Judgment Day

The movie has clarified some of the confusing elements of the book. The use of video and scientific names such as Newton and Copernicus and Lord was made clear in the film. The stunning first 14 minutes gave us two main issues of the book in such a way that only after did one realize what had happened. Truly a highly intelligent rendering of the book and in this case the movie is better understood and appreciated than reading the books, some 1500 plus pages. The books present blocks of the 400 year history in a somewhat "chopped" fashion. The film has a sequential continuity that is easier to comprehend. Spectacular imagery and visuals. Banned in China, but later encouraged.

I don't know how different it is than book and if the book did a great job in explaining things or how the creators took liberty and changes things.

Still, this ep couldn't be any better. The answer of all questions with a declaration of war is the best conclusion of the book. The visuals are amazing and the storyboarding of this ep is just brilliantly done.

As I said, it is not the best but definitely one of the best ep of the year. The series didn't disappoints especially when compare to recent sci-fi shows.

I like the series so far now and this ep is just unexpectedly better what I haven't expecting.

Genius!

The suspense as the "antagonist" explained the predicament humanity is now up against is simply goosebumps inducing. I think every human who is familiar with the Fermi paradox and the idea that humanity for all intents and purposes could exist in a petri dish, felt seriously uneasy during that sequence. That something, real, is manipulating reality to their own benefit, and that quite literally, we would be unable to stop it.

It's kind of scary, I would put that sequence in the same genre of Horror, because it was just that terrifying as it is something that could very well be real, and the most scary things in the world, are what's real.

This is ironic given the amount of scientific inaccuracies the series has thus portrayed, but this series isn't a science lecture, it's a fictional piece of media. So despite the 2 dimensional characters and other issues, this episode deserves a 10/10 for that sequence alone.

So here we are. The scientists have a way of destroying things with Auggie's invention. It is used to wipe out a mother ship, filled with all manner of persons, including children. The point of this is that these people are a connection to the alien species that is going to invade the planet. But when push comes to shove, the leadership has no clue as to what they are dealing with. The aliens have built and rebuilt, as the woman on the destroyed landscape points out. They need the earth and in order to get it must neutralize it by getting rid of its science. The now unleash that power which is to frighten the earth's population into inactions. The enemy now becomes those who will go after their own people. Very interesting. I'm really surprised at the naysayers who have expressed disdain for a show that is pushing boundaries.

I was all set to comment on how this series peaked at episode three, then I finished watching Judgment Day, and all I have to say is, wow!

This was an incredible, chilling, rollercoaster ride, I wonder if this is going to be the high point, it almost deserves to take that accolade.

Superb, I know it's science fiction, but what a chilling thought, the electricity went off in our region yesterday, only for ten minutes, and there was quite literally panic in the streets, very few can function without tech.

The highlight, that scene on the ship, I have never quite see anything like it, terrifying, but visually spectacular.

You are Bugs...I think I wasn't that on a shirt, I'd wear it.

Even the music was crammed ho for this one, wonderfully dramatic, the visuals also, sublime.

10/10.
