...
I am not sure how to process this episode and the crushing reality of what it means for the future of the show, considering there are only two episodes left.
Also Jax, what the heck.
I will likely scream about this more later after I watch the episode a couple more times to help process it. x.x
I know I'm late to the party, because even though I did watch the episodes when they first dropped, I haven't posted on IDOJ at all since before the New Year, and before Episode 7, but I WAS RIGHT THERE WITH YOU IN REACTION AND SPEECHLESS...NESS, and couldn't stop saying, "THEY CAN'T JUST DROP THAT AND MAKE US WAIT 3 MONTHS,, WHAT THE FRICK?! BEFORE CHRISTMAS?!"
Also I was/am totally on board with the theory that Jax killed a kid. Like, accidentally, in the real world, on the road, explaining the flashbacks and panic attack.
But it was indeed a ROLLER COASTER. F*cking understatement, I know.
The latest episode dropped, the way I gasped and almost jumped off the couch when the end credit music started playing.
I HAVE TO WAIT UNTIL JUNE????
At Kinger's last line, "I think...I accidentally killed Caine," I screamed, "That's FINE!!!"
Followed by my excited at Zooble's ability to swear now. Good for her! Long deserved.
Apologies that you made this topic, Sarah, in excitement that you and I are both fans, and then I disappeared, it's just bad habit, but I'm still as much of a fanatic of the show as ever.
And just yesterday - after catching up on some youtube shorts in my subscriptions - after ignoring them while binging "Taken" movie reactions most of the day as background noise while doing things - I saw the new ADC short about the finale being in actual movie theaters (when I first clicked on it I thought it was about new merch, which I always still watch because they're really funny and creative), and thought that was awesome, but likely not near me, only in those special theaters that has cool events like that, but worth clicking on the locations anyway, and it IS at my local movie theater, and hurried up and bought a ticket before it's sold out!
THIS will be the highlight of my summer, though I'm likely to leave the building a crying mess.
I know now that I'm back to talking about the show here all of my Episode 7 opinions from months ago (and my Episode 8 opinions from weeks ago) will come flooding back to me!
I've said for a long time that when the show ends I will feel so empty, but now I don't care so much and June 6th can't come fast enough (a Saturday was best for me, though I know June 4th is the soonest day, so I'll need to be extremely careful avoiding spoilers during those agonizing first few days)!
(Oh, and I haven't watched the trailer for the finale yet, I was nervous to do so, but now I guess I need to with all my anticipation for the theater premiere. Yikes.)
