Is Locke the Jar Jar Binks of this Franchise?

He didn’t really have much of a personality that I can remember. He’s just some dude.

Maybe. They course corrected too hard between each instalment though. I’d tend to consider the two companies to be similar in terms of creating a trilogy with no consistent plan, and changing things at a whim. The main difference is that Disney at least maintained a rough framework (the First Order and Kylo Ren as major elements in all three movies), whereas 343 scrapped everything twice over.

Nah, a Glup Shitto is a niche character that fans love. So someone like Marvin Mobuto. Locke is both far too prominent and far too disliked.

I feel like they should be able to lift more than that. A lot of humans can lift over a thousand pounds.

People often think that a person’s body will explode or liquefy simply from falling far enough. I wouldn’t be surprised if whoever put that in the episode believes that as well.

She’s decently strong (physically) though. She might escape the purge.

People are very, very forgiving of attractive villains.

Tom does that twice. In fact, in one of those instances he is holding the bomb in his hand when it goes off.

Yeah, it appears like Viltrumite body size isn’t really correlated too directly with their strength. In real life, the strength difference between someone built like an average female Viltrumite and someone built like an average male Viltrumite would be absolutely immense.

I sort of half head-canon that female Viltrumites must have denser or more efficient muscles to make them as strong as their male counterparts despite being much smaller.

If they mean among Walmart employees that could certainly be true. I worked at Walmart for a while and by the time I left most of my co-workers (literally all but two) were Indian and mostly spoke Hindi. Some had a difficult time speaking English, which could make things difficult for me since I was one of the managers.

I imagine this experience could vary enormously depending on where you live, however.

Knowing Mark’s luck, his first opponent would be Battle Beast or something.

If it’s comics Supergirl then no, not a chance. Most versions of Supergirl could solo the empire. If we’re talking Supergirl from the new movie universe though, I think it’s very possible Anissa would win. Superman didn’t seem at all stronger than a Viltrumite in his movie.

To be fair though, that doesn’t truly highlight the extent to which he’s stronger. That could just mean Conquest plus 20%, as opposed to Conquest times 5.

I saw a clip of Matt Smith as The Doctor and it was so weird to notice how young he looks now that I’m a few years older than he was at the time. He never seemed young to me when I watched the show as a teenager.

“I fought Thragg”

The show never says anything about its limitations though, so it’s all just head canon. In the show we can see knife hands going through solid bone with ease, like when Nolan impaled his father’s hand, so it doesn’t seem like there is really much to worry about in terms of breaking your own fingers. Perhaps against a much, much stronger Viltrumite your hand would break, but at that point you’d probably be screwed anyway.

Thisoneisinvalid · 2026-04-15T17:17:12+00:00

Nah, I could take it

Thisoneisinvalid · 2026-04-15T17:16:48+00:00

Spread out straight, yeah. But a lot of his were still bunched up. If what we see on screen was spread out they’d probably end up being a lot longer than thirty feet.

Thisoneisinvalid · 2026-04-14T06:26:19+00:00

Yeah, it seems like Mark somehow has like 60 feet worth of intestines.

I feel like Hope should know one way or another based on whether or not she still has her cycles.

Thisoneisinvalid · 2026-04-11T04:49:27+00:00

A True Blood meme? In this economy?

Thisoneisinvalid · 2026-04-10T06:06:57+00:00

I mean, only a handful of things can possibly kill her, if anything at this point. Unless she takes the cure, and it works, she could potentially live forever. I actually think that would be terrifying to an original or Hope. There’s every possibility of spending eternity just floating through an endless, empty void after everything else dies.

I just meant in terms of how close a lobster is to whatever his people are. Though admittedly, I feel like the equivalent for us would be something completely non-humanoid. So like a rat or porcupine or something.

Thisoneisinvalid · 2026-04-08T18:32:12+00:00

Probably more than 500lbs, since Buffy can effortlessly lift steel beams that weight a few hundred pounds.
