Just started watch The Man in the High Castle, and I have to say, it's the best television I've seen in years.
Why is Phillip K. Dick the best K. Dick?
I have a horrible suspicion the good guys are going to lose in the end, though.
Which is a real shame, since a Nazi run America would be such a paradise compared to the communist infested one we have instead.
Well regarding what happens to the nazi regime in the bookit just keeps going. The main characters aren't there to end it
>>63082635
Ah, there's a book?
Oh..it's 239 pages..
This series doesn't end well, does it?
Looks like a bad adaptation of one of Dick's worst books
Get fucked OP
pic related; me and my girls
>commie fear
i swear is this 84 again?
you fucks were in yer parents ballsack, commies lost
and stop going to pol you degenerate
>>63082690
the 'get angry over an obvious misunderstanding' bait, a classic
>>63082663
Well, yes, novelists tend to write novels. On the other hand, the jews in hollywood love stealing from his legacy so much that I guess I can forgive you your ignorance just this once.
>>63082663not everyone dies if that's what you mean. But the book focuses very little on the grand scheme of things after the first few chapters. It's just about the main characters after that.

>commies lost
no, anon. commies won.
>>63082770and I mean there's no great wars or genocides or anything like that
>>63082666
Like you've read anything by PKD: RIIIIIGHT.
-So that's what, $100 apiece for the weekend?
>>63082794
just google reverse image search it. his image is a shot from some shitty movie no one has seen.
or, you know, just look at the filename, since he obviously saved it off 4chan.
>>63082794
>he doesn't maintain a dick pile
>>63082903
Dammit, stop doing that!
>>63082749
all those adaptations and only one good movie
hint:it's A Scanner Darkly
>>63082772
Commies hated faggots familia, Modern leftism is communism for faggots
What do you feel when someone says
>obergruppenfuhrer
In this show?
>>63083725
It's a mix between your dick getting soft in a girl mouth after nuttin from bj and warm hot chocolate in front of a fireplace on cold snowy christmas
>>63083611
yes, it is perverse, is it not? the communists were so successful at demoralization that it is now mainstream. it is the same reason why hipsters will pay thirty dollars to wear a shirt with the face of che gueuvara.
>>63083802Obergruppenfuhrer.
>>63083906
It's only because the 20 something year old students who push it are dropkicks who never had to work hard in their life and think communism is Les Miserables or some fucking shit, most of them used to grow out of it before graduation but now they just stay that way
if american really wasnt commie-infested, why is mccarthyism considered a bad thing
>>63083949
sometimes, i like to think what actual reds would do to them. could you imagine an occupy wallstreet or black crimes matter mob telling the cheka they're not allowed to say faggot, have to wait for womyn to speak first, and have to wave their hands instead of clap because loud noises are triggering?
but then i realize that they're influential in contemporary society, and may get their way. there is a very real possibility of the SJW cheka enforcing those rules in the future. what will happen when the effeminate white betas are put up against the wall and shot by the more militant butch dykes and transvestites for not checking their privilege *enough*?
because it will be their own that have their backs against the wall first. sure, they'll come for me eventually, but only after they have purged their own ranks.

>>63083982
because arthur miller.
oh wait, he was actually a communist. nvm.
>>63083982
Because McCarthyism is seen as undemocratic and against muh freedoms more than defending America
>>63084032
>house committee on unamerican activities literally made up of elected congressmen
>undemocratic
>>63084041
It's not what I think senpai, it's just how it's perceived. It's the same reason the national muslim tracking registry Trump proposes is seen as fucked up
>>63084028
He's a jew too.
>>63084198
funny, i just checked his wikipedia page. it doesn't mention that he's a jew. although it is tagged in the categories
American people of Austrian-Jewish descent
American people of Polish-Jewish descent
which i searched, and had no entries for miller.
it's also tagged in the categories
Jewish agnostics
Jewish American dramatists and playwrights
Jerusalem Prize recipients
which i did not even bother to search.
>>63084276
Pretty sure Miller identified as atheist or agnostic.
He was probably ethnically Jewish though.not that it matters in the slightest and the paranoia here about commies and jews is like it's 1947 in this thread
>>63084363
family values shape individual values, anon. and they are influenced by their morality structures, especially religion. people from jewish families cannot help but be influenced by judaic mores.
here's the thing, though. those wiki pages usually make it pretty clear what the ethnic and religious backgrounds are of people as famous as arthur fucking miller, the most prolific american playwright of the 20th century.
so why is his page whitewashed?
>>63084415
good, but I didn't really get into it until eps 8-10 when heydrich showed up. i have a feeling he didn't have the impact on those that aren't really into ww2 history, but i will tell you he was one bad dude and it was mostly assumed he'd take over after hitler

