s07e06 — USS Callister: Into Infinity

@MoonRine: I don't recall, but was there a sequel about Waldo?

@densto: you will be surprised, but our opinions do not contradict each other. The pre-Netflix era was much more evil, cynical, and holistic. But! Episodes in which there was a place for a happy ending (among many other advantages) are closer to me. But these episodes were released already at the time of the colorful tent that the show turned into under the strict supervision of Netflix.

@IronFOX: And I don't think it's a happy ending. And I don't think that a happy ending is a factor in considering a work of high quality. The only thing I don't like is when the ending is deliberately sad, artificially made that way. But there was almost no such thing in the black mirror.

@densto: What makes Episode 6 a medium-level action movie I don't understand? As for me, this series is very much in the style of black mirror, a direct continuation of the original series, very consistent, I have no questions, it's really an action game rather not in the style of Marvel, but just in the style of Star Trek, and it's also well made, with a vibe of the original and obviously strongly inspired especially by the original 66.

Black Mirror is primarily dystopia and science fiction. What is dystopia? An image of a society of the future where everything is bad, despite the apparent system of order.
signs of dystopia:
- total control (government, corporations, technology)
- suppression of individual freedom
- the illusion of happiness or security
- degradation of morality and humanity

This is exactly what the USS Callister describes.

about episode 4 of season 7.
why is it a black mirror. First of all, the series reminds me a lot of Hated in the Nation, vibe is very similar, open ending and so on, but if we look at the series in more detail, then this is a series of Technology with consequences, very much in the spirit of black mirror, some technology turns out to be the cause of disaster, while another plus in the piggy bank is that this black mirror is an open ending It is unclear whether this technology really saved humanity or whether the creatures simply destroyed the world by taking revenge on humans. Well, I don't think this episode is the best of the season, but it's very characteristic of black mirror, I haven't seen anything like it since season 4.

@luvrok: The black mirror style is a frighteningly realistic depiction of the society of the future, which you can project even onto the present. In the 4th and 6th episodes of the 7th season, there is no realism, the technology is not fully developed, there are a lot of delusional moments from the point of view of science and common sense, so it can not seriously frighten, you don't believe in it, that's all

@densto: You're the only one writing nonsense here, no specifics, just general words. I will only answer the frighteningly realistic portrayal of the society of the future — this does not apply to all episodes of Black Mirror. For example, "Brandashmyg" showed the past, like many other episodes, introducing some ideas in the style of "Black Mirror". The fourth episode is similar to "Hated in the Nation", one of the best episodes of the series — you didn't fend it off in any way.

What can I talk to you about if it's like you haven't even read my answer and you've written the same thing over and over again? Zero specifics.

@_Lemon_: Well, yes, such a simple text can only be obtained through the generation of a neural network.

@myauser: they disliked and blocked it)) the neural network, of course, wouldn't be offended out of the blue)

@densto: great.

@myauser: then why do you like this series if most of the episodes in it are not like that?

@justme: and where was I drinking) I just expressed my joy that many people, like me, got to know the series when it was still for geeks.)

@Paramelion: you replied to a comment where a person writes that the series has lost its feature and has slipped and blames the transition to another platform for this. It seemed to me that your comment has the subtext "the series was good before the transition to Netflix." If this is not the case, soryan

I disagree about geeks. The series was and remains for a wide audience to show the horrors of excessive use of technology. Personally, I still get cold feet from the Bryce Dallas Howard episode, where everyone liked each other and the value of a person was reduced to them. Reality is very similar and not only for geeks

@justme: I specifically put it in quotation marks, because only a few people knew about it literally before switching to netflix, which means that it was for geeks. Geeks in this case are a narrow circle of people who like a topic like in this series, because it is tied to technology.

@Poilinb13: tommyinnit и dantdm, летсплееры

and I would like this one) apparently it is the most popular, that's why it was chosen.

@Hidji: in what kind of reality is it possible to copy memories through DNA? It can't be that the game didn't have backups. How can the brain make phone calls without a round thing?

@ruluu: Well hello). Any variation on the theme of technology development is sayfai. About most of the things you're used to now, 60 years ago, you could say exactly the same thing. And fantasy is about wizards or elves and dwarves, you should know such things.

@Hidji: I don't know what you mean, but for me, fiction is something possible in reality, fantasy is impossible.

