The 100 (Season 2 - 2014 / 2015)Trailer I've waited impatiently for the past 6 months for my
Library to get a copy of
Season 2 of
The 100 on DVD and it killed it. Literally. I loved
Season 1 and as much as I was looking forward to the followup, I was hard pressed to believe that it could outdo its rookie season. Not only does
Season 2 match
Season 1, it f*cking obliterates it to the point of making it look tame by comparison. Well,
Season 1 still rocks, but you get the idea by my analogy.
Season 2 is an absolute much-watch. Where do I begin? As I mentioned in my review for
Season 1, there are parts that are very reminiscent of
Lost. Well, this season relies heavily on
Lost in such a way that it almost felt like a homage of sorts. The
Acid Fog is basically the
Smoke Monster and the people of
Mount Weather are the "
Others", both of which live an idyllic life with all the creature comforts that most societies have. Well, up to a point.
That's where things get really f*cked up with what is happening inside the Mountain. At times it's brutal to see people being drained of blood in order to "save" the Mountain Men, Women and Children. This whole bunker is also reminiscent of the
Hatch. All that was missing was
Desmond. Oh, wait,
Henry Ian Cusick is on the show. Duh! The main plot of this season is
Clarke finding a way out of the Bunker with the intent of returning to rescue her people that she left behind and that's where the fun really kicks in, especially with the '
Sky People' making an uneasy alliance with the
Grounders. With them now joined at the hip, the overall arc for
Clarke is having to make the hard choices that are needed to keep her people alive and what transpires is fascinating to watch and gut wrenching to see because you know she is slowly losing herself with each choice that she makes that takes another life. There is one main character that she sacrificed that was truly shocking to see. I won't say more other than this, the ending completely turns the series on it's head...again. What the f*ck! I can't wait for
Season 3 to start in 2 weeks. Bring it on! I highly recommend
Season 2 as a
Buy. Now I'm gonna go watch the Bonus content that's on the DVD which as the
Comic Con Panel. I'll probably hit that first.
