Just in case any one had any doubts over Max ..


I called it.. She is a total backstabbing, two face biatch and this new episode proved it ... Hoping she's right alongside Eleanor when judgement comes her way .

reply

Oh I keep forgetting it gets released a day early. Looking forward to it.

reply

I can't wait to watch her die. I hope she dies a horrible death. She deserves it.

reply

Yup. It seemed like she was kinda on the fence in Season 3, but yeah, she's officially a traitor (...to criminals).

Wow. Who's going to be hated more now? Max or Eleanor?

But no one seemed to really want to hurt these two. Entire episode, people reflecting on how they don't really want to get back at them.

reply

Eleanor will always be more hated to me.. Max has always been about getting hers and keeping peace... Plus she's been in love with Eleanor who has used her and vane and anyone else she can..
So to me it's no comparison

reply

Hey, that's true. Even with Max's betrayal, it's always mostly in the interest of peace. Even her attempt at a citizen's arrest of Silver was just to hide him and then ferry him away.

(How the hell did four trained men lose to an old guy and a cripple? Where'd she get her goons???)

reply

We'll for one he's Israel hands a major pirate.. Two... I don't think she was expecting a fight.. Just to take him and keep him safe... I think fandom has always hated max and treated her unfairly for decisions that most sane people would make.. Except to me when it comes to Eleanor... She's a fool for that girl.

reply

Yeah, major pirate--not ninja warrior superhero. And if she wasn't expecting a fight, she wouldn't have brought four muscular and armed men. Ah, never mind. It's TV magic. Nice fight scene.

Fully agree about Max, though.

"What am I, if I spend my days pleading for a return to civility and then do dark things under the cover of night?"

reply

That old guy is clearly a tough old git. You don't live that long without being a cunning, dangerous sob with a bit of luck thrown in for good measure.

The men she had with her expected no trouble and underestimated who they were dealing with. Yeah Silver and the scarred old guy were outnumbered, but they fought what looked like a bunch of rookies. All the real fighters from Nassau are either with the pirates or dead.

Or some took the pardons last season

reply

True. But her guards seemed very calm, thinking it was an easy exchange. But whatever, you can't kill off all the main cast!

reply

That 'tough old git' was Teach's second until Vane took his place. Silver also said that Flint described Israel as one of the deadliest men Nassau ever knew. Except for maybe two or three people, everyone on the island would be a rookie compared to Israel.

reply

This is such garbage. Max and Eleanor have every right to choose their own destiny.

Let's see... The crew of The Ranger beat and raped Max for how long? And they murdered Eleanor's father. It's not surprising that these ladies would rather side with England.

Unlike Richard, Eleanor has always done her best to clean up Nassau and keep rapists and murderers from prowling the streets. She was most interested in keeping the peace as well, in season 2 she tried desperately to prevent a war between Flint and Vane. She did not want the fort damaged. She wanted to make sure Nassau had a means to defend itself from an invasion.

MisandryMermaid, I'm going to miss your crazy rants

But I'm with you on this one.

From a "yo, ho, pirate's life for me" standpoint, those gals are traitors. Looking at it objectively, the two women's actions make sense.

reply

I don't think my "brand" of commentary would be welcomed anywhere else. ๎€…

I think Max just wants to be done with all this *beep* Hell all she wanted in season 1 was to run off with Eleanor with some gold and live a happy life for once. Though everyone wants this damn revolutionary war.

The main thing that bothered me is how they failed to kill him. Like I'm sorry....you have multiple men with GUNS on one guy. How do you mess up a fight that bad, I was rolling my eyes so hard XD
