Netflix’s ‘3 Body Problem’ Adds ‘Game of Thrones’ Alum to Season 2 Cast (Exclusive)
I feel like this is an unpopular opinion but I was incredibly unimpressed by this show, it felt like peak techbro scifi to me.
The characters acted like comically simplified caricatures of human beings, I could not get through it.
That's how the original was written, too. Actually, I'd say the show is an improvement in the characters.
It reminds me a lot of golden age science fiction. Fantastic, imaginative story. Characters that are complete cardboard. The third book is basically "women can't make the hard, necessary decisions that men can" so that's going to be fun to see how the show does it.
Yes, I didn't get that far but I sensed vibes of this kind of suffocating betrayal of a genuine interest in the human condition early on in the TV show.
yeah the general premise of the aliens, biology/tech, and their motivation is intersting. But the story built around it is lacking.
so, not exactly surprising that the GoT showrunners didn't do much with it.
You are not wrong. I was utterly baffled as to how this book/show got so popular. spoilers It lost me when it was decided the best way to retrieve a sensitive piece of computer equipment from a large ship was to slice the ship and everyone on it into ribbons using invisible fucking wire. What the fuck? It's OK tho, they're gonna stop the alien invasion by firing a guy's frozen head at them from a billion billion kilometres away. Stupidest shit I've seen in some time.
It doesn’t matter if it is unpopular or not, Three Body Problem sucked.
Agreed. I read the book right before watching the show. The show seemed to add a whole bunch of characters and filler arcs just to pad things out.
