When you understand the ending but still want it explained
When you dont care, but are bored enough to listen in case theres something inteesting in the vid.
Honestly I watch these after watching an episode to see if I got the same interpretation of the episode as other people (and see if anyone notices anything I overlooked)
@@spliffyrodgers4266 same
Facts lmaoo
I come here for Easter eggs I missed
imagine your sims killing you bc you were playing a game
Always let your sims out of the pool.
@@baumintrack2745 That was his only fault. I kept thinking the whole time why the fuck did he make them sentient and not just complete bots since he just wanted slaves anyway.
@@No-onesgayformoleman I think it's cuz he's a psychopath narcissist, and what narcissist could be content with ruling over mere bots?
You may think it’s a game, but for them? It’s hell
@@ephemal Them who? Computer programs? Do you think its torture for characters to die over and over in a video game like turtles in Mario Bros games then?
When Daly took away her face that was horrifying. It’s not just you don’t have a face, it’s that you’re literally suffocating while not being able to see or talk to call for help
for eternity too because you can't die
@@SjofnBM1989 I’d imagine you would have to get use to it and not feel anything anymore
@@__-pq5ul yeah you'd have to get used to it but you'd forever feel the burning of your lungs as you desperately try to gasp for air only to remember that you can't. rinse and repeat for eternity. it would've been a terrible fate.
Yeh that was straight nightmare fuel
She had no mouth. And she had to scream.
This is the best ending of any black mirror episode, I was SO stressed and was thinking they were gonna get a bad ending like most black mirror episodes so thank goodness
Queen Eliane based on how this guy has been screwed over in real life, I still feel bad for him. I mean this dude clearly is going to die from lack of food, or not die at all
Garrett Prepetit yeah I felt bad too when someone said that even if he dies, his consciousness will remain in that dark place forever. Idk if that’s true but that’s awful. But he was a terrible person so I’m glad the people he tortured got a good ending.
R u kidding me This was a horrible ending but u are so fine ima have to agree with u
@@seandafny that's a... interesting take
Queen Eliane I mean I was rooting for him but it is what it is
There was a little nod to "Shut Up and Dance" when the girl said that she would do anything to not have those photos leaked
imagine it was the crew in uss calister making those texts and the hacker.
Thomas Li LMAO that would actually kinda make sense
Brilliant!
That’s what I noticed
@@wongshang1234 I like this theory but what reason would they have to do this maybe they got bored i guess lolz
Nice. One of the episodes that didn't leave me with the feeling of dread.
Until the AI, after learning to manipulate real people in the real world to strike out against gamers it is competing against through in-game NPCs... is the AI going to go on to figure out how to trick more human players into death? This horror story is like a virtual version of Westworld; NPCs (instead of robots) being aware of repeated suffering inflicted by human players have developed the knowledge/skill/capability of influencing real people to help it attack its gaming opponents in the real world. You telling me this is going to be a one-off?
Haha
One of my favourite episodes honestly. Just good scifi fun
R u kidding me !? The guy fucking died in his chair on the game ON CHRISTMAS !!!! ARE U KIDDING ME !??
If you really think about it. This has a depressing ending. Imagine you being bullied in real life takes his revenge on computer simulated only for you to get killed on christmas eve
The part in the sim when Elena says they don't even have the pleasure of being able to take a shit, I sometimes think about that when I'm dropping a deuce.
Taking one right now bruh replying to you. Thinking of U bruh 😘😆😆😂
Ste Fan
um get a room fool🙈🙈🙈😘😘💅🏽😌
This episode was one of the only ones with a good ending
I probably won’t see your reply.
Shut up and dance was a pretty crazy ending. Didn't expect it at all.
I'll probably get flak, but I think the Ashley-O episode had a good ending too.
Good ending? The bullied emotionally stunted main character ends up dead. The other characters obliviously unaware of his online gaming activities but since he seems to be the genius behind their game I would expect the company dwindles and fails eventually leaving other characters out of work.
