Where did Demona get her armour suit in "Reckoning?" Did she make it? Did someone else? Did she steal it? Order it from the Sears catalouge? (Help me out here.)
Why was her tail not protected? Was the suit deigned for a human? (I'm guessing not, there was a space she could stick her tail out of.)
What was she stealing from that factory anyway?
She had JUST stolen it from GoldenCup.
Why didn't Thailog clone Angela or Bronx along with the other gargoyles in ''The Reckoning''?
Bronx was never on guard. Demona didn't want Angela cloned and never released a mosquito while she was there.
Dear Greg,
Here are some questions about Future Tense.
1)When did Brooklyn feel the need to don that armor? Obviously it wasn't right after Goliath left.
2)When exactly would you figure Lex would need cybernetic replacements?
3)I know the battle in which Broadway goes blind, but what's the year?
4)When was the Eerie Pyramid constructed?
I understand this was just a dream fabricated by Puck, if you could please answer it hypothetically.
Thanks a bunch
But I'm not a big fan of hypotheticals. You're guess is as good as mine on all this stuff.
A question about Future Tense, a great episode that I recently rewatched. I loved your description of the Gargoyle Wind Ceremony....things like that enhance the depth of the series. But I wondered why no one performed the ceremony on Hudson's remains.
Obviously, it could have been a screw up on Puck's part, like not knowing that Demona had chosen Thailog as her mate. Then again, he seemed to know a lot about everything and everyone else. If Puck knew about the ceremony, did he think that the trio wouldn't or didn't know how to perform the ceremony? Or had you simply not developed the concept of the wind ceremony when the episode was produced (I realize that the dramatic element of Goliath's learning that his mentor is dead would have been reduced if there had been no remains). Anyway, just wondering.
There were no remains. I'm not sure what you're talking about. Whether or not Puck knew about the Wind Ceremony (and I most certainly did back then) is immaterial, because in the reality that Puck presented to Goliath, Hudson had died years earlier. Goliath would have expected (had he thought about it) that the ceremony took place at the time of Hudson's death.
Perhaps you think that statue of Hudson WAS Hudson. But it was only a bronze statue. Metal -- not stone or sleeping Gargoyle. Specifically Bronze to make sure the audience didn't get confused.
Did Oberon remember to take Boudicca back to Avalon in "The Gathering"?
Yes.
If all the Gargoyles have to do to defeat Oberon is ring a bell, then why didn't they simply do so during the Gathering. And why didn't Puck know that was his weakness.
My guess is that (a) forging an iron bell is a bit harder than you think. And (b) Puck can't handle that bell or whip one up magically. And (c) I wouldn't be surprised if Oberon has a contingency for that now.
A question about "Ill Met By Moonlight". At the end of this episode, Oberon appoints the Avalon clan his "honor guard". Is this going to turn out to be a largely ceremonial function with little real work? I can't help but suspect this, in view of the fact that anything capable of seriously threatening Oberon, a fellow capable of swelling up to giant size, animating stone figures, and ordering the earth to swallow up intruders, (and I will confess that the only thing that I can think of in the Gargoyles Universe that could really endanger him at present is Queen Mab) would be able to easily wipe out a whole clan of gargoyles without much effort. (I do have the suspicion that Oberon's appointing the gargoyles to that position was more a matter of "practical politics" - giving them a definite role in Avalonian society - than a matter of "providing for defense", myself).
Generally, an "honor guard" is by definition ceremonial. If not literal definition, then certainly by common practice.
So I agree. But it doesn't hurt to have loyal warriors handy the next time someone shows up with an iron bell.
In High Noon when Desdemona splits her self in three and says, "Even shadows must be true to thier shade". Her three images have the same different hair as the Wierd Sisters. Coincidence, I think not.
I think not too.
I was watching my tape of "Cloud Fathers" and wondered over one line in it. In the "Arizona - 1960" flashback scene, Carlos Maza protests his son's decision to leave his people to live with the "Waseshu". Who are the "Waseshu"? (I assume that it's a name for the people of Manhattan, given the context, but want to make certain).
It's a perjorative term for caucasians. Or so I was told.
Hello, Greg!
About the episode future Tense
when Goliath "kills" Xanatos' perso, shouldn't it have killed Lexington by feedback (like it killed Alexander, Brooklyn, Angela and Demona?
Was it a glitch in Puck's illusion, or the Xanatos persona was a mere artificial intelligence?
((Next time, before Puck create a cyberpunkish illusion, he would gain to read William Gibson's Neuromancer ;p))
Why would it have killed Lex? He wasn't hooked into Xanatos. He simply manipulated the program.
