They have not had a chance to explore or discover the answer to their "apparent" failure. <br /><br />Who knows? - Observers travel through time - maybe the wormhole closed for a decade - but they jumped back in time and stopped their shipment on the second iteration, knowing the collapse was imminent. You gotta think these things thru. Just like Peter going back and saving Etta on the second iteration in the warehouse where she was shot by Captain Skidmark.

I'm beginning to wonder if the whole scavenger hunt for creating the weapon will be too. 'Collecting coupons' is what this type plot is usually called. It seems to me getting kind of tedious that every week we're focused on this. Season 5 is on par with season 4 so far, but it suffers from not having a firm plot development IMHO. The story and characters seem to just drift with the current. I would have thought the final season would have been better planned. The homages to other SyFy too may be getting a little overdone. The rescue of Walter <br />a few weeks ago was similar to that of Morpheus in THE MATRIX (complete with the gun in each hand shootout). Next week too, recalls when Neo figured out the matrix programming and attacked the agent with his now equal powers. Using the wormhole to deliver a bomb was right out of BATTLEFIELD EARTH. And of course the interrogation with the eye closeup was pure BLADE RUNNER. I'd rather they pay more attention to their own story. And turn Peter loose. We want payback not the tired "dig two graves" meme. It's not revenge, it's justice. Best line was a couple of weeks ago when the interrogator found his men dead with no faces and said, "Barbaric." Yep, and there's more where that came from. "War is all hell." Time to give them a belly full of it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-788645746622659643.post-43579266907136047432012-11-05T04:28:33.397-05:002012-11-05T04:28:33.397-05:00You need far more than two graves if you want reve...You need far more than two graves if you want revenge.

These are settings that made me reflect and reorder my emotions felt as if it was a remake of that great episode 5.05, thank you. For my part, anyway, I do not like really when "dies" some important character during the course of the stories being told. I do not like it. Moreover, if a final grade when this "death" whoever knocks imaginary until then, I created that I built over the course of the show. But since its beginning, Fringe seemed to be really different, these issues of "death." I have always been guided by a rule, or a lemma that I did for myself, "nobody dies for a long time in Fringe." And within this theme, we have seen Olivia (as I recall) "die" a couple of times, and it is there, alive and well, at the doors of the end of Fringe.<br /><br />The Etta was a character, in my opinion, that went very well within the context of the script Fringe, and this premature "death" of her, pulled me out, or somehow erased all that atmosphere I had ever done, or formed team composition Fringe, this 5th season. By going further, because now without Etta, the Fringe team is depleted, pass me that feeling of missing something, of being incomplete, I have this impression. But, think or presume that the "death" of Etta, is something strategic Wyman, something to be presented at the end of Fringe. But this is mere conjecture mine course.<br /><br />I'm also not against, totally, "death" character protagonists, but am not much in favor. Everything is relative, depends on the circumstances of the cases, and the show I'm watching. I personally want to enjoy the main characters from beginning to end of a show, if not more or less this way, I will not like this show, flatly. At least that's me. Of course, everything is as if, like the show, but if we're talking about Fringe, I do not particularly go into discussion, because I want to see in the final scene, at least, Walter, Olivia and Peter, live and well. That, to me, is a condition unique and basic.<br /><br />Zepphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01697038527530043362noreply@blogger.com