The "characters" on the ship are not people. They are a computer doing a very good simulation of multiple people based on (hand wave) programming of their personalities into the simulation. Even if the computer hadn't won the game, the computer would have still continued to exist. No emotional stakes either way on that one.
@@iansneddon2956 When you can create a Turing-type Test that can differentiate a "real" human from one of the Callister humans; you can write a paper on it. Until then, I would have to say, that such an AI may very well have "feelings." Vegan's have less evidence lobsters feel pain as we do, but they continue their crusade despite that.
@@DanielTsosie "Feelings" is a fairly abstract concept. We have nerves providing sensations, some of them quite unpleasant. Helps us avoid situations in which we are being/continue to be injured. An AI that is capable of modelling human behavior will also model those reactions. It obviously has outcomes it is striving for (programmed to win, for example) and outcomes that interfere with that are to be avoided. Essentially, it's concept of pain is losing functionality of its characters or setbacks that keep it from winning.
I've made the comparison elsewhere in comments for Westworld with difference that this is a single AI running all NPCs while Westworld gave us robots with individual CPUs processing their personalities and reacting to physical sensations - conceptually this isn't really very different but for our perceptions we would be more inclined to view the Westworld robots as having personality than the single AI running all NPCs which we would be inclined to view as cold and calculating. But just the same we have people taking out dark impulses on a "fake person" where they don't have to feel guilty for what they do - and an AI perceiving negative "feelings" from these assaults and seeking to end the pain. In the Callister example I impulsively see the AI as cold and calculating in its efforts in the show and continuing after to arrange the death of gamers that get in the way of it "winning".
i didn't know dunst was engaged to discount matt damon
In the Amazon series FARGO-season 2, Dunst character was married to her real husband.
Oh god haha
Really does like matt Damon.. Especially at first glance 😂
Savage
it took me a good 5 minutes to realize it wasn’t him lmao
People talk about how evil Daly is... but if tech like this ever exists, I definitely imagine people would use it on co-workers, classmates, etc they despise. Or even their crushes.
Despite the plotholes, this is one of my favourite episodes in BM.
The thing is, nobody knows tech like this exists, Dally is the only one who came up with the idea or replicating their DNA into a sentient clone, he does it at his house, with the technology he created
@@_feli_1085 if he can do it incognito, the likelihood of other people doing it too is also possible
Daly could’ve really prevented this by keeping his doors locked and recognising nanettes seduction tactic.
True but hes an incel so
A nerd will always fall for the pussy. That is the one good thing the fleet had going for them is that he wud fall for that trick every.. single.. time. Even tho he cud get the pussy whenever he so pleased because he built the entire fucking universe... but he is such a big time nerd he still gets seduced. Lmao. I still dont like that he died tho thats so fucked up man
I wonder what would have happened had Daly paused and exited the game when the crew was escaping, and disconnected the internet and stopped the update
@@seandafny They couldn't even have sex...
@@seandafny Too bad that there's no pussy on incel world he's created lmao
The only thing I didn’t understand was Daly’s lack of admin permissions in his own game despite having such immense manipulation powers. I felt he would’ve been able to teleport onto the ship when they were going to the wormhole
Yeah this episode lost realism and instead the story writers wanted to look for something heroic despite the obvious plot holes
I agree man , he is a god . And u telling me . He can't even teleport and turn off the update. Like nonsense
Did he have the omni coder?
Obviously - this episode FELL APART parodying Star Trek/Wars
Well it's the same as having a game trainer+, you still can't skip level despite of having infinite power
That ending with Aaron Paul in the Online version of Infinity update. AWESOME!! And the way he talked was like how he was in Breaking Bad as Jesse.. lol!
I was thinking of Todd from bojack horseman when I first heard it lol
@@FreshJez yeah me too, i just imaged Todd playing the game at home haha
“Todd clean up your shit “
“King of space bitch” would have made it twice as awesome lol
I’m sad that I recognized robbert to be the cunty facist slave man from breaking bad, sorta made me know he was going to be evil
Welcome back and My favorite episode.
