Speaking of which, who else think it would have been funny if this happened.

^LOL. Yeah, that would have been funny XD
I am glad to see so many fellow 1-fans. He's been my favorite since first seeing the movie, and I was very sad (though not entirely surprised) to see how many people in the fandom disliked him at first XD

XD That's pretty much exactly what SHOULD have happened. XD
"Okay 8, it's your turn to kick 9 square in the junk!"

I... have a different idea of what might have happened after that first panel... *shot a million times*

Redwhistle?! I seriously didn't need to think about that. XDDD Moving on. Anyhow, the comic was very funny, and I'm sure a lot of people would have enjoyed seeing that in the movie...although it would have ruined the bittersweet mood a little. I love the inclusion of 2 and 5, and their expressions in the last panel are priceless. Deadgirlspainting, did you draw that? 1 fans FTW!! ;D

Well, I think 2 kneeing 9 in the groin would've ruined the mood more than anything 1 would have done. XDD
Though you can still have the bittersweet "Well done 9" hand on his shoulder thing, but I think it would have been more in character if he given him a sharp ghost-slap first. XDD

*wince* Ooh. That's true. XP
Well then, given the alternatives to this scene, I don't mind so much! And while I don't usually see 1 for much of a physically violent person, you raise a good point there.

^Yeah probably XD. But I think still I what really happened in the movie is fine with me. I mean heck, there was even a deleted scene 1 and 9 do make up and put thier differences aside.
No, I didn't draw it. It was drawn by Yoketron on DA. It was something I that faved a long time ago and this topic kind of made me remember it.

There was? That probably would have made 1's sudden heel face martyrdom seem a lot more oncoming than after 5 seconds of contemplation. XD It probably wouldn't even hurt even if he did have some physical presence there to make contact. XD it'd be like.
1: *approaches 9, stern faced* 9: *looks at him, then down guiltily* 1: *smacks 9 in the face* 9: * turns slightly with the force, looking shocked at that then looks back at 1* 1: *keeps looking stern, places a hand on 9's shoulder and smiles gently, nodding to him*
Feels more like that message would be "You fucked up, but I forgive you". But in the actual scene, what I got was more like "Wasn't your fault, thanks for saving us and all that" XD

^ I'm not particularly fond of it, but here you are. Your re-write of the scene works. In the movie, 1 does kind of stare at 9 (who looks a little shocked in return), but I feel that's got a different feel to it than a full-out slap to the face. No bad pun intended. XD ^Yeah probably XD. But I think still I what really happened in the movie is fine with me. I mean heck, there was even a deleted scene 1 and 9 do make up and put thier differences aside. No, I didn't draw it. It was drawn by Yoketron on DA. It was something I that faved a long time ago and this topic kind of made me remember it. No? Oh, that's all right. Have an exalt anyway, for bringing it to our attention. ^^

He's dead, what does he care? His troubles are over. Not only that, but I think at that point he realized he couldn't exactly pass judgment on anyone. It's not like he had handled things any better. In fact, he fucked up way more than 9 ever had, for far longer, and unlike 9, did it intentionally. I don't think his sacrifice at the end was abrupt at all, either... I think 1 changes gradually throughout the movie, and it really does all lead up to that moment. Of course, that might just be all in my mind. XD

But, see, the thing about 9's fuck up was that it was LIKE all of 1's fuck ups except all occurring at the exact same moment in one huge moment of "DaDURP" which seems quite a bit worse when you compare them side by side. XD And to be honest, NOBODY actually died because of something 1 did. Though everybody who stuck around 1 died(looks at 9 apprehensively). Either way, no matter what, I figured somebody needed to slap 9 in the face for that stupid act, and if there were any point that that could be changed into a Crowning Moment of Heartwarming it would be the shoulder pat.
1's troubles, may have been over, but the "HURDURP" of 9 continues. Personally, I would find that a bit unfair. XD
"Oh yay, now my troubles are over and I can explode in the sky and become green rain. Thank you so much.....dick."

Funny comic XD But, 1 shoved 9 out of the way and died in his place, after saying "1 must be sacrificed for the good of many". He knew he was going to snuff it. He couldn't handle the loss of his hand, I guess.

Yeah XD though come to think of it the idea of it spawned one time when I was talking to Yoketron and Lady-warrior on DA and I remeber we were wondering if1 was probably kind of hoping that 9 would get the talimen before his soul was completely sucked out. Thus why the "You didn't pull it out fast enough" line in the thrid panel. I think that idea kind of came about because after watching the movie more then once, you kind of notice that for some reason 1's soul seemed to take a little longer than the others to get sucked out.

I figured it's because 1 was fighting the loss of his soul, if that makes any sense. If you listen, he's kinda...making rasping, strained sort of noises, like he's being choked or he's struggling to hold on. That was the impression I always got of that scene, at any rate.
I was glad to see 1 made peace with 9 how he did...I felt they took the deleted scene and made it much less overt and...overly cheery, I guess. You can tell from 1's actions that he forgave 9, and that's all you really needed in terms of resolution between them.
Though I do wish he was given a little more of a reason to forgive him. Woulda been nice to see them work together a little more at the end of the film or something.
