    Yay!!! I finally managed to make a video with The Expanse!! And I'm not surprised that it is with my fav character :D
    I'm deeply in love with the show, I hope I'll get inspired to make more videos with it.
    Honestly I will love to make a video for each one of the main characters, they all are great! If I'm lucky this one won't be my last edit with the show.
    Thank you Anja for all the previewing, all the help and well... everything! You know your support means the world to me and it makes the editing process way better.
    Also thanks to voordeel for introducing me to the song and to lookingforastar for inspiring me as always :')

    "How many people have you killed?"
    "I'm not sure."
    "You're not sure?"
    "Well, I'm not a homicidal maniac."
    I love that response from Amos. In his mind knowing how many people he had killed would be a sign that he did it for fun, to keep score. Amos just kills people when he thinks he has to.

Due to his childhood he's become a sociopath, but he's also chosen to follow people that he believes are about to make the world better, or that they're valueable. He didn't become a serial killer, or a "homocidal manica", like some other sociopaths become. He's not a psychopath, he wasn't born without emotions, he just got rid of them because of how he grew up, he makes decisions based on logic and morals.

      No he's not. It's not really clear who or what he is is loyal to, other than himself. His figuring that out for himself is his storyline throughout the show and that's why he's a good character. If he were just your standard "badass" character who loves his friends, well, that would be boring.

      Exactly right. And when he does care - like about the current crew bc they have been loyal and understanding of him. Bang!!! Don't do that - he will punish you if you hurt his friends - even if on accident. More than once he has threatened people with a beating - he is very clear. If you go the next step and threaten him or his friends - then there is no quarter... its all in and probably your fault; you were warned (e.g. talking to the reporter crew).

    AMOS IS NOT A PSYCHOPATH. It bothers me deeply that many people label him as such.
    When Amos chose to kill Dr. Strickland to prevent Prax from having to do the deed, he proved he was not a psychopath. The act was selfless and done out of pure love for Prax. In fact, his entire relationship with Prax indicated that he feels deep empathy for those he cares about. Also, when he flirted with the idea of having his brain adjusted to prevent him from feeling said empathy for others, as well as guilt due to some of his choices, this demonstrated (via excellent writing-- show, don't tell) that Amos does indeed feel strongly. It hurts him when those he loves doesn't place their trust in him. From the few snippets provided to us through the episodes, it's clear that his childhood taught him the worse of human nature and therefore he places little value on human life, except for the lives of those he loves. This lesson scarred him deeply, so deeply that he fractured mentally. This fracturing likely caused extreme compartmentalization and such a state can sometimes mimic antisocial personality disorder.
    The evidence points to Amos being a seriously damaged man. A complex one. And one who is not a psychopath.
    The writers of Expanse are brilliant. One needs to pay attention to another character to understand Amos' plight. Miller stated: “I spent a lifetime watching the evil shit people did to each other. Nothing got to me anymore. But, Julie, I wake up some nights and I see her standing right there. I know it’s bullshit, but she’s right there. She takes my hand and she tells me, ‘You belong with me.’” Amos is an overpowered version of Miller. Both men kill without compunction and have little regard for most humans, but they love deeply and truly. Amos' Julie are Naomi, Holden, Alex and Prax.

    • @BouncingTribbles
      @BouncingTribbles 8 місяців тому +1

      Compartmentalization is terrifying, it feels like you don't actually know yourself. It took me 10 years to figure out how to dig those boxes out and I've spent the last 10 years unpacking my childhood. I've finally reached the point where I just have a couple of "blank" spots that make me cry when I poke them to hard. Amos feels like a future I might have had if I'd been truly put through the churn, and it hadn't ended. I'm lucky I had the help I needed, and that the churn is just starting for real now.

      When he told Prax, "you're not that guy..." that showed great compassion for him. Amos knew that if Prax shot the doc in cold blood, he would regret it for the rest of his life and that's why he relieved him of that responsibility. Then, gave the doc the bad news with his classic Amos line, "I am that guy!"