But you blew my son out of an airlock
So *fuck* you.../AHHHH/
“But you blew my son"
Such a great line
@@bungalowfeuhler1541 whoa whoa, slow down there buddy. Pedophilia is not cool
@@issyyourboo2848 Tell that to "shut up and dance"
He coulda put a tiny bit of effort and win that girl’s heart.
They would probably have some kind of safety system in place, right? I mean you could get stuck if a game crashed and the "exit game" command wouldn't work. Daly deserved the ending he got, but I think as a genius, he would have had a failsafe mechanism just in case, especially since he lives alone and has no one to "wake him up" by removing the implant.
I think that is the beauty of the episode. He likely hacked the system so much that some failsafes were removed. He likely thought he was safe because he was the admin and there was no reasonable way for that to be removed.
In reality, it would be impossible to be trapped since such a system could only suggest, not control. Removing or powering down the device would just reset back to your regular mental state.
Generally such virtual worlds work kind of like creating a copy or clone uploading to the virtual world, putting the original body in a coma. In this case, it is entirely possible that if you removed failsafe, then the machine would not be able to pull you out of the coma like state.
It is beautiful because it goes along with the hubris of the villain character. He fucked himself and in the end was his biggest enemy.
@@JacobSantosDev That actually makes a lot of sense. I hadn't considered that he himself might have disabled the failsafes.
@@JacobSantosDev the system of the game shouldnt matter,he is still using an interface machine and a physical head piece,those things in any realistic scenario would have some kind of security,like if youve been connected for X ammount of time it shut off unless you confirm,and as he wouldnt confirm it turns off
You know what's funny, he invented a device that can make a copy of your brain from a small DNA sample.
He clould earn bilions on this idea alone.
Image how many genius people would wanna to transfare their mind to live forever
@@paradoxzee6834 Good catch. I think his problem is he's petty and vindictive, and he mainly created that world to enslave and torture people who didn't pay him enough respect in the real world. He's not thinking of any positive use for it. He wants to be God who can smite people who don't serve him.
Kids, remember that time when your mother was a coder?
Haha
Wait.... 🤯🤯🤯
I don’t get iy
@@austynjoe3495 The actress who played Nanette Cole also played Tracy - the mother from the show How I met your mother.
lol at first i thought the girl who plays cole was ella from lucifer,,, then i realize she was traci from himym
Black mirror makes me wonder if the whole world were living in could be some kinda futuristic simulated shit. We would not even know ?
Chiney Lee no you haven’t shut up
@@qwoc lmao
@@mechineylee ur schizophrenic
It is a simulation. Do some research and you’ll see.
@Aiden Pearce that's what u were program to think 👀
A detail I love about this episode is that the villain is pretending to live up to Star Trek's ideals of a hero even though he's more evil than any of the shows villains. The crew on the other hand who barely know each other never turn on each other and even sacrifice for each other no matter how much they get punished for it.
This also reminds me a short Sci-Fi horror called "I have no mouth, and I must sceam" by Harlan Ellison.
The story revolves around evolved AIs (called AMs) torturing the last few survivors of the human race over and over.
i thought the same thing when he blanked her face out! love that story! i mean in a fucked up disturbing way. lol its dark.
Yea it took a lot of ideas from that short I’m surprised he didn’t mention it
This comment is a year old but I was thinking the same thing throughout the episode
@@specialknees6798 I'm glad I'm not the only one who saw it :3
@@ashe6255 I actually think that Daly taking Cole’s mouth away and leaving her unable to breathe or scream was a deliberate reference. Maybe not though
and that kids, is how i met your mother
I don’t get it
🤣🤣🤣
OH GOSH THEY'RE THE SAME ACTRESS HOLY FUCK
OMFG THAT REFERENCE-
I love you
i honestly love your explanation videos if you did explanations on classic literature i would literally levitate
yeahhhh
That truly is awesome hear! Thank you
@@BryceEdwardBrown I feel the same way, especially the literature you seem to be interested in/ familiar with. What are your thoughts on the Simpons' parody of "The Most Dangerous Game"?
