It definitely gave me Leftover vibes with the worldbuilding. I love the way Lindelof does it. The background poster of President Redford in the classroom was my favorite
Only watched the first ep when it aired and enjoyed it but I wanted to finally finish the graphic novel before continuing. Finished that last night and just finished rewatching episode 1 now
Enjoyable start. Reallyyy glad I read the comic and am watching this nice and fresh off of that. There were small things I didn’t catch the first time (like Hollis Mason’s book) and I’m sure there’ll be plenty more going forward. Excited to continue
Bunny Colvin! And that graffiti of the embracing couple from the comic. Fun
Guessing Angela was pregnant when she got shot
Angela/Sheriff final moments are p touching
The comic did fun transitions and juxtaposition super well. The movie widely failed at that. So far this has been better at it for sure, I’ve noticed a few good examples already
Jim Beaver! Always great
Speaking of always great, I like this score by Reznor/Ross
Very interested who these kids they’re raising are
Fun idea that the government has to maintain the squid lie and have it pour down every so often. Or just Manhattan is?
I’m really curious about what went down with Rorshach’s journal. If it was published then that spoils the whole ruse. But it had to have been published right?? Since the 7th Cavalry are directly quoting it
Fun stuff with Hooded Justice and denying the Strongman theory
For whatever reason when I watched the first episode back then I thought Crawford could’ve secretly been a 7th Cavalry guy. So it’s interesting that he’s a KKK guy. Same thing it seems! Maybe I was still associating him with his Django role
Clones, how fun
Oh shit. Didn’t see the grandfather twist coming. I wonder which one this guy was, the little kid in the beginning or the baby in the beginning. Not sure if I’m supposed to assume he’s the little kid or not since he has the piece of paper but that could’ve easily been passed on
