so uh wait, you mean after all that, Descartes winds up just being the requisite Guy With a Spiffy Prototype Who Dies?

so to summarise, setsuna is briefly awesome in a flag, descartes was little more than a cocktease, as was the raphael gundam, andrei and tieria are sacrifical ensigns, as is graham, setsuna's attempt to contact the vajra/borg/t-1000 aliens puts him in a coma with him emerging just in time to pilot the 00 qan[t] to go out an establish first contact again and be successful (i called it), patrick does his usual thing, feldt engages in some more shiptease with setsuna but nothing comes of it, and everybody else is just in the background with none of any remaining minor subplots being resolved in favour of showing explosion and a huge battle with liquid metal vajra.
is it just me or are writers/directors becomming more troll-ish of late?
As I mentioned, my only interest in the movie is whether Soma finally gets to do something cool, and if the answer is "no", then I'm not going to bother seeing it. I'll just put 00 behind me and hope that I like the next Gundam series more.Chris wrote:I'm just posting this as a general reminder for everyone, though I suspect it will fall on deaf ears. A lot of us won't be seeing this movie anytime soon. Can we save our disappointment until then, rather than just being pre-disappointed by some spoilers mentioned by other people?
Good call/reminder, Chris & Areku.Areku wrote:Relax, Vent. He isn't calling any one person out on it. It's just a general request/suggestion, and one which I happen to second.
People (again, in general) should at least hold their kneejerk reactions long enough for them to no longer be kneejerk reactions, because such reactions (both positive and negative) just precondition everyone else to be either disappointed or irritated.

If I'm not mistaken, the director just said that the fates of some characters were changed and that more people would have died if the movie did not go through. What happens in the movie generally does not fit into S2 much though it fits perfectly as the 2 hour movie followup. Especially considering what Tiera said in S2 about the dialogues to come with the unity and migration of humanity and the eventual meeting of some alien civilisation being one of the ultimate goals of the Plan.LightningCount wrote:Also, with all this ELS stuff, I have to wonder how the "flow" of Season 2 was altered in terms of plot and characters like Graham, and how they would have fit into Season 2's flow, since I think the director said some of this stuff used to be in Season 2 prior to getting a movie deal.
