Angel (the series) Jasmine - Everybody's fool

[Redmoonlion6]

I think it would be great if they made a movie with buffy and angel both of there teams working together to fight evil and stuff like that or at least a mini series or something i mean they kept them alive with there graphic novels and comic books but it doesn't feel the same those actors brought those characters to life and made them awsome and i don't even think they make angel comic books anymore but they still make buffy comics and i've read some of them and there started to get weird.

[blackmind1992]

Wow, that song was perfect.

Just like Jasmine... (๏_๏)

[hedonism13]

I changed my fb religion to "Jasmine"

[Connerluver4]

I dont know how this is even possible. She looks alot older then her father Connor. Plus she is black, I'm not racist but Connor and cordy are both white. how did they have a black child that frankly looks older then her father and maybe even her mother? I never did understand that,

[ForeverMysterious]

Great video.

[swastikausa]

I would gladly worship gina torres any day that lawrence fishburne was out of town. She is ten times hotter than her stepdaughter.

[Constavlos]

i loved jasmine, her only flaw and untimately... her fall, was wanting to interfer with humanity.

[Magnovey]

The whole Jasmine idea has to be one of the most original in the entire sci-fi fantasy universe! Her origins, her conception and birth, her intentions to bring world peace yet considered to be antagonist. I really enjoyed the freshness of her character. :)

[karenbarlow20]

wow now i understand why connor finally flipped out at the end of season 4. Did you see the look on his face after he killed her. Geez. I gotta see that episode.

[HERESBECKYSTILL]

perfect song choice!

[axbepa]

who would win jasmine or glory?

[Death9215]

@axbepa Probably Glory. Glory was a Goddess, and honestly I think she was a bigger threat. Jasmine was a really weird villain, but yet she is someone we can relate to. I mean she wanted to bring world peace, and the only way to technically do that is to make everyone the same person. Without freedom of thought, there is no discrimination, no war, and for the first time everyone agrees on an individual thing. However, without freedom of thought, people can't be people, so it's complicated. :P

[tiemedown]

@Death9215 I found Jasmine to be more frightening, Glory wanted hell and violence and straight forward viciousness. Jasmine was maternal but also very Big Brother. Joss Whedon crafts the best villians

[Death9215]

@tiemedown For sure, he definitely does.

[tiemedown]

@Death9215 Is it sad and naive to wish that Whedon will bring back Angel

[Death9215]

@tiemedown Nope, not at all. The ending to the 5th season sucked. They were supposed to go on another season, but couldn't because the station didn't want them to anymore. Also it wouldn't be the same since Andy Hallett died in 2004.

[tiemedown]

@Death9215 I do miss Andy. The graphic novels would have made amazing scripts, apparently Angel becomes human, Gunn a vampire, Wesley trapped in Wolfram and Hart like Lilah, and Connor dies, they deserved more screen time, they were really starting to take off

[Death9215]

@tiemedown Yeah, although would have been interesting to see all that happen. Well, Wesley dies in the 5th season ending, so I guess he does end up like Lilah.

[CookieLovable]

@Death9215 Andy Hallett didn't die in 2004 he died in 2009

[Death9215]

@CookieLovable Oh well, doesn't matter what year he died, point is, the show wouldn't be the same without him.

[CookieLovable]

@Death9215 I agree

[583Willow]

I love angel!!!!

[Genesisuvnxt]

I wish they would put this show back on. Or at least make a movie starting with the endiing battle. and Illyria ABSOLUTELY MUST BE IN THE MOVIE!!!! I'm sad that the actor who playye as Lorne died not too long ago.

[1993MovieMan]

This song is perfect for a character as hypocritical and fake as Jasmine !

[1993MovieMan]

@chezkimo Why ? She was a hypocritical , cannibalistic control freak ! She got EXACTLY what she deserved !

