No it's not. It adds to the entire absurdity of the situation. And it's a strong contrast between the completely fake image of everything in the SSSR, the constant lying to keep some facade of strength and functionality and the complete bare ass naked miners who are on the the lowest rung of that system. They see through the bullshit, they won't get imitated and they have no shame at all about walking around naked while the career apparatchicks are standing around in their suits.

There was no massive plume of black smoke blowing for days after the explosion. It was a small column of white vapor. The situation on the ground was not the ugly, blown-out, desaturated look you see in the show. It would have felt like any nice late spring day if you weren't paying attention. That contrast would have weighed heavily on the minds of anyone there. You would have to keep your focus and remind yourself that the situation is in fact extremely dangerous even though visually and audibly it would not be so.

Ethan Martin
Triggered is the right word
Jace Diaz
Yes, they took some liberties with the helicopter flying through the smoke plume (which was also dramatized) but it was cool and not ridiculous, it emphasized the dangers of flying through the radioactive plume. Not that big of a deal.Men mined naked in the past, this is a fact. They even said “this is how our fathers mined” in the show. In 50C temperatures it makes sense. These men were hardcore and didnt give a fuck if their dicks were out, unlike you, a squeamish whiny faggot ass bitch who was probably scared to change in the locker room so he changed in the bathroom stall back in high school. Honestly I dont like Emily Watsons character and fast forwarding through her scenes is fine, im rewatching it with my gf and I explained this to her, it also didnt sit right with her that her character is made up while the rest are all real. Shes a Mary Sue. This is a valid criticism of the show but even it doesnt reduce the show to shit. Shes not even that important.The soundtrack is lurching and buzzing and has on overall ominous tone, I think it does a great job, although it is a bit understated. Sorry this isnt some Hans Zimmer Inception tier shit for your ADHD riddled retard brain. In the end your criticisms are weak bullshit. The show is some of the best tv in a long time and has a great tense vibe, you are just a contrarian bitch.
Jeremiah Barnes
>The show is incredibly accurate as stated by people who actually were there This is not true. What was actually said were various people who lived in Ukraine and Russia said the show got aspects of Soviet life at the time like cars, dresses, and props correct.
I haven't seen a comment from anyone who was actually there who said the show was "incredibly accurate". The person who wrote the most authoritative book on the subject and interviewed hundreds of people over 20 years about it did a recent interview and explained the various things the show got wrong.

That video has nothing to do with the points being described in this thread.

In that video it's just an ordinary overcast day.

In this case it conflicts with the subject matter because radiation is invisible and silent until it gets so severe you start seeing evidence of it affecting things or people, and by that time you're probably doomed.

It also happened because the pilot clipped part of the plant structure with a rotor, not because of radiation from the core affecting the helicopter or pilots. The show created the drama of the pilots dying from underestimating the affects of radiation when no such thing happened.
So it's total bullshit. In fact the whole show has this ongoing theme of people around Pripyat having little to zero knowledge of this magical deadly force when that is not true at all.
the show doesn't try and make it seem like the helicopter pilot was incapacitated by radiation, it's shown from a different angle where he clearly flies through a bunch of smoke, causing him to hit the cables due to not seeing
Bentley Allen
Both the TV show and the real life helicopter crash because the rotors hit the crane wire. The show included the radiation affecting the radio of the helicopter within the smoke, preventing it from hearing the orders/warnings. Completely logical, and probable as we don't know what exactly caused the helicopter to run into the crane.
Jacob Rivera
Well you are lying. The whole sequence Legasov is saying over and over "You're too close! You're too close! Don't fly over the core!".
Hudson Stewart

And that makes the show SHIT in the eyes of people who want an honest representation of the worst (maybe) nuclear disaster in history. No one in this thread is disputing WHAT the show did. They're saying IT FUCKING SUCKED because of what it did.
This is the ending of GOT all over again where we have idiots like you who are trying to explain a show to people who understood it perfectly well and came to the conclusion it wasn't any good. No amount of just summarizing the show we all watched is going to change any of that.

