Its more a commentary on America’s frighteningly real chance of descending into a Russian sponsored fascist dictatorship. But sure if that scratches your persecution fetish I’m not gonna kink shame you
I enjoyed the show also, but it’s sort of like a fan fiction set in the first couple chapters of the book? The book quickly moves from generation to generation, crisis to crisis and leaves empire and these characters far behind
I remember reading that the creators were not interested in playing the games at all, but I kind of get the feeling that they had pure distain for the source material and were actively trying to ruin it as much as possible. How many god damn times did Master chief get hit in the head after taking off his helmet in tactical situations?
I wonder if foundation would qualify? If you were a fan of the books and expecting something remotely similar you’d be wildly disappointed. But the visuals in the show are really good and one of the storylines (Not even remotely found in the book) is really entertaining with one of the actors (Lee Pace) putting on an absolute clinic.
