Cavi Posted August 12, 2003 Report Posted August 12, 2003 The Beast just totally owns the Ubervamps. Doesn't help that the Ubies turned into one-hit-and-they're-done-for jobbers in the final episode.
Youth N Asia Posted August 12, 2003 Report Posted August 12, 2003 The Beast would have bowled over the Ubervamps. That also bugged me, it took Buffy forever to kill the first one, but the SITS were dusting them left and right in the final with the little training they had.
Mole Posted August 12, 2003 Report Posted August 12, 2003 That didn't bother me too much because they didn't really know how to kill it at first. Then they did all of that training, and knew exactly how to kill them.
Edwin MacPhisto Posted August 12, 2003 Report Posted August 12, 2003 It didn't bother me that much because I could tell it was just the ME team finally getting to do that huge action finale they never really had the budget to do. Seasons 3 and 4 ended with some big fights, but they were both low on numbers and gloss. I was willing to concede a bit of internal logic for the chance to go out with a bang. Still, I would have liked it better had there been, say, a mix of bringers and Ubervamps. The bringers are basically human, so I'd have no problem with the girls roasting and toasting them, with the Ubervamps maybe taking a bit longer. I still don't know why they were so dumb as to go down into the Hellmouth before Willow did the empowerment spell, aside from "it'll be much cooler if there's danger in the face of logic!"
Ripper Posted August 12, 2003 Report Posted August 12, 2003 And the girls weren't really dusting as many as they were kicking their asses. Anya dusting two was a bit of a stretch, but he, she deserved it after what was coming next. And yes, the Beast did rock. I'll go on to say that the fight between the beast, angel, lorne, wesley and Gun was the best damn fight I have seen on either show.
Anakin Flair Posted August 12, 2003 Report Posted August 12, 2003 Check it out: Making The Beast The whole design and make-up process behind the Beast. And this, too. Ho ho ho, motherfuckers: how would you like to see THAT comming soen your chimney
RavishingRickRudo Posted August 12, 2003 Report Posted August 12, 2003 YEAH! Wes and his GUNS! BIATCHES!!! That was a killer sequence. It totally made the Beast into something big time. I mean, you'd think that Wes would like bring out something mystical or some shit like that...oh no... he brings out the guns.
Ripper Posted August 12, 2003 Report Posted August 12, 2003 It was the shotgun from no where that made me mark out HARD. There was litarally no where that gun could have come from. The 2 9's...that scene made me a BIG Wesley mark.
Cavi Posted August 13, 2003 Report Posted August 13, 2003 That scene f'n owned! The dual pistols and then the shotgun...so badass!
Ravenbomb Posted August 13, 2003 Report Posted August 13, 2003 I stopped watching Angel on TV and am just waiting to get the season sets on DVD to watch it, what season is The Beast in?
Ravenbomb Posted August 13, 2003 Report Posted August 13, 2003 bummer, now I've gotta wait a year to see it
Youth N Asia Posted August 13, 2003 Report Posted August 13, 2003 And the season went way downhill when The Beast left
Mole Posted August 14, 2003 Report Posted August 14, 2003 Wes with a shotgun? Now I can't wait for my DVD to come. Passion won the episode tournment.
Youth N Asia Posted August 14, 2003 Report Posted August 14, 2003 Wes with a shotgun? Now I can't wait for my DVD to come. Passion won the episode tournment. What, no final score?
Special K Posted August 14, 2003 Report Posted August 14, 2003 Honestly, we should open a separate Buffy topic for rememberances/ polls/etc. This topic's a bit hard to navigate.
Edwin MacPhisto Posted August 14, 2003 Report Posted August 14, 2003 Nah, that's part of its charm. It's a frickin' juggernaut. We did open separate topics for the end-of-Buffy remembrances and the episode poll, but I think it's cool that everything else is crammed in here. The discussions go all over the place. Oh, and Youth, I took the liberty of doing a final count: Passion had 13 votes, Becoming Pt. II had 3. DAMN YOU, JENNY CALENDAR'S NECK!
Youth N Asia Posted August 14, 2003 Report Posted August 14, 2003 Oh, and Youth, I took the liberty of doing a final count: Passion had 13 votes, Becoming Pt. II had 3. DAMN YOU, JENNY CALENDAR'S NECK! But Jenny's broken neck owned!
Edwin MacPhisto Posted August 14, 2003 Report Posted August 14, 2003 Well, yeah. But 13-3 owned. Poor, poor season finale. We hardly knew ye. Sidenote: I've been watching Season 5 on the syndicated weekend re-runs, and I'm getting antsy for those DVDs. Has anyone seen any updates on what's going to be on them anywhere?
Youth N Asia Posted August 14, 2003 Report Posted August 14, 2003 Season 5 will probably come out December/January...they seem to be set with 6 month releases
Edwin MacPhisto Posted August 14, 2003 Report Posted August 14, 2003 Yeah, I know it's coming out December 9th. I was just hoping somewhere would have some more info on the commentaries, see if they've added anything to the Region 2 sets.
Mole Posted August 15, 2003 Report Posted August 15, 2003 Wes with a shotgun? Now I can't wait for my DVD to come. Passion won the episode tournment. What, no final score? Sorry I was in a rush to post it, work is killing me this week.
Youth N Asia Posted August 15, 2003 Report Posted August 15, 2003 Bah...Cordy was on Kimmel but I forgot about it. Fred (from Angel) was on Tom Green tonight and I happened to catch it. Although some dickhead rap group who was on earlier was still there and doing their best to get all the attention.
Mole Posted August 16, 2003 Report Posted August 16, 2003 I watched the first episode of Angel season 4, and half way through the second episode. So far, so good.
Youth N Asia Posted August 16, 2003 Report Posted August 16, 2003 Warning...it starts better then it ends, show drops off a little over half way through the season
Mole Posted August 16, 2003 Report Posted August 16, 2003 I started watching it when Faith comes back, and I still liked it then.
Mole Posted August 16, 2003 Report Posted August 16, 2003 I was just looking around on the internet, and found the cover to Buffy game on GameCube.
