Didn't even realise it had started again. I hate waiting for episodes, so I'll be waiting until nearer the end of the season before I start.

>>1313I check it out, and they're not going to the end of their idea. There going to try to probably make some kinda of propaganda about how giving people freedom is actually bad.
I'm piss because it's gonna work, normal person are sheep and there going to follow the hype train, instead of thinking for them self.
If i was able to see this in the first episode I'm pretty sure some people will see much more.

>>1313Just finished it, thought it was good, and very interested in the rest of the season.
Immediately after watching I thought oh soykaf, are they going to do some stupid time travel story line? but
after reading a bunch of forums, I think a lot of the fan theories are true, and it will eventually turn out to be simulation theory, White Rose knowing the truths to it all, and that is why they are able to 'correct' everything No.1327

>>1323It was a different chan but I came across this movie in a Mr. Robot thread. If you like Mr. Robot you should watch it. Even if you don't like Mr robot its still a good hacker movie.
I was actually kinda disappointed in this episode. [sp] I wish they had done something better for the Washington township reveal especially cause they built it up so much. [/sp]
>>1326I hope that this is the actual premise cause that'd be much more interesting and make a lot more sense than [sp] time travel [/sp] I also think it'll fit the theme of the show better. Also I would love to see how white rose's time thing works into it.

Looking forward to it, I’m thinking this season is going to be back on sci-fi form. I think season 2 was too ‘mindfreak’ in intention after season 1 establishing itself as a hacker/sci-if drama.

I hope that Darlene is a critique on those slacktivists you get on Facebook. You know all

But when it actually happens
> OMG did u noe that reberlution meanz society changes? Y r the fbi getting up in mah grill? Won’t does bad dueds frm China plz leave me alone even tho I squealed? ;__;
Darlene was already my least favourite character and I really hope we don’t get a whole season of her whining about starting a revolution not just being a hack, then a party and then rainbows instantly.

>>1339That's actually what they want to TV series to show. It a sort a propaganda to show people massively that rebellion is soykaf. When the truth further ahead.
They didn't commit to there a idea until the end that what happend when some big corporate take control of the relevant media/show/series/book etc.

Autism. This new season is pure autism.
Tries to be relevant because technically the show is still set in 2015/2016 by including Trump/May criticism but just uses the same set of insults every media is using rather then something interesting. The creator of the show has his ass so far up his head I highly doubt this show will have a 4th season. I had zero interest in a third season seeing where the 2nd season went. Nobody really gives a soykaf if the hacking is real or if you've hidden a bunch of messages (for a fucking dumb prize, mind you), but that was their focus for S2.
1st Season is good, Fight Club copy but good
2nd Season is trying to make something work, but has a incredibly predictable plot twist that makes the season feel pointless
3rd Season is the creator trying to save the show because he knows he's written himself into a corner with this plot so now he introduces sci-fi elements into a show that wasn't supposed to be sci-fi.

>>1345Oh yeah I forgot how much Trump hates capitalism. I think you're watching a different show bb
No.1349
>>1345Honestly why do the alt-right think everything is secretly in support of them?
The first series was anarcho-socialist if anything, trying to redistribute capital simply by taking it away from the corporation that owns it all and thus setting up an equal playing field.
The expectation being that without being shackled with debt and bills the people take back society for themselves instead of it being owned by the ultra rich.
The most important quote for this point is Elliot saying “I don’t give a soykaf about money”, you will never hear someone with alt-right views say that.
No.1350
>>1349The alt-right is composed of a minority of opportunistic wealthy individuals and a majority of mediocre middle-class power-projecting into the big bad monster the former pretends to be. They can't even decide if they hate the State or if they love it, and in general, all their arguments are misunderstood or distorted on puporse leftist notions.
Just like historical fascism. Heh.

Well the cyberpunk vision of the future is starting to happen. People are actually believing that corporate types know what's good for them and cares about society at all levels.
While believing politicians are all corrupt, only interested in themselves and what happens at their own social stratum, sees people as walking piggy banks and wouldn't know what 'real life' is anyway because they all grew up living off of daddy's bank balance.
The irony is huge but it's hardly surprising, first lesson of business is how to sell black as being white.

>>1353The thing is, I'd totally live with it if the world suddenly started resembling Blade Runner or GitS or some soykaf. But I know it won't thanks to the whole post-Apple design and Google's "If people don't recognise it as a computer then they won't realise how much access we have to their lives" philosophy
Now the future is going to be soykaf and not at all aesthetic.

>>1355Exactly, and tech advertising likes using music with ukuleles and triangles, this sort of music
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bUW4YZecbGAbecause it makes them seem harmless and playful.
They're aware that their branding is going to be attached to a lot of stuff just through the scope of what they do, so it pays to make them seem as least threatening as possible. Microsoft failed because they already had the stigma of trying to create a monopoly in the 90s so no matter how many ukuleles, flat designs and depictions of hipster friends laughing while taking selfies on the beach people are still going to be freaked out over the idea of having an MS phone, a MS watch, a MS television and a MS refrigerator.
Google has no such stigmas and any businesses that could possibly reveal how obtrusive Google is have now been re-branded and quietly owned by "Alphabet". I suppose their marketing team realised that people might one day start asking why the fuck is their internet search engine dealing with their healthcare.

>>1497Enjoyed it. Not as much as the 5th, sure, but it was still good imo. It opened a new box of questions for the end of the season.
The inner struggle, even though it was not extraordinarily original, was pretty fun. And the ending was more interesting than I expected. All in all this was a pretty ok "make the story progress" episode.

As a viewer it's not fun to have that feeling that what you're watching is probably crumble to dust. So no i didn't like and yes it was kinda predictable.
No.1512
Eps 5 and 6 were both superb.
It restored my faith in the writers.
It saddens me to think, however, that the most likely course of action is that they'll end up stretching the series just to milk off more money.
I like things that end, and I don't like cliffhangers all that much. I dislike series mostly because I don't get the option to see it through to it's end, and even less because I never know WHEN it's going to finish.
No.1514
>>1512I totally agree on this. I hope they don't just drag it out. However I feel like they actually have a plan for this series, especially with how much it's escalated in the past few episodes.
That being said I hope they can actually pull it off and it's not just, "Let's do super intense episodes and never follow through cause we like money".

Honestly I'm starting to lose hope in whiterose. I destroyed all those buildings and killed millions because you made me ask twice It's too over the top for me.
I did like, however, the pointing out to Mr. Robot that his revolution was all for nothing, just a quick buck for rich people to keep being rich. It points out the flaws of an ideal revolution, to the fact that the revolution you were expecting isn't or ever going down like how you want it to be.

So now what? Next season is taking down the DA? And what the fuck difference does it make if he reverts the hack? I fucking knew they were going to stretch it. At least I hope it's as good as this one.
Also what's with the drug dealer guy at the ending? what the fuck relevance does he have? No.1555
>>1554Well
he did kill Elliots girlfriend. Maybe they're gonna bring Elliot back into the consequences of his one more time. It was a theme this season and if writing was gonna get sloppy it'd just become Elliot getting soykaf on for all his actions forever.
