    Yeah I agree, I just don't buy the unreliable narrator angle. You don't establish the rules of your universe, have your protagonist waste multiple episodes to painstakingly bumble through to test and verify those rules, just to turn around later on go "aha, we could lie the whole time, we just...

    a lot of words for "yeah I was wrong, my bad" Don't worry I forgive you. Another thing I noticed on 2nd viewing of the first episode, they do kind of spell out exactly what it is. The team at the army medical research lab used the DNA sequence from the signal to develop a lysogenic virus (ie...

    only thing more tiresome is the willful retardation to deny it. Yes or no, no need for further debate: Do you believe spraying poison designed to kill insects directly onto insects is intentionally killing? Yes/no If you release all livestock (to include bird species) which account for 50% of...

    oh man I thought you were just trolling this whole time lol. i did rewatch the opening sequence to see how anyone could have missed this stuff....didn't see how you could have..but I did pick up on something I didn't catch the first time. The signal was an extremely narrow beam aimed directly...

    well they've already shown that they retain all knowledge from the hive despite the bodies dying, so as far as software they are maintaining it all already. Not like the memories or insight from an infant is going to be the thing that cracks the code. You are arguing that they would want to...

    Again, why? in what scenario do they need to propagate the hive at the current human population levels? If its a bioweapon to enslave a planet for an alien species to use as a labor force? Then why release all the animals? Why do no harm to other living things? obviously they can't feed the...

    I was thinking babies. Did they show any infants-toddlers? Indian chick has the young son who is turned..maybe hes supposed to represent children..or maybe he's left alone because he specifically comforts one of the immunes...but what about babies? Nothing but a resource drain on the hive...

    Yeah not sure where "activation" comes from, seems pretty straight forward they were globally dispersing via chem trails in response to mil discovering them despite it not being fully op checked hence the high mortality rate. I think the rat was just catatonic from the joining, like all the...

    Not sure how that's plausible. How would he know he wasn't immune? Once the chem trails flew over it infected everyone and they all converted. He was likely working at his storage unit company, saw everyone going catatonic, then locked himself in a unit thinking it was a zombie apocalypse...

    Like I said I think the wolves was just foreshadowing, scavenging the dead, for the fact that the hive was also scavenging the dead to make their soylent green. Of the possible source of the hivemind im still on team mass effect 3; a species tasked an ai to end galatic wars and it did so by...

    I dont think they can kill. I interpreted that scene to mean they released the aerosolized version of the virus to convert everyone before the military could kill all the infected. It was too soon, the aerosol version wasnt fully tested and ended up killing nearly 1/8th of the population. I...
