Hello, friend. God, that's always been lame, hasn't it?

We feel that enforcing strict measures on the spoilers rule is no longer necessary since the show has been completed for some time now.

"We were like reddit people"
THEY NOTICE US OMFG
Notice me, senpai!
I DIED
Portia is officially the GOAT
my exact exclamation!
Damn you're fast
notice me too :)
I now realise .doc stood for documentary.
Damn, I didn't even pick up on that. Nice observation to all who noticed.
isn't .doc an extension from Microsoft Office Word?
it is, but in the case of the dec0d3d.doc it's probably short for documentary.
no its probably not. the titles of all the episodes end with a random file type extension like .mkv or .mp3 or .mov
.doc is the extension for old versions of ms word.
Word is .docx afaik
http://whatis.techtarget.com/fileformat/DOC-Microsoft-Word-document :p
But *.doc is a reading type. Weird file extension to use.
I've seen it both ways.
"No you haven't, Shawn."
okay this is actually really interesting. and they mentioned bill ;__;
Calling for a Bill Harper spin-off.
Anyone else find it annoying as fuck that they constantly said "Coming up next ___, ___, ___, and ___" and "now that we've told you ____, we're going to tell you ___ and ___." I feel like these phrases made up half the fucking show. Stop telling me what you're going to tell me and just spit it out FFS.
...

Yeah I found the documentary had a lot of fluff. Pretty mediocre overall.
It's the american format.
Commercials.
Absolutely
any links? didn't know about this.

