i'm only on episode 2 so maybe this is silly but something about this season already feels off? I feel like I should love it and anthony mackie is killing it so far but I honestly got bored and turned it off. 

 

maybe it picks up?

So Im a solid Anthony Mackie hater.  Didnt like him in anything.  Full stop.

I was wrong.  I was dubious to say the least when it was announced that he would be the new Takeshi. He didnt have the subtelty to pull it of. 

In season 1 it took me a few episodes to buy into Kinneman, but I was on board from ep1 with Mackie.  He was able to capture the essence that Joel put into Kovacs in a way that I didnt think he was capable of.  I could see the "same" character behind different eyes.

 

Good stuff.

 

Different from the Morgan trilogy but fuging solid story telling and world building.

 

Cant wait for Season 3

Wait, so I need to give this show a shot?

Dude. I am not a TV watcher or binge watcher. I’d rather be reading or playing video games. Altered Carbon is the fuging poo. It is my favorite show I have seen in a long loooooong time. It’s just amazin and Joel Kinnaman is a great actor.

I am so mad he is not in the show anymore and I really really really hope they don’t make more of an action show with less story and a ‘cool, hip, ghetto’ dude as the main character. The previews looked that way but maybe not. I’ll definitely give it a shot. Apparently that was the directors vision and each season will be a new actor playing the same role of Kovac in each season.

Other great shows:

Bloodline

Ozarks

Dublin Murders 

Peaky Blinders (though it’s time for it to end)

The Killing (great beginning, not so great ending)

Gonna watch it soon.
 

I’m really pissed at the show runner myself for not doing it according to the second book. Ya ya way to much for their budget? Then split it into two seasons and accomplish Book 2.

Hell even do it slightly differently on another world but the fact they went back to Harlan’s World really rubs me the wrong way. I knew it was coming though from the changes made in season one.

Book three is Harlan’s world. It is the best book in the series. I’m really worried we aren’t going to see it in all it’s glory. 

I do love Anthony Mackie as the new sleeve choice. I was really hoping to see him on Sanction IV. 

A thing I think a lot of people are pissed about is the fact Joel isn’t back. They don’t understand how things in that universe work. Even if he went back to earth there is almost no chance it’d be the Joel sleeve this time.

That’s how this universe works. The show runner fuged it up though from what I understand so far. I Haven’t watched it yet so I don’t know where Kovacs ends up. But I’m worried they aren’t going to sleeve flip next season since he’s on Harlan’s world already.

      New Huddle FAQ

      By Zod · Posted

      Hello there.  We are rolling out a complete overhaul of the Huddle. Why: Frankly this site is so old the database and antiquated software has gotten unmanageable. There is not much we can do to fix anything anymore. The new site is wired for the future including getting back in the app stores.    When:  Hopefully by early July so that we can test and recover things. After the migrations we will still have access to the old site behind the scenes to bring over anything we missed.    Wait, will I lose anything?  We are only bringing over topics and posts from the past calendar year. The tinderbox is being set on fire and rolled off a cliff. All it ever did was made this place feel horrible all while changing approximately 0 minds in 20 years.  The new site will only have 4 forums to keep this joint Carolina team sports focused. Panthers, Hornets, Charlotte FC, Hurricanes.    Improved Moderation  This is a clean slate for us, as such if you are a problematic member (you know who you are) that enjoys getting banned and coming back, we aim to make it much more difficult for you. However, upon the move your slate is clean. Take advantage of it.  We would love to get this place back to what it used to be. Nice folks with friendly banter centered around Carolina sports. We will be using the BAN HAMMER liberally to rid this place of people who aren't interested in that or try to drag the new site back into the gutter.   New Features With new tech comes new features we will be rolling out over the rest of the year.    What about the damn ads?  Fewer and less problematic ads. Again, new tech allows for this. Without ads this place gets shut down.    What if I can't login?  If you can't login due to not being able to reset your password from the login screen, email [email protected] with your username and we will get you squared away.    Let me know if you have any specific questions.