And the fact that you think her gender has anything to do with her role demonstrates your insecurity. Her character is written that she could have been male and nothing would change.
Ryan Jackson
Cope excuses for a show that turned one of the most unique disasters in history into feminist fanfiction.
>Except that this relly happened It did not "relly" happen during the Chernobyl disaster. There's no evidence for it. Coal miners of the distant past, as in 100+ years ago worked naked. Has nothing to do with the events of the show.
99% chance it was added as a mandate from on high as a measure of equality since premium cable dramas often feature female nudity.
If it was added as some measure of artistic interpretation of events then it's just retarded. It's a bridge too far to be considered artistic license.
Matthew Martinez
>Cope excuses cope for what? why would I cope with something I willingly consume? you fucking retard it's a fucking hbo show not the fucking history channel and the "feminism" in this show is virtually non existent and wouldn't even be a talking point if it wasn't for that idiot director/writer/whatever's twitter but you'd be a bigger idiot to pay attention to that noise

It is dishonesty to imply women had a bigger role in these events and times than they actually did. I actually is an insult to women scientists of the past who were working for respect for years past this point, well up to this day in modern Russia.

I'm not sure why Ulyana's character triggers people so hard. It's not like she goes around swaggering about how they need a woman to do a man's job or mocking the simple male brain. In fact nothing about her character depends on her gender in any way. The character is already a made-up stand-in for IRL nuclear experts like Velikhov, Prushinksy, Borovoi etc so I don't see how making up a gender is any more offensive than making up a name and position especially when nothing hinges on that gender.
Landon Evans

>And the four hundred miners who worked round the clock to blast a tunnel under the reactor? They needed a tunnel into which to pour liquid nitrogen and freeze the earthen pillow, as the engineers call it. Otherwise the reactor would have gone into the groundwater. So there were miners from Moscow, Kiev, Dniepropetrovsk. I didn’t read about them anywhere. But they were down there naked, with temperatures reaching fifty degrees Celsius, rolling little cars before them while crouching down on all fours. There were hundreds of roentgen. Now they're dying. But if they hadn’t done this? I consider them heroes, not victims, of a war, which supposedly never happened. They call it an accident, a catastrophe. But it was a war. The Chernobyl monuments look like war monuments.
You do know there is vibrant life currently in and around the Chernobyl disaster. Green plant life and beautiful birds abound. If the radiation was THAT bad. no life would exist. This show is Propaganda at its finest

>build one of the only nuclear power plants without a containment shield to save money >female actor criticizes the folly of man, obviously referring to mankind >incels get mad anyway
Jaxson Robinson
Not a single photo or video, nor accounts from anyone else involved in the disaster about naked miners.
Just some idiot exaggerating/bullshitting for attention. Happens with anything like this.
Quote by Adam Higginbotham, author of Midnight in Chernobyl who according to him is
"which was the product of many years of on-the-ground reporting and research, eyewitness interviews, and access to previously unseen archival material"
The radiation was that bad, it's just that the danger didn't quite work the way you are implying, and it was dealt with.
Zachary Moore
Since it's a translated book, and it reads like naked may have meant unprotected, I wonder if that's just an error. That's the same book the firefighter and wife accounts come from though, so at the very least its not some (((HBO))) mandate for cock.
Nolan Sullivan
Yes, the animal hunting sequence just dragged. Beyond other issues that's just poor pacing for a TV show. For a minute the show started to dip into commentary about war and killing, which seemed a strange tangent to go on. I'm sure you can somehow relate it back to the disaster, as you can relate war to almost any stressful situation, but that's lazy. I suppose it does illustrate some of the types of men who were working as liquidators and the historical background around the disaster.

He has also said that stereotypes associated with racial and ethnic groups have a genetic basis: Jews being intelligent, Chinese being intelligent but not creative because of selection for conformity, and Indians being servile.[92]
Watson has repeatedly asserted that differences in average measured IQ between blacks and whites are due to genetics.[93][94][95] In early October 2007, he was interviewed by Charlotte Hunt-Grubbe at Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory (CSHL). He discussed his view that Africans are less intelligent than Westerners.[96][97][98]
>telling men why they are all wrong She told some peak apparatchik that he shouldn't be listening to the bullshit his subordinates were feeding him, and she told Legasov he was mistaken about the tanks being full.

You're just retarded and shouldn't make comments about anything. Why would the Soviet leadership even let some random westerner in there when secrecy was a priority?
You have to be a fucking idiot to misread that. Unprotected for radiation is the only thing that would make logical sense in the context. Like why the fuck would you be naked in that situation?.
They are fucking idiots or they needed to sex this up for HBO.

