You never know if a girl's gonna say 'yes', or if she's gonna laugh in your face and pull out your still-beating heart and crush it into the ground with her heel.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
What was it? I see no reason why a reasonable person wouldn't think it was some sort of grappling hook. I saw the movie twice and still couldn't figure out what the hell it was.

I think it was a giant spear-like thing.

That's right - it was like a harpoon wasn't it? So functionally not entirely outside the realm of grappling hooks; just minus any hook part.

That's what I saw.
I came away thinking that the impalement wasn't necessarily targeted. Like that big honkin' log just happened to come through the windscreen...making the death all the more ignoble. Unhappy accident in a sea of violence.

me too. It felt like Joss was saying, "no one is safe here. They all might die."

I think that was the point. I know I spent the rest of the movie thinking "Joss is a fucker. They're going to lose! THEY'RE ALL GONNA DIE!"
'cause, you know...Joss is a fucker sometimes.

A wise, brilliant, self-actualized fucker...but fucker none the less.
