    I’ve never read the novel but I thought the movie felt rushed and probably would’ve been better as a mini-series.
    also, my favorite part is right after they find out Tally betrayed them she’s like “but follow me, I have a plan” & I feel like the only appropriate response to that is “b*tch, what??”

    We re-tell stories the same way that's why I love listening to you discuss things. I watched this Sunday and was moderately entertained. I was trying to understand if these brain lesions were deadly or just destroyed their free will....

    there are 4 books in total, the entire series starting with the sentence "The early summer sky was the colour of cat vomit."/line break/
    it's all Scott westerfields fault.

    They could have gone all out with fun and silly prosthetics but no, let's just give everyone brown hair 🤔

      That part! Like...everyone has brown hair, transformed they're blonde, and then the movie didn't touch on race? Weird choices😂

    Sounds like they didn't do enough to make 'pretty' worse than 'ugly'. As in, "I'm sorry, but the downside of all of this is...?"

      Anyway, I love how we would all love to live a blissfully unaware life surrounded by beauty and luxury. Sign me up, Sign us all up!!! Barefoot homesteading is a xtian cons. dream not ours!!!

    Actually, Joey King was the one who campaigned for the movie to be made at Netflix because she loved the books as a child😅

    Peris looked so much better before, but this just goes to show like people, embrace what you have because uniqueness is so much more beautiful and interesting. All these procedure are taking that away.

    Hey i read these books when i was a preteen/teen! Loved them lol. No idea of they would hold up if i read em today, but i loved that YA dystopian scifi body-horror shit (anyone remember "Unwind?")
    Re: "what are yall talking about these people are gorgeous," thats the whole thing-their beauty standards are so goofy from these uncanny valley surgeries. The way its described in the books is super exaggerated, theyre like.. cartoon-barbie people. Huge eyes, little noses, huge lips, yadda yadda... So anyone normal, unaugmented in this creepy way, is "ugly."
    I dont remember what i did yesterday but i remember these books I read >15 years ago so well wtf.

      I really wish they had leaned more into the intense body mods so it made the movie have more punch.
      Listen, memory is weird. Can I remember yesterday? No. Do I still remember all the weird from the One Fierce Beercoaster album by Bloodhound Gang? Yes😅
