Saw Your Brief Comment About B&C And I Agree With You, The Writing Wasn't It. The Sounds Were Awful But

Saw your brief comment about B&C and I agree with you, the writing wasn't it. The sounds were awful but them alone didn't really move me. I get Helaena's reactions aren't what's considered usual in general but Phia is amazing and deserved something better from the writers.

I will say the same thing I just said in another ask—the writers chose the cheap sounds of gore instead of the gut-wrenching bartering and the horrifying choice Helaena makes in the book.

She chooses Maelor over Jaehaerys because as a mother she thinks it's the merciful choice, as he is a baby and doesn't understand what is happening.

She makes that choice after offering herself, pleading they kill her instead, and under the threat that they will assault her daughter if she doesn't choose.

I understand they might have wanted to portray shock, but it is badly done. Again, I'm talking purely about the way the scene and the characters are written. Phia Saban did an amazing job with what she was given.

You're impossibly fast. And strong. Your skin is… pale white, and ice cold. Your eyes change color… and sometimes you speak like - like you're from a different time. You never eat or drink anything; you don't go into the sunlight. How old are you? Seventeen. How long have you been seventeen? …a while. I know what you are. Say it… out loud. Say it. Vampire.

“He Built Up This Totem Of Cassian, This Kind Of Voodoo Doll, And The Fact That He Wasn’t Even A

“He built up this totem of Cassian, this kind of voodoo doll, and the fact that he wasn’t even a blip on Cassian’s radar is crushing to him. He’s so desperate to be remembered and to make a difference, and it’s a cut too deep by that point. He’s been betrayed by Dedra and the Empire, and now his one true obsession doesn’t even think he’s worth remembering. He’s heartbroken.” - Kyle Soller

I started Andor expecting everyone was going to die. And that was ok, because they took the main point of contention for this show - who cares about a prequel for a character who died in Rogue One? - and turned it on its head. They wield the symbolism like a sword. The main soundtrack is a funeral march. A dead woman speaks from the grave and wishes she'd fought before the end. Everyone here is already dead, fighting for a future they'll never see.

But Bix? Bix is going to live. And somehow that's worse.

She's going to live. She's going to make it home to Ferrix. This show will end with her laying bricks for them all.
