User blog:JERealize/Progress Bar: Issue 037

(December 8, 2013)

Okay, I watched the finale, and you know what? I agree with everyone else here. It... blows. And you know what? I have half a mind to create a reimaging of the final episode. You know, to fix it up a bit. I have a few ideas (like fixing up what happens during the challenge, and definitely reveal where the ballooned contestants landed, which may lead me to reveal where the Hurl/Flush of Shame led).

Anyways, I found a cool quote to describe Mike after he destroyed his other personalities:

"One by one Man fused with AC, each physical body losing its mental identity in a manner that was somehow not a loss but a gain."

- The Last Question (Issac Asimov short story)

Also, I'm restarting a story on the THG Wiki soon. The first chapter will be out by New Years' Day, 2014. As for this wiki, I'm still thinking. I'm the one to come up with ideas with outlines and concepts, but not to flesh them out, although I can try.

But, back to the review of Episode 13 of TDAS. There were a few points where I wanted to stop watching and go back to sleep, and even a part where I was so tense that I wanted someone in the show to be killed. (True story.) This finale was all over the place (not to mention that Chris's newest stipulation ripped off the new rule from The Hunger Games in which two members of the same dictrict could be recognized as winners. Also, still no official news on the lost contestants, no mention of Izzy whatsoever, nothing really truly game-changing (besides the reset button, which was already predicted by Cameron and Zoey a few episodes before) in this mess. Also, I've heard of boring machines, but never fracking machines. (Fracking machines create fissures, and sometimes the surrpounding property could sink a few feet,  but I don't buy this "sinking island" bullpipe.)

In unrelated news, Harvard tells me that cow's milk is unhealthy for humans. Don't know what to say about that. Oh, well. I'm not much of a milk lover, but anyways, I'll post another Progress Bar later. And Rhonda, can't wait for the newsletter.

The eight haven't fallen. They're just... I don't know where they are, in all honesty. (Talk | Blogs | Contributions) 06:53, December 9, 2013 (UTC)
