Fringe - Season One


Recommended Posts

I liked tonight's episode. Pretty good show, just hope it doesn't get canceled .... seems like shows don't last long anymore :(

Doubt it, it has a full season order and the chances of renewal are very strong

@mathachew wow didn't notice that! good catch! (Y)

Just watched the recent episode!... Simply amazing.

did you notice this:

The crawl at the bottom of Daniel Chin's news report, reads "Elevator crashes in downtown Worchester office building... state safety officials are investigating". However, that is just a distraction from the clue to the next episode, which is on the coffee mug to the right, which reads INtREPUS.

The massive Dynamic logo can be seen on an "Unlock Your Hidden Potential" poster, at Dr. Fischer's clinic. Could Dr. Fischer be working for Massive Dynamic?

Our old friend, The Observer, can been seen getting off the elevator, just before Joseph Meegar drives it into the basement. How does he always know what is going to happen?

The clue from last week's episode was the flyer on the telephone pole. It made two appearances in Power Hungry: In Joseph's locker, and in the secret John Scott file for Dr. Fischer.

Also I decided to try typing this in the address bar.. and lookie what I found: http://www.massivedynamic.com/ :o

Whoa! Great find Jase. I too noticed the observer as he came out of the elevator. It's kinda odd that we didn't see him after that. Also, did anyone notice the odd flashing lights? Last time, I saw the blue lights on the corners of my TV screen. This time, I saw them in the middle of my screen (top-middle to be exact).

I noticed the Observer right off the bat, and actually had to rewind a bit to see if my eyes were fooling me or not.

That also makes me wonder... [i'd go back and check myself, but I don't have the episodes anymore] Does he show up in previous episodes? Before we 'met' him? I mean, we probably just noticed him there because we know about him now... I wouldn't be surprised if he was around in previous eps too.

Anyone else think that this show is really crappy?

I really wanted this to be good, but the acting is pretty bad, and so far the storyline and script is rubbish.

You are probably in a minority here 90% of the people here love it.

I was hoping that the actors would get into their characters would develop a bit more, but it doesn't seem to be happening.

I definitely think it could use some improving, particularly on the overall plot. It's supposed to be about "The Pattern", but you don't really get why "The Pattern" is important or anything like that and it seems like a weak attempt to tie everything together which I'm not sure I get since it's all experiments done by people, who are possibly all related somehow, particularly to Bishop's work I guess. I felt some episodes like the one with the burrowing torpedo were somewhat lacking (although the bald man is one of my favorite characters now along with Walter Bishop). Hopefully they'll be able to make "The Pattern" something more interesting.

That being said, I'll probably watch this until it ends.

    • This got me thinking, would you rather a self driving car prioritise protecting its passengers or everyone else? I'd choose the one that keeps me and my kids safest. At some point, these cars have to make those choices already, don't they? Wonder if we have a way to find out what way they lean.
    • The proportion (or number of iterations) has nothing to with this aspect of Copyright I am describing. In short, it doesn't matter how many times the manager tells you to change something or how. Your work product is always YOURS until and unless you then assign that to the person representing the client/company, usually for financial compensation -- either in salary or as a subcontract work for hire payment. if iterations determined copyright, then businesses would have learned to just keep making changes until they could claim they owned the copyright, without having to compensate the artist for their work. And that would be BAD. The only place where the amount of changes does have a role is in how much does a human modify a previous public domain work (from any source) before it is considered fair use or their own work, etc. For example, if a human makes substantial changes to a public domain (re: AI, by definition) work, then they can then claim that derivative work as their own...but NEVER the original version, of course. That's why anyone can make a movie about Dracula, for example, as long as it is based on the public domain novel, but not if they take new ideas from copyrighted movies made afterwards. As one of the people who personally advised the US Copyright Office on their recent ruling on these very issues, be assured that I specifically used the terminology precisely -- though I made it simple enough for laymen to understand it. If I made this confusing by doing so, I apologize. But, to be clear regarding your assumption that I would agree to your second statement that I quoted above -- the answer is NO. If AI does the work, no matter how much "direction" you give it, it cannot be copyrighted. All AI generated content is in the Public Domain and therefore the copyright cannot be assigned to ANYONE, even you -- until and unless substantial modifications are made to it BY A HUMAN BEING (yourself or a contracted artist/writer/etc.) and then that copyright on the derivative work is legally (in writing) transferred to you. This is a critical distinction. And it is important that people, especially AI sloppers, understand this. For example, YouTube is not paying AI slop generators for the copyright, etc. of their AI slop. What YouTube is doing is sharing AD REVENUE for permission to publish your AI slop. Copyright/ownership/rights never come into it. Importantly, that means that anyone can copy any AI slopware on YouTube, etc. and rehost it anywhere they want, even back on YouTube, and there is nothing legal that YouTube can do about it with regards to copyright protections, ownership, DMCA, etc. Anyone is legally free to use any AI slopware in any way they want. When this ruling was pending, I warned Disney legal of all of this before they did their OpenAI deal -- that it would literally dilute their entire IP portfolio forever. They ignored that warning for the PR and stock bump. But that is why, when the ruling came down last year, Disney quickly extricated themselves from that OpenAI deal, even eating the initial upfront fees -- followed closely by OpenAI ending their entire AI video generating business model. They adjusted their PR release dates to make this less obvious to shareholders, of course. Phew. I hope that this clears up the key distinctions for you and anyone reading. If you have any additional questions or even hypotheticals about AI and Copyright, please feel free to ask.
