  • I have combined S2 Ep 4 and 5 together of The Expanse, because they did deserve to be watched together. What an epic series. Never saw any of this coming! And even though I am finishing up season 3 I still have no idea where the show is going. But I am thoroughly entertained.

    The scene of the death of Miller with "Julie" is so well written ... I think everyone who watched this got emotional.

    As a physicist and an engineer who works in the space field, I can't begin to tell you how excited I was at Miller's plan to use the Nauvoo. Quite aside from how hilarious it is for Miller to straight up troll the Mormons like that, the astrodynamics involved in the manoeuvre alone are a stroke of brilliance! I also can't begin to tell you how hard my jaw hit the floor when Eros "dodged" the Nauvoo without any thrusters as the Protomolecule showed its hand and broke the laws of physics in the process. And then it made itself radar-proof?!? Crazy stuff!
    These episodes are such a thrill ride. It's amazing to see plot threads converge and characters meet at last, with Chrisjen and Holden getting to talk. It's so sad to see Miller go out, but I honestly can't think of a finer end for him. He got to meet Julie at long last, saved the Earth, and earned Holden's respect all in one go. Not a bad way to die. That being said, he hasn't stopped "the work" as Julie called it, merely redirected it to Venus, so it should be interesting for you to see where that leads...

      I'm not a physicist or anything, my biggest "issues" is that i find it somewhat hard to believe that the Nauvoo wouldn't just completely disintegrate upon hitting Eros. Also i find it hard to believe that it'd cancel out the orbit of Eros' upon impact, and then fall into the sun. But i'm saying that with the caveat that my understand of orbital mechanics comes from Kerbal Space Program(granted i've played it A LOT).
      It's still a FANTASTIC few episodes.

      @@TehIdiotOne In another comment section for another reactor, a commenter wth the required orbital mechanics software avaialbe to him made some estimates of the size and speed of the Nauvoo and the size and the orbit of Eros, and plugged date into the software and ran a simulation. He reported that the collision would knock Eros out of its orbit, and into an elliptical orbit which would degrade after about six circuits around Sol and fall into our sun after about six months. That all depends upon the assumption made as to the data, so the details are probably inaccurate, but the one thing that is certain is that the collision would not knock Eros on a beeline directly into the sun.

      @@bernardsoul5186 The problem is that whatever way you slice it, Eros is tens of thousands of times more massive than the Nauvoo. Which means that even if you can plot the orbit so that the Nauvoo can be building up speed for a long-ass time and indeed be accelerating all the way to a head-on impact, you'd still need the thing to be doing... well, a non-trivial fraction of lightspeed to impart enough energy to reduce it's orbital speed by much.

    The doctor on the ship, he was on the News in 2x1 when Miller and Jim were in the Medbay talking about the humanitarian crisis. Basically he belonged to a 23rd century version of Doctors without Borders.
    I remember on reactor way back at the beginning of the expanse, who was a massive Miller fan, her commentary of 2.4 was just her muttering No for the minutes when Miller was waiting for the Navou.... and then after 2.5, she tore into her viewers for not warning her and just left her devestated......she didn't really mean it, but was just so overwhelmed at the time

    The irony of Pierre Mao trying so hard to understand and research the proto-molecule, but his daughter being it and in control of it is some beautiful writing.

    Ok, I usually don't like romance. But the ENTIRE scene where Miller and Julie spend their final moments is the single best romantic scene of all time. In their last moments spent alone together, they are truly vulnerable, and give each other love that was worth a lifetime. This scene always tugs my heartstrings every time I watch it.

  • @caseybean1305
    @caseybean1305 2 месяца назад +1

    As, I previously posted, Miller is going through an existential crisis. Never is that more apparent to me than in his final scene with Julie. He tells her that she gave an old cynic new hope. Not exactly those words, but that meaning. It is a BEAUTIFUL parting scene for one of the best characters. Also, like you and probably most Expanse fans I didn't like Miller at first. However, he grows on you 😜 Combination of great writing and acting
    I do find it funny (not in a laughing at you way, just a curious one) that you will refer to him as Joe. That is his name, fully it's Josephus Miller. But you almost never hear it. It's almost always just... MILLER!!... often screamed😂
    So, I was for a fraction of a second, lost when you called him Joe. And then my little brain kicked in and said...Oh! Miller 😆

    Wonderful reaction, and such a contrast to another reactor who recently published these episodes. Big generalisation, but women and empathetic people "get this" way more than many guys and more analytical people. You were moved by this and saw all the beautiful nuances. Some people see an old creepy guy lusting after a vulnerable girl and taking advantage. I guess we're all different! I've always liked the SG's line about the caterpillar and the butterfly. I don't think I've seen anyone link it so tightly to the whole Eros and Julie situation before. Bravo!
    Miller's journey of renewed faith, hope and belief is similarly reflected in what the Mormon on the transport ferry said to Miller before he gets to Eros back in S1. There was also the line from Dawes about when Miller finally finds his home and will be welcomed by it. I don't think I have seen another series with such deeply linked, yet subtle writing that connects episodes sometimes even several seasons apart.