[chezkimo]

@1993MovieMan

actually she wasn't hypocritical. she did want world peace for one reason or another. she never stated wheither it was for her or the world's benefit though. and she believed the end justified the means. remember just because she was evil dosen't mean she was wrong. evil people's actions can affect the world positively. but the thing that ultimately makes her a villain is that she did it for her own evil reasons and she took away free will.

[MrSasyB]

poor cordelia

[sexfanatic]

I keep thinking that the woman who played the role of Jasmine would of been a good STORM for X MEN

[dailyplanet354]

Yeah, i´m agree, Gina Torres looks way more powerfull and gracefull than Halle Berry.

[t5y665yrty56]

To hell with Zod i kneel before torres

[sillyasiantrixr4kidz]

this was a cool story line.

Honestly, if there was someone equivalent to Jasmine's character in our real world, it would be Oprah Winfrey. haha she's like, the biggest role model that a lot of people look up to. I wouldn't be surprised if she was Jasmine ahahha

[MagDuke]

Yup. I'd worship Zoe in a second, too. Gor-geous.

[t5y665yrty56]

well if youre gonna get anyone to play a creature of infinite loveliness let it be gina torres. Ive said it before and ill say it again. larence fishburne is the luckiest cat in Zion.

[shittybullshit]

brilliant storyline! it must have been so hard for Fred in the beginning :( and its really cool how in the end they don't really know whether they made the right choice or not!

[1993MovieMan]

@shittybullshit That`s what Angel`s all about ( and Buffy to a lesser degree ) : hard choices . Angelus put it best " Choices , the ones ya make , the ones ya don`t . Ooh and the consequences , those are always fun " .

[1993MovieMan]

@shittybullshit However , I think with Jasmine the Angel Investigations team did the right thing ! Humans are capable of working out their own problems , it just takes a little effort . Besides , Jasmine did not practice what she preached . She talked about " love " , " understanding " and " peace " BUT once Angel and the others escaped her control she showed clear hatred of them , ENCOURAGED her followers AS WELL as one non-follower to hate them and took sadistic glee in their pain !

[Genesisuvnxt]

I think the writers based Jasmine's character off of Oprah Winfrey.

[t5y665yrty56]

more likely beyonce

[1993MovieMan]

@Genesisuvnxt Only WAY older , EVEN MORE hypocritical and WAY MORE psychotic !

[moviefanatic777]

You did such a fantastic job with this video. Perfect song for what happened in the Jasmine episdoes! At 2:10 when Angel looks up and sees Jasmine for what she really is, the lyrics say "I know the truth now". That was absolutely perfect! gave me chills. Excellent editing!

[spacie21]

that was awesome! my older sister is about to watch the jasmine episodes for the first time! she's one of my fave "villians" cuz she isn't even REALLY a villian,it's such a cool idea. props to joss & the writers! and to you,this video rocked!

[1993MovieMan]

@spacie21 Um , Jasmine WAS a villain ! She took control of The Beast , possessed Cordy in order to do it with Connor and give birth to her physical form , took control of VIRTUALLY the ENTIRE human race , ate LIVE human beings, possessed VIRTUALLY the ENTIRE human race , and showed sadistic glee in the suffering of her enemies ( PRETTY MUCH anyone who escaped her control ) ! The " love " , " understanding " and " peace " thing WAS AN ACT ! She was in it PURELY for the control !

[wyrmhighking]

@1993MovieMan Of course she was in it purely for control. But it wasn't an act, she really thought she was giving peace and love to everyone. Which makes her more dangerous and terrifying villain.

[spacie21]

@1993MovieMan riiiiiiiiiiight. i just meant that she wasn't your average idea of a villian. she really did want all that world peace. she just wasn't going about it the right way.

[Laniandromeda]

Do you mean what happened in the comic book continuation, after Angel fought the Circle of the Black Thorn? Or what was happening to Connor in Season 5 when he wasn't with Angel?

[indskab]

Which season that connor Shows up when the destroyer comes out from the gate and attempts to kill Angel ?

[Laniandromeda]

We first seen Connor as a teenager near the end of Season 3, if that's what you're asking.

