"That's Bartosz! That's an insane casting"
and that's why I love this channel
Yeah I had the same reaction casting is insane
I know he is just way too much into it 😀But still I have to ask: how did he know this was Bartosz? Just the good casting? Because I only understood this end of season 3 myself! 😀
@3:21 "That's 86 Claudia's voice though." That man... 😀
@@maspleben just too on the nose as well as the good casting. Haven’t even finished season 3 n yeah that’s Bartosz
@@maspleben He just really looks like Bartosz. I wasn't as sure when I watched 2x01, but I suspected it as well. The casting is A+++.
In episode 1 Ulrich says "the apocalypse is upon us" because the lines at the bakery are long. Aleksander says "everything here will come to an end here soon", which is obviously about the power plant, but obviously also about the apocalypse.
There are other instances. The slogan 'No Future' also comes to mind. Etc etc
Dark is such a special, special series!
I feel like I've been waiting most of my life for a series like this to come along!!
It's a pleasure watching with you :)
the thumbmail is "i understood that reference" meme
In regards to the calendar - it's actually just an error. They did a reshoot later, so the 21st is crossed off in the latest version.
Though I remember it was a major talking point when the episode was released. People had similar ideas as you, some had the alternate timeline theory, some thought it represented that the loop isn't completely closed and can have some deviation. Turns out it was just a production error lol
IIRC it was digitally added. And really quickly, too.
Where is the "latest version"? Shouldn't it be on Netflix?
@@MeiTanteixX Yeah, I was referring to the current version on Netflix.
Saw your comment on Patreon 👌🏼 Yep, it appears that my 4K version is the first version with the error.
@MasterOnion North Yeah, the only problem with this is that it kind of breaks the idea of "everything is happening now" that the show utilizes. The idea that future and past is relative. The loop isn't really a "loop" in the sense that characters aren't being reborn. They talk about "the next cycle" often, but there should only be one cycle, they just have an illusion of multiple cycles because they are interacting with themselves at different points in time. But it's just one tangled sequence of events. How would the timeline even be recursive? Like, at what point does it "restart"? Because we never see this. Every character and object has a beginning and end-point, the problem is that these beginnings and endings influence each other, but notice that only information ever gets bootstrapped. Jonas is born, grows up, and dies. His actions cause his birth, but he still has a death. Jonas never gets to experience a "new" cycle because a new cycle doesn't exist. Theoretically.
I've seen some people try to reconcile the discrepancies in S3E7 with this by arguing that the montage took place in different timelines.
That over the shoulder shot of Stranger Jonas with his beard hidden sold it for me. I never payed attention to it until you pointed it out. Picking up new things each time.
The way Jonas52 just morphs into Jonas19, and Jonas19 morphs into Jonas52 is absolutely insane!
Everytime I watch it still makes me go "HOW???"
It's completely next level shit.
Dark has raised the bar so high It may be a very long time before we see anyone else rise to the occasion!
It might be very hard to rise to their occasion, too. Maybe that's going to be their best show, because the nature of the story really shows off their writing.
@@connectingthedots100 My mind defies the idea that 1899 might be even better than DARK. I mean how? How would they do that?
He hasn't seen anything as far as casting yet. Their casting dept should have won every award in the book. Critics praise The Crown for its casting, Dark blows it right out of the water, imo.
@@michaelklaus It definitely will be different.
Knew you were going to love that opening scene after watching the last episode discussion. A hell of a lot more surprises to come.
Season 2 of Dark is incredible, you're in for a treat!
Lmao the thumbnail is the Leonardo DiCaprio meme😂
Dark is totally becoming his favourite show, isn't it?
My sister, who actually got me into Dark, didn't even make the connection you did about the characters in the intro! She forgot about it, and when I was like, "that was Bartosz and Noah killed him" she was like 😶 lol
I immediately watch 75% of everything you upload. Man I'm seriously considering to start watching the Doctor Who show as well so i can check out your reactions.
I would recommend it the show is amazaing and his reactions to it too
Highly recommend doing that. Major Whovian here 🙋🏼♀️💙
Same
I very much enjoy watching your reaction to DARK. Love seeing your excitement, attention for details and listening to your well thought out theories. A perfect match for this series.
I'm so excited for you to watch every single episode of this series, your enthusiasm is great! This series really suits you!
