❤❤❤
as intense as this episode was get strapped in the season only picks up and gets even faster paced from here on out. ]:)
As an OPA representative, which faction do you want to join? Megmage. Just say in the next intro.
Miller was one of the most well written and well acted characters I've ever seen. Thomas Jane absolutely killed it.
concur...when the next season started, I was still despondent over his death, which caused me to half ass watch it until I came out of my funk..
Hot? Take: Miller best character and this is the best episode
I've read from one of the Expanse crew that Jane was absolutely in love with The Expanse universe and his place in it, and on his last shooting he made an entire speech thanking the crew for the wonderful art they created together.
The entire show reeks that the people who were working on it loved what they were doing.
I don't normally binge shows, but I flew through The Expanse in a week. My wife wasn't watching it at the time, but she walked in the room on this episode right at the part where Miller walks in on Julie. I screamed at her "If you are gonna watch this show ever DO NOT come in here right now!" 😂 I got to the end of season 3 before she decided to give it a go, I paused at the end of 3 and rewatched it from the beginning with her so we could both see what happens after season 3 lol.
Good story. I would've done the same.
My dad was telling me for months that I HAVE to watch this show. It wasn't until I was sitting and binging all the way to season 3 with my jaw dropping further and further like WHAT??? It's soo good. One of the best shows I've ever seen.
i love the idea that Proto-julie is confused and afraid when first talking to Miller, but when he takes of his helmet and 'joins' the protomolocule she becomes focused and calm, cos Miller is calm. she's using his strength in their final moments..
The focus on science, on physics, on understanding the way the grounded universe of the Expanse works... is so that when the Protomolecule starts ignoring the rules, you really understand just how terrifying it is for the cast.
"Can you believe a guy like me would believe in something?" Damn, that line is heartbreaking. A would be tough guy, a hard-bitten noir detective, laying his heart open. Letting himself be vulnerable. Amazing writing, amazingly acted.
No matter how many times I watch this episode, the crew toasting Miller with his bottle of Ganymede Gin always hits me. Powerful episode and great reaction.
Same
The end of that episode is profoundly beautiful.
"What the caterpillar calls the end of the world, the Master calls a butterfly" is a quote from the Richard Bach book "Illusions: The Adventures of a Reluctant Messiah". In the book it's attributed to a fictional book of maxims called The Messiah's Handbook. It's basically about putting faith in something greater than yourself and hoping everything will work out, even if you can't see it. It's not really clear if Estabon is being sincere or sarcastic imo.
Yooo! I love Richard Bach! JLS is one of my favorite books ever and the reluctant messiah is so full of great maxims, didn’t catch that reference, thank you for pointing it out!!
My heart broke when she asked “is someone controlling it?” Knowing what was coming. This episode was so amazing to watch for the first time.
Yes, crying along with you as this is such a beautiful episode. Miller found his way home with Julie. Avasarala defended her home the best she could. The Roci crew were ready to sacrifice their home to save Earth. So much heroism. And I loved that the bird affected you too. For whatever reason, the protomolecule likes the bird, an ancient species related to the dinosaurs, and seems to use it for some type of non verbal communication. I always found that profound and beautiful even if I could not understand it.
I think the bird was like a signal between Miller and Julie.
I always thought that the proto-molecule had some quality or trait that existed outside of time. Julie saw an image of Miller and the bird as she was dying, even tho she'd never met him. Miller saw flashes of Julie after he got irradiated on eros, even tho he never met her. He told Naomi that he saw her clearly, taking his hand and telling him 'you belong with me' which happened in the end. And they were both eventually infected by it, tho at different times. It's like their fates were somehow intertwined by the PM. Like the universe was telling each of them that they would meet and they would need each other.
That is gorgeous. I think it affected me mostly because I grew up believing birds were deceased loved ones coming to check on us and protect us. Little signs that they're still around, and that you're on the right path. But now I'm crying again thinking about the protomolecule using the bird image for guidance.