@ruluu: then for you, 99% of fantasy films are fantasy))). You should not use your vision to correct the canonical division of genres.

@ruluu: I agree, science fiction is something with a scientific basis, but here we are just calling from the game on the phone. Marvel was also science fiction back then)

@ruluu: in the phrase "science fiction" as a genre, the emphasis should be on the word "fiction". And the scientific here is simply opposed to the mystical.
Science fiction does not allow the existence of supernatural elements, and fantasy relies on them. That's the whole difference. Do not imagine that fictions in the genre of science FICTION should be strictly achievable and explained in detail.

@densto: A characteristic feature of science fiction is the presence of a fantastic assumption about what the world would be like under certain conditions. This is the CZ.
The laws of the fantasy world are presented as a given, without any explanation. It's already Marvel.

@analemma: calls from the game to the phone are also presented as a given. "Scientific" so there must be at least some scientific justification. Relatively speaking, the 2 series about parallel universes is just unfounded fiction. And the Dark Matter series on the same topic is already an attempt to build on scientific postulates.

@Nanyamaslova: благодарю))

@luv_sh: No, this is a closed, safe universe, and he finally mocked her and the team by combining her two wishes.

@luv_sh: I think it wasn't a glitch, but option number 3, on the third floppy disk, and she inserted it eventually.

@luv_sh: The team initially called because it was on a computer, i.e. in a digital world with internet access.

But how do they ring from the brain? Is her brain always connected to the Internet now?
After all, these minds were uploaded to Nannet via the wires of the hospital indicators of her condition. When she cut them off, what happened next? Nannette's two minds should have merged and she would have lived as a human being. And how are digital copies of the team supported?

@PianoOnTheLake: So Nanette is a TV.

@Stalker_inc: You can't order a TV program yet.

@Mr_Knight: Ha, there's the premiere of the movie Reverie Hotel, and something about the corporation from the first episode.

@analemma: But the scene with the Daly clone seems to be designed to prove that people don't change much...
maybe the Walton clone will show itself again.

@PianoOnTheLake: If you're talking about his inclinations, they were inherent in the original before the clone was created. This is just shown closer to reality than if they had shown that he had become a sick sadist after splitting up over the past five years. And no one treated him.

@analemma: Is he Daly or is he Walton? ^^

@PianoOnTheLake: in this case, I wrote about Daly and his inclinations.

@analemma: Well, Walton's inclinations have always been so-so. Maybe the clone realized better that clones are also people, but the original doesn't care about people either. It is likely that the clone pretends to be a harmless crank only out of necessity and at first, and then at least undermines the whole team (fortunately, Nannet is not always with them anymore).

@densto: I was reminded of the chase from the girl in pink, and the final one from the Spy Kids 3 Starships!

@Hidji: The gatherings of the ship's crew in their captain's head reminded them of the Black Museum, where her mother was also sitting in the girl's head. And before that, in the same season, there seemed to be a separate episode about this technology. It's been a long time, damn it, the details are fading from memory.

@PianoOnTheLake: Do you think Netflix might try to bring back the days when two men could hug in the frame and not be bullied or made fun of with the phrase "Ugh, homo!"?

@Hidji: I wish I could, but for now it's all just banter about those times. Although he is quite friendly.

@SergeiH: Season 5, episode 3, where they decided to replace the singer with a virtual avatar

@Hidji: if they can take out loans, then they can operate
The fact that they do not have an ID, but have an account for loans is again a separate issue.
And so even the director alone survived on the planet, I think a group with a ship Within the framework of a populated planet can find a living without robbery, but for people to voluntarily give money.

@Slimov: you'd think he was making money alone.) He ate local animals and hammered a pebble, literally and figuratively, all overThey obviously don't want the same thing.

@Hidji: so what does earning have to do with it, if we're talking about security, get stuck on a comfortable planet and live in peace, in fact, they would have to do it in a separate universe anyway, loans are not needed there, because you can't buy anything.
By the way, why he ate these animals is not very clear, there seems to be no feeling of hunger, and if it is prescribed, they will starve to death in the heroine's head.

@Slimov: agree. If you think about it, there are a lot of inconsistencies in the sequel.
I watched the episode from season 4 first, it seems like everything is more logical (at first glance)

@berion87: He would have appreciated it.
