Can't trust dem Inners, na desh bera de belt!
Source: The Expanse S03E09
I have absolutely no idea if I got the belter right in the title, but I tried!
It's supposed to say "there is only the belt"
Here's the full epic speech: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K7HexX3Oxso
(Don't watch if you haven't seen anything from the and you'd like to begin, BECAUSE YOU ABSOLUTELY SHOULD. That little gif above doesn't spoil anything, though)

The problem is this has been an overused plot device on that show. Every time the belters are an obstacle someone makes some rousing speech

Thank you James S.A. Corey AKA Daniel Abraham and Ty Franck; keeping me entertained through the books and then this divine rendition.

I have JUST finished the last episode of season 4. BTW Camina arouses me
DocBox
I find this woman extremely attractive.
wobbleyheadedbob
That's just because she is extremely attractive.
chrishallett83
That's because she is! Also a great actress.

S4e10 review without spoilers: the enemy's gate is down. This was my favorite season and I am sooo waiting for s5 to DROP.
NotaCPA
dude, spoilers...I've watched it already. this is a huge spoiler
roguishdrummer
I felt it was far enough removed from context to not be a spoiler. Also the book has been out for a while. But sorry.
NotaCPA
Given creative license they've taken its till not cool to do this. Not gonna rage on you but no more "hints"

She is so HOT!!
Individualsocksinthewashingmachine
I like Elvi Okoye
mwbowen
Yup
The13thDude
Especially when she’s angry
datpo
yeah my uh, my belta unlowds when I see her.
efalla2
SOOO damn hot. She became like half the reasonI watch the expanse
Gheldan
I don't know why but I find her so much more attractive in this show with her crazy heavy eye shadow than I do otherwise.
AWildDonnzy
i fully didnt recognize her in an interview she did. and her normal voice is sorta squeaky
dumbinsults
I know why. It's the crazy heavy eye shadow.
ourari
And also maybe because they know and value the character, but have no clue who the actress is as a person.

