        I watched season 1 until the sex scene and closed the tab.

        I watched all of season 2. They obviously did a course correct but were left being dragged down by the events of season 1.

        If they had kept his damn helmet on, done creative ways to mask his face, and kept the story about John’s early days up to Harvest, they would have done great. The fucked up so hard trying to make him into anything but a quippy alien murdering machine and I hate them for it.

            They did it right with Dredd.

            We never see John’s face in the source, we should never see his face on film. If they had only shot the back of his head, the reality is maintained and they can tease as much as they want.

            Any actor that respects the role should mandate his face is never shown, but Hollywood did Hollywood things and ruined the adaptation.

              Charge up a plasma pistol (to provide illumination) then find a way to back up a other players camera into your face visor.
