Marvel's LEGION TV show by FX

It sure looks like Mojo. But that may be the show creators trying to throw us off the trail so soon.

That could be what David looks like right now. Ensconced in a hotel room like Howard Hughes.

Was just flicking through Spurrier's X-Men Legacy to look for similarities (because if feels a bit rich not even crediting him given how much work he put into the mind-prison idea) and stumble upon his closing statement which was summed up with:

Just because something's not real doesn't mean it's not important.

I imagine the same summary may be needed after this series.

Why would Mojo also be played by Dan Stevens?

You see Dan Stevens in that picture? I just see a large man looking quite menacing.

I can only find short lists of the music in this show:

Masala Fair: The Scene
Never My Love: The Association
Happy Jack: The Who
She's a Rainbow: The Rolling Stones
Up the Beach: Jane's Addiction
Pauvre Lola: Serge Gainsbourg

I didn't keep the show so does anyone know of any more? Sure there seemed to be more than this?

Yes. Look at the brow line, the nose shape and the dark eyes that he often had in this show. You can't hide the fact that he is good looking beneath the makeup.

Man, that is so close. It's hard to say no to your thinking.



What a tricky show. It can go either way. But now you have me questioning what I saw.

Made a collaborative Spotify playlist if you search for Legion (TV Series FX). Apparently there was a 160 song playlist used to inspire the actor.

Is it all in his head? Actually, why should it matter? Either way, it's just interesting stuff happening on a screen in our reality. Whether things are happening in a fictional space once removed or in one that's twice removed from our reality, it's all still just fiction.

Yes I agree, but there are a surprising number of people that just can't get beyond the idea that it could all be "just a dream". I guess because there are a lot of stories for which that ending is a bit naff. The secret is to make the dream meaningful.

For example Jacob's Ladder is sometimes accused of being just in Jacob's head. Critics called it just "An Occurance At Owl Creek Bridge" reworked which managed to denigrate both the masterful short story and the movie in one dismissive swipe. But it isn't anything like that story. It is a meaningful exploration of the journey through hell myths with a twist of mystic theology. In my view a masterpiece of cinema. At least three people that I have recommended it to have been non-plussed by the ending and decided they didn't like it.

The same could be said of the highly subjective ending of True Detectives season one. Not a dream story but divisive because of its religious symbols and its strangeness.

what a good soundtrack !

I loved that scene. It was cool with the old Stones rock. Perfect song!

I wonder what people who suffer from forms of schizophrenia would think of this episode?
