The narrator and music are hands down awful.

mine too. their problem was: the chance from simulation to reality was to havy. with a potty way of convergence, and information about their kind and social structures it would have worked out better

Agree, if the alien wanted Tom Tom be dead It had all the time it wanted, It Simply show Mercy instead for a guy Who happen to be in the wrong Place at the wrong time and gives him a good time before he Will eventually die

That's the point that this alien truly humanely cares. Even in original story Thom knows and recognizes that this is a creature that cares for lost souls... But still seeing the reality makes him lose his mind. The episode absolutely shown the amazigness of story by giving image to alien and the beyond place and the ship. Story reveals that he maybe traveled a decade hard to say but on Earth 150 years passed and even if he could figure out a journey back it would take also 150 years. In original storyThom is married and he cheats on his wife with Greta and that's when she reveals more truth to him. This alien absolutely has a human brain ability and understands social clues so complex not all humans understand - "Fuck you." "Yeah Thom you did, that's the point. That's how I knew Katerina couldn't have meant that much to you." Only then she reveals he is not in Saumlaki station. This alien also fully understands physiology of different alien species, space travel.... Its an alien like we never had in cinema. And story reveals that this place is indeed where many ships were stranded but Blue Goose isn't another ship- it's the first HUMAN ship to be stranded there. In last sentence, before he loses his mind and she resets him again, it's said: "And in the center a matriarchial chamber (...) in which lived something that wanted nothing more but to care for the lost souls." There are as many layers to this story as there are to Dune books. Incredible. But still in my opinion number three. Number one episode was Swarm. That was genius and even more horrifying than Greta. It was essentially showing humanity meet its ender. "Intelligence is not a winning survival trait". We keep forgetting that as a species. You can't fuck with alien that can create any creature to fulfill any tasks it wants including ability to copy humans but stronger and opposing humanity to finish humanity. An organism that can look at a human and decide if it needs to develop any point of humanitys evolution to fulfill some relevant task, from one cell organism to homo erectus. And number two episode is with the giant crab. Because of how main character handles the whole situation, manipulates people to do a good deed to save countless lives.

lol this is just a different way a spider eats thats all, and ships are just insects to its huge web, this spider is beyond drinking blood, it feeds off of feelings and memories the body is consumed of life then moves on to the next one. Tom is the last one of his crew! And that spider who i can imagine doesnt get many visitors.... likes to play with her meals!

@@Stadt101 That is definitely another way to look at it. Honestly, it is much scarier if the space spider is merely playing with its food.

mine too. their problem was: the chance from simulation to reality was to havy. with a potty way of convergence, and information about their kind and social structures it would have worked out better.

Omg so true..I loved it.

@@Dayrador it seems like there IS no 'society" the spider alien was telling the truth it ended up there by accident like everyone else it turned the asteriod into its home and merely incases fellowships who enter the same anomaly there is no alien of its kind other then itself just like the human crew its likely why it takes care of aliens so desperatly because its entirly alone.

@@Dayrador I feel more info abt them wpuldve taken out quite a bit of the horror element. It seems highly lovecraftian yk fear of the unkown

​@@jedicraftmaster2426I got the vibe instantly that they planned on eating them

i found it grate. at the First, i think: it gives a Problem with chance back, because she was to deep in the Creature. "Sunny IS THE Creature" is much better

Actually, sunny is a human who had her memory transferred to the monster.

@@okhaeadeleye5313mind, not just her memories. The story is set in Peter F. Hamilton’s Night’s Dawn universe, where mind uploading is commonplace.

@@fanghur yeah. I meant her mind. Thanks for correcting that

@@okhaeadeleye5313 Though in fairness, whether it truly is a person's mind that is 'uploaded' or whether it is merely copied is a plot point in the actual books, so you aren't necessarily wrong.