I LOVED this episode. It had the traditional darkness of Black Mirror which I've come to rely on (and enjoy), but it also ended on a positive note for the tortured AI characters and I would honestly watch a series based on their experience in the updated game.
@@noahlenk5545 Yeah, I had heard that news a while back. It's great news! Can't wait.
Just realized Daly isn't Matt Damon, wow
😂
My theory was that these employees would do beta tests and hook into the "real" game. Then he could do a personality download while they are hooked in, unknown to them. Combine that with their DNA, you get a virtual clone.
Don't need DNA if they are doing physical measurements and pictures from different angles to define their avatars in the game. There is no actual cloning happening, just a depiction of virtual people. Your theory would have made a better explanation for how these virtual duplicates got created. Could have made a bigger deal of the use of AI to monitor the behavior of gamers using logs of years of playing an earlier version of game as to how the AI does such a great job of mimicking human reactions to what is done to the characters - including recognition that characters drawn from players avatars have a real person alter-ego outside the game leading to the unanticipated strategy of the computer to draw on its knowledge of real people to manipulate real employees of the company to help it win the game. This wasn't a happy ending. The AI has learned to manipulate real people to attack gamers it is competing against. Just wait until it learns to make prank SWAT calls on its opponents.
@@iansneddon2956 Genetic memory is a thing. Having somethings engrams would not be necessarily enough to replicate a person 1:1. It's why someone who never having seen a spider would have a fear of it, why fear of heights can be inherited, why some people are afraid of snakes. There are lots of human behaviors that were never learned, but clearly were inherited somehow.
Daniel Tsosie well no, if you were to watch the whole series, each episode is kinda self contained but interlocked overall. one point in time in their universe the cookies were created and as a result of the cookies, the vr game that this episode, san junipero, and striking vipers had were made. all he needed was the dna because he had a machine that took it and copied the consciences to the game, sort of like the cookies
I think it’s up to the parents to teach their kids about sex; they shouldn’t rely on the school system to do it for them.
did I miss something

@@jacobroberts6922 🤣🤣

Yo its been 4 years
Sed. I didn't want Daly to die, I just wanted him to freak out when he looked in to his mini fridge and found out all of the dna samples were gone. If he was going to stay stuck like that there was no need for them to blackmail Nanette to begin with. Although I get that they might have no way knowing that would happen.
he needs to die bec if he dont he will just get their DNA samples in the real world again and plant another clone to his ship again
@@vaultdweller123 Whatever. I don’t care if the clones die
@@kyt6087 I’m sure if there was a hypothetical situation where you were a clone in the near future you might care. They seem to feel pain, feel exactly the same as they do in their real life. Dale was a murderer really

I remember when I watched this one and my heart was racing while they were on their way to that hole , would have sucked if they didn't make it and that shithole gotten them , well deserved ending ..
GHOST FACE KILLER Most of them were innocent
@GHOST FACE KILLER No , he was mean even to his fan and that was pretty obvious , all the others didn't do anything to deserve this torture , he's a psychopath & a coward because he can't face them in the real world .
@GHOST FACE did the kid a bully ?
NO NOT WELL DESERVED ENDING !!! #JUSTICEFORDALY
Ziad SH all of us are cowards ina real world we all let certain shit slide in real life if we didnt all hell wud break loose, he just happened to find a way where he could release his anger towards these people without “actually” hurting them (which i am really torn by what “actually” means here but whatever i guess)
i guess black mirror did this "happy ending" episode for us viewers to prepare our minds for some really sad ending on the remaining episodes for this season.
It was not a happy ending. Its actually a dark ending.
Not happy, but it certainly could’ve gotten worse
Idk about being a digital clone of yourself being forever stuck in a game is a happy ending
Some of y'all just don't get it.
The fact the her face disappeared brought me back to one of my greatest fears of my childhood. I was a huge star trek nerd and the episode with the teen kid TERRIFIED me, especially the face removed thing. The ending of the episode confused me too. It was a nice drop of fear and nostalgia.
