Questions I would not have asked him, but I enjoyed reading the answers!! Thanks for the snippet collection.. does a group of snippets have a proper name? Pack? Squad? Pod? Hmmmm....
what about the whole, I think he's the man who is going to kill me deal? are they ever going to explain what it was all about? or did I miss something?
Right, I asked this Because we knew They're gonna enter Olivia's mind, and I thought He will take part as a reflection or as an idea, not more than that. No need to.
So who IS going to die in the season finale? Can't be Olivia, thanks to BadWolfLil's question. Can't be Peter because he still has a story with Altlivia. Can't be Altlivia because of the same reasons as Peter. Can't be Walter as he still needs to confront Walternate (and that's not happening this season). Can't be Broyles since he's the only one left on both sides.
Of course, this can all be refuted if the next story arc is about saving the character who died out of the natural timeline.
The answer to question 5 makes me think that the writers just forgot about the whole "peter killing the shapeshifters" thing, and that's why Olivia doesn't react to that in these last few episodes.
Or it's just a matter of priority. Olivia just got back from being invaded by Bell's consciousness and then the world starts to fall apart... to dwell or not to dwell on something much smaller... if only the episodes were 2 hours long each.
What I really, really want to ask J.H. Wyman... Has Philip Pullman's 'His Dark Materials' trilogy been an influence to Fringe in any way? It's clear to me the books are more in the realm of fantasy than science-fiction, but some of the basic story similarities are just uncanny to me.
Both stories explore the concept of a multiverse and traveling between parallel worlds. Both prominently feature a universe where we came to use zeppelins instead of planes. Both deal with communication methods via quantum entanglement. Both focus on a strong-willed female main character with intuitive abilities (Lyra/Olivia). Both also focus on a fierce young male who came from a completely different world than the female his destiny is entangled with (Will/Peter), one who barely ever knew his father. In the books Will's Father was the first to travel between worlds, quite like Walter, and the hole he created, among others that were later made, were contributing to the end of the worlds. Will's father also had a hole drilled into his head, just like Walter. For different reasons of course, but still. Both main male characters have almost mythic roles to play in relation to a powerful weapon -- Will destined to become the bearer of the subtle knife, Peter destined to interact with the doomsday machine.
Haven't read the books in a long, long time but even though they don't have much if anything in common beyond this, this stuff has just always stuck out to me.
But still, she says there was a guy in her dream that she thinks is going to kill her and they just drop that topic? C'mon! it's not like she tells peter she saw the guy who is gonna kill her and he'll go, "ok, cool, lets talk about it later".

ReplyDeleteThanks for the snippet collection.. does a group of snippets have a proper name?
Pack? Squad? Pod? Hmmmm....
I'm just excited both Olivias will meet again! I'm one of those few that loves them both.
ReplyDeleteSo Olivia's going to react maybe next season which means she'll be around for maybe that opportunity to happen right? :)
ReplyDeletegood catch! ;)
ReplyDeletewhat about the whole, I think he's the man who is going to kill me deal? are they ever going to explain what it was all about? or did I miss something?
ReplyDeleteIf Alias and Lost have taught us anything it's that it may not indicate this finale, maybe he's the man that's going to kill her in 3 seasons time
ReplyDeleteI asked JH a Q too... You can add it:

Maybe... But it possible to be on "The Day We Died"... or she died...
ReplyDeleteThanks Dor, just updating now.
ReplyDeleteTHEY WILL MEET AGAIN.
ReplyDeleteCan't wait.
Anna and Mark valley are divorced. If they brought him back, it would be a little unfair to their lead actress, don't you think!
ReplyDeleteRight, I asked this Because we knew They're gonna enter Olivia's mind, and I thought He will take part as a reflection or as an idea, not more than that. No need to.

ReplyDeleteOr we lost Olivia in LSD , and somehow .. this one is not Olivia .
ReplyDeleteCount me in as well ^^;! Like Both Liv's Too! *waves* Hey sweetie!!!
