Why didn't the poison kill the earth?

it feels really cheap to me that Steven can just heal this damage as if it's no big deal. We've seen what injectors can do and it's already been established that the damage it inflicts is permanent. I get that it's not the same deal here since Spinel wasn't incubating any gems, but it's still life-destroying fluid likely the same they use for creating gems just without the Kindergarten aspect.

imagine if they actually had the brass balls to kill Greg. like, see how well steven takes spinel learning nothing and trying to fuck off with the diamonds after finding out in the middle of the "your not her butt id still fuck you" that greg drove his van into heaven

>We've seen what injectors can do and it's already been established that the damage it inflicts is permanent
The injector's we're familiar with are sucking the life energies out of the Life-force of the Earth and transferring it into the Gems. It makes sense that it cannot be healed because it all went into making the Gems.

In this case it was just poison that was killing the organic life. That's perfectly within the bounds of healing powers to heal things that have been poisoned to death.

Are you retards forgetting that Steven got a permanent buff from fusing with his dad, Greg "the Murdercock" Demayo? This is like shonen anime logic 101 people.

The concentration of the poison wasn't accounting for the Cluster comprising like 99% of Earth's mass.

Even expired poison isn’t good for you. It’s just probably not as potent as it once might have been.

Sugar doesnt understand it would seep into the soil then spread.

It's glowing pink space poison. It's going to do what the writers want it to do.

It may take time. Also they blew up the injector, so everything is puddled in Beach City. Really, Lapis should be able to water-bend it into space without losing too much of the ocean in the process.

it just poisoned the delmarva area beaches and leads into modern day

Because the writers want HIGH STAKE without actually following through and having consequences for anything, like every single other conflict in the show.

Bad writing.

Maybe the chemical composition is like skunk spray or bombardier beetle spray. It's two separate chemicals that need to mix together.

I thought it was because the injector exploded

You cant call everything you dont like bad writing

I mean instead of slowly injecting the poison like it was supposed to, Spinel made it fucking creampie beach city by speeding up the process. It makes sense that it wouldn't destroy the Earth like it was supposed to if it wasn't even injected properly.

We literally see the poison flood the town in waves... I don't think that was supposed to happen.

Maybe forcing it in all at once fucked up the spread?
Like, if it had just poured in slowly it would've had time to spread properly.
But since it went in all at once it just kinda pooled around Beach City.
Best theory I can come up with.

worst part of the movie
never had any stakes, seeing the injector expend the rest of its goo was suppose to be a big "oh fuck!" moment but then Steven just pecks the group no problem while Garnet cracks jokes
weak, I'm getting Cluster flashbacks

>No, my favorite series doesn't have bad writing, the character was just wrong.
The amount of shit SUfags come up with to cope with their shit show is astounding.

Also applies too

Why kiss the ground when they can just use the giant fucking rose fountain?

It was just a metaphor for Spinel's toxicity. Once that went away the poison was no big deal.

Maybe, hear me out... The writers for Steven Universe are hacks...

I mean this is the same group of people that though Rose being PD and White Diamond Deserving Redemption were good things.

Everytime, and i mean EVERY. SINGLE. TIME. i come to Yea Forums to chill and see what's going on i see atleast 7 fucking Steven Universe threads

what person/series are you quoting?

They couldn't even maim him due to having already established that Steven's healing powers work on anything and everything. It really takes a lot of tension out of your storytelling.

We don't know how much damage was done. A lot of it was actually injected into the ground, and the Cluster isn't too far away. It looks similar to the shit they used in the gem injectors that sucked up organic matter to create the gems in the kindergartens. I wonder if Sugar's recent interview where she mentioned something about consequences of the movie carrying on to the next season. I'm just speculating, but shit could go down.

Wouldnt a gas version of this shit be a better lifewiper?

Welcome to our thread. Please enjoy your stay.

I was honestly expecting that the Cluster would play some part in the movie's conclusion; like it was going to clean up the poison due to it being near the core, but it never happened.

nope, life survives on the bottom; in caves, under the sea, etc

welcome to Yea Forums

Anyone saying "cause it blew up" is a dumbass, more than half that shit was injected and even then it should have done something.

>Poison designed to kill organic life
>Injected into the planet's center and spreading from there according to the chart.
Maybe gems would think that's bad since they're rocks, but organic life basically just clings to the upper level of the crust. It was probably upsetting for everyone in the immediate vicinity, but most of the poison was seemingly wasted. The injector probably wasn't going to do much past contaminating the injection point and the surrounding areas where the poison spilled over due to the fact that Spinel was basically injecting poison into magma past a certain point. What's it going to do? Make magma lethal to organic life now? Kill the organic magma? She'd want to spread it over the crust, not dump it into the molten bowels of the planet where it'll be disintegrated. Plus, anything injected past the mantle is probably not going to see the surface again.

