No Whammies!!
I just figured the Dogs were Drones controlled by someone. I think the dogs would've had some speaking mechanism or intelligence if it actually had human thinking.
It might not have been human-level intelligence, but I think it was AI

When the dog was under the tree, it kept going into "Sleep" mode like a computer. Dropping stuff on it caused it to automatically wake up out of sleep mode until its battery ran down. A live human pilot would need to go to sleep himself, unless he handed off his shift to at to another pilot.

Based on the ending I don't think it was full human-level intelligence. The dog pack at the end were all homing in on the explosive tracking device fragments. A real human pilot or human-level AI would simply call his friends and say "Hey, she's over here in this house!"

I'm pretty sure we're supposed to be seeing a "Robot Apocalypse". The Black and White film was meant to make you think of zombie movies like "Night of the Living Dead". Since its a shared universe, I'm thinking of what would have to go wrong to get from "Black Museum" (which covers a timeline of many years and ends up after most of the other episodes) and the future time of Metalhead.

Am I the only one who wasn't really impressed by Black Museum?

:patrice:
It was not very good. Overhyped here for no reason. The mini-stories were lame and the major story was ridiculous even for Black Mirror

The only good part was the twist at the end. But it did have the 2nd best ending of the season, so I still gave it a 6/10.

The acting was atrocious too outside of the daughter

Felt like an updated tales from the crypt plot.

The lead in Episode 3 was even worse than the lead in Episode 1 :damn::damn::damn:


Anybody can get it :damn:


I would create that first world but it would be mostly a sex simulator. Yeah he was pretty nice then what he could have been doing.

I hear what you sayin:sas2: but I couldnt in good conscience. That's just so demonic friend :demonic:




Episode 4 still kinda scary, more like unnerving, but I think it'd be pretty ideal for most people actually. I'd be down af to try/go through that :ehh: ending was wild dumb. That sht would've been more effective if it were different or just ended earlier.

This season is trash so far. I was never a fan of star trek but that episode was decent and kept me interested. That second episode though....I felt like I was watching a lifetime movie about some CAC chick just growing up. What was so special about that episode? Kids grow up, they do stupid shyt. Does the episodes get any better or all they all trash from here on out?

:whew: thank god I spaced this shyt out and didn't go hard and try to win the "I saw all the episodes first" award

I saw USS Callister a few days ago...shyt was :smugbiden:
Saw Arkangel and that shyt was wild thragga :camby:...fukk out of here with that piss poor parenting lifetime drama bullshyt

I skipped to Black Museum via a friends recommendation and left feeling :salute:...I wasn't :leon:....but I was happy with a :salute:

Decided to watch Crocodile, Hang the DJ, and Metalhead today after getting over this 3 day cold :lawd:

Just what the doctor ordered :ohlawd:

Crocodile is a legit quality suspenseful TNT movie....that bytch went :mindblown:

Hang the DJ was fukkn dope :ahh:...reminded me of San Junipero. They really did the best world building in this episode.

Metalhead was :aicmon: though because I'm over the apocalypse genre

Overall I give this season a 8/10. I'd rewatch everything except Arkangel and Metalhead.

Just finished the season. Yeah it was the worst season so far but it still had some good in it.

USS callister 8/10
I thought it was a pretty dope story on npc revenge, but damn dude was a walking L to the very end. Buddy got shytted on constantly in the real world only have some npc murk you lol.

Arkangel trash/10
Like I said before, it was like watching a lifetime movie of CAC problems. I fell asleep when mama CAC saw her daughter snorting lines and I didn't even bother to finish it.

Crocodile 4/10
Nothing to really say about it. Just an overall meh episode

Hang the DJ aka bedwench delight 7/10
I thought it was a pretty good story. Sim Amy body count was hella high

Meathead 3/10
nikka I want my 40min back

Black Museum 9/10
The best episode of this season. Even all the mini stories in this episode was better than the rest of the full episodes we got this season. Plus justice was properly served in the end. I really enjoyed this one a lot.

Overall 2 good episodes, 1 decent one, and 3 trash episodes. It's got a good season if half of the season is garbage.
