A great year for Hugh Howie! The second film adaptation. Yes, and both were shot very beautifully.

It's not clear at all how interesting it will be, but the characters have obvious problems with logic, and the universe is strange (but it probably needs to get used to).

All this is interesting, but unclear. And I haven't read Howie's books, alas. If the concept is clear with the "Bunker" and the riddles are exactly what we were given in the plot, then everything is right here - it's one solid riddle🤨 But yes, we will see😁

@Serialschik732: and for me, it's quite the opposite. Hidi is a good actress, pulled the pilot, but even she couldn't pull it out. Maybe of course the original source is unsuccessful, the tie is weak and will swing further, I don't know, I haven't read it. And as for the Bunker, despite the unhurried narration of the series, it has an atmosphere and character, and in terms of the plot in the first season, they only got to the most interesting things, and this is not even the end of the first book.

@6o4ka: I remember Hidi from the nineties TV series about Merlin, she played Guinevere there. Then there were the films "Brothers Grimm", both parts of "300 Spartans", "Judge Dredd 3D", several more recent ones, including Netflix's "Powder Cocktail". Yes, and several TV shows too. So it is not known to the sole proprietors).

@6o4ka: one of the most popular projects of our time, which has raised the bar of quality for the serial audience to such heavens that all modern large-budget projects outside the cinema sphere are obliged to him for the rest of his life "consumer TV series".

Lena Headey is BEAUTIFUL as always, but Hugh Howie is such a Howie. It is difficult even to imagine a more dull scribbler and scribbler, and the scheme - "more questions, half of which will be unanswered" - goes as far as the unsophisticated layman!

@id227535998: ///How little space is in the series now, and even more so of high quality.///

Support.

The series The Expanse / Expansion / Space has set the bar high for films in the genre of science fiction. Now the weakness of the cinematic universes immediately catches the eye.

A spaceship is flying. Are there interstellar flights here? So the speeds are about light. Well, to get a sane flight time. And it will be a long time. There is a fire burning on the lighthouse! Mechanization by gears! Something is being mumbled into the radio! Yeah. That's the only way navigation and control can happen, at such speeds and at such distances.

If we accelerate for a year, then we need to slow down for a year. Now, what does it look like and what should be done to get an escape capsule on board? We need to at least level up the speed!

GG looks into the lumik and sees the enemy. Yelling: "Alarm, the wolf stole the kittens!" What will you visually see there at such distances and at such speeds.

Having such energy power. For some reason, it is necessary to pierce the starry space in order to get some rare "horseradish" there. Break atoms, bend electrons, get substances artificially.

To do work, to cut the government ration, to replace another person with yourself and think that no one will notice it. Yes, everything should be in chips, tags and other codes. It is also necessary to somehow agree with the principal samovar. That's how?

The knife fight scene is "beautiful." And what not to hit 20-40 times. Why get lost. Since that's the case.

A constantly recurring plot move. GG has a hot-water bottle whistling, and they didn't bring medical fly agarics from this.

And this is only the first episode. That's just every few minutes of watching, the game starts, - "Feel smart".

I hope I didn't spoil anyone's mood from watching the series. :-(

And there is no need to talk about the level of Vavilov and the cruiser of the Galaxy, this will not be removed anymore.

@Citokos: it's just Hugh Howie and sometimes it seems that any, even the simplest neural network, will write much better without all this dull banality.
The expansion was great, but that the series, that the literary source - only the first three parts, and then it went downhill.

@Citokos: You can continue to drive moose through the swamp.

The speeds are cosmic, but the distances are huge. This means that the ship accelerates half of the voyage, slows down half. Maybe there will be a segment of the path of movement along a ballistic trajectory. If the ship "Crest" was carrying a passenger to the lighthouse, then he had to fly to the lighthouse with the nozzles forward. There, the terravate exhaust will be visible for half the universe. Since the bogatyrskaya silushka, this is the product of the bogatyrskaya massushka on the bogatyrskoye acceleration. At such speeds, even a collision with a cat's whisker will have disastrous consequences. This means that the ship must detect and evade, with a comfortable acceleration of the maneuver for the crew. So the ship, in all ranges, will glow like a Christmas tree. Space is very empty. It won't be possible to sneak up suddenly.

