Line 1: {{work}} [[Fringe ~~(TV)~~/Characters\|Fringe Characters Hub]] '''Massive Dynamic''' Line 6: == '''Massive Dynamic''' == [[File:massivedynamic001_3452.png\|frame]] {{quote\| ''"[[Slogans\|What do we do?]] [[Mega Corp\|What don't we do?]]"''}} Massive Dynamic is a multi-billion-dollar corporation founded by William Bell, and is responsible for research, development and production in a variety of different high-tech fields. These include, but are not limited to; weapons testing, robotics, medical equipment, aeronautics, genetics and pharmaceuticals. Line 12: Tropes associated with Massive Dynamic: * [[Big Good]]: Very sinister version, but still probably the closest thing the series has to one. * [[For Science!]] * [[Mega Corp]] * [[Phlebotinum Du Jour]] == {{spoiler\|Walter Bishop}} == {{quote\| The current CEO of Massive Dynamic. See [~~http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php~~[Fringe/Characters/~~FringeASide~~A Side\|Main Characters: A Side]].}} == William Bell == ==== '''William Bell''' ==== [[File:willbell_459.png\|frame\|"[[Anti -Hero\|I've been waiting quite a long time for this.]]"]] ''Portrayed by [~~http://en.~~[wikipedia~~.org/wiki/Leonard_Nimoy~~:Leonard Nimoy\|Leonard Nimoy]]'' {{quote\| ''First Appearance:'' Season 1, Episode 20: "There's More Than One Of Everything"}} The {{spoiler\|former}} CEO and founder of Massive Dynamic, the leading manufacturer in cutting edge technology and military weaponry. An old lab partner and friend of Walter Bishop, he and Walter conducted numerous experiments back in the day in an attempt to learn the secrets of the alternate universe. Line 32: ----- Tropes associated with Bell: * [[Anti -Hero]]: Type III-IV * [[Back ~~From~~from the Dead]]: ** {{spoiler\|In "Os", he returned by possessing Olivia}}. * [[Badass]] Line 41: * [[Bunny Ears Lawyer]] * [[The Chessmaster]] * [[Corrupt Corporate Executive]]: [[Playing ~~With~~with a Trope\|Played with]] in Season 1 and part of Season 2, but eventually shown that while he's benevolent, he is without a doubt morally grey. When they meet again, Walter considers him one. * [[Crazy Prepared]] * [[Deadpan Snarker]] Line 48: * [[Grand Theft Me]]: {{spoiler\|Possesses Olivia's body via his "soul magnets".}} * {{spoiler\|[[Heroic Sacrifice]]}}: Twice. {{spoiler\|In [[Fringe ~~(TV)~~/Recap/S02 /E23\|"Over There"]], Bell gave his life to help the Fringe team cross back to the prime universe. Cue the outcries of "[[He's Just Hiding]]", which were right. Sort of.}} {{spoiler\|In "Lysergic Acid Diethylamide", after possessing Olivia's body, Bell instigates the [[Journey to ~~The~~the Center of ~~The~~the Mind]] to save her while fully aware that doing so will kill him. He lies to Walter in order to accomplish this, claiming that something can be done to save his consciousness, even though it was never possible.}} * [[Intoxication Ensues]]: Both he and Walter are quite proud of their past LSD trips. * [[Jerkass]]: Maybe a little bit... {{spoiler\|Whilst in Olivia's body, his shameless hitting on Astrid certainly counts as awkward as hell... Secondly, despite knowing the risks, he still took over Olivia's body without a second's hesitation. And of course, many could still argue his opening of Massive Dynamic right after chopping up Walter's brain.}} * [[Leonard Nimoy]] * [[Mad Scientist]] Line 58: * [[Man of Wealth and Taste]]: He drinks [[Lost\|MacCutcheon whiskey, in which a single swallow of is worth more than Desmond's monthly paycheck.]] * {{spoiler\|[[Not Quite Dead]]}}: Oh baby yeah! * [[Well -Intentioned Extremist]]: ...Where to begin. Firstly, he's the one who made Walter insane, and treated him himself within the institutions - all in an attempt to protect the secrets of crossing universes. He's also the one who administered coretexiphan to Olivia, and experimented on her as a child. Not to mention, he's the one who wrote ZFT, and was indirectly responsible for David Robert Jones' terror spree. He also designed the Shapeshifter technology, and Walter suspects have he aided Walternate in the development of the ''Wave Sink Device No. 3''. * In Bell's defence, while he did make Walter insane, he did so at Walter's request. Line 68: [[File:sharpnina_2536.png\|frame\|"[[Enigmatic Minion\|We've reached a point where science and technology have advanced at an exponential rate for so long... that it may be far beyond our ability to regulate and control it.]]"]] ''Portrayed by [~~http://en.~~[wikipedia~~.org/wiki/Blair_Brown~~:Blair Brown\|Blair Brown]]'' {{quote\| ''First Appearance:'' Season 1, Episode 1: "Pilot"}} The Chief Operating Officer of Massive Dynamic, she is in fact the de facto Man In Charge of it during William Bell's absence - which is almost always. While her motives were at first foggy at best, she has proven herself to be a valuable ally to Fringe Division and will help them any way she can. Line 78: * [[Big Good]] * [[The Dragon]]: To William Bell. ** [[Dragon -in -Chief]] * [[Enigmatic Minion]] * [[Grandma, What Massive Hotness You Have!]] * [[Hollywood Cyborg]] * [[Mysterious Past]] Line 91: ''Portrayed by Ryan McDonald'' {{quote\| ''First Appearance:'' Season 2, Episode 14: "Momentum Deferred"}} The chief science engineer of Massive Dynamic, Brandon works directly under Nina Sharp. When tasked, he assists Fringe Division in any way he can. Line 97: Tropes associated with Brandon: * [[The Dragon]]: To Nina Sharp, and to an extent, {{spoiler\|Walter}}. * [[For Science!]] * [[Hollywood Nerd]] * [[Proud to Be Aa Geek]] * [[Red Herring]]: Also somewhat counts as a [[Crowning Moment of Funny]]: {{spoiler\|No, Brandon isn't the one going around whacking shape shifters}}. He's just trying to enjoy his sandwich... Line 105: [[Category:Fringe Massive Dynamic]] [[Category:Characters]] [[Category:Fringe]]
