It was a great movie. Change is something we have to do for ourselves.

I recently saw the Negative Man fight in Mother 3. A big rectacular guy who doesn't believe he can win, and doesn't even try, although he's got plenty of hit points and takes a long time to defeat.

That was more like me that I'd care to admit.

Guess I need to move forward too. Did you come up with any new theories watching the movie? I did wonder how Spinel, who was a simple jester until she saw Steven's broadcast, managed to find a planet-destroying bio weapon on short notice.

There was some brilliant engineering in that thing. And while it looks like similar technology to gem injectors, the Gem Empire colonizes life-rich planets to leech their life force to make gems. Simply destroying all organic life seems... wasteful for them?

While Spinel herself doesn't seem tied to The Enemy in Space, that still-unknown entity that Yellow wanted a planet-destroying cluster to fight, I have to wonder if they inspired her actions, somehow.
