Minor spoilers ahead.

I have no clue what this show will be like.

I read the trilogy and I'm not really sure that it will translate to the screen very well. The story is absolutely massive and spans from beginning in the Chinese cultural revolution and ends at the literal end of time.

That being said, it is probably my favorite and what I consider the best sci-fi trilogy out there.

Incredibly interesting concepts are explored and it also has a really interesting way of telling the story. It's not just about one guy saving the whole universe. It catalogs all of civilization's attempts at coming together and protecting humanity from an alien threat. And it also goes into all of the issues that humanity runs into while trying to work together, while also spanning across thousands of years.

It's a really fantastic series and I would highly recommend it to just about anyone with an intellectual interest in humanity's future.

It's a big statement to say, but this book changed my outlook on humanity and globalism.

Fuck this company. Fuck these ghouls making this decision.

This is easily the most badass form of piracy I've ever seen. The right kind of rebellion.

Ah yes. Bigger, better, more deadly weapons will definitely help reduce deaths.

It's all just lining the pockets of weapons manufacturers.

Maintaining the status quo in the face of looming danger does not make you a great president.

The best thing about Biden is that he is not Trump.

Also we're not only supporting a genocide, we're footing the bill.

For the love of god, please don't. You're just making them hornier.

Exactly. Why do these articles also act like the consumer is at fault and not the giant corporations selling these things?

Lmao this has got to be the most misplaced anger ever. You're mad at people that don't even make minimum wage aren't paying taxes on the maybe $35k a year? How about the billionaires that basically don't pay taxes? Maybe we should deal with that first.

Maybe we'll have that kind of technology in the future.

If it's so difficult, then why was Google able to find the answer to questions exactly like this 6+ years ago?

That was why everyone switched to Google. The search engine just worked.

And frankly a large portion of your post is just incorrect. What you've described is how a very bad programmer would build a search engine. It's overly complicated and requires too much data.

Yeah, like what the fuck? He got Rockstar with a goddamn phone and a Firestick? Dude must be a genius.

Sounds like the origin story of a comic book character.

As long as it's an Ultra Premium Design

Oh my god. Just write a new story with new characters. Why does everything have to be a shitty sequel?

I can't wait for modern "film" to go under. Big movie studios haven't been producing movies worth watching or remembering in a long time.
