I agree with the followup. Even as a kid, the fact that chemical warfare was played so lightly kind of bothered me, and later finding out that the oatmeal thing could have been entirely skipped as it was never revisited bothered me even more.

What does it mean to be free?

Good review. Loved that you brought up the bit of Andalites eating all the time bit. It's too bad that the chemical was sooo silly when the theme itself was really quite strong. And yeah it should have had some impacts in later books, but perhaps the idea of oatmeal was too silly to continually bring up so they ignored it.
can't wait for #18 since I love that book so much.

Just watched the review on The Secret and it was nicely done, however, you got one thing wrong... they TRIED to tell Visser Three TOMATO JUICE gets rid of skunk smell but V3 in stereotypical bad guy fashion refuses the advice and gets stuck bathing in grape juice and now the Controllers are too afraid to tell him. Other than that, I agree with everything. Good job!

It's been a while, hasn't it? If you've been hanging around my Youtube channel, you probably know I was working on a seperate non-Animorphs project that was taking up all my time. I'm still not done, but I figured you guys have waited long enough, sooooo...

(comes bursting onto the forum)

I just read your review of #18. I liked it, very good! Glad to see you keep the "busting-Rachel-over-stopping-a-RAPIST" joke going.

And I agree: WHY didn't they just think Alloran morphed it BEFORE he was infested? Hell, I thought that when I was around their age, so why can't the ANIMORPHS think about it?

And I agree: Cassie DID NOT ask Rachel's permission. AT ALL. Cassie... SHUT UP.

Continuity boner lol

And I thought it was pronounced AX-IM-IL-EE.

Anyway, good review! More please!

I liked the reviews. I never really noticed, but not only did Cassie not ask permission, but she lied and said she did later. Of course Cassie is known for being a hypocrite.

In book 15 I notice you didn't go over the part of Rachel consoling Marco. It's probably the first time Rachel and Marco have a nice moment together, and it goes along with her goal of saving families tht have been effected by the Yeerks.

I'm looking forward to the Book 19 review, and what you think about Karen just being ignored by the Yeerks after she's freed. Of course there are also other memorable moments in the book as well.

I didn't click the links yet, but even if every one of those is 10 minutes + each, I will indeed sit here for the next hour and a half and go straight through them.

EDIT #1: Do you have a link to a higher resolution of that poster? I'd really like it.

EDIT #2: Wow. That was really substantial. To play devil's advocate, you could sort of justify Tobias' actions by assuming he truly believed that you couldn't change the timeline by going into the past, and would doom everyone if he didn't make the choices he did. Sort of how Darth Vader is evil but honestly thought he was being the good person. It may be selfish to damn everything on the planet for the reason to "normalize" the timeline, but then again, to go off what Marco says, it's all about survival.

Still, it's been established the present can be changed by modifying the past. So wow. Genocide.
