Highly Belated Review of 3x13

Jul 05, 2009 16:20


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 ( Read more... )

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*

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.

I also liked the way it all took place at night too - representative of the darkness surrounding Allan’s death?

Oh yes, I like that interpretation. *sniff*

I was a little disappointed he didn’t a little more screentime, and interaction with the gang

I wonder if perhaps this increased responsibility is building for a greater role in series four (Edit: apparently not. Pfft. Feckers.)

:( But on the plus side, I'm thinking of a 'write your own season 4' competition ;)
Yes, me too! He usually gets so many good lines, but he was really limited here. Should have been more about Guy turning away from him to, after he'd said he was like a son and all...

The plan to save her was pretty good though, even if I was a little disappointed it succeeded. I was also rather hoping, before it was revealed that she was the prisoner, that Robin might accidently shoot her!

*rofl* Yes, quite! At least Much got to be the hero though :)
Sadly once again I don’t have a lot for dear Big Bear again, although wasn’t it a sweet little moment between him and ( ... )

YAAAAAYYYYYY on write your own season four!! I was hoping someeone would do that.. I'll have to get some ideas sorted!
Yeah, more of him and Guy would've been good...just like more of Guy and Allan would've been good! *lip wobble*
I also see it as a reference to the bit with Allan and Will teaming up again in 2x11 (Walkabout) yeah! I love that episode, with the two of them... speakin of Will actually, I watched Much's little speech to Robin in 2x12 last night (♥), the look on Will's face is so sweet and beautuiful! I never really noticed it before I think, with the Muchness and all, but I might do a fic... as if I don't have enouegehe eideas already *rolls eyes ( ... )

*wails hopelessly* I want to see them together again! I want Guy to have more Allan wet dreams! I want to see Allan sucking up to Guy (ahem) and wearing black a lot! Oh well, this is all still happening in my head ;)

*frowns* box set? Already?

It came out on 29th while you were away :) I bought it that day, of course!