>>63084544
this is the part of that scene i liked. i was about to complain about your first post's webm.
>>63084560
what part if i may ask?
>>63084583
I really like how he takes out the luger and tosses it.
>>63084621
i meant what part did you dislike about the previous one? no denying the broship in that scene and how he calmly walked over, picked it up, and took out the last tommy gunner

Fuck me, I can only imagine what it's like being so fucking paranoid all the time.

I'm glad I was proven wrong, really strengthens his character.

Second time this week in two different medias that's happened.
>>63084817
well, that's just the thing. the references aren't there. all that's actually in the article are a few categories in which his page has been included. it's almost as though there used to be information about his heritage, but it has since been removed.
but don't take my word for it. you can check it yourself.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arthur_Miller
just go there, ctrl+f "jew"
see what you turn up.
>>63084827
smith is no retard. his unconventional travel route is ambushed by a number of well armed resistance, so after the primary threats are down instead of getting that oy vey nazi luger execution he goes for wounding shots so he can interrogate the fucker.
I am very confused by this. Why does no one have super powers like in normal TV shows. Is it a cop show, I can just about understand those.
>>63084908
do you want to discuss this show or not?
>>63084944
Watched 2 episodes, but I am not hooked. That it's so different from everything else is its only redeeming quality so far.

Best television? This show is mediocre garbage.

Based Obergruppenführer.
How closely does this follow the novel?

>That it's so different from everything else is its only redeeming quality so far.

>he doesn't want to watch the adventures of Reich Ranger on saturday mornings
>>63085618
Wait, is there really something called reich Ranger in this?
>>63085628
wegener's son in berlin reads a comic book that's called that IIRC
>>63085640
His son is in Berlin, speaks German, yet is reading an English comic book?
>They make it so you are actually hoping that Hitler doesn't get assassinated so that Heydrich doesn't win
>Joe slips through the resistances grasp at the end
>Obergruppenfuhrer is a constant badass with the perfect family (other than his son)
Someone at Amazon is from /pol/
>>63085720
Nah. Speaking of, I remember /tv/ blasted the German grammar used in this, did it improve?
>>63085720
>other than his son
is his son some kind of commie?
>>63085734
when spoken, the german is generally fine (although wegener has a noticeable accent). however, they fuck up on certain words and titles every now and then
>>63085720
I think you're missing a key overarching theme. This exact sort of occupation is what actually happened in Japan. The roles are merely reversed.
>>63085795
Americans were actually fairly benevolent towards the Japanese, which is surprising given their actions during the war.
>>63085795
Except for the fact that in the 1960s the Japanese had their own government.
And we didn't have secret police running around Tokyo
But sure, it's the exact same thing.
>>63085820
According to American history books.
>>63085844
The fact that the japanese exist is a testament to American kindness.
>>63085838
>in the 1960s the Japanese had their own government
who wrote their constitution, again?
>we didn't have secret police running around Tokyo
no, we had US Marines.
>>63085852
i agree with you. and the fact that they all speak english to this very day is a testament to what?
Good points:
The plot with Hitler
Japanese plot
Shit points:
The whole plot with the main character (and her being a stupid woman)
Final scene
>>63082663
...who did you think Dick was? How do you even know his name if you didn't know there was a book? 300 pages is a standard novel, it's very easy to read as well. Do you only read greentext?
Literally just finished watching it.Jesus Christ, how does Hitler have Aizen tier planning, what the fuck kind of genius is he in this universe?
>>63085863
They freely elected member to the diet in the 60s, and the only conceivable complaint about their constitution was, or still is, article 9.
Outside of that they elected their entire government.
Which is definitely not the reality in this show. You're just wrong. It isn't the same at all.
>>63085929Le man in the white castle
>>63085929
he's a smart guy
I loved the ultra nationalistic designs everywhere. Like how the offices for the Japanese had sliding doors and watercolor paintings on the walls.

