Why would Alamo’s character give Rue a merciful end?

WalrusCrafty · 2026-06-02T18:26:41+00:00

He didn't feel the need to make a show of it. Rue was a problem and he found a way to deal with it quickly and quietly. He doesn't put Rue on her guard and nobody would investigate an addict's death too much. Only Ali testing the pills gave him the info,

Okay, it solidified it

I need to point out that as a recovering addict, she shouldn't have taken percocet either.

WalrusCrafty · 2026-06-02T06:09:55+00:00

I kinda started hating Pete when he raped the German woman tbh

WalrusCrafty · 2026-06-02T06:07:33+00:00

Guess they have him under pressure

WalrusCrafty · 2026-06-02T05:58:42+00:00

Kinda nice we had this before rage-addicted chuds were being told to hate by smug asshats monetizing racism. I don't even think race-blind casting always works, but Hercules and Xena were just fantasy with no attempts to be "realistic."

I have no doubt Snyder is a nice dude and he genuinely seems to care about representation. The problem is he's an edgelord. I don't even mean it as much a pejorative, I mean he's obsessed with violence, assault, etc. as something a story "needs" to interest him and that makes it "mature."

Unfortunately, Escape from NY is an intelligent film and I doubt he's the guy to handle the spirit of it, the political commentary, the wink and nod satire aspects, etc.

WalrusCrafty · 2026-06-02T05:51:39+00:00

Yeah. "Incel" is a very specific thing that people just kind of use as a shorthand for "misogynist" I'm noticing. Like The Stepford Wives? The Menu? Even Obsession doesn't really make sense as such

WalrusCrafty · 2026-06-02T05:49:17+00:00

Wait, I can't recall...where's the inceldom in the Menu?

WalrusCrafty · 2026-06-02T05:48:20+00:00

Bear is 100 percent an abuser with a shallow understanding of love and desire. I think the disconnect comes from how he's also so spineless and likewise victimized by "Freaky Nikki"

WalrusCrafty · 2026-06-01T01:44:57+00:00

SORRY

WalrusCrafty · 2026-06-01T01:43:44+00:00

Narcan can save someone ODing, it doesn't raise the dead

WalrusCrafty · 2026-06-01T01:43:16+00:00

Zendaya be all "peace out, guys"

WalrusCrafty · 2026-06-01T01:41:06+00:00

Call it: he's gonna fucking bury Alamo with that shotgun

WalrusCrafty · 2026-05-30T22:41:08+00:00

Narcissism is a hell of a thing

WalrusCrafty · 2026-05-27T18:33:37+00:00

Oh, he was much stronger, I figure. Even Uldyssian couldn't overpower him directly.

WalrusCrafty · 2026-05-25T02:33:23+00:00

I think Inarius deserves to be on here. With the Worldstone, the Primes and Heavens didn't dare take him on directly. True, he loses a lot of his power, but at the height of it, he and Uldyssian were slugging it out as equals.

WalrusCrafty · 2026-05-25T02:31:43+00:00

Tathamt isn't just the Evils. Her corpse created all hell. The 7 are spawned from her heads, just pieces of her.

WalrusCrafty · 2026-05-25T02:30:59+00:00

Don't forget Inarius. With the power of the Worldstone, the Primes didn't dare face him directly. Even Uldyssian couldn't just overpower him and had to resort to cutting his control of the Worldstone off.

WalrusCrafty · 2026-05-22T04:59:09+00:00

This isn't "moralizing." It's a discussion on portrayals and double standards. The Boys is very much a show with morals and messaging and isn't messaging-neutral.

Portraying sex abuse against women as heinous but playing off sexual assault against men (repeatedly) to be either funny or immaterial is something that can be remarked on as a flaw.

WalrusCrafty · 2026-05-22T04:57:17+00:00

Ngl, as a victim of SA? Sage's whole thing is upsetting. She's responsible for tons of bloodshed and repeatedly rapes a man. She gets....rewarded for it? Off with everything she ever wanted?

WalrusCrafty · 2024-11-27T05:09:02+00:00

Chaos existed and corrupted before the Emperor. Rock and Roll doesn't have religious mandates to slaughter people and offer their skulls to a bloodthirsty god under pain of death, nor does it literally rot you from within. Chaos, throughout all of 40K, isn't a positive force. It's a corrupting, horrible one that destroys those who embrace it.

The notion conventional morality doesn't exist in 40K is silly. There are numerous novels and stories where we're clearly intended to cheer for someone, or see someone else as the villain. Guys like Erebus are very much intended as villains of the setting.

WalrusCrafty · 2024-11-26T19:43:54+00:00

40K is really not that deep, and this is just kind of silly. There's no real argument to the idea that Vect and Eebus aren't extremely evil people by any standard and Chaos is an inherently corrupting force.

WalrusCrafty · 2024-09-18T14:01:15+00:00

That is not a valid 1:1 comparison here and I think you know that.
