Re: SKYFALL TALK

[(Anonymous)]

I was more weirded out by him not doing more to save her life to be honest. She was really counting on him to help her and he let her die literally seconds before help arrived. He couldn't have jumped the guys before she got shot in the head?

I honestly didn't know if he shot her dead in that scene until the helicopters came. It was such a horrible scene to me. I thought she moved her head and split the drink.

But yeah, I was really just not feeling any of Severine's scenes. I felt like she was there so they could have a Bond girl, and didn't know what to do with her, so they killed her off - and awfully. And Bond just kind of sat there and was like "Eh. Okay." I was super pissed he didn't do more.

Nope. My (male) SO was the first to bring up how weird that scene was, especially since the sex work and abuse began when she was underage.

That scene and, yes, Bond's quip about his hidden radio and backup pretty much right after Severine dies. Same as you, I first thought she moved intentionally and was still alive because of how triumphant the moment was played. It also made more sense to me to read the scene that way because of how much Silvia enjoyed the theatrics and melodrama of manipulating people and events. So Severine would have stood straight with Bond because she trusted him that much, but flinched when Silvia took a shot -- then Silvia would have both enjoyed her reaction and shown Bond that her fear of him dominated her trust in Bond.

...The other, other thing that weirded me out was as soon as Severine's tattoo was shown, my first thought was "WAIT WHICH SAILOR SENSHI IS SHE???"

Agreed that it felt like they were going through the motions of "Bond girl" with her.

That's funny and kind of interesting, because there was an old Sailor Moon website I used to love that did a parody of bad SM sites, one of the no-no's on the site was making up dub names for the Outer Senshi (this was before those seasons were actually dubbed) and the dub name they used for Setsuna/Pluto was... Severine.

And even though the site was supposed to be terrible, I thought "What a pretty name!" So I've always remembered it from there.

ayrt

Ha, funny! Re-looking at the tattoo on Skyfall's Severine, I think it's a Chinese character that happened to look similar to the symbol for Jupiter in the movie's close-up, causing that brief but vast mental leap.

Severine is a very pretty name :)
