen this adaptation yet)

@Gargron Here's a service that sends you an email the day an episode airs. Also show's when shows start after you "follow" it. https://followshows.com/show/The-Expanse

I am now listening to the "vocal isolation" version of Altered State by Tesseract. Is there a version of that album I will not listen to?

@Gargron I also liked Lone Wolf and Cub, so, I like this as well

@Gargron You mean the baby Yoda show feat. The Mandalorian?

I’m really disappointed with the screenwriting in this show. A lot of telling, not a lot of showing, definitely just going down a checklist of what happens without caring about natural progression.

@GargronThey started a show on it? Where can I watch it? I really liked the books.

I cannot tell you how many times I've read #HisDarkMaterials when I was growing up.

Curious choice to reveal so early on that multiple worlds do actually exist and portals between them are possible. That wasn't in the book. Likewise Lyra shouldn't have learned about the daemon separation device up until she meets the abandoned boy in the north. While I can understand the purpose of the latter to up the stakes for viewers about Roger, the former seems purposeless to me right now. 🤔

I want to see more, but I am starting to be disappointed. I actually forgot about another huge early reveal, Lyra's parentage, until I started reading discussions about the episode. This show has an adequate production value but it seems like it's falling short in the screenwriting department.

CGP Grey should host a Mastodon server :tinking:

@Gargron I would love to have one. The features that it has are amazing. The design sucks for sure but it is amazing when you look at the features 🙃

@Gargron For heaven's sake, it's not even December yet.

Is it not enough that you've already advanced the Armageddon by several centuries? Must you do the same with my son's birthday too? I am the one who has to get the cake you know.

I'm watching the Sacha Baron Cohen speech and I agree with a lot of what he says up to the point where he suggests checking every single post before it's published 🤔

@Gargron the Anti Defamation League is not a legitimate force for good. It uses claims of antisemitism to shut down legitimate criticism of the Israeli occupation.

Josh Humble

@Gargron laws and rules aren't going to make people better. We are what we are. This over-restricted world we're becoming has failed repeatedly throughout time. Bandaids don't cure anything, and in this case, it just ruins the web to overregulate it.

And according to WHOM?
