Mr. Robot || USA

Loved the pilot, looks to be a stunning show. I won't compare it to Fargo as they're fundamentally different shows but as a pilot it's more instantly intriguing and certainly on the same level as Fargo, Black Mirror and Utopia.

bump since few are missing this thread

Great 2nd episode. Man I love everything about the show so far, the setting, music, acting, characters, plot.

Episode all but confirms that Mr Robot is in fact Elliot himself and the dude who pushed him is an imaginary person created inside his head, possibly with the looks of his father.

At this rate I would be surprised if he isn't.

The music is amazing, reminds me of the smoothness of ME1's OST, very nostalgic stuff but fitting

Finished the first episode.

Its eerily similar to Dexter (not that its bad, in fact thats a + in my book), his musings on the world, life, friends, etc is kinda parallel. Also, he takes digital memoirs of people he's virtually killed, much in the same way that Dexter takes blood samples from his victims

Loved the pilot, its fantastic, it felt like a movie, not your generic pilot imo.

Some guy explains the hacking sequence in the first ep


Mr Robot gets second season ahead of premier

No you are right about the Dexter parallels, if you pay enough attention you'll see a bit of "Fight Club" in it too.

I am getting a FC vibe from it, but i'm not 100% sure its his own imagination. At least i don't want it to be, seen too many movies use the FC trope, but not really execute it well (granted, this is a show)

Anyways, who is this Adil Rami?His acting is sublime, I'm pretty sure i've seen him somewhere else (not Night at the Museum )

Holy shit. What an ending

Fantastic 2nd episode. Even better than the first.

I love the acting in this show. Every character, even if it's a minor one, comes out as strong and gripping. That drug dealer. His monologue was so good. I thought he was going to become someone major but he was only a cameo but man that scene was amazing. So powerfully delivered.

Then the scene with the psychiatrist. That was great too.

The setting, acting, dialogues, characters and the pace is all 10/10 so far.


There are many theories so far. Most popular one I read is the one Urban posted. Mr Robot could potentially just be a hallucination. Same with the fsociety. Both could just be imaginary and not real at all.

But then they look too real to not be true. Mr Robot might be the only one who is imaginary.

They can swing it both ways at this point. If people talk too much, the writer can very make it a double bluff.

That rapper btw He is supposedly a dark army member

Can't wait for ep 3

speaking of AdilRami Malik



lmaoooo

Well FSociety can't really be an imagination since they released a video regarding the hack of Evil Corp. and everyone else also saw it.

And everyone in that fsociety group in the arcade place has acknowledged Mr.Robot has being there and being the leader. I don't think he's a figment of Elliot's imagination.  

One thing it could be, is that 1 person (Elliot) has 2 personalities (like Fight Club) one of which is Mr.Robot and the other Elliot. He's basically losing his mind.

The only imaginary thing at the moment that seems to be in Elliot's head are the black suit guys following him everywhere.

RG if you are liking this then you should waste no time watching Fight Club.

The scene where Darleen (the rootkit hacker) confronts "Mr. Robot" and he just steps in front of Elliot talking to her made it kinda obvious for me when I already had my suspicions.

When Elliot said "Where is your boss?" And Darleen showed surprise is a big clue as well. Similarly, when Darleen said where were you yesterday and Elliot got confused. Think he was supposed to be there but wasn't due to his episode.


No one has had a convo with Mr Robot in the fsociety.

btw "She has a bit of Allah akbar in her"

I think Mr. Robot is his Tyler Durden

Is episode 3 gonna air today?

Yep

called "eps1.2_d3bug.mkv"

This is legit GOAT, I can confirm.

IMDb ratings:
eps1.0 - 9.3
eps1.1 - 9.3
eps1.2 - 9.6

I don't think any other show has had this kind of ratings right from the start
Maybe only Lost and The Sopranos

I can't believe how amazing this show is lol. What the actual *bleep*

Freeza you study films. Tell me if cinematography wasn't out of this world for this episode?

Every side-arc is great on its own. No annoying characters. Nothing is dull even for a second. I love how they have actually tried to be different and the Boss of Allsafe is a good guy who isn't an idiot. In comparison to other shows where the boss of a company is some evil warlord. Gideon

That swedish guy and his girlfriend are Frank and Claire: Rated R edition

Mr Robot is imaginary. 100% confirmed now. But I think they know we know his imaginary and that's not really a shock factor anyways. He isn't important. Elliot n co are.

Angela's bf pisses me off so much though And she is clearly playing him. She probably realised the web cam was on.

I really like Shayla. But the worry is that she is exactly the type they will kill in the end. She is too normal for the show. Hope I am wrong.

That starbuck scene



So Elliot is in the game now. Shit is going to get real. Specially with Gideon also investigating and Dark army involved as well.

seriously be bad writing if Angela and her bf doesn't go to Elliot for help in regards with the identity theft problem

They don't want to make Elliot the guy who can do everything though. Angela will surely seek Elliot's help. But it was good that they didn't make it cliche and say "let's go to Elliot for help" straight away.

Also think there is a bigger game going on. Dark Army don't want to infect Allsafe servers for no reason.

Swedish guy isn't gay. I even doubt he is Bi. He just did it because of business. That Anwar guy was secretary for Evil Corp who knew a lot of information Tyrell wanted. Like the new CTO. So he hacked his phone while seducing him. That was the only reason.

Guy threatening Angelas bf works for Dark Army

The guy is Swedish

His GF was Danish though. That horrible Hellerup/Copenhagen dialect is so freaking annoying. And of course the pregnant BDSM person has to be Danish
