I'm not happy to be correct
[quote name="San Fernando Investor"][quote name="Ice Cream Jonsey"]Literally every part was correct. [/quote] I was being a little indulgent since it was sci-fi... sadly, the writer(s) mindset is understandable. It might not be TV Tropes, however there's definitely "research" done from a shallow pool of sources before taking on a new project. For me the cynical soup broth was merely Star Wars (KOTOR, Ep2) + Strong Woman. Again, I'm posting this <i>cynically</i> to poke fun of media. I run the risk of being a totally wrong doofus, yet my heuristics pay back just as guessing the end scene of Life Is Strange from its E3 trailer. The aspect of a child soldier (tragic past) is to invoke emotional response, clone soldier & assassin is meant to be the 'answer' as to why a character can kick ass, memory loss/deletion is procrastination so you don't have to write it all now (maybe also from Wolverine). [quote name="Bosley"]It's an acceptable deviation from reality so I don't have to look at 180lb women[/quote] I'd rather see an attractive lady too. In this case we could stand to have some character flaws, motivation, and adversity too. <i>Maybe</i> the show actually succeeds there at the end? I don't know. The boilerplate is a victimhood origin with superpowers which ultimately tells us much more about the writers desires & ideology than the story itself. Superman is boring and making him a woman isn't a fundamental improvement. [/quote]
