    S1 was so close to the original books character that I fell in love with the depth and detail put into the plots and counter plots as S1 really gave depth to the "Meths" and James Purefoy was simply stunning in the roll and totally believable. I found it hard to fault the storytelling from the hard street life to the opulence of the mega rich, or even down to the tech details Cyberpunk at its best by far. As for Joel Kinnaman seemed to embrace the roll with his facial expressions and his emergence with the characters inner struggles, cannot fault it in anyway as he made the world believable in so many ways.
    S2 imo it was like watching a cyberpunk version of blade ... very little emotion with railroad storytelling that came out 100% vanilla, no depth, no visual experience, very little if any depth of emotion even when the story screamed for it. I expected so much more from Anthony Mackie as he is a class actor. All in all I could scream my disappointment at the lack of depth and detail and very little plot lines to sink my teeth into after S1's story line set such a high standard and left so much open for a director to explore. Such a shame.
    This video to me encapsulates all I love about the Altered Carbon concept and characters inner struggles. It is a lovely piece of work and I thank you for the share :)

      Tony Mackie is overrated, he plays all his characters the same way, boring, bland, emotionless. Watch "Synchornic" - he's just as flat there, where he should really be displaying a lot of heavy emoting.

      In the very conversation that he says that he also admits that to not love is to be less than human, Takeshi didnt relinquish his love he pulled himself together and overcame rather than wallowing in failure.

    I keep coming back to this video. Season one was a better sequel to blade runner than the actual sequel was. It took that world and expanded on what it could be, as opposed to the sequel where it felt like it was more of the same. Both are good but I feel like altered carbon is what all cyberpunk shows/movies/videogames should strive to be

    Love the music & this video--it really captures the essence of Kovacs! Takeshi Kovacs, in Kinnaman’s rendition, is such a beautiful and broken man, a suicidal maniac with a singular force of will, devotion & self-abandonment carried with the same amount of intensity, capable of extreme violence and the most tender emotions. Loving it!

The cyberpunk theme, Joel Kinnaman’s portrayal, this song as well, encapsulates everything i love about this show and its lore and its charm. I come back to this video every now and then and it just takes me away from this world and into takeshis POV for 3 minutes. Good job on the MV. And thanks for the good work