Beautiful reaction to a beautiful episode.
The writers took their time with fifteen episodes to build this moment. I've lost count how many times I've watched this.... it still gets to me. What an amazingly written, directed, acted show!
Dawes told Miller he hadn't lost everything, but when he did he would see what matters most, clearly for the first time and it would welcome him home. Miller told Naomi that he sees Julie and knows she isn't there but she takes his hand and says you belong with me.
We all cried... but he finally found Julie.
All I will say is this won't be the last time you will need tissues.
Looking forward to the next one!
When he takes her hand and she tells him that he belongs with her... All my tears 😭
ALL OF THEM 😭😭😭
It's unbelievable how terrific the authors write. With Julie, they created a character that was hardly shown and left such a massive impression that I was in tears. It was over with me when this incredibly strong personality said that she was just going home. How tragic is that?
One of the most beautiful episodes of television
This episode was the one that confirmed for myself that this show, regardless of genre, is/was imo the single greatest tv-series that I've ever seen, (and I've seen a boatload of tv shows over the years), . Even if your not a hardcore fan of sci-fi like myself, this series the very least should be considered the best sci-fi tv-show ever made. Great reaction!!
Most of the human race throughout the Sol system lives on Earth (>30B on earth,
The character development arc of… every reaction to Miller. Literally everyone I’ve watched, quite the development of what they think of him!
That toast at the end gets me everytime 😭
I Have watched all seasons of this great show countless times and seeing this episode and your reaction to it makes me wabt to start it over again. Did you ever imagine when you began watching this you would be on a ride this powerful?
I give almost any reactor to The Expanse a chance. This show is incredible. Enjoy. This is just the start of this journey,
One of my favorite little 'actions' in the entire series is when Errinwright smacks that little comm unit on his desk across the room. It never stops being funny.
I watched the first season, LOVED it, then read the first book and ABSOLUTELY loved it. In the end I had to put the books down and finish the show so the books didnt ruin the show for me. This is a top 10 show for me. And the books, for me, are even better. The way they describe the protomolecule and eros in the book is soo cool and creepy.
Anyway, I'm rambling. Love your stuff Meg!
Avasarala is the adult in every room.
This is still the most beautiful episode of TV I have ever seen. Thank you for your honest vulnerable reaction. Hugs.
:))) thank you for being vulnerable with me!
@@MegMageReacts I am a 50 year old man and I cry everytime I see this episode. It's a masterpiece.
THANK YOU for putting it out so quickly.
Thank you!! Many props to Caleb for editing so quickly!
Hoo boy, this show is just getting started! There is SO much crazy shit to come! Can't wait to see you continue going on this journey!!!
Oh, and the books are AMAZING. You should absolutely read them! I'm on my second read-through of them currently and enjoying them more than my first!
The show is an emotional masterpiece. Season 2 is going to hit some real emotional cues, so don't forget your tissues!
Awww Meg is such a sweet sensitive person. She really wins us over with her reactions
Did you ever even imagine that tjis show would be so bittersweet as to make you sob when you first started this series?
The psudo-gravity on Eros is only 1/3rd G, a comfortable gravity for Belters. Similar on Ceres. As Miller is a belter, from Ceres, the gravity on Eros feels normal to him.
Yes, just think about it, when they burn with 15 G, that's 15x the comfortable gravity for Holden and Amos, but 45x for Naomi and Alex. How they could even survive this is astonishing.
@@VoodooMcVeeyeah my only real gripe I have with this future is that the Belters are pictured as the real badasses of space and I am like bruh they start with a very serious disadvantage when it comes to going even a bit faster with your ship
Three things stand out to me when I watched this episode.
One the bird. Have you ever read the poem Ode to a Nightengale by John Keats? The bird guides the seeker to his beloved. And for the journey love alters the poet permanently.