I was hesitant to watch this episode at first, concerned that the treatment of a known and beloved genre like this would not be done justice, but it's turned out to be one of my favorites. Even the impractical "duplicate the personality from DNA only" gaffe wasn't really an issue. Thank you for this wonderful analysis. I hadn't consciously recognized the ship (and controls, and camera, and lighting) upgrade from 1960's to 2010's but now that you point it out, it makes it even more awesome that they re-skinned the whole bridge for that scene. I enjoy your analyses very much. Thank you for creating them!
the weird thing is, they nailed the dissonance between the genre and the fans
tos Star trek was considered very progressive in it's time, even angering liberals and conservatives, but many fans latch onto the power fantasy parts like Kirk's womanizing and ignore the more radical aspects like black women being treated as equals
I did not know Kirsten Dunst was married to Jesse Plemons! I remember they played a married couple in Fargo Season 2. And they were great.
Wtf i literally watched this today and came here searching for the explanation... AND 2 HOURS LATER U POST IT
Maybe you are in the simulation which takes pity on you.
ME TOOO
Glad I could get it out in time!
Omg. It’s like, magic, or something. Millions of people watching this episode, and you happen to be one of them
j p is t
3 things to take away, 1. Respect people regardless of there personality, 2. Life is the bigger punishment than death, 3. Every bad situations will not remain the same, so just take risks and try to change it for good
One thing that pisses me off, if he could change physicality in the game like when he turned her into the mutant arachnid thing, at the end when he's pursuing the ship why doesnt he just stop it by snapping his fingers?
That’s a good point
Maybe he was so caught up in getting to the ship to think straight
I guess why he couldn't "end game" ,bc it was crashing. The game was deleted. Deleting him as well
Firewall deleted his code and everything that was in the world of his own server was deleted as well, it's like when you play a online game and suddenly it crashed and then you lose all your levels and loots and controls. In order to get it back you have to get the code running again, but since he's the only one who owns the game, no one can really get him out.
It seems to be implied or suggested that he has to be in close proximity, and otherwise he is using some form of editor tool ultimately so that might not be function of them.
Daly easily could've made his private universe such a better place. He could've told the new crew members that they were "brought out of stasis" and their memories are just strange dreams created by the stasis chamber. That way he could integrate them with them think the space sim was the real world.
this was the first episode i saw from the black mirror series and it completely hooked me to watch all 4 seasons from the beginning
So I’m confused, on netflix it started me of on season 5 and downward, is that normal?
I don't too often find myself rewatching episodes of shows, but this one was so masterfully done, I get called back to it time and again.
This is by far THE best episode of Black Mirror
It was the first episode of Black Mirror I watched and I was disappointed when I realized BM only does one episode per story. I would totally watch this show if they made it a standalone series
PLS MAKE IT HAPPEN
How could this be made into a show? What would be the plot?
@@YTonYahoo it could just be adventure
Aaron Paul’s voice is awesome. It took me just a second to recognize him.
From where I know him from bojack horseman
@@mixem979 breaking bad
I love your videos! You put so much thought and effort into them, keep up the great work :)
I absolutely LOVED this episode of Black Mirror. As a female gamer, you encounter men that express, "nice guys never win". You soon realize they aren't truly nice...they're wearing a mask and expect to be rewarded in the form of female attention. You can admire a guys intellect or verve, but it means nothing if he finds you attractive and you don't want to sleep with him. Guys like Daly are everywhere in the gaming community.
Which is why you never trust a "male feminist"...their just bullshiting to get close because a woman wouldn't talk to them otherwise. Pretty much much same for most men who are left leaning...
As a guy I can confirm that the amount of incels in the gaming community is insane
@@Casper5 yea because they sit around spending all their time playing video games. And then get mad because women don't desire them. Even though they have quite literally made themselves undesirable.