    We had seen that French doctor before. Back in the first episode of the season when Miller and Holden were in the Roci medbay getting their cancer meds, that doctor was on a newscast in the background imploring the UN to send a medical mission to Eros....the camera focused on him for a few seconds. That was the first time Holden has killed anyone by his own volition (I don't think he even managed to hit anyone in the melee escaping Eros). What made it worse, these weren't even bad guys. What made it even worse than that, their deaths turned out to be unnecessary.
    I think that extra dose of radiation Dresden gave Julie's body may have had something to do with imprinting her consciousness strongly on the Protomolecule. There's also another likely reason to be discussed later, but if you're finishing season 3, you may realize what that is.
    Dawes told Miller: "When you have lost everything, you will find your way home, and it will welcome you." Miller told Semi: "Julie is all I have." Then, he lost Julie. He found his way "home" with Julie, hence the real meaning of the title of the episode. Personally, I thought the kiss was over the top. Miller had sealed his commitment to Julie when he took off his face plate and took that deep breath. He hadn't had such a relationship with Julie that a kiss should happen. We've heard that the kiss was ad libbed by the actors and was not part of the script.
    This was the end of Book One. As you've probably realized, Book Two ends halfway through season 3 and Book Three is the last half of season 3. Book Three is highly compressed because the writers suspected it would be the series finale.

      If one of the doctors on that ship was infected, or had protomolecule on their suit - which is possible, even probable, stopping them getting away was necessary. Killing them to stop them broadcasting the truth turned out to be unnecessary, but not the possible contagion angle.

    6 seasons, roughly one per book. There are 3 more books, but they take up after a 30 year gap, so ending the show at the end of S6 is a good choice.
    I had the exact same reaction to Miller as a character as you did, when I read the first book in the series, long before there was a show. I disliked him at the start, then as he fought to find Julie he became my fav, then I was devastated by the book ending.

    The Expanse is the only show in existence where the main character kills humanitarian aid workers, and that's character developement.
    Holden starts the show as an idealist. And the idealist in Holden slowly starts to die when he kills these completely innocent people. Idealist Holden wanted to chase the Anubis, and would have gottan everyone killed. Idealist Holden would have refused to kill the Martians who were going to board Rocinante (Donkeyballs) and would have gotten his crew imprisoned.
    If idealist Holden doesn't kill these people, they could carry a strain of protomolecure to a whole other place.
    So they either stop, let them board the vessel and hold them until it's over, or die, immediately, before they could lure others in and make the situation more dangerous, or do any further harm in their ignorance.
    It was a massive trolley problem where Holden used the best bad solution, because it's possible there are millions on the other railway.
    During the first season and half, Holden's idealism starts to crack so he could become the person he needs to be, and to what everyone else who depends on him need him to be. The moron who wanted to chase the Anubis needed to die so the man who went back for his team on the Donnager could save the system from fatal mistakes of well-meaning ignorance.

    The problem with faith, the search to regain hope, is that you sometimes pin your belief in the wrong people, the ones that offer easy solutions to make things Great Again. Here symbolized by Erenwright and Mao, men with a faulty view of the world, who make thing worse by trying to bend reality to their will. There is rarely an easy solution to a complex problem, but they try to make things better for a few at the expense of the masses. Martian culture is similarly myopic, most Martians just want a better life for their children and their children, but the elite want power and see conflict as their solution of making things better.
    Good Sci-fi isn't about lasers and space ships, it's about how to deal with the human condition and the consequences of making poor decisions. Star Trek, instead of trying to understand Klingons and Romulans they went to war. Star Wars, they allowed the old Republic to become bloated and corrupt, making a demagogue like Palpatine inevitable. The easy solutions people, if they succeed, end up living in a nightmare world like the Hunger Games or the Handmaid's Tale.
