|thoughts = }} | |thoughts = So there was a "Hercules: The Legendary Journeys" intro and everything. I wonder if this was a later addition, or whether even in this TV movie period they already had the overarching title? | ||
Incredibly chauvinist at the beginning, though that is clearly to help make the point of what the titular Amazon Women were fighting against. | |||
Zeus is... weird. King of the gods, incredibly powerful, but he just pops in and out to talk to Hercules and not do much of anything, like a Navi in Ocarina of Time. Looking forward I see he is in the rest of these movies, but not continuing on to the series. I wonder how they write that in? I mean, Zeus is still around, right? | |||
So [[Lucy Lawless]] was in this as a non-Xena character. I wondered if she just impressed them so much they decided they needed to find a bigger use for her, but it seems that's not the case. They just... didn't care that they were reusing an actor. | |||
So when Hercules's buddy Iolaus died I knew there had to be some kind of reversal since I know he continues to be a major character, but I was definitely not expecting essentially a time travel solution where Hercules wipes 80% of the movie's events from existence, and decides to just solve things by giving a short pep talk to the guy who came asking for help. | |||
CG was... very much low budget 1990s TV CG. Serves its purpose, extremely obvious. | |||
So Hercules fought a hydra. Chop one head off, two grow back. OK, still seems like this is a winning strategy? You make a hydra with one body and 20 heads, it's going to be so damn imbalanced. Good luck making any movements without wrapping one of your necks around another, dumbass!}} | |||