You say this like it's some kind of massive surprise. Yes, men will be nice to women they like to try to get their attention. Introverted guys who are unattractive and have low social skills do this on the internet. No wonder they're bitter and angry when women like you will imply that they're bad people for doing it.
I called him “Fatt Damon” the whole time!!!
Oh my
I think you are above fat shaming my friend XD
Grace Haven lol it was a joke, no harm no foul. Would you prefer “Ginger Matt Damon”? Or Matt Damon (PLUS)

Glad I could help!
You could also compare this episode to the twilight zones "five characters in search of an exit" where you see the newest member freaking out and doing nothing but trying to escape but the others have been through it and they know how it goes ( I didnt even notice how alike it was to "its a good life") love it
I...have been waiting.
Ugh you're amazing!
Thank you, you’re too kind
In the end the real Nanette Cole must have think, she murdered Daly on Christmas because she changed this button!
EXACTLYYY
Everyone's saying it's a happy ending but the real life Nannette Cole will live with the guilt of killing Daly forever
not just the guilt of killing him, the AIs basically framed her.
She's so fucked for no reason.
@@REDDAWNproject that's why i don't get ppl that say its a happy ending
AIs murdered a whole human being and now the pizza guy and the real nannette are in trouble
@@aanuadeyemi9711 They didn’t murder him, they killed him in self defense to protect themselves and free themselves from him. Physical Nannette is definitely fucked though.
Yea nothing happy about the ending , infact those AI are pretty dangerous if you think about it, they reached out in the real world framed a real person that ended in a murder.
Wait... I know why Daly inspires much more awe in his game than in reality : just give him a hair brush and take his glasses off.
He visually improves himself in the simulation. His skin is clearer and his hair is back. The simulation is a clear display of what Daly wants to look like
This was the first ever episode that I watched and it messed. me. up. after I got done, I just sat in my bed contemplating what I just watched and I was like " do I really wanna get myself into this series?"
Wait till you give the earlier seasons a watch
Omara Oliver oh I’ve already watched every other episode. I was just sayin this episode opened my eyes as to what I was getting myself into lmao
One thing people don’t realise in the episode is that Nannette messed up her real life version as well. Real life daly will die in real life as he can’t exit the game. If any surveillance CCTV footage of his room was found by the police then real life Nanette would be in trouble. If she is not found by the police then she caused herself lifelong trauma of killing a person.
So righttt
How did she kill him? The camera will show he went into the game and never woke up. That had nothing to do with her. Also the digital crew had made contact with the outside world so Daly's crimes would have come to light.
@@Leo-xg2zgshe will blame herself for him dying
@devinthesupersmosher nah. He was a psychopath. Remember, he tortured her in his video game. She would have found out about his criminal activity since the crew made contact with the outside world once they left the wormhole.
Proof? Tommy's lollipop was in the episode, Black Museum, as evidence of a crime scene.
Love the vid as always!
I am yearning for the new season's episodes' analysis though I gotta say, but either way keep em coming man, Awesome stuff
Thank you AlaskaBoyAlex, I think you'll like the next one coming up
I’m a huge Star Trek fan and I thought this episode was great. Totally saw it as a love letter to both the original series and the new Abrams films while also giving us another twisted tale.
Too me
I feel bad for the guy who gets stuck in spaceship at the end
Why?
I really appreciate your Black Mirror Explained Videos 🙂
I really appreciate this comment
Amazing video as always, Bryce! Keep 'em coming!
Thank you Probably Not Captain America, hearing this kind of stuff is incredible!
idk why people are so happy about this episodes ending in my opinion it is one of the scariest episodes of black mirror
I just thought it was fucked up when they were planning the whole thing of escaping and removing the DNA sample source from the fridge because if in the event that Daly didn't get stuck in space, wouldn't he just be able to get them back there if he's able to get like coffee cups or candies from them again?
H No, they most likely would've contacted the cyber police as what he was doing is like not allowed and since it takes like 18 hours to clone them back in again the police would've catched him by then
@@2004ale weird, like why wouldnt he just have a backup file. Idk this episode was ok, but again Ye its sci-fi
This was the first episode of Black Mirror I watched. Thanks for pointing out some things I didn’t notice :)
I didnt need any of these endings explained but i still love these vids!
