  • A deep dive into Callum and Rayla's relationship, exploring their connection to each other and to primal magic. A video essay about what it is that gives Callum wings. What is it about "Raylum" that works so well?
    References are made in the video to "Arcane - League of Legends" as well as "The Matrix"

    Once again a lovely video essay. The relationship between Rayla and Callum is really sweet.
    Arcane has set me on a path to a number of very good series, The Dragon Prince among them. That being said, I'll start watching season 4 now. 😊

      Thank you! Arcane has definitely open my scope too, it's a new world post Arcane! 🤩 But the Dragon Prince is also a favourite, I hope season 4 will be as good as the first three!

    Thank you for this video Tilda Owen. Once again, you talk about things that we viewers didn't think about before. Especially with how Callum sprout wings in order to rescue Rayla. You did it so well I can almost compare it to other instances or moments in other movies and TV shows. For suggestions, you can do The Dragon Prince himself, Zym, Ezran, Soren, Claudia, Viren and Aarovos for analysis of their character, personality, desires and motivations.

      Thanks a lot! Yes, that image with the wings is so full of meaning! And if I had to choose myself, I'd analyse Rayla some more, I love her. Or Amaya and Janai, if their story is handled well (which I'm not sure it will...)

    Hello! Thank you for creating another thoughtful video. I have to say I absolutely adore your calm voice and witty humor. And that you give your video essays a lot of charm. I am curious as to how season 4 will write the Raylum relationship, and hopefully your future video about it. I wish you a good day or evening, and that you give yourself a deserved rest

      Thank you so much! I had some technical issues last night that dragged out the release, and I just found out that I mixed up the colours of yin and yang! 🤦🏼‍♀️ So yes, I need a break! 😂
      I'm glad you like my style! I try to be very personal and yet also remain professional in my methods of analysis and interpretation 😊
      I'm very curious about season 4 as well, have only seen two episodes so far, and it hasn't really picked up yet... And my conservative side is unsatisfied with the new looks, but I guess I'll get used to them...
      Good day to you too!

    Honestly, I have my reservations about this relationship. And I've never been invested in it, as I'm one of the few who sees or saw them more as friends rather than a romantic couple. However, your knack for witty analysis has once again made me see what more there was to appreciate to the story or events at hand. Congrats and I look forward to whatever else you post about the show going forward.

      Thank you! I like Rayllum, because they have built something from scratch, but I prefer the first three seasons... The following two have been rather disappointing, so much that I don't feel their connection anymore. Sad! And also why I probably won't be making many more videos about the Dragon Prince (unless the last two seasons improve significantly!)

    I can't believe you're doing a video for the Dragon Prince (My 2nd favorite animated show) I was alos hooked on this show before Arcane. 3 years was worth the wait for season 4. The Dragon Prince is the type of show that progressively gets better each season like Avatar the Last Airbender.

      Yes, if something goes wrong all sorts of possibilities arise, very good point! If Rayla hadn't failed her mission, if she hadn't shown compassion/mercy, then the cycle of violence would have escalated!
      And sometimes you can only truly know something, if you know its opposite... One of the reasons why Rayla and Callum are so good together ❤️

    Black magic representation here the same like blood magic in the avatar last airbender. it's gets power from the death.
    I think that the science can be creative or destructive depended on the source and the source of people's motivativation. We can see it in Arcane too.

      Yes, I agree, use/misuse of power, magic/technology is definitely a theme that Arcane has in common with the Dragon Prince!
      And there are also many things that Vi and Caitlyn have in common with Callum and Rayla, the yin-yang is also relevant to use for them, but not as much as for Raylum...

    Great vid :) to me Rayla has always been a really strong character but I was wanting a bit more from Callum (as a character I thought he was a little flat) in season 1, seasons 2 & 3 really developed him and their relationship well though and I absolutely love them together! They’re probably the only straight couple that I really care a lot about haha. Very excited for season 4! Hopefully we see them together again soon 😭

    • @tildaowen
      @tildaowen  Год назад +2

      Yes, the male characters really came into their own in seasons 2 and 3, not just Callum but also Soren 😊 Yes, this "straight" pairing is also one of my favourites, precisely because they have swapped so many gender characteristics and in general are really likeable without being perfect (like Vi and Caitlyn)
      If Amaya and Janai are developed going forward, I definitely think I'll look into them, but I fear they've skipped all the good stuff! (I haven't seen more than one episode of season 4 yet..)

      Arcane did a wonderful job with the pacing of Caitlyn and Vi's romantic journey! Let's hope it doesn't turn into Moonlighting (I think we're from the same generation), but I actually think the likelihood of that is little, considering how well written season 1 of Arcane is!
