Was he really a genius
>>
>>214765493
He built a robot when he was six.
>>
Most unbelievable character on the show aside from Wendy.
>>
>>214765521
So did Anakin.
>>
>>214765493
>hasnt said a single smart thing
>is actually a cruel small man who never was a boy
most overrated character. the boy kavalier foot sucker poster is delusional.
>>
It would have been more interesting if he was an old man in a little boy’s body — but for real. He succeeded where Peter Weyland didn’t.
>>
>>214765537
Kavalier never tried spinning though.
>>
>>214765493
He is angry little man, who decided to hate everyone. He is a chud
>>
So Wendy just called him a butthurt old soul. Um okay. Nothing wrong with that.
>>
>>214765587
And he was stuck in the body and using the hybrids to test ways to get unstuck and put into a human body. And the boy kavalier we see is just an avatar being controlled by the real boy robot.
>>
>>214765587
>>214765653
No that’s stupid. Weyland was already a boy genius in his past. I don’t know why they had to copy his character. “But what if an even smarterer and youngerer boy genius??”. Sigh. Disney is so predictable.

Smart people can be dumb
>>
>>214765752
I didn't know that about Weyland. Now I hate this show a little more.
>>
>>214765788
This. Retard genius effect is real. The smarter you are the bigger the mistakes you make. You’re also prone to believing truly bizarre things. Likely coupled with mental illness.
>>
>>214765761
He’s right but he’s still mega cringe saying it.
>>
>>214765493
>Does dumb thing
>Does something even dumber
>Ends season being the most retarded idiot on island, alive only for plot convenience
>Genius kid
Bravo Noah

>>214765820
Atom the android was trying to get him to take his meds.
>>
>>214765887
Muh adhd

He didn’t even know how to fix his synths lul
>>
>>214766030
ADHD comment was so random, It's like in the writing room. Oh, What's a quirky condition.

Oh, I know ADHD.

We haven't mentioned it yet, but like surely they'll know?
>>
>>214765493
His robot buttler said he is, and possibly his mom.
>>
>>214765493
Not quite
>>
>>214766514
It was severe adhd, not just the regular type.
>>
>>214766543
All adhd is severe adhd lol
>>
There's a subtext here about how being smart doesn't matter when your decisions are driven by emotion. Kirsh briefly alludes to it before he gets cut off. But it's not articulated properly.
>>
>>214766738
Smart people make the biggest mistakes.
>>
>>214765537
Anakin was the chosen one tho
>>
>>214765493
No, a rat was pulling his hair and making him do all that stuff. Wait, that’s not the guy from Ratatouille
>>
>>214767284
He was a retard.
>>
How did he get trillions? Doesn’t make a splick of sense.
>>
>>214767940
He sued himself for building a fault synth that killed his father and he had to pay himself trillions