I don’t get why Daily did not just use his “mind” to teleport to the ship instead trying to use that shuttle. What did I miss there? I mean he can use force shoke and transform people into bugs but has no power over choosing a spawning point?
Yeah I wondered that too. I thought he controlled everything
Eli Society no after they the characters escaped through the wormhole that space fleet mod was basically a bug thats was shut down. think of it as mod you have on GTA or Minecraft but its no lomger available to play through in a latest update.
tyler pham Yeah but I asked before they escaped through the wormhole. He could just imagine to teleport into the ship and kill em all. Instead he went into the shuttle and tried to keep up with em. oO
bQoo plot purposes
The episode let it to believe he needs to be in close proximity to do that. Didn't one of the crew said he needed to be in the ship or something?
Love it. Love your video's. Just love it. Thanks.
Thank you so much!
i love your black mirror analysis videos so much wow thank u for the content king
You are too kind Maya DLC, thank you!
i’m literally binge watching black mirror and coming here after 😭
me after every episode , ive been unintentionally spacing a few months in between seasons because this show is not a passive watch type of death at allllll
3 DAYS AGO?? How did I miss this??
I was really looking forward to this episode, USS Callister is one of my favourites. You mentioned some really intereating points, beautiful analysis as always. I love this series. Thanks!
Than you EFoxKitsune! That's awesome to hear!
Imagine if your sims killed you for drowning them in a pool. this episode has a bad ending. Daly didnt hurt anyone , he didnt deserve to die.
Didn’t hurt anyone? He held them hostage
Yess omg ive been waiting for this!!!!
Hope you like it!
So he tortured ted mosbys dead wife
????????
That makes no sense
Daniel Bahzad the actor is played by Cristin Milioti, who played Ted Mosbys dead wife in how I met your mother
@Sivvan Sharma Oh yeahhhh
Finally, I've been waiting on this one for months
Sorry to keep you waiting, hope you like it!
@@BryceEdwardBrown no, thank you for bringing this hear, I always love your videos
most interesting thing though, this episode also shows the other episode "white christmas" almost being hypocritical.
i mean in white christmas instead of actually punishing the real life person who did the crime, they instead torture the copied AI by making him listen to a christmas song on loop for thousands of years, but talk as though it's just AI. even when the guy forced the copy of the girl to serve as a house program to make toast. again, most of the humans in the episode don't care. only one person from what was spoken of, saying it was "barbaric" so in a way the guy who accidentally committed murder has a heart over those who didn't. strange.
however in this episode they focus the entire thing on how even though they're just AI it's wrong and they should be set free without torture.
what a great analysis!!! nice perspective
you and your breakdowns are awesome
Thank you!
OMG thank you I was looking for this
Hope you like it!
This was easily one of my favorite episodes
Amazing breakdown!!
Thank you!
i love these videos so much
Really nicely done, although I kinda missed the background music. You always have some upbeat background music and here it was barely audible, would love to hear it more in the next one, it adds so much to your abrupt way of talking!
yeah as soon as I saw the update I was like "oh haha" because it was so obviously reboot style
Incredible episode; that last scene was epic! Includes a close up of a character, looking directly at the camera, that's normally a no-no, but here, it works just fine.
I completely agree!
You deserve more fans and love for how amazing your videos are
Thank you so much Trash Goblin, luckily I have awesome people like you watching
if Daly had God-like powers , how come he was chasing them at the end? couldn't he have used his hands to command the entire ship to go to him?
I think that Nanette's character took his controller during their excursion on the pool planet. So he no longer had his power.
He wasn't omnipotent.
That's true. He actually did have the controller. He could've teleported himself to the main ship.
It’s the first black mirror episode I enjoyed and ended up not liking since it’s unrealistic from the moment that Nanette enters the world realistically he would’ve never lost since he is literally god in this universe. But oh well I guess they knew people would eat it up because the good ending
Really liked how you specifically informed us about the spoilers. Internet needs more people like you.
