Hierolocc: "What? No, just schlicking in the library I'm crashing in on a pile of books to a fantasy of some guy I met the afternoon prior. No biggie."
Did anyone else have nothing but unreasonable hatred for every time flash showed his face? Like nigh homicidal fury?
PinkBallons: @Hierolocc: I wouldn't know; I never watched it and don't plan to. I kinda doubt EQG could cause any feelings other than disappointment and regret.
I was honestly surprised. The fact that I watched it and am still here (as opposed to having died from cranial aneurysm) and haven't written thousands and thousands of words of rage on it, well I guess that means a bit.
It wasn't stellar, it wasn't even "above average" by my perceptions. Perhaps I might liken it to one of the slower paced, clunkier episodes.
It utterly failed to utilize a vastly increased runtime to up the scale and scope, and therefore did not wow or otherwise impress me.
The characters as they were, were mostly bland, as a human high schooler can be expected to be. Some depictions were flanderized downgrades, some made no sense. The villain and her motivations are nothing new. The stakes, developments, and conclusion were in no way set to top earlier events, and for the most part were par the course of what we've seen already.
So in essence it was the opposite of the Magical Mystery Cure. It lacked an awe inspiring feeling of scale that should come from an exploration of alternate dimensions, and could have been condensed considerably, perhaps to a season opener or ender's length.
It wasn't meant to be a conventional episode in my mind, and thus I wont judge it as such. If you're like me, you'll probably survive it just fine, despise the romantic interest, and come out a trifle underwhelmed but no worse for wear.
PinkBallons: @Hierolocc: Well see, that's pretty much exactly how I imagined it would turn out, as it's the direction I've seen the show itself slowly heading towards over time. Add a boring setting and uninteresting new characters to that and what else could you get, really?
Holding out a hope that the film brings in a little cash from the box office, rakes in some cheddar by the toy sales. Maybe get Hasbro to lay off their interference a bit and pony up some more resources for the Studio.
Slim shit for hope, I know. Can't even be sure what the "problem" is. But I hold onto hope.
Whole thing's on youtube if you do decide to chance it. I don't blame ya for having your reservations. Standard appeals to keep a few shreds of hope for season four, but understand your flagging confidence all too well
Vectorman: @Hierolocc: it seemed to me to be more of a season 1 mashup with the grand galloping gala re-visited only with nightmare (sunset) coming then instead of the first 2 eps.

Also, he should have just hit that...For exploration sake, of course.

Just me? Okay.