The Expanse ! A fantastic sci-fi show, the best so far in my opinion. Just finished S4 can’t can’t for S5. It’s on amazon prime.
REVENGE488
I have been watching season 4 and it’s great. This chick is absolutely fine as hell
LionFromTheNorth
I've just started the first season and I'm loving it!
tildesarecool
I finished s4: made some changes from book but I think entirely improvements. Does spoil book 5 if you're not there yet...
DrKriegersClone
I'm not done the season, but that seems smart. Book 4 was thin enough on big events they should start the free navy here and finish in S5.
kylania
Meh, every episode is the same: so awesome then an amazing cliffhanger that COMPELS you to watch the next episode, THEN THE SEASON ENDS! :(
AgamemnonsMemes
"i'll just watch one or two and pace myself" complete lack of self control means i'm done in two days
mwbowen
Like...every tv show ever? That's kinda how it works.
TheRocketFiend
Dem books tho!
Fips
Books do exist if you are too impatient :D I'd like to keep the show as exciting as possible, but I might budge... Books are top notch, too.
kylania
Season 4 taught me I missed a book, entirely! Thought I was caught up but nope! It does explain why the later books made little sense.
Fips
The book to season 4 is supposed to be the worst one. We got an awesome season out of still. But now so much waiting :|
concorde77
When you can finally binge the entire season in one shot
v
yesallwaifus
Read the books, they're very good :)
HyoukaYukikaze
I would. But i have huge problem with books. Whenever one grabs me, i don't stop until i finish or get too exhausted to read.
HyoukaYukikaze
The latter sometimes doesn't work tho....
thisismyusernamenowiguess
Having watched the show will that spoil the books any? I saw phenomenal reviews about the books, I'm already into season 4 of the show
Flamboyatron
Not really. You should just do it. The books are phenomenal.
between2hills
I concur!
Binsto
What books are these? and ive already watched s4, do i read all of em or can i pick up where it left off?
Flamboyatron
It's easier if you search for Expanse Book Series. And I'd read them all. There's enough differences between the show and books to justify.
Binsto
What about the prequel books and the inbetween books?
Flamboyatron
They have different titles, but the entire overarching series is called The Expanse.
SnugglesaurusRex
I just watched a couple interviews with her. SHE IS FUCKING ACTING! She is nothing like her character. She's giggly and silly. So amazing.
OrdinarilyBob
I've heard of the Expanse, but have never seen it... Is it worth watching (as someone who generally loves sci-fi/fantasy)?
belindashort
Absolutely
Flamboyatron
Oh hell yeah. It's kinda like GoT in space for a while. As said before, best thing to happen to scifi in a while. Read the books, too.
BabyYodasChickenTendies
Yes, you will love this show if you like sci-fi. I’m just glad a good show exists right now! Hope bezos keeps this one going
HyoukaYukikaze
But you might want to wait for season 5, season 4 ends with a cliffhanger....
HyoukaYukikaze
I hate cliffhangers...
OrdinarilyBob
GASP! SPOILERS!!! Hehe j/k No worries. I appreciate the heads-up.
einthedog2
Best thing that happened to scifi in a while
OrdinarilyBob
Ok, cool... And it's on Amz Prime Video I see... I'll add it to my Watch List. Thanks.
OriginalSim
The books are very good. The series mangles them a bit but is well worth watching.
Binsto
What books are these? and ive already watched s4, do i read all of em or can i pick up where it left off?
OriginalSim
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Expanse_(novel_series)
NoAsBigAsMediumJockButBiggerThanWeeJockJock
You can pick it up after S4, but i started with the (audio)books after watching S3 from the beginning. Still worth it.
HyoukaYukikaze
I know a few ppl who hate the show because of changes from the books, so you might want to start reading from the beginning.
JCstormz
I like s4 but its def the weakest season, the whole season felt more like an extended setup episode for after the season cliffhanger
KarakLohr
Yeah, didn’t feel as... meaty... as I’d hoped. 1400 new systems and the [SPOILER] whole season is about 1 planet? Meh. Still enjoyed it tho
SimonCroft
It's the first planet though, and it was settled illegally. It's a pretty decent western.
SnugglesaurusRex
I'm a sucker for planetary exploration stories, so I love it. Also the ways the colonists are fucked in an escalating way cracks me up.
The13thDude
It’s based on book 4 which is basically the start of Act 2 of the series. So you’re kind of right.
DaierMune
Book 4 (Cibola Burn) is definitely the weakest in the series so far, but books 5 & 6 were phenomenal
einthedog2
Agreed, I hoped they will kinda mix more of the latter storylines in
Fips
Yeah, but I really didn't mind. It already got renewed for Season 5 and shit will probably hit the fan again then.
The13thDude
Lol oh you have no idea.
DrKriegersClone
Did they go up to /spoiler in reply/ for the season break?
DrKriegersClone
Stealthed asteroid 9/11?
JCstormz
spoilers !!!!!!!!!!! spoilers!!!!!!!
JCstormz
ya that is the season ending cliffhanger
DrKriegersClone
Vindication. I thought that was too perfect not to break at, even though other people were saying they don't do cliffhangers.
Riorach
I stayed away from watching because I still have Firefly PTSD, but it’s back right? I can watch it and not die right?!
HighwayStar
Meh I kinda died when I saw season 3 was not as good as the first 2 seasons
CaffeineManic
It's not likely they'll ever finish all the books. But worth watching with books as backup to finish the story.
RenegadeSci
They'll finish writing all the Roci saga next year, but I don't know how they do the things that happen in the books after ~#6.
Flamboyatron