It is really weird choise to use word golyi to describe them being unprotected. It is really reads as naked in that sentence. Whole paragraph is a little bit exaggerated. There is actual footage and short interview with workers in the mine and all of them were wearing those white robes. Mazin did that either to fuel viewers perception of total shitshow that was going on, or to surround himself with naked men. Seeing how massive faggot he is on twitter its probably both.

You can also use dialogue and establishing shots of course.
Maybe a bit hackneyed, but a dosimeter reading in the corner of the screen would be something that would work in a different kind of dramatization about the event. One that would switch depending on the location of the characters, perhaps in ways that underscore how in an event like this you're exposed before you even realize it. The viewer would see the reading jump while the characters on screen have no idea.

I dislike science lady mostly because she does too much despite being a completely fictional creation, which makes her stand out while not being interesting herself. If they had split her into two characters (one more focused on the emotional aspect while the other on the actual accident and how it happened), even if they were both female, it would make me be a little less annoyed by all the bullshit she pulls in the show. Also the whole >she represents Legasov's conscience Is total fucking bullshit, since she is presented as a totally different character with own will and motivation (despite falling flat) and its specially annoying that Legasov was basically neutral on the matter of telling the world about what really happened until she said to do it, now when he ends up doing it it will feel less like it was a conscious decision by him and more like he just went along with what she said because she is always right (just like she was right AGAIN about the nuclear reactor water tanks that he is an specialist about).
Annoying.

Yeah, they basically ruined their show with this character. After the initial rush of popularity dies down I don't think this telling of the Chernobyl story will be very well respected.
They should have just went ahead and had a truckload of different scientist characters even if they thought it would be confusing or redundant for the viewer. They worried too much about the brainlets.
Aiden Miller
Perhaps you should refer to individual anons instead of lumping everyone who disagrees with you into some convenient label.
Xavier Rodriguez
REPENT BEFORE THE ALL MIGHTY GOD INFIRMARY, GOOD TIDINGS AND LUCK WILL BEFALL YOU ONLY IF YOU TYPE “I AM IN SHOCK, TAKE ME TO THE INFIRMARY.”
I swear all you have to do to get popular on Yea Forums is have a character that is just a complete asshole to everyone he meets and then there will be a segment here who shouts BASED ASSHOLE GUY and makes memes of him.
Jaxon King
Chernobyl being bad is simply not a valid opinion, it's a product of a whiny and obnoxious worldview and puts you clearly in a category of tasteless crybabies. Now I'm happy to label your kind however you'd like but until you nominate some term you'd prefer, i'm going with /pol/cunt
You can see the actual helicopter crash on youtube which looks almost the same you actual retard

I don't give a fuck about "mary sues" but I do think it's strange that the entire intellectual force in charge of handling this complex and incredibly urgent problem is two scientists. I understand that there are brainlet audence members who don't want to watch a show with to many characters but still, it just seems absurd. After Gorbachev was told that that it was a core meltdown, I kept waiting for the team of hundreds of the top Soviet scientists to descend upon Chernobyl, but they never came.
I read a review by a russian guy. His major problem was that show starts with sekret forbidden tapes with truth hidden by KGB then disregards things recorded on those tapes to add unnecessary drama. So much for muh hidden turth.

Matthew Perry
Having two people """represent""" what was likely a massive team of dozens of people is fucking nonsensical. If I knew nothing about the Chernobyl disaster and warched this I would assume it was mostly a story about how a single heroic female saved millions of lives. It's as if you took Saving Private Ryan and turned it into Capitan America, with one capeshit hero singlehandedly vanquishing all the Nazis.

Bro, it's russian information control, just like the election. They're trying to "contain the spread of misinformation"
Do not worry about this shit. OP is one of the russian commies. There are quite a lot of them in Russia and they are afraid that the russians will find out that the cause of the catastrophe is a stupid soviet government. They look for minor bugs in the show to say that the whole show is shit.
You are the reason why most media now is pure capeshit. You barely even register what's going on the screen and string together some hamfisted mental image of the show from the little bits of information you manage to understand while 90% of everything is flying straight over your head. Then, if the show doesn't make it extremely clear what is going to happen (or already happened) in at least 10 occasions you end up missing the point entirely and start complaining how stupid the show is. The truth is, the stupid was inside you all along.