Who needed the ending explained? It was pretty obvious. Jessie chased off the other meth dealers and established his own territory to sell off Mr. White's product. Pretty simple to understand.
A man is dead. That's the fact. He got bullied by everyone in real life, everyone was a jerk to him. He just saw this game as an escape from real life, it was just his imagination and he ended up dead.
A man is dead. What he did in game was bad but he was harmless in real life. His death is not justified.
A man is dead but yet everyone's seeing this as an happy ending. Ngl I felt bad for him.
I feel like its not a bad ending but not a happy one either
He knew that the clones he made in the game felt pain and had conscious thoughts of suffering. What a psychopath. I wasn't even sad when he died. Then again, this opinion differs person to person
@@fd3
so are you saying it justified to play a game like the sims with evil intent and get killed by computer code (that he made himself?)
no it isn't. he created that game. he created a space where he can let out his frustrations and shape his own social life in a harmless reality. there is nothing psychopathic about it.
the fact you sympathize with computer code over a human being (causing no harm) is outright wrong.
@@TheDon741 Eh now that you mention it, I think you're right. But then again, this episode makes it seem like he is the bad guy so that a lot of people sympathize the computer code so . . . I guess it's . . . I don't know. I'm a very sympathetic person and originally thought it was wrong, but now looking back at it and your comment, it's pretty chilling.
@@TheDon741 What is the difference between a mechanical and a biological brain? There is none. The AI in that game were clearly sentient and deserve human rights.
I guess you would also be the cop in white Christmas who feels no remorse in torturing an AI for thousands of years.
This episode has the most direct ending in the series. I dont know why though i still watch this LOL
Man I love this episode. Although i don't think it as a happy ending for the crew in uss callister. After all, they're conscious digital clone who are aware of a real life they had before in physical world, right? Truth is, they are stuck in an infinitely cool game , but not free, can never be. Unless their conscious stream somehow manages to merge with their real bodies lol . This gives me hope about the future of gaming .
Suggest me some similar tv show like this
THE 13TH FLOOR (1999)
Everyone knows about Matrix but this movie is a hidden gem.
The same with Identity (2003): When Mr. Robot came out everyone was mentioning Fight Club and that's it.
PANDORUM (2009)
One of my favorites, barely anyone saw it.
THE GIRL IN THE PARK (2007)
THE BROKEN (2008)
THE IMPOSTER (2012)
COLOSSAL (2016)
BEFORE I WAKE (2016)
THE ROOM (2019)
US (2019)
THE PRODIGY (2019)
There are many ways to manifest a personality/soul/living being in the "real" world.
In most cases this is done by taking over someone elses body.
The only way they could've been truly set free is if the whole program was simply deleted.
@@MavalocKing5050 why it's a good ending is they're not done with Stuck up players, but *no-one* will ever have the level of power over them that Daley did.
Love your videos!
Thank you!
Didn't notice that it was actually Tracy McConnell/Cristin Milioti from How I Met Your Mother until a few days ago. Now I can't unsee Tracy's personality on Nanette
You deserve more subs
You are incredible
Nanette has those deer in headlight eyes and they are so pretty
From all episodes, we enjoiyed that one the most! I liked this, since it also got some humor!
Hi, sorry I'm late. Still in the ad. Just wanted to say I loved this episode this much. It's just so much.
Robert is definitely what we would call a "Nice Guy".
But I'm not
I'm asking this with complete sincerity. What could he have done irl to make his life better or to be better with women. I feel like him a lot of the time.
I thought that was Matt Damon the entire time.
Please do white bear. I want to hear your take on it. Thank you. Excellent work on all the other episodes 😊.
thanks for doing this! i know it’s a straight forward episode but i like watching you break down all the references and parallels in the episode, it’s just cool to see the inspiration behind the episodes.thank you, have a nice day :)
Thank you so much Brooke! I'm glad you like the analysis