[indskab]

Yes yes when he cuts off the head of the destroyer that seeks Angel, yes that is what I'm asking for,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,but he continous in Season 4 ? Connor I mean.

[Laniandromeda]

Yes, he's a regular in season 4, and I believe makes a few appearances in Season 5, although I don't know for sure about how much he is in Season 5, since I just started watching it.

[indskab]

sure sure yeah yeah when Angel sacrifice his own son for the company.......yes you're right he will appear a few times in the begining and in the end when Angel foughts the monsters and I don't know there nam....but what's happening after that does they died in vain or lived...?

[wyrmhighking]

1.) That huge demon wasn't The Destroyer. Connor is The Destroyer.

2.) It was season 3.

[indskab]

what ??? you mean that monster wasn't the destroyer so it was Connor !.....holy shit ! I forgot that..........so it means Connor is angery for his father because he let him gone or because of his foster father ? cuz maybe he taunt him against his own father.

[wyrmhighking]

Yes, Connor is The Destroyer. All the demons in Quor'Toth call him that. And yeah, he was a very angry 17 year old boy.

[1993MovieMan]

@wyrmhighking I hate Connor ! Those who like him , I`m sorry but UNTIL Angel memory-wiped him though the memories came back sooner than Angel expected , the kid was EVERY BIT as selfish and hypocritical as his " daughter " Jasmine ( I use quotes because he and Cordy ONLY gave birth to her physical form , the essence of " The Blessed Devourer " , the being who would become Jasmine , existed since the Dawn Of Time ) !

[wyrmhighking]

@1993MovieMan I'm pretty sure everyone hated Connor.

[SmileyyBabyy14]

@wyrmhighking Connor was a little bitch and he annoyed me the whole time he was there. When him and Cordelia had sex I was disgusted. That was his freakin' mother.

[wyrmqueen]

@SmileyyBabyy14 That was the point. It was supposed to be disgusting. It was to show that there was something wrong with Cordelia because Cordelia would never do something like that. It was to also show the rivalry between Connor and Angel and how very Oedipal the whole thing was.

[SmileyyBabyy14]

@wyrmqueen It would've been easier if Connor just died. I didn't like him. Most of the characters on the show annoyed me. I only watched for Angel, the green man, that smart white guy and later on Spike.

[wyrmqueen]

@wyrmqueen First of all, yes he started out annoying but he became a better character in Season 5 and in the comic books. Second, you can't say how annoying Angel characters are when one of your favorite characters is Spike, the most annoying piece of shit character to ever grace the Buffyverse. Third, Angel is a way better show than Buffy, most Buffy fans are either gay guys who think they're girls, or lesbians and feminist into forced female empowerment.

[SmileyyBabyy14]

@wyrmqueen Spike surely was my favorite character. So what? By the way, where did I say watch Buffy? Buffy was corny as hell and I watched Angel b/c I liked him. P.S Most of the characters are still annoying.

[wyrmqueen]

@SmileyyBabyy14 Your opinion is invalid because Spike is your favorite character. He's a piece of shit. An annoying fucker that the writers shoved down our throats because they all wanted to suck James Marsters' tiny cock.

[SmileyyBabyy14]

@wyrmqueen If my opinion is so invalid then why are you still replying to me? I don't understand. Are you butthurt because I said Spike is my favorite? Oh well. I still like Spike.

[wyrmqueen]

@SmileyyBabyy14 Because you're a moron. And I'm replying to you because I enjoy deriding Spike fans and their idiotic liking of an idiotic character.

[SmileyyBabyy14]

@wyrmqueen Nah, the truth is that you're so angry about your pathetic life that you actually think it's fun to come online and demean others opinions. It's alright. I won't tell anybody.

[wyrmqueen]

@SmileyyBabyy14 Also, the fact that you put Spike above any other character on Angel shows how stupid you really are.

