TASKMASTER S19 SPOILER

So this allegedly IS a spoiler for S19 contestants...

Taskmaster s18e08

[futuristicdoormats789]

this happened right

[losttranslator]

last time, I promise, but I need to shout into the void.

THE REDS AND BLUES WERE ALREADY FRIENDS DURING AND AFTER CHORUS. RESTORATION'S THEMATIC THROUGHLINE OF THEM REALIZING THE OTHER SIDE 'ISN'T SO BAD' MAKES NO SENSE POST-STAFF-OF-CHARON.

THEY WERE ALREADY ONE BIG TEAM (already were wayyyyy before Chorus too) AND THEY KNEW IT AND THEY WERE OKAY WITH IT. SARGE WAS SINGING THE BEAT TO TUCKER'S DANCE MOVES TO TAUNT THEIR MUTUAL ENEMIES AND THEY WERE ALL READY TO DIE TOGETHER AND FOR EACH OTHER

[soultea]

Things I will be taking as Canon from RVB Restoration:

Sarge cares enough for Caboose that he would go back and save him for no reason other than he cares for him.

Tucker cares about Caboose enough that it was able to snap him out of mind control for just a few seconds, something we don't see with the Meta.

There was still a part of Epsilon in Wash (if I saw that last scene correctly)

If given the power to do so, the first thing Simmons would do was give the love of his life that ability to get out of the army, the thing he assumes he would want more than anything. (Though in my version they leave /together/

479er is still out there and doing great.

If Washes recovery beacon goes off, Carolina WILL stop EVERYTHING she's doing to track him down.

If Sarge were to die, he'd leave Simmons his shotgun.

Things I will not be taking as Canon from RVB Restoration:

The rest of it.

The fact that everything past S13 is reconed except Wash Angst

Please add your own!

Thanks for all the kind words about our Simmons!

Meanwhile, stuff about RvB S19 Spoilers under the cut.

I want to start out with the movie definitely felt like they tried to put what love they could in it, but with time constraints, Rooster Teeth being shut down, and budgeting, a lot of character development and general awareness of where the characters would be left where they put them suffered. But Church and Tex reuniting with her being made of the memories of how she wanted to be remembered was beautiful.

I would talk more about how other characters felt completely sidelined, and it was definitely hurtful that Donut got basically nothing even if he was a part of the main team (literally just make an excuse about his armor. Or hue change him in editing. Not like it hasn't been done before) but I feel like most of it's already been said by others.

My most important note is: If Simmons is now the leader of Red Team.... what Red Team? What war? What people is he leading? His "leadership" developments consisted of: Running at the Meta, being called 'sir', and throwing something really well. He hadn't even displayed leadership qualities before he was handed the torch here, unless you count previous seasons where he still didn't manage it well, and realized it was a part of his own issues with authority.

I know it's all over already, but it would've worked better if he had been helping out as a leader earlier on, and properly earned it, achieving some sort of small victory against the Meta even if they were still beaten back for Carolina and Tex to take charge in combat. He'd learn that the position was exhausting, and that he would be done when their war ended. Maybe even funnel it into a different occupation. Go home with Grif. It's over.

if you havent seen restoration, dw fam I gotchu

screenshot redraw from the new rvb:restoration trailer… oh my god… he’s coming back to us

[nightmare-foundation]

Couple of gripes I have about Restorations writing:

-There was hardly any reaction from the others about Tucker being the Meta. Not even Wash blinked at it, and I highly doubt he knew Tucker was the Meta. The others... didn't seem to have Any form of emotional reaction? Just ":0 he's the meta??" And that was it

-literally no one tried telling Carolina or Tex that they were fighting Tucker (they seemed to just,, know?? Somehow??). I expected someone to yell "THAT'S TUCKER! ITS TUCKER, DON'T KILL HIM!" And there was just. No moral dilemma when it came to fighting him??

-Building off the last one, they were all so... split up? It was like all the development kinda just disappeared. They didn't seem to really care about each other like they had previously.

-Tucker himself seemed. Entirely unaffected? Despite getting psychologically tortured IHNMAIMS style. Like,, huh?

