Behind the scenes of Rivals 2.6

[pagerunner-j]

Something I'd like to ask a fair few people in Rivals fandom who are ranting about a woman dying for a man's character development:

I get it. And yet.

Did you blank out on her entire scene with Lizzie?

Everything she had to say about the things that women want and suppress, and what message that sends to our daughters and each other if we just keep on dutifully trudging along for everyone else's sake? And fact that Lizzie entirely obviously got the message?

'Cause this whole thing was about her, too.

It was about a lot of us.

And if, even in the cause of outraged feminism, you're still only paying attention to or valuing the scenes where men are talking, so you think it's still all about him, you're part of the problem.

Rest in peace to the incredible Anthony Stewart Head (20th February 1954 - 1st June 2026)

I've gone. Not one for goodbyes, I thought it best to slip out quietly. Love to you all, Giles.

Rest in peace, Anthony Stewart Head (1954 – 2026)

After Rivals this week, I had to go find a photo of Tony and Monica in happier times. That is, if being suspended over the veritable pit of hell counts.

...yeah, these two were doomed from the start. ;)

(Actually from Doctor Who, The Impossible Planet. David Tennant and Claire Rushbrook have some damn good scenes in this two-parter, too.)

Rivals S2:E6

Holy shit.

The scene at Lizzie’s kitchen table gutted me.

“Why do we stay, though, with these men who aren’t nice to us at all?”

And then when she returns home and lays it all out for Tony:

“No, Tony, it’s not your turn.”

and,

“Monica, I love you awfully much”

“NO, Tony! You love me… awfully.”

Claire Rushbrook, you nearly killed me in these scenes. You deserve every award.

David Tennant, how can you rip my heart out even when you’re convincingly playing one of the worst characters ever written?

I was holding my breath through most of this episode.

Upon hearing that Travis Willingham has been cast as Sephiroth for FFVII Revelation, I hope that he gets to do a "the story so far" recap for the start of the game, in the style of...well...this.

A fantastic summary of the state of things on Rivals. (Spoilers, obviously.) My dang heart.

I was sorta dozing through Summer Game Fest until oh, hey: a wild Matt Mercer appeared! Sounds like the final part of the FFVII remake will be coming out in spring.

...so I guess I have until then to do something about the fact that I played through half of Rebirth before I got lost and annoyed somewhere in the game map, and stopped. Er. Oops.

(I'm redownloading it. i'm probably going to have to consult a walkthrough and fumble for a while through relearning the controls, and then I guess we'll see if I'm still annoyed or if I can get through to the end this time. It at least ought to be a laugh to find out how bad I am at it after months away...)

I re-opened the game, ignored the matter of whatever sidequest it was that derailed me last time, and proceeded with the main quest, only to discover that I'd quit RIGHT before getting to the Gold Saucer.

I am obsessed with the tonberry robot.

(*tiny voice* Retribution is at hand!!)
