    Agree about Mason Alexander Park. They probably only have less than 10 minutes' total screen time, but they were so memorable. I always wondered how Desire could be effectively translated into live action. How do you portray the literal embodiment of human desire? But Mason absolutely KILLED it. The whole time I just kept on wanting to see more of them.

    What a finale to an absolutely stunning season of television!! Loved your daily release of these videos! Such a delight to see you both experience this journey together.

  • @meteorplum
    @meteorplum 2 роки тому +59

    1. I understand the feeling of the finale feeling "small" but not in a bad way. Arguably, the biggest conflict in the first season is Dream's imprisonment, followed closely by the loss of his tools. The first gets taken care of in ep 1, and the rest are taken care of in eps 3, 4, and 5. Ep 2 explains the stakes of having the Dreaming restored. Dealing with the Vortex is important, but we don't actually know why, beyond the fact that vortices remove the walls between dreams. We see dreamers disappear (dusted? sanded?), but we don't get the sense that they are psychically damaged by this when we encounter them again in the waking world. The real damage seems to be having dreams revealed to other people when that is meant to be kept private.
    So in that sense, Rose's vortex plot is sort of a macguffin on a macguffin. Her search for Jed sucking in Fiddler's Green and The Corinthian is what's more important for Dream, the nominal title character of the series. And The Corinthian being able cause Dream to bleed is both a vortex story point, but also a metaphor on how a "nightmare" has inspired humans to become nightmares themselves, moving what was often limited to dreams into the waking world. Something that I wished could've been delved into by the show, and was better covered in the comics, was all of the different effects in the waking world that Dream's imprisonment caused. We only get Unity as someone who stayed asleep, and the rest of the million people who suffered the "sleepy sickness" stayed faceless. The comics tied the soldiers in WWI suffering shell shock to sleepy sickness, and also implied that various social upheaval in the 20th century were impacted by either Dream's absence or the loose dreams and nightmares wandering the waking world.
    Back in the series, the showdown between Dream and The Corinthian isn't one of direct action or even will. It is a battle of ideas, and it's not obvious that Dream's ideas are "better". Getting Rose to wake up gives power back to Dream and lets him unmake The Corinthian. He battles Corinthian's ideas by removing the serial killers from their dreams. He literally kills their dreams with reality. That is not at all wiz bang, but it was definitely effective.
    2. Without spoiling the rest of the comic, I think it's reasonable to mention that the Sandman is about stories, and also about change. I hesitate to use "growth", because that's a freighted term, but we are given many glimpses into various characters who change, including Dream himself. I look forward to how Gaiman and team further alter story points to make that more focused in future seasons.

    • @JacopoBasanisi
      @JacopoBasanisi Рік тому +5

      Yes. I didn't read the comic, but you can see that the very main character isn't about action and physical power. He's a dream, so everything is about stories and people. So, for example, the ending is about two of the characters and not about punching the corithian away for final fireworks

    @InkyPetrel Рік тому +3

    The casting for this entire series was so perfect, so careful and clever. Lucienne is possibly my favorite character in this adaptation, she was SUCH a strong... not a foil, but like, a balance against Dream in their scenes? I feel that the entire show would have suffered terribly if Lucienne had not been able to match Dream's quiet but powerful performance, but she did, perfectly. That sense of DEEP knowledge and patience, quietly providing the scaffolding for Dream's ethereal menace.
    But you're absolutely right, in the few scenes we saw them in, Mason Alexander Park absolutely KILLED it as Desire. I can't imagine anyone else in that role now. Also, it's SO good to see a nonbinary actor cast as a nonbinary character. A small thing, but gods there is SO LITTLE representation.

    I loved the portrayal of Desire. Out of all the the Endless that appeared this season they were the closest to how the comic portrayed them. Not only was the acting on point, but the costuming for Desire made them look like an outer-worldly being. While I loved the performances of Dream, Death and Despair their costuming really didn't give them that outer-worldly look from the comic, especially when your contrast it with the costuming and effects of the other beings like Lucifer, Mazikeen, Gault, The Corinthian, Fiddler's Green and of course Desire themself.
    Other that those minor gripes about the costuming it was a very faithful adaption of the comics. Can't wait to see Season 2.

    Technically the Corinthian does stab Dream's hand like that in the comics, but it's a no-sell -- Dream just ignores it completely. I think it's largely a balancing act between Dream being an entity of unfathomable power, and at the same time being vulnerable as a person. In the comics, the first half of the series primarily focuses on his power, and the second half on his vulnerability. The Netflix series seems to be taking a more nuanced approach.

    2) where Dream asks Desire if the plan was really to “have me spill family blood with all that would entail”
    3) Dream saying to desire “do you really think you’re strong enough to stand up to me, to dream, to destiny?”

