in "the cage" when the trio returned from a concert in the park what concert was it? i heard it was the "smashing pumpkins".
Who might it have been in late 1995?
In the episode "Walkabout," there's a little nameplate we see on a computerized arm. On it, it says "Waldo." Is there anything significant we should know about this?
"Waldo" is the jargon term for those kind of computerized arms. We didn't make it up.
Random thoughts about Vows:
I think it was around this episode that I decided I really loved the series. Or perhaps it was "The Mirror". One way or another this ep solidified the feeling...
There's an interesting thing about the greek dubbing. When the series was first shown in all the episodes the word "Illuminati" was spoken translated with the (archaic) Greek "Pefotismenoi"-"Enlightened Ones".
This created a very nice subtlety when the Norman ambassador greets Xanatos. He didn't say the obvious "a fellow Illuminatus" (in fact I was quite surprised -and disappointed- when I learned that's what was spoken in the original ep). He said "an Enlightened comrade." I really, *really* loved that line. Both the viewers and Xanatos knew what he was referring to. But the bystanders would get no special meaning by this, other than that the ambassador was praising Xanatos...
Something more about the translation was that it was strangely constructed in the speeches of the 10th century humans- adjectives after the nouns, a rhythm in their speech: Almost as if they were speaking poetry. Probably meant to make a distinction between their speech and the modern-day one... Was there anything analogous in the original?
<<Was anyone expecting Fox and X to really get married? And once they were, did you think you'd see them have a kid by season's end?>>
Once they'd gotten engaged, I did expect them to get married - but the child certainly stunned me. I think my mouth was hanging open at the end of "Outfoxed".
And I certainly didn't expect how that arc would go - that it'd cause Xanatos's redemption. What I had thought immediately after Outfoxed was "Poor kid! He's going to be experimented upon.". I knew that Xanatos had feelings for Fox, but I didn't know that he'd also have feelings for his son...
That is a nice line in translation.
As for the speeches, we tried to give them a more classical tone, but we weren't doing iambic pentameter or anything.
I was just wondering, if a gargoyles died in battle would they turn to stone, or stay in their flesh form? Because I belive that in "Future Tense" it showed Hudson in stone and he was said to dead, or was that just some type of a memorial? Just wondering....
That was a BRONZE memorial. Not stone. Metal. Not him. A statue.
When a garg dies, he or she stays in whatever form he or she was in when he or she died. Presumably, any garg that died in battle was flesh when he or she died. Thus they'd stay flesh.
I read through as much as I could before my eyes started burning out the back of my head. @.@;; hoi. So if this question was already asked, ignore it.
Demona in Vows.
1. Where did she go the second time with the gate? (after she brought everyone to the past, and when she lost Goliath)
2. Did she do something of importance?
3. She hit a Mc Donalds and have a burger and relax from the headache of Goliath and Xanatos and ponder leaving them there?
4. Would we have seen that much like how we would've eventually seen the Archmage and Goliath in Timedancer?
1. Just answered this a couple of questions back.
2. See above.
3. Probably not, no.
4. Possibly, but not in my current plans.
Concerning 'Vows' (again), when Demona takes Golaith, Petros Xanatos, herself and the newly-weds to 975 she travels somewhere using the Phoenix Gate by herself. Goliath chases her but is too late. Where did she go or rather when did she go? Did she go straight to Castle Wyvern to inform her younger self about the humans or did she go some where else.
By the way I loved Vows. It was probably one of my favourite episodes followed by 'Future Tense' and 'The Mirror'. I would have loved to have seen more gargoyles in 975, but the show was pretty packed already anyway.
I liked Vows too. I was proud of that plot.
I'm pretty sure that Demona went straight to her next appearance in that episode. But I won't be held to that if I think of a brilliant detour at some later date.
1a) What had Sevarius actually concocted at the end of "The Cage"? b) What would have happened to Maggie had she drunk it?
I like the ambiguity, so I'm not going to answer.
why is that in "the price" hudson says Macbeth is dead and later says macbeth is immortal?
I'm not sure I remember the details precisely, or if you've got them right.
But it Depends how you define immortal.
If you define immortal to mean you're still alive even after centuries, that doesn't necessarily mean you cannot be killed.
Look at Highlander. All them immortals. But all killable.
if a gargoyle remains very still does he/she appear to be a stone gargoyle? in thrill of the hunt goliath did something like this on that rooftop covered in gargs
Depends on the lighting, I guess.
Concerning "Future Tense"
Towards the end of the episode, Lexington says,
"...I kept his memory alive so I could run the show unmolested."
1) Did you or anyone else get into trouble over the use of the word 'molested'? (I know I reacted to it when I was younger)
2) Did anyone object to the higher-than-normal level of violence in the episode? (personally, I loved it)
1. You must have had a dirty mind. Though the word has sexual connotations in certain contexts, there's nothing in its denotation that suggests what I assume you're suggesting. So, no. No one got in trouble.
2. It didn't have a higher than normal volume level. We had a max volume that we approached in every episode. This may have stayed closer to our max for longer periods due to the heavy action/explosion content of the story. But it's not like the whole thing was played at a higher volume.
