As An Autobot Currently Living Secretly Amongst Fleshbots I Found This Representation Of Our Society Quite Idealistic.
No Mention Is Made Of The Ongoing Culture Of Non Consensual Oil Draining, The Patriarch Vertical Authority, The Refusal To Aknowledge That Even If I Was Born An Autobot, I Do Not Identify As Such Anymore.
The Autobot Society Is Here Represented To You Naive Fleshbots As One Of Justice And Moral Integrity.
You Have Been Decieved.
The Maximals Are No Better.
Don't Support This Revisionist Take On Our Existance On This Planet.
China Is Were We Are All Born, And That Comes With Ties that Should Not Be Ignore.
Help Us.

Everything about this was amazing : the story, the cinematography, the scenery, the acting, the casting. Dark, gloomy, gritty, grim, this is what the world looked like, almost a fantasy for us in our sanitized versions of the past, through Holywood.
But for all those strenght, the greatest ones really are the story and scenery, extremely immersive, with drama and action on several scales of the social ladder, which reminded me of the Warhammer campaign "The Enemy Within", and especially the chapter "Power Behind the Throne". Indeed, you could perfectly adapt this to a low fantasy Warhammer setting, and get the greatest visual inspiration.
Just a perfect series IMHO.

This looked kinda good, except for the silly pearled needles. But this had zero sexual ambiguity, zero actual moral ambiguity, or philosophying about pain, pleasure, sex, ego, as what made the uneven original so interesting.
The story made little sense, as it was way too patchy.
All in all, this was a mess, and one that failed to capture attention. Even the gore special effects failed to generate squirm or any real unease.
It's like the real inspiration for this was Hellraiser 3. Actually, when I think of it, even the skinned flesh looked plastic, when you get to see it in light, towards the end, they managed to have the cenobites look like toys, rather than the sexual dirty beings of the first movie.
Lastly, yes, the end, how hte writers must have htought htey came up with a clever sort of twist, straight out of a first trimester of creative writer classroom, brfore a pointless epilogue that doesn't add anything to the story. And again failed to provoke.
A huge waste of potential, in my opinion.