YES this is my favourite season. But DARK only gets better !
Season 2 is genuine perfection, everything you want out of a second season
Season 2 let's gooooo! The disquiet of the post-apocalyptic world is captured so well. I watched some videos posted by the actual owner of the Kahnwald house, and iirc a lot of the demolished, overgrown look on the house exterior was done practically, so the house had to go through a considerable amount of damage 😅 It has been renovated slightly at present, particularly the roof, but the owner did a smart thing where he offered individual roof tiles for sale, the OG Kahnwald house roof tiles, with unique number plates, neatly boxed with a certificate of authenticity! I'm not sure if you can still buy them but I was both impressed and amused by the idea. A great collector's item for Dark fans if you ask me 😂
Some additional observation on the Kahnwalds if you're interested: Notice the date, it's June 21 (across all timelines), and idk if many people remember, but it's the day Michael hung himself. In 2053, Jonas wakes up, and the first thing he does is look at his father's letter again, because he knows what date it is, and later, he visits the graveyard and places the family photo there. It's basically all he has left to offer, in this post apocalyptic world. For Hannah in 2020, it has been exactly one year, and she has the additional pain of her son's disappearance besides her husband's death...aaand let's not forget that Ulrich is missing as well. I think after eight months of disappearance, she has very little hope left of getting either of them back, which partially might've been why she was ready to shoot herself later in the episode. Yes, we all know what she's like, but like you said, I agree that her redeeming qualities center around her love for her son, and she was clearly hurting. It wasn't great to see her at such a low point in life. And I also think Stranger Jonas chose to return home on that day because he might have felt that it was best to reunite with his mum as she had been alone for too long and it was a particular day she shouldn't have to face alone - it's his mum, after all. He probably was in Winden for those few months trying to make up his mind on what to do after he failed to destroy the wormhole, and I'm glad he was back, just in the nick of time really. Brilliant acting by both Maja Schöne and Andreas Pietschmann in the scene when they reunited.
If Hannah is personality disordered, as in narcissism, it would make sense that she feels suicidal when she has nobody left who could reflect her importance back to her. However, I think Jantje wrote her character from observing such traits and not a clinical understanding of that disorder. Which is why her character is slightly contradictory. Understandably, though. She is an artist not a doctor. And Bo and Jantje are human after all. Lol
@@connectingthedots100
Could you elaborate on the contradiction if possible without discussing stuff that hasn't been seen in the reaction series so far? What did you see and
what perspective are you coming from?
Well she would not be able to really care about Jonas. Unless she could use him to maintain grandiose delusions about herself which all narcissists need like the air to breathe. "Love" for a narcissist would be "oh he is great, because he is like me". If they convey love there is a whole lot of acting and overdoing involved, because they don't feel it. But obviously there is more to come.
@@connectingthedots100 I think Hannah displays all of these characteristics. I found it difficult to believe she really loves Jonas, except as a mirror for herself. She just never seems to love anyone else ! All her thoughts and decisions come from her own desires and emotions .
Bruh I remember having to wait 2 years for this episode after Season 1
Your thoughtful, passionate reactions are such a joy to watch!
I just want to say I watch all of the video from start to end i just put it on while I do chores or work
So glad you are watching with the correct subtitles. So many reactors don't realize that the other ones aren't as accurate.
God-tier casting, indeed!
Man.. I guess I am going patreon.. 10 minutes of this brilliant reaction isn't enough while I can get the full hour..
It is the toughest show I have ever edited, it’s excruciating to some how edit it down to 10 minutes. There is just so much packed into an episode, and everything feels so important as well. So it comes down to picking one important scene over another important scene.
Lol long story short, Dark Full Length is the best time to be a Patron.
@@_FILMBuFF_ See you next month on Patreon.
Everything is connected 😎
i honestly would too if the currency difference didn't make me poor
its so disgusting how good the casting is, like how are they that good haha.
The fact that you figured out that that was Bartosz just by his face is amazing. I've never heard or seen anyone figure that out before.
Edit: By anyone I meant any other reactor
Never been on reddit?
SPOILER
Oh actually quite a few.
has that been confirmed yet? Surely this comment counts as a spoiler?