    First, just wanted to say, I don't usually watch reaction videos (unless it involves nail polish, lol), and I truly do not know what made me decide to click on the first video of your ep01 reaction, but I'm glad I did. I really love the dynamic between you 2. Especially with this series. I'm on the 'did not read the comics before watching' side, so I was Clarus when I was watching the show the first time. But loved seeing Nerdy get all excited, nervous, anxious, etc as parts were happening and he knew/thought he knew what was coming up. I did go and read the comics after, as well as continue on into the others. My hot take...I enjoy the show more. Apparently these types of indepth comics/graphic novels, just aren't my thing. For literature, I need novels (ie: Wheel of Time, I really should reread those, it's been a long time), with more description/info given to me so that I can fully submerse my brain. Comics like these just don't have that same ability in the short length they have to have, and rely heavily on the pictures they help guide the storyline. Not to say they aren't great, just not my cup of tea. But the later volumes are certainly getting me excited for what I could expect in future seasons! I'm living for more Desire! Can you say Family Dinner? LOL
    I agree with everything the 2 of you said about this show. It's in my top favourite shows of all time, and if I had been able to be as connected to the Dollhouse half as I was to the Preludes and Nocturnes half, it would probably be number 1. I think I had the same issues as you 2 with connecting with Rose, which made those episodes lack a little for me. However the performances of Dream, Gilbert and The Corinthian kept bringing me back fully. I've watched this twice already, plus your reactions videos, obviously, so almost 3 times.

    Btw another reason why Morpheus couldn't kill Rose is because she's a family member sense she's desires granddaughter and one of the rules is that you must not spill family blood, desires plan was for dream to kill her and break this rule

Nerdy's insightful comment throughout have confirmed my thoughts on watching (it was 20 years since I read it, so my memory was a bit more hazy at times). I'll be back. Subbed.

    I loved the comics as a whole and the tv show as a whole. I'm going to comment on some of the differences between the two.
    1/ They had to decouple these stories from the rest of DC. That's a pity. (ie. Hippolyta was Wonder Woman's daughter.)
    2/ In the comics, Rose's friends in the house are left heavily damaged. This was so much nicer.
    3/ The Corinthian pulled the plot together. Big improvement.
    4/ Details were changed with the Cereal Con - losing a couple of my favourite scenes: the one where Rose is asking about what do people do with breakfast cereal: do they like eating them, do they just keep the empty boxes.... I missed the characters of Smokey and Dog Soup.

    A (not so) brief defense of Rose: you've mentioned in this and previous videos that you found Rose's character sort of flat and that she played the role of a plot device. I had a pretty different reaction to her character, and I think both the character's actions and the actress's portrayal made a lot of sense.
    Rose grew up in a family with significant problems and her parents didn't protect her and Jed from those problems. When the family split up, she was forced to leave Jed behind against her wishes, because she was just a kid herself and had no choice. Her whole character as an adult is about regaining agency in her life and not blindly trusting authority figures around her (e.g., Morpheus or the woman at the foster agency) to have her interests in mind. It doesn't help that she still looks so young and people sometimes treat her as if she's still a kid. (Consider how quickly she corrected Mr. Holdaway when he said she was too young to know the word annulet. That wasn't filler dialogue; that was an example of Rose asserting her own agency against an authority figure treating her, even slightly, like a child.)
    In the show, Rose learns about Morpheus much earlier than she did in the comics. She learns what a vortex is and what she can do, and she learns what Morpheus and the Corinthian each want from her. She constantly pushes back against them both and insists that she has the final say in what she's going to do. Even when she agrees to let Morpheus kill her, it's implied that she is powerful enough now to prevent it if she wanted to. Morpheus isn't using his power to kill her, he's trying to convince her to stop going along with the Corinthian's plan. (Compare this to how he removed Hector from the dreaming, mid-conversation because he didn't feel there was a purpose in convincing the others that it should happen.) It's only because Rose decides to die that Morpheus would be able to kill her.
    A second major aspect of her character is constant presence of chosen family, which is very common among people who have experienced significant family problems. Rose relies heavily on her friends and they rely on her (in 24/7, Judy calls Rose for help and Rose immediately offers to get more involved; later Rose offers to protect Lyta and her baby against Morpheus despite being thrown into a supernatural situation and not really understanding what that entails). Rose opens up very quickly to Hal and the rest of that household and they care about and support each other, all seeking out chosen family for various reasons. This is the same reason Rose is so quick to accept Unity as family, and rushes in to hug her even as Unity is explaining that she had to manipulate them to coming to England because she thought Rose wouldn't have come otherwise.
    I agree that these last three episodes were much more plot-driven than the earlier part of the season, and I get how it could seem like Rose is just there for plot points to bounce off of. But I think she was a fully fleshed out character and extremely well-portrayed consist with that characterization.

    Speaking as a watcher only, (no reading of the book) I think they both exist in terms of what Dream said to Desire. Desire wanted to sacrifice his half-human kin to get Dream to commit this kin-slayer action. Dream knows something will happen and it's inferred that it would be bad, but Dream threatens desire that should they come back and fuck with him again he would go through with the act against desire and be damned the consequences that may follow. My thinking is that there is a severe penalty made by the "Creator" that dream references so that they do not fight but after thousands of years its use as a deterrent for violence has waned.

Last night was the finale of the third season, and my jaw dropped to the floor. I can't remember the last time I felt like this on a finale episode from any series, it was a mix of so many feelings at the same time. Almost no one is reacting to this, but I am sure that with this finale, people will start hearing about it.
