The 100: The Complete Third Season (2014 - 2015/Warner Archive Blu-ray Set)



Picture: A Sound: B+ Extras: B Episodes: A-



After nuclear apocalypse, humanity had survived in space on Ark for 100 years, but the Ark is dying and sends 100 'fugitives' to see if Earth is habitable again. Not only did they discover Earth is habitable, but there are other survivors, 'Grounder' natives tribes, 'Mountain Men' people who survived in a nuclear bunker, and it's a brave, new and dangerous world. After the Ark crashes to Earth, the Grounders and the Ark Survivors or 'Skycrew' unite to defeat the Mountain Men who survive off the blood and marrow or the Grounders and Skycrew. And while there are tentative truce exist between the tribes, a new more even deadlier unseen enemy now walks among them...


The 100: The Complete Third Season (2014 - 2015) picks up after the defeat of the Mountain Men, Clarke is haunted by the lives she took to save her people and has left and gone missing. Clarke becomes political pawn between the tribal leaders and a bounty is placed on her head. After the death of Maya, Jasper has become a drunken junkie and will do anything for a fix. Octavia has left and sided with the Grounders and without Clarke or Octavia, Bellamy has reverted back to being an idiotic bully. Monty is reunited with his mother, but is forced to spy on his friends. Arcadia leadership has fallen to Pike a survivor of Farm Station who proves to become a dictator killing their Grounder allies and starts another war. Meanwhile, the savage Ice Nation Tribe sees a chance to take over all tribes. But now, they face A.L.I.E. the A.I. that destroyed the world and has begun secretly chipping the humans, taking over their minds and manipulating all tribes.


This was a post apocalypse sci-fi TV series, and while no one is a hero, everyone is just trying to survive, but the whole problem is peace is rare (and often abused). Leaders fight for the survivors of their people and would be forced to kill other tribes in order to do so.


The 1080p 1.78 X 1 digital High Definition image and lossless DTS-HD MA (Master Audio) 5.1 mix are great and far outdo the show on DVD as we saw on the previous season set we reviewed (see link below), increasing the show's impact. Extras include Arkadia: From Wreckage to Salvation, Ice Nation: Brutal and Fierce, Wanheda: Clarke's Journey, Polis: Grounder Capital, 2015 Comic-con Panel, a Short-Lived Victory: Unlocking the Season 3 Finale, Pre-Viz Stunts, gag reel and unaired scenes.