(I fully agree though)
@@Futurepointmusic I agree. I set my comment to "spoiler"
Just wondering, who are ur fav characters on this show? I remember you saying you like mikkel, bartosz, ulrich (maybe?), and that you were really interested in claudia, but do u have a top 5 character list or something? Maybe you go more in depth on patreon, but I'd just like to hear more about which characters you personally like the best. With an ensemble like Dark's, its probably really hard to choose though lol
Love your intro with the scrolling portraits! This is the first time I noticed them, duh, unless they're new.
It has been a thing for a while and I still love it.
It’s been there since the beginning, but now I was able to extend it with more key frames from the wall of photos 👌🏼
@@_FILMBuFF_ I'm a little embarrassed for not noticing and appreciating it before, but good to know it's a little different now which must have struck me.
44:25 haha it's a bootstrap paradox 😂 yeah there's just too much to talk about.

Excellent discussion. The missing cross on the calendar and Martha's horns were news to me. Will check on it.
it's actually a production error as far as I am aware, which is crazy to say about Dark
@@Futurepointmusic Thanks, I just read it. I do know about a couple more of mistakes. I might be this die hard fan, but I almost like it. It's just a reminder how hard it was to tell this near perfect story.
You can drill down just so far. I read a post from someone who lives in the area of filming who complained that the leaves weren't right for the time of year in the show. hehe.
How do feel about the intro? Many people don't skip it, because it somehow sets the mood for Dark.
Back in season 1 he said he didn't want to watch the intro because of spoilers since it contains footage from the show. I remember I left a comment about why I thought it was alright for him to watch them without really being spoiled. I don't know why he changed his mind but happily he seems to have done so.
Your enthusiasm for the characters and the show is great :)

Funny how back then calendar was considered a production error but it actually makes sense within season 3 lore, or at least one interpretation of the story that includes slight variations between cycles that let to the end of it
Please watch The Expanse after you've finished Dark. Based on your comments about the types of things you enjoy at the end of the video, I have no doubt that you will love it. It's also the perfect show for someone with an analytical mind like yours, because everything from the beginning to the end matters on some level.
Imagine if Hannah killed herself so jonas would have both his parents committing suicide
It would have broke him even more
ive been looking forward to your reaction to the bartosz casting for so long haha
Love the thumbnail 😂
Of course my man would know NIN work on Quake!
3:21 I usually keep pointing this out since people are overwhlemed with reading the subs. But not you.
7:30 And you are watching the show with the proper subs, yeah.
16:36 Well we do keep calling him Stranger-Jonas too.
I think I am the only one who keeps calling old Claudia apocalypse-Claudia though.
21:45 I mean... let me quote from episode one: "Die Frage ist nicht wie. Die Frage ist wann."
You might know how the things turn out but throughout the show you learn when they happened. And only after that you can ponder the question if anything could have gone differently. And than again after that you can try understand why the things go differently or not.
And how everything is connected.
22:05 Well... I guess the main inspiration is the Chernobyl Exclusion Zone. Which is a thing even outside of Stalker
22:35 Well and now you are applying the causal determinism to the show that should still be under debate. The way Noah explained it in the season one finale, both sides are actively upholding the causal chain of events. Claudia presumably does not want to change anything while Sic Mundus seemingly does so in an effort to change the timeline in their favor.
I mean... I can totally see why one should assume that Noah doesn't know s**t about how this works.
Just saying you should still try to figure out if your assumption is correct.
Ah a Tarkovski fan! I love Solaris!
Honestly I’d love to see your reaction to better call Saul
1:05:10 Did you ever got the chance to play Death Stranding? I remember watching your reaction to a trailer years ago.
Yep, launch day 👌🏼 new Kojima joint is a big deal! Some of the 2053 lonely Jonas scenes reminded me of Death Stranding as well.
Yeh! 🎉
How did you recognize Bartosz? :-D I could not! I know you can be prepared for anything and anyone in a show about time travelling, but they show you this ripped guy with a full on tattoo in 1921 and you go: "Yep, it's Bartosz". REALLY??? You are way too good for the show to make these connections yourself, it is supposed to be a future reveal/surprise. But that should not ruin your experience, you are just very good ;-) So Noah killed Bartosz, in 1921? Noted.
First....finally🤞🏽
Early
Foreshadowing is top tier
SPOILERS
9:58 Jonas looking at the spot where Martha dies 😭
@MasterOnion North explain why
@MasterOnion North but I put a spoiler warning, I don’t understand your problem.
