    about Tyrell and the blue light, there's a cool theory. What he saw was the "Blue Screen of Death", the infamous blue message which appeared in Windows when there was a critical failure. No evidence to support the theory, but it still sounds cool

      This is what I always suspected as well. Especially after Tyrell’s wife speaks to Elliot in Dutch to see if he understands. When he says i don’t understand you she knows an alternate is in control and not Tyrell.

    • @dustinalexander9680
      @dustinalexander9680 4 месяца назад

      I don't think so. I think that we were given a huge clue as to the real Elliot in season two.
      Tldr: Elliot is Tyrrell.
      When Elliot is in prison Tyrrell disappears. There is also at least one time where Elliot is confused with Tyrrell. This is explained by Tyrrell having to disappear because he is a wanted man. He was blamed for the attacks. That coincidentally was why Elliot was in prison.
      Sa to when Tyrrell died it was at the point where the identity was no longer useful. White Rose has just announced that they would make Tyrrell the new leader of the dais group. A situation where he could no longer act from the shadows.
      One final thing here I strongly disagree that we should take everything at face value, when the entire show is telling us that it is lying to us. That more than almost any other point is the driving force behind the final season.
      But BBBp is correct in if you focus on questioning everything you get nowhere. I have a theory that white Rose is another facet of Elliots psyche but there are a metric ton of small changes that are needed to make that fit, and I have a wall of text here. So I won't get into that.

    • @fatemehrz6830
      @fatemehrz6830 4 месяца назад +2

      @@dustinalexander9680 Thanks a lot for your complete explanation, but if Tyrell was the real Elliot, wouldn't it be only one picture on the wall of the police? As I recall the scene when Darlene was shown the map of wanted people, there were both Elliot and Tyrell's pictures, and also we could see them both in the conference room of Allsafe. The reason I still doubt Tyrell is the real Elliot is that he was the only one who could talk to Elliot and Mr.Robot. Anyway, I agree with you the entire show was telling a lie and your theory about White Rose might be true as well.
      Tnx ❤️

    The real Elliot is Tyrell and what we thought was Elliott is the persona "The Mastermind". They are many clues along the seasons that Tyrell is the real Elliot.

      @@raymondsims7042 It is a bit complicated to explain that in a small comment without the video support on top of that, but they are several videos around that support that hypothesis.
      Anyway, one thing is sure, it is much more complicated than it appears. The Mastermind has the face of Rami Malek, but it is just a persona. It isn't the real guy. The real face of the protagonist, we don't know really what it is. (as teased in the final scene).

      @@nietzschescodes yeah and I thought it was a brilliant twist to make the elliot we’ve been watching to just be another personality. However I don’t think tyrell was the real personality. I didn’t know that was a theory many people had, but a lot of evidence in the show goes against that. There’s a lot of scenes where tyrell is by himself and Elliot isn’t even in sight, and they address him as tyrell wellick. When he was on the run the cops said they were looking for tyrell wellick. I think tyrell wellick is his own person, but that’s an interesting theory though

    • @unistudent4002
      @unistudent4002 5 месяцев назад +3

      It’s very obvious that Tyrell is another personality. But I doubt Tyrell is the host. It becomes obvious that Elliot and Tyrell share one body, the first time Elliot meets Tyrell’s wife.

    So I’m gonna say this coming from a different perspective, I work with psychic energy, remote, viewing, astral, travel, astral projection, and I travel to different dimensions in my sleep often times I’m being sent to places a lot like the places Elliott was seeing so I believe the show had a lot to do with us as humanity. We create other realities and we manifest other realities just by our thoughts and what we want what we visualize and almost like we develop multiple personalities and we’re all different in different places and the only thing at the end was that Elliott was doing it and not not so good way he was controlling other people, so Mr. robot was controlling those other people that was the only thing but in general in real life a lot of us do this we do travel to different dimensions. We do visit different time spaces galaxies planets, so there’s nothing out about the show. The reason why I watched it and I’m not even into hacking and all that but after the show I was like really obsessed with hacking I wish I was a hacker. Honestly, I love hackers I’m obsessed with them so I feel like they do have a lot of power and control so I feel like this was just showing like anybody who works with the Internet can control other people easily you can you can destroy ruin peoples lives you can make it better and is also showing the multiple dimensions that we’re in and how we can live out different realities all at the same time, when he said he said at the end that it was all dark and it was void that’s why a lot of us humans keep reincarnating onto earth because in the end there’s only the void and nobody wants to go there. We want to stay here we wanna be alive we wanna experience being on earth.

    If the only had simplified the series just a bit, and not twisted the episodes 5 times a minute, I would actually enjoyed it to the fullest. it's beautifully annoying this series. I still wanna watch it again. And again be swearing.

    • @Tenjysan
      @Tenjysan 4 месяца назад +14

      I get it if you like simple stories more. But the confusing way the story is told is supposed to represent elliot's mind. He's as puzzled as we are, and we're part of him. So, it makes sense. As the story goes on, it gets clearer. The twists are there so you can watch the series again and have totally different experiences. Also, the twists aren't just there to be there but; they connect to the themes. So, it's more about personal taste than a problem with the show.

      @@prod.superior5434 I have even watched the show multiple times, and the only thing I would see as an ass pull was the twist with Leon in the season 3 finale, but even that isn't so bad because of the gag character.
      And your issue that you're addressing here has been foreshadowed multiple times since episode 1. The amount of foreshadowing is incredible, so I don't understand the accusation that it's an ass pull when it was planned from the beginning.
      Plus, it fits thematically very well.
      We have Elliot and Whiterose, two sides of the same coin. While Whiterose actively tries to confront her trauma but in the wrong way and ends up breaking more and ultimately taking her own life, we have Elliot who wants to forget all his trauma but realizes that's not the right path and is on the way to acceptance. Whiterose tries to believe that there's another world, while Elliot has created his own dream world.
      The show is about how to deal with trauma, so this twist is absolutely not an ass pull but a thematically clever move. There's a reason why this series has been so highly rated.

    I watched a few episodes of this when it premiered but quickly realized it was just another show hiding bad writing behind a 'mystery' that the writers didn't even know or understand themselves. The she/him bad guy/gal/they/them was cringe and the 'multiple personalities' was lazy.
