Listening to the V7 director commentary for the first time and I almost dropped my jaw when I heard Luna call the racist drunkards the "faces of Mantle" like??

You want these two assholes to represent all of Mantle yet expect the audience to give a shit when it's threatened? Fuck em and fuck Mantle!

#rwde #also why tf did they want to keep floating atlas a secret so bad?#it's not worth keeping secret considering it means jack shit #'ooo the city floats' okay AND???? the most yall did w it was make it fall to destroy two major cities and dehome a gazillion people #people that the audience never knew and cant give a flying fuck abt #iirc the only speaking roles of *actual* mantle people were either racist douche canoes or a joke #why tf was that activist so looney if we're supposed to think positively of Robyn? i wouldnt trust a politician if that was her support #esp if her v first on screen appearance is an attempted ambush on our heroes!!!#i was genuinely shocked to learn i was supposed to trust her bc everything in the framing was telling me hell fucking no #the only framing that helps her is being pitted against Jacques so cartoonishly which is hardly a feat #a grimm would look good compared to jacques #deadass tho theres nothing more damning to the 'ironwood was always evil' theory than the commentary #they talk so positively abt him and talk abt how they had lots of discussions abt how they wanted him to go #if he was evil from the get go those discussions wouldnt be necessary and the early chapter v7 commentary would be foreshadowing shit
