>that one duck dodgers episode that was just taking the piss out of samurai jack
>>
>>153368435
it weas also one of the best episode
>>
>>153368435
As good as Samurai Jack was, the moral conflict of going back to the past or staying and fighting whatever current dilemma he saw always came across as forced. And because the show was always so light on dialog, it was never really clear why he always picked staying to fight, for any reason other than to maintain the status quo. When you have a moral conflict that relies too heavily on the audience to do the heavy lifting, it just makes Jack come off as a dumbass. And it doesn't help that the finale of the series proved the audience right.

Duck dodgers wasn't that good to begin with, so it's a pretty low bar.
>>
If only Jack subscribed to the Doc Brown timeline theory.
>>
>>153368844
define "forced"
go on, proceed to try and justify this criticism which is really just a form of boredom
>>
>>153368883
Why would Jack put so much effort into resolving a conflict in the future if he can go back to the past and prevent that conflict from happening in the first place?

It becomes this time travel discussion of paralell universes. So despite fixing his paat, this future would still exist and suck.
>>
>>153369317
And why did Ashi disappear if it's a parallel universe?
>>
>>153369350
that's the real forced part
>>
>>153368875
Time travel is turbofucked
>Timeline is self-enforcing entirely incidentally
Is the most logically coherent version of same-timeline alteration and that tends to be incredibly unsatisfying narratively
>>153369350
Presumably he wouldn't have known that at the time.
It also wouldn't make any sense for that to happen because if that happened, he wouldn't have met her and wouldn't have gone back in time and the entire situation would bootstrap itself out of existence. Don't remember why that didn't take effect in this case, I assume it runs on bullshit magic rules.
>wait, why does the spell end at midnight?
>bitch, I just turned a pumpkin into a carriage and that's your first question? Just be happy this shit works at all
And this is why all witches should be burned
