...Uh, you don't really think Arthur/Merlin ever had a remote chance of really becoming canon, do you?

(Anonymous) 2012-12-12 11:14 pm (UTC)(link)
not op

I want to have hope, but...

i'm dreading the finale. the show was never good by any standards but i love it so much and thinking that they'll most likely kill everybody just for the sake of "accuracy" to the legends (said accuracy never bothering them much in any other storyline) depresses me so.

At this point I fear even that is impossible. I'm crossing my fingers for you guys though.

FUCKING RIGHT??

you have an entire show based around the premise of protecting arthur with sekrit magic

if you end it by not ever revealing the magic and killing arthur WHAT WAS THE DAMN POINT

although considering how terribly they handled the lancelot/gwen fiasco i dont know if it'll ever happen. seriously that was so ham-fisted it could not have been more ham-fisted if they took an actual ham and banged it on the keyboard to write the script.

I'm not even watching this anymore, but wouldn't it be the letdown of the century for everyone who's still watching, if this doesn't happen?

(Anonymous) 2012-12-13 01:01 am (UTC)(link)
I'd say "yes", but I'm morbidly fascinated at what the fandom reaction would be if they actually don't go ahead with it.

But then, I was never all that invested in the bromance. For the life of me, I'll never understand why Merlin devoted his life to Arthur, the world's most useless king.

YES

if you search the "magic reveal" tag on tumblr you find nothing but despair

Rofl has this seriously not happened yet. /seasons behind.

(Anonymous) 2012-12-12 11:47 pm (UTC)(link)
lol arthur/merlin is never gonna happen

(Anonymous) 2012-12-12 11:49 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm disappointed in almost every aspect of this show. I feel like there's not going to be any wrap-up of all the plot points already floating in the air, and the past episodes have only added more plot lines that will be dropped unsatisfyingly (finally, hello Gwen plo-- oh well that was useless) or will just never be resolved or mentioned again.

I still can't believe they made Merlin tell Arthur not to include the old religion and magic in Camelot. He's become such a depressing doormat of a person just for Arthur's sake (seriously why isn't this show just called Arthur, the most Merlin gets to do is wave his hand and perform the One Spell in Camelot, flinging knights away), what happened to the Merlin of season 1 who stood up for everyone including himself? I can't ship him with anyone anymore HE'S BECOME SO DEPRESSING TO WATCH

even more OT, but I also loved how Morgana performed a magical snapping of ye olde neck, making every other harmful magical spell seem absolutely useless and every assassination attempt of Uther (or anyone else for that matter) look ridiculous and convoluted. In one throw-away scene. /slowclap

re: otp, which I'm assuming is Merthur... I just don't see this series ending with Arthur being alive. They have alluded to it for so long and emphasised the gloominess of Arthur's Fate so much that I can't see them not ending it on his death (despite the fact that there's virtually no peace of the heralded Albion I just idek lol the writing of this show)

At this point I'm almost relieved it's going to end.

tl;dr YEAH TAKING A SHOW LIKE MERLIN TOO SERIOUSLY FOR 100 POINTS PLEASE

NOPE. MORE LIKE ENOUGH TIME TO MAKE SURE YOUR SHIP IS CRUSHED FOREVER.

IT WAS YOUR FAULT FOR WANTING IT SO MUCH.

I hate this justified text.

Merthur won't happen and I'm glad of it tbh. The only way I would have been okay with Merthur is if they'd done an equally awesome Gwen/Morgana romance. I miss Merlin of yore when I OT4ed the four leads and legitimately bought that they all had cool connections with each other.

To be honest I was gone when they decided to make Morgana evil. I don't care if it's mythologically accurate. This show is so far from being that, that it hardly works as an excuse.

(Anonymous) 2012-12-13 05:33 am (UTC)(link)
Just the idea of being 'mythologically accurate' makes me LOL. Particularly with Arthurian stuff. Arthurian legend has always been more wibbly-wobbly than Doctor Who (Malory and then T.H. White tried to make sense of it, but didn't really).
