Quorthon109 02/20/24 12:54:25 AM #2:	Ive been trying to look for positives and things that I mightve missed but there isnt much. I saw a list detailing how this season is an inverse of the first one and there was some interesting stuff there, but it doesnt save the stilted dialogue, hokey horror imagery, and characters actions/motivations making no damn sense. They had the setting, the Inuit culture to explore, and Jodie Foster + a decent cast.

spanky1 02/21/24 5:47:41 PM #34:	One of the worst writing sins there is is when the author writes something that they think is making the audience feel one way but then in reality the audience actually feels the complete and total opposite feeling. An example of this is at the end of Mass Effect 3, when all the mass relays are destroyed and galactic civilization as we know it is over due to being unable to travel at warp speed any longer, but the final shots are of our crew crashed on a pretty planet all happy and stuff looking into the sunset. Just a total and complete disconnect in feels on what the writer thought they were writing and what the audience is actually feeling. I experienced that with the finale to Night Country. The cleaning ladies were presented as heroic figures, as defenders of truth and justice, when in reality the audience views them as the psychopath mass murderers they are. The cops are complicit, and a horrific crime went down and I'm wondering why this is all being shown as if the good guys are winning.

Just a total and complete disconnect in feels on what the writer thought they were writing and what the audience is actually feeling.I experienced that with the finale to Night Country. The cleaning ladies were presented as heroic figures, as defenders of truth and justice, when in reality the audience views them as the psychopath mass murderers they are. The cops are complicit, and a horrific crime went down and I'm wondering why this is all being shown as if the good guys are winning. It's like bizarro land. </quote> ... Copied to Clipboard!

I see the women as being cold and vengeful rather than psychopathic. The researchers all collectively deciding to murder a woman who set them back a few years is way more psychotic (and silly) to me. Danvers and Navarro letting the women off the hook is in character for them, but having the mystery of the researcher's deaths be ~~the thing~~ we're all wondering about as viewers and then to have it resolve itself like that was really unsatisfying. Danvers herself being satisfied with what happened didn't scream "the good guys won" to me, though. --- http://i.imgur.com/Kjo08.jpg <cite>Quorthon109 posted [p:978968796] in True Detec...
