Guest Benedict Cumberbatch Posted April 13, 2009 Share Posted April 13, 2009 » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « i watched all 3 in a row last night and the making of too. wasn't expecting much and yo know what I thought it was alright. felt a little sloppy in places but didnt it always? the landing sequence felt very out of character for all of them. the despair squid ending was lazy. the blade runner references were too many. there was lots wrong with it but for an hour and a half of my life i enjoyed it. rimmer banging his nuts on the table was pure slapstick lol. easily amused i guess. i dont think i really want them to make anymore though. pigster is right that they could have come up with something better in all the time they've had. like why wasnt this a movie? that they really planned out? enjoyable but not that enjoyable.

Guest ezkerraldean Posted April 13, 2009 Share Posted April 13, 2009 haven't seen but i heard it's shit. The Times absolutely slated it too. Curses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Stoppit Posted April 13, 2009 Share Posted April 13, 2009 I avoided reading new posts on this thread until I'd seen all 3 episodes...which I have now done. When I said The big tentacle monster just made me want to watch 'Back to Reality' (the one with the suicide squid), which is one of the best episodes ever. I didn't expect it to actually be another hallucination-inducing squid. I didn't like the self-referential stuff, or the blade runner references...or any of it really.

Guest melotronic Posted April 13, 2009 Share Posted April 13, 2009 also something i forgot to mention that struck me » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « the whole bit with the typewriter and controlled reality etc was better and more fleshed out in a few seconds-worth of stupid cuddly toy antics in adam and joe's "tufty club" (piss-take on fight club with toys) which says a lot really as to the quality of the newer writing.

Guest Gary C Posted April 14, 2009 Share Posted April 14, 2009 Oh yeah, I watched this earlier, and yeah, it unsurprisingly sucked. The only really good bits occurred when the crew had just entered our reality and the comments they made on our technology. Meh, just meh. I should imagine there will be another special, if not, another series. I'll probably watch that too, and also be unsurprised with how much it sucks. On the subject of the laugh track, I can only imagine that in post-production they made two versions (one with canned laughter) and decided to go without. To be fair, canned laughter would've probably got as much bad-press as a lack of canned laughter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blir Posted April 16, 2009 Share Posted April 16, 2009 I couldn't make it through the entire first episode. I've been a fan of Red Dwarf since I was a littlun and this depressed me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
