Probably totally unrelated, but I found this 0167 reference to Uncial 0167, which relates to the Gospel of Mark. Do you think it could mean something? :)
Very possible!XD Didn't even think to look it up! That would be interesting to say the least and I can't imagine that spirituality wouldn't play a role in this series.
It's a Bad Robot show, so I figured there would be a hidden meaning to the promotional material. Haha, their shows make look for hidden messages in everything these days. :P
Greek mythology could be great, I don't know how that would tie in with Christianity though? I'm totally not familiar with the Bible, so I don't know what the Gospel of Mark is about. I need to Google that.
Well IMO Bad Robot goes the spiritual route, as opposed to a religious route, were they find the common ground in human spirituality.. The Unical 0167 is a Greek manuscript for the New Testament (As You said a Codex for The Gospel of Mark)...Mark is also known as "John Mark" (Our main characters name is "John" Kennex, which is surely a pun for "connects"). So it's seems that Greece in the 7th century has Christian infuence (and not just polytheism) John Mark is also "the companion of Peter"!! Some speculate that parts of The Gospel of Mark come from Homer's "The Odyssey", as there are parallels.
Even in Fringe we wrestled with a Christianity, Buddhism, with a very small dash of Greecian (Peter's mom/ "Peter and the Machine comic book "Ancient Greece" featured)
forget being human u don't want to be almost human, just be that supernatural sci fi dude u are. oh i watch will watch both shows. just saying being human is wack stay abnormal.
Could not agree with you more and thanks for the more detailed explanation! This attention to detail and layered messaging with hidden meanings is exactly why I love Bad Robot shows and movies! :)
NOTE: Name-calling, personal attacks, spamming, excessive self-promotion, condescending pomposity, general assiness, racism, sexism, any-other-ism, homophobia, acrophobia, and destructive (versus constructive) criticism will get you BANNED from the party.
I love the model name (no doubt short for Dorian)/number with little message: DRN-0167 - Protect Yourself. The Future is Coming.
ReplyDeleteVery reminiscent of Fringe's final season (Anomaly XB-6783746) Can't wait!
Freaky. :)