Artificial gravity can be obtained by rotation. In the movie, there is a tunnel between the gravity areas. Well, the design is like this. That's just, there will be zero gravity in the center of rotation, and gravity will be created from the inner surface of the circle. It means that you should not go down the stairs, but go up. And not to fall, but to jump up very much!

"Feel smart." :-(

@MarkRaffer: Что там было прекрасно? Первый сезон туда-сюда, потом банальщина - инопланетный хайтек, порталы, какие-то базы древних цивилизаций, но в основном - это никакие главные герои и их сопли в шоколаде. Даже на перемотке не осилил эту муть до конца, хотя фанат космоса.

@lits: ///банальщина///

Я конечно паренёк не сильно насмотренный. А где не банальщина, и где шедевры в жанре НФ? Приведи примеры.

Смотрел, когда-то, "Светлячок" или более кровавый "Лекс". Это, без всяких кривляний космооперы. Набор притч в необычном антураже. Сцена боя в "Светлячке", в публичном доме. Я её, наверное, видел раз пять. В каких-то вестернах. Ещё есть "Вавилон 5". Где в сюжет введены инопланетяне с резиновыми мордами.

"Экспансию" постоянно сравнивают с сериалом "Космический крейсер Галактика". Решил посмотреть. Полтора сезона муки принимал!

Вот сюжетная линия. ГГ заразился половым путём инопланетянством, и теперь, за ним следом ходит галлюцинация. Болезнь должна или уже вылечится, или спрогрессировать, и у ГГ вырасти чешуя.

Вот сцена. Челнок сел на планету. А там беженцы. Один член экипажа отдал свое место беженцу, а сам остался на захваченной планете. Такое, понимаешь, самопожертвование. И?! Они военный. Там всё просто. Кто не в нашей форме, наказание - смерть. Опять же, получается он дезертир. Теперь родственникам пенсия не положена. А второй член экипажа, почему мышей не ловит. Он был обязан, силой оружия заставил дезертира вернуться в кресло? Может они заодно? После разбора полётов, его в карцер не посадят? Экипаж два человека, наверное, не просто так. Ведь там каждый перевезённый килограмм дороже своего вес в золоте. А ну как челнок под управлением одного пилота не долетит. Все погибнут.

And at all. What kind of outfit of forces is needed to take over the whole planet. To drop an asteroid, it will be more reliable.

The peasant actress punched the boss in the snout. Now, in the English Navy, she would have been hanged. All. The end of this actor's storyline.

Again, fighters with visual surveillance, as during the Second World War. You'll see a lot there. When the speeds are in km/sec, and the distances are in fractions of an astronomical unit.

Again, a leapfrog with positions. An actress and a pilot, and a stormtrooper, and almost a plumber. It doesn't happen that way. These are different positions, and they have different people. And there's a lot of that.

And in the "Expansion" they perfectly came up with the structure of the world. Since they accelerate half the way and slow down half of the way, the ships attack with nozzles forward. Ships look at screens, not through portholes. For the reasons mentioned above. Capitalism is like ours, but also the air is paid. There is a whole universe of resources. But it's not. Each stone already has its own owner. Terrible everyday racism, fascism of some kind. They sent the hard workers to the asteroids. Their children grew up in low gravity. And everything. They won't be coming back. Self-sacrifice for the sake of one's own, mass murder and genocide of others. Just like that, hello.

"Expansion" is a beautiful and terrible future, where analogies with our present can be traced.

@Citokos: well, I somehow don't care about the presence of cockpits and the brake moving forward, I overcame the period of fantasy fetishism in adolescence. The essence of the film is not in the right costumes and little things, but in the atmosphere and plot.

