Anyone else caught the pilot this past week on FX? apparently its set in the x-men universe(although I imagine very loosely). Visuals were great, different from any thing comic book related on TV

 

From what I remember about David Haller in the comics he's Professors X kid and is one of the most powerful mutants in that universe but like we saw in the pilot very mentally unstable..overall thought it was pretty good episode

I thought it was a great pilot.  Pilots usually are iffy, but this hit the mark and was really cool.

Legion is basically an Omega-level mutant, which is the highest.   Potentially one of the most powerful.    I think the show will more more grounded/in its own world though and may not touch on X-men universe or even who is father is.

As someone that went into this show completely blind knowing absolutely nothing about the content, characters or plot line. I have to say when Busker showed up in the second episode after being murdered it made me wonder if she is even real. Is she? I began to question if we're likely viewing an entire world of his own design that exists within his own head.

 A few parts of it definitely left me scratching my head. Our POV is completely unreliable because he is so mentally imbalanced. But it's so well done that I find myself more intrigued than confused. Good show so far.

Busker was shown in a flashback in episode 2, but she is dead in the present, killed by his girlfriend after they switched bodies and she didn't know how to control his powers (accident).

But yeah, we don't know what really is going on, you see stuff that looks like it's decades before but then you see someone using a tablet that looks from the future.

So I'm three episodes in and this show is nothing short of brilliant.

 

Wait until episode 7. You will enjoy the hell out of that one. I liked it so much I watched it twice. Episode 6 is a little difficult to sit through but completely makes up for it in episode 7.

Warning Spoiler Below...

I wonder if Oliver will begin to age now that he is out of his diving suit.

So...I was just re-watching the last episode with a friend of mine and noticed after the credit roll David gets beamed into some kind of 'drone'. WTF is it? And who is that walking out of the hallway in the background? Anyone else catch this?

Ha, yeah, who knows.   Some people think the drone could be one of his personalities, etc.

      Where would the Panthers be if they sat Bryce Young last season?

      By CRA · Posted

      And I’m fine with that.   But, with an impatient owner….that carries high odds of just him employing a new HC in the not distant future.  The “we will see if the scheme that doesn’t fit our #1 overall pick QB works or not” approach seems like a rocky plan for all.  If I was Canales I would give it shot but demanded I need to be able to sign a legit backup QB in case what I was given just doesn’t work and can transition at the end of the year

      That's really unlikely to happen.  The reality is, they are building for what Canales wants to do.  That's what all coaches do.  And if Bryce can't do that, he's another peg that has to be replaced.

      There is nothing unpopular at all about your opinion. How everything played out on the field backs it up. Bryce starts the season with much fanfare, gives the atl game away, and showed anyone who watched that his arm talent was shockingly bad. bad look, so after a few weeks, the team cooks up a fake injury that nobody saw, presumably to decide what direction to go next. Enter Dalton for one game while Bryce is seen walking comfortably on the sideline, smiling and yucking it up like he’s a 5 year vet.  Dalton performs admirably given the circumstances (please no Dalton ve Bryce retort). The contrast between the two was so strong that it’s still debated today. If Dalton’s performance was similar to what Bryce had done up to that point, I truly believe they would have sat Bryce longer, but it wasn’t.  Dalton relied on vet savvy and a better arm. It’s debatable how many games that gets us. Meaningless to fans, but not to players with serious financial incentives on the line.  What it really was, was a ‘young man (see what I did?)’ playing a grown man’s game, who lacked basic fundamentals and essential physical talent, behind a line that was VERY ill suited for the scheme forced on them, WRs who looked completely confused and unmotivated, with a back stabbing coaching staff in give up mode, GM who I wouldn’t trust to organize my cooking utensil drawer and an owner who meets with coaches every week and tells them which plays he likes and which ones he doesn’t.  Bryce doesn’t get a mulligan, but I’m willing to give him a ‘my bad’ from the team. Last season stunk worse than Bigfoot’s di**. It literally can’t get ANY worse than the unwatchable sh** show that was last year.  I have to see a monumental change in his physical ability and overall confidence. I have to see that he found a laser arm, somewhere, in the offseason, or everything else is irrelevant.
