one thing i wanna know.... why was the adult Olivia animation so different to the rest?

Girls are drawn differently than boys?

Girls are drawn differently than boys?

Ha ha...

what i meant was that adult Olivia looked as though they'd just 'painted' over Torv acting to camera rather than the look of the others....

 

[Morg]

Seeing Broyles on LSD was funny

I thought thats what they did with all of them anyway? Ala Scanner Darkly or something?

i believe they did with a stand in for Nimoy... but the adult Olivia was more obviously just a painted over screenshot

 

[imdaly]

I think it's just that the shadowing was different because that scene was during night time, whereas the rest were during the day.

 

[Dr Lee]

Spoiler

That may have been part of it... but hopefully the screencap in the box above should show what i mean.... nimoy was okay... but olivia was too smooth...

 

[Sawyer]

I love how that was such a role reversal for Broyles and Walter.

"Professor Bell, why are you in a Charles Schwab ad?"

 

[SouLeSS]

Inception meets A Scanner Darkly.

 

[Donut]

If anyone ever asks what does LSD do then just show them that gif

Well Olivia isn't an 80-yr-old man. Her face is going to be a little smoother.

I agree the story wasn't advanced much by this episode, but Peter achieved a major breakthrough for both himself and Olivia by passing the smell test.

 

[Maximus One]

That is soooo not what LSD hallucinations look like, Lol I think it would be pretty much impossible to capture what real LSD hallucinations look like on screen. Fear and Loathing did a pretty damn good job though.

 

[Sawyer]

Holy ****....... I guess the machine's just not that into you, Peter.

 

[Prison Mike]

Is this show similar to X-Files? I just saw the pilot for the first time tonight and I got that X-Files vibe from it.

 

[Maximus One]

Better imo. This has a better narrative and less filler although there is a nice amount of filler

Mike, you owe it to yourself to watch the whole first season. It will hook you. There is a small X-Files vibe to it in the beginning, but it becomes something much better IMO. This is coming from a huge X-Files fan by the way.

Don't forget, this show was conceived by the same minds behind one of your favorite shows (some show about some island, I think ). As someone else said, you owe it to yourself to watch Season 1 in its entirety. Although it has some monster-of-the-week stuff in the beginning, getting into the current story now will have you miss a TON of the serialized back-story of the show, just as jumping into the 3rd season of *that island show* would have done.

 

[Prison Mike]

I just hope that Jackson's acting gets better. I wasn't feeling it during his scenes in the pilot.

I've just added season 1 to my netflix que!

 

[Paradox1]

Very good episode I'm interested to see how they proceede without the Machine cloud hanging over its head.

 

[Asgard]

Wow, did Peter do a cartwheel off of the scaffold?
