Is this show on anyone's "going to watch" list? Thinking I might give it a look tonight. Has received fairly good reviews http://ew.com/tv/2017/02/07/legion-ew-review/?xid=Outbrain_People_GalleryRR http://www.vulture.com/2017/02/fx-legion-tv-review.html
Yeah I was thinking I would watch it, it looks pretty interesting. Plus Sam Esmail said I should give it a shot, so I will.
What. The. ****. In the best way possible. This show will keep me happy until Preacher is back I think. Hurrah!
RIGHT?! It was so awesome....that is until my daughter came home and interrupted the last 20-30 minutes. I suppose *heavy sigh* I will have to watch it again! My only knowledge of Dan Stevens is that he was in Downton Abbey (which I did not watch). My daughter watched that series and was over the moon about him. Fast forward to the Beauty and The Beast movie and come to find out he is playing The Beast! And fast forward a little bit more to the point where I found out that he was the lead in this series. Since my daughter has raved about his acting chops I thought I would give it a go, not to mention it looked interesting enough. And then WHAM I watched it last night and I was blown away. He is freakin' AMAZING!! And the way the series is shot is breathtaking. Of course it is yet another series where I am more perplexed than anything at this point LOL. I suppose these are the types of series I am drawn to. Glad to know I am not the only one on the forum watching this. @Neuropyramidal are you watching?
Oh and Jean Smart.....I love her! She is so great when she plays a character whose motives are questionable.
You definitely should @Neuropyramidal, it was so fun. Super heroes, don't know entirely who is real and who is not. And the effects were great!
Great article about episode 1 http://comicbook.com/2017/02/08/leg...micbook.com Daily Newsletter&utm_content=Link
This was SO on my radar. The first ep was so confusingly amazing, I kept the recording so I can rewatch again a few times. The cast is stellar.
I watched it again last night. I think my two favorite bits were the pool bit, and the dance number. That's right, bitches, the DANCE NUMBER.
Just watched the first 20 minutes of the first episode! Definitely like it so far. I will watch the rest before TWD tonight and give my full episode assessment.
I guess I should watch it since it is based on the Marvel comics character from the X-Men books. It will be interesting to see how they play it since the character was basically a bunch of mutants in one. I just hope they do a good job with the story. It looks like the visual affects should be good.
I do NOT trust Syd. She just suddenly appears at the same mental hospital as David AND lo and behold she is a mutant as well? Nah, she is a pawn in Melanie's game. She does not feel anything for David, she is simply following the directive of Melanie. What Melanie's game is exactly, not sure. Does she really have David's best interest at heart or is she simply another side to the bad guy coin?
I think Melanie is a Charles Xavier type character. I'm not getting a bad vibe from Melanie's group (yet).
I really want to catch up on the first two shows of this series but for some reason my cable company doesn't have the episodes on there yet.
I'm not getting a bad vibe yet either, but they could flip the script. All caught up now on the first three episodes and I'm enjoying it so far.
I posted this on that other forum... *shifty eyes* But what if the Legion is everyone that is currently stuck in David's alternative reality? That they were all alive, but will eventually only exist in this place that David and his monster have created?
I got the feeling that David's parasite has them trapped in the alternate reality, I don't think David has created it. He's not strong enough or unwilling to fight it.
