I never got the notion from Tali that she wanted to bear children with Shepard...

I have never been in a theater with so many young adults sobbing, young adults that were about my age. It was especially moving because I did grow up with the franchise, I remember the toys and films when I was the appropriate age.cannedcream wrote...

I actually was tearing up during Toy Story 3, which surpassed Wall-E where I only had a mild incentive to cry.
Wall-E nearly broke me down emotionally. The only other movie that came that close before or since has been Green Mile.
But I've yet to see Up or TS3.
Maybe that kid in the 2nd Mass Effect book is Jack's kid.cannedcream wrote...

That kid is going to be sooooo effed up.
Not necessarily in a bad way, but. . . there is zero chance of normalcy there.
Yeah, but throw Jack into that equation and. . . I don't even wanna think about it.

One of the invocations Shala'Raan makes during the start of the trial is a direct word-for-word translation of a Jewish prayer.

I would say it is their best film.
Strange how I never learned of this before. Thank you for this insight.Orion1836 wrote...

They kind of do, though I think their story is far more Battlestar Galactica than Old Testament. That being said, I think the Jewish angle was incorporated to give them more of a cultural flavor. It fits with the Eastern European accents exhibited by Tali/Shala/Rael and a few of the NPC Quarians.
If you're interested, this is the prayer:

Jules Verne, Mark Twain, Lewis Carroll, Poe, Isaac Asimov, and Lovecraft are the ****.NuclearBuddha wrote...
I almost never buy books: I never read stuff more than once, usually. I just have a few treasured books I have to own, like HPL's stuff. Everything I read at the library.Azint wrote...
Yes, people still use the library.

My Shep wanted off the streets, only to find that it was almost more messed-up out in the galaxy. He'd love the chance to kick back.Collider wrote...
Which brings me to the question. Given how famous and popular Shepard will probably be made (there was a lot of that in ME2...), my Shepard would have all the more reason to try to fall under the radar as much as possible. He (like CannedCreams's shepard IIRC) is more of a "relunctant hero" who is doing these things basically because he has to.
The critics have certainly been praising the movie. Though how much that matters depends on how much stock you put into their opinions.cannedcream wrote...

Good to hear. I was worried when I heard about TS3, that it would be a crappy cash-cow film that would butcher my fond memories. Nice to know that it holds up.
Like I said, Wall-E was the previous champing for nearly making me tear up. So little dialogue, yet you could feel the romance. Wall-E was a beautiful film for many reasons.RedTracer7 wrote...
Never hit me emotionally. I did find Eve's emotions well expressed by her eyes though. In that she used them like a complete face.

Same, although Colonist Shepard. Saw his family killed by slavers, joined Alliance as a result. Lost his team on Akuze. After all all the Reaper business is over, I think he would be tired of fighting. At least in the literal sense. Assuming that the Quarians reenter the galactic scene, it's plausible for him to help the Quarians in some way adjust to their new life.NuclearBuddha wrote...