>people posting random headcanon rationales
The answer is that the movie was supposed to have another half hour. They needed the stakes but had no time to address them. It's why the whole third act is so rushed

We can only speculate how they were supposed to have dealt with it then. My money up until the last minute was Steven fusing with the entire planet and everyone on it, NGE style, and just spitting the poison into space or something

>It come tumbling down, tumbling down

BAD WRITING

Plot contrivance. Blowing up the injector should only have made it worse.

yeah, thank god we are not near the ocean where that shit can spread all across the world

The garden is on a broken lifeless world, probably due to the use of the injector. It would make sense to make the planet sterile before creating the garden so that native life would not interfere.

I want to FUCK her

handsome user like you deserves better than that little goblin

But user, Pearl's too good for me

And if you want to go full deepest lore, the barnacle thing pictured was probably not a life form originally intended to be in the garden, and is probably a remnant of the life that existed before the injector was used.

And you can't ignore than no explanation was given as to why an injector potent enough to kill all organic life on earth didn't even raze a small town

Well consider that the gems called spawning areas "kindergartens" which were barren, lifeless hellholes filled with infant gems sucking all the natural resources from it.

The gems have a fucked up view of things. And they were particularly dismissive of PD, so they probably sent her to a very distant dead planet and built her garden there.

She shoulda stuck to her porno work

It was a pretty retarded Idea. I bet most of the gunk got injected into some of earth's mantle and got destroyed as a result.

Injecting half of it would still do considerable damage even if it doesn't outright kill you.

Kindergarten injectors create gems by injecting a liquid that in some respects works like an amniotic fluid, facilitating the exchange of nutrients and minerals from the surrounding soil and forming into a gem. I assume this fluid is so exceptionally fluid in that it is able to pass between the gaps in the atomic lattices of solid earth, because the fluid when intejected in controlled quantities does not disturb the structure of the earth in which it is injected. Furthermore, this fluid can transfer back any relevant minerals to the growing gemstone, again without disturbing the structure of the earth. This fluid also kills and drains organic life, and its effects are seemingly permanent. Nothing biological can return to live there.

This would make the bio poison very dangerous because it would likely have similar liquid properties to gemstone fluid since its delivery system is identical. Obviously the fluid when injected all at once will disturb the local landmass but I am sure it would eventually seep into the ground and disperse.

His tiny little saliva particles were like AIDS and HIV to the anti-bio gloop, slowly infiltrating into its system and slowly neutralizing all functioning. But, you know, reversed, like his spit worked as an antidote moreso than a virus.

Remember, they showed a montage of progress that could have been anywhere from days, weeks, to months even (not sure about a whole year).

What if he just ended up hocking loogies into the rivers and pools of poison forming from the cracks in the earth? It probably sped the "healing process" up a bit. kissing the earth just sounds too gay

considering the way the drill constantly shifts in size - bet ya 5$ that the drill wasn't even supposed to be seen in half of the frames, but they were either too lazy to draw different new backgrounds, or somebody decided "if the drill isn't constantly there, then it's gonna be confusing! have it always be in the background"

It probably could've effortlessly ripped the injector out without spilling any more poison in the earth and chucked it into space.
Boom. Problem solved.

Specially for Spinel, she's a toon, goofy sideframes is effectively part and parcel of that.

When Spinel recalled the injector it also extracted all it could, which was most of it. At that point it had done essentially all the damage it ever would, as there was no longer any deep-injected mass of saturated biopoison to slowly spread throughout the rest of the Earth.

When she changed her mind and ordered it to resume injection, she ordered it to do it all in one blast as an immediate weapon against Steven (hoping to immediately kill him by direct contact with it). This resulted in all the biotoxin just accumulating on the surface (as can be seen with the suddenly spreading fissures full of biotoxin, which only appeared with this sudden total injection but not the gradual 70%+ injection), from where it was much more easily cleaned up. The cleanup most likely still significantly depleted their stock of healing liquid, from the Fountain, and the incident probably still had significant (but not completely catastrophic) irrecoverable impact on local and oceanic life.

Gems are all retards, as ever, for not having found any way to deal with it right at the start, of which there were many. They could have just intercepted and siphoned off the biopoison as it was injected, for example. Spinel trying to weaponize the injector in the way she did was pretty stupid, to begin with, and only worked at all because of how stupid the targets were.

Peridot even said it would only make it worse. It's why they couldn't get Lapis to lift it out through force.

well, not surprised but at least i was interested enough in what was happening i could at least not notice it

>tfw you realize the flowers in Spinel’s garden were forget me nots

Could a sworn she just dumped the rest of the poison out rather then let it spread across the planet

She said it's releasing at 5 cubic meters per hour, and that's enough to kill the earth in 41 hours. She's clearly an idiot.

nope, a firm handshake is all you get

No proof it was in the garden whatsoever

Out of all the flubs in the show this one isn’t really that bad because at least it was animated better than all the fight scenes in the show.

Yeah, that's pretty bad, but it was still a really fun scene and before this image the only thing I noticed was Spinel's legs and the Crystal Gems facing the wrong way.

Because Spinel did use it completely wrong as she's just a toy and not an assigned gem technician. Injector has to be used on the core.

I don't have a problem with the drill placement, but the last pics with spinel's legs disappearing and the CG's running backwards are pretty inexcusable.
