The Expanse: Babylon's Ashes (2022)
They did "the characters justice"..
..by doing injustice to everything else, and the world, which always was one of most important characters itself, never felt/was smaller, and more unreal than this.
R. I. P. The Expanse.
The Expanse: Why We Fight (2022)
Ceres Fashion Week
How is Elvi who is on Illus(or other FN controled facility in the Outer System)talking to no other but THE ROCINANTE, when FN controls all comms, and as Monica mentioned, comms through the Ring Space too?
Inners took Ceres which docks exploded day after, so they didn't search and secure the station, or "Tadeo's team" planted "invisible" Romulan mines with cloaking technology?
MCRN fleet arrived to the Ring from Ceres, before Drummer arrived to Ceres from the Belt, and there's many world building failures, between eps 2 and 3 we had the Inners headed out from Earth and Mars and arrived to Ceres, before the Roci that was already in the Belt got there, while Marco who left Ceres and headed to Medina as we saw, was only few hrs away, instead of days away from the Roci..
World building IS GONE
Drummer is already seen as the Inners' puppet, so I guess, joining forces with them will not hurt her already diminished reputation much.
Other than that, average and most watchable ep of the season so far, but definitely not worth of penultimate ep of the final season and entire series.
The Expanse: Redoubt (2021)
Unbent Unbroken Unbowed
Other than redshirts dying in order to have "casualties", cause main charaters CAN'T DIE even after taking headshots(it seems), like Diogo, only NO GEL ROUNDS this time, and do I have to mention how entire '"raid team" SMASHED into instead of landing on target, nothing that can realistically change the balance of power and course of this war happened(for example, supplies that Drummer took are insufficient and obviously can't feed even 1000 people for 5 days)in another ep that belongs to 10-13 eps season, in case of which would be/is solid, but that GoT rip-off kills the attempt of intended strength(Drummer deserves better), and indicates severe creativity loss, while those who couldn't think of something strong of their own, probably "think" it's funny, and will categorize it as an "easter egg" right?
The Expanse: Force Projection (2021)
I was really hoping that this ep will be good and to give it 8 or 9
Wow, other than that so called battle, during which the Roci didn't shoot down all the missiles that the Roci got fired upon, I mean, not even close to all, during which all the missiles fired by TFREE were Epst. "blue" drive, while the Roci was shooting down chemical drive missiles i.e. "yellow drives", and during which the Roci was flipping 360 degrees in less than 0.5 sec, multiple times, over and over again, "spinning like a neutron star", and ofc killed everyone on board, except main "protagonists" ofc, who all survived and weren't even injured by those DEADLY HIGH G FORCES, nothing else happened again..
And I know this battle is in the books, but TV show changed ships, classes of ships, etc, and due to that, TV show had to create "TV version", cause "book version" in this TV circumstances can only exist as "plot armor version" and that's exactly how this battle exists..
Physics gone, production errors, bad editing..
The Expanse: Azure Dragon (2021)
What the hell was this?
Each short ep of this short season is cut even shorter by opening/end credits, recaps and Laconia side story.
Roci can now fly/decelerate backwards, via main drive, which is pulling them backwards, with no need to flip and decelerate, so that slower, falling behind ship, can "catch up"(watch positions of ships, their trajectories, and Roci's approach after EMP had been deployed), other than that what looks like a JOKE, cause what should've been shown as the only physically possible flip during those 2sec got cut out for some reason, physics of the jump was rather accurate, and very different to dreadful Naomi's false physics of 2nd half of S5, maybe that's why she stopped, cause she realized that there's no much of fake physics here..
Overall, this ep rushed desperate to possibly make some room for the rest of the season to be even more rushed, cause it can fit 4hrs only if rushed..
Six short eps will just not work, ever.., and so good eps like 6x01 and 6x02 will both end up as wasted screen time, or so it seems.
I hope I'm wrong.
The Expanse: Strange Dogs (2021)
It will be rushed
Overall good ep, but too short, and not good as it must be for the 1ep of LAST season which also got cut short, a lot of skipped, Bull disappeared, Anderson Dawes killed, cause actor NOT available, and even if was NO TIME, cause we "have" to deal with, Filip being weak and spoiled at the same time, and additionally, if stick to standards, irredeemable, and so this solid ep is getting low rating..
The Expanse: Leviathan Wakes (2016)
Eros
Looking back at this..no wonder that what happened has happened, but they still wonder..
The Expanse: Critical Mass (2016)
That's a gunship
Well, July ended as those things usually end, but..oh well, and Miller is one of favs..
The Expanse: Salvage (2016)
the Anubis
Earth's politics, and politics overall is very well done, and on a 2nd watch, s1 really makes sense, and it's actually great.
The Expanse: Windmills (2016)
Donkey balls
That spy is actually a very good spy.
-gotta give him that.
The Expanse: Rock Bottom (2016)
Mateo x20K
A man's gotta stand up! A man is going to stand up!..some day things gonna change..
The Expanse: Back to the Butcher (2016)
Well done
Either that our main crew decision to practically steal Corvette class MCRN light frigate, the Tachi, many other stuff that really makes sense later..
The Expanse: CQB (2015)
"Big guns"
Railguns are not much of a weapons, if don't believe me, just ask Capt. Theresa Yao of the MCRN Donnager...
The Expanse: Remember the Cant (2015)
Well done politics
"heaven help us all if Mars and the Belt decide to share the tootbrush" from previous ep...
The Expanse: The Big Empty (2015)
"it's the Donnager, the Flag ship of the Martian Navy"
Very nice world building in this one, and a little bit of "character moments" too..
The Expanse: Dulcinea (2015)
Makes sense
After few seasons it's easy to realize that there is a reason why this 1st ep of entire series is named Dulcinea..
The Expanse: Winnipesaukee (2021)
Another dull episode, with brief interesting moments
These last few episodes are being slow and almost unnecessary
The Expanse: Nemesis Games (2021)
Last 3 episodes should've been made from this one
Not a bad ep, great actually, but it doesn't fix the damage made by episodes of slow(pointless)pace and dull content..
The Expanse: Tribes (2021)
the Free Navy welcomes you
This was needed and very well done filler episode, but too much filler will make things ful of..we know what, and as I'm giving my rating and rewiev for this ep after I saw the next three after this, I and many other know exactly what I'm talking about..
The Expanse: Gaugamela (2020)
Welcome to the Pella
My name is Marco Inaros. I am the Commander of the Free Navy, we are the military arm and voice of the Outer Planets..
The Expanse: Oyedeng (2021)
Naomi angst continues
She could've gone all the way to the Ring space on those thrusters of plot armor.
The Expanse: Hard Vacuum (2021)
feelings in space
Why didn't she fly all the way to the Ring gate...
