Not to take away from Cena but he’s nowhere near the range of Bautista. Bautista is fantastic and a much better actor than Dwayne. And so is Cena apparently. text editor posted:I'm gonna go further on this prediction: Murn, who we now know is/was a butterfly, was the one who angrily insisted that they don't go up butts during the orifice powerpoint slide scene, will be the one to crawl up white dragon's butt after dragon impulsively hate-crimes Murn since he can't go in the mouth because of anti-scabies tech. that butterfly will use the nazi power armor to fight the cops/nazi horde. Final scene will be peacemaker and butterfly father trying to be father/son Very plausible. There are some weak points in that armor after all.

Khanstant posted:Is there any reason to oppose the butterflies? Only reason I can see is if you're already some kind of radical pro-human activist or something. Don't know much about the butterflies yet besides they have as much right to be here as us and that on the surface they seem much less environmentally evil than humanity. One cow thing to feed them all, doesn't seem to drain the Earth in the process like when we feed off of it. Murn seems like the badguy, wanting to do a genocide essentially. Just hard to find reasons to be against the butterflies if you're not a human exceptionalist. I don't know how you could watch the scene of them taking over the police station and not come to the conclusion that the butterflies seem to be pretty evil. At least this faction.

They can breathe the air, they can live and fly in 1 G, their high tech society is still functioning (spaceships, they have their own networks apparently connected to our internet, whatever this "cow" is). No one even knew they were there until they started taking over people. Even if you seriously believe they needed the local cops for some reason, the captain would've been enough. Also, what about the people in the jail? Are they all "guilty" too?

Some pretty good stunts in that farm fight.

The “cowardly inexperienced fat back room” character stereotype is still hardcore when the chips are down, even if they’re down to a crawl. Takes No Damage posted:Love how what could have been a one-off jokey reference to the actor not wanting to dye his beard for the movie turned into this season-long character arc with a proper payoff and everything. Yeah that was pretty refreshing overall. Adebayo turned out to be terrible and pretty great at the same time. Very two faced. Economos' monologue was really sad. And then he went back to his underpaid work at what looked like a terrible basement.

jabby posted:Yeah, I mean they stay pretty much true to the movie in that his aim is perfect, and he's an expert in all weapons. It's possible they just mirrored each other, aiming at the same place, because the movie (Waller) presented them as basically the same character. But since Bloodsport came on top at the end I think it's safe to say that the movie established him as the (slightly?) better marksman.

I think Murn was determined to start experiencing human life/culture after he decided to basically commit suicide by starvation. That's what all of the talk about emotions and him watching cartoons was about. The rest of the butterflies we get to see looked down on humanity. Well, except maybe the one in the first episode. Or in other words...Tunicate posted:Perhaps the butterflies would have been successful if - instead of attempting an autocratic takeover and acting as literal parasites upon the working class- they had joined forces with humanity as equals to usher in a dictatorship of the proletariat.

Everyone posted:I think it's more that Murn was seeking validation of his decision. I mean, it's not just suicide. Murn is going to exterminate his entire species through a slow, ugly death by starvation. So he's watching human TV programs with the idea that "These people, this culture really is worth me doing this horrific thing to myself and everyone I ever knew from my homeworld, right?" That was probably part of it. Yeah, obviously it's not just his death that he's been contemplating, but also his entire species'. But seems to me he also saw the expressing of emotions as a good thing, since he was making a point of practicing it. pile of brown posted:The one thing I would have liked to see addressed (and god help me if it was and I missed it) but what was the butterfly life cycle on their planet? They've apparently evolved as intelligent parasites, but also have spacecraft for their nonhosted selves. Were their original hosts intelligent or not? It would be completely insane if they discovered their ability to burrow into a beings brain and access their memories and body and replace the functional brain by happenstance upon reaching earth Everyone posted:Well they apparently flew to Earth in tiny butterfly-sized space ships. So whatever hosts they had on their home world probably couldn't survive on Earth. Who knows, but that cow is probably genetically related to them, since that's the only thing they can eat apparently. It's possible that in their planet it's not at all taboo to take a meat suit for a ride (sentient or not). So if they ever really had a need for hosts, it was probably long before their industrial revolution equivalent.
