RE: Nicholas "Nick" Burkhardt - syscrash - 01-02-2017 Quote:This is true of most Drama. The vast majority of arrests made in TV cop shows and movies would probably be thrown out before they ever made it to a trial.To over come this conflict most of these shows find a way to get a confession. But when you add super natural abilities forcing a confession make it seem more ludicrous then dealing with the problems based on the groups way of handling justice. RE: Nicholas "Nick" Burkhardt - FaceInTheCrowd - 01-02-2017 Most of the confessions wouldn't hold up either. Not that that's anything new, remember all those Perry Masons in the 60s where the guilty person always made an emotional confession on the stand? Never happens in real life. The most common resolution on Grimm seems to be the killer dying while trying to kill Nick and Hank. RE: Nicholas "Nick" Burkhardt - syscrash - 01-02-2017 Of the cases I can only think of two times some one has gone to jail. Either killed by accident, or while attacking Nick. There have been a few where they where killed by someone else. The verrat are the only ones Nick has actually attacked first. The lochness was the only one he ordered to be executed.

The article "The Dark Side of the Grimm Fairy Tales" at: http://www.history.com/news/the-dark-side-of-the-grimm-fairy-tales Provides multiple examples of of Grimm's tales with themes that include "Premarital sex, Graphic violence, Child abuse, Anti-Semitism, Incest, and Wicked mothers." You can click on the link and read them all. I'll show one and let you read the others: Quote:Premarital sexEnjoy! N G RE: Nicholas "Nick" Burkhardt - brandon - 01-02-2017 In the true story of" little red riding hood " she is eaten by the Wolf.in the story of the frog and princess the spell is broken when the princess tosses the frog against the door.there is no kiss. I think the writers have read those versions, not children' s. The "Grimm Brothers" did not compile their stories for children,but it was they who ended up reading them. For them these stories were the folklore of the towns.

But that term, 'premarital sex', was not something that was a part of the tale. In the tale it's called something completely different, like joy and pleasure. What you are doing is looking at the activity and putting a modern term to it. They say it's joy and pleasure. You say it's premarital sex. That's why the concept of 'it's a fantasy, anything goes' is not something I agree with. I've never seen anyone really fully explain what they mean by that. What I read from the poster is that he/she has done what we all do. In other words, they've put their own spin on the story. It may have something to do with what the writers are trying to show us, it might not. Since the bozos behind Grimm are really not all that forthcoming, I tend to think we all just put our own spin on it. I had a friend who wrote a poem once about a bee and a flower. I have no idea where the poem was published, but she said she had all gotten kinds of theories about the poem from people who read it. People kept looking at the poem and tried to glean a reason from it. None of them were correct. It was simply a poem about a bee and a flower. Have you ever watched a movie and the clues were right there in front of you and you completely missed them? The Sixth Sense was loaded with the color red. The director associated the color red with Cole, the little boy who sees ghosts. The color red has a lot of connotations. However, I cannot remember what the color was supposed to represent with regard to Cole. I just remember the director's commentary about it. I've watched that movie a thousand times and still miss most of the scenes that associate Cole with that color. So you have a poem that means what it says and a movie that doesn't always mean what it says. I guess it's all in the eye of the beholder, isn't it?

It was written by Jesse Greenspan: New Guy, you still haven't reported anything that isn't "in the eye of the beholder". The point I was making is that the Grimm brothers didn't refer to premarital sex as such. To them, it wasn't premarital sex, it was joy and pleasure. Some people frown on premarital sex. They did not. They wouldn't have referred to it as joy and pleasure if they frowned on it. Since neither of the Grimm brothers is around to confirm or deny Ms. Greenspan's findings, why would I contact her? It's still her spin on their writings, isn't it? RE: Nicholas "Nick" Burkhardt - brandon - 01-26-2017 It seems that Nick likes the most that the woman takes the initiative.? As with Adalind and Juliette. I do not know if he would have liked the kiss of Ariel. What do you think.

David Greenwalt & Jim Kauf talk Grimm’s final season “Here’s a problem I’d wish on any show or creator: the only little bit of acting advice that I have ever had to give David Giuntoli was, ‘Quit being so damned decent because right now, in this season, you are not you, the most decent actor I have ever met in my life. You’re a cop and you’re gonna be mean to that woman so show some anger’.” https://www.scifinow.co.uk/news/lucifer-season-3-gets-the-go-ahead-from-fox/ |
