2) JJ Abrams

Enough to get me to at least watch the pilot. Looks interesting enough. Still comes off like your prototypical basic cable drama series, but I'll give it a shot.

I'll watch the pilot. Looks like it could be interesting, but I'm not getting my hopes up.

Maybe this will last longer than the last spruiked up tv show you guys talked about which got canned after a few horses died.
If this show tries to be preachy about the terrible, terrible humans and their power getting just deserts when deprived of it, I'll be "turned off."
I saw a trailer for this and got my hopes up for a decent movie, and then I saw it was a TV series. Da fuck....
Looked good until that cheesy sword fight. Just can't get invested in another writing free for all.
lol what the fuck...
premise seems rather shaky at best.
Also apparently guns magically stop working when the power goes out... lol.

That pissed me off. I thought it was going to be really cool then I saw the retarded fight scenes with swords and,...was that a flintlock musket at one point?jsnipy wrote:

Oh look, there is the power button in its name, who wants to press it to shut down the entire series?
The irony of guns, is that they can save lives.
Y2K meets The Postman.

Make X-meds a full member, for the sake of 15 year old anal gangbang porn watchers everywhere!
Well...that sucked really hard.

Apparently turbine engines need electrical power to work and aircraft enter crazy flat spins when they lose electrical power...WTF?
I heard a theory say that the magnetic poles reversed and changed the laws of physics. In any case, J.J. Abrams is one of the producers so any form of realistic plausibility should not be expected.
I'll probably keep watching it because I have nothing else to watch.

Yeah so much of this show is just retarded. Apparently steam power no longer exists, and 15 years after The Black Out there's only a couple dozen modern weapons left and the rest use flintlocks, archery equipment, or swords. The acting and dialogue sucks pretty hard too.
...but I'll still watch it.

I like Charlie though. Eye Candy.
Has JJ Abrams ever made anything good?
Just checked, nothing to write home about

The first season of Lost was awesome. Didn't he do Lost?
Yeah Charlie is eye candy.

A few aircraft would go dumb with no electrical power, but quite a lot work just fine. Even if it did go dumb, it would have to enter a nasty out of trim stall to get anything like that.Ilocano wrote:

Turbines don't need electrical power, nor do steam engines....
A lot of the detail problems with this show arise from the tendency of the writers to make things the way they are so the characters can have cool looking sword fights, rather than any logical basis.
Unfortunately with the massive amount of logical problems, and lack of intriguing characters (other than perhaps the bad guy's enforcer), I don't see much of a future for this show.
"Ooh, sword fights, let's give everyone swords!"
"The Hunger Games had a strong teenage female lead who used archaic weaponry...let's make our lead character a teenage female who uses archaic weaponry!" "The Hunger Games had a male character who was supposed to kill the lead character but fell in love with her...let's do that too!"
"Our character should be trusting...nevermind the fact that 19 out of the last 20 strangers she met tried to kill her, and the other has unknown intentions!"

Depends on the engine. The Huey doesn't need any electrical power to fly at lower altitudes, for example.

As for the Huey, how about getting it up and running first in typical combat scenarios?