I feel like the only thing I got out of the documentary is that "This is Mr. Robot... Decoded!"
Geez you guys have soooo many ads in the US, so happy I don't have to deal with all that.
I did it from eztv, I didn't even know.
We just use ad blockers lol
Thanks for linking this!
Elliot: "amen amen amen" also they showed two of the fivenine clips at the beginning and end
What was up with the one with Joanna? Looked like half her face was covered in blood.
Looks like a nosebleed
They are really hyping up this preview of season 2, even the short few seconds of new footage they are showing us is really awesome.
Amen!
Snowden? That was different footage right?
yeah that was footage from citizen four
DAMN i was over here thinking that they found him for an interview
John Oliver found Snowden. I mean he does AMA's all the time. I got alerts setup for when he does do AMA's and he answers a lot of posts with good to know shit.
He did a god damn TED talk, not exactly hard to book.
Forgive my ignorance, but how do you set up alerts for that?
Yeah, from citizenfour
AMEN
I liked the little nod War Games.
"Oh yea. Put the little piece of tape on the laptop cam."
The moment Sam said that, I went and covered my laptop camera
Well this is....interesting?
Could anyone make out who the woman was when they were watching Obama on Tv and Elliot enters the room
Is that his mom?
that's actually what I thought too, but I wasn't sure. She was wearing like the purple/blue-ish thing that we see her always wearing too
That would make sense since Elliot is staying in his mother's house at the start of S2.
That looks very much like his mom, and I think it's been confirmed that he flees to her house for the start of the season. The only question now is whether or not she's really there.
Where has it been confirmed?
Is that the same woman that was in a towel?
I have confirmed that is his mother.
If the narrator didnt say "mr. Robot" at the start and sometimes the end of each sentence i think that would help.
Wow I didn't even know this was today. I was watching RAW and then this just went on
Anywhere to watch it online? I'm from Argentina, no american broadcaster likes us here.
It's on Youtube now. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1BbTUASfrAI
awesome, thanks
6 years later, you probably don't know another way to watch that, right? I just finished 2×07 and found out that this existed
You could use vpn and watch it online.
you can watch in on USANetwork.com, if you have an account through them. May not help much, considering you're in Argentina.
The narrator is mediocre, but it's good so far.
I've been reading over a lot of people's theories about who/what/where/when, and I have two observations that I'm hoping to hear thoughts on.
The theological innuendo between Price and Whiterose in the after credit of episode 10. The harp and absolute calm of the place while the rest of the "world" is in chaos. Price and Whiterose are the "invisible people" running the "world".... Price ($, root of all evil) and Whitrose (pure) and how it's all in the "timing"; her faraday room which is completely untouchable.....
And on a related note, Angela is repeatedly presented with a "choice". The wallet that was dropped (and she chose to had it to the theif and not the lady - which struck me as odd but in after thought "the pathway to hell is paved with good intentions"); the disk Ollie had - which she stole and uploaded to AllSafe; when she goes for a run at her father's house, she literally stops at a fork in the road; she chose to go to work for EVIL Corp... And that last conversation she has with Price (who for some strange reason is smitten with Angela), the look on her face as she realizes that Price is actually a horrible man but she can't leave... I do believe Angela is being set up to play the true antagonist, and not Elliot.
Also, did anyone else notice that Elliot tells Joanna his name is Ollie when she asks who he is in episode 10? Why would he say that? Why? That was a pretty weirdo thing to say, even for Elliot...
I had no idea where to put this so I replied here. K
Elliot's excuse is that he "works with" Tyrell, and -- considering the partnership between E-Corp and AllSafe -- technically he wasn't lying. Ollie is another employee at AllSafe, and Elliot probably gave that name because he thought Joanna might know, or have the means to find out, the exact employee roster at AllSafe and catch him if he invented a completely fake name/person.
Sorry, I'm a bit confused. Is this season 2 ep1, or is at episode in between? Also how long will the episode be?
Sounds like more of a discussion of the show and behind the scenes stuff.
Neither just a discussion, recap, preview
Season 2 Episode 00 recaps the first season, teases you and gets you hype for Season 2 Episode 1
it was such a surprise to turn on the tv and see this!!
Reddit people unite!!!
How can I watch this in the UK?!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1BbTUASfrAI
bot ^info
It's region-locked in Singapore, at least.
(I did watch it, though.)
How can I watch it on Mars?
"We were like Reddit people discussing with each other what we thought would happen" - Portia :D
Holy shit can't believe they got Obama. This shows bigger than I thought.
They didn't get Obama, it's just really good editing.
That's what I was thinking but wasn't sure
Looks like more of a recap of season 1. Hopefully we'll get more than just a two minute teaser for the season.
So, it's worth seeing?
If you're really into the show and want to get more hyped for season two, yes.
Did it show a lot of behind the scene stuff?
Nah, not that much. They were just interviewing some tech consultants on the show.
Ah thanks. That might be interesting.
I noticed that they are blaming Tyrell for the hack. They show his mug on a wanted poster and Obama mentions him and fsociety are responsible.
Yeah. I want to know what keeps him (if anything) from ratting on Elliot, should he get caught. And how this blew up in his face. Not where I expected the show to go, so soon!
Season 2.0 is going to be the Empire Stikes Back of Mr. Robot.
Any thoughts or predictions for the upcoming season after watching this?
hello friends
From what I can tell, thats definitely Elliotts mom when he walks in to Obama's press conference on the TV in that one scene.
So therefore, I think Elliot goes to live with his mom for a little. She realizes that he is truly insane, and that she sends people from a psych ward to come get him
What was it? Was it part of season or sometnig? Was it full episode?
This was a good recap, got me so hyped !
11:05 EST? PST?
Well shit, I had no idea, I came here since there were so many ads on Raw. For those that don't watch wrestling, the show almost always goes over time so don't expect an on time start
this came out of NOWHERE.
just like this dildo
Overall thoughts and takeaways from this? Anything new that you learned, whether about the show or its applications to the real world? It was a lot to take in for me and I need to hear other people's idea on this.
I thought that too. I'm guessing she'll turn even more insane this season.
just watched....so pumped for season 2
Am paranoid, d3c0d3d
There were no S02 peeks, so a bit of a waste of time. And if those crackers said anything remotely interesting(pun intended), odds are they'd be put in prison. So not very interesting.

"unpredictable plotlines" I disagree.
Don't get me wrong, I fucking love this show. Very well written, directed and shot. But def not inpredictable thus far imo. I called all the major plotlines. Many after only watching the first or first few episodes. It still fucking rocks. Don't get me wrong here, predictable doesn't mean = shit.
The only plot twist I did not expect was Darlene being Elliot's sister.
Yeah, if you can say you called that then you're just BSing yourself and everyone
