Yeeeeeah, but I think lying is different from complete gem transmutation… as we have discussed before… ;)

I dunno. Seems to me Rose could have been made in the first wave to reach Earth. In Greg's flashback episodes she seems eternally confused about human society even as she admires humanity, but that's fairly easily explainable by how the long lifespan of gems make the constant social upheaval (and attendant changing of…

I think it bears mentioning that Lion contains all of the things Rose considered most precious. The Mr. Universe T-shirt. The video for Steven. Flotsam and jetsam from Rose and Greg's relationship. So Bismuth's bubble there is special treatment compared to the hundreds of other gems floating in the Temple basement.…

Also, in "The Message," when Steven uses his "robot voice" - that's actually Zach's real voice too.

I wonder if that particular Biggs Jasper that we met a couple of episodes ago is the ACTUAL "Biggs" that Bismuth mentioned. Seems a little too coincidental that they introduce that particular Biggs Jasper and then Bismuth brings up one of the former Crystal Gems… #tinfoil

I think you're overthinking it. I don't think Gems can fundamentally change their… well, their gem. Rose as a Spartacus-type foot soldier who rises to lead a rebellion makes sense. Pearl makes sense as a former "accessory" to Pink Diamond who bought into Rose's missionary message 1,000% - which would also explain the…

I think Pink Diamond is bubbled in the Temple, as seen in that lovely high-angle shot when Peridot and Steven were facing off after he unbubbled her.

Yep - Bismuth's description of Rose seems pretty cut and dried. Fits in with my theory pretty well, though… ;)

That's been my theory for a while (LibraryLass and I went back and forth on it in another Steven thread). It would explain why the new Diamond symbology lacks the fourth diamond that the older symbols have.

One thing's sure - the "genital cuff" joke will take on a new meaning in the reboot.

GODDAMMIT HOLLYWOOD

No, I get it. It doesn't help that in that promo shot from the poster up there shows her in a metal bodice designed for a completely different person (that can't possibly be the one that they used for shooting the movie, otherwise she'd have jumped straight out of it in her first take).

That's not a criticism, that's a description, but okay. In order to satisfy your strictures for correct phraseology and attitudes, let me rephrase:

I'm not criticizing her body type - I'm just saying that she and her stunt double have two completely different profiles. It's glaringly obvious that once the stunts start that you're seeing two different people. At least it's obvious to me. YMMV.

Burt Reynolds and Dom DeLuise cracking each other up on a blooper reel shows that you can still have soul in a soulless industry.

For me, the better Needham/Reynolds collaboration was Hooper - it more directly addressed and honored Needham's, and the stunt community's, effect on Reynolds' career and the dynamic of their relationship.

I dunno. The toughest part for me about seeing Wonder Woman is going to be the disconnect between the waif-thin model Gal Gadot and her obviously far more athletic and muscular stunt double.

Those missing semicolons always getcha in the end.

I think out of all you listed, the color of Rose's gem is the most intriguing. I agree, it's a much richer red and closer to a pink diamond than a typical uncut rose quartz. BUT - everything else about her - her weapons, her hair, her skin tone, etc., all fit very neatly into the rose quartz color scheme.

Infant Sour Cream is perhaps the greatest thing ever to come out of Steven Universe simply because of Posehn's "meh."
