[hood17]

Yo next Sunday is going to be.....WOW!

Still letting the episode sink in but I feel...dissatisfied?

They really went all in on fully portraying Dr. Manhattan and I thought Yahya in blue face looked trash AF. Kinda ruined it for me.

 

[masagipatron]

Wow. The end of "Superheroes". The dawn of "Supervillains"?

 

[RustyShackleford]

I need to go pop a baby aspirin to get my blood pressure down.

Black Bran Stark prediction better only be about the fight that happened and not the upcoming events. My soul ain't gonna be able to handle the MAGA Kavalry winning.

HBO is not shelling out WB Pictures money for the CGI

 

[a-friend]

Bruh, I stoppped watching this about episode 3.
I couldn't get into it.

I just watched episode 8.
That is some absolutely exceptional writing.
Might be a top5 Episode, ALL TIME>
HOly ****.

@ Lindelof explaining everything to the tee while copying the doc Manhattan simultaneous perception of time format.

Yeah kinda his thing and he said he took it from Watchmen. I remember when we realized Lost was doing flash forwards how dope it was.

This ep was the most similar to the comic to me.

Manhattan did this simultaneous time travel narration and it really brought a unique take on the story and character.

The scenes with Angela and Ozy were so good.

 

[ALNotSure]

I think the Trump card is OZY. He’s just a damn genius. Gonna save the day again.

Dr.Manhattan was dope. Just DEEP thought provoking stuff the entire episode.

And Regina King needs an Emmy. She killed this role.

Low-key its a bit unfair. She's been on a crazy run. Tv to movies.

Since American Crime to now.

 

[Mark Antony]

Yeah it's like she's locked in.

 

[thegrandpuba26]

Every Sunday.

 

[osh kosh bosh]

Give Damon his flowers man.

Dude had the stones to update a legendary canonical piece of ****ing fiction and somehow managed to improve it.



Be like a writer saying you know what, here's my moby **** sequel, or my Macbeth part 2 electric boogaloo.

 

[tego calderon el abayarde]

Me thinks Blue Manta is gon b aight. Like when Adrian tried him in the past.
I understand they didn't want to CGI him but dude looked weird in that makeup.
Great episode tho.

 

[masagipatron]

Ozy will save the day and kill millions of people. Crazy that the show is about to end.

 

[WASPS ANDD ASPS]

Ill excuse the makeup cuz im HAPPY that they kept Yahya as the actor.

Woulda been pissed if they woulda changed to a white dude.....which may happen eventually but still.......

 

[Master Zik]

I want to say it was definitely a white dude when they were obscuring his face most of the episode especially with the voice change.

 

[youngwolf]

Just a heads up, there's a post-credits scene. Only reason I know is because I was in a rush to get a load in the washer and left the TV on. Came back to voices.

And no, no other episode has a post-credits scene.

 

[tay1]

Me the whole time while watching this episode. Now this was some great ****

 

[whoisthisguy]

Anybody notice next weeks episode said “Season Finale” thought it was a one season and done show?

Unless they are keepin it open for Damon & co. To come back when they have a story to tell.

 

[henz0]

Episode was fire

 

[kingkoopa]

Look like they added some girth to Mr. Manhattan from the movies.

There's no plan for it, but always gotta leave the door open.

 

[harlemtothebronx]

They’re definitely leaving it open, and I don’t think Damon has absolutely said he wouldn’t do a season two, just that this story is contained in one season. Maybe Damon could guide the series from more of a producer role if he doesn’t want to be as hands on.

That’s me being optimistic. I’d be cool with this ending after one season.

Whats the consensus. Are people happy with how some of this stuff ties together. What questions are still outstanding for the finale?

Dr. M with the glizzy on full display. Excalibur out all crazy.

Loved last nights episode. Can’t wait to see how they tie it up next week.
