Dark Matter Book vs Show ep 4-6

Blake crouch says he wanted to extend & improve on the book, still the best adaptation of a book I’ve seen! It’s a fun show! 😎😎😎👍👍

Finally I found a book vs the show video on Dark Matter. It's been 8 years since read the book so it's good to have a refresher course on what's new and what isn't.

I didn't know Blake Crouch was making the changes. I'm enjoying the differences so far, it keeps the story surprising for book readers.

Science fiction really isn’t my thing but I’m happy to see Joel Egerton in this so I might give it a go

Great content! Thank you

1:23 Dude found out gen z/alpha in prime universe is beyond saving.

Why is no one mentioning that in Episode 6 we actually see a third iteration of Jason and Amanda in the hotel room scene during the last 15 minutes of the show? The show has established that every time we hear a SNAP, followed by a cut to a new scene, we are transitioning to either Jason 1 or Jason 2. However, in Episode 6, we see Jason 1 with Amanda (from Jason 2’s universe) resting just outside the box, where Amanda mentions “Not your world?” followed by “We are almost out of ampules.” Then, we hear a SNAP! The scene cuts to an exterior shot of a nighttime street, followed by an interior hotel room shot where we see Jason and Amanda walk in through the door. However, this is not the same Jason 1 and Amanda that we just watched in the previous scene sitting in front of the box. Remember, the SNAP has established that every time it’s heard we are cutting to another Jason. Previously it was either Jason 1 or Jason 2, but it couldn't be either of them in this context. The last hotel room scene in Episode 6 scene implies that we are witnessing a Jason and Amanda 3! The concept of infinite possibilities, as mentioned in the show, is now visually represented with another set of Jason and Amanda, performing nearly identical actions as Jason 1 and Amanda did earlier in the same episode.

Also, I love the differences between the book and the show; especially the Daniela stuff. One of the things that was difficult to wrap my arms around when reading the book, no matter how compelling and exciting I did find it, was the suspension of belief needed to allow that smart people could be so obtuse and blind in their interpersonal and scientific observations. That said, I would also suggest that - given his purposeful and dark mindset - it’s possible that this Jason2 is an amalgam of several of the other darker Jason’s from the book, yes? That’s what it feels like. Thanks for the great content.

I loved the book I remember that I have finished it in a couple of days .. and the adaptation is wonderful .. Loved your videos ❤

I am enjoying this show so far. I haven't read the book, but I am very interested in reading it now! Also, I am going to go see Furiosa for the second time tomorrow 😊

I'm starting to wonder if the TV show will be more than one season.

As a Show only fan, .. 9 episodes ... would be perfect ... if they have Jason 1 figuring out time travel and fixes everything starting with Jason 2's apparent timeline. fanfic

I’m becoming a fan, I think I may get the book. I usually don’t buy science fiction book usually it’s about history etc but I’m considering it

I’ve watched all the reviews that have posted, and I’m really stunned that nobody saw Leighton on the dance floor when Amanda and Jason were (attempting) dancing together. Have a look…

If anyone could explain to me, like I’m 5, how is the box physically available in Jason’s 1 world. Like, Jason 1 hasn’t built it yet. I’d understand if it was like a portal that opens and closes but the box is a physical object that just appeared in the middle of a warehouse.

I read the book and forgot a lot. I was wondering with the addition of the other son why he couldn’t write the remembrance tree and go back there. Other than that I like the book. So glad I found a comparison video so I don’t have to go back and re-read.

I’m really tripping on the show. The remembrance tree. “You don’t talk like one”. He’s in the world and thinks it makes him who he is but no. Ohhh same author screenplay. Nice. So one can’t enter another world except for observing. But it took a lot of practice by Jason2. But now there are multiple drug sources. But is box workable just by heavyness? Must see more.

I really like this series. I’ve been thinking of reading the book, but I don’t want the book to make it so that it ruins some of the stuff in the series so that I would know what’s gonna happen. It sounds like from what you’re saying that the book is different from the series but still the same is that true?
