This is a must-see scifi movie, if you've never seen it. The book that inspired the movie "Blade Runner" is called "Do Androids Dream Of Electric Sheep?" <br />If that sounds familiar, the title for episode 304 of Fringe "Do Shapeshifters Dream Of Electric Sheep" is a play on the book's title.<br /><br /><br />In "The Friefly" Roscoe Joyce says "My knowledge of science begins and ends with inventing a recipe for a ...strawberry milkshake."fringeobsessedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02818528329131089151noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-788645746622659643.post-42587080644391055092011-08-14T22:56:07.340-04:002011-08-14T22:56:07.340-04:00@cortexifan Actually, I think that we're often...@cortexifan Actually, I think that we're often on the same wavelength on many things. ;)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12317988702848090808noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-788645746622659643.post-10802139171286691512011-08-14T22:32:10.162-04:002011-08-14T22:32:10.162-04:00@ Aimee.

-Walter: “And of course whatever you do, y...part 2<br /><br />-Walter: “And of course whatever you do, you must face the consequences.” Walter says something similar to Alistair Peck in 2.17 White Tulip.<br />-The Observer sacrificed himself for Christine. So they can die.<br />-Why was Peter able to fire that gun?<br />-How does Walter know that Christine is safe now?<br />-“Look how happy she is. It’s a shame things are about to get so hard for her.” I think it’s been hard for Olivia already, going back to her childhood, being experimented on as a child, the step father, her mom dying when she was 14, John dying, Charlie dying and being betrayed by them, and kidnapped. I had no idea how much harder it could get. Going to another universe, being trapped there, experimented on some more, coming back realizing Peter’s been with her doppelganger, realizing who she really is and what she can do, losing Peter again and on and on. Wow. <br /><br />If Peter never existed in this episode…<br />-Olivia would have been killed by Donald, either earlier in the apartment or at the motel and she would have never found Christine. Actually Olivia wouldn’t have made it in a lot of episodes. As strong as she is and as much as she can defend herself, Peter saved her quite often. <br />-would Olivia have shared the memory of her mom with someone else?cortexifannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-788645746622659643.post-79554426600665121202011-08-14T21:53:15.714-04:002011-08-14T21:53:15.714-04:00part 1
-Do the Observers observe everyone or just...part 1<br /><br />-Do the Observers observe everyone or just certain people? <br />-Does Walter know all the Observers?<br />-Olivia: “I’m scared of the roller coasters.” At the end of the episode she is riding one with Ella. Did Ella convince her to give it a try or did Olivia decide to give it a try? We know from 3.03 The Plateau that Fauxlivia rode one with Alt-Charlie. He was testing her memory. In 3.05 Amber 31422 just before Olivia goes in the tank for the first time she says: “Just like riding the roller coaster at Coney Island, right? “ Also in 3.19 LSD as cartoon Walter, Peter and Bell are on the roof, looking down, there is a roller coaster in the landscape of Olivia’s mind. <br />-It’s amazing how different Olivia is when she’s with Ella. Ella brings out the best in Olivia, smiling and laughing. Ella is very understanding about Olivia’s job. And I still think there is more to Ella than what we see. <br />-Pancakes are a Bishop’s favorite as well.<br />-Why is Walter recreating strawberry milkshakes? In 3.10 The Firefly he says he spend six years perfecting the recipe.<br />-I miss August. To me he was the most human one. It was good to see him again in 2.15 Peter, although in a sense that was before he died. Is he the only one that developed feelings for those he watches? Is it not allowed?<br />-Olivia to Broyles: “…everything we know about these guys, the little there is suggests that they just watch. They don’t get involved. But now…” I think the Observers are more involved than they want to admit. And for what purpose?<br />-In the Observer’s book is a symbol of a circle with dots around it. You can see it best when Peter is showing Walter the stain (fringefiles 250 in screenshots for 2.08 August). The symbol appears also on a graffiti in 3.10 The Firefly when Peter just steps through the door to come on to the roof (fringefiles 742 in the screenshots for that episode).<br />-Peter to Walter: “Did he ever tell you why he saved us?” Walter’s expression suggests otherwise but we have not been told. <br />-How did Walter find out that this is a code?<br />-How did Massive Dynamic get a copy of the book?<br />-And why does Brandon spill water on Olivia’s boots, twice?<br />-26 sightings in 3 months. That goes back to 1.19 The Road Not Taken when Nina shows up at Broyles’s house quite concerned. What’s going to happen because he shows up so often?<br />-How did the Observers get their names?<br />-August created an irregularity that needs to be corrected. Hm.<br />-Allston: Peter’s mom moved to an apartment in Allston, after Walter was locked up (1.03 Ghost Network), David Robert Jones had leased a warehouse in Allston (1.14 Ability) and Peter and Olivia took a car trip to a warehouse in Allston in 3.16 Os. <br />-The shot of Olivia in the car where she does the thing with her mouth was used again in 3.20 6:02 AM EST as she’s driving to see Nina. <br />-Still want to know what happened to Olivia’s mom. <br />-I think it’s funny that September argues with August about getting involved since he is the one who pulled Peter and Walter out of the lake. <br />-December says: “your perception must be in error.” I thought the Observers know all the different choices that can be made; they just don’t know which one. Is August’s perception then not a valid one? Not sure if I’m making sense. <br />-Walter: “Please don’t take my son. Your friend and I had a deal.” What was that deal, Walter?<br />-The outlet in the apartment has 4 holes.cortexifannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-788645746622659643.post-36697093001031966982011-08-14T16:35:50.522-04:002011-08-14T16:35:50.522-04:00I love the re-caps.

He will be different . . . " this what John Noble said in a recent interview. Maybe he will work with the ZFT people or work for Massive Dynamic. I have a feeling he will initially be on the opposing side of Olivia, Walter and the Fringe team.<br />KAH2Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
