“See you guys soon”
(damn this uncut movie intro got me feeling feelings)
Ok so many good omens enjoyers have read The Doc making its rounds on here and I want to discuss the supposed hidden significance of the eccles cakes that op mentioned:
In short, I disagree that they meant anything important for season 3 because their symbolism was shown in its entirety through the context of the two scenes they are in.
The first we see of them is in the coffee shop when Aziraphale asks for something that calms people down, then in the next scene the cakes are shown, Crowley is leaving the bookshop in a barely suppressed rage. This leads the camera to focus in on a shot centering the eccles cakes, the established option to “calm down”, and Crowley’s glasses, basically the option to leave the bookshop in anger and go blow up outside.
I really think it’s as simple as that and that their significance is confined to these two scenes. I guess it’s a little peculiar that they vanished afterwards without being eaten, but what reason would Neil have to continue fitting them in without making them seem even more important than they are? Three is a pattern after all.
Curly going back in time
He’s not the best guy (not a all) BUT DAMN HE HAS A LOT TO TAKE IN
(Daisuke just staying🧍is so funny to me)
You know what gets me though about Donnie in the movie considering he didn’t have his mystic guns from the get go? When they all get their powers taken, why didn’t Donnie grab his tech bō or any of the tech that he had been solely relying on for most of the series? Like dang maybe it wouldn’t have defeated the Kraang but I imagine it would have helped 😭.
I just find it a little wack that Donnie, who used to fight exclusively with his tech would just be equally nerfed and out of his element after getting his mysticism removed compared to his brothers that almost solely relied on mystic powers.
But, I assume the reason is that they didn’t want Donnie to be advantaged like compared to his brothers in the movie, plus, they wanted the movie to be accessible to non-fans and so maybe the series-exclusive tech bō would have confused them. Also, I know Donnies tech bō (and his other tech) broke during the Shredder attack so it’s possible he never made a new one. I mean he didn’t remake Sheldon either as shown in the movie so I’m curious to what capacity he works on new tech at all after acquiring mystic powers.
In the movie, we see that he can materialize permanent objects, specifically battle shells, that are different to his temporary weapons, which glow a transparent purple compared to the solid objects.
So it’s possible that after the series, he focused his efforts on advancing his mystic abilities to catch up with his brothers, causing him to have less time to build tech. This heightened mysticism plus limited time to make tech traditionally could have made him more inclined to just will tech into existence using his powers when the situation required it. If he had been making tech using his powers and never got the chance to rebuild his old stuff, it’s possible he didn’t use traditional tech against the Kraang because he just didn’t have any available and couldn’t make more without his powers. Or at least this is what I’m gonna tell myself as a cope
Anyways I realize now that this is kind of detached from the original post, but I just keep thinking about how different the movie would be if Donnie just used his old tech.
or what actually would have happened:
Dang yeah I forgot that it would be almost entirely on Donnie’s shoulders to build a new, safe lair to replace their home. I wonder if that’s why it seems like Donnie and Mikey are kind of closer in the movie, because Mikey seemed capable of using power tools and assisting Donnie with construction projects as seen in the Todd episode. So I wonder if it was mostly Mikey and Donnie spending time together as Mikey helped him to rebuilt everything.
Also I remembered that Donnie did actually invent one new thing: the escape pods. So I feel like despite not having an explicit view into how the events of season 2 impacted Donnie, these little details kind of paint a picture. Especially since both the escape pods and the focus on building a new, safer home both relate to Donnie’s ability to protect his family from future dangers and his utility to the team.