    You can't be as honest as Amos and expect to survive, unless you're Amos and weaponized it in order to survive. Or should I say Timmy.

    To me, Amos had that lone wolf mentality - do what you need to , to survive. But he realizes the strength of a wolf is in the pack. He's found his wolf pack - and you better not fuck with anyone in that pack.

    I have no idea what's going on but as always your editing speaks for itself and your love for whatever you're vidding shines through and this is no exception, the glitch effect just really enhances that feeling of feeling out of place and disjointed from everything around you which I feel is what this character, who I know nothing about, feels! Your editing is always so flawless and you use these kind of effects to perfection and knowing when to use them and when to hold back on them. Absolutely epic and wonderful.

    Honestly....Amos is better in the show. Wes Chatham has embraced that character like Heath Ledger to the Joker. He's up there with Omar Little from The Wire.
    Also....you should totally do a video for each character. This is outstanding...particularly with the Win10 spatial sound & enhancements for headphones.

    A wonderful, complex SCIFI adventure. Great FX, of course, but thank everything that the creators wanted most of it character driven, and they did one of the finest casting jobs for the characters I've seen in a show. Amos I did not like at 1st, thought he was going to be disposable muscle gone halfway through the 1st season. By the start of S3, aided by Wes Chapman nailing the role and all the strength and foibles of Amos, he is my clear favorite. Which is saying a lot given how much I love Drummer, Bobbie Draper, Jules Mao, David Strathairn as Klaes Ashford, Chrisjen Avasarala, Anna, The reveal that he is highly intelligent and often the 1st to understand a situation and what needs to be done, Amos is now the one I tune into the show, to hope the episode has more reveals about Amos and if someone will help mend his mental wounds.

  • @ciCCapROSTi
    @ciCCapROSTi 6 років тому +1

    Great cuts, music and added visual effects. Really brings out the crazy. Amos is the most wonderful character I even encountered on TV, and the worst part is that in the books he is not like that at all. The show presents him as a sociopathic/autistic kid who grew up rough and learned how to be rough, but doesn't really feel like a rough person. He feels dangerous because he is not constantly threatening. Would be prime alpha material if it came as a natural trait, but it's learned behavior.
    And his philosophical musings are so fucking great. When he talks about how the small people like him get crushed, without emotion, matter of fact style, while crushing some other small people, once it's you, once it's me.

    WOW!!! It's like beauty before my eyes, I swear.. You are so creative and inspiring. I've heard things about this show, but I've never actually seen it before. You've made me feel like I've lived a part of it through this video, though - and that's art. That quality is so beautiful (I'm not kidding when I say that this might be the most clearest, crystal-clear perfect video I've ever laid my eyes on.) and your way with all these voice-overs seamlessly playing after one another is magnificent...and those glitch effects are INCREDIBLE! They really add a lot of surrealism to this entire video. I loved the jumble of the text at 0:24, btw!! It's always so satisfying to see a new video from you no matter what the fandom is, and now I'm very interested in adding this show to my watch-list because of this video. Gosh anyways great work yet again, Sara! I hope to see more from you soon! :)

    When I first started The Expanse, I wanted to hold off on watching this video until the show had exposed enough of Amos's backstory. But 3 seasons in and we still don't know a whole lot about his life before the show. It's a credit to your talent that you were able to string together the bits and pieces that we DO get to make this fantastic video. nice work!!

    I'm on my second watchthrough of the series and while I have several favorite characters, Amos remains the most fascinating. You can see it in his face...his eyes.
    It's not that he's an awful person, he doesn't see the world in black/white. He just can't understand why anyone would choose to be good. It baffles him that they would choose to do the right thing and it frustrates him that he can't make those same choices as easily.
    Wes Chatham did an amazing job with this character over the 6 seasons we were given.