Plus to me the main protagonist looks like Lovecraft himself Just with glasses, and the fact the he talks about writing a story about What he just saw is to me a confermation of that

I wanted more of that story. I was very happy with how it ended but just like with some of the other stories it left me wanting more because of how good it was.

yeah the white guy who insist on poking around in other peoples places

Definitely agree with you on that.

Marvelous videos should definitely do an episode on that. Liquid television would be a great topic.

Love death and robots is heavy metal they just couldnt name it that after netflix bought it check the story its pretty crazy

Vh1 did liquid television

@@mikecrab8755 It was MTV. I was there...

Yea I hated his explanation of the episode it just bugged me so bad which is why I came to the comment section😂🤦🏾‍♂️

This! 👌👌

There's no "I'd say" the aliens are good, that's the point.

From what the creators have said the alien was benevolent . It cared for the people who were lost as best it could but had no way to repair their ships. Given the horror of the situation and the alienness of Greta it understood most would not be able to cope.

The alien Just gives to all the people Who happen to be there a last good time before they eventually die, of the alien wanted to kill Tom It had all the time to do so

No he's not, he's a mediocre writer that spent the second half of his life taking everyone to court for pathetic reasons.

Harlan is great. Have you heard the audio book of I have no mouth but I must scream? Narrated by the man himself. You can feel the hate of AM when narrated by the author.

absolute TOSH, indicative of that absurd binary thinking need for "the greatest" this or "the greatest" whosits. he was a pretty fair hand no doubt about it but actually his GREATEST achievement(s) may very well have been his mentorship(s) & cultivation(s) of non-white writers in the genres of dystopian, speculative & 'hard' sci-fi, not the least of whom was octavia butler. as for ellison being "the greatest", yeah sure, as if philip k. dick, asimov, heinlein, bradbury, the strugatsky brothers, ursula k. le guin, stanislaw lem & all the other ridiculously talented writers did not exist. there is no "the greatest" here but actually an embarrassment of riches. expand your reach (considerably) brohim, & you will (hopefully) be richly rewarded.

@@sneakyking truly one of the most unnerving, if not frightening, short stories ever penned, whether read by the author or oneself. amazing that no one has ever brought it to the screen yet rubbish like "the tomorrow war" gets money shoveled at it. perhaps it's my aversion to the 'actor' chris pratt though.

Aquila Rift might be my favorite episode

Once you realize the metaphore for what Greta is, you would sleep peacefully.

Same

Wut? you "actually like love death and robots"? so does everyone Dumbass. that's the point of the video

@@cannedbollocks I grew up with the Twilight Zone and other creepy shows like that. This is just the animated version.

@@domomitsune5920 uh… k? So what? How does that in any way connect to my comment?

Same

Season 3 was already approved before season 2 came out, they're already working on it.

Might be that was big miss opportunity right there

Beyond the Aquila Rift is a masterpiece once you realize the meaning and symbolism behind all that... I keept watching this ep several times for two fkg years, only when i read the original stroy from Alastair Reynolds i finally realized what was this was all about. I perfectly MATCH the core theme of the first season wich is LOVE! In the case of BAR, is UNIVERSAL LOVE (the Virgin Mary statue is the key in the ep.)

I thought I'm the only one who caught that... I love the series but they missed too many of the details.

No Yodes you’re not the only one who thought it familiar but I couldn’t put my finger on it until you mentioned Stephen King. Drac’s cat aversion came as no surprise to me either. Are we the only ones who read anymore?

@@Virvum_Juggernautinto the tall grass is probably one of King's lesser known stories so people may not be fully aware of it. Only reason I can think of. Funny thing is into the tall grass was done in live action and released on Netflix.

@@Virvum_Juggernaut there is actually NO (direct) connection in any acknowledged, 'legitimate' vampiric lore between vampires & cats; if you found something please post us a link. otherwise, no, you're not "the only ones who read anymore". laughable tosh, but you go girl.

Yoooo me too

Plot twists!

just watched "jibaro" again & STILL couldn't believe my eyes.

The giant episode is boring as fuck

The one where all them farmers wit them mecha machines
