      @@alienmcqueen I feel like if they made this a full story (movie or running series) it’s hard to reach a climax that satisfies everyone. Everybody’s a critic now a days , ending it the way they did let’s your imagination end it where you’d like it to.
      But that’s just my opinion. ❤️definitely loved this season even if it was just 8 episodes.

    The final scene is so amazing. Not only does he experience something for the first time in years (the moments before death) he also has now a finite life with finite experiences, wich makes this experience so much more precious. Everything he and the mother have talked about before.
    He also looks into the light wich is not only a metaphor for dying but also a symbol of enlightenment.
    This episode was easily the best of the bunch. I loved it.

      It also reminded me alot of Zima blue (last episode of the first season). The going back to the roots aproach and giving up a godly status only to enjoy the little things in life. And zima blue was my favourite episode of last season so that fits quite well.

      Thats why I have a problem with this episode:most characters treat it has an "experience".
      "I want to experience motherhood"
      "I wanted to experience something new so I had her"
      This episode even tho it has a good concept falls flat in conveying the message if you actually put the time to digest what they're saying.
      Sure that women wanted to die and pass her legacy to her children but when she says:"I saw so many things...with her everything its new"isnt that a selfish act too?Like living forever?"I had so many experiences I grew tired of them so I want a child because I'll have new ones"
      The MC also fails to demonstrate why in one day he kills them without a second tought and in the other he's mercifull?
      And dont tell me that he was mercifull before because he turned the tablet over or the simbology of the dinossaur because its still a big change in a very short moment.
      This episode falls flat to me because it fails to show a more balanced perspective of the situation,maybe if they had more time but you cant count on "maybes"

    Only thing wrong with this premise though is I think the parents (and the "breeder" class as a whole) would react far more violently than depicted in the episode. They did show that one father almost take out Briggs but almost everyone would be doing that. Basically being on the "Pop Sqaud" wouldn't be a very long career.

    Aside from being deprived of the only thing that gave their meaningless lives "life". The situation they are in is equally horrific.

      So doesn't that make the whole procreation part immoral? Since you are actively bringing someone into a situation where you crave death? Not to mention the fact that procreation is a form of prolonging your life through a genetic extension. It's a sysyphic endeavor with no purpose or logic behind it. Also, I find it funny how this was supposed to highlight how immoral the society was for wanting to end procreation, but it ends up portraying the breeders as narcissistic, bordering on evil, because a) they had the kids as a gift to THEMSELVES, listen to the mother's discourse b) they bring these kids into a horrible world of harsh poverty and suffering c) they risk getting them killed, which is what happens pretty much every single time. How exactly are we supposed to root for them? Both sides of the society are at least equally horrible.

    I am convinced that in the scene where Briggs gets called a child killer, that he was hoping to be killed by the father who grabbed the gun from the other officer. The first few times I watched it, I assumed that Brigg's inaction was part of his aging similar to his difficulty with lighting his cigarette in that same scene; it also felt like it was foreshadowing for the climax. And maybe he was just distracted by his own guilt. But the more I think about it, I realize that Brigg's would have had no issue on the quick draw to protect himself, and we see this later during the climax. I'm sure it could be chalked up to adrenaline from wanting to protect the Mother and Melanie, but it feels like there was an extra layer in that ending that has some pretty big implications for earlier scenes.

    This Short film screams Blade Runner in so many ways. but at the same time, though it is very much a twist in what Blade Runner was, its also a twist thats unique enough to stand on its own. one could even argue this to be a prequel to world of blade runner.

    I find it funny how this was supposed to highlight how immoral the society was for wanting to end procreation, but it ends up portraying the breeders as narcissistic, bordering on evil, because a) they had the kids as a gift to THEMSELVES, listen to the mother's discourse b) they bring these kids into a horrible world of harsh poverty and suffering c) they risk getting them killed, which is what happens pretty much every single time. How exactly are we supposed to root for them? Both sides of the society are at least equally horrible.

    It just goes to show what humans are capable of. When we see atrocities that were committed in the past we always think "That wouldn't have been me", but I think a lot of us are wrong when we think that. When you normalize something so much it's hard to see the inhumanity of it, like owning slaves. Even today we have real examples of this like abortion. Every year we take hundreds of thousands of children's lives, and it's so normalized that you don't have to be bad to do it. It almost makes me wonder if most slave owners were good, I know it's a really weird thought but that's where my logic leads me when I see all of my friends willingly giving up the human lives they've created, because I know that they are all good people.

      I read some manga, ln (from the isekai genre; basically modern humans transported in a fantasy world) where slavery was accepted by the protagonist also by the readers include myself I thought if i was in the stories would i stand against it ? Probably no maybe against abuse but not the slavery itself and most of other reader as well

      The scene at the opera, Briggs makes the comment that you can’t add too many more people to the room if no one leaves. The mothers knows that her death would make room for her daughter . There was “enough” room (resources, shelter, etc.) for the mother to live forever so with her death, her daughter wouldn’t take up the extra space required for both of them to live. They leave the parents alive to live forever but kill the kids because there isn’t enough “room” for everyone when no one dies.