Yeah that'll be... interesting.
eastbayrae
Much better than Firefly.
scroobiusgav
Worst case scenario at least you would still be able to read the bookls.
SnugglesaurusRex
The cast of this one are not as A+ from day one as Firefly, but the story is great. You won't fall in love as hard. It's safe.
LeskoVacNazek
I actually enjoy this one more. It takes longer to develop but the characters and story resonate better with me.
somerandomusernamebecauseididntlikemyoldone
to be fair, firefly didn't have a lot of time to develop and was aired in the wrong order. I find them very different, but love them both
eastbayrae
The store is far deeper than Firefly ever was.
Riorach
After watching the entire first season(it’s great) I don’t think it’s fair to say the story was deeper. It’s pretty similarly deep on a 1:1.
eastbayrae
You need to watch 2 and 3, then get back to me. The rabbit hole is deep.
Riorach
I get that, but firefly didn’t get a second or third season, is the point. 1:1 for equal chance they’re super close on depth. Both great.
BeenthereDonesome
It'll most likely go for the entire 9 seasons it was written for, barring a disaster of epic proportions or if Amazon goes bankrupt.
SuperfluousMeh
Thinking of Amazon bankruptcy makes my belly jiggle like bowl full of ky jelly, which u can buy by the gallon on Amazon!
x1ph3r
You can get 50 gallon drums of lube on Amazon
Jeutnarg
So basically unless there's an apocalypse.
Sinikko
Bezos himself said he doesn't think Amazon will survive the next few decades. In his opinion this is how it should go naturally anyway
Jeutnarg
Well hopefully it doesn't take a few decades to make the remaining seasons :/
Fips
They are already filming season 5. Bezos loves this series, I don't think it'll end early.
schnager
fuck bezos. no show can ever be good enough to convince me to support Amazon
autoterran
Found 'em
Tyaldan
I normally wouldnt wish this on any show but i hope it pulls a simpson and runs forever. Absolutely tip top show so far.
Riorach
Thank fuck. I’ll watch while I’m wrapping.
RenegadeSci
Bezos loves that he's selling kindle books from the series AND getting prime memberships from the show. Books "finish" next year.
onecowboytoo
Can someone get Bezos to cheat on The Expanse with Dark Matter?
Riorach
Watched the entire first season, it’s lovely!
TrombeOverride
On one hand, that means we'll be meeting Marco Inaros eventually. On the other hand, that means we'll be meeting Marco Inaros eventually.
blessedbl4d3
We've met him. S4 aired last Friday.
TrombeOverride
Huh. I thought S4 is going to be dealing with Ilus. A little early for Marco to make his play. (Haven't actually seen S4 yet.)
Insom024a
Laying the ground work for seasons based on book 5 and 6. They did a great job this season.
PutThePRNDLinD
I'm a few episodes into season 4...which just dropped on Prime...and it is still good fun. In particular I like Amos even better than before
DerkatBaron
It lost something, there's no threat besides human stupidity
boomsman
That’s probably the biggest threat of all
lukelorian
Amos and Alex are the two best sidekick characters I've seen in a show in a long time
vindik8or
Amos is my second favourite character after Bobby Draper. He's like an ultra-violent Pinocchio.
Endetium
wasn't a huge fan of bobby the first half of the season, got better later. That expression on Amos in the last episode though... loved it.
ItWasASickOstrich
Psiberdragon
Love where Naomi has to sedate him and his response is basically "sorry I put you in that position. "
thecrazydruid
amos is my fav on that show , and season 4 was so good and in my defense is was bad weather the day it dropped and well i binged hard
Psiberdragon
Never apologize or make excuses for enjoying something like this. If it helps where you are, do it.
BojanglesTheFlyingCar
Ashford and Amos are freaking great this season.
The13thDude
That last scene with Ashford was haunting as hell.
SmartAssWithAKeyboard
Hush.
The13thDude
Lol sorry
Brandy321
Amos is one scary person. Even if on your side
BaalkpanBay
Just wait till season 8, if the show makes it that far. But in season 5, he has a larger part to play.
reineseele
As a book reader: PLS PLS PLS make it happen ^^
PutThePRNDLinD
"Ok...So does that mean we're not fucking anymore?" - 'What...no...I guess' - "Cool. See you later then."
bogus1983
"Please don't make me fight you... because if we do, who will fly the ship?"
The13thDude
Minor spoiler... that fucking smile was crazy scary
reineseele
He is (crazy) scary. Is that a spoiler?
The13thDude
Lol idk
Endetium
His smile in the last episode is far above his normal crazy/scary in the show so far, loved it
Mr13ojangles
His character really resonates with me... Not sure that is a good thing. Lol
reineseele
If you read the books it kinda depends on your personal philosophy and morality. ^^
Mr13ojangles
Are they a good read?
reineseele
very good read.
OtterlyMagnificent
S4 dropped already? Fuuuuck...I gotta get to it
championschampion
I hate to be cliché, but he’s a huge-r badass in the books.
TheGlow
Meanwhile I think hes slowly getting worse compared to the book version. Much more bad ass.
idpassr
Seeing how closely they can get to the book Amos is what keeps me watching. And they were really good in Season 4.
NotaCPA
Sad things happen...
tghood
What do you mean, it still good, i would say - it is better then the original 3.
Lapkin
Every book Amos gets better and better.
IAmCooCooCaChoo
Need to let Amos off the leash for one episode. Just fucking go nuts man.
jay20003000
I binged the entire season the night(second) I got the notification
Beefkins
I want that dude to play Doom guy.
TheDresden
Amos is my favorite
121992811
Yeah. I totally would have the sex with Amos.
TheDresden
Same...
FreedomWaffles
He doesnt shit where he eats
DrKriegersClone