Vav-5, Firefly, Cowboy Bebop (anime, not TV series), Interstellar, Hell, Event Horizon, Prometheus, The Cloverfield Paradox is also nothing like that. There was something else, I watched it in batches in the 90s-00s.

The galaxy is like that, especially the end is crazy. The action is boring to the point of outrage, there are no heroes, I just don't care about them, actually, like the actors. In the first season, there was a detective line in a hat, so it was necessary to end it.

But if you're so impressed with the dark future, then OK. I kind of don't care, I grew up on the fiction of the 70s-90s, it was all there.

@lits: ///The essence of the film is not in the right costumes and little things, but in the atmosphere and plot.///

Well, who cares. I once watched a film adaptation by Stanislav Lam. It was shot in one room, which symbolizes a spaceship. GG holds onto the leg of a chair, which symbolizes the control of this ship. I can assume that this is a brilliant series for someone. But I, from such minimalism, pass.

"Plot and atmosphere".

There is such a modern trend, in scenarios, the main motive of a character's actions is to make schizophrenia, hallucinations, impulsive actions, dialogues with voices in his head. And that's it.

There is no doubt that acting in the series "Beacon 23" is difficult. The actors are trying hard for their portfolio. Here the actor is shaking like a bitch, but one pill is enough and now he is already as important as a turkey. Here the actor portrays a geek - technician who is talking, from loneliness and substances. But he is already the owner of the corporation: "It's all mine. I'll fire you!" Acting jobs - purely like Hitler rehearsing his speech in front of a mirror.

During the course of the play, the Operative put the Deserter in the airlock. It's a terrible thing to sit in the airlock. They will open the door and throw it into a vacuum. "To the fresh air" (c).

That is:

> Open the gateway.
> You really want to open the gateway. There is a man in the airlock!
> Yes.
> You really want to open the gateway. Will we lose (xxx) air?
> Yes.
> Are you sure, sure, sure you want to open the gateway?
> Yes.

When you're sitting in the airlock, you're four mouse clicks away from death.

And that's what happens next in this saga. The operative and the Deserter go through the contents of the closet. And then the Deserter has a sudden mental attack. What is he doing? Running back to the airlock!!! Not to his crib, which is in his fragrant lair. Not to the refrigerator, there is dark chocolate. He didn't hide in any crevice, where it was dry, warm and there was a watercolor hanging on the wall. He's running into the airlock!!! Where there were four mouse clicks before his death. Awesome "Plot and atmosphere".

You can also write about the rest of the episodes. All these, "we need to split up." All these, - in an unpaved room, with an artificial atmosphere, take off their helmets. The antagonist, who had served in the Military, served as a bread cutter along the way. That's his whole combat experience.

"Plot and atmosphere". Just rip out the eye.

And, as I said earlier, the location surrounding this movie story.

By the way. I noticed that the creators of the series don't like their actresses at all!!!

@Citokos: If you don't like it, don't look. There are characters here, an unusual location, a plot, an intrigue.
In the boredom about bifidobacteria, there is only a boring narrative as long as a gut, how ugly dudes opened an ancient network of portals for fucking seasons, and how this did not lead to anything interesting. Against this background, I'd rather look at even a Foundation with Well-Mannered Wolves.

So much whining in the comments of this series, so many quibbles, don't like it , don't look , some physicists gathered and they don't like AI 🤣 how many seasons did the Expansion have? The pilot in general was so terrible that I only mastered it the third time and in the end I was completely delighted with the Expansion! I think Lighthouse 23 is worth watching 👍

I haven't watched many TV series with Hidi, it's in the genre of fiction, at least two. I wonder what Aster will have to experience while at the lighthouse. And probably Halan, it will not be just like that with her, perhaps some adventures are waiting for him too, despite the fact that everything rests on one lighthouse.

Truly, I tell you, they are overeager. A lot of technical stuff, a great script, good actors, what are you missing? Judging by the estimates, I thought it would be another stupid melodrama supposedly about space, but here it's quite solid SF, what are you doing?
I don't know what could be further such that here the score is below three, and on imdibi below six.
