What I want to know is: why is your MAL signature working and mine isn't? DX *kicks MAL* They've been crashing and rebooting and fixing things all day...
Just rewatched the very last scene, and wow, there's a major continuity error present. In the cut when Juliet spots the bomb, the blood she's been coughing up completely disappears from her face, only to reappear in the very next shot. I didn't notice it the first two times (yes, this is the third time I watched it, haha) because the acting and the situation are both just so intense. Not relevant to the story at all, but I'm surprised they made a mistake obvious enough for the likes of me to pick up on it, if only upon close examination.
ETA: Oh, and then when she actually starts hitting the bomb, the blood disappears again. Two different takes spliced together, I guess.

I guess I could understand it from that angle, but I still don't think it was written particularly well. The whole "flashback, then Juliet uses that same rationale" thing just bugs me. It's really contrived.

That actually is the cruelest cliffhanger ever. No contest.
Juliet's rationale didn't bother me too much--I guess I read it as more along the lines of generally being fed up with loss and pain (with Kate being just one potential example along those lines). What did kind of get to me was how Kate went from waving a gun at Jack to caressing his wounds and affirming his decision with zero explanation, although I suppose this is more of the same, coming from her.

I never read these posts, to be perfectly honest (hey, I don't watch Lost, stgo), but the first two words of your post made me giggle. Even if it was naughty language.

Ah well. I can't blame you for rolling through the whole season so quickly. *beats his connection into a bloody pulp*
What did you think of the finale?
Love thy Evangelion.

Shiiiiiiiiiin. I watched it. ;________;
We have things to discuss.
Edit: I also noticed the blood disappearing on Juliet. I was surprised at how that was overlooked. > >;;

This is a really interesting article regarding the season finale. I want to go through this guy's backlog and read all his thoughts throughout the season now, haha.

Naughty language is the second-most giggleworthy language (the first being language that sounds naughty but really isn't).