Is Dyatlov the ultimate /pol/ tinfoil hat wearing shitposter?
Jack Roberts
I don't get any of this. Alita is a movie. It's on topic. Why should they have to fight to keep a thread at all?
You have not refuted anything I wrote because you have no actual point. You're a shitposter.

>alitaposters finally got the axe mods finally = gods it's literal waifu-posting. there has been zero discussion about the movie at all. it's all just posting about their bug-eyed shit-tier waifu.

Austin Butler
>it's literal waifu-posting Waifu posting only counts if it is an actress and her personal life. Alita being a fictional character does not violate the waifu rule. Additionally, much of the Alita threads generate a variety of OC. Additionally to that addition, I have been in a few and there is usually an ongoing discussion about the movie from people who have just watched it.

I would recommend watching the first episode. It's the most honest. Then just read the wiki pages.
Zachary Morris
I watched the first episode after seeing all the Yea Forums hype and it was incredibly boring and felt like there was nothing at stake. Then I read about the SJW revisionism inserting a mary sue as the female saviour and apparently the first episode is considered the best so yeh i'm not going to watch the rest
Owen Diaz
I don't think you'll be missed user.
Landon Lewis
Agree with you.
How anyone can draw the conclusion that it was the radiation is beyond me. How stupid is the average person? That scene clearly showed that it was the lack of visibility with the smoke that caused the pilot not to see.
Parker Morgan
Yea Forums janitors edited their waifu rule to include animated waifus. this is why /alita/ has been deleted. the OC of waifuposters about their waifu is only valuable to waifuposters, which are not allowed. the threads always have the same 30 IPs. it's unironically just a discord server in the form of a general.

He means the literal tranny general about "I am Jazz".
Brayden Murphy
I agree with you. I complained about it on plebit and got flamed. The show should have been more accurate to history. So many distortions of history. The whole story is incredibly interesting -- in real life! It didn't need these fabrications in the slightest.
imagine being so far gone that you see the word tranny and instantly start foaming about /pol/
how far into transitioning are you freak? are you part of the 40% yet?

sorry the janitors did their job for once upon checking the site archive, there have been thee threads for /jazz/ . one of them got 1 reply. one of them got 6 replies. and the other one from 3 days ago that hit bump limit, likely because a new season of the show occurred this year. the difference is /alita/ is a waifu thread dedicated to a movie that came out months ago, which they rarely if-ever discuss, while /jazz/ is an ongoing television show. additionally, /jazz/ poster don't seem to make the dilation-filled bundle of flesh that their show is based around a waifu. more of a human car crash. I am not condoning the quality of the threads and encourage you to report any posts that you deem to be shitposting and off-topic when you see them.
Liam Howard
Do you ever wonder if someone would start to derail a thread into a Yea Forums rules discussion in an attempt to get a thread about something they don't like deleted?
It's almost like countries being run exclusively by militant despot niggers and niggers in general won't become Wakanda in the end even without "whitey devil oppreshun".
Ofcourse this is racist, these people are inherently just as intelligent when given the proper background and opportunity, hence the utopia that is Detroit.
Juan Sullivan
>Propaganda show gets called out wahh stop revealing the truth!
I bet this is an actual janny posting. This is about how dumb they are.
>thee (three) threads for /jazz/ there was a thread in the catalog for most of the day today. It probably went to bump limit. There have probably been 100+ jazz threads over the last year. Your thinking a search for /jazz/ in the subject field is enough is idiotic.

Of course it was caused by men. Women don't contribute anything of relevance to mankind so they don't cause shit.

Why are rbmk power plants so big? What is needs all that space and stuff
Jeremiah Stewart
there's been a general for that tranny freak for up to 6 months now. you know this.
moreover that show does not produce enough content to warrant a general, so 90% of the thread is peopel posting about the personal life of that tranny and his tranny friends and other trannies discussing tranny issues. it's blatantly off topic and should have been deleted when the 10 IPs who post there tried to force it on the board. Instead the janny team let it fester because it suits their political agenda.

Ryan Wright
He's talking about the helicopter crash. And you're an idiot who can't seem to understand more than two sentences. No one is disputing that a helicopter crashed. It's that the helicopter crash in the show is nothing like what happened in real life.
1. It didn't happen because of radiation. 2. It happened months later.
The version of it in the show is a complete fabrication for TV drama purposes.
But all of this has already been explained in the thread a half dozen times if you'd just fucking read you fucking shit for brains waste of life.
Alexander Kelly