>>63085934
>They freely elected member to the diet in the 60s
in the election scheme set up and enforced by americans, yes.
>the only conceivable complaint
if your conception is built by the american interpretation of history, then you're right. after all, who is history written by, again? of course, if you asked an okinawan, he might have a different perspective.
>Which is definitely not the reality in this show.
now i admit i'm only 5 episodes in, but i see no reason to believe it isn't.
>You're just wrong
no, u.
>It isn't the same at all.
that which can be asserted without evidence...
>>63086023
you keep comparing the americans to the imperial japanese. don't do that.
>>63086064
Anon. That is one of the main themes of this television show.
>>63086064
You're right, that's an insult to the Japanese.
>>63085873
>and the fact that they all speak english
lol
>>63082690
>comies lost
and how is that a good thing ?
>>63085780
He has a disease that will eventually paralyse him.

>>63086409
so how do you want your aryan natsoc nucular family, obergrupenführer?
what channels broadcast this show?
I have playstation. I want to activate the free month of Viaplay, Netflix or HBO. Which one has it?
>>63086571
try the internet, they have just about anything
>>63082590
>Why is Phillip K. Dick the best K. Dick?
I would go so far as to say he is the best Dick bar none.It's the LSD.
>>63086594
no
I want to watch it on my television
>>63085720
That whole root for one bad guy because he won't start a nuclear war unlike the other bad guy is from the book.
>>63086571
>>63086594
>>63086642
Quit dicking around.
The channel. Now.
>>63086642
>what is an HDMI cord
>>63086673
it's on amazon
>>63086642
Dang man, that sucks. If only TVs had somehow been improved over the years, maybe with a function that'd make it really easy to hook 'em up to any computer and use it as a screen.
If only man, if only.
Is this on Netflix?
I really want to see it.
>>63086818
then fucking stream or dl it somewhere jesus christ and for the tenth time, it's on amazon if you absolutely must throw your money out the window
>>63086877
Thanks £am.
>>63086877
I'm not living in a country where Amazon is easy to use as to order anything. I guess I have to torrent it, like everything else.
The twist is going to be that those guys were actually sent by the Nazi party to get rid of him because of his refusal to send his sick son to an extermination camp, isn't it? Hopefully he'll join la resistance and kick some more ass.
>>63088083
Most likely not. There were reprieves given to jews and homosexuals as long as they were useful to the party, you know.
Lesser known kek: Hitler's uncle, a paranoid schizophrenic, was sent to a camp and begged Hitler to save him. Hitler did not.
>>63085873
>They all speak english
>They
>All
>Speak
>English
>>63085838
You may notice that we don't meet a single German in the Nazi States of America until Wegener and later Heydrich drops in for a visit. All the SS officers are American, all the people we meet are American. Hell, the Obergruppenfuhrer (a rank only two steps below Himmler) in charge of the whole American SS is American born and raised. Everyone speaks English and English is the primary language used. Nazi Germany is taking a very hands-off approach to its governance of America. Pretty much like the American occupation of Japan.
In comparison the Japanese occupation of the Pacific States is very much more in a state of Japanization like what they did in Korea and Taiwan, with attempting to replace the local culture with Japanese culture and making everyone learn Japanese, and they're also migrating many Japanese there, the Kempeitai in America is all Japanese unlike the SS in America which is all American.
>>63085712
In America today people read Japanese manga.
>>63085963
UUUU
>>63086023
Why is there an explosion around those two guys when they collide?
>>63085921
Bullshit. Dick books are not easy to read. He always writes his books in a way that he doesn't introduce anything. This book literally startts for 20 pages with a japanese ritual with no introduction.
So the first episode was like 80 percent rebellious scum. Does it get better or am I always going to be watching traitors?
>>63089718
it's a camera flash.
can't wait for season 2, lafa

That show gets boring fast, I can't even remember what happened in the last episode I watched.
Beginning of episode they wanted to get a film, end of episode they got the film, in the middle nothing happened.
>>63085601
The only negative. Literally.
>>63085183
>This show is mediocre garbage.
110% this. OP only likes it because of Nazis shit.
>mfw people genuinely don't think the world in this is beautiful
I am honestly baffled.
