So much going on in this it’s hard to know what I think of it all, though I know I would die for Tyson. Still lots of fun, but also still jarringly basic. And I can’t shake feeling like I’m not thrilled that the bad guys want to end “Western civilization” (just like me fr fr) while the good guys want to defend it. Also the Harry Potter parallels are more than superficial, and it's somewhat off-putting.
