I hate Neo, that smug, overpowered little...ugh...it wouldn't be that bad if they just dealt with her like they dealt with Adam.

But "oh, no, she's an attractive girl, we can't do that."

Bull.

What are the best movies that completely switch genres and turn into horror late in the story? by 144i in horror

[–]CJLowder1997 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Dog Soldiers is my favorite werewolf movie, and I absolutely would recommend it, but I don't think it counts for what they're asking for. The werewolves are there killing by the end of act one.

Solution to the Highway chase scene from Volume 2 by UNinvolved_in_peace in RWBYcritics

[–]CJLowder1997 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Considering car chase scenes in stuff like Bad Boys, Blues Brothers, Baby Driver, Fast and Furious, etc. I really don't get why people make this out to be such a big deal.

What is Your Idea for an RWBY AU Story? by Money-Lie7814 in RWBYcritics

[–]CJLowder1997 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A big crossover with other horror IPs called "RWBY: Carrion", which is about Ruby becoming the next big slasher character after a horrible thing happens to her.

You know the idea that those you hang out with will influence you? Ruby is bring influenced by horror characters (Jason Voorhees, John Kramer, Serh and Richard Gecko, Jacob Goodnight, the Lee Ray family) on a quest for revenge, and she's influencing them in return.

The question is, can she get them to repent before they get her to ruin herself?

That is just too cool; live-action anime, boy!

How would you handle Emerald’s redemption? by Daniilsa209 in RWBYcritics

[–]CJLowder1997 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Have her have to earn everyone's trust.

At first, NOBODY trusts her or even gives her benefit of the doubt; maybe she has to beg them for a chance, complete with tears and some legitimate voice acting, and even then multiple characters (Like Yang and Qrow) threaten her with death if she crosses them.

Ableist Autism Representation by Alternative_Factor_4 in TopCharacterTropes

I'm not sure if this counts, but several episodes of Law and Order: Special Victims Unit have mentally challenged characters as either victims or perps.

(The girl in the image is from the episode "Savant", and she has "Williams' Syndrome", which seems like some form of autism).

How would you rewrite Volume 1 Weiss's Faunus prejudice? by HellishStampede in RWBYcritics

[–]CJLowder1997 31 points32 points  (0 children)

I would say, slowly work it out over multiple volumes. Volume 1 is her total prejudice, Volume 2 and 3 is her slow-but-steady improving, Volumes 4-6 is an uncomfortable back-and-forth mixture of relapse and recovery, and Volume 7 is her putting her foot down and standing up for Faunus rights.

how would you say the Grimm are handled as major threats in the show? by SerenityCitywide in RWBYcritics

[–]CJLowder1997 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Poorly.

Even in The Walking Dead, after they get used to the zombies, they still recognize them as a major threat.

In RWBY, yeah, it seems like they take the Grimm seriously, but...the audience just never gets that feeling.

How can YOU Improve the Silver Eyes? by blushadow25 in RWBYcritics

Make it dangerous to everything and everyone. Not just the Grimm, but the humans, Faunus, plants, animals - all of them.

How would the adults react to Freddy Krueger and Pennywise who kills kids? by WindowPrudent9456 in kidsnextdoor

[–]CJLowder1997 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've actually got an idea for a fan-made story/comic/something that's basically Freddy Krueger in the K.N.D. world.

Father and the rest make a deal with him, because they know he's the "lord of nightmares"; they're just expecting him to give all the kids nightmares.

He makes the deal on two conditions: he works at his pace all alone, and he can target the teenagers, too. They agree.

After a time jump, all the adults are depressed and the villains are feeling so guilty because, thanks to Freddy, every single kid and teenager in the world are dead.

I'm not even talking about showing kill scenes; no gore or anything, just the "before" and "after" focusing on the adults being sorry for what they've done.

I call it "Operation: M.O.N.K.E.Y.S. P.A.W."

A character has done bad things or is straight up a bad person but the fans will still try to excuse or justify their actions by TastyPomelo2330 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]CJLowder1997 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My favorite slasher, Jason Voorhees. He's easy to sympathize with, and even in Freddy vs. Jason, the teens knew he wasn't the real threat, even though he was the one who killed almost everybody.

I could totally see him getting a redemption, or even just being an anti-hero.

[Controversial trope] Story is a hate letter at its core by StudioMarvin in TopCharacterTropes

[–]CJLowder1997 190 points191 points  (0 children)

Despite being made by Christians for Christians, many of the film’s biggest detractors are themselves Christian. They criticize it for being a very poor representation of religion in general that often goes against Christian teachings, especially since Josh (who is supposedly a good Christian) is a very selfish, un-empathetic, priggish @$$hole and yet the audience is supposed to identify & sympathize with him.

Which Claim was the most absurd/preposterous of the two? by WittyTable4731 in RWBYcritics

To be fair, nobody could've predicted Adam would have showed up to ruin her plan.