rashindus1962
SecondSince
I wonder how you'd feel about book Amos instead of show Amos. :)
DoctorSniffles
What are some notable differences?
khora
NotaCPA
this was the scene I'm sure people are referring to. He's been working out...alot...more
rashindus1962
He's been recently through some space level shit, not just Baltimore (or was it Boston?) level shit.
MeanMisterClean
Does it get better after ep 1 of season 4? It was one of the most boring episodes of anything I've ever watched.
mikamala
It does. Episode one is mostly setup for the rest of the season, before things go pear shaped crazy.
MeanMisterClean
Well, I now watched the whole thing and I gotta say I don't know what you're talking about. They could've squeezed everything into 1 ep.
BabyYodasChickenTendies
Finished season 4. And I loved it, can’t wait for 5
MisterLemons
You're gonna love this part...

PutThePRNDLinD

It's now produced by Amazon.

RyanPilao
And I have already watched the whole thing. Now I have to wait... :(
3nd3rwiggin
With Season 5 guaranteed.
BATTLEPIMP
They just wrapped filming it apparently
3nd3rwiggin
Saw a Youtube that explained all the work that went into convincing Amazon to save the show. Cas Anvar worked his ass off.
BabyYodasChickenTendies
It’s my favorite show on amazon. Season 4 was great. Can’t wait for 5, hope it goes past 6/7! Keep it up amazon
IMKARLKINGOFTHEDUCKS
BIGGEST OF WOOOOTS!!!!!!
allthesameisawitfirst
Good. Cos seeing where season 4 went, shits about to go nuclear
SecondSince
Is that a pun? ;)
3nd3rwiggin
Think I am on 6 or 7. Will probably finish the season tomorrow. Today is my Friday. D&D tonight!
huggies130
I love this show and I'm still 2 episodes from the end of season 4,but this season just seems too disjointed. Like I'm waiting for the point
ItsGoTime
It gets to it
DrKriegersClone
That's largely a function of the book this season is mostly based on. I'm not far into S4 yet, but they seem to be laying groundwork for 1/
DrKriegersClone
2/ the Free Navy arc in books 5-6. It's smart adaptation if you know the big picture, but it does have pieces moving all over.
Insom024a
As some one book 7 and s4 finished. Your assessment is spot on. They did a great job portraying book 4 also
cmellis135772
Yeah I agree, it'll definitely make sense once you know the big picture. It's a shame that the realities of filming gives us 12 month gaps
reineseele
^ the sense in it all is that it feels disjointed for the characters in the show. Things happens and how it changes stuff. kinda
dumpsterjedi1
Amos is the just expanse Daryl Dixon. Still my favorite tjough
SnugglesaurusRex
The books were written before the show came out. Amos isn't racist. He's got PTSD from being used as a sex slave as a kid.
iratedragonborn
Correct me if Im wrong, but aint he a sociopath, too?
DrKriegersClone
I don't think so. He genuinely cared about Prax and Mei, for one example.
studog2010
Not a sociopath, he's a killer.
FistingBabyYoda
Nah he displays some tendencies but he has empathy for sure and he's capable of love. He uses logic as his method of deciding his actions.
PeterTurboIronCage
He's not a sociopath, he is kind to kids and people who are exploited. Because he grew up in horrible conditions his idea of morality is
PeterTurboIronCage
Very different to 'civilized' behavior. If you are a threat to him or his people he'll kill you just because it's easier than not doing so.