The second is Miller fed Julie the nuke. If you notice she got a lot stronger after he did that and the nuke shut down. He earned her trust.
The kiss was completely unscripted. I think Florence Faivre (Julie) talked to Thomas Jane and she initiated that.
Last the scene with Christian and her husband got me more than the Julie/Miller scene. The idea that you’ve built your life with someone and now you have to watch them die.
Thanks
At this time, the population of Earth is 30 billion, so Eros would've destroyed 23-33% of the population.
Including the environmental fallout it’s over 50%
Or more... Then the Protomolecule starts eating everyone else leftover 😲
Along with every bird, tree, fish, bacteria, EVERYTHING on Earth
Eros hitting Earth would have almost certainly set off the near destruction of humanity. There would likely be just enough stuff out on Mars and the floating in the Belt that they could scrape together some kind of ecosystem but that's assuming Mars could get along with the Belters long enough to do even that.
Thank you for sharing your thoughts and feelings with us Mage. The power of good can bring "home" even fallen tragic figures like Miller. Him and Julie needed each other from the get go, to complete each other (well, mostly Miller) and to get the job done of saving Billions.
Population of the earth + luna at the start of the series is almost 30 billion.
ALWAYS have tissues handy... you just never know...
The way this show can have you on the edge of your seat one moment, and in tears in other moments, is proof that this show absolutely deserves an Emmy Award!! Maybe even two or three of them. Always have some tissue near by. There are many more episodes that will have you in tears. It is my opinion that a true Hero, dies willingly to save everyone else. Miller is a True Hero in my mind. Miller's story arc was just fantastic.
Reactions are so interesting, especially to a show like this one. Each episode holds up another ink blot and the reactions reveal so much. Great material for psychology students.
After s01e08, after all this suspense to find Julie, and we just find her dead… it was gut wrenching. I was so sad and confused and wondering where this series was going to go. Then this episode amazed me. Their persons weren’t saved, but they were saved/redeemed in a way that up for s01e08. This is ONE of my favorite episodes. Don’t worry, more will come. And we don’t tell you when! 😅
This episode was so beautiful. ❤ I know it's sad. I also feel like it's a love story. The protomolecule connected with humanity, it reflected the beauty and love of humanity back at it. It was also wonderful that Miller was able to come back for Julie in this way when she'd been left all alone. I'm sad that real Julie died alone.
I've been so looking forward to you getting to this episode! I love how much you love these characters.
You made it to here! Now enjoy as the show expands, no pun intended.
Also, as for reading the book, you may not want to start reading yet. I think most will say once you finish book 2 in the show, then it’s a good time to start book 1. It’s just season 1 is kinda sorta a blend of the first two books. I don’t want to say more than that.
For sure if someone wants no show spoilers the books probably should come a few season behind. For me I wasn't as worried so between season 1 and 2 I read everything that had been published to that point, and so I had some ideas what Season 2 had in store but it was still awesome.
@@scottwatrous yeah, there are f atone things you can infer. It’s not as bad in later seasons/books
I do want to ask one question; what would you think of reading The Churn BEFORE season 5? I had caught up by that point, and I am so glad I did that!
I really want to have a reactor read that novella during season 4 sometime.
😢😢😭 You made me cry. 😭
Been waiting for this one.
I was at the bar with friends and saw you posted this and was like " I GOTTA GO HOME, Y'ALL".
There are over 30 billion people on Earth in The Expanse.
This show is amazing. I gotta actually read the books at some point.
Virtual Hugs, beltaloada. So say we all.
Miller and Julie were connected through the protomolecule the connection went backwards through time Julie saw miller at the moment of her death as she became one with the protomolecule and from that point on Miller kept seeing Julie as he was connected to her and he saw the moment where they met in a dream he told Naomi how she held him and said you belong with me.
"that reminds me of my caleb" now i'm crying too wtf meg!!!!!