-The tone was so off at times I couldn't take sarge's death seriously.

All of these are things I 100% would've changed. Really the biggest thing I liked was Wash being system-coded.

RvB 19: Watch it for free before it goes away!

[soloragoldsun]

So, let me get this straight... They retconned all of Season 15 (aka the closest we got to confirmed Grimmons), then had Grif just...leave? He asked Simmons to go with him, and Simmons just...didn't??? Even when Grif left the door open for if Simmons came to Earth, Simmons was like "I won't."

What the fuck??? You're telling me Rooster Teeth, the company that pretty much leaned entirely on Bumbleby to advertise RWBY in its last few years, just decided to NOT have the BIGGEST QUEER SLOWBURN EVER finally get together in the last fucking movie?!?! Not only that, but they basically said "Yeah, it'll never happen, even offscreen." Just.....WHY?!?!?!

Rvb fans: ask for the gang to stay together at the end of the series

So are we taking s19 as a different simulation or is this the real, canonical end?

The way I interpreted it was that s19, along with 15-Zero, are simulations. While they could have happened, we aren’t sure if that’s what truly happened. If any of them are the actual ending the reds and blues got.

[sco07ut]

how did i feel about the way rvb19 treated iys female characters:

dylan: weird???? she felt so mischaracterised. between that and the new voice she fully felt like a new character ☹️ it also felt like she was forced in for like no reason. in s15 she seemed to be like a pretty esteemed journalist so idk why she would be stammering on stage in a nearly empty comic con. peculiar and i think they could’ve made the intro so much better if it had been a bit more like s15. dylan having some sort of interview maybe, talking about the disappearance of the rnbs and still getting cut off by the meta but in a way that like actually feels like her ? like she wasn’t particularly afraid of spencer porkinsensen (or whatever the fuck he was called)

kai: i was hoping she’d get a cameo but christ not that short. where in the name of god was my kai + grif interaction. i also think she could’ve killed the meta with sheer cunt force alone, my girl was held back !!!! also so disappointed that she never got to see tex again

sheila: i was not expecting you!!!! but it’s so good to see you again. did they rescue her from charon or something?? honestly quite sweet.

479er: Really wasn’t expecting you ! she contributed to the plot really nicely, it didn’t feel like she was forced in at all. it would’ve been nice to see more of her though, i feel like her scenes happened Very quickly. i also would’ve loved to see her interact with the other freelancers (particularly carolina and tex) but whatever i can’t complain too much about her

grey: what did they do to you!!!!!!! who are you!!!!! you are not the emily grey i know and love!! you would have so much more consideration for wash ☹️ another case of being mischaracterised so bad that i fully didn’t realise it was grey until wash said her name. this might also be because the infinite armour looks absolutely nothing like her but i don’t know jack abt infinite so i can’t really say anything

tex: I LOVE YOU I LOVE YOU I CANNOT BELIEVE RT ACTUALLY ACKNOWLEDGED HER PAST ENDING WAS SO DIRTY. wish she had maybe had a small conversation with the rnbs but honestly her saying ‘and in their memories i always kicked their asses’ was enough. she knows she’s the woman ever. i wasn’t expecting her to get sucked into the unit though :( like i suppose it makes sense to let her finally rest with whatever iteration of church was created when the ais merged but man i was looking forward to her joining the rnbs again and like idk getting to know her daughter properly this time?? severely missing tex and carolina content

carolina: where did you even come from girl!! where were you before you dropped out of the sky!!!!! i also wish she had spoke to the others & had like an actual scene where she was told sarge was dead bc they had like a weird little friendship going on and he’s just gone !! i feel like she barely did anything. she just dropped into the fight, did fuck all, and then revealed that wash has apparently been hallucinating the dead body of doc. erm

bonus ct + south: ct’s speech was alr i guess it wasn’t particularly memorable but it was nice that she was included tbh. though i was surprised south was in the freelancer lineup given she lowk bullied wash idk

in conclusion: my girls deserved better

[simpin-for-simmons]

for a "tucker is the villain (or at least his body kind of is)" season there was a significant lack of junior.
