Там всё целиком надо читать, конечно — “Let's start with the bad guys. Battalions of stormtroopers dressed in all black, check. Secret police, check. Determination to brutally kill everyone who doesn't look like them, check. Leader with a tiny villain mustache and a tendency to go into apopleptic rage when he doesn't get his way, check. All this from a country that was ordinary, believable, and dare I say it sometimes even sympathetic in previous seasons. ¶ I wouldn't even mind the lack of originality if they weren't so heavy-handed about it. Apparently we're supposed to believe that in the middle of the war the Germans attacked their allies the Russians, starting an unwinnable conflict on two fronts, just to show how sneaky and untrustworthy they could be? And that they diverted all their resources to use in making ever bigger and scarier death camps, even in the middle of a huge war? Real people just aren't that evil. And that's not even counting the part where as soon as the plot requires it, they instantly forget about all the racism nonsense and become best buddies with the definitely non-Aryan Japanese. ¶ Not that the good guys are much better. Their leader, Churchill, appeared in a grand total of one episode before, where he was a bumbling general who suffered an embarrassing defeat to the Ottomans of all people in the Battle of Gallipoli. Now, all of a sudden, he's not only Prime Minister, he's not only a brilliant military commander, he's not only the greatest orator of the twentieth century who can convince the British to keep going against all odds, he's also a natural wit who is able to pull out hilarious one-liners practically on demand. I know he's supposed to be the hero, but it's not realistic unless you keep the guy at least vaguely human.” - × × ×

“With the superweapons -- what about that bit where after the war, the good guys capture a bunch of bad guy mad scientists, and then use them to fly to the freakin' moon. For absolutely no adequately explained reason. It's not like the good guys then set up moon bases or anything. It's totally a dropped plotline.” - × × ×

“There's also this storyline about a drill well that can't be shut off. This should be one episode, but early reviews love the character of the BP CEO, (British actors play villains so well) so they may have to extend the story line out another 5-10 episodes.” - × × ×

«I'm not even going to get into the whole subplot about breaking a secret code (cleverly named "Enigma", because the writers couldn't spend more than two seconds thinking up a name for an enigmatic code), the giant superintelligent computer called Colossus (despite this being years before the transistor was even invented), the Soviet strongman whose name means "Man of Steel" in Russian (seriously, between calling the strongman "Man of Steel" and the Frenchman "de Gaulle", whoever came up with the names for this thing ought to be shot).» - 9000

Ооо, дааа. После того, как Гибсон рассказывает про невероятное настоящее эта история про вторую мировую читается снова с нужными интонациями. Да-да. (Гибсон здесь: http://friendfeed.com/urbansh...) - × × ×
