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.

      Houston Texans... You Suck!!!

      I mean I think its a bit disingenuous to call basically anyone here a casual fan. I don't think the casual fan creates a profile then logs into it, in the offseason, to comments on mundane offseason topics.. I dont think anyone on here would be considered a casual fan. That said, I get your point. My POV is from the player. They sign this contract, move their family because of these contracts. When Clowney came him, we basically had a coming home party for him.  So yeah, I get why we did it and I know that ultimately the owner doesnt 'save' money, but I can feel for the human side of the player, which is why I want them to get all they can while they can.

      My guess is the NBA will either send Flagg back “home” to the Northeast in Brooklyn or Washington, or San Antonio so that they can keep building around Wemby. If I was a betting man I would take the odds on the Spurs. This definitely feels like a #1 pick that they will rig.

      In fairness, she is ensuring she is talked about.  People really aren’t going out there way to bring her up.  It’s some weird poo.  She would end up getting talked about given her actions if she was 40. Bill realizing some of these high end “companions” got a game of their own.  That’s what I don’t think Bill saw coming.
