3 Body Problem (2024) Netflix Series Review | Binge Watcher
Max in game terms is a High luck/ High endurance/ Low Intelligence build so he tends to fail upwards. The broken water chip is a nod to the first Fallout game, in that game you need to leave your vault to find a replacement. The ghouls water was probably highly irradiated and would have been very bad for Lucy.
Thank you for sharing your insight here! Lucy did end up drinking irradiated water though… so could that mean that the longer she stays above ground she will turn into a Ghoul?
@@Binge-Watcher1 Possibly, most ghouls were created during the war from people who had the genetics to survive the radiation from the bombing. That is IMO how the Ghoul came to be. But yes it is possible Lucy could.
@@arsewynd that will be interesting! I’m on episode 4 edits at the moment so really excited to see how the show finishes! Who is you favourite character? And who is your least favourite character?
Well the Ghoul is #1, but a surprise to me was how much I liked Norm by the end, his story is just beginning back in the vault
@ Number #1 for me is the Ghoul! I will be keeping a watch on Norm! Were you satisfied with Lucy’s portrayal?
The penguin verse's sofia is just a brilliant show we never wanted, But a beautiful display of tonnes of actors/actresses who gave us a gift of a season. We just don't want a second season. Jobs done well in 1
Completely agree! I absolutely love the show. I thought they delivered brilliant entertainment! Who’s your favourite character from the show? 👀
@@Binge-Watcher1 Oh i've been asking myself that question for weeks, Think it has to be Colin Farrell for being able to emote through layers of make up and how his character made me forget it was actually him.
OMG!!! I couldn't agree more!! I've been saying the same thing as you... when I watched the Batman movie, I didn't even realise it was him until my friends were talking about him after the movie. I re-watched the movie when it came out on Prime Video and I still couldn't believe it... I would say that he is also my favourite character too. Coming in second place... I would say Victor because his character development in the show was really interesting to watch. What are your predictions for season 2?!?!?
The bottle lucy picks up in the house is Vault-Tec plan D, cyanide. Wilzig "Will you still want the same things when you become a different animal altogether?" That IMO is the series underlying theme. The giant bag Max is carrying is a nod to the game where you give your companion all your extra inventory to carry. The dog attacked him first and The Ghoul didn't survive 200 years letting things attack him. Wilzig "Banana flavored cyanide was the most humane product of Vault-Tec" That is something to ponder.
Thank you for sharing this! I really enjoy going deeper into these kind of worlds with the community. Who is your favourite character from the show? Mine is hands down... The Ghoul!
Pretty sure this is a fan made trailer
It was pointed out to me but I’ve been super excited to watch! Are you looking forward to Daredevil coming back to our streaming screens?
This is a fake trailer
@@PenneySounds I can confirm that it isn’t. On the one unfortunately I simply forgot to shrink it in line with my usual formatting.
@Binge-Watcher1 It is a fake trailer. It's by a channel called Screen Culture that makes fake trailers. They took the actual teaser for Born Again and extended it to a full length trailer by using clips from the Defenders shows and Echo.
@ I can see now! Thank you for sharing 🙏🏼. Is Daredevil one that you’re excited about?
@@Binge-Watcher1 Very much so. I make videos on Marvel continuity, so I'm looking forward to finding connections and references to make videos about.
@ That’s so cool! I’ll subscribe to your channel now. I enjoy getting closer to the different communities that my content can align to. Do you think the new show will have longevity?
def a flopbuster
@@tobiasfrost86 I was gutted with this movie. It had potential but just didn’t pull through!
Woo! Let's go!
@@wilsonwade2970 I’m hoping to get episode 2 out this week but it’s taken some time as there were a few tricky elements! Hope you enjoy 👍🏼
Love the games loved the series. "Cool watch thing" It is called a Pip-boy and in game is your inventory, map, and health stuff. If ever anything seems weird remember "game logic" So health recovery needles, instant tranquilizers etc. Ghouls are mutants created by a large dose of radiation, they are functionally immortal and can heal themselves. Season two is already underway
@@arsewynd thank you for the feedback and thank you for the insight here, I appreciate it! Who’s your favourite character from the show? 👀
@@Binge-Watcher1 The ghoul, but by series end I really liked Norm.
@@arsewynd Oh really!! How come you made the switch? Mine is definitely the Ghoul still.
@@Binge-Watcher1 well, I cant really say because it would be a spoiler, unless you have watched the whole series.
@@arsewynd Oh!!! No I haven't. I have episodes 2 & 3 to upload for the watch-along. I will definitely be picking up this conversation with you once i've completed it though! What I didn't understand was the situation with the dog?!?!
Okie dokie always down for a new Fallout reaction
@@loganwolfe7552 it’s been a great show so far! Really enjoyed it!
@@loganwolfe7552 Who’s your favourite character from the show? 👀
@@Binge-Watcher1 The ghoul
@ I’m the same! The Ghoul is my standout one to watch! Which character (if any) have you been disappointed by?
if you want to keep viewers engaged i would say keep the video playing even when you react and just be natural with it, anyways i am always happy to see content creators grow and progress keep up the good work dude!!!
@@sensaiabdi Appreciate the feedback and the support! It’s a new learning curve for the channel and I am working to improve on the editing process for the watch alongs 🙏🏼
Nice vid bro!

