Black Mirror Season 4

Not good enough to lock you in on an uninterrupted viewing, though, it would appear.

yo soy el mejor 12-31-2017 06:04 PM

^ many things have

yo soy el mejor 12-31-2017 06:11 PM

v good show

we watched the first episode of season 4 in texas

and we just watched the 2nd episode back in chicago

some are slow, but they're a pleasure. 2 or 3 have been duds. san junipero was one as well as the waldo episode.
we were introduced to the series a while back by tim's dad in panama

San Jun was good not my favorite but a fun change of pace because it's like writers went out of their way to defy expectations with a period piece in California with a fairly happy ending

Elphenor 12-31-2017 06:37 PM

you'd catch me at the punk place soundtracked with Pixies Something Against You

first episode of season 4 sucked.

there, i said it.

it did have some good stuff going for it, but ultimately it was not up to par with the show's usual level

I loved series one of Black Mirror, and I guess I looked away for a second and three more seasons happened.

Yeah it wasn't great. It just got americanized a little i think. Softened on the edges.

Let's do some scrying suckers!

I enjoyed it

teh b0lly!!1 01-09-2018 02:38 AM

gotta be honest, i'm not the kind of guy to go around and get annoyed at other people's preferences, but it straight up pisses me off that people are liking this

teh b0lly!!1 01-09-2018 02:46 AM

it is now a shadow of what the show used to be all about, all the subtle, astute satire and terrifying glimpses into dark possible futures. it's all gone. you can feel it being detached from its essence as it makes the transition into just another american tv show where twisted shit happens in the foreseeable future

smashingjj 01-09-2018 05:35 AM

i changed my mind, it was excellent

LaBelle 01-09-2018 05:57 AM

Looking forward to seeing it.

i go at things with low expectations. it's not what it used to be, no. i understand your annoyance but not your emotional attachment to the people who enjoy the same show you used to maybe enjoy (or not I don't really know). i realize I'm probably like a complete different generation of person but while trying to not defend the show at all, I think people should hate it and find reason to if that's what they wanna do. I hate some things too, like the show friends and the people who like it. ad infinum. it's trying a thing though. it is homogenized yeah.. it's probably a lot like when the twilight zone became popular, or OZ had a bad streak of a season here or there or when breaking bad was a slow moving mess to me. i'm sure each season will be different. **MJRICA FJCK JEA**

teh b0lly!!1 01-09-2018 11:06 PM

what i meant to say was, it makes me angry that people like it, for the same reason it would piss me off to find out my fav chocolate brand has significantly reduced the cocoa solid percentage in their dark chocolate, only to have more people buying it than ever. that means it's working, you know?

yeah every show has drops in quality, that's human and understandable. but with Black Mirror it was more like knowingly selling your soul to the devil. it was prescribed. and yes i'm quite a fan of the show's British era. i intend to type up something about this soon, but it's hard to get my ball rolling these days. this is not an innuendo or invitation for sex.

yo soy el mejor 01-09-2018 11:09 PM

you're always such a proponent of letting people like what they like... i no get it

teh b0lly!!1 01-09-2018 11:17 PM

sure.

LaBelle 01-11-2018 02:07 PM

I'm 2 episodes into season 4. Liked the space fleet episode didn't like arkangel.

But it totally feels like a different show than even seasn 3.

LaBelle 01-14-2018 07:19 AM

Finished watching it yesterday. Kinda bummed with the direction they appear to be taking going by the final episode which brings a lot of different episode's stories together...
The show seems to be more about itself now than the interesting social critique of the early episodes.

MyOneAndOnly 01-14-2018 10:12 AM

check out Electric Dreams on Amazon. it's an anthology scifi program as well. Not quite the same as Black Mirror. But cool for sure

LaBelle 01-14-2018 05:20 PM

Downloading it now! Thank you

I've got like two episodes left of the entire series.....I like the happy ones, all two of them. The one where the insurance lady and her family get murdered kinda scared me. Also the ones where people died in game. Yikes.

LaBelle 01-15-2018 08:54 PM

The insurance lady episode gets really dark near the end. Yikes.
