Has it ever been pointed out that Psyche season 5 episode 7 title "Ferry Tale" has a dual Pokemon reference. I lost my poo poo when they did it. Edit: It is near the end when Shawn and Gus are duct taped together and run out of the church. Gus says something and Shawn says "I wanna be the very best." They start running and a familiar few notes from the Red/Yellow/Blue games play three times. Mr Hootington fucked around with this message at 03:53 on Jan 30, 2016 |

Grimm taught me an important life lesson: It doesn't matter if you repeatedly attempt to murder someone, their fiancee, and their friends, commit multiple rapes and end up causing the death of the fiancee - as long as you have the baby from On top of that, your rape victim will fall in love with you because when sperm from a man ends up inside a woman and she becomes pregnant, that produces a reciprocal reaction which causes the man to fall in love with her. That's just a biological fact about how pregnancy works. Everyone knows that, right?

I'm several seasons behind on Grimm at this point and after that + hearing about Juliette's poo poo from the last season I'm very glad for that fact.

I would say that's hosed up for a tv show, but then again, Once Upon a Time has messed up morality about rape too. Regina never got told poo poo about her crap with Graham and Zelena will probably never get poo poo about Robin.

Norwegian Rudo posted:The Juliette defense force (that only seems to exist here on SA) kind of lose all moral superiority when they ignore everything Juliette did in order to pile on Adalind. Do you mean, for instance, her job as a veterinarian, examining the cat Adalind brought (specifically for the purpose of poisoning Juliette)? Or do you mean things that Juliette did as a Hexenbiest? I'm not ignoring that. It was a ham-handed piece of character assassination of Juliette done apparently for the specific purpose of trying to make the viewers hate her. (It worked, but the writers dagger was clearly visible.) The obnoxious part is that it was transparently obvious even at the time that it was intended to clear the way for the producers/writers to pair Nick up with their pet favorite character. The writers have apparently forgotten that Adalind has spent literally four entire seasons trying to gently caress up Nick's life. Just sixteen episodes ago, Adalind broke into Nick's house for the explicit purpose of kidnapping or killing Juliette. The writers have spent the last part of the fourth and all of the fifth season acting as if Adalind was Nick's mistress and not his rapist. Juliette becoming a Hexenbiest was a (stupid) consequence of an attempt to reverse the curse Adalind put on Nick when she RAPED him. So that's tied directly back to Adalind's actions, so it is Adalind's fault, just like most of the terrible things which have happened since the end of Season 1.

Wow, this show sounds like garbage, I'm glad I never watched it. Although garbage might be a strong word. edit: Watching season 3 of Justified for the second time and my roommate just pointed out that Ellstin Limehouse is played by Mykelti Williamson, aka the guy who plays Bubba in Forest Gump.

I mean, I'm a fan of were-[something other than a wolves] and hyenas are pretty cool. I'm not a fan of making Hitler into things he wasn't. The scary thing about Hitler and the Nazis was that they were just people. edit: When you use fictional associates of Hitlers, it's all gravy. Hellboy and Indiana Jones are extremely my poo poo.

The morality of Once Upon a Time is so roundly hosed that I can't imagine how anyone could possibly watch that show if they weren't able to turn that part of their brain off. Like... Regina's a loving mass murderer terrorist evil motherfucking psycho and she's nothing compared to Rumple. And they're just like "well, you did something good and you're family and its not like there's any actual authority or government or rule of law in our magical town so whatever the gently caress." I actually think part of the fun of the show is when a new character shows up and they're like "HOLY gently caress, ITS THE EVIL QUEEN! SHE MURDERED MY ENTIRE FAMILY!" and the Charmings just go "No, its ok. She adopted a kid and her heart grew three sizes so now its all cool." Its just so hosed up you have to laugh.

Grimm had a few seasons as a solid bit of silly, lightweight entertainment, perfect as a little show to watch over the weekend. Then the writers basically went completely up their own asses after the season 4 winter hiatus.

Sober posted:Yeah I still watch and love OUAT and I still have to basically overlook that part of the show. I've had friends drop it for that or similar reasons and I completely understand how stupid that is and how irrational I am for liking the show regardless of it. Yeah, I enjoy the show but I enjoy it in a totally surface level way that just gets a kick out of Merida from Brave, Belle from Beauty and the Beast, Mulan, and a werewolf Little Red Riding Hood going on a quest together. Its my inner child's play room. If I stopped and thought about any of the actual plot or morality or relationships in the show then the whole thing would fall apart real quick. Its why I can't understand when someone's like "wait, you're going to take your kid to Hell? This is so stupid." Yeah, you're right. That's messed up and they're terrible parents and doesn't make much sense logically. But you JUST noticed that? Also, I'm not sure why I said "gently caress" so many times in that post. I think that was just overcompensation for the "inner child" thing in some way.

So to summarize; Juliette is excused everything because she was a Hexenbiest, but Adalind should burn in Hell for all the evil things she did... while she was a Hexenbiest. Basically all I care about is that I find Adalind more entertaining with the good guys than I ever did Juliette.
