Kelly Riley from Yellowston and Tom Hardy played the championship in a new edition that was ignored by science fiction

This post contains Spoilers Each of the 1961 and 2006 publications from “A for Andromeda”.

You maybe I heard about 2006 “A for Andromeda”, which Tom Hardy sees (then only four years of Leave an early impression on “Star Trek: Nemesis”Kelly Riley (herself is far from that The explosion in fame thanks to “Yellowston”Play its strands (along with Charlie Cox perfect). It is understood if you do not do that, as the BBC Four TELEMOVIE (with only 85 minutes’ operation time! But it is also a new version of the 1961 TV series of the same name written by Farid Huil and John Elliot. But what kind of inheritance has left the original “a for Andromeda”?

Well, the Hoyle and Elliot drama of seven parts of BBC-Fi was not less than the pioneer when it was first broadcast, with a plot about a super computer that helps to create a beautiful and frightening entity. Now, this was the way before the evil laptops became a recognized cup in the prevailing science fiction. In fact, Harlan Ellison did not create a supernatural computer even after six years in his story that won the approval of critics, “I have no mouth, and I have to scream.” But while Ellison’s AM is almost enough to eliminate humanity, just the presence of Andromeda in the Hell and Ellite series gives a new meaning to define life and what it means to be a human being.

“A for Andromeda” for 1961 does not overcome sugar or overcome the bush as well. It is a good and well -written work that combines existential terror and fictional technology to ask an interesting question: What will happen if humans can reach a line of code that can create an organism that appears organic but not a human being in the traditional sense? The tendency of people to reduce what it does not understand (while also adhering to their instinctive confidence) in the end, and these topics are submitted to “A for Andromeda” to Wonderful entry into this type of solid science fiction.

So, the promotion of the Hardy and Reilly TV, how does this cutting story compared to the original?

Strickland’s “A for Andromeda” follows the original series of the original series, focusing on a group of scientists who receive a radio sign – one of another galaxy – contains instructions to build a super computer. Once this device is completed, it provides the formula to create Andromeda (Reilly), which is an organic life shape that is supposed to behave as a loyal human. However, one of the scientists, John Fleming (Hardy), is seen by Andromeda with suspicion, noting that her intentions remain hidden as they were on the day she was born. In fact, Fleming comes to believe that it can actually prove that it is the cause of the fall of humanity rather than a catalyst for its progress.

But while the story’s meat is the same, Strickland follows a mysterious and overall approach to its implementation. Because of this, scholars He appears To work on something very complicated for words, but these delusions are the moment you are decided to look closely at.

The original Hoyle and Elliot series is far from perfection, as it suddenly retreats from the deepest philosophical questions for comfort in the plot. But the Strickland version does not even try to dive deeper, because it deals with the topics of first communication and communication between man and colors in the most imaginative ways. Moreover, its short narration in this story deletes the decisive context, which leaves us more confused than fascinated by the central relationship that chases the narration.

For example, we are never given the opportunity to understand the reason for the unstable of a microscopic computer (which helped it with enthusiasm) or what are the real Andromeda intentions. If we are supposed to criticize Andromeda’s demand for the personality, we will not be able to do this because it did not give the interior required for such moral dilemmas in the first place. The rest is a blurring of the artistic terms that have been delivered for it, as well as the non -inspiring special effects that do not do much to convince us of this future world and the people who inhabit it.

In the summary, it is clear that “A for Andromeda” of 1961 is the superior version of the story. Unfortunately, it has been often lost, with only one episode of the series currently available for our viewing fun.
