There was a scene where Syd visits David's room to sleep together. The shot from under the bed shows the door opening and then closing with no feet walking through the doorway. She just appears all of a sudden. So far, absolutely everything is suspect.
@keithmontreuil67267 жыл бұрын
no, i think it was intentional. thats a tricky shot to make. i'm not even sure they could make that mistake. it might have been a subtle nod that things just aren't as they seem in terms of Davids story telling.. like whether or not Syd was ever actually in the psych ward.

Keith Montreuil but in episode 2 she talks about having met David there and being trapped in his body there so she had to have actually been there maybe her going to David's room was just in David's head considering he was already dreaming about her and she was actually just in her room?

There is also an Aesop Fable involving Veritas (Truth) and Falsehood, which were two sculptures (one sculpted by the potter Prometheus, and the other by the apprentice "Trickery") when Falsehood was sculpted, the likeness was uncanny, but the sculptor ran out of clay, and so Falsehood has no feet. This could be digging a bit too deep, but based on what the show has thrown at us so far, it is not unreasonable.

His disorder is not like schizophrenia, the correct term is actually Dissociative Identity Disorder (formally known as Multiple Personality Disorder). Schizophrenia has to do with seeing and hearing things that are not there whereas DID has to do with having several identities or personalities. At any rate good break down :)
@kbeg927 жыл бұрын
Except that he does see and hear things that aren't there. So it's both :p
@NPX77 жыл бұрын
No, my point is that schizophrenia is the term for someone who sees and hears things that are not there. The fact that he sees and hears things is due to one of his mutant abilities being psychic, like his father Charles Xavier. His various abilities manifest with each personality/identities thus he has DID (Dissociative Identity Disorder) ;)

NPX7 Even if he even actually had any of those disorders, it is possible to have both of them, and David clearly shows symptoms of schizophrenia throughout the episode. he doesn't actually show any other identities throughout the show
@NPX77 жыл бұрын
Indeed, that, however, is not my original point. The statement "he accesses his other powers through schizophrenia" is incorrect. It is true it is not clear that we have seen any other personalities yet, that we know of, but to be honestly we don't actually even know for sure what is real and what is in his mind ;) In any event, I think my point is rather moot at this point. The show may, in fact, be taking a vastly different direction than the comics. We just have to watch and find out :)

Great breakdown. a few points: Another reason we are left wondering if Syd was ever in the Hospital is because the under-the-bed shot of Syd entering David's room in the mental hospital showed the door opening but not feet entering the room, yet as the camera pans to a view above the bed we see she's in the room already. Also - its possible the pyrokinesis that freed him came from David himself, in the comics his personalities control different aspects of his powers, and is it just me or did that extension cord looked like it was burning before morphing into the candle in the cupcake?

It's all in his head. In the comics, when one of his personalities show up, they literally take over his body. That might be the reason why the body swapped back to David after his memories came back without having to touch her again. Maybe that's the big reveal at the end of the show. Charles Xavier and another doctor tried to cure Legion of his multiple personalities. Read age of M. Just guessing though..

This is nitpicking but, David doesn't just absorb people into his personality and gain their power, he has made up his own identity and personalities himself, and he gives power to the identity he absorb. Like the terrorist he absorb, who then gain physic power and became part of David, not before. Also The fire might actually be Lenny's doing considering the instruction she told David before and we know that David can absorb other consciousness and give them power. Plus in the comics legion has a personality that is a girl(for it the name), whose power is pyrokinesis, and anything fire, so I'm guessing that's Lenny

What I want to know is WHEN is Legion taking place? At first I figured it was taking place right now but on further thinking about it it can't be. David seems to be born in the late '60s so that would make him more than 50 years old. Clearly he isn't. Also he stops and uses a Payphone at one point so it must be taking place in the '90s (alittle like the thing that Deadpool mentions in his latest trailer...payphones kind of vanished in the '90s. As for Patrick Stewart how would he play Charles Xavier that far back? Lots more CGI?