Did The Show Do ENOUGH To Be A SUCCESS?
What Is YOUR Memorable Moment From The Show?
Hey mate, it’s Michael. Check your linked in for me 😂
Have replied 🤣
The Netflix version took it's liberty when adapting the books, many plot were cut out, simplified or altered so it could be more palatable to general Western audience, the original books were much deeper and harder to consume as the writting style were very much inspired by Golden Age sci-fi novels, especially Arthur C Clarke and Isaac Asimov. The Oxford Five didn't exist in the book, they're show's original characters, inspired by lead characters from all three books, which most never interract with nor knew each other in the source material. Also 3rd act of book1 ended with EP5, and EP6-8 were actually 1st act of book 2 and 3, thus it felt like the climax came too early for those who never read the books. If you want to experience and adaptation much closer to the book and dived deeper into the characters and the themes, I suggest try the 30EP Tencent Chinese version which could be find on Amazon Prime and Peacock.
@@tsukasa1608 thank you for sharing this! I appreciate the level of insight you have here! There was similar feedback with the rings of power being far apart from the books. What do you think the reasoning is behind these shows being so far apart from their books?
@Binge-Watcher1 it's a hard book to digest, also very slowpaced, rooted in Chinese culture and not character driven, Netflix needs to reach wider Western audiences which not going to stick if they find it boring, thus some changes are unavoidable, such as Westernized the whole cast and also dumbed down the science.
@@tsukasa1608 interesting! What do you think is a non negotiable for Netflix including in season 2? 👀
@@Binge-Watcher1 Wallfacer's plan should remain unchanged, and the core of the whole trilogy which is the Dark Forest hypothesis.
@@tsukasa1608 do you think there will be longevity with this show as a whole?
Really excited for the finale, trailer looks good
@@TheBrentfordHive I’m really excited for this one too! Crazy that part 3 is going to be released in 2025! Not that long away but the clearly know what theyre doing by hooking us in!!
@@TheBrentfordHive who’s your favourite character from the show? 👀🍿

@Binge-Watcher1 yep they definitely know what they're doing, hopefully it will live up to the expectation
@ I think and hope they do! Exciting times for the finale! What else have you been watching or excited to see?
Did YOU Find Rez Ball Provide A Unique Perspective?
Is Rez Ball Something FRESH & NEW For US To Consume?
Nice review, was a good watch but did feel rushed at times. Will there ever be another basketball film as good as Coach Carter?
@@joecook9813 honestly… I don’t think so. The only way they could is if they have a script that’s just brilliantly put together or they couple a decent script with a great cast! What did you think of the movie?🍿

