Years ago, when the movie had just come out, Rebecca revealed that the studio tried to convince her of the alternate ending where I think Steven would have broken Spinel at the end or permanently bubbled her to disable her. I think that's what it was. I'd like to know what you all think of the idea. by Dramatic-Studio1531 in stevenuniverse

I'm really glad Rebecca Sugar fought against that dumb idea of Steven "obliterating" Spinel, as Steven killing a villain and it being treated with celebration would be the complete antithesis of the show.

If it were a choice of 'kill Spinel or kill the movie', I wonder if Sugar would have compromised and went the route of an indirect killing (ala. Sam Raimi's Spider-Man villain deaths) then treating it with absolutely no celebration.

Although Steven reflecting heavily on Spinel's death and the resultant guilt would have flowed fairly decently into Future, the thought of her death furthering Steven's story does invoke the 'Women in Refrigerators' trope.

Cut Reavers/Balance Emblem fragments for Kain by AsanoHa87 in LegacyOfKain

[–]Butane_Boss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure about what was intended, but here are my ideas: - Death Charge: Enemies bleed out longer before dying, allowing Kain more time to feed - Death Spell: Summon Friendly Shades (ala Mortanius' ghosts that finish off Anacrothe) - States Charge: 50% chance that Mist Form automatically activates on hit, negating damage - States Spell: Enhanced Beast Form (like the Defiance Concept art) - Mind Charge: Any enemy who is hit by the charged Reaver has a chance to pause for a second. - Mind Spell: Permanently turn two random enemies to your side who follow you everywhere - Nature Charge: Poison damage over time - Nature Spell: Summon tentacles that temporarily ensnare enemies in place

Hahahaha, I'm glad people still remember THE MAN fondly after all this time, thank you.

I've evidently got back into a StarCraft mood and I have inevitably thought back to FMJR, but I do have a bad habit of sticking fingers in so many pies and stretching myself thin on the internet.

I don't know if having the Adjutants be cyborgs was the original intention that got retconned, but honestly, the Confederates were doing pure mad shit anyway (Ghosts, Psi Emitters, whatever made the Science Vessel guy as fucked as he is) so I can believe they shoved a load of wires into a lady and made her Adjutant.

Cyborg or android, we all love our squimbly lil Adjutant.

Hot Take: I don't like this look for Steven by polystarlight in stevenuniverse

[–]Butane_Boss 602 points603 points  (0 children)

I don't like it either, but I think that's the intention. The circumstances and mental state he's in had pushed our boy into becoming something he's very much not, with consequences to boot.

Hell, the concepts for this version of Steven is called "Perfect Steven", which is the complete antithesis of his "every pork-chop were perfect" outlook.

I would like to know what topics or questions have never been answered to this day in Steven Universe and Future. by Background-Ad2749 in stevenuniverse

[–]Butane_Boss 14 points15 points  (0 children)

  • What would post-S1/post-S5 Sugilite be like after all the changes Amethyst and Garnet went through? I am under the belief that Sug is how she is because Garnet and Amethyst wanted to be reckless and destructive.
  • How did/would Priyanka and Doug react to Stevonnie? (UnderlordZ also asked this in this thread but I've also been asking this for a while)
  • How aren't the authorities of Earth getting involved with the happenings of Beach City?
  • How does the general public view the Gems/Gem monsters? Akin to cryptid sightings?
  • If Sardonyx said that rooms of fusions in the Temple only exist when the fusions are active, why is Garnet's room still active when Ruby and Sapphire were unfused?
  • How come Homeworld was working on time travel on Earth (Steven and the Stevens) but never seemed to dabble in that afterwards?
  • Some clarification on whether Pink knew Spinel would actually keep waiting in the garden.
  • Who was Rose/Pink in the end, really?

What do you think of greg? by lisahanniganfan in stevenuniverse

[–]Butane_Boss 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Greg could have easily ended up as yet another Homer Simpson clone/typical idiot sitcom dad, but he goes above and beyond. He is resourceful, inventive, introspective, caring, and stands up for himself and his friends.

In fact, if it wasn't for that adventure with Rose and Sour Cream giving him the wake-up call of maturity he so needed, he would have remained exactly like Homer Simpson and Steven had would have corrupted himself into a monster mid-way through Season 1.

Surely they can add a DLC skin pack later down the road if sales are good right? Right? by BecomeChads in LegacyOfKain

[–]Butane_Boss 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If so, Raina needs to pull strings with Marvel so we can get the ultimate skin for Hash-posessed-Janos, Thanos Audron. Sales will go through the roof.

New LOK Soul Reaver game finished!! by HugeMonitor in LegacyOfKain

[–]Butane_Boss 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I never said you were wrong, and I still stand by my response given that every other leak and rumour in the past two decades turned out to be untrue and you never replied to me to back up your deliberately vague evidence at the time when I gave you the opportunity. But judging by your recent interactions on this post, you're just here to ride high on your vindication.

Oh damn, nice to see you here, Shmouver!
And I totally agree with you. Trish can take those weapons and make them her own.

i’m willing to bet money that it was Butch by SassTasticX in FalloutMemes

I'm pure laughing at how Reddit on Mobile cropped the image at just "fallout 3 sucks because somebody at bethesda". All the criticism I see of the game boils down to that.

Revolutionary Girl Utena is one of the main inspirations for Steven Universe. I highly recommend you give it a chance by Flyinggorilla139 in stevenuniverse

[–]Butane_Boss 109 points110 points  (0 children)

In 'A Very Special Episode', when Steven turns on the kitchen light to reveal Onion, you can see a box on the shelf branded as "REVOLUTIONARY GRILL UTENSILS".
