My wife has banned me from mentioning the following topics when we meet new people:
I’m not familiar with the first two but Cold War submarines! Hell yes!
Go watch DARK. Do not pass go. Turn off your phone. Watch it in the original German with subtitles. Focus and take lots of notes re who is related to who. Consider buying a whiteboard for Seasons 2 and 3. Remember that every single scene, every line of dialogue, is vital to the plot.
You had me at “go buy a white board”!
My priest mentioned that I’m 3D printing in her sermon during my wedding…
If you want to talk a monologue about dark, I'm here to listen
Thank you! I've been trying to spot potential plot errors (obvs. only potential!) and may have spotted three, two of them in S1E1 and one in S3E3.
Firstly, who is transiting the tunnel when the kids are outside the cave? It can't be the Jonas who takes Mikkel through to 1986 because it would take him too long to get from the door to the tunnel mouth. The only other candidates are Helge and Noah, but what would they be doing there at that time?
Secondly, although the kids' flashlights glitch, the lights in the school do not. This seems the only time where a traveller transiting the tunnel doesn't cause a widespread power outage.
Turning to S3E3, when Martha takes Stranger Jonas to the woods to show him her time machine and give him her alleged final phial of caesium. Why, oh why, doesn't Jonas just use her machine to transport everyone back to 2019? Why bother using the caesium to create a steampunk time machine when Jonas has a fully functional one in front of him?
I'm also fascinated by what happened when Alternate Egon travelled to rescue Hamnah as she's having her miscarriage during the apocalypse in Eva's world. We know Hannah has to givr birth to Egon's child (Silja) but surely she's not going to get into a relationship with a retired Egon! Perhaps he takes her to meet his younger self in the '50s - after getting her medical care - but it seems rather unlikely that Hannah would go along with Eva's plan.
All of the above are mere minor questions in what was an amazing show. I've been reliving it vicariously through YouTube reactions and have just finished watching 'The Chill Finn' aka Tiia complete the show. She thought it was the best thing she's ever seen, and her analysis and commentary were excellent. Now I need to find another YouTuber I've not watched yet, and they are fairly few and far between.
Dark was fabulous. Best twisted time travel show I've ever seen
I would like to know more about cold war submarines
Sadly, I have chores. Old Tom Clancy novels are pretty accurate, but don't really talk about the UK boats, such as the Trafalgar class (SSN) and the Oberon diesel-electric boats. The worst thing Thatcher ever did was cancel the Submarine Commamd School (known as Perisher) as Captains from all over NATO used to attend. It was the one thing we were excellent at.
sounds like you need to start a community :)
Your wife is a saint. Worship her. Sing to her.
I know. I do (mainly the DARK soundtrack but it still counts.)
About Soviet submarines
You ever seen the old Russian Foxtrot in San Diego?
Sadly, I'm in the UK. The best we've got near me is a WWII A-class boat at Gosport.
That's still pretty cool. When I was in SONAR school I used to love sitting in the tech pub library reading all the old SONAR tech pubs going back to WWII.
Oh, I enjoyed visiting HMS Alliance but would love a look around an SSN or even a Type VII U-boat.
I'm a scuba instructor, and one of our favorite books in the hobby is "Shadow Divers" by Robert Kurson.
It's the story of wreck divers in the 90s discovering a U-Boat off the coast of New Jersey that shouldn't have been there according to any records. They dove it over the course of several years and multiple people died trying to solve the mystery of the sub.
Worth a read.
Thanks!
My favourite is the Echo II because of the cool pop up angled launchers.