>wendy is now an all powerful morality-speech giving bitch because a xenomorph banged her head one time
i just can't with this show
>>
>>214767940
there's only so much wealth in the world. if five private corporations have all the money is the rest of the planet basically living in blade runner?
>>
>>214765493
he was an incel who needed a stern talking to by a stronk womyn
>>
>>214765493
no he was just jewish
>>
>>214768582
Jews are geniuses.
>>
>>214765493
so his dad owned prodigy corporation
his dad worked "in the factory" in other words he was the boss of the android factory
this kid stole some synth parts from dad's company, built a copy (atom eins) and told it to kill him
so he took control of his dad's company and made himself the figurehead while letting the android run it
shit show by the way, hope it doesn't get renewed
>>
>>214768962
they're effeminate narcissists
>>
>>214765493
He's a recent example of the problem with writing geniuses. You can't write a super genius if everyone writing him isn't a super genius also. So everybody just says he's a genius, he says he's a genius, and he's eccentric in his behavior so I guess the viewer should believe he's a genius. But it's never actually demonstrated why he's ostensibly so smart other than the fact that he is the head of a massive corporation. So it basically becomes "he's a genius because... He just is, okay?!"
>>
>>214765493
One way to tell if a story is well written is when there's a character who's supposed to be super intelligent and they never have to tell you how smart they are for you to believe it.
This faggot does nothing but tell you he's smart. Never does he say or do anything that surprises the audience, nor does he say anything smart. You're just told he like, built robots when he was a kid or the fact that he runs one of the biggest companies on earth and he's in his 20's. He's always passively reacting to events around him.
>>
>>214765493
he was supposed to but he had bad writers disease
>>
>>214765493
Idiot savant. Genius in a small area, and complete idiot in all other areas.
>>
I can’t help but simultaneously love and hate this character
>>
>>214767284
So was Kavalier. That's why he took over half the world and is a trillionaire. And also why he will be cast down by Wendy Skywalker, the chosen female who had ultimate force powers without even trying and was born to rule thr xenomorphs!
>>
>>214768962
No, they're bullshitters. They only excel at tricking people. They're not actually creative or smart. They do not build.
>>
>>214765493
He admitted that he stole his corporation from his father and used a synth to run it. He was just the figurehead. So he was the genius manipulator.
>>
>>214769403
Limitless book series did a good job of a regular person getting a boost in intelligence and the thought process behind his decisions.
>>
>>214770204
The fact that he's opposed to Wendy is the only reason I need to like him
>>
>>214765493
if he was, the show sure as hell didn't show it
>>
>>214765493
This guy would've made a fucking beautiful tranny if he was put on puberty blockers as a kid. What a shame. Is it weird to think this, you guys?
>>
>>214765521
Maybe thats like building a PC in the future
>>
>>214770204
The character is garbage. Awful name, awful concept and awful everything. BUT the actor playing him is this young British thespian and they're always immensely good performers and he really uplifted this nonsense character written by American s0ibugmen and women into something at least enjoyable. I hope he breaks out and has a big role like a villain in some Bond movie

problem with high IQ/genius characters is they by nature seem like they're doing random things to low IQ people.
look at elon musk - most people cannot comprehend that he runs 2-3 companies simultaneously and also shitposts in his off time.
so people pretend - it must be the money, he must be lying, govt shenanigans and funding etc etc
meanwhile he's built self landing rockets and has a working global satellite telecom network up.
it seems like magic/deus ex machina/cheating to stupid people you cannot write them any other way and make them comprehensible to the average person.
>>
>>214771509
also you might say "oh they can be written as savants/smart in one area" but that isn't a high IQ character.
having high IQ means you have high problem solving abilities by definition, almost nothing phases you really and you will off the cuff choose the most intelligent option most of the time which outmaneuvers everyone except other high IQ people.
the only relatability you can get is make them extra emotional or mentally unwell in some way but even then - they are really smart variants of those traits, they would not behave in a way comprehensible to the average person.
a high IQ american dude going through a bad breakup might move to beijing and set up a restaurant business there - that isn't relatable or interesting at all but that's probably him "slumming it" while getting over the breakup.
>>
>>214771509
Musk didn't build any of that shit kek. Just because you're on paper at the top doesn't mean you contribute anything useful or worthwhile. Most of the time they're trying to tardwrangle him so he's not fucking up the carefully crafting plans of the actual intelligent people in the companies. Same with Trump's dumb ass taking credit for real workers while being carefully distracted by shiny objects and mcdonalds so he stops fucking up. This idiot Kavalier couldn't even comprehend what Wendy's wifi powers would allow her to do and put a stop to them before she's able to destroy his whole company and kill off all his protectors who were also, of course, attached to said wifi with no security whatsoever.
>>
>>214771626
like i said low IQ people will always look at high IQ people as "cheating" in some way coz they can't comprehend what is going on.
if they actually showed kavalier as high IQ he would have figured all of that shit out long ago and just let it play out to see how this brand new tech would respond to it then pull the plug at the last minute coz what retard lets prototypes run around without a kill switch.
>>
I wish they made it more believable.
>>
>>214771690
>like i said low IQ people will always look at high IQ people as "cheating" in some way coz they can't comprehend what is going on.

It's more personality than anything. Some look at high IQ with awe and wonder. Others seethe with envy.
