See THIS is why I trust the writers because the whole point of the deadline passing was so we could SEE Poseidon surrendering for Percy. The show has given Poseidon a more active and loving role in Percys life. The gods pride would never let them surrender to one another. But Poseidon knew his brother wouldn’t spare his son’s life. And he knew the only thing that would spare his son’s life was him surrendering. ALSO FURTHER CEMENTING THAT PERCY IS HIS FAVORITE CHILD! The writers pens this episode>>>
I just watched the last episode (spoilers) and I just cannot get over it. These lines "Remember this. Freedom is a pure idea. It occurs spontaneously and without instruction. Random acts of insurrection are occurring constantly throughout the galaxy. There are whole armies, battalions that have no idea that they've already enlisted in the cause. Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward." from Nemik and then they are proven SO TRUE
Like in the last episode, it really struck me how little Cassian mattered-- okay, obviously he mattered, he saves Bix in the midst of all the chaos and it is his show and i'm obsessed with him so of COURSE my boy mattered but--
But so much of the rebellion is not because of him. he doesn't get a big action star moment or dramatic speech or direct role in the rebellion of Ferrix--tbh, he is less involved than he was in the prison break.
instead his success is directly linked to OTHERS spontaneously deciding to revolt. It's maarva's speech, yes, but it's also the town deciding to have the funeral at noon, like they wanted, instead of the time on their permit; it's them bringing many more than 40 people. it's the boy who made the bomb (who i THINK is the son of the man who was tortured and then hung, apologies for not remembering his name); it's brasso just swinging that brick for all he's worth; it's the man running up to start the anvil/gong sound again and just pushing off the storm trooper who tries to stop him; it's this little chain of rebellions-- literally none at all organized by any kind of higher power or group-- that made it so Cassian could save Bix, and escape to join the rebellion and ITS JUST SO GOOD.
I am just obsessed with this show. i want season 2 out immediately.
Like, the thing I love most about the personification of Death in Fall of the House of Usher is the metaphor really works
She only tells each person things they already know. She is a voice to their guilt, a voice to their doubts, a voice to their fear. Each person had an opportunity to make a different choice, which she gives voice to.
Lenore is the only one who doesn’t get a choice - and it was moving that Death treated Lenore with compassion, with mercy, at the end.
Like I’ve been listening for a while but like seeing it live has changed my life
Also the cast and the other people there were so fucking lovely, I got so many compliments on my outfit and the fans were so welcoming. Everyone I spoke to was so excited for me as it was my first show.
Literally one of the best theatrical experiences of my life, I will be back
(Also as a forensics student seeing a forensic pathologist on a west end stage was absolutely the best thing ever, you can bet that I will be cosplaying him)
THIS SHOW!!!! These two episodes were good. This show was so FUN to watch. Of course, the finale is not without its flaws, but this was a solid ending, to me at least. I wouldn’t mind a Season 2, but it ended on a good ending, so I’m satisfied with the show not getting one as well. Also props to Simon for getting therapy, you go dude, and also for him realizing how much Betty sacrificed for him. I also love how Fionna and Cake’s world became canon and to see what happened to Baby Finn! I also like how Fionna grew to care for her world being normal (well, as normal as it can be considering Cake is still a talking cat) This was a great show!