What Did YOU Think Of The Plot & Storyline?
Well, if Netflix promises it we know it's a lie.
haha! What did you think of the show?
Is THIS The Next BEST Things For The Sci-Fi Genre?
What did you think of 3 Body Problem? 👀🍿
As a fan of the books, I think the Netflix version was far from perfection, it was too simplified and shallow when compared with the much superior books, however it's not a bad adaptation, it's just interpretated differently and much more character driven than the original concept driven source material, IMO it's a good introduction of the IP to newer audience. However, as a fan, I'm much prefer the 2023 Tencent Chinese adaptation, which significantly closer to the book than the Netflix adaptation and many scenes were perfectly visualized just as how I imagined when reading it.
@ I really think the show has potential but I think they need to up their game to make it live up to its potential in season 2. I really did like the show but having not read the books I think that’s where I’m missing something clearly and that’s the knowledge you have. What do you think needs to come in with season 2?
@@Binge-Watcher1 yes, whatever they featured in the first season were merely prologue, barely tickled the surface, were nothing when compared with what comes after, D&D also shown great interest in the later books compared with the 1st book so Im interested to see how they will adapt those plot, and I really looking forward to the "Red Wedding" of the series, fans of the books do know what it is and it would be something you've never seen depicted on screen yet. Im also really looking forward to the 2nd season for the Chinese series as the director said they will give it the same treatment just like S1, being as faithful to the book as possible, and they will also cover that "Red Wedding" scene, it'll be interesting on how different production team will visualized the same iconic moments from the same book.
@ the red wedding sounds interesting! Part of me wants to ask you what’s going to happen and the other doesn’t want to spoil it haha. Instead I’ll ask… what happens in the red wedding from the book? 👀🍿
@@Binge-Watcher1 Humanity got too confident and overly optimistic about our future because despite our science experiment were surpressed by Sophon we still manage to develope our technology and built a space fleet. That, ended really ugly.

Are we excited for Venom: The Last Dance?
I always figured he would be good at deception maybe even using magic to help deceive. I just knew because of how powerful we are shown in the LOTR movies. He had to be quite the trickster to become so powerful.
Yes, I really enjoyed the portrayal around him. I don't doubt that its going to be better in the books but I haven't read them so I only have the show to go off and I found it enjoyable. Were there any character that let you down?
@@Binge-Watcher1 I wouldn't say let me down, but annoyed me, yeah there are two. Celebrimbror (think that's how it's spelt) whose uncharted levels of stupidity and gullibility are unsurmountable. And Miriel. She's just so pointless and gormless most of the time. What about you?
@@mhairilindsay5848 I get what you mean about Miriel. For me, I would agree that it was Lord Celebrimbor... I don't know why they made him so weak and vulnerable. I would have liked to have seen him be a bit stronger than he was portrayed. Have you read the books?
@@Binge-Watcher1 I read the Lord of the Rings books. But it was so long ago I forgot a lot. They when the Lord of the Rings movies came out, I ended sort of blending the two things together lol
@@mhairilindsay5848 haha! At least you've read them... I haven't! Can you remember anything from the books? Reason I ask is because there has been a lot of negative feedback towards the show and the majority of that feedback has been in cases where people have read the books, like we spoke about in our earlier conversation.
The whole show is one not to watch
Is it the show itself did you find or because of its alignment to the books being so off?
I felt the same, trying to pay extra detail to what is going on incase it's important or is going to come back again later. The build is slow but I think it pays off in the end x❤x
For sure! Are you looking forward to season 3? :)
@@Binge-Watcher1 Yeah I'm looking forward to seeing it. But it's going to be a wee wait for that. 😟

Trailer looks really good! Love Pedro Pascal
He’s an absolute legend isn’t he! What have you been watching at the moment?
I don’t disagree that it is possible to enjoy the show. I watch SPECIFICALLY because, as you say, it IS the Lord of the Rings. Of all myths and tales and legends and stories in pop culture, nothing compares to Tolkien lore (especially the lesser known material in the appendices, the Unfinished Tales, and stories of the first age). But the fact of the matter is the writing for the Rings of Power is so unbelievably poor. This isn’t to say that there aren’t any enjoyable elements to it. Believe me. I enjoy Charlie Vickers’ Sauron. The sets and costumes are amazing. But the sheer number of problems is so astounding. I wouldn’t even know where to begin. Killing Bronwyn off screen. Sauron’s inability to heal himself when wounded in battle in Season 1 in spite of how difficult it appeared for him to die at the hands of the orcs at the beginning of season 2. Sauron’s seeming helplessness as Adar’s prisoner at the beginning of Season 2 contra his superhuman capabilities in the final episodes of the season. That random elf’s heroism and death in the Battle of Eregion (you know the Asian female elf who gets pierced by arrows and then blows something up-why do we care enough about her to care about her heroism and death?). I could list a million other ridiculous things. It truly is sad.
Exactly, its like the feeling I have with Star Wars... I watch it, whether its good or bad. I do completely get your points here. I think the feedback has been very very similar. I respect your opinion also because you have the knowledge from the books, which I haven't had the pleasure of reading but I completely understand as i've been there before where there is a massive difference between what the books have brought to life and what's being shown on screen. Is there anything that they could do with season 3 that could save the overall show for you?
