Just finished watching The Umbrella Academy. It was one of the shows I had saved on My Watch List since it came out and I decided to finally start watching it last week. I finished the show today and I’m kinda disappointed with it. I love the show. It definitely is amazing. Robert Sheehan is an amazing actor and I’ve been a fan of his since Misfits. Ellen Page was amazing in this as well and I loved her character, but I didn’t like how her character ended.
With stories like this, they always wanna portray a good, positive ending and while that may be good for some people, I kinda hate it. When I got to the last episode, I was really hype for Vanya to get her revenge and yet, she didn’t get it. That made me mad. I was heartbroken for her. After suffering her entire life, she finally finds out that she has a power and also a power that is stronger than her siblings. It just seems wrong that all her other siblings in a way was able to get their revenge, but not Vanya.
This show reminded me of the movie Chronicle. At least in the movie, the guy was able to get his revenge for a few minutes before he was killed. I felt like Vanya was never even loved by her other siblings. Only 1 of them didn’t want to kill her, while the rest of them were right on board with trying to kill her.
All I know is that in the second season, her siblings better not try to hide Vanya’s powers from her.
No marriage required.
Season 3 Catra was so good but so bad and I don't know how to deal.
She truly lost it and went off the edge. I once thought she can be saved, redeemed, but after this season I think I should admit defeat. Catra never blames herself, she only blames Adora for her mistakes
That's an unhealthy relationship, most toxic I have ever seen in a kid TV show except for RWBY with Adam and Blake. I don't want Catra to be evil, but I think it's an option that we must consider
I’m not sure whether I should laugh or cry.
Is OP aware that oh so many books exist on this subject?
And that almost universally the ones authored by people with doctorates in classicism and mythology disagree with OP?
Including the… epic hymn that first told this story? You know what’s in that original source material… right?
Abducted, yes. Demeter mourned? Definitely. Rape, no.
So here’s some info on Ancient Greek wedding traditions which (oh my stars and garters!!) included abducting the bride. With the father’s permission, which Hades got before he took her away.
Here’s a whole book on the subject of Ancient Greek wedding custom and its conflation with funeral rites. (Which sounds a bit like Hades and Persephone to anyone who’s ever dabbled in things like explication and context)
Here’s a link to another book that talks about Persephone’s rise to power as a result of her willingly eating the pomegranate seeds.
Oh shit!!
Here’s a whole bunch of myths and hymns that talk about her Queen of the Underworld badassery!!
Holy pug tacos Batman!!
Here’s another book about the myth focusing on the seasonal religious and liminal rites. WHICH TAKE PLACE IN THE DRY SUMMER (not the fucking winter), which you know if you read a book.Way to go, OP!
All these fucking books! What could anyone possibly do with them all?!?!?!?! Do you eat books to absorb their powers instead of read them?
A better guess would be that you got into a moral panic over the name of a certain Renaissance statue and maybe after reading three pages of Edith Hamilton or the first paragraph of a Wikipedia article. And then used that to castigate and demean not only the people who actually take their limited time to create gorgeous art but also to denigrate modern day worshippers of Persephone and Hades?
Maybe next time, you stringy piece of over-boiled okra, you might want to take your own advice and pick up a book, instead of reducing the feared and respected Queen of the Underworld who held power equal to or in many interpretations GREATER than her husband into a meaningless pastiche of female disenfranchisement that you seemingly plucked from your own ass.
if you’re having a bad day, here’s a cute little marching band
