Highly Belated Review of 3x13

[shaman_whore]

I know, it's been over a week, but I've been on holiday, and I thought as I'd written a review while en france I might as well post it! Will quickly say that it was written over a few days and obviously as time went on and I'd only watched it once (no internets, gah!) I did forget some details and whatnot, and beg your forgiveness. I also didn't

Marian! Aww I was so hoping he’d see her, and that he’d die with her and not Kate :D Did rather like Marian’s dress, very Lothlorian-y to me, and ‘the greatest adventure is yet to come’

Yes wasn't it brilliant that she was there? She looked so stunning and whilst i was in flood of tears at this point, I was also kinda smiling cause at least they were together again.

Nice review. It's funny cause I was gonna write one but I've not been able to bring myself to watch the episode again. It feels too raw and emotional still.

Yeah, I've only been able to watch it the once, too. I was surprised that I got to write as much about it as I did in my own journal.

Good review!! The Much moments were so wonderful throughout the episode; I was THRILLED to see the responsibility and respect Robin gave him, and the way he handled the fight. Their farewell was TOO hearbreaking...

*getting sniffly again just thinking about it*

[dcwash]

I was thrilled with that, too, but I also liked the way it showed Robin thinking with his head instead of with his heart or some other body part. Robin was right in that Much should be in charge of the castle because he had the most experience with these things and Robin could trust him most. He was also right in that Much was too likely to fly off the handle if he went on their secret tunnel mission (tunnel? I think? can't remember...) with them. My only concern was that Much would hear the "you can't go with us" part and not hear the "you're the best man for the job of holding the castle" part.

[railise]

All good points! :)

[shaman_whore]

or some other body part. *snort* very true! Think perhaps it showed Robin in his element, as a leader with a real and definate purpose, as opposed to a vauge sort of dream about eventually winning out over the sheriff/john and generally helping out the poor... he was truely in command, and knew exactly what to do. And who was of the most worth to him :)

[shaman_whore]

thank you! It was wonderfully Much-y wasn't it? Good to see Robin finally treating him right....

[railise]

And good to see the writers treating him right, which hasn't happened much in S3. :P

[shaman_whore]

exactly! (haha I said that aloud when I read your comment and reminded myself of Bedevere in Monty Python's Holy Grail...if you've seen it... ignore this, if not!)

[railise]

I <3 Monty Python! :)

(And am one of those able to quote Holy Grail... :D)

[shaman_whore]

yay! As am I. When I was writing my fic of bringing Allan back I kept thinking of 'its jut a flesh wound!' and of Concorde 'no I'm fine to come with you actually..' 'Farewell, sweet Concorde!' 'Oh. I'll just... stay here then, shall I? Yeah...'.
Anyway, will stop there or I'll be quoting it at you all night!

[railise]

lol! Yeah, I'm not even going to start. XD That, The Princess Bride, and Men in Tights are all films that are best not watched in my presence (unless one enjoys hearing me recite them).

I try not to, I really do!! I think it's a compulsion. ;D
(and I'm starting to do it with the show, too...)

[shaman_whore]

haha aww bless you and your floods of tears. I think RH has been emotionally stunting me or someeething, I didn't cry at this week's eeitheer. It was nice to have the two of them together again :)
