I’m going to give The Strain one more episode. It’s getting too dumb for me now. So we have an old guy who knows all about what these creatures are and at least their base level intentions, yet with all his conversations with the two chuckle heads from the cdc before this episode, he didnt bother to at once just finally be like, lemme stop teasing you and show you what it is i’m talking about, and what youre dealing with. What pissed me off the most this episode though was the women. HERE WE GO AGAIN. More stupid fucking women on tv and in movies, and for what. I mean, at least give the women a reason to be irrational. Oh you dont wanna continue on because you have to kill people??? BITCH, YOU JUST SAW THE ANATOMY OF THIS THING, AND HIM PULL A 6 FOOT GOD DAMN FUCKING STINGER FROM ITS BODY, OUT OF ITS MOUTH. THE HUMAN BIOLOGY IS NO MORE. THERE IS NO MORE GOD DAMN FUCKING HUMAN!!!
Its like, what kind of logic. You are a fucking scientist. How do you expect to turn these monsters back into humans? You gonna call Dr Strange to come do some magic that will make them regrow their genitals, barf out a stinger the length of their body, rewire their brains, and rearrange all their organs again. If she quit because of denial of what was happening, fine. I can understand that, but to quit because youre killing “people” even after knowing the human body just becomes a host, and is essentially no longer, is crazy. If they wrote the creatures to always maintain their humanity, and even still look normal, but have new biological urges and necessities, that would be one thing, but clearly everyone of these fucking things you have encountered, its intention is to kill you and turn you.
Then we have the dumbest wife of the century who fed her neighbor to her husband because he hit their dog once. You know, the dog thats dead now because your monster husband ripped its throat and guts out. So whats the plan here? To keep daddy in a shed and feed him people you temporarily do not like, and pray to your god in hopes he magically gets cured, even though by the time she comes back to check on him, he should have a 6 foot long stinger coming out of his mouth, and strength enough to rip away from whatever is holding him down.
Its not a feminist issue for me, but writers need to stop with their hatred for women in hollywood, and write some decent female roles that do not end up in the shit we just got from the women in the recent episode of The Strain. Like for me, id rather write strong ideal women in my tv shows and movies then the same type of bitches i cant stand, doing the dumb shit i hate. Its like a group of dorks just get together to write bad roles for women all the time in order to get back at them. But for the viewer, at least any viewer with some type of intelligence, it just makes me want to stab my eyeballs and ear drums with a sharpened pencil everytime i have to sit through that poorly written nonsense.
If The Strains weakness of a possible lack of monsters outside of these worm-vampires is going to be balanced out by having a bunch of stupid ass humans running around making illogical and irrational decisions for seasons to come, in order for the show to exist, and to drag out the plot, then i’ll gladly bail the fuck out now, and just watch reruns of shows i like until the fall season starts.
I mean, the bitch said, “I’d rather die from this epidemic then kill people”. YOU WOULD RATHER HAVE A MONSTER TURN YOU INTO A MONSTER, THEN KILL MONSTERS. I hope her character dies before i have to bail on this series, like gets her head smashed to bits like that one dude, but at least she is gone for now, and we have the first introduction of the old man and the cdc, so we can progress this story further. The dumb house mom has to go too, and since she likes to kill innocent people, her kids should get turned or die too as a result of her selfishness and stupidity. That will send a nice clear message for characters like that for the remainder of this shows exitence. All stupid and useless people go bye bye, and being stupid will also hurt those around you.
If this scenario were observed on 1000 occasions at various places of employment… 99% of the time, most people know the deal here.
