Stan Walker's song "I am ," will attract people to the movie..

1st comment. Great discussion guys. Ep5 blew my mind!!!!

I’m going to see it tomorrow and I’ve been excited to see it for months lol. Yours is like the fifth review I’ve watched lol. Excellent job! I’ve some reviewers claim the plot was a tad hollow, but I’ll find out tomorrow!

Many people can't see Texas and California as allies in a civil war. But, take a look at WWII allies and study the politics within California, then you could imagine how these two states could be allies each vying to become their own country.

As I read some of these comments I want to say shout to everyone that wrote something decent about this series, but one thing that I hate is a negative critic. People are always stating what they don't like in this world that they can't do. If you want a movie done EXACTLY how you want to see it, then raise some money and do it yourself. O wait, but then someone would tell you how garbage your movie was.

My 3 body problem is how to get the 2 women to agree to the threesome.... ;-P

I liked the series. It's a loose adaptation but captures the spirit of the novel particularly the impact of the Cultural Revolution on Li Wenjie's actions. The first five episodes were strong and helped capture the main thread of events in the Three Bodies novel. Hope it gets renewed for more seasons.

Variety has named it the number 1 show of the week with 1.6 billion minutes viewed. I hope the renewal comes soon.

I really loved it, heard the book was a masterpiece. Started watching it and it seemed a bit cheesy at first but by the end of the first episode I loved it as its own thing and now have bought the books and will watch it through again.

I like the Chinese version better- Please don’t get me wrong I’m not a prude I use the F word myself however Netflix has the characters say F**k at least 30 times in each episode- So that’s like once every two minutes- It’s a great word to use when needed but when you use it too much and it’s overdone it sounds stupid lol

the 1989 was way better, i watched the 2024 for exactly 5 minutes and 33 seconds, pure trash just like all the remakes

great start to the series. However, it continues the trend of impossibly smart girl bosses dominating movies and series. It also suffers from aother common trope nowadays: zero young white male charachters. The only two being one who gets killed off early and another dying from cancer. Its telling how diversity is a one way street and inclusive for only some.

Maybe off topic but I don't think you understand the Israeli position as much as you think but I'm glad you're trying (has more to do with Oct7th, which was more devastating to Israel then 9/11 was to the United States)

Original was perfection. New one is 40 years later advantage of new movie tech Original is best. Forever classic .

Great review. Fair and thoughtful. I just can't get invested in a show made by those two right now, I don't trust them. I'm interested, your review makes me cautiously hopeful, so I'll keep an eye on it from the outside, see how it goes. Maybe I can give it a go at some point. That's if it even gets renewed, of course, we all know Netflix. I'm generally reluctant to watch any of their ongoing shows that doesn't have at least two seasons out already anyways, but with D&D involved I think it's gonna have to be pretty much done, and with overwhelmingly positive reception throughout, before I feel ready to give it a go lol. We'll see.

Why do people mention Game of Thrones? To me it means this is a doomed series. D and D for me, means dumb and dumber...

I really wish people could stop mentioning game of thrones with this series.

"The Three-Body Problem" has been one of the most thought-provoking pieces of media I've encountered. The notion that aliens could render our scientific knowledge obsolete, revealing our vulnerability and insignificance before a superior power, is truly unsettling. However, it's also inspiring in a way-it reminds us that the petty issues we grapple with daily pale in comparison of the movement of civilizations. This revelation, in turn, circles back on itself in an excellent, and perhaps intentional, manner. It highlights how the lofty ambitions of movements like communism, or indeed any civilization's actions, can easily overshadow an individual's life and destroy it.

looks like you guys took someone elses thumbnail and changed a thing or two lol

I saw the whole season and it is good. I love sci-fi on screen but not a fan of sci-fi books because the books usually focus on the science rather than the characters. So moving on to the future seasons, I don't think it will be good because there will be so much more happening in space and way more techy things that I dont think the producers can afford to make them unless they make changes and make this more character driven than like the books which do not care about the characters. Plus Netflix might not green light it for another season unless it gets watched by lots of people. We shall see.

solid and well thought out review!

I don't care who you are or where you come from you MUST see this film

There's also TNG: Farpoint where Q puts humanity on trial, kind of a weird episode.

I worked on Origin as a stuntman and actor. Love Avy,

Great Review 👍🏻

Make a movie to teach blacks to overcome their circumstances instead of whining, begging, and blaming others for their own downfall.

I cry cry cried because she has convay the truth

It has enlightened me to artificial hierarchy Caste system.

I absolutely loved this movie…it was extraordinary and it should have been nominated for best movie and best actress. The magnificence of this movie will stand the test of time! I cried both times I saw it and I will see it again 🙏🏾💫❤️

It was awesome

I'm having trouble finding it at the theaters near me. But, I see that CZcams will show it. Does anyone know when?

I never expect the movie to be more serious and emotional than the trailers made it to be. It's like what Erika Alexander said, it's "funny sad".

Just watched the movie and loved it...never saw the trailer until now...the trailer is all wrong like it was marketed as a comedy to play it safe...

You commentary is too long. Net it out.

Nathan you did a wonderful and comprehensive review here as much as you could re no spoilers. Can't wait to see the film. Question, does Ava take into account the newer info about the lies from principal players in the Trayvon tragedy, like the GF?

This is going to go in history as a great Teaching tool and Reserch Model.

The trailer for this movie showed such a small part of this movie. It made it look like a pure comedy. But the deep drama also hit me. The writing was aamzing and the cast elevated it even higher.

An absolutely amazing movie 🍿 loved it!

I saw it arrived in my theater last week, so watched the trailer and was sold when the woman said "your thesis is flawed" as I wanted to see if Isabel could prove the woman wrong. I saw it Tuesday and was the only one in the theater (not unusual after 10 PM on a weeknight) but it hasn't been doing much business all week. Probably because there are 3 other movies out geared for a Black audience: _The Color Purple, The Book of Clarence_ a comedy that turns into a redemption story (excellent),_ and _American Fiction_ which was sold as a comedy but turned out to be a family tragedy and had a disjointed ending (so-so). _Origin's_ last day in my theater is Wednesday (today). I thought the beginning was messed up, not because of the film or cinematography, but because we're introduced to a young Black man in peril and they cut away before it's resolved and I don't remember them saying it's Trayvon Martin. It took 15 minutes or so for the movie to get back on track while I was using my phone and thinking of leaving. It takes a lot longer to get back to this man's murder. As an idea or discovery film it then does that part pretty well from then on, and she makes a good case for caste being the origin or basis of racism, discrimination and murder. I didn't read the book, _Caste: The Origins of our Discontent_ but apparently the ideas on the dry-erase board are her 8 pillars supporting caste, some strong, others malleable. My only other complaint is that Isabel's mother says something about a Little League game that I didn't catch, but we only follow up on that near the end of the film, and find the author missed interviewing the grown man by a couple years, who as a Black boy couldn't swim in the community pool. So who was he in relation to her mother?

Excellent film! I would go see it again!

Misfire propaganda. If some novels are "unfilmable" this is more so.

It was actually OK. Snoop was just being Snoop

The language is awful but the movie is good

I enjoyed the movie. It was awesome. I’ve seen it twice.

Yes. Talk about it in a more"spoilery" way.