The show up to this point is amazing, but my favourite parts are from here up to the end of Season 3 (it continues to be awesome even after that, though). You're the patron saint of lost causes, kid, and you're in for one hell of a ride. Remember the Cant.
I love how mostly nobody starts out liking Millier, but then he grows on you like a fungus you can't get rid of (something he would say). Thomas Jane created one of the most memorable and iconoclastic characters in Sci-Fi, and when you go back and rewatch you can see how much he put into making a solid through-line... and part of that is being a bit unlikable on the surface, abrasive, brash, uncool, and full of a borderline rockabilly arrogance.
Don't know if you knew this, but beltas often live in throuples and just giant pansexual love groups... So it's not totally out of the realm of possibility with you, Caleb, Miller, Julie...
Hello Meg, I'm on watching you react to the Expanse
season 2, ep.5 and this is a really good series and
I like hearing your reactions to it and glad that you
are on tonight with it, have great evening and an
awesome week Thank You Meg.🤠
MILLERRRRRRRRRRRR i love and miss you king
It's a quote by Richard Bach from Illusions: The adventures of a reluctant messiah...
Yeah, someone probably should have warned you, this show is incredible.
And you've only just gotten started.
Buckle up Buttercup this is only just the beginning
First video of yours that I’ve seen. As a big fan of SciFi, in my opinion The Expanse is the best in that genre ever put on film. Glad you’re enjoying it. But grab something & hold on tight. It just gets better.
Thank you for being here!
I'm not crying (again). You're crying (again)...
Great Reaction!
Oh yes, all those blue onions *cries*
Miller is our hero!
There is too much fossil evidence of our evolutionary past for humanity to have migrated here from space.
There IS a theory called "pansperma" that speculates that the first microbial or psudo-pre-microbial life hitched a ride in a comet and crashed here starting life on earth. 🤔
It's part of the concept behind the Protomolecule.
7-10 billion dead would be about everyone now, but a couple hundred years from now the population could be quite a bit larger. Regardless, that's a lot of dead people.
Beautiful indeed. :)
Really socks that we dont get more miller.
Edit: leaving the typo for reader context.
Big big socks indeed 😭
The episode is called that due to it being the title of the book, the second book is Calibans war and the third being abaddons gate
Eh, no? This episode's title is "Home". It's the season finales that have the names of the books. This was not a season finale (but a book finale).
Look up eros and Venus Greek mythology.
Miller is not one of my favorite characters in this show (I ❤ Amos) but his arc is so beautiful, and I cry every time I rewatch this episode. His acting, her acting, the writing and directing, and music and visual effects all come together to make something beautiful and magical and awe-inspiring.
Jealous of yoir belter polycule ft Miller 😅
Remember, the Protomolecule originally was shot at Earth but was gravitationally captured by Saturn as the moon Phoebe. The Protomolecule was following its original instincts through the mental imprint of Julie Mao. 😲
I don't think it was shot to Earth, it was shot to our solar system to do the Work. And Julie wanted to go home which means it's her will to go to Earth, not protomolecule's.
@@Erithacus it would have been shot at The Goldilocks Zone of Sol, which billions of years ago would have been Earth and Mars (barely). Earth would have been it's main target
@@rodentnolastname6612 Yeah I mean however long ago it was, they'd still see that Earth was a likely good place to go. It just got picked up on the way and was a little late to the party, that's all.
Your reaction to this episode was intelligent and beautiful Thomas Jane who plays Miller is important to the show and directs some episodes thru season 5.
Promo>SM 😕
Putting big spoiler events like this for the show in the thumbnail is gonna hurt your subscriber count more than help it. Just a friendly advice from a modder for a big reaction channel. Wishing you the best. Love the expanse!
Shout out to the amazing scoring of this episode. The music in this series in fantastic but he outdid himself on this episode
Joe Miller was definitely the best character on this show
Bold statement in a show full of Best Characters