[SmileyyBabyy14]

@wyrmqueen Yes, I'm SO stupid because of a tv show. Also where did I say I like Spike better than every other character on Angel?

[wyrmqueen]

@SmileyyBabyy14 Thinking Spike is less annoying than any other character on Angel isn't an opinion, it's lunacy. Go suck James Marsters little dick.

[SmileyyBabyy14]

@wyrmqueen I'm a lunatic but you're slinging insults at me because I said I like Spike? Sure. I think I'll pass on "sucking James Marsters little dick." The fact you keep bringing up his cock is disturbing.

[wyrmqueen]

@SmileyyBabyy14 Point to me where I said you said "better"?

[wyrmqueen]

@SmileyyBabyy14 Umm, you said he's your favorite. YOU said it. Dumbass Spike fan.

[SmileyyBabyy14]

@wyrmqueen He wasn't my only favorite character. You said I liked him better than EVERY character which is not true. Maybe I should repost my favorites again. You obviously didn't read my comment very well; Angel, Spike, Wesley and Lorne. Ahh, and there you go again insulting me over an opinion. Does who I like on a tv show affect your daily life in anyway? You're so angry.

[Connerluver4]

@SmileyyBabyy14 thats a little harsh plus if u paid attention to the show u would know that Cordy wasnt Connors mom, Darla was, You would also know that Cordy wasnt herself and that she seduced Connor, SHE made the first move. What teenage boy would say no to sex, He didnt think of her as his mother anyway. He was stolen when he was a baby. yeah them sleeping together was gross but it wasnt really Connor's fault. The actress playing cordy was pregnant and so they put it in the show.

[SmileyyBabyy14]

@Connerluver4 Doesn't matter. I still don't like Connor and he still was a little bitch.

[Connerluver4]

@SmileyyBabyy14 i am simply stating facts. I know everything about Connors character i am an angel fanatic. I have angel season 2,3,4,and 5 so i know what i'm talking about. And this vid is Jasmine not Connor. I dont know what ur problem with Connor is. But if u dont like dont watch vids that have him in them.

I personally hate Buffy. Buffy didnt deserve Angel or Spike.

[SmileyyBabyy14]

@Connerluver4 I didn't like Buffy either and I don't watch episodes with Connor in them. I skipped a whole season because of him. I was responding to a comment another user made about Connor so that's why.

[Connerluver4]

@SmileyyBabyy14 o ok.

[adamsjenny2]

Great Job!

[TheDevilOfKimon]

I'd would have loved to have seen Illyria and Jasmine go at it. Old One UFC action at its best

[wyrmhighking]

Jasmine is actually a Power That Be. Which would make her a deity. It would still be a good match though.

[1993MovieMan]

@wyrmhighking Technically , she`s in her own words a " Power That Was " as The " Powers That Be " rejected her radical ideas due to their vow of non-interference in human affairs ! The " Powers " MAY BE A-Holes at times but ATLEAST they respect Free Will UNLIKE Jasmine ! Ultimately , she was just in it for the control !

[wyrmhighking]

@1993MovieMan She's still a "Power".

[1993MovieMan]

@wyrmhighking Also considering she took control of The Beast , is able to possess people and is worshipped by several demonic species , I`m PRETTY SURE Jasmine`s ATLEAST PART Demon !

[wyrmhighking]

@1993MovieMan The only thing part demon about her is her physical body because both Connor and Cordelia are part demons. But her true self, she's a god. I have the DVD sets of the series and the writers have said she's a fallen god.

[koningfarao]

1:32 fckin creepy

[RowdyAldazar]

OMG...I was SO hoping someone had posted a vid like this cos the very first time I heard the song I thought of this story arc from Angel...it just fit so perfectly that still to this day, every time I hear the song I think of the Jasmine storyline

[5BOROCLIFF]

back then when i was young and i saw her true face i couldnt sleep for days lol

[ysocutout6624]

i love the song and the tv show

[HpFreakz]

Wow The song is Pefect!!

[LunaHexer]
