When this first started, there was at least some tension, but now, it's pointless. Everything is such a foregone conclusion that it's just boring. If the mimics took casualties and were forced to retreat a few times, great. Or perhaps all but one get wiped out, then a version of the 1982 movie The Thing could play out. It would be more dynamic and engaging storytelling. As it is now, it's a waste. This commander lady especially is wasted.
Would have been interesting if the top ranking soldiers were actually competent enough to recognize mimics and stop them at the gate. May have even been funny if their reaction to seeing the entire party wiped out was just complete and utter annoyance that they would have to clean up this mess now.
But I suppose this was never about compelling storytelling, just pure fetishization.
Well, this gave me a kind of existential dread I could have done with never experiencing Like what if my genuinely amazing fiancée is totally fake and just a dream? Crying tonight, for sure
On one hand the Euphoria t-shirt seems like quite a bold fashion statement. But on the other hand I doubt many people are familiar with that game. So it's a red flag aimed at nerds? But that would only ward off the less degenerate ones. Maybe the joke is that she's a fake weeb. Or maybe I'm overthinking this.
... having never seen the Broly movies, does Paragus really scream like Speaki at any point?
Having only watched the English dub, no he does not, but it would be really fucking funny if Dameon Clarke did a Speaki impression while he was being crushed in a space pod.
When played in reverse, both the scene where Speaki screams and cries in the Korean version of *Tickcal* and the scene where Paragus laughs uproariously in the Japanese version of *Dragon Ball Z: Broly – The Legendary Super Saiyan* sound to Japanese ears as if the characters are saying "Āu."
